Good evening.

Today was the first
Of our national tour performances in Nagoya.

Thank you very much.


In anything, we have no-one to depend on.
In everything, the members all work hard to help and support each other.

I would be happy if you would continue to warmly support and watch over us from now on.


Today I worked hard to do the very best I could do today
To reach the people who came and have them enjoy themselves.


Tomorrow I will do my best again ( ˆ ˆ )/






Good night.

Harada Aoi

A short but powerful post. As a Japanese commenter said, there seems to be a bit of anger in it. I'm not sure if the translation should be "we have no-one to depend on" or "we depend on no-one." But I went with the former because of the anger I felt.

The first concert in Nagoya was a disaster and a triumph. Techi was unable to perform...but the group overcame this huge hurdle and created what reports say was an exciting show.

Another commenter said: "People keep saying 'grade-schooler, grade-schooler,' but Aoi is actually a very together person." I completely agree. She may be small and slight, and may lack confidence in some situations, but she is very far from being a little child. She is a smart and able high-schooler, and one of the academically superior members of the group.


I've read another comment that Aoi had always been a good dancer, but her dancing is becoming more graceful recently. I have noticed this, too. Previously, she was clearly a good dancer, fast and making all the moves. But her movements felt a bit awkward and herky-jerky. They are now becoming smoother and more graceful.

Someone else said she was striking as a member of the subgroup156 doing Ballet to Shounen Wednesday night. They mentioned her flashing eyes and how they communicated. 

Add Aoi's name to the list of possible future centres -- and not too far in the future, either.

I'm sorry, I don't know who the other person in the photo is. Akanen and Uemuu have been suggested.

Here are a few recent photos:
