I'm sorry for any mistakes (grammar and typos), but there has been so many blog entries to translate that I didn't have the time to give every sentence the attention it deserved. I hope that it's still readable... and enjoyable. ^^

Ghana

Ghana already has a room for itself in my stomach (・∀・)V

Thanks to everyone who watched it!

It will be a long day for me today!

Good Morning ☆


Thank you for watching 5LDK. m(__)m
Today we are starting out appearances with Asazuba now.
In addition to that it also seems like we'll appear live on
Hiru-Obi, Soranavi, Sacas-san, THE NEWS and Yahoo!Live. (・∀・)
Please watch them!
In the photo you can see the rice balls the good-looking(!?) O-san from the Toho PR-Department got for us from Tsukiji this morning.
Tsukiji, in the morning!?
Unbelievable, isn't it (・∀・;)
Such a high level in the morning is amazing...

Note:
Tsukiji = A district on Tokyo known for its famous fish-market.

TBOOS!!


I found this on the first floor at TBS. (・∀・)
The pink ribbon panel is holding an exhibition!
There is even a photo of Chie and a photo from the movie at this panel about breast cancer!
Please come and visit it!

Eita-kun!


This big panel is also on the first floor at TBS!

There have been many pictures at the entrance of TBS, it almost looked like an arcade!
It was embarrassing~!

Yomei Ikkatgetsu No Hanayome


Tomorrow it will finally become open to the public.
It's been about 9 months since I've received the story.
I'm totally nervous.

This movie isn't trying to soften any facts, so I think that it will give most of you painful and sorrowful feelings.

However, it's also drawing the picture of a Chie who is living in the "now" with all her might, a Chie that can be happy about even the smallest things and the fact that the time she lived has been very valuable to her.

If you are able to receive this feeling, you'll get a very warm feeling inside yourself as well.

These are nothing more than my personal thoughts, though.

It might be a bit exaggerated, but what I hope and wish for is that a lot of people will get to see this movie and that each and everyone of them will start to recognize all the small happy things that happen every day, that way it would certainly become a much brighter world.

I'm so incredible thankful that I had the chance to come across Chie and all the overflowing love she received from everyone around her.

I hope that Chie's message will reach a lot of people.

Thank you very much.

King's Brunch


..is where I get to appear!
After that I'll go to the stage greeting! (・∀・)

Thanks you very much to all of you who understood my feelings. m(__)m
It made me very happy.

I also would like everyone who might be too busy to go to the cinema to someday buy and watch it on DVD.

However...
I really would prefer you to go and watch it on the big screen. *laughs*

Well then! I have to finish my preparations!

Touched!


Such a lovely surprise I got at the stage greeting event, not to mention those pretty flowers!

The happiest feeling is that everyone thought of me and surprised me!

I'm so touched!!

Thank you very much to everyone!!

Such prettily made flowers, thank you!

Thank You!


Thank you very much, all of you!

These few days I got to appear on various programs and a lot of celebrities (Is it really okay to say it like that?); met a lot of extremely talented people and those of them who got to see the movie gave it a lot of praise.

I'm moved that Chie's feelings as well as the strong feelings towards her from her lover, her father, her whole bereaved family and all of her friends, touched a lot of people's hearts.

Also, I'm not only touched that Chie's message has been firmly able to reach a lot of people, I am deeply touched!

Thank you for all of your lovely comments.

I hope that from now on Chie's message will continue to reach even more people.

Truly thank you very much. m(__)m

A White Parent and Child Dolphin


When I appeared on Hiru-Obi, I won the White Dolphin Quiz and got a white parent and child dolphin.

So cute~ (・∀・)

Thanks for all of your messages concerning the movie. m(__)m

The live broadcasts are ending by today.

The movie will be in the theaters for a while.
Please support it. m(__)m

I'll do a long trip now.
The wind is feeling good, doesn't it?

My Travel Companions


C1000 and iPod
Those are important (・∀・)
The weather has been nicely warm lately, so you body start to want too much C1000. (・∀・)

Izu


..is where I went for a photo shooting.
You can see the clouds and all, but I took this picture through the hotel window. It actually was a bit more brighter outside. (・∀・)

I've been thoughtless, because I so wanted to take a picture of that scenery.. (・∀・；)
The air feels great and the view is nice too, but I still prefer Tokyo!

Tsumiki no Ie


Today I was in Izu for the photo shooting, but then I got this great present!
This picture book is so adorable~!
On the DVD, Masami-chan is even narrating it!
Such a great story.
I got completely absorbed by it.
Memories are important, it says.

Note:
Tsumiki no Ie = "La Maison en petits cubes"; It's a Japanese animated short film that won an Oscar this year, so you might have heard of it already. The Masami-chan she mentioned above is no other than Nagasawa Masami. She does the narration in that short film.
