AISubs v3.6
Commentary48!
Let me introduce myself.
I'm Okabe Rin of AKB48.
I'm Oguri Yui.
I'm Akiyama Yuna.
I'm Yugi Azuki.
We're going to host this show again.
Thank you for joining us.
Thank you for having us.
Last time, we watched 13 songs of this concert from the opening.
I'm sure it's your first time doing a commentary like this.
How was it?
I think it was a little difficult because you haven't appeared yet.
Are you okay?
I heard a lot of behind-the-scenes stories.
It was a lot of fun.
I didn't know you were there.
It was a lot of fun.
Finally, these two of the 18th generation will appear for the first time.
I hope you'll pay attention to that, too.
Continuing from last time, we will continue to talk about AKB48 Spring Concert 2023 "Tsukida" and "Sakebo".
This time, I'd like to start with the 14th song "Ribbon".
This time, Azu-chan.
Azu-chan.
Please shake the VTR.
VTR...
Start!
Thank you for answering so smoothly.
Cute.
Let's take a look at "Ribbon".
"Ribbon"!
It's a chair!
Do you use ribbons?
That's it.
"Ribbons", huh?
That's right.
I did it.
A different color ribbon?
Yeah, it was pretty.
Oh, I see.
The costume is cute.
Right?
What costume is this?
I've never seen it before.
Isn't it "Ribbon"?
Oh, I see.
Yeah, it's probably "Ribbon".
This song is good, too.
I know, right?
It makes you want to hum along, doesn't it?
Did they make this with a new machine?
- Yeah. - Oh, a swing.
Ta-dah!
- Oh no, the ribbon... - Ah!
What's going on? It's because of the ribbon!
- That's funny! - Is it okay?
Wow...
A while ago...
This is our personal story, but...
I saw "Future Monsters" and "Ribbon" episodes, so...
- I'm really curious about it. - That's true.
- You need some tips. - It's hard to make it look pretty.
It looks difficult.
So the teacher of "Ribbon" came and taught us how to make it.
- That's right. - We can't make it ourselves, can we?
Wow...
- Wow, it's pretty. - It's pretty.
Wow...
- Is it free-spirited? - Free-spirited acting?
Yeah, it's free-spirited.
It's hard to make something big like this in a theater.
- That's right. - It's not like a concert.
- It's nice. It's dynamic. - Yeah.
- Personally, I wish we had a shooting time like this. - That's true.
- Huh? Was there a shooting time for this concert? - Huh? Shooting time...
- At CYMAST... - Was it there?
- Um... What was it? - Was it there?
- Was it around here? - Um...
- This show was... - Was it at the same place?
- Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. - Oh, yeah, yeah.
- Where was it? - Oh, yeah! I did it! I did it!
- Was it at Sustainable? Oh, was it at Every Decacha? - Yeah!
- It was at the place where we were. - Yeah, we did it there.
- Oh, yeah! - I see.
- It's a recording.
- I like this costume, too. - Yeah.
- Whose costume is it? - Um...
- Costume? - Yeah.
- It's a really senior costume. - A paper airplane?
- I wonder what it is. - It's cute!
- Huh? Wow, there's a video. - Yeah.
- Huh? That's not fair! Huh?! - Yeah, that's not fair.
- Huh? That's cute, but it looks like it's gonna be fun. - It's not fair.
Cute.
- I've never done this. - You haven't? This is fun too. You haven't done it? - No. - No.
- It looks like it. I'm 18. - I want to do it. - Cute. - I want to see you doing the "kyappi kyappi" part. - I want to do it.
- Huh? I don't think I can do it. - Huh?! - As long as you don't do it for me at "kyappi kyappi", I don't think I can do it for you. - You're right, I won't do it.
- You have a strong image of being 16. - I'll do it.
- It's fresh, this song. - Yeah.
- Cute! - Cute!
- Ah, bed! - Bed!
- That's why Zun was sitting! - Yeah.
- It was broken during rehearsal. - It was broken.
- That was really funny. - Yeah.
- Is it okay to say "16"? - Actually, I can hear it a lot.
