YAMAUCHI YUNA Team: KKS Generation: 3rd Name: Yamauchi Yuna (山内 祐奈) Nickname: Yuna (ゆうな) Birthdate: July 6th, 1999 Birthplace: Fukuoka Height: 153cm
I'm pretty confident she's my favourite 3rd gen. She's just 153cm tall but she looked like a giant compared to the others. Can't wait to learn more about her and see her perform.
Tiffany (I'm gonna start calling her that now, each of my favorite asian girl groups needs a Tiffany ) is going to have her debut on the 18th! Let's see how funny she is, having a special skill of making people laugh. And resembling Tomiyoshi also doesn't hurt in that department. I can't really read it on her face but then again neither can you read it from P-chan's face.
Cool! can't wait! wonder what unit she'll be in ( i hope maria bc i don't like the other nounai units).
Going by my gut feeling, I think it's gonna be Kurukurupa or MARIA. As from now it's: NH 1/1 (Nako) MARIA 1/3 (Hazuki) Pegasus 2/4 (Sae, Emily) Honehone 1/2 (Erena) Kurukurupa 0/6 Undebuted 4 (Miku, Tsuttsun, Tiffany, Misaki) To me Misaki is Honehone material, Miku Kurukurupa and Tsuttsun MARIA or Kurukurupa. But hey, we'll see.
I just finished the her debut and I must say that I'm very impressed. Went in with no expectations and I was amazed at what I saw during the MC's, especially compared to all the former debutees. She had good chemistry with the others and no fear to be upfront, acting as the main antagonist against Tani. Imitations, deep voices, quick retorts, getting up in people's face (litterally), pushing Tani back, faking an attitude towards her and finally pushing the Kurukurupa pillow in her face. She did it all. Her unit was Kurukurupa, something that is ideal for somebody that's able stand her ground in variety stuff. So it was pretty fitting. It also allowed her to do more MC, which I gladly welcomed. But the big disadvantage of Kurukurupa is that I couldn't really get a good image of her dancing and singing so I hope to see her in another one soon as well. From the bits I heard her sing solo it seemed ok, she had a slightly deep singing voice. All in all I was very impressed, especially because she's already able to do great interactions during MC's. I think she has to be among my top 3 favorite 3rd gens. For now the best variety 3rd gen in my opinion aswell. Don't let yourself be fooled by her profile picture, watch the LOD and see her special skill in action. If you'd ask me to which debut is a definite must-watch, I'd be this one. Here are some screencap compilations, beats posting 40 seperate ones:
i really agree she is variety type and can speak fine but the interactions was pure troll mode on marika or she is a angry tsundere ?
I agree with DeJure. She is quite a revelation! So natural and responsive during MC, her stand up and confrontation with Tani was pure gold! Compared to the other stiff and "scared" 3rd gens she was amazing! thumbs up for Tiffany!
We'll see how she is after a couple of performances, but I'm thinking that she'll be able to handle a lot of various situations. I felt her character come trough the wording of her answers too, could just be me though lol. What do you like to do during vacations: Sleeping a little longer, it's just pleasant. But I swear I never sleep during lessons. Special skill: The 'Yuna Smile'. I'm glad when I can give everyone a smile on their face for the remaining time of the performance. If you compare yourself to an animal, which one would it be: My friends say that I have a 'Pyonpyon' image, so I'd say a rabbit. How do you like to spend your spare time: Brush my teeth. I can enjoy the various tastes of toothpaste while I'm brushing and afterwards I feel refreshed. Your techiques against the cold: Drinking lemon tea. I drink it before I go to sleep, it warms up my body, gives me a pleasant feeling and allows me to sleep like a log. Your wintertime memories: The time when I had my first Christmas party on the same day my little sister was born. Your favorite word: "Happy". I just get happy and excited when I hear it. There was a recent Pajama drive performance featuring quite a bit of MC with her in it. I'm going to search for that and see how she does. In any case this girl is pretty great.
Sadly her second appearance at the Theater in yesterday LOD wasn't as good as the first. Can't really say about her performance due to Emiri oshicam, but during the MC she was more restrained and "scared", a behavior similar of other 3rd gen. I guess we could expect these up and down from 3rd gen until they gain confidence in themselves... Also she seems a little annoyed at Tani harassment attempts [wonder]
I thought exactly the same! I was kind of surprised, maybe I was anticipating her MC parts a little too much >.< Well it's only her second(?) stage, she still has plenty of performances to master her talking skills haha
Yeah so a couple of months later lol To be honest her earlier level from her debut is entirely back. I'm sorta suspecting that Emily coming out of her shell had something to do with it as they're a nice combination in MC's. Seems like they get along and work well together. Now I look forward to her appearance in Pajama Drive in a full member spot, as Kurukurupa is a bit of a gimmicky, silly unit. In any case, today the new G+'s opened and here's her translation: [山内祐奈] Yamauchi Yuna G+ – 14.04.14 Natsu seems quite the fan lol
I was really impressed in her singing skill. Very powerful and correctly pitched. I need to check more LOD to confirm that.
Reupload of her Romance Kakurenbo Mod edit: deleted dead video link and yesterday's himawarigumi shonichi in Junjou Shugi Mod edit: deleted dead video link After Hazuki that was probably my fav shonichi performance. She did well.
Tiffany's seitansai has been scheduled for July 9th. This wasn't originally announced when they released the scheduled for this day, but yesterday they posted a note on the website about it. So either they forgot to mention it was her seitansai before, or they just decided later that it should be the seitansai. http://www.hkt48.jp/news/2014/07/010470.html
Yuuna-chan~♡ yuuna-chan interview hayo~ Today I realized Yuuna-chan talks in almost the exact same way as Takeuchi Mai from SKE48. Gonna follow her on G+ again. Can't give her up!@ Entame-NEXT Special Interview - Yamauchi Yuuna Part 1/3 HKT48 Yamauchi Yuuna, Makes an Impression of That Person While Wearing Black Tights?! July 7, 2014 Original link: http://www.entamenext.com/news/detail/id=733 Info - Name: Yamauchi Yuuna, born July 6, 1999 in Fukuoka. Nickname: Yuuna. Accepted into HKT48 during 3rd gen auditions in August 2013. Made first stage appearance in Himawari-gumi's "Pajama Drive" show in November, and made performance debut during Kenkyusei "Nounai Paradise" show in December. --First, a question that we ask everybody. What is your oldest memory of yourself? Yamauchi: I remember I cried everyday in a daycare center when I was three years old. I would hug my mother and cry when she came to pick me up. My teachers, friends and my mother were worried about me. --Were you extremely shy? Y: Yes. I got embarrassed easily and I was very timid. When a stranger talked to me, I was the type of child who hides behind her mother. --Were you better with interacting with children your age? Y: I didn't talk to anybody who wasn't a very close friend. I'm all right now. --What did you do, how did you play with those close friends? Y: Things like playing house and playing tag. But because I'm slow, I always got caught. Once I became the monster, I couldn't catch anybody. --It seems like you were really a quiet child. Y: But I was always noisy at home (laugh) --Ah, I see. What were you like at home? Y: I did a lot of impressions of people. --Who, for example? Y: Whichever comedian I was interested in at the time, like Edo Harumi-san (chuckle) --Wow, that's certainly a tough choice for impressions… (laugh) Y: I did while wearing black tights. I wore a regular T-shirt on top, though. --Did you ever do impressions outside of your house, in front of your friends? Y: Of course not! No, no! (laugh) --Do you have siblings? Y: I have a younger sister. Our ages are quite apart, so even now she asks me to play tag with her. She even asks me to do it inside our house. But you know, you can't run inside the house, but I have to do it anyway. My sister's much more athletic than me, so she's very hard to catch. On top of that, because she's small, she can hide somewhere where I cannot find her. --So in any case, your household seems very lively. Did you learn any extracurricular skills? Y: I took piano and calligraphy lessons. When I did piano recitals, I was so nervous that I worried my hand would stop moving. I was bad at performing in front of people. --What about calligraphy? Did you have very serious training? Y: I'm good at using the pen. I've passed some levels in it. --That's impressive. Good writing can be very helpful after you grow up. Y: My writing was very ugly when I was young. When I wrote 'ya' (や), the character would look more like 'ka' (か)… (laugh) My friends laughed at me and called me "Kamauchi". --That's quite common, like 'tsu' (ツ) and 'shi' (シ). First part ends here, join us next time!
