The Sato Masaki Thread (佐藤優樹)

[oaxiac]

Masaki appears on HBC radio to reveal her embarrassing encounter with a cow, and explain "Yahho-Tai"

Ω 『さなみよアップステージ』　2014/04/06

Host: Well... would you mind telling us a secret about yourself that you have never told to anyone?

Sato: Umm.... Once I, ummm.... one morning, I kicked a ball into a cow!

They actually put two topics in this post. The first one is actually based on the "Hokkaido Snow" story that was already mentioned HERE.  Just scroll down until you get to the second/newer one.

^ I find it rather disturbing for her to be that low

Well IDK how long that can last before giving her a possible ultimatum for studies

For those who haven't seen the DVD from which this comes, she doesn't only get Yasshii...she pretty much gets everyone.

Happy Birthday Maachan! 

10ki Sato Masaki (14)
——-
I think Sato’s awareness has really changed. Recently I’ve heard her say the phrase 「I want to grow」 from her own mouth. At the beginning she used to say 「I just want to do it the way I can have some fun」, that part of her really strongly feels that way and she prefers it above all else. Now, instead of saying 「I don’t want to lose」 she says 「I want to grow」. There’s unexpectedly a lot of difference in feeling between those phrases. I think the fact that Sato is beginning to express that idea from herself actually shows that she has indeed grown. Even though she’s doing it in her own way, I feel this girl has also start to properly aim higher.

……. but besides all that, she’s still the same innocent Sato in the end. In this aspect, on the contrary I don’t want her to change that part of hers. It doesn’t matter if I tell her to do or don’t change that part though, for the moment I don’t think she’ll change anytime soon. Like when Sayumi talks to the other members, she’d look at me with a face that says 「Why?」 (lol), it’s like she’s saying 「Don’t talk to Michishige-san~ she’s mine」.
It’s the very picture of a child’s selfishness but I can’t help but find that part of her personality to be awfully cute.

Maachan's blog post about Sayu's graduation announcement:

Yahhoーtai
 
Yesterday
 
We had concerts in Yamaguchi Prefecture
 
Lots of things happened…T_T
 
From Morning Musume。
 
Maaーchan’s beloved
 
Tanasa-tan and Minishige-san will both be leaving…
 
But Masaki mouーーwon’t cry
   
Graduation is not a sad thing
   
It’s taking a step forward
 
It’ll probably come some time for Masaki too…
   
Though there’s only half a year more
 
I guess it’s like there’s still half a year too…
   
Though I don’t know which it is…
 
She’ll eat lots of food
 
and do her fill of work
in Morning Musume。14′
 
so before I won’t be able to see
 
Minishige-san anymore
 
I want to see it all
   
This half year I deーーーーーfinitely
   
won’t put to waste
 
No regrets　No crying
 
To that extent
 
I want to live this half year with everything I have…（≧∇≦）
 
In just a bit longer
the 9th gen-sans will be the most senior
 
and so with the 9th gen-sans who will aーーlways be there too
 
I want to become
 
closer and closer
 
When I really think about it
 
since Minishige-san
 
has said that when Masaki and the rest have grown
 
“I’ll probably graduate？？？？”
   
to say it well
 
I wonder
 
if we’ve been able to properly grow？？？？
 
…lol
   
I’m thinking too much about it, huh…
 
Masaki will aーーーーーーlways
 
follow Minishige-san
 
My beloooooーved
 
Minishige-san
 
and
 
Tanasa-tan

Maachan, the little devil

How would you divide the members of Morning Musume ’14 into the categories of angel and devil? Who is pure-hearted like an angel, and who is sneaky like a little devil? Please choose, and tell us your reason why.

Sato is completely a devil. There’s no way she’d have a personality like that without being a devil (lol) And furthermore she treats everyone around her as if they were devils like her too. Sato tends to say “I hate you” and start having childish squabbles with the other 10th gen members, and most of the time she’s like “I won’t ever talk to you again” or “I’m telling Minishige-san!!” (lol) But more than her being a devil, it’s just that everyone has grown to accept that that’s Sato’s personality. And if Sato didn’t acknowledge this about the people around her, it’d be a problem too, but as a member of Morning Musume, it feels like “Sato’s just like that”, and because we understand this, we are able to have fun with it. Especially within 10th gen itself. That’s why this turned out so well, and it allows Sato to unleash her devil side freely.

