00:00The interviewer is Osamu Hayashi.
00:03Tonight...
00:10She is the youngest female member of the Kouhaku Uta Gassen.
00:14She has been participating in the competition for 16 years.
00:17She is a charismatic artist.
00:21Nice to meet you.
00:23Nice to meet you.
00:26Please take a seat.
00:28Nice to meet you.
00:30Your voice is so small.
00:33My voice is not that clear.
00:36Is that so?
00:40Perfume is a female group that is active all over the world, not just in Japan.
00:50Perfume is ahead of Adonis Akiyama, a world-famous entertainer.
00:55They are ahead.
00:57They have been touring the world for 12 years.
01:00This year is the 25th anniversary of Perfume's formation.
01:03Wow, 25 years!
01:07Their latest video technology and dance have been well-received overseas.
01:17Their live DVD is the best-selling of 11 works.
01:23They have won many awards, including Amuro Namie, Utada Hikaru, and Hamasaki Ayumi.
01:29They are the best female artists.
01:37They are the top artists.
01:42When they moved to Hiroshima in the third grade of junior high school...
01:47Only two of them came.
01:49Fewer than the members.
01:53They went through 9 years of hard work.
02:00Tonight, Mikiko-sensei, who has been with Perfume for 25 years...
02:05I'm here, so I think I'm okay.
02:10The truth for the first time on TV...
02:15I can't stop crying.
02:19First of all, congratulations on the 25th anniversary of Perfume's formation.
02:2525 years!
02:27How old were you when you were formed?
02:30I met him when I was 9, and I was 10 when I was formed.
02:36So you've known each other since elementary school?
02:40Yes.
02:42We've been friends since then.
02:45I heard that you were mistaken about the year you were formed.
02:49I thought it was 2000 until recently.
02:54But my sister told me it was 1999.
03:00She told me.
03:02Can you prove that your sister is right?
03:07I have a terrible memory.
03:11It's true.
03:13My sister told me that it was after the unit audition.
03:17At that time, she said,
03:19It was after the unit audition.
03:21It was originally written in 2000,
03:23but she said it was the first time she did it in front of people.
03:29You've been talking for a long time.
03:31Do you usually speak in Hiroshima dialect?
03:33Yes.
03:35But I feel like I'm in Tokyo.
03:40I don't know how well you speak in Hiroshima dialect.
03:44I'm speaking in Hiroshima dialect.
03:47Speaking of participating in Perfume,
03:49you've been participating in the Kouhaku Uta Gassen for 16 years in a row.
03:53This is the largest number of female groups.
03:56That's amazing.
03:5816 years?
04:01Perfume has been participating in the Kouhaku Uta Gassen for 16 years in a row.
04:06This is the video of the first time they participated in the Kouhaku Uta Gassen in 2008.
04:23They showed their polyrhythm, which was the trigger for the break.
04:31The jump is small.
04:33The jump is small.
04:35I'm doing an explosive jump right now.
04:38It's lower when I'm young.
04:40It's really different.
04:50After the performance,
04:52the three of them were overjoyed and cried loudly in the back.
04:57And in 2013,
04:59they surprised a large audience with their sixth appearance.
05:03Oh, this.
05:07I think I used a reflector.
05:09This is when I used a reflector.
05:13This is when I did the mapping.
05:15I saw it.
05:17The latest technology, projection mapping, was still unusual at the time.
05:21It's fast, projection mapping.
05:23Even if you move, you can see it accurately.
05:25It's a stage where you can see the three-dimensional full CG video
05:28in the pure white costumes of the members who dance vigorously.
05:32Everything is fast.
05:34Perfume is really fast.
05:37It evolved even more with the 11th appearance.
05:41In the stage of the live broadcast of Kouhaku Uta Gassen,
05:44it is a revolutionary performance that replaces reality and virtual space in real time.
05:50This is the concert.
05:52I did it at the place.
05:59Where are you?
06:01If it's a music video, I can understand it.
06:03In real time.
