Watching my first instagram live:

"Can you speak English?"
"No, I am sorry. I can't speak English"

All with very little accent.

 

Here is her dance audition to join the No Way Man senbatsu.

"Best Hit Song Festival 2018" November 15 (Thur) According to 7 o'clock AKB 48 singing "NO WAY MAN" called the highest difficulty dance in group history! However, three people in the center were absent on that day! We held 48 group emergency dance auditions competing for the vacant center frame there! Whose hands are the centers? Best hit song festival"

Also translated waaaaay back on the day after release date by me in this thread lol. [It was even stolen by some twitter account, not this one though]

Mako's letter to Naachan in Naachan seitansai today. I am sure this will be translated by proper native English speaker later on so I am not even going to try to make English smooth.

EDIT: Yep, Okadananafans on twitter translated it now. Go and read that instead.

 

Here is the link, but it hard to read as it is spread out over a number of images. I like innosu's as it is all in one place.

Her instastory reminds us that mer fes 2018 is today 11/10 (first mentioned in this thread by innosu on Oct. 10)

[Shortcutting the 24 hour rule by just a little.]

This is a great headline:

AKB Mako Kojima, a smile that makes you realize the idol's magic

It's a story about her appearance with Renacchi for Team Surprise 3 Pachinko game.

"AKB48's "Kojimako" Kojima Mako (21) is a girl with a straight true feeling. The other day when she accompanied Kato Rena (21) at a press release for Pachinko's new model "Pachinko AKB 48-3 Proud Hill" press conference. She was asked about the costume worn in the poster shoot of the main visual and answered like this.

I really do not want to." Unlike Kato, I really do not want to show off, it's embarrassing. "

Laughter happened to the interview. That should be it. Kojima's costume was a box-shaped costume that imagined a robot.

Even if it is explained from the moderator that it is a costume for a supercomputer that is good at calculating, "I am not good at calculating, I am misplaced, why is it my robot?", Persistently subside. The complaining was in front of the "sponsors" who appointed themselves, so it's not surprising that the atmosphere of the venue will be subtle. However, it did not happen because Kojima was smiling all the time.

Finally, "I think that the robot figure is also the first and last, so I hope you enjoy it." While smiling with a smile. It was a newly felt event that the thing called an idol 's smile was a magical thing to change every kind of atmosphere and impression."

My feelings exactly.

Speaking about Namako... When they were together (in T4, etc), it almost seems to me that Naachan is the clingy one. But right now... (And the good pictures are in Mobame. Good pictures are always in the mobame, just not Mako mobame...)

Mako mentioned "some distance" in her letter to Naachan in seitansai, but, really, it looks to me that they seems to be closer than they were before lol. Really, 2016-2017 were the dark day of Namako. Very few pictures even though they were together a lot.

 

The fire prevention poster? If it's gravure poster I would be surprised lol.

 

She's national fire prevention poster model for financial year 2018 (Apr 2018 - Mar 2019, and yes Japan has different financial year than most countries). The text on poster is also 2018 fire prevention slogan (lit. forget anything? Wallet, phone, confirmation of fire). Around 200,000 were printed and distributed all over Japan. This is big deal. Every fire prevention poster model in the past go on to be big in Japan entertainment industry.

/Too lazy to find source, but I believe I typed the same thing here back in March lol
