AISubs v3.2
Good evening, everyone. I'm Miyon Mukaichi, co- director of AKB48.
Today, December 8th, is the 15th anniversary of the AKB48 theater.
Originally, it was an important day for each member to gather at the theater and express their gratitude to the fans.
I'm sorry to be a remote student like this.
2020 was a year when our lives changed a lot.
In the first half of this year, the theater was closed,
and the handshakes held every week were no longer held,
and everything that was normal was gone.
Still, the only thing left for us was the enthusiasm of the members and staff,
and the fans who supported us.
In support of that, we continued to look for what we could do in the current situation,
and held OUC48 streams, online talks, and performances and live performances with limited numbers.
Today, it has become like this again,
but I am very happy to be able to celebrate the 15th anniversary with all the members and everyone who is watching now.
In order to protect this group, we will continue to move forward.
AKB48 is an idol that you can meet even if you are far away.
So, AKB48 Theater 15th Anniversary Commemoration Stream Start!
Everyone, once again, good evening, we are AKB48!
I'm AKB48 Team A's Miyako, Miyazaki Miho. Nice to meet you.
I'm Team A's Captain Komiharu, Komiyama Haruka. Nice to meet you.
I'm Team B's Captain Sako, Iwatate Kaho. Nice to meet you.
I'm Murayama Team 4's Asai Nanami. Nice to meet you.
I'm Team 8's Momoka Onishi. Nice to meet you.
Today is the 15th anniversary of Shiata.
Originally, we were going to have a solo medley performance.
However, it was postponed.
We were thinking about the members' self-produced performances.
How did you prepare?
You know the name of the song, don't you?
At the time of the lottery, I drew a vegetable sister.
That's amazing.
I drew a vegetable sister from the remaining three.
I was thinking about what to wear.
I couldn't do it today, so I decided to eat vegetables.
Miyano is drawing a vegetable sister.
Wait a minute.
I noticed something bad.
Is that so?
I hurt my foot.
I was surprised.
I forgot.
I can't wear heels yet.
Your feet are in bad shape today.
I was in good shape, so I was grateful for the performance.
It's hard to say what kind of song it is.
You can say it.
Can I say it?
Is it true?
You can say it.
Can I say it?
I don't need wings.
It's a great song.
I like this song very much.
Personally, I like this song very much.
I couldn't draw a lottery on the day.
When I was looking at the list of songs, I decided that this song was the best.
That's amazing.
Is that true?
I'm glad.
I'm trying to think about the performance.
I use that song on the bench.
That's how I feel.
Asahi?
Yes.
I won't say the name of the song.
I can't say the name of the song.
I'm preparing a project.
Give me a hint.
What kind of project?
It's related to AKB48 theater.
I want to do a project.
What is it?
I don't know.
Please look forward to it.
We will announce the announcement of the 98-song solo medley by self-produced members as soon as it is decided.
AKB48 Theater 15th Anniversary Commemoration Broadcast
First of all, I would like to put a tape on the theater's bridge.
That's great.
However, unfortunately, not a single member was able to gather at the theater today.
I would like to put a tape on only one pillar.
I would like to put the other one on when everyone gathers safely at the theater.
There are two pillars at the theater.
I would like to ask Momoka Onishi to do the first one.
Thank you very much.
This is a big role.
I didn't think I would be able to put a tape on, so I'm very honored.
Excuse me.
I think there are people who can only put a tape on the chosen pillar.
I'm going to put a tape on here.
I'm very nervous about putting a tape on straight.
If you fail, you will be punished.
Don't put pressure on me.
Can you do it well?
It's beautiful.
But if it's taping, it's Minagishi-san, right?
Because she's a first-generation student.
Yeah, yeah.
She's seen all of them.
Minagishi-san.
No, no, no, I'm sorry.
Yes?
It's probably true, but I've never done taping before.
It's your first time, right?
Why? I don't think I've done it before.
I haven't been chosen before.
Eh? You haven't?
I thought I would fail, but I didn't.
So I'll make sure I don't fail on Onishi-chan.
Yes.
That's a lot of pressure.
You didn't fail, did you?
Yes.
It's done! It came out really pretty!
Oh, pretty!
Wow!
I'm glad.
It came out really pretty.
I'm sure Minagishi-san will be satisfied.
It came out pretty.
Thank you.
I'm glad it went well.
I'm glad.
I'm relieved.
Yes, so...
Eh?
Ah, that's right.
For the other pillar...
It's true.
I want you to take it as a first-time representative.
Thank you. I'm looking forward to it.
Please take a video of it on YouTube and publish it.
Yes.
Yes, so...
We'll put up the rest of the faces.
Yes.
Today's broadcast will be divided into Team AKB48.
I'd like to look back on AKB48's 15-year history.
Yes.
Before that, I have an important announcement for the fans.
Eh?
What is it?
I'd like you to be mentally prepared.
Eh? That much?
Yes.
Please.
Yes.
Then I'll announce it.
Here it is!
January 2021, TDC HALL will hold a concert!
Yay!
I'm so happy!
I'm really happy.
I'm so happy.
It's the annual January TDC HALL concert.
It will be held next year as well.
Thank you so much.
In January of this year, 48 groups will hold a request hour.
However, due to COVID-19, it is difficult to hold a request hour.
In January of this year, AKB48 will hold a 15-hour live concert.
15 hours?
This is unprecedented, isn't it?
There will be 7 concerts in total.
In total, it will be a 15-hour live concert.
I'm glad it's not a day.
That's right.
If you sleep for 8 hours, you have to put on makeup for 1 hour, and then you have a live concert.
Can't you do it?
It's only 24 hours a day, isn't it?
Yes.
It was hard to do a 15-hour live concert.
It's okay.
Then I would like to announce the schedule.
The schedule is here.
January 22, Friday, Yoru Kouen, Team A.
January 23, Saturday, Asa Kouen, Team K.
This afternoon, Team B.
Yoru Kouen, Team 4.
January 24, Sunday, Asa Kouen, Team 8.
This afternoon, Team 1 to Team 15,
members who join early,
First Generation Selection Concert.
Yoru Kouen, Draft, Team 8, 16th generation.
Second Generation Selection Concert.
That's a lot.
How do you feel, Captain Komiharu and Sakho?
Since Team K and Team B became new,
I think this is the third time I've been on TBC.
I would like to show the history of AKB
as well as the history of the team.
How about you, Sakho?
In the last round of the tour,
I was on each team's TBC hall.
From there, I'll be on for about a year.
I hope I can show everyone's growth
and the new side of the team.
I'm looking forward to it.
First generation and second generation.
This is the first time we've tried this.
It's rare to have a senior-junior split.
I think it will be a special live that can only be seen on this day.
The members will be announced later.
And this concert will be a team-like performance.
AKB48's 15th Anniversary 15-hour live
has a set list and a concept.
What kind of concept is it?
Here it is.
AKB48 15th Anniversary Miracle Concert!
Wow!
AKB has a long history.
Wow!
Yes.
Team A, which will be displayed on the first day,
is tied to the songs released from 2005 to 2007.
The next day's team system is from 2008 to 2009.
Team B is from 2010 to 2011.
Team 4 is from 2012 to 2013.
Team 8 is from 2014 to 2015.
Team 1 is from 2016 to 2017.
Team 2 is from 2018 to 2020.
Wow!
That means,
if you go through all 7 performances,
you can enjoy all 15 years of AKB48.
Wow!
That's great.
I'm sleepy.
And,
50% of the audience will be there.
I want to be there.
So,
I like both Team A and Team B,
but I don't feel like I'm singing Team A.
