Maimi returns to Osaka for the start of the month and introduces ℃-ute’s recent inside joke in her February 1st update “Excuse me.“. Full translation below.

Good evening
It’s Maimi

February starts today~(o^^o)
The year is going by fast~

Today we had a serial event in Osaka,
and we actually came to Osaka the day before~♪( ´θ｀)ノ

When I think about it,
I started both months this year in Osaka…

When we arrived at Shin-Osaka station,
the snow had just started fluttering, and I was moved thinking “Wow Snow(((o(*゜▽゜*)o)))”ヽ(；▽；)ノ

The snow standing out in the light of the street light was so pretty it felt like I was going to be sucked in…

Yeah It was beautifulヽ(；▽；)ノ

We held 3 performances of the serial event in Osaka today

During the event, we talked about the phrase popular amongst the ℃-ute members recently, “Excuse me.”(^◇^;)lol

The other members said “Maimi-chan will explain it in her blog!(￣▽￣)”(;￣3￣)lol

I’ll take the opportunity to do so now…(￣▽￣)

The other day ℃-ute had a surprise party for Berryz Koubou, who will cease their activities on March 3rd,

and the theme of the comment video that we showed there was “newscaster”f^_^;)

We would move the comments from the staff and each group along as newscasters on the program,

and this was the beginning of our lineslol↓↓↓↓↓

Everyone, konbanuhhiii.
It’s time for the news.
We are your casters Yajima Maimi, Nakajima Saki, Suzuki Airi, Okai Chisato, and Maimai.

 

That was really funny to ℃-ute, so we had a hard time f^_^;)

Originally we decided to all have serious faces like newscasters,

but everyone was grinning…(^◇^;)

We took over 10 takes of that partσ(^_^;)lol

We weren’t able to do it in the end,
so we decided

“Well, next time we laugh, we’ll say ‘Excuse me.’ like newscasters ;^_^A”,

but since we laughed at it the first time we couldn’t stop,

so we were like “……Hehehe…… Ex… excuse…… Hahaha~(//ロ//) I can’t do it~(≧～≦)“,

and in the end we introduced the comments while grinning(^◇^;)lol

Suzuki Airi-chan also made a blooper reel,

but said “This will probably only be funny to us…(^◇^;)”, so she showed it to just us! lol

After that,
anytime someone says “Excuse me.” in the dressing room, everyone starts laughing(^◇^;)lol

Hahaha…(￣▽￣)
That’s the explanationlol m(__)m

 

And then, there was 1 other thing at the event

There was a fan who asked “If they released a Yajisuzu (Yajima and Suzuki) photobook what kind of cover would it have?”,

so after the performance we took pictures for candidates for the cover! lol

(1)

Hehe

Everyone, please pick up the Yajisuzu photobook if it’s released( ´ ▽ ` )ノlol

We performed our latest songs and nostalgic songs we haven’t performed in years at the event,

so the time felt like it flew by

Everyone who participated,
everyone who cheered for us even though they couldn’t, thank you so very much

Well then,
pictures of the strawberry daifuku we were given as treats,

and the Mitsuya yuzu cider I’ve been addicted to recently~(o^^o)

(2.3)

Well then, well then, it’s cold out, so please stay warm when you sleep

Good night
