It's Takahashi Minami
I thought I should write about this,
so please let me write what I'm feeling now.
I'm sorry if it's hard to understand through text.
Members that have worked hard together as part of AKB48 for 6 years, 5 years time are (leaving) like this..
My chest tightens up.
I think all the fans are probably feeling the same way.
I think how our ways of thinking and how we feel about it are different.
Those who feel saddened, lonely.
Those who feel anger.
Those who will continue to support them after they leave.
I was felt lonely; saddened.
If it were a normal girl,
it might be just a normal thing.
But we are part of AKB48;
that truth won't change, nor can it change.
But working hard on stage, them working hard for 6 years, 5 years time until now is also the truth.
We are nakama* even if we are apart.
I will support these two who will walk out on a new path.
As captain, what can I do from them?
Even though I have no answer now,
I will walk on this path together with my nakama.*
TL Notes:
* - nakama is akin to a close work colleague
Good evening everyone
Good evening everyone.
Nacchan and Yonechan have graduated from AKB.
Nacchan talked about the Team A auditions when my audition, and was a really nice girl.
That's why I was really happy when we became together in Team B.
Since becoming Team B, there have been more chances to work together,
above anything else, Team B is what it is because Nacchan was there.
She always looked around, gave her opinion and got angry.*
There was also the fact that she was senior to everyone, so she led Team B together with Captain.
So it's a shocking truth to me.
At yesterday's double performance,**
there's this unit song called Locker Room Boy; (among other reasons) that song is a unit with Nacchan, so somehow the lyrics hit me then, and I was about to burst into tears.
But, remembering a Nacchan that smiled during anything, I was able to tell myself that this wasn't the place to let my tears fall.
It's saddening to think that I won't be able to perform with Nacchan anymore,
Nacchan is also moving forward, so I can't keep moping over it.
She may have left the place called AKB, but everyone in Team B loves Nacchan, and wants to support Nacchan!!
I am happy to have met Nacchan.
For always watching over the theater.
For being Team B's support.
I may have been in different teams than Yonechan,
but her love for AKB was alwyas conveyed to me.
I may not be able to do anything for Nacchan or Yonechan;
I may only be able to listen to their stories if something happens,
but push comes to shove, I want to be there for them.
Since I didn't know what to write, the blog update ended up late..
But my feelings now are to support them both.
Being nakama*** as well as rivals from now on;
this hasn't changed.
Please let me continue blogging in my own way.
TL Notes:
* - Kana means Nacchan got angry as someone watching out for you would
** - meaning there were two stage performances that day at the theater

It's been a while
I'm sorry for it being so late.
Hirajima Natsumi-chan of the same team.
As well as Yonezawa Rumi of the same generation.
About the fact that their leaving AKB and going their own ways,
Naturally, I'm quite saddened.
This is, of course, because they are both nakama* that have worked hard together with me for many years, as well as nakama* that have supported one another.**
No matter how much I think about it, no matter how many days pass, I think this lonely feeling won't fully disappear.
It must be the same as everyone (the readers), or so I believe.
Personaly, I will continue to support these two important nakama* from now on.
These are my never-changing feelings.
And as a team's captain,
being able to point out wrongs, being able to set an example;
to be able to do this, I will do my best everyday.
From now on, please watch over us.
Kashiwagi Yuki