I don't feel like I'm singing the same song.
That's true.
So, no matter where I go,
I feel like I'm singing the same song.
It's the same song.
Yes.
And,
the fans will feel like,
they've become fans since then.
I think they'll feel a miracle as their fans.
I think that's emotional, too.
That's true.
How about you, Asahi and Onishi?
Yes.
I think this is something only AKB can do.
I'm really looking forward to it.
I think there will be songs that we can't usually see at concerts or theaters,
so I'm really looking forward to it.
Yes.
And,
since we're announcing the age,
I think the fans can predict that this song will be released by this team.
I think that will be one of the things the fans are looking forward to,
so I think it's really great.
That's true.
And,
there's a possibility that you'll be able to sing AKB's early songs before joining AKB.
Yes.
It's rare to have such an experience.
Yes.
And,
it's a chance for AKB fans to get to know the old songs as well.
This is really great.
And, the details of the tickets
will be announced on the official blog at 9 p.m. today,
so please check it out.
Thank you.
So,
based on the set list of each team's TDC hall concert,
I'd like to look back at each team that's in charge of AKB48's 15-year history.
First,
let's start with Team A.
Team A!
Yeah!
So, we have 16 members in Team A.
Including me, it's been 17 years.
January...
Good evening.
Ayana, you're frozen.
Ayana, you're frozen. Are you okay?
I've decided on the background.
Are you particular about the background?
The radio is bad.
Did you say pof?
Good evening.
I'm not saying good evening.
I'm asking about the background.
How is it?
Wait a minute.
It's gone.
It's gone. Thank you for your hard work.
Wait a minute.
Good evening.
I'm doing my best to participate.
I've been saying good evening all the time.
I'll ignore you for a moment.
So, on January 22nd, Friday night,
I would like to have a concert with 17 people, including the members you see and me.
Thank you for your cooperation.
First of all, Captain Okabe Rin.
How do you feel about the TDC Hall concert?
It's been decided.
I'm so happy.
I've been on the team every year.
I was wondering what would happen this year.
I'm so relieved that I can do it.
I've been in a situation where I can't do the same kind of activity as I used to.
I'm sure the fans were looking at other groups.
Wait a minute.
We're going to have a concert.
We can appeal to the fans as much as we can.
I hope the fans and the members can have a good time together.
And I hope we can have more fun and bond as we make lessons and concerts.
I want to explode the feeling of wanting to do it at this concert.
I want to enjoy it.
Thank you very much.
I'm really looking forward to it.
Let's take a look back at AKB48 from 2005 to 2007.
Here we go.
Happy birthday, Yui Yokoyama.
Congratulations!
Let's celebrate your birthday!
Let's celebrate your birthday by ourselves!
That's right!
We can celebrate it!
I'm really happy!
Thank you so much!
The rehearsal was smooth,
so I didn't think there would be anything like this.
I tried to decorate it yesterday,
but I was able to do it yesterday!
I'm so happy! Thank you so much!
Congratulations!
You've been decorating yourself since yesterday, right?
That's right. I'm waiting at home right now,
so I bought it on Amazon.
I also bought a cake for myself.
You're enjoying the cake, aren't you?
The members sent me a lot of LINE messages,
and the fans sent me a lot of messages on Twitter.
They celebrated AKB48,
and they celebrated me.
I'm so happy.
I'm so happy. Thank you so much.
Thank you so much.
Congratulations!
By the way, how old are you now?
I'm 28 years old.
That's pretty much the same age as me.
You don't look that different.
I don't look that different.
28 years old is pretty much the same age as me.
What do you think? Has your way of thinking changed since you were young?
I've changed a lot.
I think I've changed a lot.
I joined AKB when I was 16, so it's been 12 years.
In the past, I could only see in front of me, but now I can see the side of me little by little.
My perspective has widened and it's more fun.
I think there are a lot of young members, but I've met a lot of people while I've been active in AKB.
My perspective has widened and I want you to do what you want to do.
I think AKB is a group of people who shine one by one.
I'm looking forward to it.
It's been a long time.
Thank you.
I'm Yui Yokoyama, and my perspective has widened.
Si-chan?
Wait a minute.
Please stop talking.
It's time for a team meeting.
I want to congratulate you, so I think you should come.
Si-chan is watching.
Si-chan?
Si-chan, please come out.
Please say something to Yui Yokoyama as a friend.
Congratulations!
It's like looking at the remote control.
Excuse me. Please leave the room.
Let's get back to the main topic.
Let's look back at 2005 to 2007.
Here it is.
As you can see, there were a lot of events.
In December 2005, AKB48 Theater opened.
In January 2006, Sakura no Hanabiratachi made their Indie debut.
In February, Team K was born.
In October, the first single, Aitakatta, made its major debut.
In November, Nihon Seinenkan held its first concert.
In December, Team B was born.
In March 2007, the first nationwide tour was held.
In May, the 4th generation audition was held.
In July, Himawarigumi 1st, Boku no Taiyou Kouen was held.
In December, NHK Kouhaku Utagassen was held for the first time.
It's a very deep year.
We've had a very deep year since we were formed.
From then until now, there have only been three members.
Mii-chan, Yukirin, and C-chan.
I'm sure everyone who's watching this right now is a fan.
I'm sure you've seen AKB48 when you weren't a member.
Do you know the first AKB48?
No, I didn't know at the time.
I haven't seen it in real time.
Is that so?
I don't think I've seen it in real time.
I'm sure I've seen it when I was two years old.
I saw it 15 years ago.
I haven't seen it 15 years ago.
I don't know anything about AKB at the time.
When I saw it, I thought it was like this.
Kouhaku's appearance.
What was your first memory of AKB?
Heavy Rotation.
It's Heavy Rotation.
That's how I got to know AKB.
I see.
How about you, Zun-chan? I have an image that you like AKB.
I got to know AKB when I was 10 years old.
When you were 10 years old?
Yes, when I was 10 years old and 2010.
I got to know AKB around 2010.
How about you, Yokoyama-san?
When I was 10 years old?
I got to know AKB when I was 10 years old.
Really?
There was a time difference.
There isn't.
I got to know AKB when I was 10 years old.
That's amazing.
Don't do that.
Really?
I got to know AKB when I saw you on YouTube.
I think it was a music video of Daimon.
There are very few people who really know it, and I think most of the songs are from the early days.
I think you all have a list of songs from this era, but there are 115 songs in total.
It's an old song, so I think there are a lot of famous songs that are not really known.
I have a question. Do you want to sing this song? Do you want to see Marumaru-chan singing this song?
You're going to have a concert with this song, aren't you?
How about Mion?
There's Mori Eiko.
Thank you very much.
I want you to do it.
My debut song is Mori Eiko.
The first song is usually the first song in the theater.
I'm Mori Eiko, the 10th song.
It's the first song in the middle.
It's a unit song.
That's how I made my debut.
Let's do Mori Eiko in the center of Miao.
Do you know her?
Let's do it.
I'll take it home and talk to myself.
How about you, Lena?
I personally want you to do I Love You in the glass with cute girls.
It looks good on you.
You look like an angel.
I thought it would look good on you.
By the way, the 115 songs on the song list are...
The party is about to begin. The park I wanted to see.
Youth Girls Park.
Park for someone. Paradise Park in my brain.
I'm in love right now.
Our sun park.
It's a song list of parks where you can't let your dreams die.
There are so many parks.
In the past, the park changed once every three months.
That's right.
How about you, Sora?
Do you have a favorite?
The first park I went to was Blue Rose.
I want to do it with you.
You look cool.
Wait a minute.
You look like you're bored.
Is there a song you can't sing?
