Aqours 4th Live ~Sailing to the Sunshine~ Pamphlet: Aida Rikako
Right before I stand on stage, my heart always beats from nervousness! Surely this is a sign of my love for everyone ♡
I remember my nervousness and excitement from my first live. With my initial resolution, I’ll do my best!
“I’m happy to have met Aqours”
I hope everyone can feel that way too.
Thank You, FRIENDS!! is a song that etches all our bonds and feelings into our hearts, and expresses our thanks to everyone who has watched over us so far…
Tokyo Dome is the venue this time! What are your impressions and memories of it?
In the past, I’ve been to Tokyo Dome to see artists I liked. Looking at all those people I looked up to having lives in Tokyo Dome, I still can’t believe that we, Aqours, were also given a chance to perform there. On the day of the performance, I’m sure that I won’t know how to feel until I actually get on stage.
Aqours’ hometown is Numazu ☆ What kind of place is it?
You can call it a lot of things, but for us, it’s our second home. Because we’ve gotten to know it so well, even though it’s only been a short period of 3.5 years, every time I return, I’ve always felt a warm feeling of “I’m back”.
Tell us a memory from Numazu!
For a magazine shoot, Anchan (Inami Anju), Suwawa (Suwa Nanaka) and I went diving, which has really stuck with me. In the first season of the anime, Riko-chan descended into the ocean together with Chika-chan and the others to hear the sound of the sea. It was scary at first, but I’m glad that I got to experience the same thing she did.
What would you give to Riko-chan as a surprise present?
Riko-chan loves to write music, so I want to give her a song that I composed myself too! (Even though I’ve never composed a song myself, and I also can’t read sheet music either…)
I still can’t believe that it’s been 4 years since I first met Riko-chan and the rest of Aqours. To me, Riko-chan is someone who I will always look up to. She is cute, gentle, and supportive of everyone else, someone who I want to become and chase after. Before I had realized, I had met a lot of new people. All the people supporting us, the staff giving us a hand, and my fellow members of Aqours… I kept on acquiring more things that I held dear to me. Then, there was also the anime and all the songs, which I learned a lot from.
“This time will never repeat, so let’s enjoy this time to the fullest. (Yoshiko in S2E11)
We all know that the end will someday come. But even so, tomorrow will still come. (Riko in S2E11)”
It’s something that sounds obvious, but it’s also easily forgotten. That was an important fact that I kept on learning over and over again. Knowing this, I believe that we won’t be able to lose to anyone else in radiance.
We first started from Mielparque Hall, then moved on to Yokohama Arena. Before we knew it, we arrived at Tokyo Dome. To everyone who ran together with us so far, thank you very much!
I hope you will continue to watch over us closely from now on.
I’ll work hard so that “today” will become an unforgettable day in everyone’s life ♡
