Everyone~

Kouhaku is today

So I’ll be borrowing all your year-end power-   

Ariyasu Momoka: Dreaming girl (*’-’).:*:゜☆

Everyone-
There’s 3 days left in this year- (* *)

Wow, it feels like we’ve just rushed through this entire year!!…
And something impossible will be coming next year…
But I’d like to welcome the new year with calm spirits ^^;

Yes!! Take a deep breath-

In- Out-

It’ll be alright （^Θ^） Time won’t run away

Even when the new year comes,
we’ll surely have enough time (*・Θ-*)

Ah! But to everyone who has to work over the new year
Hang on!!
Fight-  

Alright, as for me
Ever since that day when Momoclo received a new challenge
I feel like I’ve grown up a little bit ♪
(Oh, not as a dango ^^; lol)

I mean,
we’ve been performing with so many distinguished guests
these few days (* *) It’s just too much!!

So many eminent artistes right before our eyes
at Fuji TV’s Christmas Party,
and at the live broadcast…
It’s been a long while, but I felt that my heart was going to burst （>Θ<）

I mean,
I got to sing a duet
with Ise Shouzou-san himself, who wrote the lyrics and composed
“Nagori yuki” and “22-sai no wakare”
Full of tears of gratitude (*T T*) Can’t stop my trembling 

Lots of other distinguished guests performed right before our eyes,
singing live,
and we got to sing along as well ♪
It was such a joyful time de-ariyasu
(Oh, Nishikawa-san also made us laugh until our tummies hurt ^w^)

To everyone who performed with us
Thank you so much  

And to everyone who watched the show ♪
(My family has finally started watching SkyPark and NEXT ^^)

However,
yesterday’s M-Sta Super Live 

was another gathering of eminent artistes (* *)
(Thank you to everyone who watched ♪ and commented! *^^*)

It’s just so unbelievable
Momoclo-chan is living a dream everyday  

Someone~ Please pinch my cheek-!! ><

Anything that’s written in the schedule book will come true .:*:゜☆

I’m not Rikopii (the girl from the NHK Christmas drama ^^)
But she makes me want to believe
in the impossible…

And I’m the sort who is really realistic and grounded
But I’ve been having such thoughts recently de-ariyasu 

Ah- before I go to bed tonight
I shall write something down in my schedule book for next year (*’-’).:*:゜☆

Oh well ♪

P.S.
We put on our favourite costumes
For the ending of M-Sta~ 

Shiori wore red
Reni wore yellow
I wore pink

Ah!! It’s the “supported” team colours!… w(￣▽￣;)w

——

Notes:
1. Rikopii is the character Momoka plays in Christmas drama Tenshi to Jump. She believes that anything that’s written in her schedule book will come true.
2. The “supported” team is the opposite of what the Momoka-Reni duet unit calls themselves: Team “More support from the office” (Jimusho ni motto osare tai)

Ariyasu Momoka: Momoclo’s dream

momoka201312

Everyon who came to Seibu-
Did every~one get home safe-?? 

Did anyone catch a cold??

To everyone who came from afar
and everyone who supported us through Live Viewing
and everyone who watched the live streaming at home,
Everyone~ thank you so much  

Being able to spend the same time ☆ at this year’s Momokuri
is the best memory for me!! 

I’ll never forget it-  

Ah! To everyone who couldn’t watch it because of work,
please wait for the video (*・Θ-*)

I’m sure it’ll give you a wonderful time .:*:゜☆

Alright, I’ve done a flying already
So again~ for the second time

Merry Christmas  

I made it in timeeeee (laugh)

And then, thank you
for so many quick comments 

Yes!!
There was a shocking announcement at Seibu Dome (* *)

In that moment, we were truly frozen
and so shocked that we didn’t know what was going on

But we!!

At that National Stadium!!

We’re going to hold a concert there (*T T*)

Once again, I’m reminded of how
people are unable to speak when they are too happy （*Θ*）

And then, it’ll be held for 2days on 15/3 and 16/3

Which coincidentally falls on my birthday
Which was another shock (* *)

I’m really so so grateful that my birthday
falls on a Saturday de-ariyasu （*｀・Θ・´*）

Our dream has come true, thanks to everyone 

I’m feeling…the best and highest happiness now!

