Everyone——— ♪
Thanks for all the congratulatory comments regarding Kouhaku— (*>∀<*)

Seeing everyone being so happy, as if something great had happened to them personally,
just makes me the happiest de-ariyasu!!!!!

And then and then

The end of last week was a chain of fun events too ☆

There was the monthly Folk Village on NEXT on Thursday

The guest this time was miwa-san
Wow, even though we knew each other quite well
it was the first time we worked so closely on a collab ☆

We’d done one-on-one collabs before,
but this felt different from the usual miwaclo,
and I was so nervous, my heart was racing de-ariyasu (* *)

I got to do a collab on “Furui nikki” and “true colors” ♪

Wow wow… My only thought was

miwa-san is really awesome!!!!!

Her volume, intonation, everything was so amazing (* *)

I was really impressed ☆

Once again,
I was determined to work even harder than ever （*・Θ・*）

That’s always my takeaway from Folk Village

Every time I encounter a tough hurdle
I’ll always think
“Ehh?!! I didn’t know that could be done!!”…

I’m just full of gratitude… ☆

I believe that this will surely help me to grow… .:*:゜☆

To everyone who watch over me kindly every time,
and everyone who write in their reviews,
oh, and everyone who make requests, thank you (*^Θ^*)

And the usual
Yuming-san’s song corner
where we get to sing to Takebe-san’s wonderful piano accompaniment

Even though it’s a tough hurdle
I really enjoy myself ♪

So happy de-ariyasu (*^Θ^*)

And~ The next day, Friday,
we mixed with lots of grand artistes at Yokohama Arena

for the Nippon Broadcasting Opening 60th Anniversary Commemorative
Wasurarenu Music concert ☆

I’m just so happy to be able to perform together with all my favourite artistes
whom I always listen to! (*>∀<*)

And then, once again,
I experienced the history and love of All Night Nippon and Nippon Broadcasting (*^^*)

Closing the distance between listeners and us
Radio is just so amazing~… (*’-’).:*:゜☆

Lastly, everyone sang “Wasurarenu Music”,
a really wonderful song
written by Yuming-san and Teraoka Yohito-san
It was my proudest moment de-ariyasu (*’-’*)

And then, lots of Mononofu
came down to attend the event too ☆

The 5 colours of penlights sparkle everywhere we go,
we are really so blessed~ (*’-’).:*:゜☆

Thank you (*^^*)

And ♪ In December,
there’s FNS, MSta Super Live, Kouhaku…
So everyone from all over Japan who can’t really come to attend our concerts
can have a chance to watch our performance too (*’-’*)

That’s just so amazing ☆
I’m so grateful (*^^*)

This chance ☆ I’ll take good care of my health
so that I can show off everything I’ve got with no regrets （｀・Θ・´）

Everyone, take care
not to catch a cold too (*・Θ-*)

Today’s BGM is
a great song I got into
because Sakazaki-san performed it
THE ALFEE-san’s “Musician” ♪

Posted on 2014-11-27 15:44:20

It’s hard to believe, but…
It’s our 3rd consecutive appearance (* *)

The tracks we’ve made the past 3 years,
they’re truly a continuity of miracles paved by everyone ☆

It’s because all the Mononofu
have always supported us with much spirit,
and were always so much stronger than us
and watched over us ☆

No matter how grateful I am, it’s never enough σ(*´∀｀*)

Ah! But to spend New Year’s Eve
with everyone again this year
makes me the happiest de-ariyasu (*^^*)

I really love music…
So to appear on music programmes
like Kouhaku, and Folk Village today,
is really the best happiness for me ☆

So I make sure to enjoy myself every time,
and of course, challenge myself
to deliver something to everyone

Every single concert ♪ Meeting ♪
I’ll treasure each one of them de-ariyasu (≧▽≦)

Alright—!
First, let’s dash swiftly until year’s end—

Everyone~ Will you come with me?

Posted on 2014-11-25 22:53:52

Waaaaahh~~~
It’s been so long since Osaka Jou Hall, and Onna Matsuri
so both gave me so many emotions (*’-’*)

But seriously, the girls-only space
was surrounded by magical brilliance and cuteness ♪

Lots of hearts were flying around ♡♪

And lastly, stars had also fallen upon us ☆★

I wonder if the boys saw the LV too~?

