Maimi takes a trip to film a new DVD and comes down with a case of the hiccups in her October 9th update “Hiccup…( ；´д⊂)“. Full translation below.

Good evening
It’s Maimi

I rode a long distance bus for the first time after work yesterday, and I went to Kashima, Ibaraki

Actually,
today I was filming for a solo image DVD

I hadn’t ridden a bus like that before, so I was kind of excited

When I arrived at the hotel, I fell asleep immediately( ￣▽￣)っ

Filming started at sunrise today

The sunrise was really, really beautiful(;O;)

(1)
The sky looked like a painting

A~h
I’m really glad the weather was nice…(;O;)

 

Actually, this filming was really scheduled to be finished earlier,

but the effects of the typhoon were being felt on the scheduled day of filming, so it was suddenly postponed

We waited for an opportunity to film, but the weather report showed rain from the typhoon again a few days earlier…

 

But while thinking “Is it real(；´д⊂)?”, we instead got this weather

I was really glad
It was even hot

I’ve released a variety of solo DVDs up to this point,

but the theme this time is
“back to basics”

Recently, I’ve released a lot of DVDs with a lot of production and where I’ve stretched myself a little,

and those were chances to show everyone a new side of Yajima Maimi,

but this time they proposed “We’ve done a lot of things, so let’s try making a simple and natural DVD similar to your first two“

Therefore, this time the challenge was to present a true-to-life Yajima Maimi

It was a carefree filming under the clear sky

It was fun~

 

Midway through the filming, I couldn’t stop hiccuping, and in an unprecedented happening, they had to stop filming to wait for my hiccups to go away(lol)

I couldn’t stop for awhile, so it was a big problem(;￣ー￣A

They tried surprising me…
I tried holding my breath…
I tried drinking a lot of water…
I tried concentrating on using my mind…
I tried using the power of my diaphragm…

None of those had any effect, but my hiccups stopped as soon as I ate a prune

But it didn’t end there

Though they stopped once, I started hiccuping again a little later…

In the end,
I started and stopped hiccuping about 3 times…(;￣ー￣A

I wonder why(¨;) Really…(;A´▽｀A

During the interview, I talked about a variety of things like
today’s filming,
my releases up to now…,
the Budoukan concert,
what’s next, etc…

It’ll go on sale the end of October or the beginning of November, so please be sure to pick it up

Well then, last is a picture while at a restaurant during a break in the filming

I ate a variety of delicious things too~

Seafood~(*´∇｀*)

Once again I ate mackerel

Recently I’ve eaten nothing but mackerel,

so I was told “Your face is going to become a mackerel┓(￣∇￣;)┏”(lol)

But it’s because mackerel is delicious

I should eat the mackerel that arrived at my home from Hokkaido soon Happy(‘∇’)

It was a really fun day
Tomorrow will be fun too

Until then~
