▽ Yukichan, congratulations. Minarun / Oba Mina Blog / May 7, 2015; 10:45 pm (JST)

今日はゆきちゃんの17歳の
お誕生日、そして生誕祭でした✨
Today was Yukichan's 
17th birthday and Seitansai


新しい生誕祭を目撃しました。
ゆきちゃんがあんなに
人間不信だったなんて。
1年間悩んでいたなんて。
I could witness a new Seitansai.
Yukichan was really 
disliked.
She suffered one year.

でもすごくゆきちゃんらしくて
ニコニコしちゃいました(⌒∀⌒)
But she really smiled 
like her true self


努力家で
公演を支えてくれてる
大切な存在です
と言っても
信じてくれなさそう。笑
Even if I tell her
that she supports the performance
as a hard worker 
and is an important person,
she won't believe me. lol


でも今日プレゼント渡したら
すっごい喜んでくれました。
嬉しい(⌒∀⌒)
本当におめでとう!
But when I gave her a present today,
she was super happy.
I'm glad!
Congratulations!


今日の公演楽しかったなぁ!
チームKⅡ大好きやぁ
Today's stage was fun~
I love Team K2

5月18日の

▽ I could eat Takoyaki! Minarun / Oba Mina Blog / May 3, 2015; 10:36 pm (JST)

今日はインテックス大阪で
写メ会でした!
Today we had 2-shot-Event 
at Intex Osaka!


大阪だから
あまり人来ないかなぁと
不安になったりしたけど
たくさんきてくれて感動。
ありがとうございます。
Since it was Osaka,
I was worried not many
people would come but
I'm grateful many came.
Thank you.

女の子もたくさんきてくれて
私なんかより可愛い子や美人さんや
こんな私に感動してくれる子まで
有難い。もっと努力しよ。
Also many girls came
and somehow many that are cuter or more beautiful
or really really impressed me,
I'm really grateful. I'll put more effort.


あと最近よく感じるのは
生誕グッズだったり、
私の公式グッズだったり、
身につけてきてくれる方が
どんどん増えて
嬉しい!!!
And recently I often feel that,
when I wear Birthday goods,
or other official goods by me,
the people who wear it also 
increase!
I'm happy!!!


ただ今日は少しばかり
睡眠不足で
頭が思うように働かなくて
皆さんにがっかりさせてしまう
対応したのではないかと
ちょっと不安です。
本当すいません(´・ω・`)
Today I had only few sleep
so my head 
doesn't work so well,
so I'm a little nervous that
I disappoint you when corresponding.
I'm really sorry.

明後日と明々後日に
横浜でまた写メ会があるので
お待ちしております!
では~
みなるん。
Since we will have another 2-shot-event
in Yokohama the day after tomorrow and the day after,
I'll be waiting!
So see you~
Minarun.

Golden Week!( ̄+ー ̄)Miyazawa Sae / Miyazawa Sae SKE-Blog / May 3, 2015, 10:41 pm (JST)

昨日は横浜アリーナで全国握手会!
今日は大阪で写メ会!
ゴールデンウイーク、たくさんのファンの方に会えてあっという間に過ぎていってます(⌒▽⌒)✨
昨日今日と会場に足を運んでくださった皆様、
本当にありがとうございました!!m(._.)m❤
Yesterday was Nationwide Handshake Event in Yokohama Arena!
Today was 2-Shot-Event in Osaka!
I spend the time meeting lots of fans since it's Golden Week!
Everyone who came today and yesterday,
thank you very much!! m(._.)m♥

明日はないけど、
明後日と明明後日はまた写メ会がありますね(o^^o)📷✨
来てくださる皆様!
楽しみにしています!!!|( ̄3 ̄)|💋
Tomorrow is nothing, 
but the day after tomorrow and the day after that we have 2-shot-event again (o^^o)
Everyone who will come,
I'm looking forward to you!!!

写メ会ではあまり会話ができないので、
なるべくポーズは考えて来てくれると、
表情を作るのに余裕をもって写真を撮ってもらえるかも!!笑
Since we can't talk much at 2-shot-event, 
it's preferable if you think about the pose in advance,
so there is more time to think about the facial expression when you take a picture!! lol

ちなみに
【佐江ちゃんのオススメポーズ】は、
95%の割合で
【てばさきポーズ】です。笑
5%の確率で、思いつきのポーズが出てくる可能性もあるけどね。笑
、、、そこらへん、よろしくでぇす✌( ̄+ー ̄)❤✨
By the way,
my recommended pose is
in 95% of the cases
"Tebasaki-Pose" lol
In 5% of the cases there is a chance I come up with an own pose. lol
,,, so, see you!

