(Nogi 42)English Translation of Inoue Nagi's an-an No 2310 issue interview featuring Ioki Mao and Ogawa Aya (03/08/2022)

~An introduction of the 5th generation member based on Mao words!~

Inoue Nagi

-She is very aware of the surrounding atmosphere. Although Nagi is usually a very reliable person, she will shout "YEAH!" together when everyone is in high spirits! She is also someone who is very good at adapting to various situation 

Ichinose Miku

-Miku is a very interesting person ,who is in charge of making the atmosphere lively among the 5th generation members . But Miku also has a side of putting herself in others shoes, and doing her best to help her friends. I also want to talk with her more

Sugawara Satsuki

-Sa-chan was very nervous initially. Now that she has overcome her nervousness, she can stand on the stage and communicate with the seniors naturally... Her growth speed is really amazing!

Ogawa Aya

-The youngest but has a strong sense of self-awareness. Very calm and lazy. But she is also terrified of  being tickled! She is often being teased/tickled in the backstage. To the 5th generation,she is emboldies an existence of a baby

Tomisato Nao

-She act all Leisurely and soft. Nao is a someone whom everyone likes. Her occasional rant is also funny (laughs). Althought Nao portrayed an personality of being"soft and airy", but she unexpectedly has been watching the members calmly and understand each members in the 5th generation well!?

Okuda Iroha

Iroha is really a very nice girl! She never speak ill of people and pay attention to the surrounding atmosphere. She is also very humorous. To me, she is someone who can make me happy just by being together with her.

~Author Note:Mao is particularly close to Iroha among the 5th generation members,based on blog etc~

Nakanishi Aruno

Aruno, who likes reptiles and has a wide range of interests, knows a lot of things that I don't know, and she is really interesting to talked to. Her singing is very powerful and very delicate... It's very reassuring to listen to her singing voice. I hope to listen to her singing while i am relaxing.

Ikeda Teresa

Teresa looks mature and mysterious at first glance, but when she speaks, she expresses a funny side of a woman (laughs). I hope her unique taste and take can be brought out in a talk show and other occasions where she can talk a lot.

Kawasaki Sakura

Sakura is a typical little girl! But she is by no means the kind that is quiet and calm , and she is very interesting. Although she is like an older sister in terms of age, i feels as though she is like my classmates. For me, she is a person who i can feels very relaxed when being around her.

Okamoto Hina

Hina, who is skilled in ballet, works harder than others during the usual training sessions. She is definitely the number 1 in being "cheerful" among the 5th generation members. No matter what ,she always greets people with a smile and would always be seen laughing.

~This three representatives of the Nogizaka46 5th generation had a cross-talk on the theme of "fashionable things in the 5th generation". As big influencers whose existence alone can make an impact, what are they currently obsessed with? Take a peek at their true selfs...~

Aya: One of the popular thing among the 5th generation students currently is almond long cake ,which we had recently try out during the 29th hit campaign/backstage before an performance.Everyone was shocked when they try it out and exclaimed " What is this,it is so delicious!?"

Nagi:After which, whenever i see almond long cake, I will sure to buy, buy, buy! This has been going on for a while (laughs). Speaking of which, when (Ichinose) Miku and I spent the night at (Nakanishi) Aruno's house, Aruno also baked almond long cake for us...!

Mao and Aya:"We want to eat Aruno's almond long cake too!"

Nagi:Almond long cake is really tasty. When it comes to the 5th generation members, as long as someone says "that's delicious" regarding a food/snacks, everyone will tend to buy it the next day...

Aya:There was an period where the 5th generation members were all into sweet potato bread 

Nagi:That one started with Sa-chan (Sugawara Satsuki), right? Most of the food/snack obsession in the 5th generation started from Sa-chan. Once you're addicted to it, you'll end up only eat that thing (laughs).

Mao:I was suprised when Aya told me that the soy eggs can be brought at the convenience store . Until then, I always thought that i have to cooked the eggs myself.I thought that soy eggs sold in covinence store were an novel idea ,and that they were surprisingly delicious.

Nagi:Not just food but also clothes. I've always liked casual vintage clothes, but after seeing the outfits of Miku and (Okamoto) Hina-chan and Sa-chan...

Aya:Those 3 people are very "Mature-like" (referring to Miku,Hina and Sa-chan)

Nagi:Right! So I recently started trying to wear more mature style dress... (shy)

Mao and Aya: "Nagi, kawaii ne!"

Mao:On the contrary, Miku also said recently, "Seeing Nagi's outfit, I also started thinking about just wearing trousers and a T-shirt when going out"....

Aya:When I wore my favorite shirt recently, Sa-chan would say "It's so pretty~". After that, she went out to get a similar shirt ,and then after which she told me "I'm wearing similar clothes as Aya~" ,somehow i felt quite happy(laughs).

Nagi:I think there are 3 people in the 5th generation who own the "gelato pique" tote bag 

~Author Note:Gelato Pique is the largest and most luxury loungewear brand in the world~

Aya:Me and Miku both own the "gelato pique" tote bag, and when I said "Ah, the same tote bag and brand!", Sa-chan suddenly appeared and said "I bought the same tote bag too~♪" (laughs). But basically everyone has their own personal style. When I went to a clothing store with Mao, Sa-chan, and Miku, we usually go our separate ways as we have different taste in clothing.

Ioki:Everyone has their own style, and they also like to to imitate others. Even if the 5th generation members influence by other , everyone has their own unique personality and would not be affected by one another that much. Somehow, it feels like each 5th generation members can blend well with each other's charms.

Nagi: Sometimes we were also influenced by the seniors. During the Spring Live, i felt my heart racing when the seniors walked by! I especially like the scent of Umezawa (Minami) senpai's perfume. After I checked it,i found the perfume to be the brand of "Diptyque". Soon after,I immediately went to the store and try out the different perfume.

Aya:I also went with Nagi, we try out various perfume but in the end ,we could not decide....

Mao:Recently,i brought the concealer recommended by the Kubo senpai.

Nagi:Once my makeup is set,my mood will also usually improve. Currently, I’m still learning more about makeup, and I’m still very unskilled with makeup (laughs)

Mao:Ahahahaha! Indeed, I feel that my mood improve once my makeup is set too.

Nagi:I feel that if my nails are well done too, my mood will also improve. I always want to try a light fall color.

Aya:I haven't quite figured out how to applied make up... I want Nagi to teach me.

~Author Note:Personally i think Aya make up skills is better than Nagi~

Nagi:If you don't mind my poor makeup skill,i do not mind teaching you...But, is there really anything I can teach? (laughs) .I hope to learn more about makeup from you all too besides food and clothes.

Aya:Um. I also see that everyone is getting more and more beautiful day by day, and i feel like becoming even more beautiful too
