As far as it goes.






Everyone smiles with Niko-chan's smile!





Good evening 🌙
Hinatazaka46 5th Gen, Tsurusaki Niko here 


Thank you so, so much
for reaching out to my blog today!


Thank you for your continued support today too 🤍




________________



We had a livestream yesterday announcing the formation for the 18th single Hiragana Hinatazaka46!


It was my first time hosting a livestream, but thanks to the warm support of Rio-san, Kirari-san, and Hinanon, I was able to get through it to the end ( ¨̮ )

Thank you again to everyone who watched...!

The archive is already available, 
so be sure to check it out 💭





As announced during the livestream,

The song for the 18th single by Hiragana Hinatazaka46 is titled

"Kaze ni Kinmokusei" (Osmanthus in the Wind) 🍂



And this time, I will be taking on a position on the left side of the front row.

First of all, I believe that it is thanks to all of you who have always found me wherever I am, and who have sent me so many kind words and thoughts, that I was chosen for this wonderful position.

I am filled with heartfelt gratitude to all of you.

Thank you so much, as always!!



When the announcement was first made,
I was certainly surprised,

but honestly, I'm genuinely happy and incredibly grateful to have been chosen for such a wonderful position.


I feel that during this 18th single period, I’ve been given a great opportunity to make a big change in myself.



I also understand very well 
that there are many different opinions about it.



That's precisely why.
I'm prepared to accept it all.

Since you've chosen me, I absolutely don't want to let anyone regret it. I'll do my best to become someone that everyone can acknowledge!



Everytime I was asked about my goals, I think I've always answer with "I want to break out of my shell!"



This isn't because I feel like I'm never breaking out of my shell, no matter how much time passes.

It's because I believe 
there are no limits to what I can break through within myself!



In the approximately one and a half years since joining, I've had countless invaluable experiences.

Recently, I've been able to stand on stage with a greater sense of enjoyment in expressing myself than ever before.

That's why I want to break out of my shell even more and make this a period where I can grow bigger and bigger!!

During this time, I will absorb as much as I can from those around me and work my hardest.



Once again, I'm looking forward to everyone support to the 18th single!

Thank you in advance!!

Yahokichi Shimoda Izuki here. Thank you so much for the miguri m(_ _)m I’m really happy that the 17th single period brought me so many wonderful encounters! It seems like our warm, warm community of Roomies is growing too, and that makes me really happy (˶' ᵕ ' ˶) I often get asked, “Can I become a Roomies too?” ...Like, what do you mean?!!!! If you’re already interested in me, then you’re already a Roomies! 👍🏻‪♡♡ From here, I want to talk a little about my thoughts! The Senbatsu lineup for the 18th single was announced recently on Hinatazaka de Aimashou, right?! I didn't make into the cut this time, but I don’t want all of you to take it too negatively either. I know it’s not easy to change the way you think about something so quickly. I’m the same way, so I understand... This time too, I took a little time to sort through my feelings before putting them into words. So, even if it takes a little time, I want you to spend each day smiling with me. Hiragana Hinatazaka46 ha...

I'm smiling just fine

Recently on Hinatazaka de Aimashou,  both the formation and the Senbatsu lineup for Hinatazaka46’s 18th single were announced. To be honest, it’s really difficult to put into words how I feel about the announcement this time.  To put it simply, I was disappointed. After the Senbatsu announcement was over, plenty of emotions came rushing over me that I couldn’t stop crying. I cried so much that even I was surprised, and my tears made it difficult for me to see what was in front of me. I found myself thinking about everything I had worked hard on during the 17th single period, the things I wanted to work even harder on from here, and how far there still is between the person I want to become and who I am right now. I’m frustrated, and it hurts. Of course, I understand that being chosen as Senbatsu member isn’t everything.  But precisely because I have the ambition to show all of you even more wonderful scenery, I truly regret not being able to make into the cut this time. S...

Let’s update ourselves and make meringue

Spin, spin… Rattle, rattle, rattle… Pop!! Ta-da!      ∧_∧           ╭◜◝ ◜◝ ◜◝ ╮ ‎꒰ ˶ ɞ̴̶̷ ༝ ɞ̴̶̷ ˶꒱ .oO Giving it my all with you, right here, right now! ‎ /づ~‎◝✨       ╰◟◞ ◟◞ ◟◞ ╯ From Kanagawa, 21 years old  Hinatazaka46 5th Ge, Matsuo Sakura here. Thank you, truly, truly, truly, for opening my blog. I want everyone who always supports me,  as well as the future Ohisamas I haven’t met yet,  to have days overflowing with happiness. The formation for the 18th single “Icha Icha Mushi,” which will be released on September 30, was announced the other day. I’ll be promoting it as a senbatsu member. I was able to successfully complete the run of the 17th single, and that was only possible because of all your love and support. Thank you so much. For this single, my position and my pairing are both different from last time, so it feels like I’ve jumped into a whole new world. Now that I’ve been chosen, I want to ma...