- Cool.
- Isn't it cute? Using this cushion. - It's cute!
- It's nice.
- I've never been asked to do something like this.
- You don't really perform at concerts, do you? - No, I don't.
- They make me dance. - They make you dance.
- "They make me dance."
- But 8-san, you do a lot of dancing. - Yeah, I do.
- You have a strong image of being 16. - I have a strong image of being 16.
- 16. - Ah!
What should I do...
- Oh no, I just remembered my heart's placard and wrote it like that.
- What should I do?
- I'm sorry I didn't get it in time... - Ah, it's okay.
- No, this is also... - What kind of person is this?
- What? What's going on? What's this? - It's amazing, right?
- What?! - It's alive...
- It's alive, right? - It's alive!
- What's this creature? - It's a monster!
- Amazing! - What's this?
I didn't know there was such a thing.
My back was on it!
But this song has also become a classic, hasn't it?
Yeah, "onsen" too.
Yeah.
It's good, this glue. Yeah, it's good.
This costume is also very cute.
Cute.
What was this?
Oh, gun? No.
I wonder what costume it is.
It's really new.
I wonder if it was made for a concert.
I know! It's for the Ukatel concert.
Oh, I see!
It was made with a telephone.
This costume is winning.
It's cute.
She is cute.
When I wear this costume, I want to put a ribbon on my head.
I'm glad we're friends.
What's next?
My heart is pounding.
Oh, you're 17 years old.
That means it's about time for you two to get married.
My heart is pounding.
Your heart is pounding, isn't it?
I'm waiting in the back.
Yes, my heart is pounding.
Oh, my God!
Stand in line! Stand in line!
I'm standing in line.
Are you okay?
I'm okay.
I don't know what this is.
What is it?
I can see it from behind.
I want to die.
Is it a background?
It's cute!
It's moving.
Wow, it's coming out.
I see.
But you're moving it, aren't you?
Yes, I am.
I see.
Is that so?
It's like, "Change your hands."
It's cute!
This costume is cute, too.
She made it according to the costume.
Oh, I see.
She made it in purple.
Oh, it's cute.
She made it in the same shape as the purple one.
Oh, I see.
This is a combination, so we could wear it as an encore at the end.
Oh, I see.
I see.
I love it.
I love it, too.
(I love you, beautiful love)
Wow, she's so innocent.
Cute.
(I love you, you're beautiful)
So cute.
I can only say "cute".
You're so cute.
This fits your image of a 17-year-old.
You're really cute.
Now, behind the scenes, there is a sudden outbreak.
This is...
Which one is it?
There are people who are lost.
Like Yui.
She's been wandering around all day.
Isn't it bad?
Isn't it Yui?
That's right.
This is embarrassing.
The teacher...
Oh, the teacher comes out.
That's right.
She goes to school.
Wow, there's a teacher.
Mannequin.
I'm embarrassed.
Oh, no, no, no.
What? Are you called by your name?
Yes, one by one.
One by one.
Wow, amazing.
Wow.
Beautiful.
But I can't pull it out.
Can you pull it out?
I can't pull it out.
I can't say anything.
You're so cute.
I gave you my life.
That's right.
One by one.
What a wonderful image.
Right?
What is it?
Wow.
That's nice.
You took it so beautifully.
That's nice.
Refreshing.
I'm embarrassed.
Hey, isn't it beautiful?
Right?
Wow.
It's amazing.
It's like a love story.
What? You're cute.
It's completely different.
You're young.
Already.
You're cute.
It's hot.
I think it's different.
Isn't it?
You've changed a lot.
You're not different at all.
You're hot every day.
I'm a little thin.
You're thin.
I'm thin.
You're cute.
You're young.
But you're so pretty.
Stop it.
How long ago did you take this picture?
But...
Was it very close?
No, but it was about a month ago.
About a month ago.
You've made a lot of preparations.
I see.
But you've all grown up like this in six months.
You're getting cuter and cuter.
That's amazing. It's a Maybee costume.
That's right.
Have you ever worn this costume?
No.
