    #064. NGT48's summer performances

    This summer, NGT48 is appearing in several festivals like ROCK IN JAPAN[1] (I'm going to abbr. "Rockin"), TOKYO IDOL FESTIVAL[2] (abbr. TIF), Roppongi Hills Summer Festival SUMMER STATION / TV Asahi[3], and @JAM EXPO[4]! At the moment of writing this manuscript, Rockin and TIF have already been finished, but they were awesome, with that sensation of SUMMER!!!

    First off, Rockin! This year was the first time the 48 Group ever participated. It was really hot because we hadn't performed outdoors for a while but thanks to fans' excitement, it was very fun! The event gathered lots of great artists and although I had to left soon after the performance due to another job, it seems that the other (NGT48) members remained in the venue and enjoyed the festival as everyone else—Not fair!—I though! (laugh)

    Next is TIF! Since we have been invited for three years in a row, it almost feels like a regular event! Every year, the stage with lots of idols expressing powerfully their performances is so emotive and the atmosphere is really great! I love this event! And this time too, many people asked me to take photos with them and since I don't normally have the opportunity to come in contact with other idols, it sure braced me up. This festival made me want to try hard again as an idol.

    Summer is all about festivals after all! I hope I can make many wonderful memories this year too! I want to be in every festival NGT48 participates!


    Concerts are fun after all!
    Come and have fun, everyone!!

    By the time you are reading this column, I'll already be 21 years old. So, I'm going to write about "my pretensions for my 21 years old!"

    In this year that I'm 21, I intend to become a woman that doesn't pander to anyone even more. (laugh) Since I value my unique qualities the most, I want to do whatever other people can't do, and speak whatever other people can't speak... As a resultand since I'm used to being dislikedI'll end up living in the middle of my "egocentricity" from now on too. (laugh) That's because we live only once and I don't want to live under any restraint. And although it may not appear so, I'm a perfectionist, and when a day lacks of fun even the slightest, I think "Aw, I failed today!"—and when the day is flawless of fun I say "Never better!"—it's easy to know what I'm thinking... yup. (laugh)

    The people around tell me "You must learn compromise for my 21," but I would rather live happily and having fun than compromising and regretting afterwards if I can't carry on. If things are good for me, it's alright! I'm going to go with that! (laugh) I want to have fun every time when it's possible. This is my main objective. In addition, I want to do lots of things that I can only do while I'm still an idol. I want to make many opportunities for people who don't know me yet—whoever they are—to know me.

    Everyone in the staff concerned, I'll be "a good girl just a little bit," so bring me work!! And I will respect the deadline of this article now that I'm 21!!


    My fans, keep on supporting me (now I'm 21 years old) from now on too!

    ^ The part when Fukuda Akari (STU48 and 2nd in SHOWROOM Senbatsu) threw a Tokyo Tower. Rikachan thanked Fukuda but pointed out that the towers are expensive and also the only ones who will benefit with it are the SHOWROOM and King Records. :^^;: Nevertheless, she said she's going to treat Fukuda to a juice next time. :)

    3C SCHOOL FESTIVAL

    The school festival was held in a venue with capacity for only 1,000 people, but since all tickets had been sold out and to meet the request of those who couldn't get a seat, an extra amount of people was allowed to get in and watch to the show standing up by the wall. And for those who couldn't get in at all, there were food trucks of the event and an outdoor stage before the main event.

    Just watched Rika's Sentansai performance, and the members are rubbing it in as they would Yukirin. Now Rika is a 'super rare chara'. They really made her feel that nothing was going to happen (end the performance without a cake) just before the last encore song or when there was not going to be a letter at all. The members are getting back at her in their own way. The fans created video was also highlighted her 'performance' at SSK and how she was demoted to 'a student' in 3C. The fans, like the members are there for her, but will let her know she is not in their good books recently.

    Also, I feel Rika is being disciplined within NGT48 where she isn't given much spotlight or the priority to talk when it comes to group PR work like before eg PR video for at JAM. She has quiet down recently and I hope this will be a benefit to her.

    "Rikachan 18 Crown2.png 18 Two hearts.png "'s birthday stage was so wonderful 18 Hugging face.png 18 Party popper.png 18 Birthday cake2.png 18 Sparkles1.png
    The stand flower, the display, the video on the LED screen, etc., everything packed up with loooots of love from the fans. It was beautiful and very cute! 18 Bouquet.png 18 Sparkles1.png 18 Two hearts.png
    "Rikachan 18 Crown2.png 18 Two hearts.png " seemed very glad and happy, so I was glad too 18 Smiling face.png 18 Cherries.png 18 Two hearts.png
    What I think "Rikachan 18 Crown2.png 18 Two hearts.png is amazing is that no matter how busy she is, she always carries out everything perfectly! 18 Sparkles1.png 18 Sparkles1.png 18 Sparkles1.png
    I think this is because "Rikachan 18 Crown2.png 18 Two hearts.png " works hard, practicing and learning everything as hard as she can 18 Hugging face.png 18 Cherries.png
    That "Rikachan 18 Crown2.png 18 Two hearts.png " is always shining 18 Sparkles1.png 18 Two hearts.png 18 Sparkles1.png 18 Two hearts.png

    And I think the fans who firmly supported "Rikachan 18 Crown2.png 18 Two hearts.png " when she was busy or in hard times when she would have wanted to give up are really, really wonderful 18 Sparkles1.png 18 Two hearts.png 18 Sparkles1.png 18 Two hearts.png
    We were able to see a "Rikachan 18 Crown2.png 18 Two hearts.png " with a happy smile today thanks to everyone 18 Hugging face.png 18 Cherries.png 18 Two hearts.png
    May this become to "Rikachan 18 Crown2.png 18 Two hearts.png " a year full of smile and happiness 18 Hugging face.png 18 Cherries.png 18 Two hearts.png

    【Rikachan's birthday stage 】The birthday stage was overflowing with pink that Rikachan loves, like in the bouquet and the flower crown.
    The greeting letter was from Ogiyuka (Ogino Yuka), to whom she (Rikachan) has talked a lot lately.
    The design of the cake was inspired after Rikahime's character "Usage." It's a moist fruit cake with plenty of dried fruits.

    【Rikachan's birthday stage ③】Some words of thanks from Rikachan to everyone who celebrated it.
    The extras in the video seems to be in an awkward situation—I don't get it at all—but it seems they are celebrating it anyway.
    And, I asked the Cherry Fairy (Sugahara Riko)—whose character can't be questioned by the Princess—to demand her to deliver the manuscripts of the serial publication on time.

    Today, I'm going to write about the cultural festival! But it isn't about an ordinary school festival. It's the cultural festival of "Youth High School 3rd Year Class C" (TV Tokyo network, every Monday-Friday 5.30 p.m.) which I help to conduct as an assistant teacher.[1]

    In the cultural festival the students presented the various attractions and performances that they had practiced. I followed closely all their rehearsals until the day of the festival and it made me feel a bit nostalgic—This is what youth is about!—If I had lived such a wonderful youth as theirs, maybe I wouldn't have ended up having this twisted personality. (laugh)

    The first ever cultural festival of this TV show had all the students cooperating with each other—working hard and overcoming their worries—and it finished in a great success. As for me, it was the first time I served as a proper master of ceremony hosting both the event and the live broadcast, so it was a bit hectic... I somehow managed to carry out until the end, boosted by the students' endeavor. I learned in this event many things different from those there are doing NGT48's activities. Seeing people of the same age or younger than me joining forces with their colleagues and working hard determinedly for a common purpose encouraged me to make a further effort as an idol as well, yup.

    Dear readers, watch "Youth High School 3rd Year Class C," please. You can check out about the cultural festival on the program's website (http://www.tv-tokyo.co.jp/3-c/). I bet you will recall your youth!


    Seeing the students working hard at the cultural festival
    made me think I should do my best as an idol as well!

    A birthday stage was held at NGT48 Theater on September 2 to celebrate my 21th anniversary!

    This time, the fans asked me in advance about what to do for the birthday stage, so we could "plan everything together." Then, they made the stand flower inspired by my favorite princess, the flower wreath, the display... Everything was cute! I was grateful that they made everything as I have figured—no, it was way better than what I have imagined! I have not enough words to thank my fans! I'm really blessed with fans with such good sense!

    The members also celebrated with me. Reinya (Seiji Reina) has told "I want it to be a great birthday stage so that Rika can feel that NGT48 is her home!" As she said, I perceived in this stage how it's great to have a place where I can come back to. Most of my work now is about hosting TV shows in Tokyo and although I like doing it very much, it's singing and dancing on the stage that I like the most after all. That's why I was very happy performing on the stage after a long time—in fact, since the stage's premiered—It's great to be an idol after all. (laugh)

    Having spent so much time out with the opportunities in Tokyo also made me realize that being able to show my performance to the fans is not something I should take for granted but rather something I should be grateful of. And I will work hard out there too, so that these opportunities can bear fruits! Now that I'm 21 years old, I will work hard, never forgetting that it's all because I have a place I consider home where I can go back!


    Members and fans, thank you very much!

    NGT48 AT BUDOUKAN

    Flowers

    [​IMG] [​IMG]
    Many TV show staffs—like Fuji TV (Hakuchuumu), TV Tokyo (Youth High School 3C), Tulip TV (kitoqun traveller with T) and U-FIELD (producer of shows like Hakuchuumu and Mayonaka)—sent flowers to Rikachan... Where is TV Asahi (Smart Phondue), though??

    Kondo Aya—MC of Toyama's TV Tulip's show kitoqun traveller with T—was present too.
