Get along with each other! Get close with each other! Get energetic with each other! Meeting!
This is the 25th time we have invited this person for our show. Please introduce yourself!
I'm Oguri Yui of AKB48!
Thank you for having me!
Yay!
Yaho!
I'm getting called!
You are!
I've been watching you and wondering when you're going to call me.
But I think it's because of this Oh My Pumpkin period.
Yes, you're right.
I'm happy you called me.
where should we call you?
I was thinking about it and I thought it would be around the end of the year for a moment
but I thought I could talk to you during the single period
so I asked you for your help at this timing.
So I'm going to talk about it, but where should I start?
Where should I start?
We've talked about it and interviewed each other, but I don't think we've talked about it on video.
You're a real MC.
I think it's very fresh.
I think so too.
We used to work with our teammates on AKB and recently.
We often interviewed each other about hot topics like that.
I hope we can talk about that today.
Yeah.
What is it?
First of all, we are in our 8th year.
We are in the same period.
But it's our 12th year.
We have been in AKB for half of our lives.
Wow!
To be honest, I didn't plan on staying in AKB for this long.
I thought I would quit when I was 20.
But I quit right after I joined.
Somehow?
Somehow.
I thought I might quit when I'm about 20.
What?!
I'm happy that I can continue like this.
Yeah.
That's amazing.
I don't know what's going on.
It's a development, isn't it? I don't think so.
Since I joined, I've never heard of the word graduation.
And as I progressed, I had a lot of grateful opportunities.
And I've been chosen by various centers.
And then I started to like akb more and more.
I wanted to improve myself more.
I wanted to make my dream come true.
As I was doing it, I realized that it had been 12 years.
It's amazing.
I graduated about three times.
I thought about graduating.
I graduated about three times.
I might have been a little older.
My first impression of you was...
you were a bad girl.
I was playful.
We were just playing around and having fun.
We were one of the youngest in the group.
Out of eight of us, we were the youngest.
But as we grew up, we started to have more and more feelings for each other.
We saw that our feelings for the group were spreading more and more.
Yunaru has been calm since then.
When you joined us, right?
Yeah, she was calm when we joined you.
But now, it's hard for me to approach them.
I was already conscious of it.
At first, we were like, let's have fun together.
It was like a school class.
It was like that kind of tension.
But now, some of them are like, let's do it seriously.
There were some girls who were determined to go to the center, go for the penalty.
It was a year that we were able to disperse in a way.
I think we were like that from the beginning.
We didn't have many opportunities to talk about it because the regions were different.
Yui said it herself, but as a starting point,
we had a concert in Tokyo Dome City at the first anniversary of 8.
A new born child becomes a center.
I didn't experience being a center there.
I felt like I came from there at once.
It's there, it's crazy.
I think so too.
From there, I thought, oh, the center is like this scenery.
And when I was doing this, I became a team member on a dream route among my teammates.
We became together little by little.
But we started to talk like this and improve our group recently.
Yeah.
We have our own opinions.
We have our own paths.
We are like rivals.
We both know that we are in a position to compete with each other.
That's how it happened.
Of course, we knew each other, but we overcame it.
I know.
I have a feeling of being together in darkness.
I have that for everyone of the same age.
I think there is one more thing.
There are places where we often see the same scenery and there are places where the paths are a little different, so on the contrary, I like it.
I think it's nice, and I'm also a director and I think there are more scenery to see, but before that, I've been stacking it up and looking at it.
I feel like we've been stacking up various experiences and we're getting together now and we're getting together.
I know.
Even if we don't say it out loud,
we can tell each other what we think and what we feel.
I know.
We know what we're thinking, but can we tell you what we're thinking?
We can tell what we're thinking with our eyes.
We can talk with our eyes.
It's fun.
We can talk like this.
No one has it.
I think we have just the right relationship.
We are here because we have experienced a lot of things.
I don't know what is the real frustration, but I think it's like this because I'm looking at it from the outside.
You're predicting my story.
But we both can do it.
I also do it.
Like, I think Yui has been doing this experience for a long time.
Or, I think she thought of it at that time.
I didn't know about it, but I feel it now.
I think...
we all have to say to the director...
That's right.
I'm not teaching, but I'm in a position where I have to say,
Well, there's also a way to put it together.
Everyone can do it, but basically it's the position of the director.
I've said it once in a while, but recently I've been doing it more like that.
When I think and say it
of course I have to do it properly
and I feel various responsibilities
and when I think that director Sou has this kind of feeling, it's hard.
I noticed that there is a selection system when I was 47 or when I was in uniform.
I noticed it.
I didn't notice it.
I say it sometimes, but it doesn't make sense.
I was chosen before I knew it.
Everyone.
Yes, yes.
For me, during each event,
I was given a standings and songs.
I was concerned about my position.
Because of that, I went to the beautiful town in 1947.
Of course, I got songs from all of us, but I chose the members who sang the best.
Same for Seifuku no Hane.
It's a song for all of us,
The girls who sang the most weren't from the north.
So I realized that this is how they evaluate us.
I accepted it at 47.
That's too early!
It's too late!
I was like, why?
I'm usually second.
I was like, why am I second?
In the music video for 47...
I was like, what? I can't see you at all!
I was like...
Should we start with greetings?
We had a website where we took videos of ourselves.
Oh!
We did a lot of greetings in the local area.
I went to Tokyo Station and many other places.
Did you dance to the greetings?
I danced to the greetings!
I took it all, but I can hardly use it at all.
I'm sad.
There are things like that, but I didn't notice it much and I finally noticed it.
Where is it? It's like a dream route.
That's why I've been conscious of it since the beginning.
So I've been conscious of it since summer.
Camp?
