4/26 Yukirin at Imoto no Wifi Event News Roundup

On April 26th, Yukirin and Mocchi went to Fukuoka to attend an “Imoto no Wifi” event. The special talk show event was to commemorate “Imoto no Wifi” opening in Fukuoka. The MCs were Goriken and Parachute Butai (comedian duo), aka GoriPara, and are part of Watanabe Entertainment. Before the event, 400 fans were invited to apply to be part of the event and the Imoto no Wifi Support Group. The mission was to take lots of pictures at the event and upload on to twitter with the hashtag: #イモトのWiFiのイベントに行ってきた #イモトのWiFi応援隊 And thus we got lots of pictures from the event! Osawa-san also posted a few pictures on his 755. During the event, it was announced that Kiss no Tabi 2 is in the final stages of planning and will likely air starting in July.  (Hurray!)   Photoset: 20150426 Yukirin tweeted that she received DVDs from GoriPara and can’t wait to watch them. 「ゴリパラ見聞録」のDVDもらっちゃったーー！！早くみたい。たのしみ。 pic.twitter.com/hmbdAGqySR — 柏木由紀 (@Yukiriiiin__K) April 26, 2015 Yukirin also updated her g+ today! https://plus.google.com/u/0/109547251260290757268/posts/XU2FRHK683S English Translation of g+: The Imoto no Wifi event was fun♪ The locals as well as those who went to Fukuoka, thank you so much^ ^ Mocchi and Me Somehow, we look like a rare combination don’t we~ Hehehe I’ll be going home after buying souvenirs~   Mocchi posted a few more pics on her twitter 東京に帰ってきました〜✈️ 今日のオフショット♡ #イモトのwifiのイベントに行ってきた pic.twitter.com/whEGl6XybE — 倉持明日香 (@asuka_k911) April 26, 2015 Random note..

Osawa-san 755 Posts about Yukirin & French Kiss (Eng Trans)

Osawa-san’s 755 can be found here: http://7gogo.jp/lp/sihx9XdJaR-WkVIvojdMdG== He has posted quite a few things regarding Yukirin and French Kiss. Below is a summary of all various points that he posted. It is not a full translation but rather the important points (in my opinion).   The important one is about Yukirin’s 3rd single: Regarding Yukirin’s 3rd single. Of course, preparatory meetings have begun. The first single happened with Mielino, the 2nd coincided with Zexy CM, gimmicks must be prepared but with consideration to the timing of AKB & NMB’s work. I have discussed with Yukirin since last year and her desires were written down in her own blog at New Year’s. For the 1st single & Mielino, I met with TV Tokyo about 8 months prior to the drama airing. For the Zexy collaboration, it was first discussed when my own company produced the Zexy CM with 30 talents proposing. Please understand that it is still in preparatory stages. I fully understand the feelings of Yukirin and Yukirin’s supporters. I hope to be able to continue along with the fans in continuing Yukirin’s dream.   Regarding French Kiss: 1. For those hoping for Kiss Tabi 2, both Kiss Tabi & Akicha’s radio show is sponsored by Imoto no Wifi’s service provider Xcom Global. I have been adviser for XCom Global for 3 years, helping with PR for Imoto no Wifi. So for the 2014 PR promotions, one of them was Kiss Tabi. For 2015, I have been in discussions with the president of Xcom Global. The general direction is that we will be doing Kiss Tabi again this year. There are of course various things and timings to consider but please look forward to Kiss Tabi 2. PS. Kuramochi & Kuramochi’s dad are also wanting to see it LOL 2. While French Kiss Premium Live from 10/22 was recorded, there are no current plans to release it on dvd. Considering releasing it as a bonus video. There are no current plans to release anything French Kiss related in the near future, but the bonus video will be included when there is a release. 3. About French Kiss’ album. November 2012, Akicha decided to go to JKT; February 2013, Yukirin solo debuted; May 2013, Kuramochi solo debuted. During these two years, you can see from other units’ activities that an album is a unit’s compilation. An album will be released when French Kiss reaches the point to do a compilation. I am relieved that French Kiss was able to do...

10/22 French Kiss Concert Yukirin News Roundup

On Wed, October 22, French Kiss held a special live at Zepp Tokyo in front 1,000 fans. Over 20,000 applications were submitted to attend the special live. The application came with the 「Omoidasenai Hana」 single. Yukirin has been sick the past week. She was forced to withdraw from the October 18 & 19 handshake events at Nagoya Dome. Yukirin mentioned on Monday that her fever was gone but her throat was still not well. It was highly unlikely that Yukirin would have recovered 100% for the concert.  Some Yukirin fans mentioned that during the MC, it was noticeable that Yukirin’s throat was still not well and that during the performances, Yukirin was not able to hit and hold the notes as well. French Kiss performed 18 songs total including encore. They only performed French Kiss songs. During the post live interview with the press, they joked about the rumour that they don’t get along. Yukirin mentioned that it was probably started by another subunit. Mocchi said it was probably Yuko. In the JIJI Press video, Akicha even mimicked Yuko. Setlist M01. Omoidasenai Hana M02. If M03.

Preview of Yukirin’s Solo Song from French Kiss Single (Updated)

Yukirin’s solo song on Type C of French Kiss 6th single “Omoidasenai Hana” was broadcasted on Yukirin Time. The lyrics are written by Yukirin and is titled 広い世界の中で出逢えたこと/Hiroi sekai no naka de deaeta koto (Was able to Meet You in this Big World) Of course, the song is a ballad!     9/16 Update Yukirin wrote this song with the idea of a love story formed by putting little events and memories together. Rough lyrics, not perfect but just to give an idea of what the song is about 広い世界の中で出逢えたこと Hiroi sekai no naka de deaeta koto 二人で過ごしたこの季節 This season that the two of us spent together あなたのいない日常に また強がってる Everyday without you I pretended to be tough たまにしか会うこともなくなって Even our infrequent meetings do not happen any more いつしか形だけの関係になっていた Without knowing, our relationship has become merely for formality’s sake 本当はあの時気付いてたの In truth, I already felt it at that time 目をそらし　気付かないふりしてた But I looked away and pretended not to notice it 広い世界の中で出逢えたこと I was able to meet you in this big world ただの偶然なんて思いたくない I don’t want to think it was by chance いつだってあなたの事だけ 愛してた I always only loved you 今はもう届かない Now, I can no longer...
