Sakamoto Erena (Eretan)

Eretan has been developing a good sense for comedy! On stage and in shows.
Here she is in a recent LOD, with a good timing for countering an overly serious Chiizu:

And in the latest Var48 (1510725):


In a bit sadder news, her parakeet Piichan died last winter. She waited with telling people about it until she started taking care of a new one. Some members commented too:

 

Eretan leading an MC!?! Yeah that just now happened. Tonites Himawarigumi stage. The MC right before Boku no Sakura.

Shame to hear about her parakeet, Piichan. I personally don't keep birds, but I have plenty of other pets. And have lost some over the years, notably my first Rosy Boa (old age) and my second Nile Monitor (cancer). So I can sympathize with how she must have felt then.

 

I just watched her birthday stage from last year (lol a bit late, since it's almost her birthday this year )

Anyway, it was one of the cutest stages ever. Eretan is adorable and I hope she goes far. Definitely my favorite HKT kenkyuusei

Watch some of her Saishuu Bell stages, she is just stunning in those especially the on 7/23. She is rising very quickly on my list as well.

 

Thank you!! I will check them out. I want to see more of her

 

HAPPY BIRTHDAY

ERETAN

15 YEARS OLD!!!!!!

​

Eretan Seitansai tonight!

Little over than 2 hours!

Who is excited?

This guy is excited!

 

Happy birthday Eretan!!!

I'm excited too, Eretan's always fun to watch

 

From her G+, Eretan's flower stand at her seitansai...



Complete with a real glass slipper. Quite impressed actually. Well done Ere-fans!

The performance last night was fantastic. LOTS of fun to watch. And Eretan delivered what I feel was her best unit performance yet. GO WATCH IT IF YOU HAVE NOT!!!!

 

As some of you might know, along with Emiri in senbatsu, Eretan is the only kenkyuusei to also be included in a song on the 6th single.
For some it might only be a theater ed. song without a pv and a fairly large line-up, but for her it's really really really important so she made a cute post:

 

Thank you for translating!
I'm really really really happy for her! Can't wait to hear the song.

 

Throw in "a step back from the 12byou single." And, yep, that would have been me. And after reading your translation, BTW THANK YOU FOR THAT!!!!... Still feeling it is a step back, even if still better then the other 3rd Gen KKS get. Aside from Emiri, obviously.

I want to be excited for Eretan. I really, REALLY do. But looking at my copies of 12byou, and the details for the 6th single.... Jaded, maybe?

 

So last nights Team H theater show marked Eretan's 200th theater performance.

CONGRATULATIONS ERETAN!!!!!!
​

 

Eretan performed the Romance Kakurenbo as Zenza Girl for Team KIV's Christmas Day performance. And she sung it live-vocals. Nothing mind blowing, but it was a pleasant surprise and shows how far she has come in her time as HKT48 KKS member. Recommended to check it out!

 

I just watched the Romance Kakurenbo performance! It was nice, not just because of the vocals but also because of how confident she seemed. She really has come a long way.
I feel like lately they are trusting Eretan both in terms of singing (Koi no yubisaki) and dancing/performing (Tadaima Renaichuu shonichi and immediately a second position).

 

I have gotten the same impression as of late.

Now if it would only translate into more of a push outside the theater. But first, promote this girl!!!

 

Just gonna drop this here from her G+....



Love her hair in this pic. Gives her a bit more mature image. The cute Eretan is growing up.

 

Geez, where the Ere-love at folks!?

So Koi no Yubisaki was performed at yesterday's concert. And it got a new seifuku, according to Eretan.



So cute.

And I agree with Eretan, very Nogi46 style.

 

Wow, so happy they performed Koi no Yubisaki! The seifuku is lovely, as is usually the case with Nogi outfits.

But then, finally, promotion! TII! It's wonderful, and seeing her happy face in all those pictures, and reading her G+ post (even through google translate) is amazing.

 

ERETAN!!!!!!
CNGRATULATIONS!!!!!!

Already had it saved, from her G+. And yes I do it.

And while I am here, her Election Appeal vid is up on YT...


if the video does not show watch the video here

Alternatively, I have the vid saved, if someone wants. Maybe to translate? Yes, I am asking.
