Looking at everyone’s comments and drawings
gave me so much energy to start off my new year de-ariyasu-

Thank you! （*^Θ^*）

For students, a new semester is starting!!

I’m sure there are lots of people stressing out now
over tests and entrance exams

But remember that all nights will turn into dawn

So stay steady ☆ and work hard day by day!!

I’ll be supporting you （*｀・Θ・´*）

To everyone who are not students,
look for a tomorrow that is uniquely yours

A tomorrow that shines just a little brighter than today ☆

I had a meal and a long chat with friends,
a really enjoyable and normal day
and now I’m fully charged

I’ll work hard at work de-ariyasu （*｀・Θ・´*）

Ahh, by the way
everyone who’s turning 20 will have their coming-of-age ceremony soon, right?!

It’s a little early, but congrats~~~

I’ll be having my own coming-of-age ceremony next year too,
and I’m looking forward to that even now de-ariyasu

Furisode ♪ Furisode ♪

I’ve gotten lots of chances recently to dress in furisode at work,
and I wore a wonderful one for 3B too

But what colour and pattern of furisode should I wear for my coming-of-age ceremony?
I’m so excited thinking about it now!

Ah~ It’s just one more year, which will come soon enough (*’-’).:*:゜☆

Next year,
I’ll go through my coming-of-age ceremony to become a woman (both emotionally and physically)
I’ll start working hard now
so that I can look amazing on that day!

——

Notes:
1. A furisode is a style of kimono distinguishable by its long sleeves. Furisode are the most formal style of kimono worn by unmarried women in Japan.
2. Coming-of-age ceremonies in Japan marks of one’s coming-of-age, which reflects both the expanded rights but also increased responsibilities expected of new adults. Many women celebrate this day by wearing furisode.

Taka-san has been smiling so much yesterday that her face feels out of shape today! (laugh)

Yesterday, I went to meet up with an old friend!
We went to this grilled meat restaurant owned by my friend’s acquiantance, and we chatted lots with the staff and the restaurant chief. We had so much laughs and ate lots, and had a really happy time!
Connecting with people is just so important, and it gives me power (^-^)
Then, we went for karaoke, where we sang and danced and laughed, it was such a scene!
We had so much fun, so I was really reluctant to say goodbye, but I’m glad to know that the time spent apart didn’t spoil our friendship one bit (^-^)
So I will really treasure this once-in-a-lifetime outing!

I went to the Enoshima Shrine today, and just reached home (^-^)
I finally had the chance to do my shrine visit!
And I also met lots of people!
And we laughed together so much!
And my fortune for this year is “great blessings”!!

I was so happy as I walked along the road that I crashed into a utility pole! (laugh)
It was so painful and I was so embarrassed. I could only laugh at myself! (laugh)

In short, today was filled with laughter! (laugh)

I hope to spend tomorrow in smiles too!

Momota Kanako: Horse horse horse horse!

Year of the horse, year of the horse~ ヽ(´▽｀)/♪

Today, I’ve finally
escaped from the 2013 mood. (laugh)

I went for my first shrine visit this year, then to Granny’s place,
then to watch movies, and shopping with friends
My break was so full of activities ( ´艸｀)

I’ll dash through 2014 too-!!!

We had our first live of the year on the 4th!!
“Ore no Fujii 2014” was held at Maebashi Green Dome
It’s been a year since the last 3B live!!

Because all the different groups were gathered together,
even lessons were really exciting and fun ヽ(´▽｀)/

We got to watch part of the live too,
and it made us all ready and excited for our own turn (*゜▽゜*)

And I’m the type who gets really nervous before lives, which makes my throat super dry. So I always drink too much water and have to visit the bathroom right before showtime. (laugh)

And because I’ll always be in full costume by then, it’s always extra work for my stylists to help me undress 
Sorry, Kome-chan  (laugh)

Thanks to her, I always feel refreshed before showtime! (laugh)

After the live, Towa-chan from Takoyaki Rainbow came over to visit me,
and said this to me while in tears, “I really respect Kanako-chan, and I want to become a great center just like you!”!

That made me really happy!!
Even though I’m totally not that great 
It made me want to work even harder in the future, so I’ll need to buck up!!

So that the girl who respects me will never lose that feeling (^^)

Towa-chan is currently in 8th grade,
about the same age as myself when I first joined Momoclo, but I totally don’t remember anything about my 8th grade life. Oh well, I’ve always been this way (lol)

I’m sure she’ll become a better leader than me (´ω`)

In other news, I went jogging around the venue together with Ebichuu-chan before the show… (laugh)

I’m really happy to have got to talk to so many of them ( ´▽｀)

Oh. Congrats to Fujii-san on his wedding (。-∀-) 

Kawakami-san used to lie to me that Fujii-san’s wife is a foreigner 

I wish you happiness–!!!!!!

Goodnight (´ω`)☆

For this year… It’s a little late
but my family finally did our first shrine visit of the New Year 😉🎵

2 bows, 2 claps, 1 bow
I prayed for lots of things…
(Oh! For everyone too *^^*)
And drew my fortune ← Half-blessings

It’s really true that without doing all these
it doesn’t feel like the new year has started at all (laugh)

Now I feel refreshed (*・Θ-*)

But~
there’s just so many happy things, so many that they’re overflowing
that I wished to tell everyone about since long long ago- 😍❤

Actually~ For the 3B event “Ore no Fujii” on 4 January,
I formed up the unit “Tenkasu Trio” limited to just that concert
with Ebichuu’s Hinata and Syachihoko’s Chiyu.
We also performed an original song 😍🎵❤

The song’s name is
“Eien no Trinity” 🎵

It was a totally new experience for me,
so I was nervous, in a different way from when I’m with Momoclo,
like my heart was beating so hard that it would burst!!
It was tough (*Θ*;)

But it was great when we sang and it felt wonderful! 😍❤ ✨

Hinata and Chiyu also gave me lots of encouragement,
and it made me want to work even harder.
I hope that we can do this together again ✨✨

Someday, surely ☆ It’ll be great if it can happen! (*^^*)

And so,
that was our first live for the year ✋

To spend such an enjoyable time
with everyone in 3B,
and everyone who came down to Maebashi,
and everyone who watched the LV around Japan,
I was in the best spirits 🎵

Somehow…
I just feel that this year will be the best year yet ☆

Aiming higher than ever
I’ll need to work hard de-ariyasu

…So,
this is something that’s often done at the beginning of a year…

It’s the time
when everyone starts off something new, either with work or with their lives, right?

Let’s all work hard together- (*^Θ^*)

Ah! By the way, an extra story…

On our way home from our shrine visit,
I had my first shopping trip- 👣

But almost everything nice was sold out,
and only the leftover goods are still remaining in the stores ← I’m exaggerating slightly ^^;

But in that midst,
I managed to dig around and uncover some things,
and I bought a wallet, boots and muffler in the end-

Fufu! ♪
This year… I’ll show you girl power— ❤

Alright,
I don’t have any nice punchlines to end off this entry… (lol)

Please support me- 😉✋

Takagi Reni: Taka-san’s New Year!

Evening-wireless! (^-^)
This is Taka-san!

Everyone, how did you spend your New Year’s day?
For Taka-san- After ust, she went to pay respects to her ancestors at the family tomb!
We said our thanks for 2013, and prayed for progress in 2014 (^-^)
And then, I talked so much with the priest d(^_^o)
I told him lots about what we did and felt about GOUNN, and he listened patiently to me!
All the people at Mum’s temple seems to have watched Kouhaku too! And they told me that it was great-! (^-^)
So my New Year was soon filled with warm feelings!

Then, we went around to Granny’s house, then some relatives’ house for greetings ♪
It was fun to talk with everyone about stuff-!
And then and then, on our way home, we went to Donki for the first time this year! (laugh)

It was a super happy New Year’s day ☆
Ah!
I still need to draw my fortune!

I’ll come back to report on that, so please wait （≧∇≦）

——

Notes:
1. In the first sentence, Reni joined the words “good evening (konbanwa)” with “wireless (waiyaresu)” in a pun.
2. Donki refers to Don Quijote, a discount chain store that carries a wide range of products, from basic groceries to electronics to clothing. The store is well known in Japan and is often referred to by its shortened name Donki. Distinctly, Don Quijote tends to keep very late hours for Japanese retailing (to 3 or 5am, or even 24 hours) and it packs its goods from ceiling to floor in a distinct merchandising strategy encouraging the customer to “discover treasure” and possibly return to the store to find a remembered item.

きみゆき (Kimi yuki) – Going to you

Iriguchi no Nai Deguchi / Momoiro Clover Iriguchi no Nai Deguchi / Momoiro Clover Iriguchi no Nai Deguchi / Momoiro Clover
from Kimi yuki single + Iriguchi no nai deguchi album.

——

I’ll go to meet you…wherever you may be
Feelings drifting down endlessly
I’ll go to meet you…to the legend
Of pure white snow I drew out with you

Though you no longer take the local train along Sobu Line
My heart still races as I head to the crossing where the signal changes

Unable to hold back my racing hot heartbeat, I start running
A little more, just a little, to the promised place

I’ll go to meet you…wherever you may be
Feelings drifting down endlessly
Your season is too dazzling, the passion of pure white snow
A dream we can’t see alone is the miracle we arrived at

Your photo in the corner of the room smiles at me
Even though we’re apart, I’m not lonely
Because a time will come when it all melts

Even in the hours when I’m left alone and warm
Your voice rings from the bottom of my heart

Come to meet me! In this night
I can’t live without you
Your warmth which I hang on to
Is my ticket straight to you
One more layer of dreams, a melody of connected hearts

A future without footprints in my heart, carved with sparkle
I can’t imagine a world without you
Can we experience “destiny” together?

Come to meet me! In this night
I can’t live without you
Your warmth which I hang on to
Is my ticket straight to you
I’ll go to meet you…wherever you may be
Feelings drifting down endlessly
Your season is too dazzling, the passion of pure white snow
A dream we can’t see alone is the miracle we’re going to draw out

Cute yay yay cute
Cute yay yay cute
Cute family’s allies of justice
Animal warriors, Momoiro Animal Z!

Why animal warriors?
Why Animal Z?

Maybe because this is Tobu Zoo

Scatterbrained red hippo
Curry-loving yellow camel
Totally cute pink rabbit
Is it an animal? Green frog
It’s already a demon, purple demon

We won’t allow evil in this world
Because evil isn’t cute
Strong or weak, it’s ok!
As long as you’re cute, as long as you’re cute, anything is ok!

Cute yay yay cute

from Pinky Jones single.

Hah〜! 1234!
High! High! High! High! High! High! High!
Fight! Fight! Fight! Fight! Be tough!

(Peek inside me)
(Install and click)
(Swim inside me)
(Install and click)

Our eyes meet, and against my better judgement (so aloof)
I turn away, against conversation too (Non Non)
“You’re boring” (all smiles) is such a half-hearted line

“Don’t touch me so easily” (Heart throb!)
My true self is hidden in embarrassment (Pit-a-pat)

I’m not a bad person, you’re not too, right?
I know

The antagonistic self I was up till yesterday, Good-Bye
I can’t speak honestly
Even so, I always (really) want to live with you!

Even if the world, this world, is run by some unknown person’s desires
Even if emotions, my emotions, are some unknown person’s memories
I got to meet you (Complete!)
I want you to remember
With you, I can change the world (No! No! No!)
We need to be together

(Yes!)

(Peek inside me)
(Install and click)

The loneliness you sometimes show (thump thump)
Makes me sad as I gaze at your profile (bish bash)
From all the things (Don’t cry) which bring you sorrow

I’ll protect you from them, really (V V)
I hate being a girl who looks away (Sick! Sick!)

A maiden in love will explode with power!
A true winner!!!!

Don’t make me anxious, look only at me
It’ll be easier if I could just say that
Even so, you’re always (why?) being so cool

Even if the world, this world, comes to a day where it’ll end
Even if this self becomes a saviour
It’s alright (Oh! please)
I want you not to forget
Because you’re you, you can change the world (sometimes heart-throb!)
You’re essential

You being yourself is wonderful
There’s a fire in your eyes
Changing courage, unchanging strength is
Brave New World Oh, yeah!

“People, to the past you’ve thrown away
Don’t look back, look forward, the things precious to you are by your side
Don’t stop smiling, the light you’ve grabbed is shining hot, strong, bright”

I love you!
Even if the world, this world, is all my enemy
Just me, just me, look only at me with your heart’s eyes
I won’t cry (All right!)
You’ll stay beside me, right?
Without you, I can’t change the world (Serious! Really! I’m serious!)
I’ll go with you
(Yes!)

We’ll go
(Yes!)

We did the 3B live
at Maebashi Green Dome yesterday-!

To everyone who came,
and everyone who watched it on Live Viewing,
thank you (`・ω・´)

The first live for the new year (^^)
It was so much fun- 

Everyone in 3B singing “Nanairo no Stardust” together
was so fun too (*^ω^*)

A live with everyone in 3B
sure feels different from the usual lives, and that’s great (*^^*)

Aarin wished she could take lots of photos with more people-

We got to watch part of the live from the audience seats too

Everyone was so energetic
that we couldn’t stay calm ourselves-!

Aarin just felt that she had to keep dashing on!

So she’ll work hard! (*∩ω∩)

Ore no Fujii will be 7days next year!
Look forward to it~ (*゜∀゜*)

Oh, Momoka-
good job with Tenkasu Trio! ♪

It was great seeing a different side of Momoka- (^^)

Our New Year LIVE was “Ore no Fujii”! (laugh)
It’s been a whole year since the last 3B live-!

This year, everyone in 3B has powered up- （≧∇≦）
I love it when we all get crazy together!

This time, we had units which didn’t exist last year, and units limited to this live!
So- many of them ^ ^
I watched a little of the show, and it made me smile so much, and I somehow felt like a proud parent (laugh)

Our Ariyasu also took part in the Tenkasu Trio, with Kashiwagi-san from Ebichuu and Chiyu from Syachihoko. I watched the segment from backstage, and that made me feel like a proud parent too! (laugh)

I wish that we’ll not be limited to our own groups, so we can create more good things together. And in order to pull everyone closer together, I need to grow up more!

So I’ll work hard throughout this year too!
Look forward to 7DAYS of “Ore no Fujii” in 2015 *･゜ﾟ･*:

Thank you, everyone!
And congrats to Fujii-san’s marriage!
And and, congrats to everyone who graduated from 3B today (^-^)

From now on, 3B will be unstoppable!
