こんばんは☆ いつも応援ありがとうございます。 Good Evening
☆
Thank you as ever for all your support.
今夜の乃木坂工事中で 選抜発表がありました! We had the announcement of the next senbatsu during this evening’s Nogizaka Koujichuu!
初めてフロント!!!
I’m in the front row for the first!!!
なんだか自分が一番よくわかならない 現実を飲み込めてない感じでしたが、 しかしこれは喜ぶべきこと(๑˃̵ᴗ˂̵) Honestly, I’m the one most confused by what’s happened, and I still haven’t really processed it yet, but this is something I can only feel happy about
(๑˃̵ᴗ˂̵)
めったにないことだ! これが最後かもしれないよ!!! This is something rare! I doubt I’ll get to do it again!!!
だから喜ぶ!
So I’m happy!
ありがとうございます!!!
Thank you so much!!!
高山一実をいつも応援してくださる ファンの皆さん、 To all the fans who’ve always been supporting me…
やったよ!!(;_;) ありがとうございます!!!
We did it!!
(;_;)
Thank you so much!!!
握手会とかで
At the handshake meetings and such
かずみんのフロントが見たい! と言ってくださった皆さんも、 まさか実現するとは 思っていなかったと思います。笑 When you told me “I want to see Kazumin in the front row!”, I’m sure you didn’t think it would become a reality. Lol
私も殆どの方からは 高山の定位置は3列目やろと 思われてるだろなぁと。 In fact I imagine most people probably think that Takayama’s true place is in the third row.
いやはや選抜にいれてるだけで ありがたいのですが。 Honestly, I’m thankful just to be in the senbatsu in the first place.
努力とか、運とか、 みんなが頑張ってるから もはやわからないです。 Is it because of effort, or was I just lucky? Everyone’s working hard so I don’t really know.
でもなんか、 アイドルになって5年ですが、 年々楽しくなってて。 Really though, I’ve now been an idol for 5 years now, but every year it just gets more fun.
この前会社で社長さんとお会いして、 高山は今、陽の雰囲気が 漂ってると仰っていただいたのが 凄く嬉しかったです。 A while ago I met with the company president, and I was told that right now the positive atmosphere around me is really good, and it made me so pleased.
原稿だったり、○○だったり(まだ秘密) アイドルプラスαの任務もありますが 全部楽しめているんだと思います。 I’ve got my manuscript, I’ve got my
○○
(it’s still a secret) and I’ve got my work with Idol Plus Alpha*, but honestly I’m enjoying everything. *Idol Plus Alpha I think is a live show based on Idolmaster, but I don’t know how Kaz is involved with it.
それも本当にファンの皆さんのお陰で。
And it’s all thanks to my fans.
握手会、この間のお渡し会とか 突然の公開収録とか。 At handshakes, signing events and during unexpected public filming events…
実際ファンのみなさんとイベントで お会いすることによって 密に感じれるんですよね。 {あぁ昔より支えてくれる人が増えている} って。 Whenever I’ve been coming into contact with fans directly, because I’ve been able to meet you, I’ve quietly been realising it; “Hey, the number of people supporting me is larger than it used to be”
数だけじゃなくて 一人一人の声援とか愛情も、 コメント読んだり、イベントで 直接的にお話させていただいて いっぱい届いていて^^ And it’s not just the numbers, it’s also the cheering and love I’ve got from each person, when I read your comments, and when you speak so positively me at events…so much of your support has reached me ^ ^
新しく好きになってくれた人、 昔から応援してくれている人、 皆さんがとっでも大切。 People who recently became my fans, people who’ve been supporting me for a long time, you’re all important to me.
そして皆さんが何よりも 私のモチベーション! Above everything else, you are all my motivation!
他には外仕事、個人仕事でお世話になる スタッフのみなさんも 本当に優しくて温かくて。 And also, all the staff who are so kind and warm, who’ve looked after me above and beyond work, and in my solo work.
そんな皆さんに喜んでもらえるように 頑張って結果出そうって思います! I want to keep working hard and producing results that will make you pleased!
このブログを読んでくださっている人は 少ないと思うけど、 普段なかなか思っていることを 伝えられないので書かせていただきます。 I think the number of people reading this blog isn’t that large, but these are things that I often think but can’t relate to you, so I want to be able to write them here.