06:05Viewers who couldn't understand what was going on
06:08continued to watch the video, which they thought was a live broadcast.
06:13I was very happy to be able to do it with the fans.
06:21It's a very historical group.
06:23How did you feel when you were asked to sing after your first appearance?
06:29My dream came true.
06:31I felt like I was able to repay the people who supported me.
06:37The timing when I realized that was when I put it on my sleeve.
06:42Since I came to Tokyo from Hiroshima,
06:45even if I work hard in Tokyo,
06:47there are many things that I can't reach my hometown.
06:51I was able to appear in Kouhaku
06:53It was also a way to convey to my family, relatives, friends, and people who sent me.
07:02It was a way to convey that I'm doing my best and I've come this far.
07:08Basically, you always perform as a hero.
07:15Recently, there have been idols who have become heroes.
07:20You're a pioneer.
07:22That's a lot.
07:25If it's sneakers, the dancers will explode.
07:30I grew up with hip-hop.
07:34Maybe this is how the goods are kept.
07:39I see.
07:40I'm going to dance to Mikiko's choreography with heels.
07:43It's like a perfume.
07:47It's made for each person's feet.
07:51I see.
07:52Yuka's shoes and my shoes have different shapes.
07:56They look the same.
07:59Did you feel less pain when you were ordered?
08:02I felt less pain.
08:04It's changed a lot.
08:07Does it hurt a little?
08:09It hurts a little.
08:12If I dance for three hours, my shoes will hurt.
08:16I see.
08:17I danced with my toes.
08:19It hurts.
08:21You can't even move your face.
08:24It hurts, doesn't it?
08:27After a two-hour live, her feet swelled up.
08:31She can't even walk without an icing.
08:36She's wearing a hormone T-shirt.
08:39A real hormone T-shirt.
08:41It's a relationship.
08:45She's suddenly showing her feet.
08:47She's showing her feet.
08:50Now, the 8cm high heels are an item that symbolizes perfume.
08:55There are 8cm high heels.
08:57The interview is only possible if you experience the same height.
09:01It's interesting.
09:02I'm going to dance.
09:04What is this picture?
09:05Can you stand up?
09:08What kind of life are you living?
09:11Looking at this picture, I can't believe she went that way.
09:14Did you want to go that way?
09:16Historically, men used to wear red high heels.
09:20Really?
09:22Louis XIV was proud of his legs.
09:25He wore a white T-shirt and red high heels.
09:28It's beautiful.
09:29We customized it.
09:32We made it so that it would be your feet.
09:35You can run.
09:39It's amazing.
09:40She's showing her feet again.
09:42It's a part of your feet.
09:44That's right.
09:45Let's dance.
09:49How hard is it to dance with 8cm high heels?
09:55This time, we asked the perfume to teach us.
10:00She's here.
10:03It's a popular corner.
10:05However,
10:06Welcome.
10:10Dad.
10:11Hayasho is motivated, but he doesn't have a good sense.
10:17High heels are too dangerous.
10:21So, let's put the shoes back and focus on dancing.
10:28The challenge is to dance to the representative song,
10:32Chocolate Disco.
10:37It's Chocolate Disco.
10:40I can do it.
10:41I can do it.
10:42I can do it.
10:52I think I can do it.
10:53I'm looking forward to it.
10:54Can I do it?
10:56It takes time.
11:03I think I can do it.
11:04Do you have to move your feet at the same time?
11:07That's the dance.
11:09It's hard.
11:10One, two, three.
11:11Right, left, right, left, right.
11:14It's good.
11:15It's really good.
11:16I can do it.
11:17At that time,
11:18Elbows.
11:19Elbows.
11:20Go up.
11:21Go down.
11:22Go up.
11:23Go down.
11:25Have confidence.
11:26It's impossible to move your feet at the same time.
11:28That's the dance.
11:29It's hard.
11:30That's a great one-take.
11:31That's the dance.
11:32That's the dance.
11:33I can do it for the first time.
11:35All right, music start.
11:38Let's go.
