Sorry for the randomness of this, but I just re-watched the Heart Ereki performance from the latest Janken Tournament and, well…aside from the fact that the song is apparently quite addictive for me, that Lovetan in senbatsu is adorable and that Rena is the prettiest and the outfit suits her a lot, I could once again realize that…

…Mayu’s aura is REALLY something else.

I’m used to see her more on front so probably due to that I could never feel this as clearly as I do now, but seriously, she stands out way more than members on the front.

I’ve watched the performance many times now and there are members I’m still yet to notice (I’m sure I couldn’t name all the senbatsu memebrs) because even though the camera takes them, I end up looking at Mayu in the back, even when like…just half of her face is visible.

Her aura is damn charismatic and captivating.

Of course I'd say I'll be bias with this, but I agree I know I wasn't alone ending up looking for her wherever she ends up dancing whether at the back or anywhere else, i guess my eyes are just fixed on her. Even at Koisuru Fortune Cookie *sorry I love you still Sasshi, blame the choreo they put MaYuki side by side on that

Remember the 2013.09.11 Team A stage performance where Mayu showed off her forehead for the first time on stage?

Not that I particularly like promoting other communities, but since conche aka SY Conchie (who you may remember as one who got a signed Mayuyu card recently: http://forum.jphip.com/index.php?topic=35465.msg1224560#msg1224560 ) asked me very kindly, I will promote, plus they are a Japanese community and went to the trouble of re-making their flyer in English:



I think this is the link to the community, I'm not a google+ member so won't join: https://plus.google.com/communities/117510818624824703033

I actually meant conche completely by chance when I was at Mayu's solo live and asking people for help with all the different confusing queues. By chance just the right person to ask as very friendly and excellent English! They were also promoting Mayu+ there in a typical Japanese fashion... with packs of tissue paper

I started the mystery solving after finished my meal!!


※謎解きゲーム中は、あまりにも夢中になりすぎて写真を一枚も撮っておりません。
ご了承下さい。
※I was so into the mystery solving game that I did not take any pictures.
Please understand.


あちらこちらを行ったり来たり必死に走り回り、アトラクションに乗っては我を忘れ
て騒ぎ、風男塾さんの握手会イベントの様子を遠くからガン見したり、謎が解けなく
て真剣に悩んだり、途中ヘアメイクの愛ちゃんが離脱したりと…
I went here and there and ran around frantically,
I was beside myself with fuss when riding on attractions,
I stared fixedly at Fudanjuku-san’s handshake event from far away,
I worried seriously when not being able to solve the mystery,
and my hair and make-up artist, Ai-chan, withdrew in the middle…

そんなこんなしている内に、なんと
And while I was doing all of that,


時 間 切 れ ＼(^o^)／
Time’s up ＼(^o^)／


嘘だ…

Thanks clubhappy as always for the timely translations! 

I always read on google translate first but nice to have these to properly understand 

Just going to comment on a couple of bits:

During the 1st performance, I was able to perform “Taiyou to sanpo”, which I love so much and could rank top within all my solo songs that I like, for the first time so I was very happy♪

Great taste Mayuyu! I think this is my favourite of her solo songs. I'm sad I didn't get to hear it - but I did get to hear "Twintail wa Mou Shinai" which is my 2nd favourite Mayuyu solo song and which she performed beautifully 

I threw color balls with Mayuyu’s autograph and messages! Did all of them reach you all safely~?? This time, I used the racket so that the balls could also get to everyone in the central block~ …but, It seemed that the situation didn’t change much whether I used the racket or threw the balls with my bare hand (laugh)

Since I haven't got to Mayuyu day on her write-up, this bit was pretty funny. There are like 3 or so sections at Omiya. The front sections she just threw balls to which was fine. The 2nd section is a bit further back on the ground floor and I think she was trying to use the badminton racket to hit the balls to this section. But she was so lame 

Sometimes she missed hitting the ball, one time she hit it and the ball flopped to the first row, and most other times it went less far than when she threw it. Ahhh, Mayuyu 

For the upper deck/balcony people, she used this bazooka which fired about 5 balls at once - this was successful in reaching the upper deck 

I'm also very grateful for Mayu for blogging about the support she received from fans this event - warms my heart, thanks Mayu!

Mayuyu features in this new Wonda Morning Shot CM:



I'd love for her to jump out of the back of a vending machine and hand me a can of Wonda
