Me and Atsuko are of the same generation, same age, same blood type, same Zodiac, we often talked about how we are very similar. But even though I thought we’re somehow similar, when we were standing on the stage, I was watching Atsuko and thinking that she’s so strong, she’s really great. One month before Atsuko’s graduation, we fought because of something trivial. Atsuko’s time in AKB was limited, and I wish we laughed more, I wished I cherished our time together. Though we reconciled the day before the Tokyo Dome concert, that’s how I think now. But for this reason, from now on too I want us to stay friends, so please take care of me. I think Atsuko will definitely make her dreams come true, so from now on too please shine as an actress.
