25th Yoyogi First Day!

Evening

Hello! Proejct 25th ANNIVERSARY CONCERT

Thank you very much for your support, at the first day🏅

Wondering how the content will go, Well, even though you didn't know, you still can and supported us…..🥺❤️‍🔥

Therefore, the cheers that errupted song after song, we were also fired up from that!!!

I get itttttt--!!! The intro of this song is crazy!!! and, while listening to the cheers, I also felt the same as the fans🥺❤️‍🔥

Shiroi TOKYO, Guruguru JUMP, Akai Fressia, continuing with these 3 songs, I also thought the content was crazy! lol That is, I also wanted to do it! lol

(BEYOOOOONDS sang these 3 songs✨️)

What I heard wasn't even half as exciting as it was……!

My Days For You Kioku no Meiro Go Girl ~Koi no Victory~ Onegai Miwaku no Target Kiss me Aishiteru

Uwa if I were to list them it would be all of them, I'm sorry I can't list them all,

All of the songs were too powerful, Beloved songs from my beloved seniors……😭🤍

Recently, we haven't gathered with all the groups at Hellocon in the winter and summer, opportunities to sing other groups songs has decreased!

I wonder if you enjoyed the festival……

Today's special Morning Musume '23 songs were,

Kimi no Toujou/Hello Pro Kenshuusei Koi no Jubaku/Berryz Koubou

We performed these 2 songs🏅

We challenged it with full enthusiasm!!!

Released on September 9th in 1999, "LOVE Machine",

We sang it on September 9th, 2023, everyone danced to it,

it felt really really warm and fuzzy🪩✨️

There was a wonderful whoa whoa yay yay!!!

Bringing my memory back to the beginning, Thank you very much for your support during the opening act💄

Sunset Summer Fever/L!PP

Its our 2nd time singing it on stage😳🤍

We were the opening act but, it felt like everyone was warmly looking over us, it was super fun!!!

I want to do it tomorrow too🤤 (we're not tomorrow, too bad)

Alright alright alright,

I'll also do my best at tomorrow's live!

Just about like a fan tomorrow, I'll be watching the seniors,

Just watching the rehearsals, I've already seen some great things, I'm excited

I'm honored to be in this space😌🏅

There is also a live viewing tomorrow! Please definitely watch!

Kimi no Kawari wa〜 Doko ni mo Iyashinai yo〜♪ Yumigeta Ako (23.09.09)

(T/N Title is lyrics from Kimi no Tojo)

Good evening🌝

I'm Yumigeta Ako🛑

Thank you very much for your comments yesterday！

After all、sunny was everyone's favourite weather〜！

It's really exciting when it's sunny on days you're hanging out with your friends right！

When I went shopping with my friends on sunny days、we often stopped by the park on our way home〜❗️

I always rode the swings 😀

Also today was our 1st day of performances at Yoyogi National Stadium First Gymnasium！

First of all I was shocked by the size of the venue during rehearsals。I knew it would be larger than Budokan but even knowing that I was like 「Huh？」…

I was so mega nervous that I think my face was serious the whoーle time 😂

On top of that I was so uptight in rehearsals that my pitch was completely off and my voice was much deeper than I hoped… So I practiced again before the performance to get it just right❤️

But then I was even more nervous for the actual show、like so nervous that my hands were actually shaking！

Everyone have your hands ever shaken from nerves？

I hadn't before so when my hands started shaking I panicked 笑lol

But Nonaka-san talked to me lots before the show！

She said 「This is a festival so enjoy it okay！」、which really calmed me down😀

And one of the songs that Morning Musume。'23 performed for the first time was、

「Kimi no Tojo」…。

I was so so grateful to be able sing the bridge of this special song。

I really worked hard to make the most of this rare chance👍

So I was particularly nervous before Kimi no Tojo、but before we performed it Oda-san and Yokoyama-san hugged me🥹‪

