ya, it is ashamed not the whole package. Maybe she wanted to be a surprise because she brought the old team K members to sing the song.

[drahzaar]

Well who knows it could still pop up again on the next single but I'm fine with it how it is.  The green glow sticks her fan club handed out to everyone at the dome turned out to be amazing, well done.  Her graduation wasn't extravagant like her riding in a carriage or in a balloon or whatever but it looked to have even more impact the way they did it  .  From the fan reports it sounded like management really went all out that day so I'm really happy about it.  We still have her stage graduation coming up as well  , it aint over.

Congratulations on your graduation Sayaka! She looks good in her modeling picks, way to go! I do wish she got a PV though!

[pink-ku]

 

Translation:

Sayaka: [laughs] “Congratulations” (which Yuko apparently managed through tears x3)

 

Sayaka: Is Yuko-san crying for me?
Yuko: I wanna stay close to you though…
Sayaka: I’m right here!!

Sae: I dunno, I’m actually really happy with Sayaka’s graduation ceremony.  I’m really happy.

Yuko: It was a good graduation ceremony.  But… after all, it’s lonely.

Sayaka: Besides feeling lonely, etc… it felt more like, “this is really happiness, huh.”  I think there were more people smiling than crying.

Sayaka: (in regards to Yuko) I want to do more dumbass stuff with her.  If you can think of anything, definitely tell me.
Staff: Well, there’s Oshima-san’s Corteo…　(as in, the Cirque du Soleil show)
Yuko: [IMMEDIATELY BUSTS INTO CORTEO MUSIC]
Sayaka: If it’s Oshima (?? SOMETHING, can’t catch the next word) then she can do anything.
Yuko: [LEAPS ONTO SAYAKA]
Sayaka: WAIT… THE DRESS THOUGH…
Yuko: YAY
Sayaka: …Something like that!
Yuko: Whoa, we managed the rebirth of Corteo!
Sayaka: Yeah, we did.  We managed Corteo in this dress.
Yuko: [climbs under and pops out of Sayaka’s dress]
Sayaka: Okay that wasn’t Corteo, that was birth.
Yuko: Mmhmm, birth.

Mother and child...  

[vutt]

Aren't you guys little bit hasty with thread suffix? She still has to perform at least 3 performances as AKB member. 2 in AKB theater and 1 with Team K on Fuji TV summer festival on 27th.

Hahaha, I love this video! Sayaka and Yuko are so adorable together! I want to see more things like this, don't leave Sayaka! Who will Yuko be craxy with without you?

 

Thanks for the translation Pink-ku!

[dev-null]

Wonder why they cut the funny bit at the end in the official broadcast

[drahzaar]

Thanks for everything and for bringing me into akb~

It was really nice, they all seemed sad but very happy   .  When they were chanting "sayaka" during sougen it was awesome.

 

 

 

[Krusha]

Baaaaaaaahhh! I actually forgot to watch this live on Nico! Hope someone can upload the LOD on the tracker.

But yes, thanks for everything. Sayaka truly cemented herself as one of the best idols of all time. Truly strong in all aspects, be it dancing, singing, performing, variety TV, effort, leadership, teamspirit, whatever really.

My one regret is that we never got to see Sayaka vs. KONAN - in an epic physical battle of Who is the Real Gorilla of 48G?

[TheFicusWithSuperPowers]

It's somehow sad that there will be no more Mushi no Ballad singer. NEVER. NO ONE will ever sing that song same way!! T_T.

Sae-chan.

 

infact she poured her heart out the next day sing the song (see concert thread for pictures).

[TheFicusWithSuperPowers]

^ that's what I said.

no one CAN sing that song except Sayaka.

[hitoyou]

That performance during Request Hour 2013 was so freaking awesome. OMG I get severe goosebumps every time I watch it.

This song was made for her and it fits her to 100% perfection. 

 

Girls will have to make it into their song to give it justice, not try to imitate her. So Sae's version will be an interesting experience according to what was written above.

 

 

 

Darn... I need to watch her graduation stage to get a closure

[masguas]

What's Sayaka's make for AKB48: Yokoyama Team A, Oshima Team K, Umeda Team B, Minegishi Team 4. All Hail Captain of Captains!

[IdolLoverHisame]

Does anyone know how many theater performances Sayaka had participated in in total? I would like to compare how many she did with how many Hirajima Natsumi did.

[Krusha]

Oh man that's an interesting question. I hope someone knows total of both and could give us the stats

[☆RisaReinaSayu☆]

^^ Well I'm not sure how many Sayaka did but on the stage48 wiki it says Hirajima had 766 by December 4th 2010.

Akimoto Sayaka to star in upcoming film "Dorei-ku" (District of Slavery). The film will portray acts of sadomasochism, violence, sexual content. No info about whether Sayaka will be involved in those scenes, at least not yet.

 

There is a pic from the film in which Sayaka appears to be smoking.
