AKB48!
We're here!
Yeah!
Yes, it's the 20th anniversary of AKB48 in 2025.
AKB48 is a show where we talk about AKB48's best moments in 20 years of history
and how we hope our viewers will love AKB48 more.
Yes, we three 17-year-olds will deliver it again!
Please!
Yes, it's autumn.
What do you think of when you think of autumn?
Appetite!
I know!
Appetite?
When we were students, we said sports and reading were autumn.
But now, we say appetite is autumn.
Right, we say it all the time.
We don't read much.
I don't read much and I don't play much sports.
I guess it's food.
You love eating.
Is there anything you want to do in autumn?
I've been thinking of taking pictures with autumn leaves since I came to Tokyo.
There are many beautiful parks in Tokyo.
I haven't been there because I wanted to go.
I want to go this year.
There are places like Ichonomiki.
I want to go to the park and see the autumn leaves.
I want to have a Halloween party.
That's cute!
Halloween is the same as handshake parties and online talks every year.
It's nice to dress up there,
but I want to dress up and eat sweets with the members.
That's cute! Sounds fun!
I want to wear a moonlight.
It's past September, but I love moonlight dumplings.
I know.
So I want to eat moonlight dumplings.
I know.
But it's getting cooler in autumn.
I want to go on a trip.
I want to go!
I want to go to a hot spring!
Let's go to a hot spring together.
Onsenko?
It's really something.
Viewers, please tell us what you think of autumn in the comments.
Please do.
The theme for this episode is...
The sixth handshake queen match!
As you can see in this episode, this will be the sixth episode.
The previous queens are...
First is Narita Kohina.
Second is Mizushima Miyu.
Third is Iwata Tesaho.
Fourth is Omiu.
Fifth is Omori Maho.
Sixth is Tokunaga Remi.
Fourth is Hanada Mei.
Fifth is Hashimoto Haruna.
So Mizumin has been chosen as the second queen.
That's right.
I'm surprised.
I know.
But since you're the second queen, you can't lose again.
I'll try to win the sixth time as well.
I don't think there's anyone who has won the queen twice yet.
So please aim for the second queen.
I'll do my best too.
Of course you will.
And for the third time,
the reason why there are many queens is because everyone was chosen first.
That's right.
It's peaceful.
It does look peaceful.
It is.
Yes, of course we're all first,
I'd like to decide on a date from now on.
Sure!
Okay, then...
Do you have any memorable moments during the handshake party?
We have many handshakes party every day.
We do it from morning till night.
It's really long.
We go to rural areas and shake hands at a bar.
I think we're the most handshaking idol group.
Yeah, we're the most.
We all shake hands.
There are many memorable things.
What would it be?
There are many unique fans.
There are fans who came all the way overseas for this day.
That's memorable, too.
And fans who come every day.
I think there are many memorable things.
It's a handshake event, so a group is fine, too.
That's true.
I've been to the handshake event in Hokkaido about twice.
But Hokkaido fans can't get on planes or meet up.
So it was fresh and memorable to be able to shake hands in my hometown.
That's true.
And it's going to be filmed in August.
In late August, we held a handshake event in Osaka.
We held a handshake event in Osaka, where you live.
After joining ECO, we went to many places and held handshakes more often.
That's also very memorable.
Yeah, I know.
When we went to the handshake event in Osaka,
there were people from Osaka who came for the first time.
Even though it was their first time, they said,
She said, Welcome back to Osaka!
I thought that warmth was Kansai.
I'm happy that AKB and HKT fans who know idols from those places came to shake hands with me.
I remember that handshake meeting.
I remember it so much and I was happy.
Younger fans are coming more and more.
A younger fan came to see me in a costume of a coming-of-age ceremony.
At that time, I was very happy.
I felt like I was a little older sister.
I was very happy that you wanted to see me in that form.
I felt like I was very grateful.
We make up for the handshake party, of course.
But for fans to buy clothes, do makeup and style their hair for this day...
I'm happy about that.
Yeah, I'm happy.
I know.
That they dress up for us.
Okay, I'll explain the rules of the handshake party queen decision line.
Okay!
You'll draw a piece of paper with numbers from one minute to four minutes.
You'll respond to the time written on it.
Four minutes is quite...
Four minutes is...
Four minutes is quite... long!
Like, what's up with the handshake?
It's crazy, four minutes.
But there are four minutes, right?
There are.
And the roles of the other party at the handshake party will be played by each member.
