Maimi gets into the Christmas spirit and observes the changing landscape at the Hello! Project concert rehearsals in her December 24th update “Christmas Eve~“. Full translation below.

Good evening
It’s Maimi

Right now all the Santas are busy, huh~( ´ ▽ ` )

Just thinking about it makes me warm and fuzzy~

I bet all the children are going to be really delighted when they wake up tomorrow morning…

I would get excited when I was little(//∇//)

I was told “Santa won’t come anymore when you become an adult“,

and he really stopped coming( ^ω^ )

But I love this heart-warming atmosphere

Today I had a recording for the FM-PORT program “℃-ute Yajima Maimi no I My MeMaimi~”

It was my last recording of the year

I laughed a lot at the messages from everyone today

Everyone has a lot of stories~( ´ ▽ ` )

I always look forward to the recording days~(^o^)/*

There’s only 1 broadcast left in this year

This year’s final broadcast is Friday, the day after tomorrow, at 10:00PM,
so I’ll be happy if you listen to it

 

I’ll share my gratitude to everyone who supported and listened to the show this year again after the broadcast

All of the radio staff, thank you for everything this year
Even though I’m like this(^◇^;)
Let’s continue to work together next year

After the recording,

I seriously sang and danced at the Hello! Project rehearsal~(^o^)/*

I was drenched with sweatσ(^_^;)

Dancing really uses a variety of muscles

My legs are going to be sore(　゜д゜)

But it’s really fun moving my body with all my might

Even though it’s tiring, I enjoy it(((o(*゜▽゜*)o)))

As can be figured out from the titles of this tour,
“DANCE MODE!” and “HAPPY EMOTION!”,

we’re actively dancing(^o^)/*

The concerts start on January 2nd at Nakano Sunplaza,
so please be sure to come and hang out

I’m rehearsing with the new members who joined Hello! Project,

so it’s fun discovering things about them each day

The rest of us will do our best without losing to the power of the young girls(((o(*゜▽゜*)o)))

Today I took a picture with Kumai-chan

Since Berryz Koubou will suspend their activities next March, this is the last time I’ll be able to have a Hello! Project concert rehearsal with them~……

Watching Berryz Koubou do funny things, I thought

“That’s right~ I’m not going to be able to see things like this anymore(´・_・`)”, and it’s gradually started to feel real.

I want to enjoy my last Hello! Project concerts standing on stage with Berryz Koubou with all my might(≧～≦)

Today I’ll attach pictures I took with Berryz…

A picture we took during the Satoyama & Satoumi events~

And then, with Sugaya Risako-chan (left) and Natsuyaki Miyabi-chan (right)~♪( ´θ｀)ノ

Once again I felt
“I love Berryz Koubouヽ(；▽；)ノ”

Now then, now then,
I feel like I’ll sleep soundly tonight♪( ´θ｀)ノ

I hope there’s a present waiting for me when I wake up Just kidding…

Everyone, please have wonderful dreams this Christmas Eve

Good night

Everyone who checked out Radio Kansai’s
“Homeland Dome presents ℃-ute Yajima Maimi no Maimi~ Xmas!” today, thank you

I had a really fun time at the public recording with Miyazaki Rio-chan and Yagi Saki-chan from Lovelys!!!!

I hope we can work together again some day~
