I’m the kind of person who cherish anniversaries.

Good evening

Hinatazaka46 5th Gen, Sato Yu here │ ˙ᵕ˙ )꜆

First of all, thank you so much 

for opening my blog today ( .ˬ. )

It’s a pleasure to meet you all ( ¨̮ )

⟡.· ┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈⟡.·

Counting from the day a person is born, 
they reach their 10,000th day of life 

at around 27 years and 4 months old.

I feel like reaching a new digit in life 

is something really meaningful.

I'm the kind of person 

who cherish anniversaries and milestones, 

so I can't help but pay attention to things like this.

It's still about seven years away, 

but if I remember, I'd love to celebrate it ~.

With this blog post, 

#satoyublog has reached its 100th entry ✍🏻

To everyone who always takes the time to read my blog,
thank you so, so much!

I personally have so much fun 

writing these blogs,
so I’m filled with gratitude 

for everyone who continues to read them.

I’ve always liked writing,
but when it comes to writing about myself,
I often find it surprisingly difficult.

I hope I can show more of my true self in a softer, more natural way~.

I’ll keep writing lots more,
so please come visit again│ ˙ᵕ˙ )꜆

If I hadn’t joined Hinatazaka46,
I was planning to pursue a career as a magazine editor.

I’ve dreamed of lots of different careers over the years,
but since I’ve loved books for as long as I can remember,
that was a job I was particularly drawn to.

By writing these blogs,
I feel like maybe I’m getting just a tiny bit closer
to that dream I once had… maybe.

Anyway, I just wanted to tell you
“Writing blogs is so much fun!”

So thank you always ( ˊᵕˋ )

Did you watch the final episode of 

“Hinatazaka ni Narimashou”?

Since some time has passed since it was released,
I’m going to talk about it now, 

including some spoilers…!

For the final episode, 

we welcomed Rainbow-san as our instructors
and took on various challenges ✨

Over the past year,
I’ve had the opportunity to learn so many different things.

Whether as an idol or simply as a person,
there were so many things that taught me a lot,
and it was truly an invaluable experience.

Personally, 

I think one of the biggest ways
I grew through “Hinatazaka ni Narimashou”
was that I lost my fear of taking on challenges.

Just trying things no matter what,
that’s something I’ve come to value
and want to keep doing.

Even the Ogiri and comments I did in the final episode
are things that the version of me from last year
would never have been able to do.

I’m still far from perfect,
but I have nothing but gratitude for HinaNari,
which gave me the chance to learn
one thing after another like this.

From now on, I’ll do my best 

to put everything I learned from Hinanari
to use on “Hinatazaka de Aimashou,”
“Mada mada! Hinatazaka de Aimashou,”
and in all sorts of other places!

Thank you so, so much 

for watching “Hinatazaka ni Narimashou.”

I’ll continue giving it my all
so that I can become even more like Hinatazaka46!

Love-chan (Matsuo Sakura) suddenly asked me with a very serious look on her face,

“Hey, Yuu-chan, you know…”
She sounded so serious that I immediately braced myself.

I was really nervous about what she was going to say, 

but what came out of Love-chan’s mouth was:

“What do you call this?”
(a picture of an eggplant 🍆)

Love-chan, that was way too serious for an eggplant.

I call it nasubi (eggplant), 

but apparently what people call it differs depending on the region.

Thanks to this serious eggplant incident,
I learned a fun new little fact.

Thank you so much

for staying with me until the end.
