Thanks to @speranzom for help with the translation of the Showroom summary from https://jbbs.shitaraba.net/bbs/read.cgi/music/29852/1596542732/ for 12/31 (Thursday).
- Riko’s tweet
- Yoshikawa Yasuo, Maho’s co-star, retweets MAQUIA
- The AKB Cafe, which had said it was relocating when it withdrew from Akihabara last year, has a grand opening in Fujian, China.
- Ogino talks on Showroom about how at the beginning of this year she was feeling disheartened.
- “At the beginning of this year I just had no idea anymore about matters — Aaah, so yes, that was in January… There was the TDC concert, and Request Hour, it was supposed to be extremely fun and joyful, but instead I ended up feeling like «It’s all hopeless already!». No matter what I try doing, it was all to no use, myself — that’s how I ended up feeling. (at 53:00)
- “Even when I would perform theater shows, the penlights looked like batons to me — «Get out! Get out!», it felt to me as if I were being told. «After all I am a good for nothing», I thought, and had no self-confidence.”
- “For this reason, even at the time of the Showroom competition events, I was thinking that even if I would take part in them there were no longer people to support me fervently.”
- “Is there anyone who’s supporting me with a passion? — I had to wonder…”
- “What with the results being something that I could see with my own eyes, having to end up being depressed about it, having it feel even more painful — I found those thoughts unpleasant, quite a bit. Since it had the risk of making me feel even more down, I felt conflicted about that… the Showroom competition events, all those things.”
- “But even so, it was from there, right, that I regained [my old feelings] again. Since all of you had worked really hard. Although when it comes to gift-based stuff, that’s a little bit hard to say, actually.”
- “With that, everyone allowed me to stand on stage at the TDC concert. So I am still here — it had me feeling very intensely…”
- “When I stop to think right now about how that changed me so greatly, I can feel that very intensely now.”
- “I could feel it… I could really feel it… That thing, again.”
- “I could still perceive strongly that there are people around who are supporting me, like that”
- “With that, I got confidence back in myself. There at that point I picked myself up. Just a little bit at at time.”
.
- “Whatever was happening, at any time, JUNON, and only JUNON, has alwaaays been there standing close to me” (at 1:07:50)

- “荻野由佳(YUKA OGINO) 2020/12/30 19:29”
Note: I try to repeat the Japanese thread as closely as possible here. Where I do make some editorial additions I’ll put them in [ ], though I do occasionally soften the posters’ tone.
Why is this here? My original announcement
