Hello!
We're into July.
How is everybody getting on?
Aoi-chan has made her return!!!
I happened to have a chance to talk with her
And she was so nice that being together was calming.
She was the same Aoi-chan I love.
But at the same time
I worried whether I had changed.
A year is so long...!
Truly, truly, you have worked so hard!!
This was three months ago.
More recently, you know,
These are days I'm preparing for the graduation event.
I'm discussing things with staff
And trying the ideas we come up with.
It will be nice if we can pull this off ٩( 'ω' )و
I've been given the chance to draw things and make things myself.
I hope it will be something you can really look forward to!
When we have it set up, I'll tell you about it!
And just a bit more, about recent happenings...
I watched Utada Hikaru's
Laughter in the Dark Tour 2018 live event
On Netflix.
Her voice, the music, the way she carried herself... It's been 20 years
But her ephemeral but strong and boldly stylish appearance
Gave me power.
She overflowed with grace enwrapped in frailty...
Listening to these songs, somehow the tears just came. This
Happened again and again.
Before I understood it in my mind
My heart had already been seized.
To encounter such music is a joyful blessing.
I wonder if it would do the same thing for all of you...!
Marika-san recommended to me
Shiina Ringo-san's
(Live) Shiina Ringo '18: What's Left After Forty,
Which I have also bought and watched.
Honed to a glittering shine... Really, now!
I was zapped again and again,
Like an electric shock...
And the timing of how her hair loosened was so perfect
That I watched over and over again to see how it was done.
But I could never tell. I loved it.
I have to become a wonderful adult
And not run away from being 20, I thought.
The music and the costumes and the production filled me with palpitations.
And finally,
Why do I have my eyes so tightly shut.
Every page of POPEYE magazine was precious to read!
To read it at 20 is a blessing. [note: The magazine headline is "What were you doing when you were 20?" Neru is 20.]
That's what's happening these days!
I'll update again.....
Thank you for reading today.

For those who don't know, Neru was a huge fan of Nogizaka's Itou Marika long before she joined Keyaki. After joining Keyaki, Neru became a friend of her oshimen....