There’s still a part of me that can’t believe it,
and my heart is so full of excitement
that my hands are fumbling ^^;

But everyone’s cheers at Seibu Dome then
still ring in my ears now,
and that scene is seared onto my eyes

So this is surely not a dream
but reality ☆

A single true reality
that millions who have always supported us
through concerts, our blogs and other places,
have made true together with us ☆

The vague illusion-like dream
we made at Kokuritsugawa (←does everyone remember this?!!)
has really come true, just like that 

Wow!! What is this-?
Mononofu’s power? (* *)

Uuuuuh, I’m going to cry… (*T T*)

And I promised on UStream just now that “I won’t cry!!”,
but I’ve broken that promise…

My mind was really blank
as if everything had been blown away 

And so,
I’ve come late here to report
to those who could not come…

For the concert,
we revealed a new song, as per Momokuri tradition,
and also sang a song by Twinkle5
(Oh! Thank you to everyone who watched the drama! *^^*)

Yes yes, and we dashed through the venue on bicycles again

And then and then,
athlete Suguri Fumie performed a wonderful skating show
on the ice rink on stage
(The piano collab with Shiroi kaze was godly-!!)

We spent the very best time
with so much performances during this midwinter’s Momokuri
while enjoying the cold 

And the support from downtown Momoclo band
who always helps us out and gets us all high
(I always enjoy a live band performance ♪)

To spend the best and happiest Christmas with everyone,
I’m just so happy! 

To everyone who came
And everyone who delivered their voices, lights, smiles and power to us

And everyone who delivered through Live Viewing to us from afar

And then, everyone who sent us cheers from wherever they are

All of us, thank you so much  

Did our smiles and love reach out to you-?? 

The live broadcast will air on Fuji TV’s NEXT today (19:00~)

M-Sta Super Live on the 27th

Kouhaku

Then National Stadium

Then then, our next step on the road…

The 3B event on 4 Jan,
Pepsi Zero live,
Mu~comi’s anime Kouhaku,
and Valentine’s event ♪

We’ll meet everyone again

The happiness won’t stop 

The “thank you”s won’t stop 

The you today will make the dream tomorrow come true.

Ah! But Momoclo’s dreams
will come true because of everyone

Notes:
1. Kokuritsugawa is written “国立川”, a combination of the words “国立” kokuritsu and “立川” Tachikawa. The term was coined in November 2011, during the launch event for single “Roudou sanka”, which took place on the rooftop of “Tachikawa from chuubu” building. During the event, the girls spoke of their wish to perform at the National Stadium, which is located in the nearby town, and so combined the names of these 2 places to give “kokuritsugawa”.
2. Fumie Suguri is a Japanese figure skater. She is a three-time World medalist, a three-time Four Continents champion, the 2003 Grand Prix Final champion, and a five-time Japanese national champion.

Ariyasu Momoka: Flying!! Merry Christmas ☆

Thank you
to everyone who watched Studio Park!  

Live broadcasts are really pit-a-pat heart throbs （^Θ^;）

Al-right, finally,
it’ll be the 22nd soon
And Momokuri and Christmas
are just before us!!!

Ah! To everyone coming to Seibu,
please dress warmly like dango- (laugh)

Rolling rolling… fufufu ♪

It’ll be really cold
So make sure you’re prepared! (*・Θ-*)

It’s still a little early,
but to everyone reading this blog

Merry Christmas 

Happy Christmas  

I don’t have much
but I hope to deliver love to everyone…☆

Notes:
1. The “Flying” in the title refers to “Flying get”, the Japanese Internet slang word for buying merchandise more than a day earlier than its official release date.
2. Dango is a Japanese dumpling made from rice flour.

Ariyasu Momoka: Family

Tags

momoka201312

A full heart
A full stomach
Overflowing with love
Such happiness….. 

