Happy Birthday Runa-chan!

 

Sorry, no internet for 4 days.

Anyhow, I'm not updated with Asuka's SRs but iirc she rejects fan requests during HS events... or at least that was what shown when she was featured on 7 Rules which was a long time ago, idk about it now.

It have been a while since I last visited this thread but here is Hayashi Runa's SR yesterday.
This is a great content for me this week while waiting for new skits season to be aired.

 

I'm getting to know the new 4th generation now, and she's by far the best for me.
A pity that she is in Nogizaka, I think she would shine much more in the sister groups.

 

Why?

 

i don't think so, because this girl is betting her life to be part of Nogizaka46

 

No need to worry. Nogizaka has the BEST management team.

 

Nogi have more resources than the sister groups , She have more opportunities to go up in the ladder in Nogi.

And Runa is one of the youngest in the group , its not like shes in a hurry or anything , Time is on her side

And her fellow Sakamichi kenshu aint shinin in other sister groups yet except for Sakurazaka's Ozono Rei

 

Nogi of course is the sister group with the most resources, but that doesn't necessarily mean that they are distributed equally. There are plenty of 2ki and 3ki who don't get much activities and have never entered senbatsu. Not to say that S&F are better (they definitely aren't) but I could get where @Baal is coming from, other sister groups have less competition for the spotlight.

But I don't think Runa fans need to worry. Management seems to like her a lot, and she's definitely popular. I think she will get her chance at the spotlight sooner rather than later.

 

Yeah there are upsides and downsides to being in Nogi vs. Sakura vs. Hinata. But Runa is a Nogi fan and Nogi is the reason she wanted to be an idol, so she's better off in Nogi.

 

If you're a mid/top popular member, is better to be in Nogi.
If you're not popular it's better to be in Sakura/Hinata cause there's more chance to still shine since there's less members.
Also, Nogi's brand is much stronger, but there's also much more songs and choreographies to learn for newbies.

 

I dont really like to say this girl will be better in this group, or that girl will do better in that group. But imagine if Neru is in Nogi or Hinata, how bright she would shine..

 

Her latest blog entry: http://blog.nogizaka46.com/newfourth/2020/12/059031.php

Interesting to note that she was told Himetan was watching the live given that she performed her solo song. I'm hoping Himetan approved. I also just realized that Runa's light stick colors are also Hime's.

 

I'm sure Himetan approved. That performance was stellar.

 

She want to be the boyfriend for Nogi members? She want her lil' sis to call her Oniichan? The unique side of Runa.

Runapii singing 3月9日 by Remioromen to her middle school teacher. I remember first hearing this song on the drama 1 Rittoru no Namida.

Edit: vid was taken down! You can still find it if you search.

 

Runa is really so precious! I did a few meguris with her and she's always so sweet and thankful. She even recognized me but I'm not sure if it's cause her memory is good or because I've already spent too much on meguris

I mentioned that she has a lot overseas fans and she was really happy as well Hope I can meet her in person once they open handshake events again
