Good day... Sorry for the late update, I have so many things I want to write (>_<) Yesterday, my graduation kouen ended safely ☆ It was truly a moment of happiness....

I wore the dress of character I voiced Nagisa-chan, as she become the 14th gen Maeda Atsuko-san, replicate to perfection by wardrobe team, and they gave me the chance to sing [Yume no Kawa] together with all 12th gens 

It’s one my favorite song, so to sing it together with all my peer is the greatest pleasure。   

Maeda-san, and Maeda-san’s fans thank you so much (._.) Then the second song, also my favorite [Matenrou no kyori]。 Never had the chance to perform it in Mokugekisha kouen but in my harshest and painful moment I listen to this song。 [The spotlight on Broadway stage] That line always bolster me up, bring back my full energy！So as I wanted to end the show in a lighthearted mood, I chose this song。 And finally, the announcement of me joining Horipro。 I decided to join this industry watching works like Horipro’s [Peterpan], so for me this is like the first step towards my dream。 I want to try [Peterpan] someday …(._.)♡ Ganbarimasu！ This 5 years, I’ve had happy moments and harsh moments just as much。And I always have Iwata Family there with me。Also the support from everyone in my hometown。    

That’s how I made it this far。Thank you so much。   But the real challenge starts now。 Starting today, I can’t cling to anyone anymore, I’m walking on my own。  So when loneliness come, can I still rely on you？ I hope you will keep supporting me from now。 Yoroshikuonegaishimasu m(__)m

Thank you for 5 years I spent in AKB ！！！

Goodbye AKB48 Iwata Karen, welcome Horipro Iwata Karen :)

Now I need to download that graduation kouen. My first since almost 2 years probably, and my last lol.

Kayano Shinobu’s 755 on Iwata Karen graduation

Today at AKB48 theater, we held Iwata Karen graduation ceremony。 Karen is a girl with strong heart, always stick to her words, and a girl who knows how to put great effort。 Whether it’s her hardest moment, or fooling around, she always gave you enchanting performances with all her heart。   To see Karen adored by everyone, watching her peers came running over, listening to her parent’s letter, I think tonight’s ceremony has shown me how much Karen is beloved。 Honestly, watching her performed with everything she had in Takamina produced kouen and M.T Sasagu kouen recently, I almost forgot that she’s graduating soon, this young girl, I can’t wait to see where she’ll flap her wings from here。  

Karen, sotsugyo omedetou！

Today I had a solo event for Andare〜 

Very deep, that was very deep！ The best event！ Did all sort of things there！

And to everyone who stood outside under this cold weather just to draw lottery, thank you so much 😭 

So... how was it？ You guys had fun！？ Everything from the script, VTR making and directing, did them all myself！！！   This time I will put a picture of the character I will portray in the movie [Tono risoku degozaru!], Kokudaya Kayo！   Nearly no makeup！ww  They just made my skin a little bit darker！

Can’t wait for the premiere！

As everyone already knows, AKB will hold a graduation kouen for Iwata Karen on March 15, 2016. So with this post I just want to give a heads-up notice to all my followers that I will also stop updating this tumblr soon.

I’ve run this tumblr for what, three years now? Man I can’t even remember anymore. I forgot how it all started but I remember back then I just want to help Karen, this amazingly talented girl with gazillion charm and such unique character in the group, be more popular because back then even among the youngster she was struggling. I have one goal back then, to help her enter AKB senbatsu circle. The competition was tough, with more and more sister groups coming. Join senbatsu means less spot for AKB young guns and she’ll need every help possible. So yeah, I tried. But we all know where that goal ended, aren’t we now. Not even one sousenkyo spot geezzz (Hold on, now that I think of it, if only she hadn’t announce graduation 9gag could use new material after Leo’s Oscar, lmao). But it’s okay now, I’ve made my peace with that one. Life doesn’t always work your way, it is what it is.

