    It is kind of sad that it's taken this long to get to page 3, but her presence outside of the theater has been essentially non-existent, so for the foreign fandom there isn't all that much to talk about.

    She also doesn't have her own room at home, which unfortunately prevents her from doing Showroom on a regular basis. And then, until recently her crappy phone could barely run the app anyway.

    But yes! Recently she got a new phone (well actually it's a hand-me-down from her older sister but anything is better than what she had), which means we finally get better quality pictures on her G+ posts!

    Back to the topic of exposure...
    Saki actually has gotten some outside work too, albeit only in the last 6 months or so. Most importantly she appeared on the past 2 UBUGOE~Voice of Comedy reading theaters. I know it doesn't seem like much, but it's a clear step towards her goal of becoming a musical actress, especially in the connections she was able to make.
    At the very least I see the fact that she was invited back the second time to be a sign that she's been added to the pool of "acting members", which can lead to more opportunities in the future!

    As far as theater goes, Saki is a very skilled performer, and although she wishes more opportunities and freedoms were available to the theater girls she doesn't mind being one. Actually she's a theater fanatic of the same mold as Yuiri, except rather than setting her sights on becoming a "theater goddess" she tries to help in other ways.

    For instance, she had been negotiating with management to give the theater girls something to do during their many free days, and now we have the Boku no Taiyou stage. Of course, I don't know if the Boku no Taiyou revival actually happened because of her negotiating, but she did get her first unit center out of it (Jet Coaster) so it's a win-win situation! :)

    ...It's just a shame that Boku no Taiyou has gone from "a way to allow the girls who lack work this summer to get together and put on their own show" to the crutch for the broken teams that it is now. But at least it's better than nothing...

    I LOVE HER APPEAL VIDEO!! Her singing is great and it was so nice to hear it in a setting like this! Truly shows how talented she is! Alright! While I'm not sure how many fans she has on here let's all do our best! If there was ever a year that she might rank in it's this one! Let's give her the gift of ranking in!!!!

    I was waiting for the memo list blog to post a transcript of the letter (since my Japanese listening isn't so good), but since it seems they haven't yet (and they usually have one up soon after a seitansai) I'll probably just go ahead and translate without it tomorrow or so.
    Letters from members' family are the best ^^

    Anyway, Saki did another karaoke showroom last night. This time with Ayaka and Nozawa Rena:

    She'll also be appearing on kimidare tonight (in about an hour from now) with Ayaka, Ayanan, and Yuiri.
    A very 13th gen kimidare!

    Mr. Inoue Yoshimasa did a show with Kitazawa and Moekyun. Nice to see Sakii and Moe collaborating with a respectable composer.

    its very dissapointing that she didn't rank, watching her showroom afterwards did not help either
