Maimi promotes ℃-ute’s latest music video and begins the preparations for Budokan in her November 6th update “Announcement~(o^^o)“. Full translation below.

Good afternoon
It’s Maimi

(1)

Have you already checked out the music video for our new single “THE FUTURE” on the YouTube program “Hello! Station”?

There are people who left comments with their impressions,

and “THE FUTURE” is a motivating song with the message

“There will come a time when you’ll completely forget the worries and questions you have right now

Therefore, push on to the future without fear(｀・∀・´)”

We used fireworks in the filming of the music video,
and the fireworks exploding behind us as we danced had a lot of impactΣ(￣。￣ノ)ノ

(2)

It was like watching fireworks at point-blank range,
and they were beautiful and spellbinding( ´ ▽ ` )ノ

We appear as people carrying worries and doubts and people who smash those things in the music video,

so those who haven’t checked it out yet, please be sure to do so

(3)

And then,

the new group “Country Girls” was also announced on “Hello! Station”

I think there are a lot of people who were surprised, but Berryz Koubou’s Tsugunaga Momoko-chan will participate in the group as the “playing manager”

I felt really lonely when Berryz Koubou’s suspension of activities next spring was announced,

but the fact that Momo will continue to be in Hello! Project after next spring makes me really happy,
and it’s really reassuring to have someone the same age as me

Momo will be tasked with bringing together the Hello! Project trainees and the participants in Morning Musume。’14’s audition as Country Girls’ playing manager,

so I hope that we can work together and help each other~

Their activities start next year,
and now I’m really looking forward to it

 

And then! I have one more happy announcement

Continuing from last year,
℃-ute will appear at “rockin’on presents COUNTDOWN JAPAN 14/15″(≧∇≦)

Yaaaayヽ(；▽；)ノ

I’m really happy
A lot of artists will be appearing,

so we’ll learn from them,
and then, we’ll give it our all so that their fans will learn about and become interested in ℃-ute(≧∇≦)

℃-ute will appear on December 29th, so I’ll be happy if those who have time attend

Aaalright

℃-ute’s rehearsal for the November 11th performance at Nippon Budokan finally started yesterday

Budokan’s stage is large, so we rehearse in a big studio(o^^o)

Since it’s large, we move around a lot during the songs
We’re continuously running around~(*^^*)

I imagined “We’ll be surrounded by everyone in team ℃-ute at the performance~…( ´ ▽ ` )“,

 

and I became happy(((o(*゜▽゜*)o)))

I’ll be moved again when we stand on stage~~( ´ ▽ ` )

I can’t wait to meet everyoneヽ(；▽；)ノ

But I’ll work hard at the rehearsals until then so that I can put on the best performance possible(￣^￣)ゞ

I hope as many people as possible participate(>_<)
And I’ll be happy if those who are unable to participate send your power to Budokan on November 11th

We want to give off so much power that it even reachs everyone far away too(≧∇≦)

We’ll do our best

Well then, let’s have a wonderful afternoon

Until tomorrow’s update~( ´ ▽ ` )ノ