Girls’ cuteness was on full display during this production by Yumi-sensei

And the dancers were really cool too

My heart was just racing and numb at the same time

It was a wonderful 2.5 hours (*^^*)

Ah! Weren’t our outfits cute?
We managed to go around the venue
and come so close to everyone!
It was the best! (*>∀<*)

Lots of people were cosplaying, it was as awesome as always— ☆
We could clearly see all your costumes (*・Θ-*)

The stylist said she didn’t want me
to look like the usual Momoka style (lol)
So matching with the outfit, she changed my hairstyle and everything
We had lots of fun (*^Θ^*)

Did all the girls and boys at the LV venues watch the show too—?

Here are some photos
for all the Mononofu around Japan who couldn’t make it—
I hope this delivers at least a bit of the show to you… .:*:゜☆

For Folk Village this week,
we’re focusing on unforgettable music

Then, Momokuri is in 1 month’s time

Ah~ The year has passed by so quickly
I’m really thankful
to have spent it together with everyone (*’-’).:*:゜☆

Thank you (*^^*)

Ah! Here’s a secret story ♪

This photo
was taken by Kanako’s younger brother
Isn’t it a NICE SHOT?

During the show,
everyone was decorated with stars in their colour
I was barely tall enough (laugh)

This photo shows that moment ★

I made a really big mistake on my previous entry…
I was checking wiki and went “Eh (? ?)”
My English is weak, so… ← Eh?!
“Oh— Is that right?!”
And that was why I wrote it!!!

Now I realized
I got someone’s important name wrong…

So let me set this right,
the one who called me “Oh! tiny ♪” and carried me bridal-style
was the drummer Eric Singer-san ★

I’m really sorry (*_ _*)

Ah! And I wrote that I hit his drums…
Hit…? (lol)
Everyone must be wondering “What did she mean—?!!”…
Yes, I used drumsticks ^^;

Thanks to everyone for correcting me ^^

Seriously, my lack of vocabulary
has created so many errors this time de-ariyasu (TΘT)

↓ Some photos from Las Vegas I didn’t upload the last time ♪

Posted on 2014-11-21 12:33:35

I’m baaaaaaaaack— ♪

Actually, we…

Were unable to update our blogs for awhile

Well!!!

Because we had jumped to Las Vegas

To do a photoshoot and PV shooting for a new song
to be released 28 January next year— (*・Θ-*)

Eh? Why Las Vegas?!

Yes!!

It’s because we’re doing a collab ☆★

with an overseas artiste!!

Rock band!!

KISS!!!!!

It’s my very first overseas PV filming

And at Las Vegas too!!!

And to really meet KISS-san

Wow, that’s really such an inspiration… (* *)

Their appearance is really intense and frightening
So I felt a little nervous during our first meeting

But once we met
They’re really such kind and interesting people

I had a tongue stretching contest
with Gene Simmons-san too (laugh)
(Ah! I lost in terms of tongue length
But mine could stretch upwards more than his （*・Θ・*）)

Eric Singer-san commented that I was “Oh! tiny ♪”
and held me up bridal-style de-ariyasu (*^Θ^*)

He even carried me up on stage to his drum set
And let me hit his drums— ♪
Yay (*>∀<*)

And ♪ We got to watch their concert too ← They were so awesome (* *)

We spent a really KISS week together— (*^Θ^*)

If only we can continue giving concerts with such amazing power just like them
no matter how old we grow (*’-’).:*:゜☆

Ah— And then
I hope to deliver the finished
single to everyone soon! (*>∀<*)

I hope to let everyone experience
a new kind of Momoclo again… .:*:゜☆

P.S.
I’ll upload more off-shots from Las Vegas
when I have the chance— ♪

Today’s Pocky Day ♪
Which means
That even the convenience stores
All have their Pocky corners nicely set up (*>∀<*)

Has everyone eaten Pocky too~??
Which flavour do you like—??

I like Almond chocolate and Roasted flavours— ♪

The staff prepared lots of Pocky for us
And during lesson breaks
I played the Pocky game with Reni (something I usually never do ←) lol

I would usually never do this ←
…But if it’s today ♪ Then it’s a special exception (*￣ー￣*) (lol)

And then, last weekend
Momoclo arts festival was held at
Tachikawa’s Forum Chuubu (*>∀<*)
I wanted to go— (*T T*)

But since we heard an account from Kawakami-san
And saw photos of everyone’s wonderful works
Oh well— ♪
Everyone~ Thank you (*^Θ^*)

I’ve received all the love
from the Mononofu de-ariyasu (*・Θ-*)

And thanks to everyone who watched
Saturday’s Music Fair! ♪

Mama usually doesn’t praise me much,
but she said that MOON PRIDE was really cool ☆ (* *) Whoa—!!

