Kondo Rina (Riichan) / 1st Generation

Re: Kondo Rina / Team N

They touched on the topic on the latest Docking (120124). You can watch that part here. (it's gonna be removed soon tho)

They said it's a stye (めばちこ, also known as ものもらい [informal]); Kenkoba joked with it, after the りぽぽEYE.

Re: Kondo Rina / Team N

where all the 1 or 2 riichan fans that need to celebrate her birthday?

 

Re: Kondo Rina / Team N

Wishing her happy birthday on her google account instead of here where it's never going to be read

Birthday girls birthday blog

She also did a short Q&A on G+. so If I get around to that I'll post it here too.

Re: Kondo Rina / Team N

I really love Ricchan , I'm happy that my NMB48 Oshi likes one of my favorite member in AKB48

Thanks for all the translations!!

 

Re: Kondo Rina / Team N

Harugon and Riichan are quite close, whenever they do joint events, they are always hanging out together and doing stuff. I'd translate her other entries but she's up to 410 of them.. and I just don't have the time right now.
Check out her google+ profile, she uploads quite a few videos, and lots of photos.

Re: Kondo Rina / Team N

Riichan finally updated her Google+ after being away all day, so she is the last one to mention the senbatsu lineup.

Spoiler

今日は朝からお仕事が忙しくて
遅くなってすみません！
たくさんの励ましの言葉、
ありがとうございます。
とっても勇気を貰いました。
だけど、大丈夫です！
私はすでに前を向いています！

今回の選抜だけじゃなく、今まででも
外れた事や順位が上がったり下がったり
したことについては
(下がったことの方が多いですが)
正直納得いかない事ばかりだけど、
おかげで私も自分が思う以上に
たくましくなりました！

選抜に入るとか外れるとかじゃなく、
もっともっと高い高いポジションで
輝けるように自分を磨くだけです。

ファンの皆さん、もう少しの間
見守っていて下さい。
必ず取ります！！！
実力で！！！

(Note The last sentence I haven't translated it great, she means on a.. "I'm going to get better, so they won't be able to leave me out again" kind of way. Or That's how it felt to me reading it)

I want to run and hug the girl. Not a single apology, no mention of being upset or frustrated with the result. Just accepting it for what it is, and admitting there are things she can do to improve.
She might be a "Super my pace idol" but she's grown up a hell of a lot recently.

Funnily enough, a commenter on 2ch compared her to Joan of Arc because despite what happens to her she continues to work her hardest. I think the comparison is a little much, but I'm glad other fans notice her hard word too.

And her Translated blog for Today http://blog48.livejournal.com/3039091.html

 

Re: Kondo Rina / Team N

外れたこと／外れる means to "be outside" and they're not talking about "outside work" but rather not being in senbatsu.

also i think you confused 取ります with 取られます, so essentially she's saying "I will definitely get this, with my true strength." or something like that



with that said i am wondering if she can bounce back.
though i was frustrated with kishino and kinoshita h not in, they were still getting work, i dunno where riichan will get hers. or maybe there's something lined up for her in the future just like the two aforementioned.

i used to not like her because of her my pace in NN but she's not as dumb anymore and she's maturing so she's grown on me.

 

Re: Kondo Rina / Team N

^^ thx, adjusted it.

I think she comes off really well with this. Everyone else is all apologetic, and frustrated and I won't quit!! yada yada... copy paste response. Where Riichan has actually given a real response.
If she wasn't already my Oshi, she'd have jumped up any ranking I had for that alone. This just puts her further ahead I guess

 

Re: Kondo Rina / Team N

I was shocked when I read that she is out of senbatsu, it must be really hard for her & her fans which I'm starting to be one of them.
It is like I saw that coming, since I watched the performance of Nagiichi, she was pushed way back.
But I believe it is like a pinch on her cheeks, to wake up a little & improve her self even more, & the managers expect more from her since the beginning, & they need her to fit for the big games.

(Kind of remind me of Milky's situation, but Milky came back stronger than before & she became a good player in the idol world)

Her Solo gravure appears in Shuukan Weekly Playboy today. Seen some poor quality pictures so far, but it looks good. Very happy she got Shuukan Playboy, probably the best magazine to get out of them all I think.

 

Every week Riichan gets her own weekly news column where she asks other members of NMB about things to try and improve herself or things she's interested in about their character. I don't live in Japan so I can't read these for myself in person so I've been reading the scans via 2ch.
This week is Kinoshita Momoka
Scan of the article

Also every week they do an extension piece on their website for the accompanying article.
They can be found here.
http://www.daily.co.jp/gossip/nmb48/column3/

The extension piece for this week with Kimoshita is quite funny.

Spoiler

She tells Riichan to watch her weight and not get fat, right before asking how big she wants her boobs to grow.. lol

 

^ That's amazing,

I am interested to know about the others interviews,

Momoka is funny as always

Can you do the full translation please, I am so interested to know what they're talking about, Onigaishimasu [bow]

 

This weeks Kyoumishinshin.

Spoiler

The second part of the interview may as well be
Riichan - You're awesome
Keiichi - No, you're awesome
Riichan - No, you're awesome!

lol

I'm a little busy atm, my graduation ceremony is this week etc, so I'm going to be travelling to that and stuff. But I'll try and get a couple of the more interesting ones translated at some point.

Riichan has her own meme, although you only seem to see it in her 2ch応援スレ.
Taken from Episode 49 of Star Hime Sagashi Tarou, (The first fuji episode)

Whenever someone says something exceedingly dumb (2ch being 2ch.. this means every other 3rd post) this tends to get posted.
http://tvcap.dip.jp/2011/8/20/110820-2334470734.jpg

Riichan saying, Politely.. "There's no way it's that" or "No way in hell" to be less polite.
Originally it was Riichan rudely cutting off Shiokichi for getting the height of Fuji wrong, but 2ch (or at least Riichan wota's) have adopted it to point out when someone has said something stupid. (I've found it at least 5 times to different comments in thread 39 alone, and I'm only 200 comments down, I've seen it in lots of her older threads too.)

 

Just happened to chance upon her G+ today, and I
like what I'm seeing.. I could pinch her cheeks to
no end.. ^.^

G+ Post, 7:13pm

Rough translation
====================
A picture of me without
makeup perhaps.. ( º∀º)
It's been a while
多分久しぶりの

Since the bath tends to get
hot right away, I'm getting in
quick
今日は早くお風呂に
入ろう♪
もうすぐで沸くよっ♡

Riichan still looks so kawaii with her suppin face

 

Let's just say I could bear it seeing this post.. ^.^
