A relentless dialogue - Sato no Akari (Gekkan Entame June 2014)

(Excerpts from Sato no Akari's Gekkan Entame interview)

---If the three of you took part in an airhead championship, who would emerge the victor?

Uemura: I wonder who? From the stories I've often heard, it'd definitely be Sato Masaki-chan.

Sato: Nope, it'd be Akari-chan. She's actually amazing. Like a monkey.

Katsuta: Um, monkey?

Sato: No, I don't mean that Akari-chan moves like a monkey. Or has the face of one...

--- We understand. Feels like you've just casually fired off a slew of insults though. (laughs)

Sato: Since monkeys aren't relaxed. A staff member mentioned it before. 'Uemura's less settled than Sato'. When I heard that, I was relieved.

Katsuta: Well, within S/mileage, Maachan is famous for being noisy. Speaking objectively, Maachan's probably at a higher level of airheadedness. But I think that it's also a good thing. She can immediately become friends with any senpai, and that's something I envy.

Sato: I see. But Akari-chan's definitely more of an airhead. You know, she somehow managed to get a manager-san to take off their socks just now.

Uemura: That's because Masaki-chan, you said that you wanted socks. So I told you to wait for a bit as I was making preparations, and I just borrowed the manager's for a bit.

Sato: But the manager was really against it. That made me think that you really were an airhead~ (laughs) What's amazing about Akari-chan is that while she's such a beauty, she's also an airhead. I think that it's such a great contrast. I envy you.

--- I see. Well then, please do your best as the airhead trio from now on!

Katsuta, Sato, Uemura: We're not airheads!

Hmーm。 That's difficult。（lol）






Ah！

For the KOREZO! performances held during the current Hello! Con (Summer 2014), there's a corner where the girls can bring up photos they want to highlight. A  Facebook page has been set up, entitled 'Hello! Pro Ki ni Ittara Share'. (H!P Share it if you like it).

Here's a selection of what piqued my interest. As the page says, if you like any of these photos, then 'Like' and 'Share' them on Facebook. Links are in the first line below the photo, the post titles.

If you missed them - Part I (12, 19 & 26 July), Part II (27 July), Part III (2 Aug), Part IV (3 Aug)

Photograph from　S/mileage　Takeuchi Akari
Seeing her writing at events and in her comments that accompany her bromides, people often say that her 「handwriting is bad」
But in truth、 calligraphy is a skill that she's studied since she was in primary school until now、 where she holds an adult １st-dan。
This photo shows her ability。
The words 「Tennyo Rakka Mai (天女落下舞)」、 have a meaning of 「An angel dancing as if she was a scattering flower」。

{From Juice=Juice's resident Osakan Uemura Akari, we go to Bakuwara.}

The relay blog that was started by Morning Musume。'14's Michishige Sayumi-san！



From Juice=Juice、Rii！(Uemura Akari-chan) has passed it on to meーー＼(^o^)／


To talk about "Something that moved me recently！"、 the thing that moved me was 、what I received from my friends at the graduation ceremony、 autograph cards and letters！！

I cried while reading themーーー（lol）！！

That is the thing that moved me ♪♪

The HinaFes is coming up soon＼(^o^)／
Thinking about singing again on the large stage of Pacifico Yokohama makes me really look forward to it ♪♪


Well、 since it's a relay blog、 next will be Morning Musume。'14's Sato Masaki-chan ♪♪

I wonder what has moved Maachanーー？？？

{I have concerns about Maa-chan, since (i) she updates pretty infrequently (her last post was over a week ago) (ii) Maa-chan's blog posts are infamous for being semi-incomprehensible. We'll see.}
{Maa-chan updates before the night is through! Let's see what Sato Masaki has to say}
