I just watched the Nogizaka Skits live from April 18th, and I've got to post this here for the Tsutsui-san fans: Have you seen her rendition of the spoof song "Namida No Nogizaka" at about the 1:24:46 mark? My god, I want this on my playlist! The studio musicians really took this arrangement and performance seriously as well, as witnessed by the guitar work (especially at the end where the guitarist bends the strings up a full step). This is one of those songs that is good enough to close out a live show, as witnessed by it's "dry run" on this particular performance. props to Tsutsui-san for proving that she's not just another pretty face (as if anyone had any doubt)!
I think this is the last batch. Nogizaka official twitter sending out each member's personal album cover for the Time Flies album. It's a good excuse to move everyone up. Ayamen: https://twitter.com/nogizaka46/status/1454704833693290496?s=20

Meet & Greet Report: So, if anyone has read any of my reports from other virtual meetings I’ve had with Sakamichi members, you’ll know that I’m very boring so I apologize in advance. While I don’t share a report each time I meet a member, this was my second (virtual) meeting with Tsutsui so I figured I would post about both. For my first meeting with her in November, I pretty much just rambled about “Zabunzazabun” the whole time, which she seemed to get a kick out of. She probably wasn’t expecting a random gaijin to pop in on one of the calls and ramble about a coupling song that wasn’t even from the most recent single. If the universe ever stops conspiring against me (joking, it’s just been a series of bad luck) and I can finally meet Yoda then I’ll probably rant about it to her as well. Ayamen seemed genuinely appreciative though, and I really get the impression that she was happy to see a foreign fan. For the second meeting last night, she started clapping during my greeting. I’m not sure if that’s something she does a lot or if she was doing it because she remembered me, but she was in high spirits. I noticed that while I was talking, she had the most attentive look on her face like she was hanging on every word. Maybe that’s because my Japanese is so bad and she had to focus really hard, but I think she’s just a really good idol who can make the fans feel like each of the meetings is a big deal for her. Obviously every idol I’ve met had been attentive and engaged, but with Ayamen it still somehow really stood out. I’d be interested to see if anyone else has met her and would agree with that. Anyway, I asked what her favorite English word/phrase was and I’m glad the Time Flies tickets allotted more time than usual because she struggled with that one and took up some time. But still, the panic is the point of that question after all. She made every variation of a thinking face there is and exclaimed “ehh?! nandarou” before eventually settling on the common “I love you.” Was running out of time after that, so I remarked that she was “always cool” which I think makes me sound dumb but it’s something I seem to say a lot. That got an “ureshii” and waving as time expired. In short, Ayamen is always cool.
