[Translation] 100% SKE48 vol.1 Kumazaki Haruka

Here goes interview with Kuma-chan. It’s shorter than other interviews because this is only additional to her gravure. (same as Ruka’s interview which will be the next one)

Kuma is one of the next aces of SKE, please support her.

*note: the interview was done before general election last year*

Kumazaki Haruka who is dancing under spotlight,

Looks like she’s glowing, sparkling vigorously

But when she get down from stage, standing in the midst of beautiful light of sunset

It seems she also has another kind of charm

 - (after photo shooting finished) Kumazaki-san is really pretty.

Kuma: Not at all…thank you.

- Previously, Kumazaki-san’s photograph was always cute, lively girl. So, this time we would like to shoot something that fans have never seen before, like adult woman.

Kuma: I like the calm feeling in this shooting. It made me want to stay in Tatami room (shooting location) *laugh*

- That’s so *laugh* Actually, there’s also another reason why we invited you to shooting this time…

Kuma: What is it?

- It may be a bit impolite but we think that you are “top member who will inherit SKE48, build a new SKE48”

Kuma: Heh? You mean after Sae-san and Rena-san graduated last year?

- Yes. We are glad that you understand. To be honest, how is SKE48 right now? In Miyazawa (sae) graduation concert, Jurina said “SKE48 is in a pinch now”…How bad is it?

Kuma: It’s critical point. Actually, since Rena-san graduated, everyone thinks like that. Though everyone thinks like that but no one would say it…Jurina-san brought it out.

- Before that, you guys have tried to get around it all along?

Kuma: Not exactly. It’s just we were afraid to accept it. But once I heard those words, I thought “ah..that’s true” and realized the worry that has been in my mind all along.

- After you realized this feeling, did your perspective change?

Kuma: Yeah. After realized the truth, all members started to do something for SKE48. At the same time, fans who heard Jurina-san’s words also said “It’s alright, we are still here beside you” Again, we have to thank to fans’ support. We also know that these supports are our driving force.

- Reporters from our department at the concert also know it! SKE48 is the group that fans really love. However, compare to other groups, expectation is also higher. You need to show them the new SKE48. Kumazaki-san, do you want to lead everyone there?    

Kuma: I personally would like to. From now on, SKE48 is up to everyone’s personality.

- Personality. That’s right, the persons who are getting attention now are (Kitano) Ruka and Yumechi (Noguchi Yume)

Kuma: the names you mentioned are all 6th gen and me, too. *laugh* Ruka recently has lots of gravure. Yumachi’s blog is also very interesting. (Kamata) Natsuki also got 2nd rank from P4U mobile game. Everyone is trying their best. When we 6th gen had dinner together, we talked and concluded that everyone would rank in the next general election “create our own tidal wave, plan to have medias compete with one another to publish ‘6th gen special issue’, push SKE48 further forward!” *laugh* 6th gen is so solidified right now.

- 6th gen is doing a great job but the one who is outstanding the most would be Kumazaki-san. You got into “Chicken LINE” Senbatsu and you also wrote the blog about “the story of Kumazaki Haruka has just begun”

Kuma: I fell from stage at AKB48 group’s Haru con, my right wrist was broken…I came back to handshake event in “Mae shika mukanee” single and entered “Bukiyou taiyou” Senbatsu. But actually, I was very worried. I was afraid it would be the last.

- Had broken bones, made a comeback, entered Senbatsu for the first time, didn’t make it to next Senbatsu and entered Senbatsu again this time…every time, there must be anxiety.

Kuma: That’s right. In order to wipe these anxieties off, I need to think “I am at the starting line on the edge of a cliff all the time”

- ‘at the starting line on the edge of a cliff’ sounds like you are very brave *laugh* so, lastly, please show your eager to fight in coming general election that will be held on Jun.18!

Kuma: I am gonna rock the world!

- please be specific a bit *laugh*

Kuma: Top 20! My goal is Undergirls

- Looks really enthusiastic.

Kuma: In fact, I want to say “Senbatsu” but I don’t see much probability…so I choose Undergirls instead, judging from ranking.

- If you could really get into Senbatsu?

Kuma: I have been chasing after Jurina-san for all along. When that time comes, I would want her to feel the pressure like “She is catching up with me”

My Tomo-Chan stuffie. I "threw" him at Daddy last night and had to apologize for it 😝 but we are all made up this morning and watching our favorite movie (Beauty and the Beast) (yes, I know his name is technically Kuma-Chan bc he is from Ouran High School Host Club but I like the name Tomo-Chan better so I renamed him)
