Thank you for your hard work.
Today, I would like to tell you an important story for AKB48 from now on.
I will move from here.
Excuse me.
There are a lot of seats.
What is this?
It's like a concert.
What?
What's going to start?
I don't know.
Please.
Great.
AKB48 started in 2005.
From the 61st single,
we decided to work with Universal Music.
We've been watching AKB48's activities
from a little distance.
We are honored to be able to work with you this time.
We will do our best to make a new history with you,
so please look forward to it.
It will be the first single from Universal Music.
AKB48's 61st single.
The release date has been decided,
so I will announce it here.
The release date of AKB48's 61st single
is April 26, 2023.
I would like to announce the selection members of AKB48's 61st single.
Team A.

Please come forward.
Please take off your mask and come forward.

That's all for the AKB48 61st single.
The 16th member to be selected.
I still don't know what I'm good at or what I'm good at.
But I will do my best to catch up with my seniors.
Thank you.
My one goal as an AKB48 member was to be selected.
I was surprised that I was chosen so soon.
I'm very happy.
I will do my best not to let other seniors down.
Thank you.
The center of the AKB48 61st single is...
Honda Hitomi
I'm Honda Hitomi.
First of all, thank you so much for choosing me as the 61st center.
I never thought I would be able to join AKB and stand at the center twice, so I'm really happy like a dream.
I joined AKB in April of this year, and it's my 10th year.
Since I was given the opportunity to be the center, I want to make the most of my experience so that I can convey the goodness and charm of AKB to many people.
I will continue to do my best. Thank you.
