Thanks to this if the video does not show watch the video here I found very rare Saku burikko (Mod edit: removed oversized GIF - file size of GIFs shouldn't be larger than 2 MB)
Oh, apparently the gif was too large. I didn't even think about it (must have been distracted by something ) For future visitors, the time stamp is 14:20. Enjoy
Endou Sakura had a photo shoot and interview with CanCam, which was published on their website this week. The interview is a good read, so I did an attempt to translate it. Enjoy! ----------------- Pure charming cuteness. ♡ Nogizaka46's 4th generation ace! A special Q&A with Miss Endou Sakura. 1. Please introduce yourself first! I am Endou Sakura, and I am a 3rd grade high school student from Aichi prefecture. Nice to meet you……! 2. What kind of personality do you have? Shy. Quiet. People around me tell me often I am quiet as well. 3. What is your favorite food? Dumplings and rice cookies. I love Japanese sweets! (When there are rice cookies during an event, I get MAX excited♡). Tea is essential to go with Japanese sweets. Japanese sweets are perfect when you are a little hungry. 4. What is your favorite color? Light colors. I love dark pink. 5. What kind of fashion do you like? Simple clothing. I am not the type to wear multiple layers of clothing, and there are many pieces of clothing that consist of one piece, such as a dress. 6. Sneakers or heels? Sneakers! I have never worn heels that often, and even wearing heels now make me walk like a penguin (laughs). 7. What did you buy recently? A small bag. 8. What item do you want to have now? A hand mirror. Since I entered the group, I try to properly look after my personal appearance, and in order to always be able to check that, I want a properly sized mirror. I am thinking of buying one, but I can’t afford one (laughs). 9. What do you do on a day off? I read. I love novels since middle school, and recently I am addicted to the works of Tsujimura Mizuki. 10. In your room, what’s your place to relax? I think the bed~. Because I also read in bed. 11. What’s your way to relax? Listening to music. I love Little Glee Monster, so I always listen to them. I became a fan during middle school when I heard the song “Suki Da” on a television drama! 12. What is your favorite movie? Ghibli movies. My favorite is “The Cat Returns”. I love cats to begin with, and the cats in the movie are cute! 13. Dogs or cats? Although I love cats, truth is that lately I am becoming more of a dog person. On a recent job, I had the opportunity to do a photo shoot with a dog, and since I never owned a dog I was anxious to touch it, but it went fine and the dog was very cute. Since then, I also started to love dogs. 14. If you had a week off, what would you do? I would go to my grandmothers house! I always went to my grandmothers house on a day off, so I want to stay there for a week. When I visit my grandmother, I also meet my cousins, so I want to stay there as long as possible. 15. What would you bring with you to a deserted island? A pillow! So I can sleep anywhere. 16. What is your motto? “Great effort always pays off.” 17. What’s your fetish? Feet! I love white feet, and the feet of Yakubo Mio-chan are the cutest.♡ When I touch Mio-chan’s feet, I’d say “your feet are cute~!” (laughs). 18. What’s the thing that excites you the most these days? Seimiya Rei-chan and Kakehashi Sayaka-san coming to visit me. I always wished for Rei to come over, and recently it finally came true. They didn’t stay to sleep, but we could talk a lot and it was fun. 19. What do you want to do in the summer? I want to watch fireworks with my friends in the park! 20. Who do you respect? My older brother. We are 3 years apart, but he is very different than me and is a very hardworking person. He works hard at his studies and sports as well, which I respect. 21. What is the reason for entering Nogizaka46? First and foremost, because I wanted to change myself. Because I loved Nogizaka46 from the beginning, I watched a lot of television and magazines featuring all the members. Because I wasn’t really socially confident before and had a introverted character, I did audition with the hope to “become like them”. 22. What surprised you about yourself since you entered Nogizaka46? I love dancing. Because I am not good at exercising, and I played brass instruments as a club activity, I thought I’d lead a life without dance, but when I tried it I found it to be surprisingly enjoyable. The dances are hard to remember, but it’s fun! 23. What Nogizaka46 song is your favorite? “Kanashimi no Wasurekata”. I love the lyrics, and when I feel lonely, listening to it gives me energy! 24. With which member are you the closest? With 4th gen member Tsutsui Ayame-chan. Ayame-chan is 3 years younger and still in middle school, but we both come from Aichi prefecture so we have a lot of topics to talk about in common! It’s really comforting. 25. What’s a hot topic amongst the members nowadays? The fact that Shiraishi Mai is way too beautiful in the television drama “Ore no Sukaato, Doko Itta?”! 26. If you could change places with another member, who would you want to be? I want to become them all…...♡ 27. If you would date a member, who would it be? Seimiya Rei-chan. Everything about Rei is interesting. Her behavior as well….. She is very funny and I will never get tired of her, so I think dating her would be fun. I laugh very easily to begin with (laughs). 28. Is there a trend among the members? There is this T-shirt we received during the 4th gen Birthday Live shows, but they are often worn during lessons. Not by all members, but recently people are starting to wear it every now and then. I keep it in my room carefully! 29. Which member did you have contact with the latest? Kaki Haruka-chan. When we were on our way to the same location, I asked “where are you?” (laughs). 30. Please say a few words to the readers of CanCam! It was my first CanCam photo shoot, and I was nervous but I was able to enjoy it! Because it was different and more adult-like atmosphere than usual with Nogizaka46, I would be happy if you’d check it. ♡
Woah, the first solo CM for Sakura. TV CM Ad Council Japan x NHK Campaign "2019 Ikimono Inochi" https://www.ad-c.or.jp/campaign/nhk/nhk01.html Mgmt probably serious to make her to be the next star.
She is sweet, calm, and mysterious at the same time. I like her to be 4G's ori center. But just hope she wont push as sole center of her gen. Rotational like what management did to 3G was brilliant. Ori ace wont get much hate and other members can get chance to shine as center too. Saku, Ayamen, and Mayunee already popular from the beginning. But there also Saa-chan, Kaki, and Yan-chan that continue to rise rapidly.
