Meru here。
Everyone, it was announcement on HKT48’s official site。
I have the privilege of being in Senbatsu for our 4th single「Hikaeme I love you!」。
It’s thanks to all of you!
I really thank you very much。
I won’t be on the center position, that I had the privilege of standing on until now。
I couldn’t keep up with the skill of that position。
I am lacking in ability。
Of course, realizing that makes me sad
But I think it would have been bad if everything had stayed as it was。
The things I didn’t understand when I was center。
All the things I couldn’t see until now, as well as the things I didn’t notice before,
I realized that taking a step back gives me new things to grow on。
I received a chance for growth。
There are also thing I don’t understand yet, but I think that I have to take this as an opportunity for me to take a look at myself to improve。
Even if the steps aren’t straight, I am going to work harder than before, so that I can take a next step on this spiral staircase!
So that I won’t stop。。
So that my dreams can become true,
I won’t forget the things I said while standing where I am now。。。
HKT48 is a group of constant change。
And for that sake, both the Senbatsu members as well as the positions have changed。
To make it a strong group、
to keep aiming even higher。
To the newly made Senbatsu members, Kanon-san, Jiina, Sae-chan, Maochan,
congratulations。
And the center is Haruppi!
My Senpai, who has experienced many times more the frustrations that I have。
I could see it all from up close。
And even so, she would still support me,
and because of that I was able to stand as a center。
Now I want to become more reliable myself,
so that I can become a support as well。
I once again realized how grateful I am for the things I was blessed with,
and from now on I want to think even more about our group。
To all of you that are always kindly rooting for me,
it’s because you are there that I can be strong。
I hope that you are going to continue to support Tashima Meru。
This is the fireworks we saw on the evening we shot the MV,
it was really beautiful。
