    Breaking News ❤ Makeup Forever among me is the strongest! ! !Powder is excellent and famous, but it's really too good to try it! Especially for those who use Liquid Founde, it contains ingredients that suppress sebum ️ ️ sebum, but it does not make your skin powdery and will show you beautiful! Because it becomes smooth, everyone who really uses it ~ ️ ️And it is recommended that together with the lip booster number 01 ❤ ︎ This is what makes the lips clearer! Become a pulp! ! ! When it does not make it so natural it can be painted, I painted before makeup, it is really good to overlap the lip from above. ♀ ️ Come and tell this goodness! Wish you to be all together! Since I think that I will collect products of makeup Forever from now on, I will teach you if there is still good #makeakeforever #makeup #makeup # makeup forever

    Decided to provide my own humble translation of the article that Katomina wrote for the Sankei Plus column not so long ago, hope it's appreciated.
    The site's policy makes it impossible to access the full page without their app, and I thought it would've been too bad for a thoughtful piece like this to get no attention due to this.
    As to be expected from the title, there are many thoughts and consideration concerning her role as captain inside.

    ---

    What does being a captain mean? Kato Minami


    [​IMG]

    The imagine of captain that I always had in mind was that of a leader-like personality gifted with patience and presence of mind, who is capable of creating the right atmosphere for everyone around themselves. Since this July, I was set to serve as the captain of the new NGT48 Team NIII.

    To tell the truth, at the time this was first announced, I stood there completely unable to accept the news for what it was. How come? There is a number of factors that led me to feel this way. For one thing, I am actually someone who tends to fold easily when dealing with anxieties about something, when facing a task that is essential for me to complete, or when under pressure. On top of that, I am also reluctant to show my own weaknesses when in front of the other members. To say it colloqually, I have a personality characterized by a high sense of pride in myself. For this reason, more than once have I have tried to engage in things all by myself and with too much vehemence, only to almost run myself into the ground in the end.

    Why is it that I was chosen to be the captain, then? I had no idea. It is then that I asked Rie Kitahara-san, NGT48's original captain. "I believe that Kato has what it takes to become a captain that will shape up a new NGT48, one that will surely be different from the one I handled.", she told me. "You have the potential to become a captain that people around you would be eager to assist and support."

    The ideal captain figure I had in my mind had always been, all the way until now, that of Kitahara-san -- someone who at any time and in any circumstances, would always stand by us, who would pay attention to people around herself. Instead of just saying out loud what she is having in mind, she'd rather be the first to demonstrate this to everyone through her own actions.

    For me, this three-year period has been one during which I had to constantly receive support and help from others, never expecting that I could go on to be selected for captain one day. Therefore, I have never stopped to consider how to act as a captain or any such things. But in the midst of this, there was something that I have noticed. That the senpais I look up to and who I have grown to appreciate are all, invariably, members who were capable of coordinating their own groups as a natural talent.

    The former General Manager of AKB48, Takahashi Minami-san, who I came to love for the influential impact of her words, back when I was watching her from the other side of the television screen. The former Nogizaka46 member Ikoma Rina-san, who left me deeply impressed after reading her interviews on magazines. And then, Keyakizaka46's Sugai Yuka-san, with a way of thinking that I found simply brilliant after reading, in the same way, a number of articles on her.

    All the people I have ever looked at thinking "I want to have a conversation with them!", "I want to learn to consider things with the same mindset they do" were of course members possessing a good sense of responsibility. As much as I have no self-confidence about myself, I realized how I still felt a sense of fascination for the figure of captain ever since before this point.

    Even so, once I actually got to stand in the position of captain, as I am doing doing today, I came to realize how being a captain doesn't mean you necessarily need to be perfect at all times. If anything, being myself the first to understand this notion and in consideration of this, I would like to bring the people around me to aid me out with their assistance, on the contrary.

    I have been pondering over what it is to be a captain. The answer is that it's an art in itself. There no right answer as to what form or method is correct. To be able to personally infuse it with your own personal touches, is truly a fantastic thing. And while expressing my gratitude to all those people who will find out the inherent appeal of such a style, from here on, I'll keep on pursuing my own image of a captain.

    Dude, i wanna thank you so much. I'm always trying my hardest to translate stuff, though with Google Translate and then just trying to make out of it whatever the hell it says. (whether that is her instagram posts or ''Minamails'') It's the same as i did with this article but now things just fit more and make sense once translated by someone more professional than Google Translate. Thank you so much for this. Like, this is a hell of a motivation boost for me to get better at Japanese, helping out fellow fans, wanting to spread around my kami-oshi. That's all i want. More people knowing this magnificent girl. Thanks. Seriously.

    Nope. Pretty sure that's her new haircolor. Then again, she'll probably dye it again soon.

    (honestly hope she'll stop it dyeing it so many times, as it's pretty bad for her hair...)

    Isn't that from back when they were still shooting the drama though? Like, compare it to yesterday when she ran into STU, and you can see a difference.
