Hi!
It’s Yuna.
Halloween was just yesterday, but today the city is already getting ready for Christmas!
I love Christmas, so I love this time of year!
When I was watching TV, there were a lot of Christmas commercials, which got me excited!
Also, I was listening to my Christmas playlist just before!
I wonder if Santa will visit this year.
Now then, let’s talk about the graduation concert!
I’m not great at putting things into words, but I hope it at least gets the gist of it. ☺︎
My beloved Shiraishi-san has graduated.
She was sparkling more than usual in her live concerts, and this was what I admired.
Seeing Shiraishi-san from behind, I want to be able to take on her legacy and continue to help make Nogizaka46 a stronger group.
Looking back, I am so happy to have stood on the same stage and performed the same songs as her.
I really love Shiraishi-san’s smile.
For some reason, I was put at ease when Shiraishi-san laughed.
In Shiraishi-san’s memorial magazine, she wrote that I was shy.
I was happy to know that Shiraishi-san was keeping an eye on me and that she saw this aspect of me.
From now on, I will enjoy myself for as long as I am able to be a part of Nogizaka46, and when things get tough or difficult, I’ll help to support each other.
I will cherish and pass on what Shiraishi-san has left behind with Nogizaka46.
And someday I will be able to show Shiraishi-san how much I’ve grown and do my best to show off the Nogizaka46 of the future!
I’m sad that my beloved Shiraishi-san is no longer nearby us, as I wanted to continue to watch her from behind for a longer time, but I will become stronger because of this.
Shiraishi-san,
Thank you very much for everything up until now.
I will work on my self-confidence more!
I hope you’ll be able to keep an eye on Nogizaka46 going forward.
I love you!
We all got to wear Shiraishi-san’s t-shirt during rehearsal!
It’s really cute so I’ll be wearing it a lot. ( ¨̮ )
Thanks for reading! See you next time.
