Nishino Nanase is now 24 years old! Yay~
This year went by so fastt.
I’m happy for this birthday. Lots of people said “happy brithday” to me, and that makes me really happy.
Thank you very much!

As always, health is most important above all
and I hope I can do work that’s fulfilling
while keeping one’s time away from work and recharging yourself important.  I hope to spend my days like that.
I’ll keep doing my best! I look forward to what is aheadd~
Please continue to support me, now that I’m 24. ヽ(´▽`)/
A few days before my birthday, Marie-chan and I went on a date.
She had bought me a cake and
even gave me a present…!
I was suprised and was very happy. I was filled with happiness~. ✨

First Photobook
「Watashi No Koto」
I’m super happy that it seems like many people have gotten their hands on it.
I wonder which photoshoot and page did people enjoy? I’m curious..
Hotel Hatoya was lovelyy.

I went to Chō Kukki Land neoneo
wih Marika~
They added more exhibits and goods!

Ambition Part…? (Her monthly food blog) I forgot…
There are 5 more remaining I think~?
I’m going at it at a super slow pace if I say so myself.  It’s been a year already. (LOL)


The top is a Pickled Salmon Bowl
Just need to pickle it from the night before.  So simple.
I make this a lot.
I used mentsuyu, sesame oil, and ground pepper.

The bottom one is Meat Sauce Pasta.
It was my first time making the sauce from scratch. I don’t have a deep pot, so I cut the pasta short and boil it in a frying pan.
It was delicious.

At the national handshake event at Makuhari and the individual handshake event at Nagoya.

I received flowers and made a speech.  A cute Aloha shirt!
There were various illustrations and decorations along the lanes.
I enjoyed seeing them ✨
I’m truly grateful (^人^)☆

There were many people who wore the Doiya-san pin attached to non-no magazine.  I see, that sort of strategy exists, I thought (LOL).

Sasaki Kotoko: Nuggets

Good evening.

During the Under Live Chūbu Series (the region of Japan between Kantō and Kansai),
I caught a cold and it made things difficult, but many things happened so it was still fun.


I found and bought a Nuggets T-shirt,
and I gave one to Karin-chan as an early birthday present.
It’s the Nuggets pose.
I asked the makeup-san to give me a Nuggets hair style.
There are 6 pieces of Nuggets.

There are group photos and two-shots during the Under Live Chūbu Series
are posted by other members, so please check them out.

There is a picture with Aizawa Risa-san on Sakai-san’s Instagram account.
Check it out.

By the way,
Did you guys watched Zen Gundam Dai Tōhyō?
I was nervous, but it was very fun!
I’m very grateful to the various people around me that helped me out.

Because of this program,
I’m currently watching Mobile Suit Gundam W.
There are other shows that I’m interested in as well, but I plan on watching them at my own pace.
I think in the 00 audio commentary or something, they were debating whether they’re similar or not, so I’m watching Gundam W first.
Since I loved the OP and the ED, I bought the CD and put them in my favorite playlist and listen to it.
By the way, I wonder what they’re saying in the intro, interlude, and outro of JUST COMMUNICATION.


I showed the makeup-san a picture of Kyari-san’s when she performed at Budōkan, and asked them to imitate it for me.

Last night, as I was looking something up on my smart phone while under the bed covers, my right eyelid towards the nose was itchy so I was scratching it and it got swollen and it was getting hard to open my eye.  So I got up and looked in the mirror and only my right eyelid looked like a single eyelid (as opposed to a double eyelid) and it looked funny.

In the morning, it was back to a double eyelid but it feels a bit like there’s extra skin there.

I should’ve gotten a picture.
 
 
Anyways, I’ll do my best.

Matsumura Sayuri: Ikoma Rina-sann (o・・o)

2018/05/07 20:06

It’s Matsumura Sayuri.
 
 
 
Ikoma-chan, thank you for everything!!!
 
 
 
Yesterday, Ikoma-chan’s activities as Nogizaka46
came to an end.

As Ikoma-chan was saying
yesterday as well,
I still find it hard to believe that she’s actually graduating.
Even today, I don’t feel like I can believe it.
 
 
I think in the future,
there will be many moments where
I’ll really feel the sadness
of realizing that she isn’t here anymore.
 
 
 
Since the beginning, Ikoma-chan was the face of Nogizaka46
and always gave it her best.
However, to me, she will always be like my cute, cute little sister.
The little sister was the one who was relied on
and I was always the one to be scolded

but when I hug her in the dressing room,

I always worried that she was shouldering all of this
with a body that was so small and thin.
 
 
 
 
 
When Ikoma-chan was the center,
like in Seifuku no Manneqin and Kimi no Na wa kibō,
I was always right behind her, watching her shine,
and I loved it.
 
