    Just today I was looking at some Team 8 performance videos and after that decided to check out the members of the team. Quite soon it was clear to me that Hiji was the girl who interested me the most. She's really sweet, and being only 13 years old she has so many chances in store for her. Really looking forward to her activities! My biggest fear now is that in December she might not be among the chosen ones if they decide to cut some members from the team.

    Hiji was part of the line-up at the Sapporo Concert on June 14th and 15th. All the performed songs can be found in the Team 8 thread, but here are two songs which have her best positions:

    Aitakatta (also includes her introduction up close)

    if the video does not show watch the video here

    Iiwake Maybe (Yuko's position!)

    if the video does not show watch the video here

    She looks so bubbly and happy when performing! Definitely my favourite from this team. :blush:

    Here's a small clip featuring Hiji from a local news/variety program aired in Akita:

    if the video does not show watch the video here

    When asked which things surprised her the most during lessons, she says being most surprised about how much the the instructor is focusing on the feelings put into the songs and the expressions when the girls are singing. They even mentioned SSK in the end and reminded everyone to support Hiji!

    I don't know if there'a real media senbatsu in Team 8, but some folks over at 2ch have deducted that the girls in these pictures may be it. Be it media senbatsu or not, Hiji's in it! :blush:

    Inspired by Team 8's performance on yesterday's AKBingo!, I tried to do a gif of Hiji's part in the song:

    Hiji's Ashida Mana voice impersonation from 7:57 to 9:30. [hehe] Great that she gets to showcase her abilities!

    It looks like Sasshi was trying to divert the camera's attention to her ~

    ^ And she did it quite smoothly! Though Hiji hasn't solo-centered anything yet in Team 8, she's been given more and more front-row positions lately. I hope that trend continues in the future.

    Some screencaps of Hiji on last night's AKBingo!:

    Her face in the last picture amuses me greatly. She stayed like that for many seconds, and though the girl next to her averted her gaze from the camera, Hiji kept giving it the stare. [hehe]

    I just sent my impression of Hiji and some blog topics I'd like her to write about through a questionnaire on Team 8's mobile web site (http://m.akb48.co.jp/r/team8). I guess they only accept messages in Japanese, but those of you who know Japanese and are able to access the site, by all means show your support for your favourite girl (even if it'd be someone else than Hiji)! Even if Hiji herself won't be able to read my message, I'll be happy knowing that at least the staff are aware of one more of her fans.

    My charm points

    Perhaps my eyes and eyebrows are my charm points?
    People always tell me that I have distinct facial features (tl. note: the original Japanese expression means something like "a high nose, big eyes"), so I hope that could become my charm point!!

    [​IMG]

    Aside from my eyes and eyebrows, another charm point is my hometown (a person from Akita-ken!! = a funny person!!).
    My friends often say that I'm funny.
    I also get tanned...

    My oshimen's smile
    It's my second entry~!

    This time the topic is "My oshimen's smile", so I chose this photo (^^)v.

    [​IMG]

    I'm still awkward at smiling, but... (laugh)
    I will be trying my best from here on too, so please treat me kindly.

    I'm looking forward to meeting everyone at the handshake event!

    Team 8 is going to release a dialect-infused version of Koisuru Juden Prius this summer, and they're currently filming its PV. Here are some photos from Hiji's part (shot in Akita-ken, Kitaakita-shi):

    Love especially the last photo! <3 The contrast between Hiji's bright outfit and the rainy, lush greenery is absolutely beautiful.
