The crew of Tsubaki received some valuable advise from Juice=Juice executive officer Commander Akari Uemura and Operations Officer Lieutenant-Commander Manaka Inaba prior to their upcoming Budokan missions. The senior officers shared their experiences with their kouhai unit and you cant help but notice how Runo seemed to be awestruck by the senior members of her favourite group's presence.   8)

on a more sombre note, Commanding Officer Capt Kanazawa will suspend her combat duties with her unit due to the resurgence of her chronic endometriosis. On behalf of the Fleet, we pray for Capt Kanazawa's full recovery and speedy return to active duty.  :(

Team JUICE blogs about their Captain's break from combat activities/missions:

https://sugoiyabai.wordpress.com/2021/09/16/juicejuice-on-the-announcement-of-kanazawa-tomokos-break/

Particularly heartwarming one was from Midshipman Matsunaga:

Quote
An announcement was just made about Kanazawa Tomoko-san taking a break from activities for the time being

While I’m worried about her, worrying about it won’t end it or anything

And Zoku Kachou Fuugestu will be starting!

I’ll carry the burden of being the Juice=Juice representative in Tsuki
For Kanazawa-san’s sake as well.

I’m sure all of you are worried about her too, but let’s graciously wait for her

Kanazawa-san, if you ever feel lonely

I’ll fly over to your place

Everyone, please rest assured! 👍🏻

Tomoko heard a knock on her door. Coming to it, she peered through the peephole but finding nobody outside.
Sighing, Tomoko headed back to her couch. A few steps from the door, and the door suddenly unlocks and in barges someone entering her apartment noisily

"CAPTAIIIIIINNNN!!!!"

Matsunaga Riai yelled at the top of her lungs, causing Tomoko to almost collapse of cardiac arrest from the shock. Riai enters politely apologizing "Yoroshiku Onegaishimasu, my favourite Captain"

Juice=Juice will deploy to perform at Yokohama Arena near Naval Station Yokosuka.

Some wotas online were floating speculations that this may be Captain Kanazawa's graduation concert, but nothing official of that sort have been confirmed by Up-Front. Let's hope not cos I'm not prepared to lose her at this point.

On a lighter note, here's MOMUSU's Commander Air Group Ishida Ayumi appearing as a guest performer reprising her dance replacement role in IjiDaki during the times Karin was out due to illness:

Ichika showed her seniors Rei and Yume how she reacted when she was falling in the air during her first HALO combat jump:








Also, she had a chance of talking in English with 1st LT Nonaka from the 12th fighter squadron of morning musume:

Passing the "baton" of Juice's strongest members:

2013: Corporal Uemura Akari lifts LCDR Natsuyaki and CAPT Shimizu while Juice=Juice deploys aboard Berryz Koubou (CGN-54), while then-LT Kanazawa watches on laughing.






2021: Midshipman Matsunaga Riai lifted CAPT Kanazawa, while CMDR Uemura watches on filming it.




The legacy of weird Osaka members continues... I'm waiting for Ichika to do the same to future CAPT Danbara while futuree LT Matsunaga photographs the whole thing. Then again, that might well not be possible given how physically well built Ruru is.

A few years into the future, Danbara Ruru enters the office space of a beloved senior officer:

RURU: Admiral, I don't think I can DO this! How did you, Kanazawa-san and Miyazaki-san managed with commanding Juice=Juice so well. What's your secret?

AKARI: Sit down, Captain. Listen to me. There is no such thing as a perfect leadership style. Ruru, you just have to be yourself, not force yourself to be someone you're not...the REAL you, that's what's important. Of course it helps if the members help you out a lot if you're nice to them..but then again, Tomoko's not ALWAYS nice, but she had her own unique style.

RURU: You're so well-liked by the members because of all those goofy and funny side you show to the members. So I should be like that?

AKARI: No, Baka!! You've always been the technically most gifted one of us, even at the level of Sayuki..why don't you just lead by example...you can be the inspiration your kouhais would push themselves to follow.

Ruru nodded with tears in her eyes still remembering her beloved senpai's graduation, before leaving the room. Akari though, suddenly recalls those goofy funny moments the younger have captured on her Instagram for posterity:

We get to see the 6th Gen (ie. the 3flowers) in action during the FC event held recently. there is definitely potential for improvement for this trio of newbies..they are not bad or anything, in fact, for newbies, they are pretty decent...they just need more polishing to reach JUICE's elite level because the basic vocal potential IS there, contrary to what haters may say. Risa, in particular, really surprised me because not only is she able to reach the other 2 ex-KSS level of vocal performance, at some points of these 2 songs, I feel she actually MAY grow up to be the best vocally among this trio. And yeah...they should not have attempted Magic of Love in retrospect because it will be out of their depth...but kudos to them for being brave enough to perform it. God, I REALLLY MISS SAYUKI!