It's been a while since I joined, but there's a lot of times when I sing first.
I was like, oh, this is the position.
Then I have to do my best.
The switch has already been turned on.
I felt the responsibility there.
I had to do something about this eight.
I thought clearly.
That's why I'm getting more and more excited, but before that...
At first, I was actually a little shocked.
Why?
I admired AKB and joined AKB48 as a teammate.
We don't work with our seniors, we work on our own.
In this form, we were like,
what? Really?
We were excited, like with our seniors?
I see, I see.
It's not like we imagined it,
but it's like we're going to meet them, and we're like, oh, I see.
Oh, it's different from AKB.
But that's why we didn't have any seniors, and it was a way for us to learn on our own.
We worked together and worked hard.
A lot of people were angry at us.
They were too angry.
They were really angry.
We were reduced in number of songs.
I think we were able to experience it as teammates.
It's because of that experience that even if we have a little problem now, we can overcome it.
You become stronger.
I see.
You become stronger.
Even though we do hard things,
We're laughing and saying we're tired, but we're laughing and saying we can do it.
We have a phase.
Mental strength, physical strength, we're all in it.
The team members who are still here are calm and calm.
We're all calm no matter what happens.
I feel reassured.
I'm nervous.
We still have fans of 8-fan.
I'm happy.
I want to sing if I have a chance.
We're going to have a final round at Budokan.
I'm looking forward to it.
Do you play with your members?
I don't play with my members.
Not really, but recently I go to sauna with Nanaga and Mayumi.
Oh, you go there regularly?
Yeah, I go there when I'm in Nagoya.
What?! Really?!
Yeah.
During a tour?
Yeah.
You go to sauna a lot, don't you?
Yeah.
Who else goes with you guys?
I go with my members a lot, but recently I think Zuki goes there the most.
Oh, really?
There's a group called Kakigoribu, and Taguchi and Min-chan go there too.
Before you knew it?!
Yeah.
They formed a group.
Oh, wow!
I said, let's go.
Yui should make a sauna club, too.
Certainly, a sauna club...
There are only two of us now, Min-chan and...
Certainly, you said you like Masai and Mayu-chan.
Yes, yes, yes, I said I like them.
We just talked about it, but it's been 20 years since the tour started.
Now, Aichi Park has three parks and Budokan Park has six parks.
Wow!
It's amazing!
It's like a concert set design and production.
So it's amazing to do this every time.
Quite a lot of costumes included.
Don't miss it.
There are no tickets available at the venue, but we do have a delivery service.
You can get a discount ticket until September 16th.
Please check it out.
You're good at guiding.
We're both doing it.
You're going in that direction.
You can do that, right?
You know what I mean?
You're talking like this and you're connecting the goal.
I don't know.
We're getting to know each other more and more.
It's been 12 years, I think.
And the 20th anniversary single, Oh My Pumpkin, was also released.
Oh My Pumpkin.
Riko-sensei said that she wanted to tell you how much she loves you.
Oh My Pumpkin. I love you, love you, love you!
I didn't know that!
And this song is by Diamond.
Oh, that makes sense.
Yes, there are about 11 songs in total.
Yes, there are a lot of 20th anniversary songs from choreography, so how about working as a center for this song as well?
Yes, but when I think about it again and again, I feel like I have to work hard, but in a good way.
I'm doing it with the feeling of raising my favorite AKB48 as a 20th anniversary.
How can I say?
There's something I know.
It's my 20th anniversary as a general director.
That's right.
When I was doing streams and stuff,
and now, during my 20th anniversary as a director,
there were so many members.
But I think there's a possibility that we have the same feeling.
It may be different if you could understand the center's feelings, but I don't know what that pressure is like.
I feel like there's something that goes through here.
Something amazing has happened now.
I think so.
Objectively speaking, it is.
but in this position, I wonder how much I can enjoy and show my current good side.
But I think I can do it without feeling it too much.
Yes, me too.
Right? Like, let's enjoy it.
Let's enjoy this time.
I'm in a phase like that.
Yes, yes, yes.
How is it?
No, really.
I want to be conscious in a good way.
If you feel your seniors too much,
Seniors, you were as energetic as you were back then.
We were able to connect the group we are in now.
So for now, of course...
We've learned from you.
Yes, yes, yes. Thanks to you seniors.
I hope we can do it with confidence like that.
I understand.
This is probably the first time we've talked about it.
But I think we probably feel the same way.
That's right.
Even if we don't talk about it, I think that everyone thinks like that.
When you have a history of 20 years, there are some places you have to protect that history.
There are also things we admired there.
There are some, but I don't think that's enough.
There is also a feeling that we have to make our own colors with the current members.
I hope we can continue to create our own AKB48 and during this period, we want to show ourselves.
We can see that the fans are changing and there are people who have been around for a long time, but there are also new people coming in.
I hope we can create together with all of you.
Even without you, we can't do it.
And we are not the only ones who should do our best on the Tokyo Dome stage, but we want to go with our fans as a whole.
We want to create a cool image that fans can follow and cheer for.
I want to keep going.
I want to do my best.
We have talked a lot.
It is about to end.
I want to run to Budokan.
There is a long way to go.
We have a common awareness.
I want to make AKB more exciting.
I think I'm not alone.
I will do my best to complement each other.
Thank you in the future.
Please tell me if you have anything.
Ah, Yeigan?
You don't look like you'd say that.
You're pretty self-solving type.
What?
It's self-solving, but I say it on LINE.
That's self-explanatory.
Even a little bit.
Communication.
Communication?
Yeah.
We will do our best to improve it.
We want to do our best, so please continue to support us.
Please support us!
So, today's guest was Yui!
Thank you very much!
Thank you!
