Blog Translation: Hayashi Runa (November 10th, 2020)

Otsukaresama desu! Mainly talking about my seniors. I'm Hayashi Runa.

Thanks for your hard work today as well.

I'm Hayashi Runa, a 4th generation member of Nogizaka46.

17 years old, second year HS student from Kanagawa Prefecture

It's Hayashi Runa, the blooming seven's teen.

Don't lose, don't lose heart, Hayashi Runa! Today is another day of hard work!
(makeruna, shogeruna, Hayashi Runa! kyou mo ichinichi ganbaruna!)

(pin-pon)

This is my 40th round of the blog relay.

It happened recently, (no, I don't want to use "recently" now, because of the context)

Usually there were a few wavy words after the predefined, ''This is my ○ round of the blog relay." and then I'd get right to the main point. Things like current circumstances, recent things, and so on...

But the last few times, or rather for a while, I think I've been going straight to the point.

And now I've remembered that this is actually the place to write about recent events.

Yes, that's right.

[Nogizaka skits ACT 2] began last night.

Starting from season 2, we will be working together with the 3rd gen.

Together with all of them, who are so encouraging, I'll do my best with all my might.

Here are a few things that happened when we had the recording for ACT 2.

As I told you in the last Nogiobi, she is my senior from the 3rd gen.

I mentioned her in my blog as "one of the senpais I'd like to talk to", and that's how I could get in touch with her, Yoshida Ayano Christie-san.

Nakamura Reno-san, who read my blog at that time contacted me on the occasion of my birthday.

And who I nominated as my oshimen, Ito Riria-san.

(Apparently she has 1 oshimen per generation)

I thought it was a good opportunity, I gave it a try, and on that day I successfully managed to talk with all of them!!

After I saw that everyone was playing "isse-no-se" together, I was wondering if it was the right timing to go and talk to them,

(Although 'isse-no-se' is the japanese version of the yell, "three, two, one, go" it's also a grupal game with numbers)

so I sent a message to Ayatie-san with "Can I talk with you now?" and she agreed, so I asked Sayaka to join us and we set off.

After that, together with Ayatie, Reno, Riria, Sayaka and I, we had the chance to play "isse-no-se" too, I was so happy!

Then, Ayatie-san whispered something to Riria-san, and then Riria-san told me "I like you!".

I'm glad to hear it! Lovely! The best thing in the world!

It was a lot of fun to talk with all of you.

I personally think that my proactive stats are growing.

Nogizaka Skits ACT 2, yoroshiku onegaishimasu!

...............................................................................

The other day, when we passed each other at work, the kind Ayatie-san gave me an artificial Sakura petal!

I protected it successfully.

[Nogizaka46 4th gen Live 2020]

It has been announced that we will be able to hold a 4th gen Live on December 6th(Sun).

We are really grateful to be able to perform with the 16 members.

In order for everyone to enjoy the live,

we are going to deliver so much enthusiasm that you'll be so exhausted that you'll be late for the next day, yoroshiku onegaishimasu!!

I will try my best with the help of the 4th generation' reliable teachers.

This is the costume for "Sekai de ichiban kodoku-na LOVER".

As I said above, Hayashi succeeded in communicating with the 3rd gens, so I tried to talk to them during rehearsal the day before and also on the day of the show. 

That's right, that's why I was able to get their signatures on their photos.

(see past blog's pic for more info)

While I was walking by on the day of the rehearsal, Riria-san approached me from behind.

All I could say was "G-good morning!"

That day everyone was very kind... and when Reno-san and Ayatie-san passed by, they said hello to me, and warmth permeated all my internal organs.

I was soaked to the bone, I felt like I was going to swell up.

I was so happy ☺︎

It was taken by Nao

It looks like I was trying to be a bird or something.

..................................................................................

Tomorrow is Myu-chan.

Thank you so much for your guidance and encouragement.

Adiós ! !

The other day at my Nogiobi I said, "I like curry with summer vegetables, but this year I haven't eaten any."

and turns out that my mother heard that, so she declared, "You will definitely have that curry."

She seemed to regret that she had forgotten it and cooked a curry with summer vegetables for me.

P.S. "shut up, say something, no way"

I've said a lot of times, just hearing her voice was soothing and cute.

Rika, otsukaresama, you were super cute ☺︎

yours sincerely.

かしこ