高山一実とお仕事をしてくださって ありがとうございます。 Thank you everyone who’s worked with me.
書きながら色んな方の顔が浮かんできて、 勝手に今泣きそうになってますが…。笑 While I’m writing this many faces are coming to mind and I feel like I’ll burst out crying….Lol
えっと、おもえばブログを ポメラで書くのは初めてです。 Hmm, now that I think about this is my first time writing my blog on my Pomera* *Kaz’s electric typewriter
自分の胸の内がストレートに指先に 反映されるので長々とすみません。 I’m just writing what’s in my heart straight out, so I’m sorry if it gets long.
原稿もこれくらいスムーズに 打てればよいです。笑 I wish I could type out my manuscript this smoothly. Lol
自分の好きな仕事、 苦手な仕事はあるけれど、 取り柄とか強みがわからない。 I have jobs I like and jobs I don’t, but I don’t really know what I’m good at, what my forte is.
それはずっと ネガティブだって思ってました。 I always thought that was something negative.
でもむしろ「これが私の魅力でしょ?」 なんて豪語する女にはなりたくないって 拒んでいるのかもしれません。 But if I were to say “Maybe that’s what’s interesting about me?”….I don’t want to boast, but I don’t want to reject that either.
だから面白くないけれど、 呼んでいただけるならバラエティに 出させていただきたいし! So even though I’m not funny, if I get the call to appear on a variety show, I want to appear!
可愛くないけど、 グラビアとかで綺麗に写りたいし! I’m not cute, but if I do gravure I want to produce some beautiful photos!
上手くないし手が震えるけど 沢山歌いたいし!! I’m not that good, and my hands end up shaking, but I want to sing a lot!!
自分に自信ないけど、 積極的に取り組みたいですね^^ I don’t have much confidence in myself, but I want to tackle everything positively ^ ^
もちろん最大限の努力はしてです! And of course I’ll give maximum effort!
どこで自分を好きになってくれるか わからないしさ、 I don’t know how you all came to like me but…
ファンの皆さんには沢山発信したいし! I want to send a lot back to my fans!
アイドルとしての道のりは… まだまだ長く険しいですね!笑 The road of an idol is still long and steep isn’t it! Lol
乃木坂46というグループに、 これからもお世話になります^^ I’m going to keep putting myself in the care of this group called Nogizaka46 ^ ^
頑張らせてもらいます!
I want to keep working hard for them!
以上です。
The End.
これからも応援 していただけたら嬉しいです(๑˃̵ᴗ˂̵) I’d be happy if I can continue to receive your support
(๑˃̵ᴗ˂̵)
読んでくださってありがとうごさいました!! Thank you for reading!
今日はたまたま乃木カラーのYシャツ!笑 Coincidentally I was wearing a shirt in the Nogizaka colours today! Lol
Matsumura Sayuri on Joshiraku 2 and her role as Tetora
Don’t be that strict over the rules of anime… .
Anime and manga do cure and reach out to me. I hope it still doesn’t disappear even after 50 years from now, and I also hope it’ll be everyone’s pastime. I’ll also be watching (and reading) in the afterlife.
-Matsumura Sayuri
【Q&A】 Q1. What is your favorite thing about the character you’re playing? The ponytail!! Her good fortune too since I thought “well her fortune is good I guess?”. She also doesn’t give off a negative vibe around her. Also, the fact that she’s the main character.
Q2. If this team of 5* were to do something outside of this play, what would you want to do? I believe that if it weren’t for Joshiraku, these members wouldn’t have gathered, however it’s surprising that there is no wall between us, in other words, I believe they’re really modest-pleasant members to be together with, so I would want to go on a trip to the hot springs and stay overnight with them. Those who would want to try to get along in the nude.
Q3. Please say a message to the fans. I’m really glad to be able to do “Joshiraku 2”. In order for those who’ve seen the previous as well as those who will be seeing this for the first time to come back and enjoy this, the members and staff from the Joshiraku team will do their best, so please look forward to it. My rendition of Tetora will be like me, but I think I’ll grow accustomed to being Tetora… .
(*Note: She’s in Team “Ra” which also includes Nakada Kana, Ikoma Rina, Noujo Ami, and Suzuki Ayane)
Today I went eating with Kiichan and Karin during break time. /(^o^)\ Yeah!
