Mother's birthday

Teruki is writing. On day's before yesterday evening I came back to Sendai.

My sister is also living in Tachikawa,she came to home with her 1 year old daughter. So Nagata's house became really lively☆

I know it's a little late,  but we went to neighbour's shrine yesterday. It took 1 hour to walk .

It was cold with heavy snow and wind. (´ω｀;)

It was nostalgic to walk while listening to songs.

Also, today was my mother's birthday. We all 3,we went to Matsushima onsen. 

Yesterday TV and newspapers were talking about Awaji Earthquake.

I was middle school student at that time. It happened on South Niigata,it felt like different world to me.

Also, I went skiing that day. During The the Great East Japan Earthquake I couldn't contact my family. I went to Arahama because there were acquaintances, cafekko who passed away.

When we see disasters and accidents on Internet and TV everyday,little by little you start to think that it's not person's business ,but when I saw photos of Awaji earthquake on Yahoo top page, I felt different feelings. 

Although I haven't been in band during middle school,now I'm adapted to this kind of job. We performed in Kansai many times. I thought " During Awaji earthquake a lot of people passed away, between these people there could be cafekko,there could be people which are involved with our work" .

It's similar with eruption of Ontake-san Traffic accidents  are happening everyday.

You can't know what can happen .

Thinking like that,we can't worry about small things,can we?

In order to die without regretting anything,isn't life about doing important things and things you love ?

We don't know when we will die.

Live as you like！

You can abandon something, escape from many things,but I don't say you have to live irresponsible life.

Do things you like,cherish important things and have responsibility！

I want to properly "Do your best by enjoy doing thing you love" . 

I think I have changed by thinking like that.

There is great weather in Sendai☆ Although it's cold outside, if you have sunshine inside it will be almost hot (*^ω^*)

I hope you enjoyed translation! There can be some mistakes(I'm not perfect translator) . You can freely share this translation with credit of course!

NEW AC Look !!

Sakurai Takemasa straipnis apie AC

Self-professed otaku, Kanon, loves his anime just as much as the next person.

Globally popular J-rock band, Antic Cafe (An Cafe), held their comeback concert at Yoyogi National Gymnasium (Tokyo, Japan) on the 8th and 9th of September 2012, and it was a smashing success. I was once again reminded how great it is to be a part of such an event where everyone comes together as one. 
A few days after their concert I had the opportunity to interview two of the band members who also composed many of the songs on the group’s latest album, “amazing blue,” bassist, Kanon, and guitarist, Takuya. I asked them for their thoughts on their comeback performance.

Kanon “I’m still on a high from it. I got the fan letters that all the Cafekko brought to the show a few days later and read them all. I received messages saying, “Thank you for coming back!” and informing me what has been happening during our absence. It seems everyone has been working hard. It really inspired me.”

Takuya “It was a concert that we were excited to perform and it really was a lot of fun. Doing “Nyappy” with the entire audience and joking around, emceeing with the other members – it reminded me what it feels like to be on stage.”

During the band’s hiatus, I’ve met countless Cafekko from all over the world. I’ve probably met with more fans than the members themselves (the ones living overseas at least). While I consider the An Cafe boys to be good friends, I also consider the world’s Cafekko to be friends and supporters of cross-cultural diplomacy as well. 
From November this year, An Cafe are doing a one month tour of Europe and Central and South America. Out of the blue one time, I wondered which An Cafe songs are everyone’s favorites, so I decided to send out a tweet and find out. In no time at all I was flooded with replies and it sunk in just how loved this group is.

Takuya works as a guitarist and composer outside of An Cafe as well.

Kanon “I would like to be able to greet the fans in their own language when we go on our world tour. And we don’t get to do these tours very often, so I would like to play the songs that everyone wants to hear if possible too.”

Takuya “I’m going to greet the fans with “tadaima” (“I’m home”), so it would be awesome if I could get everyone to reply “okaeri” (“welcome back”) as well. The way that the Cafekko get into our concerts overseas is different to the way the Japanese do it back home and we really enjoy our time up there on stage.”

Kanon “Fans overseas seem to get more involved in the songs than fans in Japan.”

Takuya “I would like to spend some time looking around the cities this time. We didn’t really get to do much of that on our last tour.”
They have a tight schedule when they’re on tour, constantly moving from one town to the next, but I do hope that get some time to spend walking around the cities, even if it’s only for an hour or two. New cities can provide an artist with new inspiration and for Japanese people, experiencing a new city allows one to develop a deeper understanding of Japanese society as well.
In the lead up to their comeback concert I took the opportunity to re-familiarize myself with An Cafe’s brand of Harajuku dance rock. I get why their songs have been such a hit all over the world. 

Kanon “Everything we want to do right now we’ve accomplished with this latest album.”

Takuya “I feel the same. I also learnt that it’s the five of us working together that determines what becomes an An Cafe song in the end.”

The attractive thing about An Cafe is that the members are just being themselves. I’ve spent a lot of time with group since we first met but no matter what time of day or where they are, they’re always themselves – even during their live performances.
And in that natural state they’re making connections all over the world. I think that’s really great. Japan connecting with the world just as it is. 

A lot of friends of mine were also there to take part in An Cafe’s comeback concert. I’m always talking about An Cafe and why I think they’re so amazing, but I firmly believe that experiencing them live in concert and sharing in that energy will surely lead to something more in the future.

To all the Cafekko who have been waiting for An Cafe to return to the stage for the past 2 years and 8 months, thank you!

The Concert

Dėkojame Sakurai Takemasa už puikų straipnį . :)

Chiba prefektūroje su Kanon ! 

Rugpjūčio pradžioje , buvau pas Kanon tėvus . Kanon kilęs iš Chosi miesto , Chiba prefektūros . Cape Inubo garsus , nes čia anksčiausiai pateka saulė Japonijoje ( kitaip nei salos ar Fudžijamos kalnas) . 

Čia tai tik nuostabus kaimo vaizdas , bet ir turistus pritraukia Chosi linija . Vieta , kuri man buvo įsimintiniausia - observatorija , kurioje galima pamatyti besisukančią Žemę . Gulint kartu su Kanon ir stebint tai buvo pats įsimintiniausias įvykis šią vasarą .
