I’ve been recording.
Today, we did the recording for GEMINIDS ♪
It’s a complete change to what we’ve been doing up to now! It’s a cute song♪
There’s even duets, it’s a highly spirited song!!
I wonder if we’ll sing it at DA’s party~
Please wait out for it
Tomorrow onwards, I’m going abroad!
Everyone! Look after Japan for me, ne! ←what?
Since I’ll be crazy busy as this year is my 15th, I wonder if the next trip will be the FC MiniTora trip in May-June.
I’m excited for every ToraTora ♪
I’m able to talk a lot with everyone, I can feel the closest to you all then, ne.
As well as sight-seeing, there’s lots of things that we can experience together for a really precious time.
I can’t wait until the next fruit-picking♪
Next time too… maa, the number of those participating has also gotten high but, as much as possible I think I’d like to make time for only two people♪
Memories from the last trip.
Nagasaki.
We had Date-Time here, yo。
We had Free-Time at Fukushima Tower.
Everyone was chatting with each other at the rest stop.
This place is where I went around and toasted with everyone at the dinner party.
After this, I received some sake from my fans, so I’m a little bit drunk (laugh)
But… at this point, everyone participating still doesn’t know.
In the middle of the night, they were made to climb a mountain…
(laugh)
Seeing Nagasaki’s night view was a surprise after the mountain climbing (laugh)
The weather was also good, and the super night view was lovely.
Good memories♪

Hawaii Day 1
Winners of trips to Hawaii really do exist, da ne (laugh)
It’s the first time I’ve seen one (laugh)
Tomii-san, who I climbed Mt. Fuji with before, won a special prize, a trip to Hawaii, it didn’t suit his family or circumstances, so I’m taking advantage of this windfall that I have received.♪キラキラ
Is this the effect of the zodiac year!? (BGM: Monkey Majik)
I got leave from the office on the condition that I did a photoshoot there and came back (laugh)
So with that, It’s my first time in Hawaii♪
Waikiki Beach is just over there, I stayed at Waikiki Park Hotel which has an ocean view, yo♪
As for the morning, as it is, I went to an Izumo Temple in Hawaii.
I prayed that I’d be able to have a lot of memories of my 15th year.
I’m told the monetary offering is to be in dollars… without knowing much about the amount, I put in 1 dollar [1]
As I’m a man of the year, I bought a token.
Someday I have to go back and return it♪
I went back to Izumo Temple, and this time I chose the lucky option.
Afternoon tea.
This is a love restaurant with an ocean view♪
As it was afternoon tea, there’d be just cake and tea? That’s what I thought, but the extravagance & plentiful volume surprised me.
Although I’m a guy, this was the option more suited for girls (laugh)
Maa, it made me excited and I enjoyed it nonetheless (laugh) [2]
From evening to night, Tomii-san went out to jog, I went to the beach to write some lyrics as I enjoyed the setting sun.
The figure of the granny playing with her grandchild was very lovely, so I took a picture of their silhouette♪
[1] Kime, you’re too cute~ Though, why didn’t you check the rough estimate of the currency exchange?! You could’ve went to 20 shrines with that dollar, haha
[2] Kime used 俺 (ore) the really male version of saying “I”, instead of his usual 僕 (boku)

Hawaii Day 2
I woke up early to go on a bus around 1pm.
We went to Aloha Stadium.
This is where American football matches take place.
Today, high schoolers were practicing.
Around the studio, there was a large flea market taking place, so I bought some things.
It took about 30 minutes to walk around the whole studio.
There were a lot of stalls.
I bought some accessories while drinking coconut juice
From the bus that took us to Aloha Stadium, I could see Shinjuwan, also known as, Pearl Harbour.
I wonder if that’s a warship? It’s stopped.
In the afternoon, we went Segway-sightseeing♪
It was a magical moving object!!
The sightseeing was also super enjoyable!!
Here’s a parliament building that gives off the image of a volcano.
I’m told that this is like the National Diet Building in Japan.
As I heard it was different to the one in Japan, I explored it on a Segway.
We even went inside, yo.
The previous Queen-sama
Right in front of me, I saw a white house.
White sightseeing, we stopped by a Christian church, a palace and even a fire station.
The reason the fire engine and the fire hydrant are yellow, is to make it easy for those with colour-blindness to see.
From evening, I went to Honolulu’s Farmers Market.
Here is the main place for food.
There were various stalls, so I ate a lot for dinner (laugh)
The sugarcane juice was super delicious.
This place is right beside a concert hall…
A bronze statue of a star!!
Since I remembered about Stitch, I thought from the beginning I’ve been a Disney fan (laugh)

