Thanks for all the ikuchan translations! It's been a while since someone has done it as often as you're doing right now. Is there any chance for you to translate the nikkei article @tiktok has posted? It looks interesting.

 

i dont guarantee i can finish translating that all because it's so long and im not that fluent in japanese but i'll try what i can!

Really, us fans would be happy with any translated bit you can share with us about our oshi so don't stress about it. Whatever works for you also works for us, lol. You're doing us a great service either way.

And those pictures! Ex-taishu always comes out with great pictures whenever Ikuchan gets a feature with them.

You simply are the best. Thank you for translating that one!

Kazumin is right, even variety-wise, Ikuchan is a hero. It's always a riot when she's around.

This part though:

Among the group, she's one of those members who often presents a cool and strong facade, so hearing her say something like that makes me want to hug her. Reminds me of that rare video of Ikoma pacifying a crying Ikuchan backstage during their Principal days.

yeah, ikuchan is just a girl after all. even "super human" can get to feel nervous too

 

Ikuchan with Alain Boubil (author of the librettos and original lyrics for the musicals Les Misérables and other musical plays)

Today's TV appearance

Les Miserables Medley SP
http://www.bilibili.com/video/av11453595/?from=search&seid=16811766138452374939

I weep at this girl's sheer talent. We're not worthy.

 

Thete ate few news from today appearance in NHK Gogonma:

1. Iku take break from her university
2. Her cooking skill improved
3. Eichiro Funakoshi oshiing her
4. Plus she look super amazing


It's true that she has heroine aura. She is typical Asadora heroine, Eichiro Funakoshi feel it.

Sorry for the delay, but for my second timeline I indeed chose Ikuchan.
I opted for a different style than Maiyan's timeline though.
