Well—
There’s so much to write about—…

Where shall I begin—? (laugh)

Hmm, let’s start with the past 2 days ♪
All of us in Momoclo paid a visit to Kagawa— (*>∀<*)

To the locals and everyone who came from faraway,
and everyone all over the country who watched the LV
Thank you— (*^^*)

And everyone who couldn’t make it, but sent in their cheers ♪

As more and more people watch the movie,
we get to see and hear their reactions,
and it’s so exciting and thrilling… ☆

Let us know your opinions, criticisms included— (^m^)

And at Kagawa,
we ate delicious udon
and hosted a concert and meet-and-greet.
We all had a really wonderful time de-ariyasu (*^Θ^*)

I wasn’t on stage when Udonno made his appearance,
but I was really glad to finally meet him! ♡

We chatted with Director Motohiro, Hirata Oriza-san and Director Oobayashi.
I never thought such a situation would ever happen,
so it was a precious session for me ☆

Director Oobayashi
also shared lots of precious advice with us,
and we managed to learn so much de-ariyasu (* *)

Oh! For the concert, we performed the movie’s theme song “Seishunfu”
for the first time before an audience— ♪

I wish everyone who didn’t get to hear it
will get their chance soon too (*’-’).:*:゜☆

And then, the day before
was my highlight of each month, Folk Village— （*・Θ・*）

I wonder if anyone noticed
that I was trying out a new style of singing this time
that’s slightly different from my usual (*’-’*)

I’m just really inspired to slowly pick up different styles of singing
and improve myself de-ariyasu ♪

So, so,
everyone—, please watch over me— (*^^*)

Oh! Was everyone surprised when I picked “Sobakasu”
as my request song?!

I wanted to sing a song by Ayaka-san or aiko-san at first,
but I decided I wanted to try something different ☆

I hope to challenge more types of songs in the future too de-ariyasu (*^Θ^*)

Folk Village this time ended so soon again (+ +)

And Aarin’s graduation SP ☆ Looking forward to it! (*>∀<*)

But… There’s Sky Park’s Music Festival before that

We’ll be doing a collab
with Wada Akiko-san,
the thought just makes me tremble even now

But I’ll stand tall
Calm down

And practise lots in the upcoming days

If I can enjoying singing, rather than see it as a test…

Wow!! But that seems impossible ^^;

But with these feelings
and chance,
And all my precious friends ♡ listening in,
I hope to fully utilize
this opportunity granted to us de-ariyasu (*^^*)

Alright!!!!! Let’s go——— ☆

Ano koro wa~ ♪ Hah!! (laugh)

We visited Shinjuku’s Isetan first thing this morning
for the press conference for our collab ☆ with Pink House— ♪

Mama has been a big fan of this brand for years

And I’m sure all girls will definitely fall in love
with this chic and unique maiden feel.
Can’t get enough! (*>∀<*)

During the photoshoot,
we were really obedient
and pushed ourselves
to become a different Momoclo.
Basically, we handled ourselves like adults— (laugh)

The makeup style was very model-like too

It almost felt like we were in a dream, in a field of flowers.
It was a magical space

Oh! During the press conference today,
we had on a more natural style of makeup,
so it was another different feel ☆

These photos were taken during the photoshoot— (*・Θ-*)

How do you find maiden Momoka? (laugh)

Today was Morioka and Akita ♪

All the other members are doing meet-and-greets at various locations too,
so lots of people all over the country
will have their curtains raised very soon! (*’-’*)

But there are still many people who haven’t had their curtains raised,
so I can’t give any spoilers (laugh)

We’ll continue to spread out
to help everyone enjoy the movie (*￣ー￣*)

So, I received another warm welcome today
from the Mononofu-san and locals
Ariyasu feels truly blessed de-ariyasu (*^Θ^*)

I’m so glad
to be together with everyone in a space where I didn’t need to use the mic ♪
Everyone felt so close,
and the mixed feelings of anxiety and calm
was a new experience for me (*’-’*)

From the autograph collection I received yesterday at Aomori,
to all the people at the different cinemas
with their amazingly detailed handmade gifts,
to the fact that they took their precious time to come.
Oh! And there were even some who came from far away, as if on a pilgrimage themselves.
Every little thing just made me feel like crying lots and lots of tears of gratitude de-ariyasu (*T T*)

Usually, it’s everyone who would come to see us,
so now I can go to everyone and see them instead.
It’s really the best happiness! (*>∀<*)

And I got to try lots of delicious food too

I just felt like
I could do this nationwide pilgrimage forever~ ♪ (laugh)

We’ll be stopping for a little while
but we’ll continue to visit more places soon,
so do wait in anticipation for us— (*・Θ-*)

Oh! Sanuki Movie Festival will take place on Friday, right? ♪

Kagawa Prefecture~ Wait for me— (*^○^*)

There’ll be LV too,
so it’ll be great if everyone all over the country can see it as well (*’-’*)

Folk Village will be airing
on TV the day after tomorrow too ♪

We’ll be appearing on lots of TV programmes next week,
so everyone~ do check out our website— ☆

Sebana— (*・Θ-*)