There are a lot of songs I can sing.
Really?
Good morning.
I've been in a relationship with my sun park.
I'd be happy if I could sing a song like that.
By the way, who do you want to sing with?
From here?
Excuse me. Can I choose from here?
Show me your face.
scary
It's like a face audition.
I'm sorry I couldn't see your face.
Furukawa-chan
Thank you.
How about you two?
I'm glad.
I didn't think I'd be chosen.
I thought I'd make a cute face.
I'm glad.
Thank you.
I can't see Iriyama-san and Nazuna-chan.
I'm looking forward to a surprising combination of units.
It's about time.
I'm sorry.
It's time for the team to end.
How was it, Chiba Eri-chan?
There were a lot of songs I knew.
I'm looking forward to what kind of set list it will be.
Personally, I'd like to do Koike.
Koike?
I really want to do Koike.
I want to do it with everyone.
I want you to do it.
I want to see it.
Didn't you do it with this team?
I haven't done it with this team.
I haven't seen it lately.
That line is very characteristic.
I want you to do it.
Eri
I can't imagine it, but it looks like it's going to be fun.
It looks like it's going to be fun.
What should I do at the end?
After all, this is...
Minami Sato
A word for the TDC hall concert.
A word for the TDC concert?
I'm very grateful to be able to have a TDC concert this year.
I'll do my best to practice.
I'm looking forward to meeting 50% of the fans.
I want to do my best as Team A.
Thank you very much.
I think it was a great closing comment.
Team A, thank you very much.
Thank you very much.
Team A looked back on 2005 to 2007.
How was it, everyone?
It's an old concert hall, isn't it?
I thought it would be fresh if I did it with this member.
I'm looking forward to seeing if there's anything I've done in the past.
There's a song I'm really envious of.
There was a song called Bone Bone Waltz.
I love it and I always sing it at karaoke.
The songs we can sing this time are decided every two years.
I was envious of each of them.
I want to sing this song.
Next, please.
Next, I'd like to look back on 2008 to 2009 as a team member.
Team members!
Ah, they're here!
Hello!
Well then, on January 23rd, Saturday,
AsaKoen will have a concert with 16 members including me.
Yes, please take care of us.
Please take care of us.
Well then, let's get started.
Minami Minegishi, a first-year student.
Yes.
How do you feel about looking back on 2007?
I'm sorry, but it seems like I've put on tape before.
Huh?
It seems like I've done it before.
I'll correct that part.
It seems like it.
I'm sorry.
But since we're here, let's do it at the end.
That's true.
Thank you very much.
Since 2007, only Team K and Minegishi have been here.
Yes.
Megumin, were you born?
2007...
I was about 3 years old.
3 years old?
So young.
Yes.
This is the main event of AKB48 from 2008 to 2009.
In January 2008, AKB's first full-length program, AKB's 1 o'clock 59 minutes, was broadcast.
In June, the 9th single, Baby Baby Baby, was broadcast.
In October, the 10th single, O-Goe Diamond, was released.
It was ranked 3rd on Oricon.
In January 2009, the 1st Request Hour was held.
In June, the 12th single, Namida Surprise, was released.
It was ranked 2nd on Oricon.
In June, the 1st General Election was held.
In August, the 13th single, Iiwake Maybe, was released.
It was ranked 2nd on Oricon.
In August, the 1st Sogaku was announced.
In October, the 14th single, River, was released.
It was ranked 1st on Oricon for the first time.
In December, it was ranked 2nd on NHK Kouhaku Utagasen.
Team K, how do you feel?
Everyone is nervous because it's remote, but you're always so loud.
There are a lot of singles.
I think a lot of people became fans around here.
Were there any members who were fans at this time?
Mogi-san?
When the song was released, my older brother danced to it at a cultural festival.
So I listened to AKB48's music video and thought it was cute.
Who was your favorite member?
I didn't have a favorite member, but I liked Yukirin- san at that time.
That's too much.
I said it for the first time at that time.
It's a precious episode.
I heard it for the first time, too.
A message.
I became a fan of Otaika-san's cute AKB48 because I like you.
Love-tan-san, happy birthday!
I was a fan of AKB48 and went to a handshake event.
I shook hands with Miao-san.
After all?
That's right.
I remember.
Really?
You did a ponytail, didn't you?
That's right.
At the handshake event.
You did a ponytail, didn't you?
I remember.
I didn't do a ponytail.
I didn't do it.
Thank you.
I was able to feel the miracle of being a fan of the members.
I think it's wonderful.
And I think you all have a list of songs of this age.
There are 92 songs in total.
So, do you have any opinions on the set list, such as wanting to sing this song at the concert or watching this song of this member?
Yes.
Oh, Tamu-chan.
There is a great song called First Love.
I've always had the image of a person who is going to be the next generation singing alone at a concert.
I see.
So I'd like to see someone singing alone.
That's right.
Who is it?
Yes.
Was that Ayamin's voice?
Yes.
Ayamin, what is it?
I'm a member of Pajama Drive.
I, Ran-chan, Okarina, and Megumin have been doing this concert for a long time.
At that time, we were doing it with all the researchers.
I'd like to do it again with the team members.
Sure.
In 2008 and 2009, like the Pajama Drive concert that Ayamin mentioned earlier,
there were a lot of songs about theater performances, such as the last bell ringing performance, the climbing up the hill performance, and the ban on love.
Yes, there were a lot.
There were a lot of songs about theater performances, such as the last bell ringing performance, the climbing up the hill performance, the climbing up the hill performance, and the ban on love.
There are songs about 16 sisters.
It's a lot of fun to make lyrics for this member.
There are lyrics that each member introduces, so I wonder what will happen.
I want to do it.
I want to see a story.
I want to see the angel's tail in Hachiman Drive Park.
It's a performance by Minegishi, Mogi, and Tome.
What do you mean?
Maybe it's a seniority?
No, it's a seniority.
It's a story of a seniority.
I'm afraid if the members are just happy.
I'll get rid of it.
Is there anything else?
Who's going to do this?
I was talking to Pomi yesterday.
I want to introduce Tom and Rin.
I was going to offer it seriously.
I don't want to do it.
I did a heart-shaped six-line poem last time.
At that time, I was asked to show it.
I said I didn't want to show it.
I offered it once.
I absolutely don't want to do it.
I wanted to see it.
How about Naru-chan?
Team B's songs and performances are originally Hachiman Drive Park and Team B.
I wonder what would happen if I did that kind of song.
Will everyone do it properly?
Will you do it properly?
What do you mean by that?
I want to do a cute song with K.
Team K loves K songs.
I've been making all the concerts with K songs.
I think I'll be performing other teams' songs for the first time this time.
I wonder how much Team K will do it.
It's really cute.
How about Yoko Yui?
I'll do the end roll.
I've done it a few times, but I haven't done it recently.
Team K has a lot of members who can dance.
All of us?
No, right?
I'm scared.
I can't do it.
End roll.
I wanted to do it.
This is a strong candidate.
I'm looking forward to it.
Team K's time is almost over.
Let's hear your impressions.
Kobayashi Ran-chan.
You didn't say a word.
How was it?
As Komiyama-san said, Team K has a lot of songs.
I'm looking forward to singing other teams' songs.
I also want to see Team K's photos from a year ago.
I'm looking forward to the rest time.
I hope we can have the best concert.
I'll do my best.
The background is also AKB48.
Thank you, Team K.
Next, let's look back at Team B from 2010 to 2011.
Team B, gather around.
Is everyone here?
Sorry to keep you waiting.
Everyone is here.
The concert will be on January 23rd, Saturday.
16 members including me will be there.
