Sashihara Rino talks about new HKT stage movement and her thoughts in mobame.


Alright hello everyone, Sashiko-chan here.

I wasn't sure if I should talk about HKT new original stage today. Though I'm a member/manager, I couldn't appear on theater stage recently.

The latest NGT new stage is not a real new stage, but the unused songs for Pachinko AKB Project.

I understand your strong feelings of "Whatever, just give HKT new stage now". Considering how long you guys've been waiting for this, I feel painful.

Still, there is something not right here.

In my opinion, if there is a new stage for HKT, it must've been given to team H. I'm fine with everyone experiencing the new stage, but, if I were responsible to write the new original stage, I would have given it to HKT 1st gen. If it's for team H only, how about the 1st gen in team KIV? Thinking about these things, I can't deny my passion to compose a new stage for HKT has calmed down quite a bit.

The best solution is to let Himawari having the new one, maybe? In that case everyone can appear on the new stage. But, these songs won't be characterized by members. It will look like a stage completely made by members temporally, lacking the presence of background stories designed for these songs and costumes. Considering this, if the original stage doesn't provide a specific position for each member, it doesn't make any sense.

For example, let's assume Itoshiki Natasha is a new song in this new stage.This is a song belongs to Tanabe, Haachan and me. But if we couldn't make the stage, occasionally the substitute members wouldn't concentrate herself in this song. The reason is: she can't love this song from her heart, the only reason she's performing this song, is she's in today's lineup and have to perform this. Maybe after many performances in stage, this song will belong to her too. But when AkiP writes these songs, he'd have only first day's lineup in his mind.

That's why AkiP can only write stages for real teams. But with continuous new single/album releases for 48G and 46G, I don't think he can do anything more.

Until I start it myself, (btw I really started it recently), I've been thinking this many times: "AkiP, just hurry up and write new songs for us!! Just write new stages for us now!!" After I wrote only several songs myself, I was very exhausted already. AkiP has other producer jobs to do, not to mention he has written hundreds of songs in his career, it seems he just doesn't have time to do this...

People would say "this is exactly his job!". But I don't want any crudely made songs in new stages or new singles. I've thought maybe we should hire someone else to write new songs. But in the end, I prefer AkiP. His songs are poets. I love the stories he told in his songs.

I truly appreciate everyone's passion on this. But I suggest you guys to stop your passionate HKT new stage movement, for now. ( ; ; ) I'm sorry. I'm pretty sure your feelings have been acknowledged by them already. But even after that, they can't do anything. In current situation, they just can't do it...

What a long mail. In short, it's very difficult to do it. But regardless of that, I think we should change the current stages at least. (⌒-⌒; )
