On April 28, HKT48 member Reina Tsubaki (26) held a graduation concert at Yokohama Stadium. The idol-loving teenage girl has spent 4,076 days and nights since her debut at AKB48 Theater in 2008. Including the unprecedented three consecutive hegemons, she achieved hegemony in the general election four times, and often starred in various variety shows. This is the idol that created an era of irrationality, and at the end of this ordinary adulthood, we also usher in the farewell of this favorite idol.
As the last concert of the idol, it is also the "king's way" wind. Reina Shihara wore a kimono and shouted, "Let's create a legend together today!" Led by the descendants of HKT48, Riei Kitahara (27 years old) and his former general selection opponent Mayu Watanabe (25 years old) have also made surprise appearances, pointing out that Rino Hara has starred in all 38 tracks. Singing "Sunset を見ているか? The scenes of "Ordinary が好きなんです" were instead sealed, revealing an idol-like smile and charming wink. 30,800 people called "Linai Sauce" one after another.
It refers to Li Naihara has been a fan of the Good Morning family members such as the Good Morning Girls Group since she was a child. I also often go to see their performances. From the beginning when he was ridiculed and teased by the people around him because of his timidity, to now being a producer who personally wields idol groups such as "=LOVE", what has not changed is the spirit of "fan first".
How do you make your fans happy? In the performance, Izuhara Rina will definitely stay on the stage until the end to wave to the fans. In her first 14-year overall election, which aimed to win the championship, she lost to Mayo Watanabe, so she cried out in the background. Even so, she kept smiling and waving to fans until she walked off the stage until the fans couldn't see them.
It refers to the fact that Rino is not a royal idol who often occupies a central position in the group, but is often said to be "non-mainstream". He also said that if he was a fan, "I wouldn't like such an idol, I like to be able to sing and dance purely." Even so, "my fans always see me as a 'king' idol." "She went through a migration due to a gossip scandal. Sometimes the yellow cavity is opened. Advice will also be added on social networking sites. Despite this, she has also established a deep bond with fans through handshake meetings, performances, paid mobile phone emails and even general elections, and overcome various difficulties together. Four hegemonic elections are also inevitable.
Unlike members such as Atsuko Maeda, Minami Takahashi, and Yuko Oshima, Reina Hara leads the team in her own way. Wearing a pure white dress while encore, she expressed her gratitude to her fans: "In my eleven-year idol career, thank you very much for letting me become your 'Linai Sauce'. I also wish you all happiness. I've been very happy for eleven years. ”
The concert, which lasted about three and a half hours, was concluded with a light song "桜、みんなで食べた". "I want to remember my last idol in my heart!" Heisei, super happy! With tears in her eyes, She smiled and walked into the 36-meter-high crown on the main stage. She really, until the end, was a royal idol.
●Refers to the full text of Hara's graduation speech
Thank you all for shouting Encore. I announced my graduation four months ago, and today it's finally that moment. I still can't say it by this time, so please give me a little time to express my gratitude.
First of all, I would like to really thank the brokers and operators of HKT48. Brokers in particular, do a lot to make you really sorry. I am full of gratitude to all of you, and I would like to pay more attention to the HKT48 group in the future. Please listen to the members. The members are plugged up in their own lives as idols. That's why I hope you'll listen to them. But there will also be people who will gaffe, and then please look her in the eye and teach her what is right. Don't act arbitrarily. Believe the fans, believe the members, and go down together. There are many people who have HKT48.In the future, please maintain a good atmosphere of HKT48.
The second thing to thank is the makeup artist and the costume artist. Thanks to everyone, I was able to stand on the stage. Really very grateful. Your work is inseparable from the future HKT48, so please pay more attention to this group in the future.
Then thanks are the performance team, and the concert staff. Thanks to everyone's blessing, my idol career can be so long. After becoming an idol and meeting everyone, the concert was very happy. Although I also like the work of the artist, I still like the stage the most. My heart is filled with gratitude. I'm sorry to make a lot of very wayward requests, thank you for fulfilling them all for me.
I would also like to say to Mr. Yasushi Akimoto that I would like to thank you very much for your training. I fell in love with AKB because of Yasushi Akimoto's lyrics. Now I deeply feel the rareness of Mr. Yasushi Akimoto writing words for me. I'm working as a producer and I'm now writing songs for the new performance. At this time, I will once again experience the strength of Yasushi Akimoto and his greatness. Always appreciated. I feel very happy to meet the song "Lucky Cookies in Love". In the future, please give me some advice and advice.
I would also like to thank the members for their kind dealing with me. This is my invaluable treasure. It's great to meet and get to know everyone. Let me nag again, I hope that everyone can become gentle and strong women. I believe that everyone will be able to continue to bring happiness to the fans. Really, really everyone is a little idiot, but they are all honest, don't lie and work very hard, and I like that to everyone the most. I wish you all happiness! When you are sad and want to talk, or when you are happy and want to share, you can always contact me.
Finally, thanks to the fans. In my eleven years as an idol, thank you very much for making me your "Renai Sauce". You can definitely see what I mean. I'm not good at coddling gentle people, expressing words of gratitude and real feelings, very sorry. Thank you all for keeping an eye on me. In the future, there may be people who like other idols, and I will not be angry about it. But please pay attention to the words and deeds of those who originally came to my aid, and be gentle with the little idols. Please don't become a person who has an improper mind and preaches to the little idol. Next up is the last pact made by idol Shihara and her fans. I want to be the one who can proudly say things like "I once helped Rinna Hara", and I want to try to be very happy. So everyone should be happy. In the past eleven years, I have been really happy. I have never regretted becoming an idol. I never hated or wanted to give up. I really enjoy the work of idols. everyone...... I like everyone the most! Really, thank you very much!
●Yasushi Akimoto's graduation message to Reina Hara "AKB48 refers to Rina Hara"
I once said that "AKB48 is Takahashi Minami". This is because the somewhat clumsy Takahashi Minami strives to realize his dream, which is the best interpretation of the concept of AKB48.
Then, it can now be said that "AKB48 refers to Rinahara". The idol kitchen girl who squatted in the family became a top idol on a whim, and also served as a producer to cultivate her juniors.
Why was It that Li Nai was able to reverse adversity and grow to this day? When I was with her, I noticed that she was always humming songs. Humming not only the songs of the AKB48 Group, but also the songs of her favorite idols at the moment.
Whether it is in pain, sadness or loneliness, especially when she is happy, idols are everything to her. The simple idea of "I like something I like and I want to like forever" is the driving force that has supported her efforts so far.
Although Rinhara is graduating from AKB48, she has been an idol for life. It's been hard. Please continue to refuel in the future.