今日の写メ会は、
真っ白のお洋服をコーディネートをしました!(^^)
For today's event,
I wore a coordination of completely white clothes! (^^)

写真は りょーは が撮ってくれたよ(((o(*゚▽゚*)o)))💕✨
白い服着てたから、食べ物こぼさないように気をつけまくった。笑
でも靴を汚してしまって、まじで凹んでる。(; ̄ェ ̄)
おニューだったのに。。。(._.)💦
ママさんに洗ってもらいます。。。(^.^)❤笑
Ryoha took that picture!
Since I wore white clothes, I had to take lots of care when having food not to make it dirty. lol
But I made my shoe dirty, so bad.
even though they were new... (._.)
Mama will clean them for me... (^.^)♥lol

もうすぐドラフト会議もあるし!、
今月も公演にたくさん出れそうだし!、
5月もファンの皆様とお会いできる機会が多そうで嬉しいよ~ん(o^^o)
一回一回を大事にしたいと思います!!!★彡
Also we have the Draft-Event soon!
And I'll be in lots of stages this month!
And I'm happy it looks like I'll be able to meet many fans in May! (o^^o)
I want to treasure every time!!!


会えてない時も連絡取り合っちゃうくらいラブラブな、さえりょーは❤❤❤
あと、
最近、、、
やたら仲のいい、、、、、
Even when we don't meet, it's still deep love, SaeRyoha♥♥♥
And,

It was what I thought the whole day 



Haruppi's Letter to Sakura for her Seitansai / May 2, 2015 (JST)

Dear Sakura,

Happy 17th Birthday!

It's been half a year since you've been back to Fukuoka, huh? Welcome home.

You've been so busy since Kouhaku at the end of last year that we haven't been able to meet, but
because of Meijiza, lately we've been able to spend time together again. I couldn't be happier. It's just normal, everyday conversation and we talk as if nothing has changed, but I'm so content.

I believe I can do my best when you're next to me. Even though we're in the same generation, you're someone really special.

"Haruppi, you're my comrade in arms." You said that to me. When you did, I thought of us as two friends joining forces to fight. I wanted our relationship to be one in which together we knocked over any obstacles in front of us one by one, spurring each other on as we struggled.

Our dream of being double centers came true. With just you at my side, I can have peace of mind. Thanks for everything, always.

I pray that from here on more of our dreams will come true as we bring HKT48 to higher heights together. With that, I'll end my letter here, with my feelings of gratitude to the 17-year-old Miyawaki Sakura and my wishes for you to flourish even more.

Sincerely,

Kodama Haruka

Disclaimer: This translation is based off of a transcript of the letter that someone on Twitter linked me to. I was hoping either Sakura or Haruppi would post a picture of the letter themselves like last year, but since that hasn't happened in either of their latest G+ posts, there's only this for now. If they do post it eventually and there's any corrections that need to be made, I'll amend my translation here.

▽ Nagashima Spa-Land. Minarun / Oba Mina Blog / May 1, 2015; 10:13 pm (JST)




今日はついに念願の
ナガシマスパーランドに
行ってきました(*^^*)
Today I finally went
to the desired
Nagashima Spa-Land(*^^*)

わーい
わーい
わーい
Wow
wow
wow

楽しかった(*^^*)
あまりアウトドアなタイプじゃない
私だけどすごく満喫しました!
It was so much fun(*^^*)
Although I'm not quite the outdoor-type,
I really enjoyed it!


私が絶叫系全般苦手なので
とりあえず拒んで見守ってたのですが
やはり少しは頑張らねば、と
一回転のジェットコースターに
挑戦してみたり。
Because I'm generally weak towards all screaming-based things,
I refused anyway and just watched,
but I had to give my best a little bit,
so one time I tried to ride
a roller coaster. 

_(:3」∠)_
結果どうだった?と聞かれたら
怖かった。としか言えないけど
一つでもみんなと乗れて
嬉しかった!✨
When I'm asked "How was it?",
all I can say is "scary", but
I'm happy I could at least ride once 
with everyone!

あとは基本的にキッズコーナーに。
あ、お化け屋敷入りました。
After that I just entered the kids-corner.
Ah, and the haunted house.

ただ夕方閉園だったので
もう一つ挑戦したかったやつが
乗れなかったので
また来ます(*^^*)
ありがとうございました!
Since the park closed down in the evening
I couldn't challenge myself to another ride,
so I'll come again (*^^*)
Thank you!


明日は横浜アリーナで
全国握手会です
私はりおんと同じレーン\(°ω° )/
なのでりおん推しのみなさま
よろしくお願いします。
Tomorrow is Nationwide Handshake Event
in Yokohama Arena.
I'm in the same line as Rion!
So all fans of Rion, thank you in advance.
その他のファンのみなさんも
待ってます!🌸
全国握手会楽しみです。(*^^*)
みなるん。
I'll wait also for all the other fans!
I'm looking forward to the Nationwide Handshake Event. (*^^*)
Minarun.