The other party can be male or female.
However, the other party should be nervous and not be able to talk much.
Lastly, for the sixth time,
who do you think is suitable for the sixth handshake event?
This is hard.
It is.
I've always wanted to go to a handshake event with other members,
so I'm happy I get to do it today.
Yeah, usually everyone's handshake events
I can't see it because the lanes are different, so I'm looking forward to it.
Are you all ready?
Yes!
I'll go.
Who wants to go first?
Do you want to play rock-paper-scissors?
Yeah.
Anyone want to go first?
Rock-paper-scissors?
Rock-paper-scissors!
You're a good girl, right?
Oh!
Eriko first!
I won!
Then you choose the opponent's role.
Oh, is that okay?
Oh, no!
Then I'll be Misunin.
You're good. You might be good at it.
What? I'm good?
Do you do it in front of me?
You can't talk when you're nervous.
I'll make you trouble.
My heart is pounding.
Okay, then...
Iriko will pull out her hair and the time of fate will be decided.
What will it be?
What time is it?
Oh! One minute!
Yes!
One minute. In one minute, please tell us about your charms.
Are you ready?
Until I shake your hand...
Three, two, one, go!
Hello! Nice to meet you!
You are Eriko!
That's right! I'm Eriko Hashimoto!
Why did you come?
I'm nervous.
I'm happy. Only good clothes make people nervous.
I'm happy.
I want to go home.
You don't want to go home?
I'm nervous.
I won't let you go home.
How old are you?
What? How old was I?
How old?
How old are you? 17 years old?
What? How old was I?
How old? Did you forget?
I forgot.
Did you forget?
Yes.
You look cute in your clothes.
I'm happy.
Thank you.
I'm happy. Will you come again?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Oh! Yay! Will you come again?
I want you to say something that makes me want to come again.
If you come again, I'll say I love you next time.
Thank you. See you.
Wow!
Is it okay?
You were perfect timing.
You're good!
It's nice.
You're smiling at people who don't even tell you their age.
I was doing it like I always do.
It's really fun.
I won't give it back.
It's on camera.
It's like a natural smile.
It's nice.
You're popular.
I'm happy. Thank you.
One minute was just right.
It was a good length.
It was perfect and amazing.
It's safe for the first-time users to do it for about a minute.
It's true.
It's easy for them to speak.
You were good.
How about you, Eriko?
I tried it out in the usual atmosphere.
Some people come to practice nervous.
I remembered that time and tried it out.
Ryu, you were playing a woman's role.
Is it the same for men?
For men, too.
If I'm not good at talking, I ask a lot of questions.
Maybe...
That's nice. It's easier for you to talk.
Shall we continue?
Rock, paper, scissors.
Oh!
You won.
Yuki won.
I'll go.
Yuki, you have three minutes.
I'm scared I'll get 4 minutes.
What if I get 4 minutes?
So, you're Eriko.
Yes, I'm Eriko.
I'll draw first.
I'm scared!
Which one is it?
How many minutes?
4 minutes?!
No, no, no.
Even from this side, it's like, is it 4 minutes?
Um, 4 minutes... Thank you.
Yes, that's right.
Thank you for coming!
For your fans, right?
Yuki-tan, are you ready?
Yes, I'll do my best!
Then, let's start!
Until Yuki-chan's handshake event,
3, 2, 1, go!
Nice to meet you!
I've been waiting for about 4 minutes.
About 4 minutes?!
So many of you came!
I'm so happy!
Yes.
Why did you come?
Well, I saw your profile and thought you were cute.
You saw my profile and thought I was cute? I'm so happy!
Did you like me?
I did.
Did you like me?
I haven't thought about how to talk about you.
I'll ask you a lot of questions, so please answer me.
Yes.
Where are you from?
Well...
I'm from nearby.
You're close! That means you came here by train.
What time did you wake up and come here?
I woke up about 30 minutes ago.
I'm glad you came here for me. Thank you.
Is it your first time coming to an AKB48 singing contest?
Oh, I'm happy! But it must have been difficult to apply, right?
Difficult...
I know, right? But we met like this, so I hope you'll come again.
Yes.
What songs and performances do you like of AKB48?
Songs I like...
Hmm... Songs I like...
Like, you know this song?
Um...
Flying Get.
Flying Get! That's great!
I love it and I've performed it a few times.
Do you always go and ask where the idol is from?
No, I'm not really interested in idols...
You came even though you're not interested in idols?