I don't think so.
It's precious.
It's real, isn't it?
It's real.
Whose costume is it?
It's Yuko Oshima's.
That's nice.
What about you, Azu-chan?
It was Kojima-san's costume.
That's nice.
It's a selection.
Yes.
But you can't wear this again, can you?
You can't wear it.
Really.
I think you can only wear it when you're shooting for a costume magazine or when you're releasing special goods.
That's right.
It's precious.
It's amazing.
At the costume store, all the Maybees' costumes were on display.
The costumes you all wore were on display.
That's right.
It's coming out.
My heart is pounding.
Where are you two going?
It was so pretty that I said, "Oh, my God."
Oh, my God.
The color of the band-aid was so pretty.
It looks like this.
Oh, my God.
My heart is pounding.
It's cute.
But it was fun.
Yes.
This costume is so good.
It's the best to dance in a costume like this.
The members also admire it.
I love the costume of the akb.
The impression is different.
It's cute.
It's cute, isn't it?
Yes, it's cute.
It's cute.
They are idols.
They are cute.
They don't look nervous.
Yes, they don't.
On the contrary, some of them are not nervous.
That's great.
After dancing,
everyone was admiring it.
It was fun.
Everyone had fun dancing.
You have a strong heart.
I'm not nervous at all.
We have a close eye contact.
The concert was fun.
That's great.
It was a good start.
The costume is so good.
Me too!
Meiling! Meiling!
She's amazing now. She's discovered and noticed her own cuteness even before her debut.
She's also good at smiling.
I've always thought she was perfect from before she joined.
I know, I know.
I've been studying her since before she joined.
Not at all.
Not at all, right?
It's just that she has such a fun and honest smile now.
Wow!
I mean, she's perfect.
I got so excited just now.
It was really fun.
Oh, I see. It's continuous.
What was the song again?
It's the song we got for the first time.
I see!
Yes, we did.
The song from 2017 and 2018.
That's right!
It's a cute song.
I think we can make a handshake event.
I know!
I don't know if this song is heard by our fans or not, but this song has been playing all the time at our events.
It's been playing all the time.
That's right.
All the time.
I remember it.
Right?
I'm happy that you like this song so much.
I'm happy, too.
It's a classic song.
I see!
Yes.
I like it.
I'm excited.
Me, too.
I like the chorus.
Me, too.
I like the lyrics, too.
Me, too.
Everyone's doing "hey" in the background.
Yeah.
Oh, they're separated.
That's right!
They're separated like this.
They're dancing.
Oh!
Eighteenth month is eighteenth month.
It's a dance battle!
But the rhythm is different.
I'm a little tired.
Lose!
You can do it!
This was fun, too, Yuna.
Yeah!
It's kind of nice.
You can only do this at a concert.
That's right.
You can't do it at a theater, can you?
That's right.
It's not 16 people.
That's right.
Hey! Hey!
17, 18 year old fans, which song do you like the most so far?
This song is...
Is it this one?
Yes, it is.
It's been popular for a long time.
I haven't been able to sing it much recently.
People say, "I want you to sing it."
Oh, really?
Is it the most popular song you've ever heard?
People say that a lot.
It's exciting, so I want you to sing it for me.
Yes, I'd like to hear it.
It looks like fun, so I want to do it.
I'm looking forward to it.
It sounds like an 18-year-old song.
Do you sing it?
I'm a genius.
I'm getting goosebumps.
I want you to sing it.
Oh, this costume.
Do you like it?
Yes, I like it.
I love it.
It's my favorite costume.
Oh, really?
I've always liked it the most.
I want you to wear it.
I definitely don't like it.
I think you can wear it for a naked photo shoot.
I like it.
You can wear it.
Right?
I'm nervous.
This is...
Can you wink for me?
No, I can't wink because I haven't done it yet.
I'm sorry.
I made a mistake.
I was winking.
It's perfect.
It was perfect.
Is "catchphrase" also your first performance?
Yes.
You were doing it before.
It's been a while since I did it.
It's my first time.
That's right.
I'm 17 years old from Tokyo.