What did you think of 「Kimi no Tojo」？！

I really like this song、but since it's a Kenshuusei song you don't get the opportunity to perform it at regular concerts right！

The dance is cool too💃 I'm glad I got to do it！

Haaー today I was helped out constantly by everyone、but I also got to enjoy challenging lots of new things、so it was really fun❗️

I'm excited for tomorrow too！

I'll sleep well tonight！

⋆┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈⋆

Well then it's time for today's 【Gettaa Life】✨

Today we also performed 「HEAVY GATE」 「Koi no Jubaku」 「What is LOVE？」！

All of the song's lyrics were really different、and they're not songs that you can just smile the whole time forー！

But I don't have many variations for facial expressions so I was pretty worried about what I should do、

So I watched lots of Sakurai Rio-san's past LIVE footage…！

Sakurai-san's expressions are amazing✨

I love Sakurai-san's villainous expressions！

Do you know what I mean

When she raises one of her eyebrows…笑lol

Anyway！

I watched lots of videos of Sakurai-san ！

What did you think？😂

I worked really hard and was conscious of my expressions while performing so I hope I was able to convey some emotions！

I'm sure some people didn't notice my expressions yet so I'll keep working hard from here on too💪🔥

I Getted 「My first step on the road to mastering facial expressions」✨️

Maybe I should try asking Sakurai-san for some tips…？

That's all！This has been 【Gettaa Life】！

⋆┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈⋆

Today I ended up having loads of throat sweets because I was so nervous〜

They were plum throat sweets 🛑

I really like them because they have a sweet plum flavour！

I bought lots of different types the other day🛑

🛑🛑🛑🛑🛑🛑🛑🛑🛑🛑🛑🛑🛑🛑

Well then I'll see you tomorrow！

This has been YumiGettaa Ako！Good night🦖🦖🦖

Koi no Jubaku (“Love’s Spell”)

“Stop acting like you’re an adult, stop it with that earnest look on your face, I know for a fact that my friend likes you.”

OR: A girl decides to bow out gracefully and let her friend pursue their mutual crush only for their crush to mess everything up by confessing to her instead.

kokuhaku nante    shinaide yo tsukiai kata mo    shiranai kuse douyatte    watashi mamoru no yo konkyo mo nan mo nai kuse ni

Don’t you dare confess your love for me When you don’t know the first thing about going out How in the world are you going to “protect” me When you haven’t got a solid foundation or anything¹

otona buru no yamete majime kao mo yamete tomodachi ga kimi no koto suki da to    shitteru no yo    watashi

Stop acting like you’re an adult Stop it with that earnest face I know for a fact that My friend likes you

kyoushitsu ni wa    nani mo nai wa sonna tsuyoku    semaranaide onna doushi    yuujou tte konna koto de    hakanaku kudakeru no koi no jubaku

There’s nothing in this classroom Don’t pressure me so insistently Friendship between women Is easily broken over something like this Love’s spell

kokuhaku nante    shinaide yo onnagokoro mo    shiranai no ni ima nara    zenbu wasureru wa nanni mo iwazu    kaette yo

Don’t you dare confess to me Despite not knowing a thing about a girl’s heart If you stop now, we can still forget everything Don’t say another word and just go home

akirame kaketa no yuujou toru    tame yo zutto    zutto    suki datta nando datte    namida shita    watashi

I was ready to give up on my feelings for you So I could choose friendship over you I’ve always, always loved you I cried so many times over it

kyoushitsu ni wa    yuuhi ga sasu kimi to watashi    futari dake de tomodachi ni wa    nante iu no yappa koko de    unazukenai    aa koi no jubaku

The sun is setting in the classroom Just you and me together, alone What do I tell my friend? Right, there’s no way I can say yes here, ah Love’s spell

kyoushitsu ni wa    nani mo nai wa sonna tsuyoku    semaranaide onna doushi    yuujou tte konna koto de    hakanaku kudakeru no koi no jubaku