Some other attributes that usually comes to my mind when hearing it used to describe ppl in japanese media 

Tenshi : Angelic-> soothing, calming, airy, dignified, kind, accommodating, (seemingly) without facade.

Koakuma : Devilish-> irresistible charms, being able to make you do things for her in spite of everything else (whether on purpose or not doesn't matter). Bitter laughs and mild resentment are the usual side effects.

Here she is showcasing some of her irresistible charms:


Her mischievous side:

What does it mean to be alive?


 

Maachan's improved singing

I was most struck by the improvement Ishida Ayumi and Sato Masaki had made....

As for Sato Masaki, her singing prowess has obviously increased, and during her line in Naichau Kamo, she was able to convey the gloominess of the line and make you pause at it. For this girl, you can never tell if she's planning something or doing it spontaneously, but it seems that this time round, she has been putting a lot of thought and work into her own singing style.

Dude that "what does it mean to be alive" video... Made my night

[oaxiac]

start at 1:38

Host: So you both wrote that the most ‘tennen’ (airhead) member is Maachan, right?

HarunaAyumi: Yes!

Ayumi: She is an airhead but also a genius.

Host: Yeah, that person really is amazing.

Haruna: She is spontaneous and she always says weird things. The other day, when I, Kudo-chan and Maachan were sitting in a taxi, Maachan said to me "Nee, Haruna, today I changed my shampoo, look look!!! Sha~ran~Q” then she tossed her hair.

Host: *laugh laugh laugh* It would be so funny if she did that to Makoto-san at Haro concert.

Millenium Girls: Sato Masaki x Kudo Haruka

Kudo: We'd never met a person like Maachan, a person who's beyond natural airheadedness, so we were completely clueless on how to treat her.

***
Sato: I thought that only Americans appeared on the television.

Morning Jogakuin 14-07-27
140726 譜飯佐

I don’t know how to sub. So I just give a summary(focusing on Maachan).

-Maachan is today’s host.

-First, they talk about Smileage’s Budokan concert, and Maachan says it was fun and the final speech was both touching and funny.

-And Maachan changes the subject to a Hawaii tour. Then suddenly, she says she wants to turn back time. She used to put back the clock in the classroom, so as to surprise her teacher. She hopes that like the clock, she could put the universe backward sometimes.

-Back to a Hawaii issue. Maachan persuades 10ki(and 9ki) to bring their own swimsuit with them so they can swim in a hotel pool. But it turns out that Maachan is the only one here who has her own swimsuit. Maachan says it’s because she used to go to the sea every time Sapporo’s temperature rised up to 27℃.

06:14 Maachan calls Mizuki “Fuku-chan”

-around 07:00 They call their own attendance number. The theme is how to avoid the heat, but something flashes upon Maachan’s mind. She points out that their number is 715(Maachan 7, Mizuki 1, Haruna 5), which is the day of Smileage’s concert. (At this point, Mizuki and Haruna have already fallen into Maachan’s world!)

-Maachan’s way of standing the heat is “to walk while splashing water”, because she saw her grandma splash water onto ground and it really worked.

-around 13:00, they talk about the day they went out for a meal. Maachan, Haruka, and Mizuki arrived an hour late. Maachan says Haruka has no sense of direction and depended only on her map without listening to Maa(she says “You can’t depend on a map!”). Then Mizuki sides with Haruka, Saying she will also depend on a map in that situation. After all, according to Maa, she was right.

-around 20:50, while talking about Hello Concert, Maachan says Sasaki Rikako is cute and a talented dancer. Mizuki agrees on it and says Sasaki is tall. They name other girls(Hamaura, Makino etc.) who have become taller, and then Maa says “Time flies!”.

This is my first time doing these things. And it really takes time!

If Eri was still in MM, what would Ma-chan call her?
