I actually expected these videos the moment she said in her livestream before that she doesn't want to talk about Morning Musume now that she's graduated. I understand her good intentions, but sometimes the results can be double-edged. She's also smart to leverage on social media for things like this as she can actually get ad revenue from her videos, and I thought she would allow in-video advertisements and/or endorsements, if possible, in the future.

 

Maybe, a bit, UFP needs to change to accommodate situations like Haachin's. Maybe create a subsidiary for social media/YouTube personalities only -- they're not really celebrities who have entered showbiz, but rather normal everyday people that amassed a huge number of following on social media and can make an influence one way or another. That way, Haachin can still be protected both as a content creator and as a former Morning Musume member.

I don't really understand what you would expect from UP Front for people that opted out of their contract and aren't affiliated with them?

1. Is there any chance Haachan might become a Ray model? That would be cool, she could work with Airi.

2. There will always be haters but YT shouldn't be making it easy.......don't they have community standards?

3. I interpreted Maachan's blog entry as coming to her defense, basically saying whatever she did was cool as long as she was happy. Haachan responded with an Insta post that merely said I AM HAPPY.

4. And, yes, since she is no longer contracted to UFP there is no obligation on the company to protect her.

Contract or no contract, it's a matter of courtesy with their former employer, whose group they manage she has ties with, is still active. 

 

Haachin didn't want to put Morning Musume in a negative light when she resumed her SNS activities as a private individual. 

 

She mentioned she asked UpFront for permission if she can set up her own SNS accounts, and they're ok with it. In a way, she's still affiliated and in good terms with the company.

 

The idea of UFP getting into this was just a business suggestion if they want to utilize on individuals using newer technologies and get revenue -- girl wanted to start a new life without mentioning much of her group but it backfired for the same reason.

They could've leveraged on the idea that you can get almost the same opportunities with online personalities -- a matter of expanding their coverage the moment she asked if she can set up her SNS.

Sorry for the double post. New video

 

 

Things I understood from the get-go:

  • She went to Harunan's graduation concert ('18 AUTUMN - GET SET GO), which was the last MM concert she went to
  • She started editing photos and videos in her phone, but bought a MacBook and started to learn Final Cut Pro for her YouTube channel. She's basically self-taught all along
  • There was something with the MM color she had -- it was something about giving hope with white and blue, and so she got Sea Blue
  • She's 160cm, not 157 as previously published
  • Favorite drinks: Kalhua Milk (liquor?), Corn Tea, Oolong Tea
  • There's someone who asked if she does this for money but I can't understand it.

Idk if these are accurate since I'm just transcribing with what's available aside from my very limited Japanese. Thanks to YouTube translate and Google Translate lol

I'm so happy for her.  She looks very happy doing what she likes.  You can tell she's having fun while doing these videos.  Besides, there's nothing wrong with someone having a hobby.

Favorite drinks: the question was about alcoholic drinks, plus she mentioned she basically likes coctails and doesn’t really like beer.
Whether is she doing YT for money: she says that if it was for money she would be introducing weird products or anything offered all along. Which clearly is not what her channel is about, so nope she is not doing it for money or having sponsors.

What she was saying about the colors were, somebody asked if there was a different color she would have wanted in MoMusu.  And when she joined she told mangement that she wanted white or light blue, so she got exactly what she wanted.

 

More specifically than "cocktails" is that overall she likes sho-chu in (assorted kinds of) tea.


What I've learned about Japanese so far, is that you must first pay attention to these 2 things: Rule #1 and Context. After that, just pray they remember their high-school English class.

Thanks for the translations. Haruna was basically under-use during her times in MM. This girl has so much potential, I can see her doing really well in the variety shows.

But I am glad she is using the social media platform to her advantage. And I am glad that she is able to and decided to talk about her days in H!P from now on. I mean we all know her from there and so does most of her followers. It does feel a little "forced"/"deliberate" not to talk about it even though I understand her original intentions.

And I am also glad she went to Harunan's graduation concert.

She is pretty adamant that she's not trying to restart her show business career.  Though I agree she would have been a good member of the peanut-galleries they used to use heavily in Japanese variety TV.

Is that even her? She resembles her... I can't read japanese, but if I didn't see this pictures posted here, I would never think it is Haachin.

The editing is so heavy, she looks completely CG.