There’s nothing in this classroom Don’t pressure me so insistently Friendship between women Is easily broken over something like this Love’s spell

kyoushitsu ni wa    yuuhi ga sasu kimi to watashi    futari dake de tomodachi ni wa    nante iu no yappa koko de    unazukenai    aa koi no jubaku

The sun is setting in the classroom Just you and me together, alone What do I tell my friend? Right, there’s no way I can say yes here, ah Love’s spell

---

¹ One of the fancier Japanese euphemisms for guys when declaring their love is “I’ll protect you”, much like how in English you get statements like “I’ll always keep you safe” or “I’ll always be there for you”. The singer in this case is just like UGH YOU ARE A SCHOOLKID HOW DO YOU EVEN PLAN ON DOING THAT in a slightly hilarious and panicked attempt to cover up her feelings.

I’m your Ghost Soy tu fantasma

それは偶然の悪戯　君が隣に座った瞬間弾けて Sore wa guuzen no itazura kimi ga tonari ni suwatta shunkan hajikete Fue una broma accidental pero cuando te sentaste junto a mí, repentinamente estalló:

甘い香りに誘われた心無い僕が心を持った事 Amai kaori ni sasowareta kokoro nai boku ga kokoro o motta koto El yo que no tenía corazón y fue invitado por una dulce esencia consiguió un corazón

その寝顔が眩しくて消えてしまう Sono negao ga mabushikute kiete shimau Tu rostro dormido es deslumbrante y desaparece

脆く淡く届かない声をこんなにも熱くさせるのは--- Moroku awaku todokanai koe o konnani mo atsuku saseru no wa--- ¿Qué es lo que hace tan ardiente tu frágil y débil voz que no se puede alcanzar…?

「愛したい」だけど「奪いたい」だけど触れないんだ　その肌を “Aishitai” dakedo “ubaitai” dakedo sawarenain da sono hada o “Quiero amarte” pero “quiero robarte” pero no voy a tocar tu piel

僕なりのHold on　それだけじゃNo No No Boku nari no Hold on sore dake ja No No No Todo menos esperar a mí manera no no no

想いが腫れて還れないんだ　この列車は虚空行き Omoi ga harete kaerenain da kono ressha wa kokuu iki Mis sentimientos están aumentando y ya no puedo regresar, este tren va directo al vacío

片道切符を破り捨てたら Katamichi kippu o yaburisutetara Si tiras a la basura tu boleto,

リズム噛み合わないダンスを共に踊ろう Rizumu kami awanai dansu o tomo ni odorou Vamos a bailar juntos un baile que no encaje con el ritmo

背徳をモノにして叶えたい　叶えたい　恋を Haitoku o mono ni shite kanaetai kanaetai koi o Haciendo de la inmoralidad una cosa, quiero que el amor se vuelva realidad, que se vuelva realidad

離さない　離さない　Your Ghost Hanasanai hanasanai Your Ghost No dejes ir, no dejes ir a tu fantasma

出逢いとお別れはいつも突然　スリリングなドラマ Deai to owakare wa itsumo totsuzen suriringu na dorama Los encuentros y las despedidas siempre son repentinos, un drama emocionante

暖かい涙に濡れて　濡れて　燃えて蒸発のアロマ Atatakai namida ni nurete nurete moete jouhatsu no aroma Y mojarse, mojarse con lágrimas cálidas, es un aroma ardiente que se evapora

ひとつ悔いがあるとすればキミだ Hitotsu kui ga aru to sureba kimi da Si tengo un arrepentimiento, eres tú

ずっと背後で見守りたいんだ Zutto haigo de mimamoritain da Siempre protegiéndote detrás de escena

呪縛から解き放てるのは Jubaku kara tokihanateru no wa ¿Qué puede liberarme de esta maldición?