Thank you.
3rd Gen Yukirin.
Sorry to keep you waiting.
Were you watching?
Yes, I was.
The part where Shi-chan was in was the funniest.
Mogi-chan said she liked Yukirin-san at first.
I heard it for the first time.
I was going to join, but I was not confident that I could speak well with Mogi-chan.
So I quit.
Both of you are tall, so you can talk about anything.
I was happy.
That was unexpected.
I was happy.
Let's take a look at AKB48's events from 2010 to 2011.
Here it is.
Yes, here we go.
In April 2010, AKB48's All Night Nippon was broadcasted.
The 2nd election was held in June.
In August, the 17th single, Heavy Rotation was released.
The 1st rock-paper-scissors tournament was held in September.
In October, the 18th single, Beginner was released.
The group's first 1 million copies were sold.
Wow!

In June, Team 4 was formed.
In June, the 3rd election was held.

Yes.
Yukarun, how about you?
I made my debut in 2011.
That's right.
I made my debut at the Seibu Dome concert in 2011.
Oh, I see.
I was in the song called Ice.
Here?
Wow!
Can you see the ice?
Wow!
I want to see it.
I think many members have seen AKB48.
Do you have any episodes?
Have you ever been to this concert?
You can see the ice.
What?
You can see it.
I was in Fukuoka.
I love AKB48 so much.
I heard that HKT48 was held in Hakata.
HKT48 was very popular because it was said that it would definitely be held in Hakata.
I see.
I think so.
You have the same face.
I have a sense of presence.
I became a fan of HKT48 around this time.
I became a fan of HKT48 in October 2010.
I went to see the rock-paper-scissors competition in 2011.
Wow!
After 3 days, I passed the final exam and entered the school.
This is the timing of my fan's miracle.
What about you, Maho-pyon?
I was in elementary school.
I love AKB48.
We talked a lot during the lunch break.
I'm looking forward to singing songs of AKB48.
After I joined AKB48, I learned a lot about AKB48's performances.
There are some songs I haven't sung yet.
I've decided on two songs that I really want to sing.
Two songs?
Let's listen to it.
Everyone has a list of songs of this age.
Please choose two of the 111 songs.
I've always loved AKB48's songs.
I love AKB48's songs so much that I always sing them at karaoke.
I want to sing that song.
The other song I want to sing is the song I sang during the tour.
I want to sing a song about my relationship with you.
I want you to sing that song.
I want to sing that song.
I want to sing those two songs.
What about you, Megu?
I want you to sing that song.
I want you to sing the song called Wagamama Collection.
It's a cute song.
There are many young members in Team B.
I thought it would be cute if we all sang it.
It's a cute song.
And I...
You're strong.
Megu, do you have anything else to say?
May I?
I was a fan of yours when I went to your handshake event.
I went to your handshake event in Ajinomoto Stadium.
I went there with Yuko Oshima.
Beginner is a special song for me, so I want to be a beginner.
It suits you.
How about you, Kayo?
It was the time when I devoted my youth to AKB.
I'm glad that Team B can be in charge of this age.
There are many memorable songs.
I want to do MAJISKA Rock'n'Roll and MAJIO TEPPENBRUCE at Team B.
I want to do it.
I want to do a song that I don't usually do at Team B's concert.
I love MAJISKA, so I'm looking forward to it.
Do you have a song you want to sing?
I want to sing a song called DAKISHIMECHA IKENAIWA.
That's a good song.
It's a song of the election.
It's a song that I want to sing because it's a song that I remember.
I don't want you to sing because the choreography is difficult.
It's very difficult.
What do you want to do?
I want to sing MAJISKA Rock'n'Roll.
I also like RESET KOUEN.
This time, RESET KOUEN's song is in our song.
I want to sing a song called WHITE DAY NIWA and HOUSE MAMON.
Who will do it?
Is SHUHUA motivated?
Will GORILLA do it?
Let's ask other people.
SAKI, what do you want to do?
The first album I listened to was here.
The first live I saw in the video was here.
There are a lot of songs that I remember.
It's a song I've never done before.
I want to do it.
Let's ask NANASE.
I like the lyrics of the song OVERTAKE.
I remember listening to it when I felt a little dark.
UEKARAMARIKO.
I want YUKIRIN to do it.
I've never done it before.
When we played rock-paper-scissors, I couldn't remember it.
Is that okay?
Don't spread it out.
Actually, I was going to do it.
If you say it here, it's going to be a huge spread.
Maybe you'll be able to see Yukirin perform for the first time.
Yukirin, what do you want to do the most?
Well, I'm already here at this time.
How about a chorus of cherry blossoms?
Please be serious.
It's a joke, isn't it?
I didn't think much about it.
But there are a lot of answers now.
It was written on the top of the cherry blossoms.
That's right.
You usually do cute songs, right?
There's also a witness performance.
I want to do it.
I think we can make a gap.
I hope you'll look forward to it.
One last person.
Please be serious.
I want to make a song that shows Team B's cuteness.
I can't hear the sound.
I heard your voice.
Did you hear me?
Team B, please be serious.
I want to do a cute song.
For example, Team K's song.
I want to do a lot of cute things.
I want to make it a wonderful concert.
Let's do our best.
That's all for Team B.
Thank you, everyone.
Next, let's take a look at the members of Team 4 from 2012 to 2013.
Everyone!
On January 23rd, Yoru Koen will have a concert with 17 members including me.
Thank you.
As I said, 17 members, but Makiho will be graduating soon.
She is participating in this broadcast today.
What do you think, Makiho?
I think I really wanted to participate.
It looks fun.
But I can't participate.
If I have time, I want to go see it.
I'm looking forward to it.
Please come, Makiho.
I'll go see it.
Next, Captain Yuiri.
You will have a concert at the TDC Hall from 2012 to 2013.
What do you think?
We received a list of songs.
The main songs are singles and albums.
I think we can sing a lot of other teams' songs.
For example, Ruby, K's How Come, Romance Kenju, etc.
There are a lot of songs that we can't show you.
There are a lot of people who are older than us.
I want to show you a sexy and cool side of us.
It's a new side.
Here are the main events from AKB48 2012 to 2013.
In March 2012, Atsuko Maeda graduated from Saitama Super Arena Concert.
In August, the Tokyo Dome AKB48 in Tokyo Dome 1830m Dream was held.
And the second team selection was announced, and the disbandment of Team 4 was also announced here.
In December, Manatsu no Sounds Good won the Japanese record for two consecutive years.
And in June 2013, the fourth team selection was held.
Rino Sashihara won first place, and Mariko Shinoda announced her graduation.
In July, the Tokyo Dome Tour was held, and in August, the Love Fortune Cookie was released.
And in August, Team 4 was also formed.
In November, the first draft meeting was held, and in December, the sixth team selection was held.
And Yuko Oshima announced her graduation.
That's the announcement.
How about you, Nana?
I just made my debut in 2012.
So I'm very happy and emotional to be able to perform a song from that time in 2012.
Yes, that's right.
I think we also had Minagishi Chimuho-san.
Yes.
This is good.
Yes.
And then, Kihara-san.
I think Kihara-san has already joined us.
Yes, that's right.
The 15th generation debuted at the 5th of June 2013 at the Kensei Budokan.
Yes, that's right.
At that time, I had to memorize all the concerts at the Kensei Budokan, the Kensei Park, and the Nissan Stadium.
So I listened to a lot of AKB48 songs at that time.
The songs from 2013 and 2014 were songs that I had to work hard on in real time.
I'm really happy that we were able to make songs from 2012 and 2013.
I hope the fans can see the new possibilities that Chimuho has.
