131023 AKB48 Team A Waiting Stage - Oshima Ryouka Birthday Stage
Seitansai letter by Moechan:Dear Ryouka,
Happy Birthday.
It’s been 4 years since we first met each other.
We were in the same class when we’re in 5th grade of elementary school,
before we knew it, we had become friends who can go to toilet together.
When I tie my hair to the school, you said that I looks like [AKB].
And you introduce me to the group name AKB48.
Not long after that, we’re dancing Oogoe Diamond in our classroom,
while impersonating AKB48.
Now I thought about it, if I never made friend with Ryouka,
I won’t be able to stand on the stage as AKB48 member today.
When we’re in secondary school, we learnt about 13th-gen audition.
Although we applied together, I always thought only Ryouka would passed.
Miraculously, we both passed the audition.
Our relationship went from “good friends in school” to “AKB48 members”
As a fellow AKB48 KKS, we experienced happiness and hardships together.
However last year 24th August in Tokyo Dome,
you were promoted to formal member before everyone else.
Since we are good friends, I see you as a rival.
I’m frustrated.
I never found a chance to properly congrats you on your promotion.
I’m sorry.
When I saw the Ryouka in Team A,
I feels like you’re getting further and further away from me day by day.
I’m getting more and more restless trying to follow you.
Then, 24th August this year in Tokyo Dome,
the same day as your promotion,
the rest of the 13th-gen were promoted.
Although it’s separated by a year,
even if it is by coincidence,
I’m really happy that we’re able to be promoted on the same day.
When my name was called,
you ran to me on stage with full speed and hug me.
I’m really happy. Thank you.
You always try to invite the whole 13th-gen to lunch,
always trying to cheer us up by mail when we’re down,
the you who are always thinking about your friends,
the you who always doodle on member’s note,
the you who always hide member’s food,
the you who gave me a birthday present in December even though my birthday is in April,
these are all the things that I love about you.
Nowadays, people call you KSGK so you’re exempted from a lot of things.
But there comes a day when KSGK will no longer apply,
so please try to act a little more mature from now on
.
Under your mask of a playful character,
I’m sure there hides a lot of untold hardships and frustration.
I might not be the best person for it,
but if you feels like it you can always rely on me.
We might be in a different team, but let’s work hard together.
You’re my best friends who can talk about anything,
and you’re my important rival.
Let’s work hard on our study too.
Best regards,
Team 4
Aigasa Moe
After Juri finished reading the birthday message from Moe.
Ryouka: I just met her this morning at school so it’s a little awkward. And we just mail each other just now. She promise me to watch this stage live.
Ryouka: The 14th years old me always thought about a lot of things and rarely take much action. I wish to be more proactive. Recently I’ve been given chances to appear on AKBingo, but I’m surprisingly nervous and fail to leave much impression. I wish to be more proactive without the fear of failing.
Ryouka: Thanks to my fellow Team A members that I was able to come this far alone (turns to her members and notice the heartfelt looks from members, instantly turn around again and cried).
Juri cried.
Ryouka: (weeping) I can’t control my tears when I saw everyone face.
Yui and Takamina cried too.
Most of other members cried.
Ryouka: It is thanks to everyone here that I was able to come this far without much worries. I really appreciate it.
Tsundere performance from her Seitansai stage (Yuihan, Ayarin, Ryoka) with her BDay hat and Yuihan/Ayarin wearing BDay glasses.
It was a great seitansai
