    I think the first part says, "I got Valentine's chocolate from Miion, Seichan and Hiiwatan." (Mukaichi Mion, Fukouka Seina and Hiwatashi Yui)

    Yeah, Google translate, Bing Translate and names .... not a good combination :)
    (just like gender, it's amazing how many times I've seen a woman addresses as 'he' in an automatic translation, but that of course must have to do with the structure of Japanese where a lot of information is inferred from context)

    I think that's because, as you said, in Japanese they often leave out pronouns completely. Same when they add -san to a name, it usually translates to "Mr. [Name]". I would be surprised if Google translate can tell whether a name is female or male, especially because at times it can be both

    Revisiting the subject of AKBingo! ep. 261.

    when rewatching it I realised that that episode was a blatant Team 4 push episode :) ... and that Miichan might just as well have been in the other team.
    Furthermore, did you notice she was constantly coaching her team members? like when Miki had to do her Muchaburi ... and had a total meltdown again (she really was a scaredy cat), foreshadowing the next episode with the Robot dog :)
    Miichan can even been seen holding Miki's hand and protesting it was too early/soon for Miki
    The only one of the three musketeers not featuring prominently was Kojimako ... but I guess that's the chance element in muchiburi dodgeball (the variety types manipulate those odds by being easier to hit, that of course the conundrum, to be successful ... you should not try to win at dodgeball, loosing is much better for your exposure :D )

    I really think they should have kept Team 4 together for just a little bit longer :/

    Ow, Miichan has been baking cookies for Valentine's .... I want some!

    Happy Valentine
    イベント毎はとにかく集まって食べることでお馴染みの私達。今年はわかちゃんお手製カレーをディナーにいただき、トリュフ、フルーツケーキ、クッキー作りました。自分たちで好きなだけ味見して、あとはお世話になった人に渡そうと思います。わか先生( @wakanogohan )いつもありがとう :) スペシャルゲストはかち子ちゃんでした♡

    Happy Valentine
    We were making these for family gathering events, and then we ate some anyway. This year, Waka-chan made home-made curry for dinner, then truffles, fruit cake and cookies. They taste really nice and I think I will give them to those who I really care about. Thank you very much Professor Waka (@wakanogohan) :) Special guest was Kachiko-chan ♡

    The photographer that did a 4 seasons portfolio with Miichan is featured by Sony at the Camera and Photo Imaging show

    RT春夏秋冬をテーマに優也くんに撮影してもらった写真が大画面で見れるチャンスです。世に出てない写真も続々...? 3月2日、3日、4日パシフィコ横浜に足を運んでくれたら嬉しいです!
    -----------------------
    It is a chance that the photograph that Yuya-kun photographed to the theme of the Rt Four Seasons is seen on a big screen. The photos that are not in the world...? March 2, 3, 4, I would be happy if you could visit Pacifico Yokohama! http://www.cpplus.jp

    Have I mentioned that he makes Miichan look absolutely fabulous?

    DW3VIAYVwAAlvf-.jpg

    White on white .... very, very nice shot

    And now I want to go to Yokohama on the 4th ... there was a mention by the photographer about a mystery guest on the 4th...
    And as I have an interest in photography (Nikon gear, not Sony, but who cares :) )...wouldn't it be great if it was Miichan ... and that on the 4th, which happens to be my birthday :)
    Then as icing on the cake a Team K show in Akihabara?
    A well, too late to book a flight and to late to apply for theatre tickets ... (if they've ever made that available for foreigners in the site)

    My beloved sister Miki-chan. She is the cutest thing when she eats delicious food. Therefore... It seems to Instagram up a lot of such images from now on. I think the photos I took will also be posted, so go and have a peek!
    -----------------------

    Funny how Miichan refers to Miki-chan as little sister, I guess for Micchan AKB gave her an extended family with a big sister, Takamina, and some little ones ;)
    (and of course lot's of friends)
    (btw, there were more pics in the link, but I guess I should post those in Miki-chan's thread, if I could find it ;) )

    I had no idea the Fukushima relief effort by AKB48 was still underway, but it evidently is:

    Miichan's twitter:

    ====================
    福島県 南相馬市で復興支援ライブをさせていただきました。5年振りのさくらホール...あの日と変わらず温かく迎え入れていただき本当にありがとうございました。AKB48として、この活動を通して出会えた皆さんの笑顔は私達の原動力です。これからもずっと、よろしくお願いします。
    ------------------------------------
    We played a reconstruction support live in Minamisoma city, Fukushima Prefecture. Sakura Hall in the past 5 years ... Thank you so much for having me warmly welcome you to that day. As AKB 48, the smiles of everyone we met through this activity is our driving force. Always thanking you in the future.
    ------------------------------------

    and some more from the Miichan facebook group (no, not that Miichan facebook group ;) )
    28471967_166835710635158_4564807515543437312_n.jpg 28660435_166835747301821_7377807272455438336_n.jpg 28795249_166835787301817_5609741052563947520_n.jpg 28471709_10156411101856614_1142465123256893440_n.jpg

    And there was a handshake event .....


    with a blatant plug for Nyannyan's clothing line ;)
    DXXSf8_VMAMrP6T.jpg

    and lastly there was the presentation of Naachan's photobook ( I guess with the same plug ... or else Miichan just really likes that sweater ;) )
    DXWZx6gU0AAixse.jpg DXWZx7GV4AA4_zX.jpg

    Note: the order of events might be reversed

    And the week started with Nyannyan and Miichan going shopping ....
    DXMbJL3VAAEyMfi.jpg DXMbJL1VAAAdGqR.jpg
    And ... then there was this ....
    DXPOLW6VwAAPklW.jpg
    I guess it's ok for Miichan to fondle Nyannyan's breast ...



    if it is a pillow :D

    だいぶ時期がずれてしまいましたが、25歳の生誕祭やってもらえることに。3月8日。明後日。チームK。今からドキドキ...伝えたいこと考えなきゃ!

    Google traslate:

    "Although the timing has deviated considerably, it is to be able to do the 25th birthday festival. March 8th. day after tomorrow. Team K. Doki Doki from now ... I have to think what I want to tell!"

    Mmmm....:cold:

    It's a bit strange, cause it's the day after Tano Yuka's birthday. It would make more sense for that to be Tano's birthday stage and for Miichan's to have been closer to her birthday... But I hope she still enjoys it nonetheless :)

    I'm sure she will ... being the centre, her alter ego is Shaku for a reason ;)
    (to be honest, I think she's got over/grew out of the need to be the center of attention)

    But yeah ... her birthday is 15 November ... it's almost a half year late :/, I guess her schedule and the theatre schedule just didn't line up.
    Still weird though

    And it's probably one of the last theatre performances with Miichan as captain as well :/

    I also think the same.
    Seeing her performance in Downtown with comedians with much more experience, (Matsumoto and Hamada) it shows that she has matured a lot.
    I see her comfortable in her role, gaining experience in a very difficult environment.

    Miichan had her, somewhat belated, birthday stage today ...
    =================
    一年に一回、私の味方ってこんなに居てくれるんだって目で見て、耳で聞いて、全身で感じられる時間。嬉しくて、楽しくて、どうしようかと思いました。。チームKメンバー(もちろん助っ人メンバーも)来てくれた皆さん、オンデマンドで観てくれた皆さんも!素敵な生誕祭をありがとうございました
    ------------------------------
    Once a year, I see it in my eyes, listen to me, I can feel the time with my whole body. I was so happy, so happy, I wondered what to do. Team K members (of course helper members also) came, everyone who saw us on demand! Thank you for a wonderful birthday festival
    ------------------------------


    Well, to be honest, Miichan has been on shows with Hamada Masatoshi for years now.
    as in:

    if the video does not show watch the video here

    And somehow she manages to hit it of with most of these comedians, of course with Bad Boys ... but also with Ninety-Nine
    e.g. part one of Yuko's Graduation tour where Miichan did her Gouriki Ayame impersonation.
    http://myaidol.net/2014/09/19/140412-mechaike-sp-yukos-graduation-tour/

    (it was just with the current AKBingo host the interaction wasn't stellar)

    It must be said, Hamada Masatoshi and Matsumoto Hitoshi are pretty dominant ... trying to upstage them ... not a good idea.

    Whoever ordered that Gyakuten Oujisama flower arrangement is pure genius and I want to send them a flower arrangement too. Easily one of the best I’ve seen in the theater!

    damn, I don't know why, but that's such a sexy picture .... if she wasn't my oshimen already I would make her my oshimen just for that reason right now :)
    (luckily I have had plenty of other reasons to do that already ;) )