Are Kore Shitai:




Magic of Love:



and of course, we wrap things up with an always-capable performance of Ai no Diving by senior officers Commander Uemura and Lieutenant Inoue




During Manaka/Uemuu's BD event, they were asked where the members were seated in a classroom if they are students. Aarii selected Tomoko as the sensei while Manaka puts Riai at the very back of the class at the corner, alluding to her troublemaker yankii aura...  :lol:

Today, the 3 new members of JUICE voluntarily did extra training together outside of their official work hours. They were surprised when acting Ensigns Kudo and Matsunaga turned up and taught them the finer arts of the performance of a special warfare operator.

From CORPORAL Arisawa's blog:

Quote
Hi, there!
How was your day?🥰
Thank you for your likes and comments.☺️
I started doing my own hair after I had become a H!P Kenshusei member and bought a curling iron.
It was about a year ago!!

I still burn my forehead occasionally.😂

Today, when we, the three new members, were practicing alone, Kudo-san and Matsunaga-san came over to see how we were doing.
They gave us tips and taught us patiently. 😭

When they showed us how to dance, even a just little movement looked sooo cool, as if they had been on the actual stage. I felt my whole body heat up.

Let me speak OUT LOUD.
 Yeeeeeeeeeeeee haw🔥

Thank you for reading all the way here.


Yume was surprised at how good Riai is as a trainer/teacher:

Quote
I haven't taught much so far, so today I was pretty excited, but ... I was happy because they (the new members) listened to me seriously ☺️
Please contact me even after it's over 💭

It's nice (* ´-` *)

And Riai is so good at teaching! !! !! I also learned a lot from Riai, so

"It's easy to get confused! It's like this!"

I did it while soaking in it ( laughs )

It ’s very difficult to explain again,

I thought our seniors were really amazing 💭





I mean...look at the camaraderie! This is the future of JUICE=JUICE! It is clear that these 5 had a strong desire to improve in order to keep up J=J's legacy and reputation as an elite unit, such that they even put in extra hours for further training (and YUMERIAI is there to teach them the ropes). Their dedication and commitment is reminiscient of the hardworking Original Five led by Yuka. I can only expect great things for this new era for Juice=Juice

Vice-Admiral(R) Yuka Miyazaki: "Juice = Juice new members are trying to protect the colour (characteristics, reputation) of the group, but feel free to do what you like!"

In an exclusive interview with LOGAL, the former JUICE Commanding Officer shares her thoughts as Captain of an elite unit and her anguish from the secret story at the time of Team's formation that she reveals now. The now-3 star reserve Admiral noticed the new members of her former unit were under a lot of pressure which they set themselves to live up to the high bar and standards her first generation have set as the young gen's predecessor, instead Yuka wanted their unique personalities to naturally shape and evolve the character of the group in the future and not to be too rigid in maintaining the tone and character her older gen has.

However, as they say, the mark of a truly great leader is that her legacy will still continue years into the future. We all noticed that Yuka's flexible intellect and affection have united a group with disjointed personalities in the initial stage, and you can see that the unified atmosphere is still alive even till this day when Tomoko takes over command of the unit. Juice = Juice may be changing, but I feel that the spirit of the first CO, Yuka, still remains at the root and core of Juice=Juice's values. In juice, this is characterised in the warmth with a sense of family while still being a skilled group that cares about and learns from each other every day.

I had a very vivid dream about Juice last night. In this dream, I was in the 3rd person looking at the whole situation as an outsider. Anyway, here goes…

Quote
Miyazaki Yuka entered the hallway of Special Warfare Command. As she was just about to enter the lift taking her to the 3rd floor of the building, she passed by an old photo of “TEAM JUICE PIONEER GENERATION” hung up on the adjacent wall titled “Special Warfare Hall of Fame”, hung just on top of a trophy cabinet full of unit and fleet commendation her first generation have amassed for so many years. For just that one brief moment, Miyazaki Yuka wished she could relive those times again with her Original Five..her beloved Original Five.