Hawaii Day 3
We woke up considerably early today as well, to climb a mountain to watch the sun rise as part of the Diamond Event.
I took a picture of the Diamond Event from where we stayed near Waikiki Beach.
the volcano! Well that’s what the mountain’s shape looks like
Even while climbing at the edge, it became easy to slide and slip.
Because it rained last night.
Because of last night’s rain, it seems that people cancelled one after another, so there was only a few people were okay to go climbing♪
It was surprisingly lucky♪
The weather’s great♪
Here’s a picture of where we stayed near Waikiki Beach from the Diamond Event ♪
There’s a lot of buildings!
After the mountain climbing, I selected option 2 for breakfast.
It’s the same restaurant I had the afternoon tea in.
In other words, of course girls-only menu (laugh)
You could choose from 6 types of pancakes, waffles, French toast, etc, I chose blueberry pancakes♪
Although it’s pure white, that’s the ocean view♪
The pancakes were full of blueberries in the middle, it was delicious♪
Then, let’s GO to Hanauma Bay!
Snorkelling♪
Because of the coral, the water is pretty, and a lot of fish are enjoying themselves swimming about♪
But, although I put on a really strong sunscreen, half of my back is burnt, Binbochama condition [1] (@_@)
By chance, we joined a tour that already had one group, I was surprised by the person playing the shamisen for a kabuki act.
That kind of fate exists
When I returned to the hotel, I was seriously exhausted.
Yesterday, on top of walking around the flea market, I climbed a mountain and snorkelled at Hanauma Bay.
Unveiling the steak of recovery. ←My second one in Hawaii
And like that, I continued writing some lyrics by the beach.
The setting sun was so pretty.
And that was the 3 days ♪
It was a lot of fun♪
As expected, the trip was good, there were lots of different fun things to do♪
May-June’s MiniTora trip wil also make lovely memories, naa♪
Definitely take part, ne♪
I also did a video photoshoot and a photo photoshoot, yo♪
A video of the Segway, Diamond Event, Do-mountain climbing, etc will be up on the fanclub website and it’ll be open to the public (^-^)/
Right! Waking up early tomorrow! Recording a new song!
Wish me luck!
[1] There’s an manga/anime called “Obocchama-kun” (Little Princeling) and the character, Taizou Binbo (nickname, Binbocchama) wears half-clothes. So his front image looks normal, but he’s naked at the back.

Boogie Woogie Star Wars Special
Boogie Woogie is over!
It was a Star Wars special♪
↑scary…
Kazuki~~~ Come Back!!!!!
Aiba-chan, I’m so grateful…
Buchou… Chubakka…
Prince… no way… unexpectedly, your fans... died
In the Boogie Woogie dressing room, I got the TetsuMyu report book from my manager, “from Aoharu-sensei…”♪
Sensei! Thank you so much for sending me this!
Since Buchou, the Boogie Woogie guest was there, we read it together.

Friend Event
The event is over!
Thank to everyone who participated!
Also, thank you to those who participated from various places outside Japan; China, Taiwan and Indonesia♪
How should I put it, what is this runaway train (laugh)
From the beginning, it was a seriously major incident.
Although, the second floor was mostly only adults.
It’s been a long time since we’ve sang any TeniMyu or TetsuMyu songs, it was fun~.

Konomi-sensei’s Live
After yesterday’s friend event ended, I had to make an extreme DASH!
I participated in the middle of Konomi-sensei’s live!
I have memories of Sensei and all of the seiyuu from my debut days and from when I did TeniMyu… the manga, the anime, TeniMyu… when I remember these various things, I get super teary-eyed.
If this piece of work wasn’t there, the present me wouldn’t exist, and perhaps I wouldn’t have met so many important people… [1]
TeniPuri Banzai!
Konomi-sensei, I’m forever grateful!
To Minagawa-san’s Ryoma-ko, to the long time no see Ogo-tan’s Ryoma, to Osamu-san, and also to Matsui-san and all the first-time staff, to the seiyuu who came to watch, and all the artists I got to meet, I’m beyond satisfied♪ [2]
I took Sensei’s invitation, and I participated in the closing party.
The live venue and Sensei were filled with the love and grateful feelings from all of the fans directed towards this piece of work, no it’s more than ‘love’, what’s the word again… The joy felt by Sensei (and all of the staff) was enveloped by the surprise
performance.
All because of the manga, anime musical and the music… a piece of work that’s loved even now is really rare so again I thought that it’s amazing.
I really happy to be able to be connected to such a piece of work.
[1] Don’t make me cry with such thoughts, Kime!!!
[2] He’s named a lot of people here; Minagawa Junko (voiced Echizen Ryoma in the anime), Ogoe Yuuki (6th actor to play Ryoma in TeniMyu), Osamu Adachi (played Ryoma in The Prince of Tennis film) and Matsui (not sure of his first name), but he’s a/the producer of The Prince of Tennis anime.
