We Still Subbing

There’s a serene atmosphere that surrounds the girl who grew up not knowing the hustle and bustle of the city. As if at a walking pace, comfortably.  -------- When speaking of Ozono-san, there’s a strong impression of “interesting blogs”. Thank you very much (laughs). I write them in the way that I want to, but actually at first, I consulted the staff about it. Is it fine to keep writing them the way that I am now, would it be better if I wrote it more cutesy, I was troubled. Then they told me, “Write in the way that you want to”, and then I thought, “Okay, I’ll write the way I like!”, so it turned into that style of writing. Even the story about how you were saved by Keyakizaka46’s “Eccentric”; although the content was “as heavy as a dumbbell”, it was written in a light-hearted and witty way. Since before I had talked about “being saved”, but I thought that writing about more specific things would convey the strength of my thoughts. Because of that, I wrote that blog....

Though the two of you are from separate groups, since being grouped together for the “Sakamichi Joint Audition” campaign 2 years ago, I’ve heard that you have been interacting under the name of “MatsuO Party.” I think it would be great if you could become even closer through this magazine. Basically, I will have the two of you talk candidly, but it might become like an extension of “KochiHoshi” which Ozeki-san serves as the host for so I feel a little bit sorry (laughs).  Ozeki: It’s completely fine! Konoka~, how are you? Matsuda: Long time no see, I’m well~. Ozeki: It’s been a while hasn’t it. Matsuda: Recently, on my birthday (27th of April) Ozeki-san sent me a message of congratulation, thank you very much! Ozeki: That’s right. It was when we were still in the middle of the self-imposed lockdown, when we weren't able to meet, right. Matsuda: Yes. When the lockdown was lifted and we were allowed to go out, I was invited to go out for food again [by Ozeki]. I was ve...

Interviewer: The two of you played Animal Crossing: New Horizons together during your time at home, didn't you? Can you tell us any stories about that or anything else that you'd like to share? We'd be happy to hear about what you've been up to recently, or you can expand on it in various ways, too. Habu: Of course! That's right. I heard that Miku-chan was playing Animal Crossing. Then I thought it would be a good idea to play together, so I tried contacting her. Kanemura: I was so happy when I was contacted, but it feels like it was so long ago... Habu: Yes, it was about two months ago already? Kanemura: Are you still playing Animal Crossing, Habu-san? Habu: I'm still playing. But now that I've completed the whole island, I reset everything and started over. Kanemura: Oh, really? Did you tear down that very fancy bathroom too?! Habu: Yeah, I tore down everything (laughs). It's going to take a lot of time to get it up to that level again...
