+ Mirror shot: they didn't plan to put it in the photobook at first
+ Umbrella shot: the most fun, Nemoto-san took it when she was playing with the umbrella
+ The third 2 shots she chooses, close-up shot: staff + manager-san + Nemoto-san discussed and it's the shots showing the face of her when she's laughing
Nakajima-san informs Maachan that her pics signing her photobook uploaded on SNS got many likes and it shows how much fans are excited for her photobook
-> Maa: Ah, I feel embarrassed. I just want to say...Thank you all!
Nakajima-san asks if there were any episode during the photoshoot
Maachan says they went to eat ice cream and the pic of her with ice cream was taken during private time, somehow it's put in the photobook.
The ramen shot as well, it was taken when she wasn't aware of
Nakajima-san says that members, her senpai & kouhai also released photobook... (he means the swimsuit shot)
-> Maachan: Ah, right, like Ayumin...they all wear swimsuit properly...
-> Nakajima-san: Is there any swimsuit shot in your photobook?
-> Maachan: No, there isn't
-> Nakajima-san: Is there any reason for it??
-> Maachan: It would be embarrassing if my mom and dad can see it~ People in the company as well, people that I know and people that know about Masa, if they see it, it would be very embarassing
Nakajima-san says there are fans who were looking forwards to her swimsuit shot
-> Maachan: Really? I'm really sorry

Maachan's interview in her photobook handshake event - Part 2
Nakajima-san: This production... did you discuss this with your friends or your senpai?
- Maa: No, I didn't. When this work was decided, I kept it silent. However, you know, we all received Morning Musume monthly schedule and there's a firmly line writing "Sato Masaki's photobook shooting"... It made me feel embarrassed! At that time, I just wanted to use the correction tape to erase that line
- Nakajima-san: You don't like people knowing about this
- Maa: Yes, it's embarrassing
- Nakajima-san: But with this (photobook release), you don't feel shy very much?
- Maa: Well, how to say it... this shyness is like when someone ask you "what is your underwear's color today?" It makes you shy, right...when you are asked such question, you will of course find way to escape and be like "um~ no..."
- Nakajima-san: When you're on stage, people is watching you and you seem totally fine with it... but things like this (photobook), you're not good at it, right?
- Maa: During the LIVE, I also feel shy when they take photo of me.
Nakajima-san: Who do you want to see this photobook?
- Maa: I want people who have known me from the past to see it.
How to say it... It's like I want to say thank you to them...
Well, I'm the type that is not good at interacting with fans in handshake events. At those times, I couldn't show my gratitude to them properly so this photobook is like the repayment for the kindness I've been received from them.
- Nakajima-san: How about your parents?
- Maa: I won't show them
- Nakajima-san: And Tsunku-san?
- Maa: I don't think he's interested in it. Does he know about this? I don't know, I don't know if he knows about this or not but if he asked me "You released it?" then I will sign & write "To Tsunku-san..." and then give it to him properly
But I think he's very busy, I don't think he knows about this
- Nakajima-san: I think it'd be better if you send this to him through Hawaii postage delivery
- Maa: Really? He won't hate it?
- Nakajima-san: No, no.. cuz photos of you like eating ramen and such... such photos of you can't be seen normally, right
- Maa: Tsunku-san... won't he be like "Where should I put it in my house?"...
- Nakajima-san: No, I don't think so
- Maa: Really~ well I will think about this later...
Nakajima-san: How many copies should be sold that you think it's good?
- Maa: I think 10 copies is good!
- Nakajima-san: But you know, there are a lot of fans lining up outside now
- Maa: *look at the staff* So how many?! So since it's (MM.')18 then 18 copies or 19 copies is ok!
- Nakajima-san: But there're so many people out there...
- Maa: But I'm satisfied with just 19 copies... please don't sell more than that!!
Maachan asked Nakajima-san which photos he likes then gave him the photobook
-> took the mic to let him see it
-> talked by herself saying what have she done that day:
Today, in the morning we gathered at 9:10 and had a recording for YouTube then I went to karaoke.
I came back changing the outfit then went to karaoke again. After that I went to beauty salon and came here!
I haven't have dinner yet so the staff gave me some wheat chocolate and there are a lot of chocolate on taxi now, it made me surprised~ ~
-> Maa: Have you found it yet? What's your favorite?
-> Nakajima-san: This one, you look like a princess
-> Maa: I wanted to born as a princess... well actually, like the queen of ants
-> Nakajima-san: Why? *laugh*
-> Maa: Isn't "Queen of ants" so cool? *laugh*
Nakajima-san: I had been begging them to come here today... thank you so much for taking the interview
-> Maa: No, no~ I want to say thank you as well...
-> Maa: Do you think I've changed?
-> Nakajima-san: No, I don't think so
-> Maa: Really? Have I lost my glow? What do you think?
-> Nakajima-san: No, I think you have it enough!
Nakajima-san: Please say something as a propaganda for your photobook
-> Maa: This is the way I show my gratitude to people who have become Masa's fans, people who wear Masaki T-shirt and hold Masaki towel, who always come to me at handshake events
...there were times I was unfriendly and pretty cold, also there were days my spirit was too high... well I'm a moody person so I think I've hurt you sometimes...
With this, I filled all my gratitude in these photos... as a present and as a way of showing my gratitude, I hope everyone who is Masaki's fan will see it!
..............
A fan got Maachan's sign poster and Maachan has done it half-way LMAO
It becomes "Masal"

Oh this is just the sweetest! We know Maa is actually considerate but this exceeds my expectations! That she actually thinks like a PB is a thank you gift to fans bc of how moody she is at times is such a professional way to put it!
Also I bet she's right that Tsunku wouldn't know what to do with a PB of the girls if he doesn't ask for it himself. That man surely saw enough PBs in his life. Where to but such a book with half-gravure in it in a household with your wife and children? Rather than a PB I bet he's happy she's talking so much about him publicly.
- Thanks to Sato Masaki-san, Morning Musume's wotaku all become rices today! (x)
- Then she explained why she calls the fans rice
川* ^_〉^)<I called you guys here rice, right? Somehow I see you as rice today! Rice can be cooked right? It becomes warm and it pops. Ah~ that's popcorn. Anyways, what i want to say is when Masaki uses spray for my bangs and it got into my eyes, everything turns white! And your heat and enthusiasm today makes me feel like that!
i have a question for every maa chan oshi, when or what moment did sato become your oshi? mine was during the '14 aki tour during wagamama her big line, the smile she had at the end trapped me haha
At first I didn't give her much thought......after all, there was Ayumi the dancer, Haruna the babe and Haruka the experienced Egg.
Then when she showed up on MaiMai's YT webcast and played drums and piano, I went "Whoa! I think we've got something here!" and have been fascinated with her since.