接吻(くちづけ)なのか　既に永遠の見えない駆け引き Kuchizuke nanoka sude ni eien no mienai kakehiki ¿Un beso? Ya es una táctica eternamente invisible

気が遠くなるほど　このカラダCold on Ki ga tooku naru hodo kono karada Cold on Mientras más distante me siento, más se enfría mi cuerpo

こんなに心は熱くなってキミを求めているのに Konnani kokoro wa atsuku natte kimi o motomete iru noni Incluso aunque mi corazón sea tan ardiente y te esté buscando

運命(さだめ)は悪戯　限りあるLast dance Sadame wa itazura kagiri aru Last dance El destino es una travesura que limita nuestro último baile

誰にも邪魔できない物語を綴ろう Dare ni mo jama dekinai monogatari o tsuzurou Vamos a deletrear una historia que nadie pueda interrumpir

キミの知らない場所で叶えたい　叶えたい　恋を Kimi no shiranai basho de kanaetai kanaetai koi o En un lugar que no conoces, quiero que el amor se vuelva realidad, que se vuelva realidad

離さない　離さない　Your Ghost Hanasanai hanasanai Your Ghost No dejes ir, no dejes ir a tu fantasma

死神になってキミを奪い去って Shinigami ni natte kimi o ubaisatte Convirtiéndome en un dios de la muerte y llevándote

このまま召されたいけど Kono mama mesaretai kedo Aunque quiero que me llamen justo así,

思い出だけは奪えないよ Omoide dake wa ubaenai yo No puedo tomar sólo tus recuerdos

降り頻る雨がNight Night Night Night Furishikiru ame ga Night Night Night Night La lluvia que cae incesante es la noche, noche, noche, noche

「愛したい」だけど「奪いたい」だけど触れないんだ　その肌を “Aishitai” dakedo “ubaitai” dakedo sawarenain da sono hada o “Quiero amarte” pero “quiero robarte” pero no voy a tocar tu piel

僕なりのHold on　それだけじゃNo No No Boku nari no Hold on sore dake ja No No No Todo menos esperar a mí manera no no no

想いが腫れて還れないんだ　この列車は虚空行き Omoi ga harete kaerenain da kono ressha wa kokuu iki Mis sentimientos están aumentando y ya no puedo regresar, este tren va directo al vacío

片道切符を破り捨てたら Katamichi kippu o yaburi sutetara Si tiras a la basura tu boleto,

[linked-hearts]

Q&A with Jetta

Let’s hear from our high-energy leader, Jetta!

♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡

Introduce yourself! Who are you and where are you from?

Hello! I’m Jetta and I’m from the Northeastern part of the United States.

When and how did you discover idols? How long have you been a fan, and why?

My childhood obsession was Dance Dance Revolution. As a young child I spent my summer days rhythmically stomping on a plastic pad to mostly Eurobeat music I couldn’t get enough of. Some songs featured in the game, though, were sung by J-pop acts; researching them eventually led me down a YouTube rabbit hole where I stumbled upon the first idol song I had ever heard: Berryz Koubou’s Koi no Jubaku. Being a nine-year-old at the time, my interest was immediately piqued. Here were girls my age (unlike the older teenage stars popular at the time like Hannah Montana and the Jonas Brothers) singing about the problems I was facing--the longing of young love and frustration of it being unrequited during a time when childhood crushes shaped identity. I felt myself represented in a way that other media hadn’t; the catchy tune and dramatic dance were kick-ass, too. Twelve years later, I’m still a fan: although my perspective has changed from a child looking up to idols as inspirations to being an older fan appreciating the girls’ artistry and playing more of a cheering-on role. 

What is your favorite group? Your oshimen? Why?