I'm so happy!
Yes...
I'm so happy and I'm really surprised right now...
Can I ask you for your name?
Ah, ah, your name...
Yes.
Ah, ah, your name...
Are you nervous?
Ah, ah, your name...
You're nervous, aren't you?
I'm Eric.
Eric?!
I'm so happy you came, Eric!
Eric...
Eric, um...
How do you usually go out and stuff?
Go out...
Except for handshakes.
Go out...
Go out, you say?
Go out...
You don't go out?
I don't go out much.
You don't?!
But you still come to handshakes!
I'm so happy that I'm surprised now, Eric.
Are you surprised?
I'm very surprised.
But I'm sure you're doing your best for today.
I think you've been looking forward to it for a long time.
I want to see you again, but what do you think, Eric?
I was looking forward to it, but I don't think I've been able to talk much.
I'm reflecting on myself.
Reflecting?
Are you that humble, Eric?
You surprised me! You are so humble and surprised me. Thank you for coming, Eric.
Thank you.
I think you came to shake hands with us, but next time let's go to the theater or something like that.
I'd like to go.
Please do come. Or maybe Cococarada Park. It's been about ten years since we last went there, so I think it's new and fresh.
Even people who have never been to it will enjoy it.
There are many parks there.
And it's our 20th anniversary tour, so I hope you'll come.
And...
What?
Can you say something that makes you want to go?
Sure.
I'll find you wherever you are, so make sure you come see me.
I'll definitely come!
Yay! I'm so happy!
I'll see you again soon.
Next time, it might be a handshake event or a theater, but please look forward to it.
Time's up!
It was cold!
I thought four minutes would be hard.
But it was totally different from usual.
I'm excited.
Fans are here too.
There are young men who look like they are here.
I think there are a lot of people like that.
I think so, too.
So it's like a reality show.
I agree.
I'm so grateful.
I think you're perfect for it.
When I say my name is Eric,
she says,
[PH] ''Eric?''
Can I ask you for your name?
My name is...
Your name is...
Are you nervous?
My name is Eric.
Eric?!
I'm happy you came, Eric.
Eric...
Eric is...
How do you always...
I'm a little flustered.
Eric...
It was really funny.
I thought it would be nice for the first person to feel like you're leading them to say,
like, okay, next up is the park.
But fans are on social media.
Some fans know me through my classes.
Some fans say it's difficult or scary to apply because they're alone.
I have to catch up with you guys.
You two are good at this.
I'm happy.
You have the perfect timing.
The last one is the queen.
The second queen.
I'm looking forward to it.
I'm excited!
You guys are...
pretty amazing.
What should I do?
Please pull out your paper.
It's time for fate.
Go!
Here I go. My time is...
One minute!
What about the translation?
What should I do? But you haven't done it yet.
Yes, I haven't.
Please do it.
Okay!
I'm nervous!
Well, then...
Let's shake hands with Mizushima Miyu.
Three, two, one...
Go ahead!
Nice to meet you! Thanks for coming!
Nice to meet you!
I'm happy!
I'm happy, too!
Thanks for coming!
Why did you come here today?
You're a little cute...
Are you complimenting me? I'm happy!
I saw you on social media...
I don't see many people finding you on social media.
I'm happy for you.
Please keep checking my social media.
I will.
How old are you?
Same age as you.
I'm happy for you!
You have similar hobbies and habits.
You can talk about many things.
That's right.
Right?
You look cute in your swimsuit.
Thank you very much.
I'd like to talk about swimming suits next time.
Yes, please!
What? You'll do it for me?
I'll be waiting for you to come see me again.
See you! Thank you!
She talks to me so well that I can't even say it.
I think we can talk without any trouble.
She answers my questions so well.
It was easy for me to talk to her.
You're pretty friendly, aren't you?
Right?
Right!
For me, it's just a normal conversation with a fan who comes to see me for the first time.
Right, right.
It's like a doctor's role.
It's difficult.
But it's difficult.
Right?
We've decided who we want to talk about.
So we're going to decide now.
Yes.
Have you decided?
Yes!
Those of you who think it's the best, raise your hand.
One, two...
Eriko!
The sixth handshake event is...
...for Eriko Hashimoto!
Congratulations! Thank you!
How do you feel?
I'm happy.
But...
There are many different types of people at handshakes.
Some people are easy to get nervous, and some people are frank.
I've been shaking hands with a lot of people, so I think I was able to talk a lot.
