Hello βοΈ
It’s Nakagawa Chihiro
17 years old from Nagasaki Prefecture
I received the baton from Neo π€π»
During the stream, I ended up talking about Neoβs sushi story~!
Neo usually seems so mature, but when she said, “Actually, I can eat a lot more~”, she looked super cute lol
There are about two places we promised weβd go together, right? Letβs definitely go π

Octo-chi ( Φ Μ« Φ)
Since almost all of 4th generation members have posted pictures of themselves as octopus on their blogs, I joined in and posted one too!
It seems like when you go to Osaka, you can become an octopus β¨οΈ
ππππππππππππππ
First of all, thank you very much for the “5th TOUR 2025 ‘Addiction'” Kyocera Dome Osaka concert!
The tour, which Iβve been able to join since the Tokyo Dome concert, has finally reached its final show πΈ
When we, the 4th generation members, learned that we would be able to participate in this tour, it honestly felt like a dream, and it didnβt sink in right away
During rehearsals, I often realized just how lacking my abilities were and wondered many times if I was really worthy of standing on this stage. But while encouraging myself, I kept practicing over and over so that I could deliver a performance that would truly reach everyoneβs hearts
In particular, I always felt that I wasnβt very good at expressing the worldview of the lyrics, and that I couldnβt go on like that
Just when I was struggling with that, I had the chance to watch the “12th Single BACKS LIVE!!”, and I was amazed by the wide range of expressiveness of my seniors.
I was so captivated that I even forgot to blink.
After that, by exploring in my own way with facial expressions and the nuances of movements, I feel like I was able to grow just a little bit!
After the Tokyo Dome concert, during the meet and greet
Many people told me, βYour expressions have really grown,β and it made me so happy to realize like, there are people who are truly watching me…!
At the Kyocera Dome Osaka concert, I performed with the determination to show an even more improved version of myself
If that came across, Iβd be really happy

But I still feel that Iβm inexperienced
And I also get impatient thinking that I need to keep evolving even more
The next time I have the chance to stand on the same stage as my seniors, Iβll hold my head high and proudly stand beside them!
Please watch over me
Iβll never forget the sight of the fully-bloomed cherry blossoms that all the Buddies showed us during “Sakurazaka no Uta”!
I want to see that scenery again together with my beloved group, my wonderful seniors, and my fellow 4th gens
ππππππππππππππ
The B.L.T. SUMMER CANDY 2025, which I mentioned in my previous blog where Yamada and I are featured, has been released!

Momo-chan and I were really looking forward to the release, and we read it together π
My favorite is Momo-chan on the third page!
When we were reading it, Hiiro was also there, and she said I looked mature, which made me really happy β©
Please check it out β¨οΈ
ππππππππππππππ
Iβll be appearing on “Sakurazaka46 no (Sa)” which will be broadcast on Bunka Housou today from 19:00 π»
Todayβs episode will be the first appearance for 4th generation members!
I talked a lot with Ishimori Rika-san and Asai Konomi~β¨οΈ It was a really fun recording!
And todayβs broadcast marks the 100th episode of “Sakurazaka46 no (Sa)”πΈ
I was really happy to be able to take part in such a special occasion! I canβt wait to listen to it~
Through this radio show, I feel like I got a little closer to Rika-san, it makes me so happy! After the Kyocera Dome Osaka concert, someone patted me on the head from behind, and when I turned around, it was Rika-san smiling brightly, she was so cute I thought I might faint
Next time, let me be the one to initiate the conversation!!
ππππππππππππππ
This week, the 4th generation relay YouTube solo livestreams have started!
By lottery, I got to be the first one!
At first I was nervous, but partway through I started having fun, and I ended up talking so much that before I knew it, 30 minutes had already passed (Β°βΒ°…)
Actually, I had written down a lot of notes about what I wanted to talk about, but I didnβt even get through half of them π
Thatβs how quickly the time flew by π
Thank you so much to everyone who tuned in!
Thereβs an archive available, so if you missed it, please check it out ( α· α΅ α· )

At 25:19, I noticed Torikichi and Bunjirou being lovey-dovey, it cracked me up
The one who will be streaming today is Meguro Hiiro-chan βοΈ
She has a soft, gentle vibe, but sheβs really good at talking and also funny! I feel like sheβs going to make a bunch of natural airheaded remarks, so Iβm excited to see it βΊοΈ If you watch the stream, thereβs no doubt all the Buddies will be pulled right into Hiiroβs charm-trap…!
Since there is also a repeat broadcast today, letβs all gather on the Sakurazaka Channel at 21:30 π«‘
Speaking of which!
The Sylvanian Families-san I opened in less than a minute due to not enough time…! Actually, I got the one I was hoping for and was really happy, but since I only had 3 minutes left, I didnβt even have time to celebrate πΉ

(My plan was to take it out after about 15 minutes and spend 5 minutes opening it lol)
Actually, the one on the left was the one I was hoping for!
Iβll treasure it β‘
ππππππππππππππ
Tomorrow is Wakochi’s turn!
I was watching the YouTube stream with Momo-chan, and when someone said, “Doesnβt Biwa Lake (Biwako) and Wako sound alike?β” we both burst out laughing
I think thatβs genius, Planet Wakochi power β¨β¨
Today, August comes to an end
Time really flies, itβs surprising~~
Recently, a friend from back home came to Tokyo, and we went out to eat together for the first time in a while! I ate Yoriyori (a Nagasaki snack) that I got from her, and it made me feel like going back to Nagasakiβ¦
I want to hang out with all my friends once their entrance exams are over
Letβs get along in September too
I hope it gets cooler π
See you again