Also halfway through the journey this place became pretty much a dead blog, I fully realized that and that’s on me, I’m sorry. Part of the reason probably because I have decided to put some distance, or you can say dissociate myself from anything AKB, I guess? I stopped listening the music, watching the MVs, downloading LODs. And I remember what triggered it. The SKE transfer offer. The one that also led to more concurrent members and Nogizaka girl got transferred to AKB, if I’m not mistaken. Boy I was maaad. Soooo stupid, that’s how I thought back then. I’m a huge supporter of 12th & 13th gen, put yourself in my shoes you’ll understand. So nowadays I only follow the huge ones. Like big names graduation or sousenkyo/janken winner. Completely out of touch with everything else. I don’t know the title of their newest singles or how it sounds, or what’s the youngest generation they have now? Oh oh, I do know they involved the legendary kami members in their singles again though. ROFL. Godammit Aki-p, that’s soooo WWE (I swear Aki-p and Vince McMahon must be gym buddies  XD -- wrestling fans will understand  :p).  

Aaaanyway, I would like to thank all my followers, every single one of you. When I started this I never expect even 20, let alone this many. I mean 500? Yikess! So that means I’ve successfully brainwashed some of you with Karen’s awesomeness, yayy!! Oh oh, and I do hope many of you will stay and support the girl post AKB. She has twitter now you can go there, surely she will stay active.  I won’t though, I’m completely retiring from idols (too old for this...). I want to believe that in the future she’s gonna become someone. I think she has all the arsenal. Not many AKB graduates have those, Karen imo is among the few so she’ll do just fine. Be it acting, musical, singer, voice act or whatever path she chose, pray she’ll find success. Now, to close this stupidly long post, Imma quote what a wise girl once said, that the flower will bloom someday, yes they will.

Iwate prefecture citizen hall live event has ended〜！！！ Surely this will be my last chance to sing for disaster area residence as AKB member, so I’m glad I could come today！！！  They gave me the honor to center the charity song [Tenohira no kataru koto]。 I had the chance to MC a bit before the start, and as I stood there before everyone’s eyes, with too many words of gratitude I want to say, I just cried。   Was hoping I could finish everything with a smile.... I’m sorry (/ _ ; ) But that shows what my hometown meant for me, irreplaceable place。 And the warm welcome from everyone each time we visit, I love them。 Then after the event, Kiba-san and the leader of Yamada city diorama group handed me a thank you letter！！ Everyone kept rewriting it over and over, she said (´ ; ω ; `) I’m so happy to accept such letter。 Also also, tomorrow they will broadcast [Karen no Fukkou Calendar 2016 Spring]！ NHK-G 22:35~22:45 JST！ Can’t believe I’m on TV twice within just three days T_T

Even after I graduate AKB, [Fukkou Calendar] will keep running, so to pray for the continuation of the program, I hope everyone keep following the show！！！！

[Dance senbatsu kouen] doneーーー！！！！ Everyone who watched！！ How was it！？Did I look cool！？！？ The setlist itself was awesome, and we had all the best members 😭 We’ve grown so close together during the lesson for this kouen, so to be separated after this saddens me（ ; ; ） To be selected in a lineup called [dance senbatsu] is truly an honor for me。

As I trained, and saw all these great dancers everywhere around, I kept saying to myself I still have long way to go, but at the same instant I realized dancing together with them is so much fun,  and improving myself through friendly competition, to become even better during this lesson, is the best harvest for me My head already about to collapse after just three songs ww, but somehow I managed to dance till the very end！！ It was a blast！！！ Although I love dancing so much, but they rarely picked me for dance senbatsu for concerts, it’s like I have this [Rather than dance, Karen is singing] image, I do appreciate such thoughts but it is also mortifying. Now I have the privilege of doing something that I hold as pride 2, 3 years ago！   I will never forget this day！！！

Takamina-san thank you so much！！😭