It seems that every five years, the group that captures my heart shifts. From 2008-2013, it was Berryz Koubou: a group of powerful girls that represented the whimsy of youth and gave me the confidence to be myself as I discovered my identity as a young person. As I got older and turned fifteen, I was entranced more by the same-aged members Colorful Era Morning Musume (2013-2018), who gave me the motivation and strength to navigate my high school years as a stressed teen pushed into academic and musical competitions, tournaments, and performances that left me overworked and exhausted. Now, as a college student with more agency and less of an emotional reliance on idols, I’m more in the position of an observer with support to give; BEYOOOOONDS (2018-), a creative group that defines the notion of what it means to be a Hello! Project idol in the Reiwa era, is a little bit less relatable age-wise but ever-so-entertaining to watch.

What made you want to be a net idol? 

I love singing and dancing, but I hate being judged for my singing and dancing. I wouldn’t call myself a perfectionist, but performing in the US, something I have partaken in while growing up, is very anxiety-provoking which outweighs the enjoyment of using my voice. Standing up on a stage or behind a camera to sing for a competition, exhibition, or just friends to see is considered as a representation of your skills. The audience prepares to enjoy your act with the prerequisite that you are singing to show off your talent rather than solely to enjoying yourself and others while in the spotlight. I grew up singing solo in musicals, in choirs, and at town sports games, but eventually developed feelings of inadequacy that became a detriment to myself and made me hate singing for fear of putting myself out there.

On the contrary, idols in Japan are appreciated more for their effort and continuous growth- underdogs whose performances are meant to entertain regardless of how their voice sounds or how their body perfectly moves to the dance. Of course, good voices are a plus and are part of each idol’s toolbox of unique qualities- but being a skilled singer is not the requirement traded in to deserve to stand on a stage or receive views in a music video. As Tsunku once said to describe the magic of Hello! Project idols, in Linked♡Hearts I get to experience being appreciated as a constant production rather than a finished product as close as I can in the States.

What are your goals in Linked♡Hearts?

I’m the leader of the group, so I have a larger amount of responsibilities. This is fine, and I’m okay with more tasks to do because I love trying new things! My goals have been to better my leadership skills, to learn audio mixing, to better my video production, and to become conversational in Japanese. So far, I’ve been hopeful about three of these (Kazumi, our mixer, has saved my butt with the audio mixing… thank you)!

What about Linked♡Hearts are you excited to try?

In addition to what I shared in the last paragraph, I’m excited about the chance to interact with people through social media and get the opportunity to be creative and turn my MV ideas into action!

What are some of your favorite YouTube channels?

Scott the Woz, bill wurtz, The Right Opinion, Swell Entertainment, きまぐれクックKimagure Cook, Safiya Nygaard, ImAllexx, ASMRSurge, Poofesure, Danny Gonzalez, PPOMODORI

How do you take your coffee?

Hot coffee: Venti blonde americano with no cream and 3 sugars

Iced coffee: Venti cold brew with no cream and 3 sugars

What did you eat for breakfast today?

A can of Monster Tea+Lemonade

How do you like your eggs?

Scrambled! With a splash of water instead of a splash of milk.

Which planet in the solar system would you visit? (if scientifically possible, of course)

On a student’s budget? Earth!

When Momochi was younger, her singing always sounded like she had a stuffed up nose and could only breathe through her mouth. xD It really sounds like that in Koi no Jubaku!

Enjoy, and please don’t repost without credit!

Yesterday, we did a performance Of the live tour in Niigata!!

It was a super exciting performance!

In the first performance, the girls cheering was Louder than the boys!!

It seemed like everyone was having fun, So it made me have fun, too!

Thank you very much for being so excited~

Just, I was in charge of the MC, So I was nervous... lolol

The hairstyle Was really rare for me,

I tried doing a half up style~!!!

How is it???!!

I've been thinking recently that I want to try various types of hairstyles, so I did this!!

Niigata, huh~ since there's rice, I bought rice as a souvenir lolol I want to cook it and eat it soon!

Speaking of food! I talked about the in the MC too,

The top three things that go with white rice,

Everyone, what do you think they are??

For Tsubaki, the number one is meat after all!