That's right.
But seriously, Miu's role is more of a role that you two are doing now.
I don't know my age anymore.
I had a special interest in it, but I'm picking it up now.
It was fun.
It was fun and I'm glad I became a natural born smile.
I'm happy. Thank you.
That was the 6th handshake event.
Lastly, we will introduce AKB48's songs.
The theme is AKB48's autumn songs that you want to listen to in the fall night.
I'm sure you have good songs to listen to all the time.
I'll announce AKB48's autumn songs that you want to listen to in autumn.
Everyone, please prepare your flips.
Everyone, let's raise our flips.
Ready, go!
Ta-da!
Not like that.
Not like that, everyone.
Okay, let's start with Mizushima Miyu.
I chose this song,
《Yuhi wo miteiru ka 》
It's a good song.
The reason I chose it is...
First of all, the jacket photo is in the sunset.
Autumn has a beautiful sunset and an orange color.
So I thought the jacket photo was also autumn-like.
My image of autumn is...
I like calm songs more than upbeat songs.
The song is called "Do you see this sunshine?" and I like the lyrics and the tune of the song.
I think it will be a great song to listen to on your way home in autumn.
I hope you will listen to it in autumn.
I know. It makes me think of you.
I know! It's the last song of my movie, the theater performance.
The moment I heard the intro, I felt autumn.
The intro is so good that the scene comes to mind.
I know.
And you look back on what day it was in the middle of the night.
That's right.
And there's a feeling of getting lonely in autumn.
I couldn't tell my family or friends about it.
I didn't want to tell people around me about it.
I had a new life in spring.
I want you to listen to it when you are calm and you can't say what you are worried about.
It's difficult, but the song is fashionable, so please listen to it.
Then, next, Eriko.
I'm an November anchor, but it's a song I really like.
It's November, so I listened to it in autumn.
It's a sad song.
I know.
It's a graduation song.
After a great breakup,
I still like it.
But the person I liked has a ring on the ring finger of the person I liked.
It's a very sad song.
And I personally love the part that Mayu Watanabe always tries to put away her last solo album somewhere.
When I'm lucky, I always think it's November and listen to the November anchor.
Yes, that's what I like about you.
I chose it because I'm repeating it.
That's nice.
It's a graduation song, so I like the lyrics.
I know.
I listen to it.
The title is also in November.
Yes, I want to hear it.
I'm Kim Moksei.
I like it, too.
Yes, it's a song by Team Surprise, and it's a unit song by Atsuko Maeda, Yuko Oshima, and Yuki Kashiagi.
When you say silence, you mean autumn, don't you?
And it's also a song I performed with my seniors for the first time at a concert, and it's a song with a lot of memories.
There are lyrics that say you want to be a flower of life for someone just by existing in lyrics.
Idols are not only existent, but also make fans smile.
I think lyrics are similar to that.
Every word of lyrics touches me.
I know.
The lyrics are so good.
I love it so much.
You can repeat it over and over again.
Yes, yes.
The lyrics are wonderful.
The lyrics cheer me up.
Even if you get lonely in autumn, you can do your best.
I love it and I recommend it.
I see.
I'm talking about goldwood.
When I was in Hokkaido, I never smelled goldwood.
When I looked it up,
goldwood is a tree that you can't avoid in Hokkaido.
And that's the 17-kilo min...
When I had that stream, it was the first scent I smelled with 17-kilo minnets and woodchips.
So I remember listening to this song even at that time.
I was like, this is woodchip!
But it smells really good.
It smelled really good.
There's a woodchip tree in front of my house's front door.
In autumn, each of the nearby trees grow in my house, so it smells like woodchips.
So when I think of gold and wood, I think of autumn.
That's why it caught my eye.
Autumn is nice.
Yes, it is.
Any song is nice, but there are many other songs.
Please leave a comment.
Then, let's listen to AKB48's autumn song for autumn night!
Please listen to it!
Please!
So, how was it, everyone?
Yes, I know.
Next time, at the handshake event,
we'll talk about AKB's autumn songs.
Yes, definitely!
Because we were so worried about it.
Yes, we were so worried!
We had so much to talk about.
There were so many songs, and we were so confused,
but we couldn't choose one.
We really couldn't choose one.
Earlier, in the dressing room, we were talking about which song we thought was better.
I hope you'll come back and listen to the songs that were chosen.
Please come back and listen!
We heard about AKB48 a long time ago.
See you next time!
Goodbye!
