Maimi fully enjoys herself while in Niigata on the NaruChika tour in her March 25th GREE update “My brother’s birthday~♪( ´θ｀)ノ“. Full translation below.

Good morning
It’s Maimi

First

Today’s not really my older brother’s birthday(￣▽￣)
It’s the usual pun title m(._.)m

 

Alright

I woke up in Nagano this morning~♪( ´θ｀)ノ

We travelled from Niigata to Nagano yesterday(((o(*゜▽゜*)o)))

Once we arrived in Nagano,
something cold hit my face…

It was snow(　゜д゜)

While looking at the light snow, Suzuki Airi-chan and I were saying “The snow is fluttering~♪( ´θ｀)ノ”,

but in no time it was no longer fluttering,
but rather snowing intenselyΣ(￣。￣ノ)ノ

It’s still cold here(^-^)

But the weather is really nice today (o^^o)

…Probably…

…For now…

Yesterday in Niigata was amazing(；゜０゜)

It was raining, then stopped,
then the skies were clear,
then it hailed?,
then it snowed…

A~h♪( ´θ｀)ノ

I felt like I got to benefit from seeing something rare o(^▽^)o

We had a performance of “NaruChika 2015 ℃-ute” in Niigata

A loooot of locals participated and welcomed us(T ^ T)

Everyone was full of energy,
and I was really happy that a lot of people said “I listen to your radio show(^o^)/*” at the handshake event…>_<…

Thank you

The FM-PORT program “℃-ute Yajima Maimi no I My MeMaimi~” has continued for many years,

and it has filled me with affection towards Niigata…

I love Niigata

Several years ago I went to see a fireworks festival in Nagaoka with my mom in my private time (o^^o)

I researched what firework festivals would be happening on my day off,
and discovered the one in Nagaoka o(^▽^)o

It was fate(//∇//)

We arrived around 2:00PM and got a good seat,

and while waiting for the fireworks,
we sat on a sheet eating things we bought from the carts,
and the wind felt nice, so I dozed off under the parasol(^-^)

 

Our seats were so nice,
the fireworks filled my entire field of visionΣ(￣。￣ノ)ノ

I was excited and took video,
but my battery ran out during crucial finale, so I wasn’t able to film it…(;￣O￣)

But it was prettier seeing it with my own eyes, so it worked out in the end(//∇//)

After returning home,
I watched that video for days♪( ´θ｀)ノ

It was the most intense fireworks festival in my life(((o(*゜▽゜*)o)))

I want to go again

In addition,
I have a lot of memories of Niigata,
like when we came to Niigata on a fan club bus tour,

when we had concerts here,

and when we recorded FM-PORT programs here,

and I was able to make even more wonderful memories(≧∇≦)

Yesterday morning before the concert,
we hi-jacked FM-PORT,

and we appeared on a variety of programs

Everyone who listened to the live broadcasts, thank you

In addition,
the episode of “PORT Tasting Music” hosted by ℃-ute will air on April 4th,

and we’ll appear in the issue of the local magazine “WEEK!” that’s published in May,

so please be sure to check those out too

Ah! I was talking about the concert,
but I got completely off topic! lol

We were close to everyone in yesterday’s venue(((o(*゜▽゜*)o)))

We were so close, it was a little embarrassing(^◇^;)

But this closeness is one of the good things about the NaruChika concerts,

and I was really happy to get everyone’s encouragement directly(((o(*゜▽゜*)o)))

 

Speaking of “Happy“,

yesterday ex-Melon Kinenbi member Saitou Hitomi-san came to watch the concert。・゜・(ノД`)・゜・。

I was surprised…>_<…

She’s as reaaaaally kind and smells as nice as always( ´ ▽ ` )ノ Haha

(1)

Thank you so much

And then,
speaking of Niigata,

I have this image of it having a lot of delicious things

Yesterday I ate nothing but local specialties(^o^)/*lol

Yasuda yogurt

(2)

It was syrupy,

and it was the best after the performance(//∇//)

I also ate sasa dumplings,

and poppo-yaki…

I can never get it in Tokyo~ヽ(´o｀；

I’m really happy I could eat it

Also, also(((o(*゜▽゜*)o)))
As expected,
the white rice is delicious( ´ ▽ ` )ノ

The rice balls we ate on the way home were delicious too(^-^)

I ate a variety of things,
and everything was as delicious as can be(//∇//)

It was a really fun day with the Niigata concert I had always wanted

Everyone who participated,
everyone who couldn’t but still supported it, thank you so very much(^-^)

I hope that it was a fun day for everyone too

Alright
Today is the NaruChika concert in Nagano(((o(*゜▽゜*)o)))

My nose won’t stop running and I can’t stop sneezing today(・o・)

I want to avoid taking hay fever medicine as much as possible,
and I’ll only take it when I feel like “I can’t bear it today(・・;)”,

but I took some todayd(￣ ￣)

Everyone with hay fever, let’s enjoy today without losing to the pollen( ´ ▽ ` )ノ

Well then, until tomorrow’s update~(^o^)/*

Bye byeeeee

p.s.

Yesterday I wore the pink jersey I received from Shimizu Saki-chan~(*^^*)

Hehe

Thanks Sakicho~
