It seems that many members have gotten over a certain fear after entering Nogizaka. Their bravery is inspiring.
Man, Tama-chan is too good. I love her "can do" and "will do" attitude. She did a good job on her summer challenge on Sunday's NogiChu, but she was unsuccessful. She tried her best. I think I'll blame the dogs... er.. the wind for her failing the challenge! LOL. Anyhow, it seems like the dog owners wrote about the show: http://www.auradog.com/2019-11-4 It was accompanied by a classic Tama-chan drawing.