It was great! (*^o^*) Hah-ha
And yesterday was the individual handshake event in Makuhari!
Those of you who came, thank you very much ♭♭
For the 1st block – tranquil glasses (O_O)
As for the clothes, I wore the pajama from Nogiten.
Because I was wearing a pajama, everyone were like: “You overslept didn’t you?” or “You just woke up right?”
They kept messing with me.. hmph. (´・ω・`) lol
^Block 2
It was fun! lol
For the 3rd block – Fluffy curled hair with a ribbon. And flower earrings.
As for the clothing I wore -that- angel t-shirt with shorts.
As for the 4th and 5th blocks, somehow…
I pulled a short bob!
…mm (Blush)
A rare kind of Sayu! I’m glad I got a good response. (*^_^*)
It’s actually a wig but… Saying “I cut my hair!” I tried pulling a lie riding on the moment. (A reference to the upcoming Unders’ song “Ano Hi, Boku wa Tossa ni Uso wo Tsuita - That day, at that moment, I lied.”)
Not a single person fell for it. o(`ω´)o lol
Everyone, thank you!
–
During the Nogiten spirit training.. I feel like my heart was cleansed thanks to the vice chief priest’s kindness, and being able to work hard together with everyone made it a very good experience. Thank you very much! Baron \(^o^)/
Also, regarding the under center position… At first, I found it perplexing to be really honest. To receive the opportunity to center for a milestone release like the 10th single is something to be very grateful about, and something I’m happy about. But that doesn’t mean wasn’t vexed about, or could excuse that fact that it was Unders.
However, a lot of people have come to me being genuinely happy for me, telling me that they’re as happy as if it were themselves, as well as giving me lots of words of support via comments or at handshake events. And that makes me really happy.
From the very beginning, I entered this world thinking “I want to be there for people, I want to make people smile.” That everyone were happy for me made me really happy, and was very relieving. Seriously. Thank you so much.
When the position was announced, Rotty told me: “It’s great that Sayunyan became the center! Everyone else are saying so too!”
When I was returning from the waterfall meditation, dripping wet, Ami came to pick me up.
I am determined to gather up my confidence and work even harder, for the sake of the other members as well.
I was also able to draw strength from Konno (Chairman of Nogizaka Management Committee) who told me “You’re talented, so good luck okay.” He told me that, and that he likes that I’m a little edgy*. lol (* i.e. Hard to please)
It’s true that in the beginning, I felt like I had to aim for the top in order to please the fans. There were even times when I ended up doing reckless things.
At that time, I was only able to look above myself. However, I have learnt that up is not all there is to it. I have experienced lots of different things, including a lot of frustration. There have also been times where I lost my confidence.
But it is because of these experiences that I have become able to discover a lot of valuable things, and become able to grow as a person. The sore loser trait essential to Sayuri Inoue is not gone though.
I may appear fluffy, but when it’s time to do things I’ll do them properly. I still haven’t lost my guts! When it comes to dancing, singing or acting, I’m staying my edgy self.
I’ve already become an adult, soon to turn 20. I want to show everyone the evolved Sayuri Inoue.
And then there’s something I’ve been worriedly thinking about… How should I carry this position?
I will center in my own way.
I think it would be nice to show it with my own way of single-minded effort.
Even though the fact that one works hard regardless of position doesn’t change, I’ll go to practice on my own, three hours before the lessons begin, and I’ll take responsibility for things as they come, challenging them one at a time.
Rather than pulling everyone together and leading the way, I want to lift everyone up. As everyone has a lot of good points, I want to make the name “Unders” feel like a waste.
I’ll support this team, protect it!!
In order to focus on Nogizaka, I gave up on my entire youth. Now, with that part of my life as my stakes, there are a lot of things I have to protect.
While it hasn’t been revealed yet, the music video is tailored like a drama, and in it I think you’ll be able to catch a glimpse of what I’ve been talking about.
However, this is a passing point. Thriving on this, I want to work hard so that I one day, may be able to become the true center of Nogizaka.
Even though I’m just a tiny lily, (pun on kanji in name) I’m gonna bloom splendidly!!
Please watch the new Chaos stage or… “the stage where we put all the weirdos and pervs in 48G in one place for a 2 hr troll” ಠ_ಠ (Also special guest Uchida and Sayaka)
