Maimi and the members perform at “MUSIC JAPAN” and she receives some early birthday wishes in her February 4th update “Last teensΣ(・□・；)“. Full translation below.

Good morning
It’s Maimi

(1)

Yesterday we had a public recording for NHK’s “MUSIC JAPAN”,

and to everyone who cheered for us at the venue,
everyone who cheered for us in the comments,
and everyone who cheered for us in their hearts,

thank you so very much

I’m always nervous at recordings for “MUSIC JAPAN”,

and amongst all the artists who appeared at the recording yesterday,

℃-ute was the top batter

Therefore, I thought I’d be more nervous than ever……

But they played “Tokkaiko Junjou” when they were announcing the artists before our appearance ,

and all of the audience chanted “Oi! Oi!” really loudヽ(；▽；)ノ

Everyone’s cheering made me happy,

and I was able to enjoy it as if it were a real concert

In addition, I’m really, really grateful to the staff of “MUSIC JAPAN”,

because in addition to the debut of the new song coming out March 5th, “Love take it all”,

we also were able to perform “Kiss me Aishiteru”ヽ(；▽；)ノ

Being able to perform 2 songs…

I was really, really happy

In regards to “Love take it all”, it’s a really cool song

I think that we’ll get more chances to perform it and the other A-side,
“Kokoro no Sakebi wo Uta ni Shitemita”, from here on,

so I’m looking forward to a lot of people hearing them

I’ll announce when the on-air date gets closer, so please be sure to check it out(*^^*)

And then
Something happy happened yesterday

The staff at the program gave Nakajima Saki-chan, Hagiwara Mai-chan, and myself birthday presents(T ^ T)

I was surprised(T ^ T)

In addition,
all of the members of “Akaikouen”, who were also appearing, said “It’s a little early, but happy birthday“,

and Tsuno Maisa-san gave me a letter and present。・゜・(ノД`)・゜・。

Receiving presents from 2 people I didn’t expect really filled me with happiness( ´ ▽ ` )
I’m happy

Akaikouen came to ℃-ute’s Budoukan performance,

and we talked a little bit backstage at “COUNT DOWN JAPAN” last year…

Back then they also said “We support ℃-ute“…(T ^ T)

I’m rea~lly happy
I hope we can appear together again sometime

Soon we’ll each become a year older,

and today is Nacky’s last day as a teenager

Twenty years ago today, Nacky still hadn’t been born yet（´-`）.。oO（

What was I doing around that time??

At any rate, I’m happy I can spend the last day of Nacky’s teens with her

It’ll be wonderful