Had dinner with my family yesterday
Then we spent some time
Just chatting and listening to music (*^Θ^*)

Just talking and laughing over random things

Such times when we get to relax
Are just so much fun   

I love spending time with my family
Such times must be essential
So I hope I get to do this again (*’-’*)

Everyone may have their own stuff to do
but no matter what,
a family is still family…

So just try to remember them every now and then
and feel proud of them  

Ah! For everyone who can’t feel proud because they feel all alone,
I’ll light up the spark in.your.heart (laugh)

Ariyasu Momoka: Dango de-ariyasu (^Θ^)

Tags

momoka201312

Ye-s 
Dango ♪ Dango ♪

Mama bought these
Zunda dango today (*・Θ-*)

And so,
as Taka-san has named me
I’ll be known as “dango” from now on ☆

My special trait is doing somersaults （｀・Θ・´）

That’s it (laugh)

Nah, I was joking (^m^)

I’m not Dango-
I’m Momo- (lol)

With that,
to everyone who doesn’t like to eat it,
though I actually don’t know of any~
Thank you- 

Ah! Sazae Tsuboyaki
was so delicious-
I wanted everyone to have a taste too! （^Θ^）

The filming was so funny I almost died laughing
Ahh, such fun memories~ (*’-’).:*:゜☆

Oh yes-
From 19:00 on today, on Nippon TV
I’ll be appearing on the programme
“Robot Nippon Ikketsu Teisan! Real Robot Battle”-  (lol)

Everyone~ Please watch it if you can-  
(If this is updated later than the showtime, I’m sorry ><;)

Ah! Momoclo-chan has been
having fun with preparations for Momokuri and rehearsals- 

I went for the filming
for the opening movie today too
(It was so cold {{{{(+＿+)}}}})
Everything is going smoothly de-ariya-su 
There’s lots of off-shots too,
and I’ll upload them next time- 

I guess everyone is in a panic now
due to the year coming to a close, but

Listen to good music, do things you enjoy to recharge
And spend the rest of 2013
Meaningfully ♪
Happily ♪
Healthily ♪

And~ if we can all welcome 2014
together with energy, it’ll be the best (*’-’).:*:゜☆

It’ll be getting colder from now on
So please take care not to catch a cold  

I’ll be sending you ☆ Dango power~~~ (lol)

Notes:
1. Dango is a Japanese dumpling made from rice flour
2. Zunda: Mashed green soybeans
3. Momoka was making a food-related pun when she said “I’m not Dango- I’m Momo-” as momo means “peach” in Japanese.
4. Sazae Tsuboyaki is conch shell meat, grilled with the meat still inside the shell.

Ariyasu Momoka: Apples and oranges （*^Θ^*）

Tags

momoka201312

Thank you
for all your comments regarding FNS 

And also the comments regarding Rikopii’s birthday (laugh) ♪

Alright, today-
we received a huge cardboard box from Grandma~ 

It contained vegetables harvested from her plantation,
grilled conger eels and dried horse mackerel ♪

And then-
my favourite oranges were there too (*’-’*)
So—- many of them   

And then and then,
there were apples too- 

Look-
These apples~
So big and glossy and delicious-looking- 

And these apples came~
Right after we performed “Ringo satsujin jiken” (laugh)

Such good timing de-ariyasu (^w^)ww

I really love fruits-
So this was true bliss 

Ah! But I need to make sure I don’t eat too much （^Θ^;）

——

Notes:
1. I used orange in the translation, but Momoka uses the word “mikan”, which refers specifically to satsuma mandarin oranges
2. Rikopii is the character Momoka plays in drama Tenshi to Jump
3. “Ringo satsujin jiken” translated is “The Apple Murder Incident”

The other members’ blogs
already have lots of group photo uploads,
since that’s enough, I’ll restrain myself a little here ^^;

Which means I’ll upload some other photos-  

By the way, we did collabs this time with
THE ALFEE-san on
“Kogarashi ni dakarete”,

Gou Hiromi-san on
“Ringo satsujin jiken”,

and Saitou Yuki-san on
“Yume no naka he”.

For “Ringo satsujin jiken”,
I got to play the part of Kiki Kirin-san (*・Θ-*)

Wow,
we got to see lots of grand artistes perform right in front of our eyes this year again

We had a really happy time ♪

Full of gratitude de-ariyasu （*^Θ^*）

With FNS over,
Momokuri
suddenly feels that much closer 

Finally! (*’-’*)

Everyone~ ♪
Let’s get excited together-

Notes:
1. Gou Hiromi and Kiki Kirin sang “Ringo satsujin jiken” as a duet in the past

Papa took the first photo for me
when he went on his business trip （*^Θ^*）

Al-right, FNS is tomorrow~  

That we’ve been invited to perform once again
at the annual traditional year-end’s largest event
FNS Song Festival, full of my favourite collabs…

I’m just so filled with emotion de-ariyasu (*T T*)

We’ll work hard to reach out to everyone,