Nice to meet you.
That's nice.
Okay.
Is it here?
Kasumi, it's here!
Over there, right?
Kasumi, Kasumi.
It's here.
I remembered.
Kasumi, your voice is sexy.
That's right.
Okabe-san is smirking.
I'm happy. You like me so much.
Really?
I like you so much.
You're cute!
I'm embarrassed.
You're cute!
I'm embarrassed.
Really?
I'm embarrassed.
I ate popcorn all the time.
You're cute!
Girls' Drive?
Yes.
I see!
This ribbon is cute!
It's cute!
Whose is it?
I don't think I've seen it before.
I don't think it's Katano's.
I wonder who it is.
Takamina-san?
Is it not?
It does look like it.
It's cute.
I don't like it.
I was nervous.
Your voice is low.
You're cute!
Your bangs are tight.
It's fine.
I was nervous.
Your gaze is good.
My gaze...
You're cute!
How do I look?
You're cute!
I can feel your kindness.
You're cute.
I can't see you.
You're cute.
You're rude.
I was really nervous at the time.
You were next to me, weren't you?
Oh, yeah.
I thought you were next to me.
You were smiling and cute.
Yuna was smiling all the time.
Azu and Yuna.
Thank you!
You're calm!
You're too calm.
I was wondering if you'd been there all along.
We're not that quiet when we're in the middle of something.
Please say something beautiful.
I'm not in a position to say that yet.
I'm in a position to say that now.
I think it's best to challenge yourself.
I think it's attractive for everyone in their 18s to dance and have fun.
Eri, you're helping me, too.
I'll do my best!
That's a comment from a senior.
I won't be late for something like this.
It's too reliable.
It was a stage where I could be at ease at all.
Thank you very much.
Oh, I see! It's just Eri!
That's right!
It was a chaos.
Oh, I see.
They're all coming out of the audience seats.
Do you show it like this?
The audience seat.
Don't you show it?
Oh, it's a video of a fan.
It's amazing!
How was the audience seat? Was it fun?
It was fun.
I was happy to see people who had their own houses for the first time.
The moment you found it.
It's amazing.
Are you coming with me?
No, I'm not coming with you.
You'll get lost.
When you come, you can walk around with your friends.
When you first walk in a big audience, you'll get lost, right?
Yeah, it's normal.
I can't go home.
I'm so into it.
Oh, it's a sign.
It's a heart.
Cute.
The fans are interested in where their buttons will move.
That's right.
Alice, you're so cute!
You look like you're having fun.
There it is!
I found it!
I just found it.
Oh, you did?
Yes, I just found it.
Mine is also a starfish.
Oh, you're so cute!
It's so funny.
You're so cute!
"exclusive" (dokusen)
Sounds fun!
Let's play!
Fans are busy, too.
There are more and more faces in front of you.
That's right. I wanted to say it, but I'm sorry it was against the rules of the game.
Didn't you notice it until I said it?
What?
It said, "Don't worry about it."
That's right.
But I thought you'd want to talk about it with this message card.
Please tell me you got it right.
I see.
There are people who like it when you say it.
That's right. I'm happy.
It's cute.
The fans are moving too much and it's taking longer than I'm moving.
I want you to move, too.
It's very appealing.
I love you.
Oh, you're cute!
You're cute!
Ah, I found a good one!
You're so funny, Sana-chan!
Are you watching this person?
Look at that person in the mirror!

Wow, that's awesome, guys!
That's nice.
Cute!
I think it's from "desert club".
Cute.
This costume is amazing.
Cute.
It's not really AKB.
It's not surprising.
Cute.
It suits you, Rin-chan.
Really?
It suits you so well.
I was so embarrassed.
I love Ponytail so much.
I'm so happy.
I think I got your jersey.
I got it.
Really? Thank you.
I have it at home.
I'm sorry.
It's so cute.
Cute.
It suits you.
I'm embarrassed.
I watched the music video a lot.
It's so cute.
It's cute.
Is this choreography difficult?
The chorus was a little complicated.
I see.
