Higuchi Hina (Hinachima) / 1st Gen

Her portfolio is worthy enough to make her in senbatsu. Even without senbatsu she can do this much so she should be more confident with herself.

In the recent Under Live she looks amazingly pretty compared to the other members. It's blinding. Her eye makeup and lipstick was so spot on.

 

She wrote about the drama in a fresh blog today!

It was the first time in my life I watched pro wrestling…
I didn’t know anything about it until then, and experiencing this new world deeply impressed me!

^ She seems ready to devour

Spoiler

the opportunity, I mean

 

Chima posted a fresh blog yesterday (sorry for being late...). She talks about the weather, Utacon, her niece, and also wrote some uplifting words as a reaction to one of her comments that had her worried. She is truly an angel.

I believe that people who resort to bullying have an unsatisfied heart full of jealousy and prejudice.
They are the ones that are pitiful…

This morning, Hinachima was troubled. While walking outside, she received a message that The 2018 Stage48 Member Ranking has started. But there weren't that many voters yet, and those who voted weren't necessarily all Hinachima fans, or even Nogizaka fans. The thought of not receiving many points worried her. To make things worse, it started to rain.



In panic, she hurried to her hideout, where she has a secret hotline to her good friend Seditious85. Maybe she knew what to do!



When she told her that she already voted for her, she was a bit relieved. But there are many more Stage48 users to convince! "Why don't you go visit each and every one of them? You can get all the members addresses from the Stage48 database." Hinachima knew what to do and visited the admin of the website. At first, he wouldn't hand over the addresses, uttering some mumbo jumbo about privacy. Of course, Hinachima wouldn't take no for an answer and with a friendly smile and a loaded gun, she managed to get what she wanted.



With all the addresses at her disposal, she traveled all around the world, ringing the doorbells of every forum member. "Please vote for me on The 2018 Stage48 Member Ranking", she'd say and put on her best smile.



Did she already came by your house? Maybe she will, or maybe she already did and you weren't at home. Whatever the case, please vote, and don't forget about Hinachima!

 

I will vote! Don't shoot me

Spoiler

actually I don't mind being shot

 

Hahahaha you'll win my vote

 

What were the two factions of Higuchi worshippers split about in the MV to Secret Graffiti?

After a long silence, there was a new blog today! Although it's short, it's good to hear she is having a blast.

Practicing and constantly laughing, it’s really enjoyable!!!
Everyday is motivating.

Wow! Manatsu is quite popular!

New captain?

I do

 

Following the okurigana, it might be 癒やし (iyashi/healing)
I can be wrong though

 

That's what I thought as well, but when I doubt, I'd rather have no translation than a wrong one. Thanks though!

 

Captain please

 

I hope she becomes captain because that would mean a permanent senbatsu spot for her
