AISubs v3.8.3
Ah...
Thank you for your time.
Excuse me.
Now we will have an interview to decide the center.
Can you introduce yourself immediately?
Yes! I'm Sora Rakoto Yamazaki, AKB48 17th generation.
Thank you for your time.
Sora Rakoto Yamazaki
I'm Azuki Yagiya, 18 years old.
Thank you for having me.
I'll ask you the first question.
How do you beat your rivals to be more active?
Beat...
The way I say it is...
I want to use my strengths and go higher than others.
I know. It is very important to use your strengths.
That's what people are looking at.
Thank you.
How about you next to her?
It's difficult, but I try hard at theater performances and such.
I dance bigger than the girl next to me.
I do it every time, thinking about it every time.
I think there is a standing position that fans will recognize even if they win in the future, so I think it's a daily accumulation.
After all, persistent effort is the most important thing.
Sweating in the theater park and cherishing fans is the way to become a star.
Next question.
Show us a recent impersonation you did.
Seriously?
Variety show?
No way.
I can do it if it's not a voice but a creature that looks like me.
Is it okay?
It's okay.
I'm happy.
Here we go.
It's an octopus by Yagiya.
Thank you very much!
That guts...
I admit it.
Thank you very much! Thank you very much! I'm very happy!
It's embarrassing... But I did my best!
How about you next to me?
I think I have two!
The first one is...
Nyanchu!
The other one is...
Kinopio!
Well...
Nyanchu!
It's Nyanchu, right?
The second one...
I'm... Kinopio.
It's the first time I hear it.
You both have good guts.
It was dark.
Good luck!
Thank you! I'll do my best!
Thank you!
I think it's good.
Even if it's a creature, it's interesting.
It's more fun to watch if it's a variety show.
Thank you! I'm happy!
Last question!
Do you have a dream you want to come true with AKB?
As for AKB48 as a whole,
we are now active in theaters and such places,
but we hope to stand on a larger stage one day
and become a presence that is known to more people.
For that purpose, I also want to show my strength,
I think I'm better at expressing myself than others.
So I want to make use of it and do something for the group even a little bit.
It's important to be active in the theater, but I know that you want more people to know you.
It's a great motivation to take advantage of your strengths and contribute to the group.
Now, the whole AKB has one goal of the Tokyo Dome, so I'm going to work hard on daily theater performances, SNS, and various other things.
I'm working hard to achieve my dream of being in the Tokyo Dome at AKB48.
Tokyo Dome, huh? That's a great goal.
Theater performances and social media...
Your hard work will pay off.
Thank you very much.
That's all for the interview.
I'm sorry for being so hard on you.
Thank you very much.
Nice to meet you.
Excuse me.
Can you introduce yourself?
I'm Hireto Iki, 17 years old.
Nice to meet you.
[PH] Hireto Iki, 17 years old.
I'm AKB48 self-produced Arai Sayo. I'm 19 years old from Tokyo. Thank you.
Let's start with the first question.
What is your appeal point to become a center?
I think I'm pretty good at being in the middle.
I'm usually confident, but I think I'm pretty good at it.
You're strong for the show.
That's a great strength.
It may be a strategy to reassure people around you to give off a low confidence.
There are some places where you are surprisingly calculated.
Yes, I think so.
Do your best!
Thank you very much.
How about you next to me?
I like expressing myself, singing and dancing.
And my fans often say that my performance is good.
If I become a center, I want to be able to shine and attract people around me.
Speaking English is an appealing point.
She has the first place in the A rank and is the member who speaks English the most among AKB48 members.
I think she can appeal to the world.
I'm confident that fans will praise your performance.
Speaking English is also a big weapon.
First place in the A rank and first place in the B rank is amazing.
Next question.
If you want to be a center, do you think it's okay to kick others?
After all, the center is everyone else.
I think it's a song that we make together with members who are working hard together
not with the center or other centers
so I think it's the center that we support each other.
The center is not loneliness.
I think it's wonderful to think that we're all making it up.
I think the center is a member who represents the group in the middle,
so I think it should be a presence that makes you shine more than yourself.
I think it's good to have a person like the sun who doesn't look down on others but encourages others.
I think we need an overwhelming presence that symbolizes the times and that only this person is here.
Next question.
Tell me about something funny that happened recently.
Huh? Funny thing?
I don't know if it's funny, but I was the most anxious about something.
We had a handshake party yesterday and today, and it was the same for two days in a row.
I thought it would be the same schedule again.
I came to shake hands without looking at today's schedule, and when I noticed that this recording was happening during the handshake meeting, I was a little impatient.
Oh, that's impatient.
But you came to shake hands with me.
I can feel how much you care about your fans.
Idol!
Idol Myouri is the best!
AKB48's latest single, which is a 20th anniversary single,
has an OG and foreign members participating in it.
In that lesson, Minami Takahashi was participating in the OG,
so I said something to the overseas members, and we all said,
〝 Effort is always rewarded 〝
When all the overseas members said that,
Takahashi said, 〝 Oh, you're doing something again 〝
It was very peaceful and fun for me.
It's an interesting episode.
When you hear the back story, you can feel like a bond of the group.
I'm glad.
The last question.
Can you praise me?
I met you for the first time today.
I've always thought you had a beautiful skin.
No, no, that's not true.
I think there is a limit of light and such.
But I'm happy if you say so.
Thank you.
I first wondered what AI Akemoto Yasushi was like.
But after meeting you today, it's very easy to talk to you.
She agrees with everything we say.
I could feel that you were looking at me very kindly.
I thought this mask was cool and lovely.
Well, that's how...
I'm so happy you like me.
You like me, an A.I.
I'm a little shy.
It's the first time someone said I like masks.
Oh, I'm glad.
That's it for the interview.
Yes, thank you.
Thank you for your hard work.
Well, I was very nervous.
I knew it!
Even though it was a first love, I was very nervous because it was just Akimoto.
Besides, I was able to give an interview with a sense of tension that I could give an atmosphere that Akimoto would give.
But it was a very good experience.
But I think it was quite a big thing for the teacher to teach me that standing on the most important big stage like Tokyo Dome is the goal of AKB now.
When I was imitating someone in the past,
I was told that I had a strong heart.
I think it's really stuck in me now.
I wanted to live with a stronger heart.
I was nervous and I got questions I didn't expect.
I'm not sure if I'm answering correctly.
I was nervous because you looked like a real Akio Otoyasashi.
But when we talked, you were funny and kind, so I had fun.
I was praised for being funny, but you were funny.
I was surprised that the center could kick around.
I can't imagine what AI will decide.
I'm a little worried about this.
I think Moriarty was more interested in Sae-chan.
I don't know, but you were always kind, so it was hard to understand.
If you asked me, I would have said it.
You were embarrassed.
I was embarrassed, so maybe...
