Several Sayu-related articles have made it into yahoo headlines the past few weeks, even that somewhat overly dramatic Sayu Densetsu article lol. It looks like lots of people are finally coming out as/catching up to the Sayuwotas recently , I love it :yahoo: Perfect timing too since UF has pretty much handed the variety baton to Momochi and with Sayu focusing on Morning Musume as Leader, it's about as good time as any to officially start debunking her narcissist chara and revealing more of her earnest, hardworking professional side to the non-fans public. In the past Sayu always complained whenever anyone calls out her chara on variety shows and it's always entertaining to watch but this time I hope she just rolls with it Another weekend with not much to do so tried translating some small snippets fromAn article by some new reporter from Nikkan SportsQuoteMorning Musume。 Michishige's Pro mentality and attentivenessI was taken by surprise when collecting data about Morning Musume。's Michishige Sayumi(23)Since February the 1st, I was the reporter put in charge of the public entertainment section and my first assignment was to cover an event which Michishige attendedUp until then my knowledge of celebrities was limited to what I know from television shows or newspaper articles. In that context, speaking of Michishige... my impression of her was that she's the one that constantly says she's 「The world's number one cutest Idol」 and always singing her own praise in any comments about anything. Though it was all on-screen, her image of being impudent is strong even towards seniors in show business. To be honest, it doesn't leave me with a favorable impression.However, when I was covering her event personally, her image is completely different. Before the event begins she said 「I look forward to working with you 」 to the staffs many times over while bowing deeply. During the photographing sessions, no matter how many times the cameramen demands any slight change in poses she always deals with them courteously without showing any hints of annoyance whatsoever. It was totally different from my initial impression of her, I could feel her pro mentality.When the television cameras start rolling, the self-praises comes flying out again of course but the moment the recording was over she shows concern for the staffs, approaches them and asks 「Was that alright?」Her self-praising, narcissist chara was perhaps only a mean to appeal herself and compete in the harsh world of show business. I think because she have a pro mentality and an attentiveness to others, as the leader of a large group like Morning Musume, she was able to pull them all together and unifying them.From now on as a public entertainment reporter, by covering many events and topics I would like to introduce another side of her that was hard to convey to the public up until now.Well that took you long enough Oriental Radio showQuote[video]http://www.dailymotion.com/video/xxpzn8_20130222-about-michisige-sayumi-by-oriental-rdio_music[/video]Since Michishige-san becomes leaderYou could always see how she tried her best from interviews and such, and then came the 1st place(oricon weekly) and I was like uooohHH!She gives me courageShe's like, the idol personification of the saying that in life, you don't "win" just because you won something once, nor do you "lose" because you lost something once.I think she's amazing and that's why my oshimen right now is Michishige-san。オリエンタルラジオ中田2013年2月22日オリエンタルラジオのオールナイトニッポンR full showhttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q4eT7n-SdHA#t=17m11s...and of course from the members themselves,Quick Japan Sayashi and KudouQuoteSayashi < Leader Michishige-san's influence is huge I think. It's because of Michishige-san having the "forward, let's go forward" mentality that all the members now naturally share that philosophy and fighting spirit. I feel that she is truly a great senpai. as an aside Kuduu also feels like Sayu's long black straight/twintail hair to be the definition of THE IDOL apparently ...and that's why she tries to set herself apart and stand out. Uhh yeah okay, that's great but ;__;

Morning Musume。Michishige Sayumi ■ 『Konya mo☆Usachan Peace』#331--edit--added youtube link13.2.25 道重さゆみhttp://video.fc2.com/en/content/20130226pSfgzN2m/?otag=1Michishige Densetsu official acknowledgement !!She first heard of it after a magazine interview when one of the staffs asked her about it. According to her most of it are basically true lolHaven't really seen any complete translation for this... maybe I'll give it a shot later but damn it's long :unsure: but mainly it's about her struggles finding her place in Momusu early on what with her timid attitude and her uhh .."unusual gift" for singing/dancing then immediately being overshadowed by a new member. It also highlights the importance of KonUsapi as a place where Sayu starts to shine on her own and somehow still continuing it for over 6 years as the single personality in it.She is really grateful to her fans for their intense support like helping with Yoshinoya's Sayudon promo and for keeping such a close attention to her that even without her mentioning it they would write such a touching article and spread it around the internet enough to gain some public attention. Continuing from her 11th year, from now on too she will strive to continue her own legend.Yes, please do Sayuhime :notworthy: lol she finally played balalaika on her radio sasuga KuroSayu