And Radio-Chan too
Thanks for always tuning in and leaving reviews (*^Θ^*)

Arghh———!! One week…
Really passes by so fast— (* *;)
It’s already the weekend in the blink of an eye…
Last weekend, I met with lots of people
and received many warm cheers and praise
Lots of people watched Ustream too
So this week
was full of joy for me… (*^^*)
Thank you so much, everyone ♪
Anyway, it’s been getting really cold,
has anyone caught a cold??
That’s right,
I’ve seen some comments of some of you falling sick…
Please get well soon （；　；）
At this point,
lots of big announcements have been made too
about “Fujii to yome no nanokakan sensou”
and finally
the movie “Maku ga agaru”…

Onna matsuri is coming soon too ♪
Ah! Rehearsals have just begun
and Yumi-sensei is already all pumped up ☆
Everyone~ Please look forward to it— (*・Θ-*)
And then ♪
About “Maku ga agaru”
…Was everyone surprised—?!
It’s Director Motohiro of “Odoru daisousasen” fame— ☆
It’s become a reality for us (* *)
At first, the thought of us
appearing in such a big movie…
Really made us so nervous
But thanks to the passion and teamwork of the director, producer
and all the staff members,
we were naturally guided
into this world we’ve never explored before (especially for me, who had a midwestern role which is totally not my usual self)
and we slowly started to learn how to act (*’-’*)
We’ve not seen the completed product yet
so I can’t comment on it,
but I have a feeling that it’ll surely be wonderful
and something which is totally different from anything we’ve done so far
That’s my secret feeling ☆
It’ll be released on 28 February,
and stage plays are scheduled to start in May too
(We’ll go all over Japan to meet everyone— ♪)
Everyone, please look forward to it— （*^Θ^*）

Ahh— I’ve been wanting to tell everyone about it~
And now I finally can (*^^*)
I’ve been itching to do so since summer de-ariyasu (laugh)
There have been people who’ve gone and read the book already,
and that makes me glad ♪
The original book is really wonderful,
so please read it before watching the movie (*・Θ-*)

Anyway,
I’m really thankful everyday
for the chances given to us to take new steps de-ariyasu （*^Θ^*）
And so,
Today’s BGM is, of course,
reflective of my mood now, “Ashioto ~ Be Strong”,
whose PV has just been released ♪

——

Misa’s note: “Maku ga agaru” means “Raise the curtains”.

I’m so happy!!

Dear God!!
Please
let this happiness last forever… .:*:゜☆

↑
I can’t even tell which is me de-ariyasu (^^;

Thank you so much
to everyone who took off their precious time to come to
Kyoto and Nagaoka (*T T*)

To everyone whom I didn’t manage to meet today,
I’ll pray for us to meet someday ☆

The talk show in Kyoto
Thanks to everyone who came down
especially those who travelled from far away (*^^*)
But… arrrghhh——————!!!
I was too nervous and couldn’t really speak well (・Θ・)
I’m really sorry that I was unable to deliver my feelings well,
when everyone had taken their time to come,
and lined up in the rain and waited long hours (TΘT)

But to see so many Mononofu gathered together
to hear my story,
that alone makes my heart feel so full…
My heart just wouldn’t stop racing…
It was really bad (*>Θ<*)

But this event was held because I really wanted to do it!! ☆
And it really came true ♪ I was just so happy (*>∀<*)

I guess I really can’t help
but love all the Mononofu (//Θ//)
Today just made me feel that really strongly again ♪

Next will be Nagaoka in Niigata—
Please look forward to the event! (*・Θ-*)
Maybe?? I’ll be able to speak better then??
I’ll try my best de-ariyasu （*｀・Θ・´*）

I hope that everyone who came to Kyoto
didn’t catch a cold
or got too tired from the journey…
Please take care (*^^*)
Thank you so much! ♪
I’m really very grateful! (*T T*)

P.S.
If everyone’s not too tired, UStream will start today at 11pm
Those who have the time, please watch it— (*^Θ^*)
