Maimi brings the NaruChika tour to a close in her December 9th update “NaruChika File in Kagawaヽ(；▽；)ノ“. Full translation below.

Good morning
It’s Maimi

The ℃-ute and S/mileage NaruChika tour,
which started at Obihiro in October,

came to an end yesterday with the performance in Takamatsu(;_;)

The theme of this tour was “Enjoy a concert as close as possible”,

and we went to places we haven’t had a chance to until now and performed in live houses where we were close to everyone

When I first heard “You’ll be having the NaruChika tour“,

I was really, really happyヽ(；▽；)ノ

There are a lot of fans across the country we can’t meet even though they support us,

and it’s inexcusable that we aren’t able to go and meet them…

So this tour was decided

Each time and at every venue,
there were a lot of people who said things like

“We finally met”

and “It’s my first time“,

and once again it made me feel that they are people who are always cheering for us from afar like this,

and it made me really happy that I could meet them….。・゜・(ノД`)・゜・。

Be that as it may,

I think there are people who couldn’t come because of circumstances and people who couldn’t get into the venue,

so I want to work hard so that we can come again

There are still a lot of places we haven’t been able to go,

so I hope that we can have a “NaruChika PART 2” and we can visit those areas(>_<)

Anyhow
I’m grateful that I met a lot of people during this timeヽ(；▽；)ノ

And then, all of the locals,
those who came from afar,
those who cheered from afar…

Thank you so very much。・゜・(ノД`)・゜・。

Thanks to everyone, we were able to make it to the end

I’m also grateful to everyone in S/mileage, who we performed on this tour with

The cheerful and innocent S/mileage healed me every day( ´ ▽ ` )

During performances and promotional activities, at meals, travelling, and in the dressing room, we were always together,

so I feel like I was able to learn a lot more about each member, and that our hearts also became “as close as possible”

After the performance, all of S/mileage gave us letters

(1)

It was unexpected and really moving

I’m so happy~(T ^ T)

I was surprised while reading everyone’s messages, thinking
“Ah… This is how you think of me….。・゜・(ノД`)・゜・。”

I have something I want to say to each of them, so I’ll write them back

Everyone in S/mileage is so, so cute I can’t stand it

Thank you so much…>_<…

Ah! That’s right
Speaking of Kagawa, it’s famous for its udon…

The NaruChika concert began with “Dance de Bakoon!” this time

In other words… It’s thato(^_-)O

There’s part of the lyrics that goes

♪~I’ll eat udon on the way home, tomorrow is waiting~♪

It’s related to that part(￣▽￣)

On top of the udon we ate between performances,

we ate udon-maki on the way home(o^^o)

It was delicious＼(^o^)／

Lastly, I’ll attach some pictures of my memories from the NaruChika tour…

In the tent for the talk & handshake event in Ehime,

I played “yubisuma” with Nacky, Mai,
and S/mileage’s Nakanishi Kana-chan and Takeuchi Akari-chanlol

By the way, the loser was Mai-chan

As the punishment,

she had to appear by walking stylishly and keep the reason a secret(￣▽￣)

A poster on the door of the venue yesterday

It’s moving*\(^o^)/*
