==============================
MXテレビ「日曜はカラフル」 週替わりアシスタントを務めさせていただきました！生放送での大役でとても緊張していましたが、アンミカさん、クリスさん、有村昆さん、りゅうちぇるさんとパワフルな方ばかりでとても楽しかったです！また出られたらいいな〜

ありがとうございました
-----------------------------------------------------
MX TV “Sunday is Colorful” I was the weekly assistant! I was very nervous because of the big role in the live broadcast, but I enjoyed it with all the powerful people like Amika, Chris, Arimura Kun and Ryucher. I hope I can come out again ~

Thank you very much
-----------------------------------------------------


they showed some old Janken pics .... ow, that was not a good look imho
I dont't think I would have recognized Miicchan ... and I for sure don't recognize the other two members

============================
お仕事終わりに地元に帰って、中学時代の友達と合流。キリギリスでウーロン茶（友達はノンアルビール）をしばき、大好きな焼肉屋さんでごはんを食べた充実な1日。キリギリスグラス、可愛いです。お立ち寄りの際はぜひお土産に。
--------------------------------------------------
Return to home after work and join a friend from junior high school. A day filled with oolong tea at a grasshopper (a friend is non-albeer) and a meal at a favorite yakiniku restaurant. Grasshopper is cute. Make a souvenir when you stop by.
--------------------------------------------------

btw: You can buy the glasses if you're happen to be in the neighbourhood

 

UTAGE always seems to be a lot of fun,

I guess Naacchan is Sayanee's 'official' replacement now, I mean .. as an AKB menber, because I expect Sayanee will keep appearing on her own strength as well.

 

It's always nice to find out someone doesn't seem bigoted or prejudiced

funny, they let Miichan kick off/lead the MC ...
(and something seems to be difficult ...)

but then again, MC-ing is one of Miichan's top skills

you might have heard, there's a typhoon headed for Tokyo
Miki-chan tweeted this earlier
https://twitter.com/mikinishino4/status/1182837517088747520
===================
みなさん、台風大丈夫ですか？？ 今日は家から出ないように
-----------------------------------
Everyone, Typhoon, Are you all right? Do not leave home today
----------------------------------
turns out she isn't at home, she's staying over with Miichan

https://twitter.com/chan__31/status/1182894211101708290
======================
昨日のうちにお水や食料を買い、モバイルバッテリーフル充電、お風呂にお湯を溜め、ランタンがあることも確認しました。西野未姫ちゃんも家にいるのでメンタル面もバッチリです。皆さんもどうかお気をつけて。入ってくる情報を大袈裟と思わず、自分の身を守ってくださいね。
---------------------------------------
Yesterday we bought water and food, fully charged the mobile battery, stored hot water in the bath, and confirmed that there was a lantern. Nishino Miki-chan is also at home so the mental side is perfect. Please take care. Please protect yourself without thinking of incoming information as a captain.
---------------------------------------

 

lol ... at the end "ow, damn! should I have moved forward?" ... and the looks of concentration by both Yukirin and Miichan

some pics from UTAGE's twitter feed

btw that's a real nice solo pic of Naachan

this video has a preview of most performances ... (I suspect Miichan is beatboxing again at the end?)

https://twitter.com/utage_tbs/status/1180467674175827970

And Miichan tweeted about the Typhoon aftermath:
https://twitter.com/chan__31/status/1183307641591742464
=============================
強風で窓が叩かれる音や初めて聞く警報、さらには地震まで...緊張感と不安でいっぱいな一夜が明けて、とんでもない快晴。心配していた家族も無事でホッとした反面、テレビに映る深刻な状況に胸が痛いです。被害に遭われた皆様、心よりお見舞い申し上げます。少しでも早く日常が取り戻されますように
----------------------------------------------------
The sound of a window being struck by a strong wind, the first alarm to be heard, and even the earthquake ...
A night full of tension and anxiety dawns, and it's an amazingly sunny day.
The worried family was safe and relieved, but I was hurt by the serious situation on TV.
I would like to express my sincere condolences to all those who have suffered damage.
So that everyday life is regained as soon as possible
--------------------------------------------------

edit: it's of course beatboxing .. and not putting beets in a box :/

 

Of course she is beat boxing.

But she also knows how to sing.

I was so surprised it turned out she had a solo song... she didn't mention that on twitter

(And Naachan almost seem to be fangirling over her senpai )

Btw, I liked Miichan's dress

I think the directors choices were kind of funny in this
https://twitter.com/8c3iy0PhNlJU5WX/status/1183364550239801345
He focused on the two male vopcalists of course, but for the rest it's Yukirin and Miichan .... kinda ignoring DA PUMP
Anyway Yukirin and Miichan obviously had fun, look at the contrast with the rehearsal footage ... that was all work ... this was all play

Miichan was/is invited to a talk event about the movie 解放区 (Liberation zone):
https://twitter.com/chan__31/status/1183957364472369153
=======================
トークイベントに参加させていただくことになりました！こういった機会はあまり経験がないので今からドキドキ。ぜひお越しください。
-----------------------------------------
I will participate in the talk event! I don't have much experience with these opportunities, so I'm excited. Please come by all means.
-----------------------------------------
like te narration and presentation about the world championship rafting she did last year, it's something quite outside her normal work, but as she said ... it's an opportunity
from what I understand here are 4 showings of the movie with a talk event after (or before) with the director of the movie, Ōta Shingo, and a guest, the fourth is with Miichan.
(not exactly sure what the connection is, maybe he directed Miichan is a music video or a documentary?)

 

well, Miichan has arrived in Taiwan

https://twitter.com/kamyinlaw/status/1185144996220944385
=====================
みぃちゃん台湾に到着されました！可愛いすぎる、大～～好きです
また明日ね！ #峯岸みなみ
-------------------------------------
Translated from Japanese by
Mi-chan has arrived in Taiwan! too cute
I like it
See you tomorrow! #峯岸みなみ
-------------------------------------

(if I look at the hat ... well, it's halloween .... but where is her broom and her cauldron?? )

 

From Yuko's birthday.

"AKB48 in Taipei 2019〜Are You Ready For It？”@台北アリーナ ありがとうございました！あんなに素敵な会場で沢山の声援に包まれ歌って踊れることができて本当に幸せでした。アベマの卒業も見届けることができて嬉しかった。とても綺麗だった。 台湾の皆さん、再見♡
--------------------------------------------
"AKB48 in Taipei 2019-Are You Ready For It?" Thank you @ Taipei Arena! I was so happy that I was able to sing and dance with so much cheer at such a wonderful venue. I was happy to see Abema's graduation. It was very beautiful. Taiwan, everyone again ♡
-------------------------------------------


last costumes? Blue Rose?

Yeh Furby posted these on facebook, last one was for writing (birthday?) wishes for Miichan at the stadium


and there's a link to the opening of the concert (same source, Yeh Furby):

if the video does not show watch the video here
They were performing , among others, Aitakatta .... it's kinda funny to realize that Miichan first performed that song while the rest of the members there were probably still in Kindergarten (2006, so Miichan was 14?)

ow, and it's seems he/she had these made

 

https://twitter.com/chan__31/status/1185816880738553857
=========================
優子のお誕生日祝えました。 顔面いっぱい動かして喜ぶ姿がずっと変わらなくて、そりゃあ愛されるよな〜って、また今年も思った。おめでとう！ 年々綺麗に、魅力的になっていくこじゆう。私もそうなりたいなぁ
---------------------------------------------
I celebrated Yuko's birthday. I thought again this year that the figure of joy with moving my face was not changed, and I would love it. Congrats! Kojiyu is getting more beautiful and attractive year by year. I want to be like that too
---------------------------------------------

that's one of the bonds that remains strong, they probably don't meet up all that often as they are all busy, but eventually they will

someone posted some more pics from Taiwan, I guess when Miichan was leaving:
https://twitter.com/kamyinlaw/status/1185794687455490048
==============================
バイバイ～お疲れ様でした！ また日本ね
大～～～好きだよ
#峯岸みなみ
------------------------------------------------------
Bye bye, Thank you for your hard work! Japan again
I like it #峯岸みなみ
-----------------------------------------------------

(I kinda wonder how you keep a cap like that in your luggage without it being crushed ... but maybe she picked it up in Taiwain)
She looks stylish .. and surprisingly attractive, even tough you can only see her eyes

 

With old friends.

And Miichan had her movie talk with Shingo Ota:

If I were him, for sure I would have had a stupid grin on my face the whole time
there are tweets from him and Miichan (but the google translate doesn't really make sense to me, so I won't post the translation)

Story in Pop'n'Roll

"A screening talk event for the movie “Liberation Zone” was held at Theater Shinjuku on Wednesday, October 23, and Minami Minegishi (AKB48) and Shingo Ota were on stage.

“Liberation Zone” is a feature film debut directed by Shingo Ota who was completed in 2014 but never released to the theater for five years. This day, 6 days after release. Despite the weekdays, many movie fans visited the theater tonight, and the theater was full.

Takane:
Mr. Minegishi also gave an official comment on this movie. What are the connections between them?

Ota: In order to publish the movie, I wanted people to watch it anyway. At that time, I was looking at Minegishi's Twitter, and she was very familiar with the movie and thought that every comment deeply captured the work. Very simple, what would this person say if she watched this movie? I asked for contributions.

Minegishi:
I like mini theater movies. There are many works that depict the true nature of human beings. So I was very happy that I received a request for a comment on “Liberation Zone” and I was looking forward to this talk event.

The connection between Ota, the director of “Shocking” set in Nishinari, and the active top idol, Minegishi, was something that everyone was interested in, but they both met for the first time. "

The interview continues.
