What can we do for AKB48 from the Great East Japan Earthquake in two years?
This time, the AKB Kousagi Dojo visited Ishinomaki, Miyagi Prefecture.
It's not finished yet.
There are no buildings yet.
This is the first time I've come to Ishizomaki.
It's a project for someone in AKB48.
AKB48 has started a project for someone right after the disaster.
They have been supporting the disaster area.
On March 11 this year, we visited 10 disaster areas and held a mini-live.
We received a lot of courage and hope from the smiles of those who met us there.
At the site, everyone helps each other, takes each other's hand, and lives their daily lives.
And there is a feeling of gratitude.
But the word thank you is usually embarrassing and hard to say.
So we will help you convey your feelings of gratitude.
This time I met a little rabbit in the second grade of junior high school who wants to say thank you to his mother.
We are going to the nursery where my mother works.
Are you okay?
Yes.
Do you know the person who is always on duty?
Yes.
It is better to convey the feeling of gratitude with a surprise.
We plan a big surprise strategy to convey gratitude to the nursery and my mother.
One, two, three, four.
Wow, did you remember?
While my mother is going out, we will dance the dance we practiced together.
And then, the feelings of gratitude that Kousage conveys.
Let it reach your mother's heart.
This week's narration is in charge of Team K, Asuka Kuramochi.
Is this a station?
It's a station, isn't it?
Ishinomaki Station?
We are in front of the station in the center of Ishinomaki.
Here, we are looking for Kousage who wants to convey the feelings of gratitude.
Is he a student?
Is he a boy?
His eyes are big.
He's wearing a jacket.
I'm really scared.
I'm scared too.
I'm shy and I'm not good at this kind of thing.
Can I say I'm sorry?
Yes, you can.
In my place, Shimada and Mariagi, please.
Are you free now?
I'd like to talk to you a little bit.
It's about a minute.
It's a program called AKB Kousage Dojo.
Is there anyone who wants to say thank you?
I think it's my parents.
Why do you think it's your parents?
There was an earthquake.
They helped me with my tuition and other financial needs.
I'm grateful for that.
It's my mother.
She supports me and takes care of me.
My grandfather.
He always supports me with a smile.
I was able to go to university.
There is no one who can say thank you or help you.
I'm still a little bit stuck.
That's right.
I wish I had a younger child.
A child who is in elementary school or junior high school.
If I had a child who is in junior high school or junior high school.
Isn't that child young?
Excuse me.
How old are you now?
I'm in the second year of junior high school.
What is your name?
Aihara Ken.
I was looking for someone who wants to say thank you.
Is there anyone you want to say thank you to?
Well...
It's my mother.
Mother.
Why do you want to say thank you to your mother?
I'm busy now.
Because of the earthquake.
But I'm in the volleyball team.
The train hasn't recovered yet.
So I have to take a car to get there.
How long does it take to get there?
It takes three hours by bus.
Three hours?
By the way, does your mother have a job?
My mother is a teacher, but she's also a director.
She's also a director, but she's also a director.
That's right.
I think Ken is in a good mood.
Can you say thank you to your mother?
I'm a little embarrassed.
If you're alone, we'll support you as much as we can.
By all means.
Well, if that's the case, I look forward to working with you.
I look forward to working with you.
This time, Ken Aihara, a junior high school student, will help the Kosegi Dojo convey his gratitude.
He is a sportsman who plays volleyball with his three siblings.
He is also a captain.
While Ken is busy, he will help his mother, who supports him in volleyball.
But what kind of person is Ken's mother?
First of all, let's go to the kindergarten where Ken's mother works alone.
Hello.
Why did you close it?
It's just a peephole.
This is illegal entry.
Hello.
Why did you run away?
Excuse me.
Are you the director?
Yes, I am.
Nice to meet you.
This is Kayomi Aihara, Ken's mother, who is the director of the orphanage.
She will tell you that she came here for another project.
I'm planning to make everyone smile.
It's sudden, but I'd like to ask you to help us as an orphanage.
From now on?
Yes, I will do anything.
I'm looking forward to working with you.
Nice to meet you.
The child is sleeping.
I'm sorry I couldn't sleep.
We decided to keep the real reason a secret and let the orphanage help us.
What time is it now?
It's time to read a picture book before going to bed.
If you don't mind, could you read a picture book to the children?
By all means.
A picture book?
I've never read it.
Do you all know about us before you go to bed?
I don't know.
I know.
Who knows Tomochin?
I know.
Who knows AKB48?
I know.
You are the first member.
It seems that everyone wants to read the picture book faster than AKB48.
The person who reads the picture book is Mariage.
Please read it well.
There are three goats. There is a bridge on the valley side on the way up. If you cross the bridge...
Yagi-san.
I know.
If you don't cross the bridge, you won't be able to read the picture book.
Under the bridge...
It was an unfamiliar reading, but everyone listened intently.
Who is Tororu?
Kim Pachinston. The story is over.
Thank you very much.
Did you all have fun?
Yes.
What did you like better, reading or reading?
The older sister.
Oh, the older sister.
So cute.
Thank you.
Bye-bye.
After enjoying the picture book, it's time for lunch.
Helping everyone to line up their futons.
Are you all right?
Yes, it's a big one.
I wonder if it's big enough for everyone.
Currently, there are 29 actors.
During lunchtime, the director's mother was watching over them.
They look really busy.
Thank you very much.
It's a surprise.
Yagi-san, Yagi-san, let's go.
Wake up, quickly.
The children will wake up.
I came up with a good idea.
I'll talk to everyone outside so that my mother won't hear me.
What is it?
Instead of saying thank you to the director,
I'd like to give a surprise.
I thought it would be better to express my gratitude to the audience.
I got to know the cast members.
I want to do something with the cast members and my friends.
I want to sing with them.
Everyone says they like AKB48.
I want to sing with them.
After that, I want Ken-kun to write a letter saying thank you.
I want Ken-kun to write a letter.
That's right. When Ken-kun says thank you to his mother, he makes a surprise plan.
Let's do our best.
With a small voice.
The plan is that the members are split into two and one of them takes his mother outside the nursery.
In the meantime, the two people left in the nursery practice dancing to the songs of AKB48.
When his mother came home, they all danced and made a surprise.
After that, Ken-kun read a letter of gratitude.
I hope it goes well.
Here, he said thanks to his mother and said goodbye once.
Then, he explained the surprise strategy to Ken- kun.
Sing a song of AKB48 with all the actors.
After that, Ken-kun wrote a letter.
Yes.
Is it okay?
I'll do my best.
Please.
We'll do our best, too.
We'll do our best.
Thank you.
For the surprise, he will contact his grandparents who live away from the disaster.
Nice to meet you.
I'm doing a program called Kousagi Dojo of AKB48.
Hello, I'm Dojo Itomo.
I think you should come.
I'll go now.
Thank you very much.
Grandmothers will also come.
Let's go to the nursery.
Thank you mother.
The big surprise operation starts.
Here, we will be divided into two teams, the team that takes the mother out of the nursery and the team that prepares for the surprise in the nursery.
Let's start the operation with me and Tomo-chan team.
Take the mother out of the nursery.
I wonder if I can take her out without being suspicious.
It's fun.
It's like hiding.
The teacher came again.
The teacher told me that she is living in a temporary house now.
Are you living with your family now?
Yes, that's right.
I would like to ask you about it in detail, so if you don't mind, can I come to your house?
The temporary house is small and dirty, but is it okay?
If you don't mind.
I don't clean.
The mother kindly accepted it.
The target time is 2 hours.
She will stay at home until evening.
Did you go?
You went, didn't you?
Can you go?
Can we go too?
The team of Mariagi Shimada and Ken are on standby for the surprise operation.
Hello.
Excuse me.
Teacher, can I talk to you for a moment?
Yes.
You know Ken, right?
Yes.
Here, she talks to the teacher of the nursery teacher and asks for cooperation.
I thought it was good.
Is it okay?
It's okay.
Thank you very much.
I want to say thank you to the teacher Aihara, but can you cooperate with me?
It's okay.
Is it okay?
It seems that all the actors will cooperate, so let's listen to the surprise dance song.
Do you know this song?
I know.
You don't know?
Then, can you remember the song?
OK.
It's the most difficult part.
When Ken's mother comes back, they will dance this song and surprise her.
Let's practice together.
Can you do it?
I wonder if I can do it.
Everyone is dancing well. The children are full of energy.
Meanwhile, Tom and I went out with my mother.
We went to a temporary house with four families.
And we asked Ken-kun about it.
How old is the youngest child?
14 years old.
Is he a junior high school student?
Yes, he is.
It must be the most difficult time for you.
Yes, it is.
Recently, the anti-war period is very long.
Do you have a lot of fights?
Last week, from Friday to Wednesday, he didn't let me talk to him.
What was the reason?
I think the reason is that my mother is annoyed with the practice of my favorite volleyball.
I don't know if Ken-kun had a fight with Ken-kun until recently.
I don't know how Ken-kun feels about the anti-war period.
Ma, it seems to be lonely somewhere. Mom, you look lonely.
At that time, at the nursery where Ken-kun was practicing dancing,
My grandfather and grandmother came.
Ken-kun's grandfather and grandmother who contacted me earlier came to me.
Thank you very much.
In addition, in the evening, I talked to the parents who came to pick up the children at the nursery and asked them to cooperate.
It's okay.
Really? Can you please dance and cooperate with me?
Thank you very much.
And Ken-kun is good at dancing.
Ken-kun is good at ballet, but he seems to be a little bad at dancing.
I wonder if I can make it to the surprise. Good luck!
And it's time for my mother to go back to the nursery.
Oh, I only have a little time left.
At this point, Ken-kun writes a letter of gratitude to his mother.
I close the curtain so that I can't see it from the outside, and wait for my mother with the lights off.
Are you all right? OK!
When you come to the nursery, the lights will turn on.
Thank you, mother. The surprise operation is finally on.
A mother who doesn't know anything has returned to the nursery.
I closed the curtain.
Do you always close the curtain?
The curtain is open.
Can I come in?
What?
Music start!
Will the surprise go well?
In this AKB Kousagi Dojo, the members went to Ishinomachi, Miyagi to support Kousagi who want to express their gratitude.
There, they met Ken Aihara, a junior high school student.
The members wanted to express their gratitude to his mother who works in the nursery with a surprise.
While I, Kuramochi, and Tom-chan team took my mother out of the nursery,
the remaining Shimada Mariage team practiced the surprise dance with the children when my mother came home.
After that, we closed the curtains so that they couldn't be seen from the outside, turned off the lights, and got ready.
Thank you, mother. The surprise operation is finally on.
As we get closer and closer, we are also full of high tension.
The curtains are closed.
Is the curtain always closed?
The curtains are open.
Oh, I see.
You can go first.
Can I go first?
Yes, go ahead.
Thank you for your challenge.
Music start!
What is it?
1, 2, 3, 4!
Ah, you got it!
I want you
I need you
I love you
In my head
My heart is pounding with music
It seems that Ken-kun has noticed that his mother is among everyone here.
I'm so lucky to be able to feel that way
With a feeling of gratitude, I'll sing and dance with everyone full of energy
Thank you very much!
I was surprised!
There was one more thing that surprised me.
I received a letter from Ken.
Ken, please read it.
Thank you for making my volleyball cream cake and breakfast every day, even though my mother is always busy.
I'm still not in a good state due to the influence of the earthquake, but let's do our best together so that we can get back to the previous state of the earthquake.
I think there will be a lot of difficulties in the future, but I look forward to working with you, Ken Ayuhara.
Thank you very much.
Mom, I'm sorry to surprise you.
In fact, this time, Ken-kun wanted to say thank you to his mother, so we also supported him.
Mom, please come over here.
Ken-kun, how was it? Were you nervous?
I was nervous.
To be honest, I don't know how I feel.
I thought I was going to be caught.
I'm glad we were able to support him.
It was a great success.
The surprise operation was a great success.
Ken-kun, please take good care of your mother from now on.
It was a great success.
We, AKB48, are giving free delivery to the whole world to talk about the new disaster recovery song, TENOHIRA.
In this song, the AKB48 group's thoughts are that we can do it, make children smile, and continue to support the affected areas in 2013.
The AKB48 group will continue to support those who have been affected in the past and will continue to support those who have been affected in the future.
Everyone, please look forward to the ending dance. Let's go!
After this, there's still more dancing!
Next time, a little rabbit wants to confess before graduating from high school
I don't want to be apart from you
Will these feelings reach you?
Don't miss it! Pyon Pyon!
