Maimi congratulates everyone’s honey on reaching 2-0 and continues to get revved up for Budokan in her November 7th update “Congrats on adulthood(// ∇//)“. Full translation below.

Good morning
It’s Maimi

Today is Morning Musume。’14’s Iikubo Haruna-chan’s 20th birthday

Iikubo-chan
Congraaaats

I always feel like Iikubo-chan is a girl who is always attending to those around her~

Iikubo-chan’s charm is how she’s easy to talk to and can become friends with anyone~( ´ ▽ ` )ノ

After Michishige Sayumi-san graduates,
Iikubo-chan will become the oldest member of Morning Musume。’14…

I think she’ll face a variety of difficulties, but I hope she has a wonderful year~

Once again, Iikubo-chan, congratulations on becoming an adult

 

And then,
yesterday we had rehearsal for ℃-ute’s special concert at Budokan on November 11th

I will work hard to commit everything to muscle memory and so that we can put on an impressive performance for everyone(o^^o)

After rehearsal,
I went out to eat with Nakajima Saki-chan and Suzuki Airi-chan~

The cheese hamburger was really, really delicious~~♪( ´θ｀)ノ

Nacky gave me a bite of her steak,
and it was also really delicious…

I ate so much I thought my stomach was going to burst(//∇//)

Thank you for the meal

 

Afterwards,
I appeared with Nacky, Okai Chisato-chan, and Hagiwara Mai-chan on the Nico Nico Namahousou show “Nishikawa Takanori no Ienomi“

Everyone who checked it out, everyone who cheered for us, thank you

I read the comments with your impressions

On the program there was a life planning corner which covered marriage, child birth, and death

Ever since I was young, my ideal path was to meet someone around 24, 25-years-old,
and get married when I’m around 27, 28-years-old…

 

When I think about it, that’s less than 3 years…Σ(￣。￣ノ)ノ

Did I make everyone nervous and think “Eh…… That means, 3 years later…”??

 

Even if the actual results are different,

my number one feeling is that I want to continue doing this job I’ve devoted my life to until I’m satisfied!

And I don’t want to betray all of the fans who have supported me up to now

Because I’ve been able to come this far thanks to everyone…

Nevertheless, sorry for making you nervous

 

It’s okay
℃-ute still has a long time to go( *｀・∀・´)

I want to continue to pay back the lots of love we’ve received with lots of love

Alright
The weather is nice and feels good today~( ´ ▽ ` )

How is it where everyone lives??( ´ ▽ ` )

Let’s have a wonderful day today

Until tomorrow’s update~
