Everything that Ishikawa requests is played out one after another in this one hour Ishikawa festival! There’s special count, revival of HPN, live from the graduation concert right after this!
Maki: Hello Morning
Kei: Graduation Special!
Maki: Today there is one person graduation from Morning Musume today. Who is the member that’s graduating?
Kei: Who is it?
Rika: Over here!
Maki/Kei: What is it?
Rika: It’s me!
Maki: What?
Rika: Ishikawa Rika! Yay!
Maki: Is that so? It was Rika?
*Sign: And she’s the main person…*
Rika: Wait a minute…
Kei: Sorry. We forgot.
Rika: Look at the pictures in the back.
Maki: Ah, aren’t they cute.
Rika: If you look at them, you should know right away right?!
Kei: Why is Hello Morning trying so hard today??
Maki: Today, everything that Rika wants to do we’ll try to do. Well, then, Rika-chan, what is first on today’s menu?
Rika: Right. Since today’s theme is me, I want to talk about my leading parts. I want to show the video that I made about my history. Please watch this first! Here you go!
Others: What? *Miki: That’s lonely*
Rika: A girl being born in order to become an idol came. With a smile that is as bright as sun and a singing voice that is like a canary. That person’s name is Ishikawa Rika. Her fate is…
*Title: Legend of the laughable troubles: Ishikawa Rika*
Rika: Rika was born in 1985, in Kanagawa prefecture. *Others: So cute!!* Both with wit and beauty, and being called a wonder child genius, during her elementary school days, she would turn the heads of anybody. ????????????? [I not sure what she is saying except about showing something off]. Surely, God didn’t make a poor person. After that, Rika’s life changed great as she was able to do something. *Sign: After that, her life approached a turning point*
*Title: Legend of the laughable troubles: Steps to becoming an idol*
Rika: When Rika was a middle school student, she joined the tennis club and became the tennis captain. But in one step she stopped tennis for something else. And it was… Morning Musume. She thought if I got into Morning Musume, I would for sure be big ?? [I can’t make it out what she says] than right now. Thinking that, she entered the 4th audition. With a pretty voice like an angel, of course, she would pass the audition. She passed the first big step of becoming an idol. And at that concert, on the big stage at Budokan, with her first introduction: “Yossha~! I’m, from Kanagawa prefecture, 15 year old Ishikawa Rika! Even with thinking about difficult things/thoughts, I'll do my best and look forward to things ahead. Important in believing in herself and conveying her thoughts, Rika’s idol life starts. Debut song, Happy Summer Wedding, in becoming a member, the young and beautiful Rika changed.
*Title: Lengend of the laughable troubles: To Japan’s top idol*
Rika: “Yossho! Morning!!” And then Hello Morning debut!
Maki: “Now to introduce the new members!”
Rika: “New member, Ishikawa Rika. I’ll try my best to smile!”
Rika: The first meeting is perfect! Surely this is an idol in the making! And the guest for that day was Isono Kiriko. With the older members in front of them, the anxiety of the new members?
Kiriko: How many of you are there?
Older Members: 11
Kiriko: You are the 4 new members? Do you have any questions? Ask a question! You seem to have some interest in me. Go ahead.
Rika: Umm… isn’t it tiring talking like that?
Rika: Somehow her first question was funny. Moreover, this bold statement is a premonition of her becoming a big idol.
*Sign: Center position in The Peace*
Rika: And then, she became the first 4th gen. member to be the center in The Peace. And, of course again, there was a big fever in Japan of Rika-chan. Even until now, Ishikawa Rika is Morning Musume’s, no, the entertainment world’s leading idol.
*Sign: Happy!*
Others: Wait a minute! Wait!! What the!! Ishikawa!!
Maki: What is this crazy thing?! The suicidal VTR made this? [Umm… something like that. It’s kinda hard to pick up what she said in some parts with all the other noise going on in the background]
Kei: What did everyone think?
Yossi: She said something like I was born in order to become an idol, huh?
Rika: Yup, yup, yup.
Konno: She also said of course she passed...
Kei: What were your first impressions, those who entered the same time?
Maki: Aibon, Nono, Yossi…What did you feel/think?
Yossi: I don’t really remember. It’s really vague.
Rika: It is…
Yossi: Like a distant thing…
Rika: Isn’t that a little ??? [Gahh.. damn the laughing, I can’t make out what she says..;_;]
Maki: You guys were there when you all debuted, but we have a video from a person who knows Rika very well. Please watch.
Rika: Who?
Skit SegmentNarrator: In the skit corner, there have been lots of crazy characters. Ishikawa-san also played lots of characters.
Iida: It’s Ishikawa-san, right?
Rika: Ganguro [People who tan themselves dark and wear lots of makeup] Ishikawa.
Narrator: Ishikawa-san also had lots of unlucky characters. *Sign says same thing*
Rika: I am the wife, Ganko Tomeko. Hello, I’m Sachi Usuko.
Narrator: Actually, Ishikawa has a secret ambition, which is…
Rika: Up until now, I have been able to play many different characters. Many of those were female [and female type] characters, but I want to have a challenge of playing a male character. I really want to try a very enthusiastic [fired up] male character.
Narrator: A fired up male character? Now I get it, a fired up character is… Yes, Ganko Ittetsu! Ishikawa-san, who usually is the wife, is now going to try the challenge of playing Ganko Ittetsu!
Hello Moni. Theater: The Ganko family – Ishikawa Graduation Special-