Yes.
I want them to see it.
And then, among Chimuho, Sena-tan.
I think Sena-tan has seen a lot of AKB.
Sena-tan.
How is it?
The first concert I went to was the Tokyo Dome.
That's a really good memory.
At that time, it was so much fun.
When I got home, I wrote down all the songs I sang, the MC, and everything I remembered.
That's cute.
I'm happy.
I'm happy, too.
I'm sure you all have a list of songs from this era.
There are 96 songs in total.
If you want to sing this song at a concert, or if you want to see this member's song, please let us know.
Oh, Nana-san.
That's fast.
I have one.
I've never performed this song anywhere before.
I want to do it.
You don't know this song, do you?
I really like this song.
I want to hear it.
Really?
I really like this song.
It wasn't performed at all.
Oh, really?
I only sang this song when I recorded it.
That's rare.
I'd be happy if I could do it, but I don't have a choreography.
I think it's a new opportunity.
It's also an opportunity to perform a song that hasn't been performed yet.
I want to do it.
I hope you can do it.
Hey, everyone, there's that.
There's Haste and Oaste.
Oh, Haste and Oaste.
Zukki, what's wrong?
Haste and Oaste.
I want to do it myself, but...
I'm going to put Kawaii Rina's Haste and Oaste in a unit song.
I'm going to test it in the team.
I'm going to have a person who hasn't done it do it.
Oh, that's a great idea.
The captain's face is cloudy, but is it okay?
Is it a test of academic ability?
Or is it a test of AKB?
It's a test of academic ability.
There are some suspicious members, not just Yuri.
Why?
It's okay.
Let's do it.
It's a good game.
It's a pretty good game.
I think we can do something that's worth watching.
Onishi will also be on this show.
Yes, Onishi will also be on this show.
There are so many great songs.
Personally, I just want to do it because I like it.
Scrap and Build.
I want to do it.
It's a good song.
I love it.
I hope I can do this with my favorite team.
Captain, please.
Thank you.
How about Miyupon?
There are a lot of songs from when I was a student.
I would like to sing a song that brings back memories.
There is also a romance song.
Yes, there is.
When I was 13 or 14 years old, I sang a lot.
I don't know if I can do it now.
I would like to sing a song that brings back memories.
Let's do it.
You were singing a lot.
Is there a song you want Miyupon to sing?
I would like to sing a romance song.
There is also a love song.
I would be happy if I could sing this song again.
Speaking of love songs.
How about you, MACHARIN?
At the concert two years ago, we sang our songs together.
I thought it would be nice if I could sing it again.
It was just two years ago.
That's right. It was just two years ago.
I wanted to do it.
That's right.
How about you, Serika?
Yes, I'm single.
I really like Gingham check.
I always want to do it at a concert.
I'll tell the staff.
I'm not always able to do it.
I wish I could do it.
Gingham check.
I think this is your chance to appeal.
I'd like to hear more.
How about you, Kaori?
Yes, I have a favorite song.
I like the hero who is not on the side of justice.
I wanted to do it, or rather, I want to do it.
It's hard to have a chance to sing other teams' songs, so I want to do it.
How about you, Char?
I have three.
One is a team name called Countdown to Kiss.
I sang it a lot at karaoke, so I want to do it.
Also, there is a song called Avocado Janessi.
I want Senatan and Kaorin to do it.
It's definitely cute.
I want them to do it.
Cute.
Also, there is a song called Fortune Cookie.
It's a fortune cookie, so I want to do it.
I see.
That's true.
It's almost time to wrap up.
Lastly, Mai-chan.
Mai-chan.
Please tell us how you feel about the TDC4 concert.
I'm very nervous, but I want to enjoy it and do my best.
Team 4, thank you very much.
Thank you.
Next, let's look back at 2014-2015 with the members of Team 8.
Everyone!
Hello!
Wow!
There are a lot of people.
It's lively.
Did everyone join?
Yes.
There are a lot of people.
There are a lot of members who have something to say.
Let's start with Karen Yoshida.
What did you do?
Karen.
Good evening.
I thought it was a miracle.
That spirit is wonderful.
One more person.
Did you do something?
I did.
Where's Mitsu?
There she is.
She's holding a lot of A's.
She's cute.
Thank you for the fan night.
This time, we're going to play with the members of Team 8.
Rei Fujino was born in the same year as AKB48.
You're the same age as AKB48.
Rei, when you first got interested in AKB48,
do you remember the first time you knew AKB48?
The first time I knew AKB48 was when I was in the 2nd or 3rd grade of elementary school.
AKB48 was on a music show, and I remember there was a heavy rotation at that time.
When you were in the 2nd grade of elementary school, AKB was...
It was around 2012.
2012, 2013.
I see.
It's amazing that you're the same age as AKB.
Are there any members who are younger than AKB48?
That's right.
I have a teammate.
She's in the 2nd grade of middle school.
There are three members, Momoka Hasegawa, Hiyuka Sakagawa, and Remi Takunaga.
Hasemomo.
She's younger than AKB48.
When did you know Hasemomo?
I think I found out about him on a TV program.
What kind of music do you remember?
I don't remember.
But it was when I was little, so I remember it very well.
When I was in the first grade of elementary school, I learned how to dance to Koi Suru Hochu Kukki at school.
That's a long time ago.
When did you learn about AKB48?
I learned about Flying Get when I was in kindergarten.
Flying Get is a new memory for Onishi.
Kindergarten?
Did you learn about it when you were in kindergarten?
That's amazing.
I really feel the history of AKB48, so I'm looking forward to it.
Here are the main events of AKB48 from 2014 to 2015.
In February 2014, AKB48 Group held their first- ever festival.
In March 2014, AKB48 held a concert at the National Stadium.
The second day was delayed due to the rain.
In April, members of Team 8 performed at Saitama Super Arena.
That's right, they debuted in 2014.
In June, the 6th AKB48 General Election was held.
At that time, Mayu Watanabe won first place.
In June, Yuko Oshima's graduation concert was held at the Ajinomoto Stadium.
In December, Minami Takahashi announced her graduation at the 9th anniversary concert.
At that time, Yui Yokoyama was appointed as the next general director.

It's a lineup like this.
It's the year of Team 8.
That's right, it was in 2010.
Let's listen to the story of the year we joined.
Hama!
Yes!
How is it?
Is my voice okay?
It's okay.
Team 8 has formed so much.
I'm a little surprised right now.
But it feels like Team 8.
I'm glad to be able to have a concert with Team 8 like this.
I'm glad.
Let's move on.
Haru!
Yes!
How is it?
The reason I fell in love with the AKB48 Group is Takamina.
Takamina has released a lot of songs since he graduated.
For example, Be My Baby on My Lips,
The Day We Met, The Day We Parted,
Back Words,
I want to do All of You, a solo song.
That's a good song.
Yui!
Yes!
How is it?
Is it a song you want to do?
I don't think so.
Team 8 was announced in 2014.
When Team 8 first joined,
We're all from Tohoku Prefecture.
Our dialects are all mixed up.
I'm from Tokyo, so I couldn't hear it.
I think everyone is amazing.
Especially Yoko is very different.
I remember Yoko very well.
Right, Yoko?
Yoko?
Yes.
The members were translating through their elbows.
So I was able to speak standard Japanese.
Thank you.
It's a bit difficult.
We've heard a lot.
I'm sure you all have it.
There are 136 songs in this album.
That's a lot.
By the way, these 136 songs have the most songs in all ages.
That's a lot.
There's a song called Amano.
I don't want to hear it.
It's Team 8's song.
If you want to sing this song at this concert,
If you want to see this song of this member,
If you have an opinion while thinking about the set list,
You can do it in Kyoshu or anything.
Ranri!
I'm Toriya Miyata, the representative of Okinawa Prefecture.
I really like the theme song of the drama Sailor Zombie.
It's a three-person unit.
Behind the members who are dancing Sailor Zombie,
Team 8 members are appearing as zombies.
That's nice.
I thought it would be fun to watch.
Team 8 members like to play with each other.
I want to do that with everyone.
Sounds fun.
I thought so.
Let's go with Kanako.
I saw the song list.
I saw that AKB had a plan to wear costumes.
The costume called Ambulance is very sexy.
In-san is wearing it.
I want to see Yukarin and other sexy members wear it.
I want to see it.
It's very sexy.
Are you okay?
Yukarin, can I ask you about today's fashion point?
Yukarin, what is today's fashion point?
It's very sexy.
Should I buy the same clothes?
It's a pink background.
That's great.
Next, Shitao.
I have one.
What is it?
The moment I saw it, I thought it was this.
Gyoutei Yurina and Yoshikawa Munase and me.
We were doing a YouTube called Popoko.
The members with a popoko head.
There is a Popoko Blues.
It's perfect.
I thought it was perfect.
I want to do it with the three of us.
Isn't it perfect?
Isn't this a decision?
Popoko Blues.
That's good.
I want to do it.
Please take care of us.
Please.
Please take care of us.
Sayulee.
I want to see it.
The key to first love is a cute Lolita dress.
I want to see the colorful members like Ayane and Seri.
I want to see it.
I'm glad.
It suits you.
Let's do it.
I want to do it.
Let's do it.
It's pink and light blue.
That's right.
It's cute.
I want to do it.
Next, Maria.
I have one.
We've been together since we were little.
We've grown up together.
I want to grow up a little more and give you a wedding dress.
It looks fun.
I think I'll feel like that.
Like a parent's heart.
That's right.
Oda-san, too.
We had the image of being young and fresh.
It's been seven years, so we've all grown up.
We're not kids anymore.
That's cute.
I want you to feel emotional when you see us singing.
Next, Nagi.
I really like the song, Kimi wa Kimagure.
It's cute.
It's like a doll.
I want to do it like that.
It looks good on you.
It's cute.
Next, Akarin.
I thought it would go well with the song, Hajimari no Yuki.
That's right.
We've grown up together.
I hope we can show it beautifully.
That's great.
Next, Hattori.
I personally like sexy songs.
What is it?
Because it's after the shower.
I like it.
Next, Yumi.
I hope we can do it with Yukirin.
I want to do it.
I'm looking forward to it.
We've heard a lot of things.
Lastly, let's hear your enthusiasm for the concert.
Risen, please.
Hello.
I think we haven't been able to have a concert as a team lately.
I think the enthusiasm of the team is at its maximum right now.
I'm really happy to be able to show that.
I want to do my best as a team.
Thank you to all the teammates.
See you again.
I love you.
Next, let's take a look at the first-generation selection members from 2016 to 2017.
Please.
This is where you can see the members.
That's right.
Are there 15 members now?
Not enough.
I think that's all of us.
All of us?
Yes.
I'll say the names.
The members of First Generation are...
Minegishi Minami, Kashiwagi Miki, Ooya Shizuka, Yokoyama Yui, Iriyama Anna, Kato Rena, Sasaki Yukari, Murayama Yuri, Iwatate Saho, Mogi Shinobu, Okada Nana, Mukaichi Mion, Komiyama Haruka, Fukuoka Seina, Taniguchi Megu.
Yes, that's me.
On January 24th, we will have a concert with 16 members including me.
Thank you.
I think they are old members.
The members who are here now are the members who have been here for a long time.
Old.
15 years old.
How do you feel, Sei-chan?
I didn't expect it.
I was really surprised when I found out.
We joined in 2013.
Of course, all the seniors are seniors.
It all started with the situation that everyone was an older member.
I didn't expect to be called an old member.
Personally, I joined when I was the youngest.
I was 12 years old.
But I can still say that I was the youngest.
I don't do that anymore.
I think it's better to stop being the youngest.
Why me?
Don't pick up only me.
Let's not talk about your age.
Don't hide your face with your hands.
Let's not talk about your age.
Here is the main event of AKB48 from 2016 to 2017.
All 8 concerts of Takahashi Minami PRODUCE were held in February 2016.
Takahashi Minami's graduation concert was held in Yokohama Stadium in March.

How about the members?
How do you feel about this city?
I was in the list of songs of Tsubasa wa Iranai.
I think there are a lot of songs that have been released since we joined.
I think it would be fun if we could sing all the songs on the list.
There are a lot of songs that are new to me.
For example, I know the title song, but I don't know the coupling.
There are a lot of songs that haven't been revealed yet.
There is also a team A performance song.
There is also a team B performance song.
Nail?
Album?
Album.
Below.
Yes.
Like a shoot sign.
We did pro-wrestling.
We did.
We did pro-wrestling.
It's been a while.
It was a long time ago.
Yes.
2017?
It was 2017.
4 years ago.
In this era, pro-wrestling was more popular than idols.
Most of the members were in pro-wrestling.
Quite a lot.
The older members are doing their best.
That's right.
They're doing their best.
Ouya was doing her best.
She was doing her best.
She was waking up.
She was doing her best.
Yes.
Takamina, Kojiharu and Mayu graduated this year.
Do you have an episode with Takamina and Kojiharu?
Takamina and Kojiharu.
Minigis, please.
Recently, three of us gathered.
We know each other well.
Especially, Fujima-san.
She told me that I did my make-up well.
I was surprised.
Isn't it amazing?
Do you look at your make-up?
I don't look at my make-up.
We don't look at each other's make-up.
I thought that the senior members were watching us.
I thought that they didn't know me because I didn't have much time with Yuko Oshima.
I heard that Haruka Komiyama, whom I haven't seen for a long time, became a gyaru.
I thought that they knew me.
Is that so?
Yes.
I was happy.
She became a gyaru.
I was a fan of Yuko Oshima.
I see.
I was happy.
Takamina-san...
Can I say this?
Yes.
When I had an audition, Minami Takahashi supported me with her own money.
That's right.
I was surprised.
Minami Naginagishi, too.
Yes, she supported me.
I'm here.
Minami Naginagishi, too.
She supported me.
I haven't graduated yet.
I'm really happy to see the senior members.
Thank you.
I think that the senior members take care of us more than we think.
Do you have any memorable episodes in 2016 and 2017?
Yuuri, do you have any?
Memorable events?
I had Kojima-san give me a name as a member.
That's great.
At that time, I went to Kojima-san's produce concert.
Yes.
Kojima-san took care of me a lot.
I see.
That's great.
Can I say something?
Yes.
I went to Takamina's produce concert.
Did you?
I went to a dance concert and an idol concert.
There was a chaos concert.
I see.
I was chosen as a member.
It was really chaotic.
From the beginning to the end.
When I came back, I was wondering what I was doing.
At that time, I can't forget this.
Momoka Kinoshita from NMB had a white plastic bag.
I asked her what it was.
She said it was a poop.
What?
I really can't forget that.
I stood there and said it was a white plastic bag.
I was shaking it.
You were shaking it?
That's what happened in 2016 and 2017.
It was a big impact.
Have you ever carried it?
No.
That's because Takamina-san gave you an offer.
That's right.
Takamina is fair to people like that.
I thought it was amazing.
It's amazing.
By the way, WAN-chan's...
Even so.
I'll keep it short.
It was a year when I could do whatever I wanted.
I was able to understand my position.
I think it was a year when each member was shining.
There are 84 songs in the song list.
We're not on the same team.
To be honest, we've known each other for a long time.
There are people I'm not close with.
I don't know.
Who decides the set list?
That's right.
Who is the leader?
Do you decide the leader?
There are a lot of leaders.
Let's choose the leader.
Is there anyone who wants to do it?
Ah!
It's here!
Ah, so cool!
Ooya-san, do it properly
Can you do it properly?
I'm laughing
So you're the leader
If there's no meaning to this, Ooya-san will be the leader of the first generation selection
Can you tell us what you want to be when you become the leader?
I want to be the unit Seas Gone
Wait, let's not do this
Is that the only reason?
I want to be Seas Gone
Isn't there a meaning to this?
There's a meaning
There's a meaning?
There should be an Orimen
I'm an Orimen
How is it?
Yukarin and Annie are Orimen
And Megu-chan
I'm an Orimen
How is it?
I'm saying it
But Mirurun's position is open, right?
So if Shii-chan goes in there
Wait, I'm not going to be Mirurun's replacement
It's hard to replace Shizuru.
I have to lose 15 kg.
But I really want to do it.
With these four people.
I'm not talking about season 5.
I'm deciding the leader now.
But it's perfect for the number of people.
By the way, there are only leaders, Riko, Hoshii- chan, but how are you all doing?
Good luck.
Really?
Maybe, but I don't want to do it with everyone.
I want to do it, but I don't want to do it.
Yokoyama-san, I want to do it, but I don't want to do it.
I want to do it, but if Shizuru-chan wants to do it, I'll give it up.
It's not what I thought.
How about the members here?
Sako, how about you?
Don't you have any objections?
I think Mooya-san loves AKB.
I think so even if I talk on SNS.
It's not what I thought.
There's only Shizuru-chan.
There's only Mooya-san.
I'm sweating.
I want to see it.
There aren't many opportunities for Shizuru-chan to do it.
I want you to pull it.
Well then,
With this opportunity,
The leader of the first generation members,
Ooya Shizuka-san,
will be decided.
I think it's going to be a lot of work.
I don't think you'll have a day off on New Year's.
It's natural.
The leader is the one who moves while everyone is resting.
I'll do my best.
Finally, as a leader,
Please tell us how you feel about this performance.
Yes, that's right.
Since I'm the leader,
I'll play the song I want to play.
Think about it properly.
I want to make it a performance
where everyone can see
a new side of me.
Thank you.
That's it for the members' talk.
Thank you, everyone.
Thank you.
This is the last segment.
From 2018 to now,
we will look back at the draft, team members, 16th gen, and new members.
Everyone!
Okay.
The draft for the 2nd generation are
Oguri Yui, Sakaguchi Nagisa,
Shitao Miyu, Shimoguchi Hinana,
Chiba Erii, Nishikawa Rei,
Kubo Satone, Inagaki Kaori,
Suzuki Koyomi, Taguchi Manaka,
Nagatomo Ayami, Muto Orin,
Yamaaki Mizuki, Yamane Suzuha,
Maho Akari, and me.
We will have a concert on January 24th.
Thank you.
The latest single,
ZUKI,
How do you feel about looking back on AKB's history so far?
Yes, really.
No matter how many years I look back,
I felt that it was shining.
I'm really happy to spend my 15th anniversary as a member of AKB.
I hope we can make a lot of fun history in the future.
Yes, so I'd like to look back on the history.
Here are the main events from 2018.
In March 2018, the AKB48 Group Center Exhibition was held.
In April 2018, the AKB48 solo concert was held in Saitama Super Arena for the first time in two years.
In December 2018, Yui Yokoyama invited Miyon Mukaichi to direct the 13th anniversary special performance.
In July 2019, the first solo nationwide tour was held for the fourth time.
In December 2019, Minami Minegishi announced his graduation at the 14th anniversary performance.
In January 2020, the YouTube personal channel was opened.
In March 2020, the 57th single, Thank you for being with me, was released.
In April 2020, the OUC48 project began.
In July 2020, the limited message song, Hanarete itemo was released.
In November 2020, the AKB48 e-sports festival was held.
It's been a long time since I joined in 2013, so I think it's a second-generation year.
I'll do my best as a second-generation member.
From 2018 to 2020, there was a solo tour as AKB48.
I think it was a very impressive year.
We were active as a team.
We were active as a team and had a concert as a whole.
I think we had a lot of concerts.
Nagisa Sakaguchi, have you started your own YouTube channel?
I've been able to edit my own videos lately.
I'm so happy every time I get more followers.
How about you, ZUN?
It was a very deep year.
What did you do this year?
From 2018 to 2020, there was a solo concert.
We had a team tour.
We did the OC48 project.
Please listen to the story.
I'd like to ask you about the songs you want to play.
Is there anyone who wants to play a song?
Kurumi Suzuki.
I...
I like the song of the album called KISS CAMPAIGN, and it's a three-person unit, but I like it so much that I've played it once by myself, but I feel like I want to do it with a proper unit of three people, so I'd like to do a cute song like that while taking advantage of the freshness with everyone because it's fresh because it's fresh, so I'd like to do KISS CAMPAIGN.
That's right.
It's a lot less this year, isn't it?
That's right.
There are only about 10 songs.
Someone said yes.
Yes.
Is it Sutao?
Yes, it's Sutao.
It's kind of like choosing your own generation, isn't it? I feel like there are a lot of young people who are in the center, so I think there are a lot of centers among the members, so I thought it would be fun if we could make a song that everyone is in the center.
That's right.
Rei-san and Generation Change are also songs that are perfect for this year.
What do you think? Is there a song you want to try?
Me?
Yes.
I'm going to be a unit, but I want to do a tour full of smelly things.
I want to do a cute and energetic song with everyone.
I want to do the strongest twin tail.
I want to do sustainable.
I haven't performed a lot of youth Takapo, so I want to do it.
I hope it's an energetic and bright concert.
How about Manaka?
I'm sorry it's easy to understand.
This song was written by the members of Produce 48.
There were a lot of members with good styles.
I want to do it with Kurumi.
I want to do it with everyone.
Kurumi is being dragged in.
I'm sorry it's easy to understand.
Manaka and I don't have good styles.
How about Maho?
I'm the youngest member to join Produce 48.
I was a fan of the album song.
I've always loved this song.
I love the surface tension of tears.
I'm not good at dancing, so I thought it was a dance song.
I've never performed the song I wrote for the first time.
I really wanted to do it.
How about Orin?
I don't want to do it, but I want to do it.
I'm an idol, so I want to do a solo performance.
I want to do a solo performance and cheer for everyone.
I want to do it.
That's a good idea.
How about Ayami?
I really like the song.
The director and the captain usually sing it.
I thought it would be nice to sing it together.
I'm glad.
How about Eri?
As Nishikao said, I want to do a cute song.
I want to do a cute song with everyone.
Personally, I really like the song.
I want to do it with everyone.
A lot of songs have been released.
The first generation team was led by Oya.
Who is the leader of this team?
Kaori is in the picture.
It's impossible.
Is it Riko?
Who is it?
It's impossible.
Yui, who do you like?
I like Hinana.
What do you think, Hinana?
She's a little more mature than me, so I feel a little more like a senior.
I don't know if I can get used to it this time, but I'll do my best.
Hinana, do your best.
Is there anyone who wants to compete with Rikoho or Hinana and say, I want to do it?
Sato-nee-san?
I don't know.
Sato-nee-san?
I don't think so.
Then I'll go with Hinana, who is the most mature.
I want to do my best to push everyone.
Do your best.
Thank you.
Hinana, please tell us how you feel about this concert.
I think it's a selection with a lot of next- generation members.
I want to do my best to show you a lot of new things.
I want to be one of the 16 and do my best.
Thank you.
It's time to end the talk with these members.
Thank you, everyone.
Thank you.
Now, we've looked back on AKB48's 15 years.
Once again, it was amazing.
There were so many things.
There was a lot of things.
There were stories we didn't know about.
There were no years without anything.
AKB48 is like that.
We have an announcement for the fans.
Here it is.
We'd like to introduce the 15th anniversary goods.

That's right. It looks really strong.
Thank you!
Next up is...
This is something that even the members don't know about.
What is it?
We have an announcement for the members.
Director Mukaichi Mion.
Please.
Hi!

I'm a little nervous, too.
It's remote here, but...
I'd like to announce the nominations for the researchers.

You turned on the video because you could hear me, right?
That's right!
Congratulations!
Mai-chan!
Eh?
I thought I wouldn't be chosen because I was called by the draft researcher,
but I was really surprised.
I think I have to work harder because I passed,
and because I was called,
I'm not worried about passing, but I want to do my best from now on.
Let's do our best! Congratulations!
Thank you very much.
So, the members of IZONE will be promoted to regular members with today's date.
Congratulations!
It's been a while since I was promoted, but I'd like to hear your comments one by one.
First of all, Furukawa Nazuna-chan, congratulations!
Thank you, Nazuna-chan!
I'm glad.
Please be honest.
I'm eating dinner right now.
I can't believe it.
What?
I'm sorry.
Now?
I can't believe it.
I didn't think it would happen.
I'm really surprised.
I will do my best to play a more active role in the team.
Thank you very much.
Congratulations!
Next is Honda Sora-chan.
Congratulations!
Thank you very much.
I thought I couldn't be promoted while I was in AKB.
I've always wanted to be promoted.
I didn't think it would be today.
I'm so happy to be able to participate in the next tour as a member of AKB.
Thank you.
You did a great job.
Next, Team K.
Megumi Nagano, congratulations.
Congratulations, Megumi.
Thank you.
I was wondering if I would be alone at the next concert.
I'm so happy to be able to participate in a concert as a member of AKB.
I'll do my best from now on.
Thank you.
Let's do our best, Megumi.
How do you feel?
As the captain of Team K, please say a word to Megumi.
Megumi has been a member of AKB since she was a student.
She always remembers the positions.
She always gives her opinion to the seniors of Team K.
She was very supportive.
I'm happy to be able to work with Megumi in Team K.
Let's do our best.
Congratulations.
Next, Team K.
Sena Ishiwata.
Sena, congratulations.
How do you feel?
Thank you.

Thank you.
I decided not to cry when I was announced as a member of Team K.
I was so happy to hear everyone's congratulatory messages on LINE.
I'll do my best to contribute to Team K.
I've learned a lot and I've had a lot of trouble, but I think I've finally reached the starting line so that I can make the most of what I've learned over the past three years.
I want to do my best to bring out a new side of me. Thank you.
Congratulations!
Team 4 has four winners, but I'd like to ask Captain Yuiri Murayama to say a few words to everyone.
Congratulations on your nomination!
Team 4 had a lot of people, and there were 8 performances due to COVID-19, so there weren't many opportunities to give the students a chance.
However, I saw that everyone was working hard on social media and communicating with fans, so I think I'll learn a lot as a new member.
I didn't have much time to spend with you, and I was lonely, so I'd like to get closer to you.
I'm looking forward to working with Team 4. Thank you.
Please take care of us.
The concert at TDC was announced today.
We will do our best as AKB48 members.
Please take care of us.
Finally, Director SOU's Mion.
Yes.
Lastly, please tell us your enthusiasm for the 15th anniversary of AKB48.
First of all, congratulations to all the students.
Actually, I wanted to do a concert at the theater and announce it on stage in front of the fans,
but I'm really sorry that it's remote.
But as you can see, our generation has a lot of members who have come in longing for the old AKB.
The current 16th generation and the 3rd generation of Draft
I think they auditioned and came in after seeing the AKB we were in.
As a researcher for three or four years, I think I was able to keep working hard and now I have a dream of promotion.
I was really happy to see it.
I think all the efforts and tears of all the members who have been in AKB so far have made history in the past 15 years.
I really say it many times, but thanks to the staff who support us and the fans who support us,
we were able to welcome today.
Thank you very much.
There were a lot of things that I couldn't think of this year,
but it's not just us.
All over Japan, all over the world, we're all the same,
so I want to do my best to connect with a little more sympathy and courage.
Starting with TDC in January next year,
I want to do a lot of things that I couldn't do this year
I would like to liven up the anniversary year.
AKB48 promises to make it a better year than this year,
so I would like to ask the fans to continue to support us.
Thank you very much for today.
Thank you very much.
That's why.
Yes, well, I've been sending it like this,
but that's it for the 15th anniversary broadcast of AKB48 Theater.
All the members in the theater.
How was today's broadcast?
All the members who participated remotely.
All the members on the first floor.
Shall we all gather?
Oh, there you are!
There's a lot of people.
Although it's remote, we connected with 99 members online and had a 15th anniversary stream.
How was it today?
We were able to celebrate our 15th anniversary thanks to the staff who have been working hard,
the members who are working hard with us, the staff who support us, and the fans who support us.
Although we couldn't meet our fans for a year until our 15th anniversary,
we were able to realize that we were able to work thanks to the fans who have been supporting us all the time.
From now on, we will work harder with AKB48.
Thank you.
Looking back on AKB's history today,
there are so many things that I can't talk about here alone,
and I think it's not enough.
But we look back on the songs at the next concert.
So I want to continue to walk with AKB's history and make it with the members.
I want to make 2021 a more fun year.
Thank you for today.
Looking back on our 15th anniversary, there were a lot of things that we didn't know about and things that we got to know for the first time.
There are a lot of scenes that our seniors have seen, but there are also a lot of members who have never seen such a big scene.
I want to do my best so that we can continue to see such scenes in the next 16 years.
Thanks to the fans and staff who always support us, AKB48 has been able to work.
I hope we can continue to work without forgetting our gratitude.
Thank you very much for today.
I'm Momoka Onishi.
Today, I was able to look back on the history with all the members.
I think it's a great honor to be able to work with such a historical group.
We want to create a new AKB48 from now on.
I want to do my best so that many people will know that this is AKB48.
We will do our best, so please support us.
Thank you very much.
The 15th anniversary has a very deep history.
I would like to ask Minami Minagishi, who has been running with us as the only initial member.
I'm sorry. Even though I announced my graduation last year, I can't do this.
First of all, thank you to all the fans who have supported AKB48 for 15 years.
Sometimes I run as a member, and sometimes I stop.
I've experienced a lot of things.
I think it would be a better team if all the members could see each and every event that happens to AKB.
I'm sure AKB will be a group that can deliver a lot of energy if we can do it with this number of people.
I hope everyone will be happy and frustrated this year.
I'll be with you until my graduation.
Thank you very much.
Thank you for your support for AKB48 for 16 years.
The details of the TDC Hall Concert, which will be held from January 22nd to 24th, 2021, will be announced on the official blog of AKB48 at 9 p.m. today.
We look forward to your visit.
Thank you very much.
In addition, on December 31st, we are planning to hold a New Year's party to commemorate the 15th anniversary of AKB48 Theater.
It's our first attempt.
It means that we can perform on New Year's Eve, so please check it out.
Thank you very much.
See you again.
Bye-bye!