 
 
As everyone has probably thought already,
I didn’t think
she would graduate so early.
But with her curiosity and talent,
I very much look forward to seeing
what sort of new side of her she will show us all
after she’s journeyed off from Nogizaka46.
 
 
If you are ever lonely,
you can count on me ♡
Let’s also talk about “Free!” ♡ (LOL)
 
 
Even after you have graduated, let’s share the sad things together and
increase the happy things together, too!
 
 
 
To my favorite Iko-tan

may you always be happy.
 
 
 
 
While looking for pictures of us together,
I found this ♡

The eternal protagonist of Nogizaka46,
Ikoma-chan ♡

Nogizaka46 No Gaku Tabi! Episode 5, 180304 (Honjou, Saitama), Subbed

Nogizaka46 No Gaku Tabi! is a series that takes Nogizaka46 members and enrolls them as transfer students in a school for one day. This episode, however, centers around calligraphy. Instead of them spending a day as normal students, they will spend two separate days as calligraphy club members taking classes to practice calligraphy and preparing for an inter-school calligraphy performance competition. Six Nogizaka46 members are divided up into two groups of three. Each group will join the calligraphy club of either Honjou East High School or Honjou First High School and a calligraphy performance competition is held between the two schools.

“Hero AAAA – A Game Show that You Can Watch and Kinda Get Even if You Have Zero Gaming Knowledge” 『勇者ああああ〜ゲーム知識ゼロでもなんとなく見られるゲーム番組〜』

I just discovered this show called “Hero AAAA – A Game Show that You Can Watch and Kinda Get Even if You Have Zero Gaming Knowledge” 『勇者ああああ〜ゲーム知識ゼロでもなんとなく見られるゲーム番組〜』.
https://ja.wikipedia.org/wiki/%E5%8B%87%E8%80%85%E3%81%82%E3%81%82%E3%81%82%E3%81%82

You might like it if you like video games and Japanese variety comedy. No subs as far as I’m aware (the show is only 1 year old).

The MCs are Alco and Peace (comedy duo). https://ja.wikipedia.org/wiki/%E3%82%A2%E3%83%AB%E3%82%B3%26%E3%83%94%E3%83%BC%E3%82%B9

The show is produced by Square Enix.

It’s quite different from game center cx though, which is to me 80% gaming and 20% comedy. This show is more 70% comedy, 30% gaming, even though the whole show is firmly video game-themed and the MCs are much better gamers than Arino of GCCX (they also make references to gaming culture than only gamers would understand). Also, GCCX is pretty family-friendly while this show has a more “bro” feel to it (it’s a late night show, for one).

Here is a streaming link to the first episode: http://www.miomio.tv/watch/cc318177/
An upload of the first ep (aired 2017-04-06): https://mega.nz/#!FTxywbAD
Decryption key: !dOi2_6njwqTTEsga11-6n5TKE303ciHRgrk3kw_uRsM

Here is a site that semi-reliably (some links may be broken) posts links to each episode: http://variety111.blog.fc2.com/?q=%E5%8B%87%E8%80%85%E3%81%82%E3%81%82%E3%81%82%E3%81%82&page=5
Episodes can also generally be found on miomio.tv or pandora.tv
http://search.miomio.tv/?keyword=%E5%8B%87%E8%80%85%E3%81%82%E3%81%82%E3%81%82%E3%81%82
http://www.pandora.tv/search/searchResult?query=%E5%8B%87%E8%80%85%E3%81%82%E3%81%82%E3%81%82%E3%81%82&type=movie
Miomio.tv has better uploads than pandora.tv. An episode on pandora.tv I found had the video start 1 minute into the show while miomio didn’t have that issue.

An example of a show (using the first ep): in the first segment, the MCs and some guest comedians play a “challenge” from a video game. In the first ep, they taken turns trying to successfully do a “hadoken” in Street Fighter II 9 straight times. If they fail at any point, they get (mildly) electrocuted, batsu game style.

In the second segment, they bring in entertainers who claim that video games is a hobby of theirs. Alco and Peace comically grill them on their gaming knowledge to expose them as fakes (who don’t really know about gaming) or authentic.


“Later, I was a car show model.”


“There’s no way a car show model who has guys all over her is into video games.”

In the third and final segment, comedians perform video-game themed skits.

The first segment where they play the challenges probably need no subs to understand, but the following segments probably do.

It’s a different take on video game-themed comedy than GCCX, and it’s pretty hilarious.

Another first segment I watched was from this episode: http://variety111.blog.fc2.com/blog-entry-44630.html
(miomio.tv and pandora.tv links still work), where everyone tries to do this thing from Mario:

across a section of the level. I remember this skill as being one of the harder things to do in this Mario game, so it shows that they do bring in comedians who have a certain level of gaming under their belts already.
