Thank you as always for opening my blog.
Now that it’s been 9 days,
I’m Katsumata Haru!
I received the baton from Hina, with whom I shared a hotel room during Kyocera Dome～🐣
Hina and I often shared a room when we were in our trainee period as well, so rather than excitement, it felt more calming and at home to room with her again～☘️

__Thank you for the 2 day performance at Kyocera Dome
「5th TOUR 2025 “Addiction”」
With the Kyocera Dome performances on August 23rd and 24th, we have successfully completed the final dates of the tour.
I heard the announcement for the tour while I was a trainee and never could have dreamed that I’d be participating in it. Instead it was more like “I wonder if I’ll be able to get tickets～” lol
For that reason, once I knew the 4th gen would be performing at Tokyo and Kyocera Domes, while I was surprised, at the same time I also had concerns about whether or not we were good enough.
But I was able to run through the concerts with the mindset that we’d make the tour even more exciting, and this was thanks to our seniors words of encouragement and outstretched hands of support, saying they were looking forward to it and telling us “let’s do this together.”
I was desperately trying to adhere to the idea that with each tomorrow, I’d surpass today and that the final day I’d deliver my absolute best, but our seniors showed a new expression with each performance, honing each and every moment to create the best show possible. That became a huge inspiration for me.
I want to do what I can to use this experience as fuel to expand the range of my expression.
I also tried going down to the seating area after the concert～
Looking from the seats, it was refreshing to see a new view of the stage from what I usually see.
Buddies, who came to the venue and filled all these seats just like this.
Buddies, who wanted to come here, wanted to sit in these seats, despite the fact that we couldn’t meet directly this time.
The staff, who worked from early in the morning to late at night to prepare for the start of this event by arranging all these chairs.
Our managers, who stayed by our side and supported us right up to the performance itself.
There are so many faces of people I want to convey gratitude to floating around in my head that I could never stop writing about them here.
🫧🕊️☘️
With Wakonee-san.
We hung out just the 2 of us the other day, and she’s so familiar with Tokyo that she got us to where we were going without getting lost at all. Seriously cool.
Wakochi tends to be self-deprecating at times, but she’s a reliable girl that supports and encourages the other members a lot. She’s also more serious towards her work than most, and that’s always motivating to me🔥
__Autumn is the harvest season
In my last blog, as part of Katsumata Haru’s Plans for Autumn
I introduced “Autumn is the season for eating” and “Autumn is the season for reading” segments
As I announced, today I will talk about the 3rd segment of my autumn plans
“Autumn is the harvest season”
Since there are generally a lot of crops such as rice and sweet potato harvest in autumn, it’s often called the “harvest season.”🌾
But for me, the “harvest season” means something a bit different,.
It’s been just under 4 months since I’ve joined Sakurazaka46.
I will take the experience I’ve gained through spring and summer, and make sure that what I learned bears fruit for my own growth.
And as a member of this group, I will work towards adding even more sakura petals, so that this group can become loved by even more people.
“My own growth, and the contribution I make to the group through growing”
I was already conscious of this before now, but
Now that this dome performance
where I learned so much and felt so much support
is over.
I want to reiterate my goals and make them happen.
No, I will *make* them happen!!
__What are your plans for tonight around 8?🙄
Every day from August 26th (Tue) to September 3rd (Wed),
on Sakurazaka Channel,
there is a Relay Livestream on YouTube being streamed by the 4th gens!
Have you watched the 3 that have streamed so far? I watched both the livestream and the archive, at least 2 times each, and was smiling and having so much fun while I watched🤭
And on the 4th day, today, August 29th (Thu), starting at 8pm
it’ll be me! Katsumata Haru!
It’s an amazing coincidence that it’s the same day as my blog.
Which means once you finish reading this blog, you won’t have to wait 9 days, I’ll see you again right away!
This means you got no choice but to come see me
I hope I get to interact with all of you a lot～
I wanna do a bunch of different things
and as I write this blog, I’m so restless thinking about it💭
We’ll have lots and lots of fun🐙
__Tomorrow’s blog
Neo!
There are a lot of girls that are good at drawing in the 4th gen, and I’m really jealous of them because I’m not good at all. But the single person I have that’s experiencing my side of this is Neo, so I feel a sense of kinship with her🫶
But Neo’s a hard worker and can improve at anything she works towards, so just stay the way you are at least with just drawing lolol
__
My next blog will be on September 7th (Sun)!
Can you believe it’s happening again..
that’s the same day as the pair lain online meet & greet and signing event!!
Hasn’t my blog overlapped a lot with days that there are events where I get to meet everyone…!?😲🎉
Well then,
Great job again today!
See you soon～🙌