Upon reaching the 3rd floor, Yuka grabbed the handle of the door to Team Juice’s Dressing/Ready Room, half expecting the room to be empty.

“Miyazaki-san!! You’re here!!”

Yuka laughed girlishly after receiving a sudden big hug from Danbara Ruru from behind just as she was opening the door. The older one turned around and returned Ruru’s big warm hug. Just then, from inside the Ready Room, Inoue Rei stood straight and the 6th Generation instantly got up from their seats.

“Admiral on Deck!!” Rei announced as the shin members bowed profusely to their dai-sempai of Special Warfare. Yuka smirked after noticing that she had inadvertently interrupted their “Werewolf Game”, a pastime she had engaged with her own members when she was leader of the Team, while they waited for arrival on their mission stages. Oh, how time flies, but she is glad that the new members are continuing this legacy of their predecessors.

“Please...as you were, minna.” Yuka reciprocated with a short bow, smiling at the newcomers before turning to face Ruru and Rei, the most senior officers in the room. “Girls, I need to see your CO now”

Ruru and Rei exchanged confused looks at each other.

“I think the skipper is still at the galley, Admiral. Probably still engaged in a janken battle with YumeRiai for the last premium tako bento lunchbox” Rei chimed in.

Yuka’s eyes widened. “Seriously? You guys are STILL deciding bento allocation using janken?”

Ruru smiled widely as she led the way to the galley. “Well, you know Admiral. It’s the little old traditions that makes Juice=Juice a truly GREAT unit. And we have YOU to thank for that. Besides, Kanazawa-san and Uemura-san INSISTED we continued these traditions”

As they were entering the galley floor, Yuka heard a loud “YATTA!!” in that same beloved characteristic scream that she had come to miss so long ago. The sight of a jubilant Captain Uemura Akari pumping her fist in the air was certainly a welcome sight, after so long.

Uemu then raced forward to hug her former leader. “Why didn’t you text me you’re coming?”

“That’s the thing, Uemuu...its about Sayuki….”


It was at that very point that my alarm clock gave me a rude awakening.  :lol:

Then I cried when they showed a preview of Familia on today's Hello Station  :cry:

For the next DVD Magazine Vol 34, Team Juice went for a Forest Land Training Exercise to build its member's physical strength and build unity with Commander Uemura leading the way. A classic forest wargames with Green vs Red Teams format. Commodore Kanazawa served as observer/commentator in this one at SWHQ's Cafe. I guess its safe to assume Akari is confirmed to take over command of Juice=Juice after Tomoko's departure:

Tomoko and Akari shared an intimate moment tearing up as they recounted their Orimen memories together in this graduation memorial DVD #35 for Tomoko. Also, the team members baked a cake for their outgoing Captain:



I don't think I can stop my tears if I were to watch this DVD Mag.

Akari: "I'm ready to take over command, Tomoko"

Today is the last day of Tomoko's journey in her life in Hello Project Fleet:

From being a C-ute wota, the prodigal talent of Lieutenant Kanazawa is very much loved by her peers...:



Even though young Lieutenant-Commander Kanazawa turned out to be a tyrant...



She has grown to be undoubtedly loved by her subordinates as a Captain:

The Kanazawa Reign of J=J is officially over. Our immense gratitude to CAPT Kanazawa for the fine job she has done to pull the unit together and lead by example. With such a phenomenal performer gone, it will not be easy to fill her shoes, but Juice will continue to evolve just like it did after Commodore Miyazaki's departure.

We welcome Captain (Select) Uemura Akari who officially takes over as the 3rd Commanding Officer of Special Warfare Team Juice:

There is nothing else that needs to be said between these 2 senior orimen, because the tears that welled up in their eyes tells a deep and long history of love and affection for the group, and each other.








Kanazawa-san, you will not be forgotten!!   :cry: :cry:

After handing over the leadership, Tomoko wishes Akari good luck as Commanding Officer after pinning Uemu's new rank insignia of Captain on her dress sweaters



Our new Captain seems to be apprehensive about taking on this leadership role...but I'm sure she will learn and continue the legacy of a caring and excellent leadership of her predecessors!

With Tomoko's departure, the Transformation of Yafuzo has taken place:

Riai confesses about her problems with alcoholism:




Luckily for her Yume was always around to help her:




When YumeRiai is together, laughter and fun are aplenty..under the gentle eyes of their senior officers:



Although Tomoko is no longer the Captain of the team, Riai has pledged to be friends forever with her former CO:
