Aarin watched
“Konya mo nama de Sada Masashi” at home!

But, well-
She did watch part of it…

Before she fell asleep. (laugh)

Nooo-, the other 4 members will be angry at Aarin–. (laugh)

…Sorry for falling asleep 

Sada-san,
Thank you for standing in as Momoclo’s pink,
and wrapping a pink towel around your mike stand! 

And for adding pink into the 5-colored drawing (*∩ω∩)

Aarin was really happy!!

Thank you.

And to all the Mononofu,
and the Squishy-nofu who wore pink despite Aarin’s absence
Thank you! (`・ω・´)

Aarin heard from Mama that everyone cheered for Aarin as well ＼(^o^)／

Aarin wasshoi!!! (laugh)

And thank you to all the members
for helping to explain why pink couldn’t be there! (laugh)

Aarin will get to go soon too, just a little bit more
18! 18!

Notes:
1. Squishy-nofu or “puninofu” is a term used to describe Aarin fans.
2. Japanese artistes under the age of 18 are not allowed to work after a certain timing as they are considered children and are not to be overworked.

So—-, who was it?

Who played a prank on Oden-kun and Tamago-chan, on Aarin’s phone—!! (laugh)

Why did you do it–? (laugh)

Taking off Tamago-chan’s dress
And putting it on Oden-kun— (laugh)

Furu-chan, seriously! (laugh)

…You’re such a prankster!

Here are some off-shots from the filming of the opening movie at Kokuritsu-!

We got to leave our signatures on the roof of the “from Chubu” building ヾ(*・ω・*)ノ

Aarin was the first to sign, and she did a big one,
which created a whole storm of “Ehhh- Why did you sign there-?”! (laugh)

Well, maybe that “Danger, no climbing” sign
is a little too off-putting (laugh)

But Aarin felt that it was the best place for us- (laugh)

Well, in the end
everyone said that they were glad we chose this spot
so it’s all alright! (°▽°)

Will our next event
be the AE event-?

3days at Seibu Dome!

It was announced recently, without any of us noticing! (laugh)

That’s really awesome too! (`・ω・´)

3days? (laugh)

So happy—- ( *´ω`* )/

How will it turn out-?

Everyone going for AE,
look forward to seeing us- ＼(^o^)／

Aaaaah-, it was the best-!

The National Stadium dream!

To everyone who came-!
To everyone who watched the LiveViewing-!
To everyone who listened in at Teshiro Park-!

Thank you for all your support! 

Everyone, everyone, every—one!
Thank you! ヾ(*・ω・*)ノ

And then, to the Downtown Momoclo band
the Tokyo Chorus, Oonuki Hiroshi-san,
Tachiki Fumihiko-san,
Matsuzaki Shigeru-san,
Takamizawa Toshihiko-san,
and 3B Jr

Thank you!!

It was so cold, was everyone alright?

Haah-.
Aarin’s all snuggled up at home now (laugh)

To think that the lives at Kokuritsu happened just 2 days ago! (laugh)

Whenever Aarin closes her eyes, she can still vividly recall
the view she saw from the Olympic fire platform.

Yep, she was really happy.

She just couldn’t calm herself down, so she couldn’t speak well
during the last greeting of the concert! (laugh)

It was just an inexpressible feeling.

And the concert was still going on.

She knew that the last greeting was coming up,
but she totally didn’t plan on what to say. (laugh)

In the end, she didn’t know what to say
and was totally incoherent! ( *´ω`* )/

It was only after the live that she could really take a breath,
and wish that she had said this or that. (laugh)

She really wanted to say something better! (laugh)

But some emotions just wouldn’t surface until the concert was over
So her mind was blank and she couldn’t focus—. (laugh)

However, to hold a concert at the Kokuritsu before its renovation
And to have everyone gathered there

It was just the most enjoyable and happiest
2 days!

Aarin is so happy-!

This dream of a live at Kokuritsu
has become part of Momoclo’s history.

A piece of history
that we created with everyone who has supported us.

It’s the best happiness-!

And all the balloons which floated high into the sky during the concert!

Aarin saw those balloons as the dreams and hopes of the staff who prepared every single one

And all the Mononofu around the country

And us… flying into the Kokuritsu sky!

She’ll never forget it.

She hopes it’ll get edited into video soon ＼(^o^)／

And then, she’ll watch it endlessly!

Everyone, thank you so much (`・ω・´)

Sorry she totally rambled on today (°∀° )/

Moving on to the 2 days of summer at Nissan!
It’s time to start running again—!

Look forward to seeing a newly-revealed us!

Sorry for this late update!

Aarin is taking part
in the movie “Saint Seiya LEGEND OF SANCTUARY”
to be aired on 21 June
as the goddess of war Athena!

This is her first job as voice actress…

She’s really looking forward to everyone seeing this movie,
but she’s really nervous too-

…But the excitement still comes out top! (laugh)

Aarin did her best, in her own way!

Everyone, if you can
please make your way to the cinemas then! 

Athena-Aarin will be waiting for you! ///

Today’s the 3rd Anniversary of the Tohoku Disaster.

The only thing I can do
is to ensure that I “never forget this disaster”.

At 2:46pm today
we stopped lessons and observed a minute of silence.

I remember
how we observed a minute of silence on stage last year
for 11 March three years ago.

Time will continue to pass
and news about the disaster will continue to fade away

But I’ll never forget what happened on 11 March.

And then, as Sasaki Ayaka of Momoclo, the only thing I can do
is to “deliver smiles to everyone through song and dance”.

If our songs and dance
can bring even the slightest smile to everyone’s faces…
Deliver even the smallest bit of energy…

I will continue to put in every last bit of effort
to continue working hard.

When we visited Fukushima recently
Everyone there welcomed us with smiles, and it was wonderful!

Even after experiencing pain, everyone in Tohoku
were still so kind

I hope to continue to provide support to everyone
well into the future!

Two days ago!
We took part in the departure ceremony for Michinoku SL Galaxy!

Thank you (*^^*)

Did everyone watch it on Mezamashi-?

We travelled only a short distance, from Kamaishi Station to Toono Station,
but the SL journey was totally enjoyable
because of the interactions with the passengers! 

The SL’s steam whistle was so cool too- (*∩ω∩)

Thank you!

…But it was so cold. (laugh)

So so
Let’s continue the countdown today-! ＼(^o^)／

…Eh?! Eh———–?!

It’s just 5 more days…

To Kokuritsu?!?!

What’s with that?!

Pannacotta!! (laugh)

Notes:
1. In the original entry, Aarin wrote “Nante kotta”, which is translated to “What’s with that?!”. She followed it up with “Pannacotta”, referencing the title of live concert “Oshiiro Manhattan ~Nantekotta Pannacotta~”.

So cold——-!

It’s cold ((*ω*))

Shivers…! (laugh)

⑨ more days

Until Kokuritsu.

Ahh-, I’m so glad
I brought Kimo-chan the soft toy to the venue with me—.

I want to fall asleep
with soft toys
on cold days  

Ahh—-

Kimo-cha—-n

A photo taken during the recent “Gentou” event-!

Aarin performed “Rock'n Rouge”
dressed like this- ♪

She forgot to upload it earlier- (laugh)

So-, the countdown to Kokuritsu begins!

10 more days…until the dream of Kokuritsu!

Good evening- (*∩ω∩)

Today-
Aarin ate strawberries!

Aarin ate 2 packets by herself (*´艸`*)

They were delicious~

A burst of vitamins! ♪

But! 
There’s still more left!

Maybe she’ll have them during bathtime- (。-∀-)

Or maybe she’ll have them after bathtime- (。-∀-)

She will be using a new brand of shampoo today, which is exciting 

It smells really nice~ 

Because Aarin has long hair,
the fragrance lingers for a long time, and that’s great! ＼(^o^)／

But she’ll take care not to use too much!