By the way, the teacher who choreographed this song gave me this song.
Every move has a choreography.
Right.
There's not much break.
There's not much choreography.
Every sound has a choreography.
It's busy.
That's right.
It's easy for each person to see because it's a small number of people.
That's right.
At times like this, they make each person stand out.
I even went to get some of these long leaves.
You went to get leaves?
I didn't have a camera.
I thought you were going to pick them up.
I know, right?
But it's really nice, isn't it?
Right?
There were a lot of donuts and it was cute.
Right?
I'm happy.
I've been pretending not to think about it.
It's fast to remember, but it's also fast to forget after doing it at a concert.
That's right.
It may be difficult for me to say "please make up for it yourself".
I'd like you to tell me.
It's over safely.
Cute.
Next one?
This costume is amazing.
It's a gradation.
That's right.
It's calculated.
This song is a rare song.
It's not like AKB.
That's right.
It's like AKB with everyone's voices.
That's right.
It's also a dance song.
That's right.
It's a dance song.
It's surprisingly difficult.
I saw it for the first time during rehearsal.
I was surprised with everyone.
I was surprised.
Who is this?
This is also an ordinary person.
That's right.
It's difficult.
Yuka is busy at school, so it's hard for her to give lessons, but she definitely completes the concert perfectly.
This song is good.
It's good, isn't it?
Wasn't it cute just now?
The arrangement is cute.
She was punching.
She made a heart.
A real heart.
A 3-dimensional S.
Oh, I see.
I want you to do a lot of this, too.
The song is good, isn't it?
It's exciting.
I like it.
I want to go to St. Stage!
Me too!
Come on out!
It's difficult and I have it all the time.
Yeah.
I like this part.
The connecting part.
Yes.
The lyrics are difficult, too.
It was really hard.
Oh, really? Did you sing it?
For "sanial" shooting, we had to put in the chorus the day before.
Oh!
The lyrics, too.
Oh!
It was really difficult.
But for "akdrl"...
Yeah.
The day before...
If it's the day before, it's better, right?
The day of shooting?
Yes, the day of shooting.
Until now, we gathered at 5 in the morning and started with the chorus at 6.
Even in the middle of shooting, the lyrics keep changing.
Because it's written for us at the time.
Wow!
It changes and it arrives at the time.
And we respond to it and shoot it.
Yeah, it's like a music video.
It's like "akdrl".
Oh, what's next?
Oh!
No, it's "ale".
"Ale".
It's "ale", right?
"Ale" is...
"out of hope"...
You guys know English very well.
English!
You know English, right?
Because it's the next song...
Yeah.
Oh!
Oh, this person!
That's right.
I don't know him.
He's a new producer.
This is where we gathered from the general public, right?
That's right!
That's why there are general people who came for this.
Yeah, that's right.
But I thought about what would happen to akdrl at first.
I thought about whether akdrl itself would be okay.
I think there are a lot of people who don't like it, and I don't have the time to make a single, but I'm scared.
I've been to a Korean audition show before, so I have an image of a harsh audition.
Speaking of auditions, I have an image that it is already tough.
I think it's a really dangerous situation, and it's not easy for me to get up there.
I think it's my last chance.
I was depressed and cried many times after that.
I feel happiest when I perform.
I like it, so I want to train my performance more.
I want to participate in the audition.
I made this song for this audition.
I want you to remember the full chorus of the dance.
It's hard.
It's really hard.
As a member, I'm relieved because it's a rehearsal room I always go to.
That's right.
It's different from an ordinary audition.
I feel a little relieved.
It's nostalgic.
It's been a while.
I've never done it before.
That's right.
It's before the performance.
I see.
I'm scared.
I'm too nervous.
The venue and my head are getting funny.
That's right.
I'm nervous.
It's a mixture of various things.
I'm sleepy.
It's very rare for you to have a stomachache.
It's very rare.
I have a stomachache, so I can't do it.
The reason is cute.
No.
48 people.
But there were various things.
There were various things.
That's right.
How far has the program progressed at this point?
Some of them have already fallen to some extent, and some of them have risen to some extent.
That's right.
But for the next screening...
That's when it was.
That's right.
But it was a time when it was progressing to some extent.
There was a time when it fell a little, wasn't there?
Was there a time when it fell before this?
Was this the first one?
I did it after this.
I see.
Yes.
Who's in the center at this time?
I'm not in the center, but for some reason I'm in zero.
Really?
You did it.
That's amazing.
You did it.
That's right.
It doesn't have a stand yet. It doesn't have a stand yet.
It's clear.
There was a group, so the costumes were different for each group.
Oh, I see. I didn't know that.
That's right. That's right.
But it hasn't come out yet.
It's for the next group of new members.
Oh, it's coming out.
It's coming out.
It's a bunch of kids.
That's amazing.
That's right.
Oh, that's amazing.
That's a lot of people.
I don't think there will be more than 48 people.
That's right.
Everyone is dancing big.
It's like an overall song.
That's right.
I think the general public is nervous, too.
I'm sure they are.
It's cool.
It's a lot of people.
That's right.
It's cool.
Yeah, it's cool.
AKB and...
The song is different, isn't it?
The dance is cool, too.
This voice is the voice of senior members, isn't it?
I've heard of it.
That's right.
There are quite a few 16th generation singers.
That's right. There are a lot of 16th generation singers.
That's right.
Nagi is also in it.
This is Nagi's voice, isn't it?
That's right.
Wow, it really is different.
Wow, I'm glad. I'm happy.
Happy?
Happy, happy.
But this time, the result of this out-of-net result came out, but even children who fell in general also translate in other places.
That's right.
They do it.
They do it, don't they?
I'm glad.
It's amazing.
I'm glad. I'm glad you're doing your best.
I love it.
I'm also participating as an MC, but Serika is also participating as a member, isn't she?
That's right. How about you guys?
No, from the moment I met you for the first time, you have amazing eyes and you have a lot of motivation.
When I saw you passing by, I thought you were all good at it and I thought you were amazing.
Now, please introduce yourselves and tell us about yourselves one by one.

- They worked hard. - Did they do the make-up themselves?
- Themselves? - Did they do it themselves?
I'm sure it's their own faces. Did they get their hair done?
If that's the case, it's the usual thing, but I heard it was hard to do the make-up.
- Yeah, but they're all good at it. - Yeah.
- Themselves? - After we finished...
- After we finished preparing... - Oh, I see.
- While we were coming... - Oh, you were doing it.
- I was busy. - That's amazing.
I'm...
A.K.A.48...
A.K.A.48 fan, 13 years old...
- I thought you were a cute mochari. - I'm a mochari.
- My costume is... - My costume is...
- A waistcoat. Thank you for having me! - Thank you for having me!

What wonderful words.
They must have practiced a lot, these comments, too.
They're all so firm.
They were all really good girls.
Yeah.
Really good girls.
Every day, I...
came to our usual lesson studio and practiced every day.
It was amazing.
It was.
We were proud of ourselves.
Even if we couldn't use the lesson studio,
we came to practice over there.
In this room.
Oh, you're filming this right now?
In this room.
Yes!
So we've seen it all!
This was your first time standing on this stage,
and it was also the first time you saw each other's debut moment.
How was it for you two?
It was our first time standing on stage as 18-year-olds.
Yes.
You were nervous, weren't you?
The most memorable thing for me was
when we came out of the room,
and seeing CYRIUM for the first time was amazing.
And now that I think about it...
I don't know...
I was so moved.
I know, right?
In theaters and such, you get to see your fans up close.
There's a lot of joy in seeing them up close,
but for a big concert like that,
even if it's a little far away,
the scenery is always amazing.
For me too, it was my first time singing "Tokyo Go"
and performing "To 47 wonderful towns"
from the center stage.
At the time, I felt like I was looking at a planetarium.
I know!
I know that feeling so well.
I'm so moved by the fans who come and support us.
Thank you!
Our next song is our 26th song "Motokare",
so we hope you'll check it out!
Look forward to our next episode!
Look forward to it!