11:39One, two, three.
11:40Chocolate disco.
11:41One, two, three.
11:42Chocolate disco.
11:43Chocolate disco.
11:44Chocolate disco.
11:45Oh, I can do it.
11:46I can do it.
11:47I can do it.
11:48What's going on?
11:49Left, right.
11:50Right, left, right, left.
11:51Left, right.
11:52Left, left, right, left.
11:53I can do it! I can do it!
11:55So cute!
11:56So cute!
11:57Wait! Wait!
12:02You were able to catch up with Perfume!
12:04I was able to catch up with Sunny!
12:07The tempo was so different!
12:09I never heard of this!
12:11I see, I see.
12:12I was a little late.
12:13Wait, wait, wait!
12:15I was a little late!
12:18I was imitating Takeshi-san!
12:21I was doing my best.
12:26I was a little late!
12:27I'm relieved that Sensei has something he can't do.
12:32This is a scam!
12:34The tempo was so different!
12:36I never heard of this!
12:39This is the great thing about Osamu Hayashi.
12:42He has a positive attitude that he can do it if the tempo is different.
12:47So, they're going to do it again.
13:07Music, start!
13:10Here we go!
13:11One, two!
13:13Takeshi-san!
13:14Takeshi-san!
13:15Takeshi-san!
13:16Takeshi-san!
13:17Takeshi-san!
13:18Takeshi-san!
13:19Don't look!
13:20To the right!
13:21To the left!
13:22To the right!
13:23I'm going to do it!
13:24Do it!
13:25I'm going to do it!
13:26Here we go!
13:27One, two!
13:32You're using something!
13:34You're using something!
13:35Really?
13:36That's amazing!
13:39The growth of the first and second attempts was incredible.
13:43The learning ability was...
13:45It's different.
13:46The learning ability is high.
13:52First, Osamu Hayashi will tell us how the national female group, Perfume, was born.
14:00At the beginning, there was a benefactor who had been with the members for 25 years.
14:07There was the existence of the mothers who kept the three beautiful.
14:13In this corner, according to the image of the guests,
14:17Masaru Akai will design a beautiful flower.
14:22First, this white one is called Shidaregua.
14:26It's rare.
14:27It was hard to make it look like this.
14:29And this green one is called Dusty Mirror.
14:35I added a little bit of silver.
14:37It's sparkly and cute!
14:40I used these things to express everyone's near-future.
14:46That's amazing!
14:48Thank you!
14:52In 1999, the three of them enrolled at Actors School Hiroshima as first-year students.
15:00At that time, they were Perfume, formed by A-chan, Kashiyuka, and another member.
15:06And later, Nocchi joined the group.
15:11I decided to quit the group.
15:13I needed another member.
15:18So, I decided to join Ayano-chan.
15:21In the elevator...
15:23You couldn't run away again.
15:26On the way back from the lesson, when we were in the elevator,
15:30I was invited to join Perfume.
15:32So, I joined right away.
15:36Since I joined Actors School, Yuka-chan and I were in the same class.
15:42So, the dance teacher was Mikiko, and the voice teacher was the same.
15:47But Nocchi was in the star class, so the teacher was different.
15:51And the class was a little different.
15:54Nocchi was in the upper class, right?
15:57Nocchi was in a class that was expected.
16:00So, I was in the upper class.
16:02I don't understand.
16:03Did you get invited from the lower class?
16:05Did you get kicked out?
16:08No, I didn't have a concept of being in the lower or upper class.
16:14At that time, among the girls who sang and danced cool songs,
16:20the three girls who sang cute songs and danced like idols stood out.
16:27I see.
16:28I didn't know that.
16:30I'm sorry. I was curious about that.
16:34The only person who cares about that is the dance teacher.
16:37That's right.
16:43Currently, Perfume is a world-famous unit that has established its position as a techno-pop unit.
16:51But right after its formation...
16:54At that time, it wasn't techno-pop.
16:56It was a so-called idol song.
16:59I didn't know that.
17:01There was self-introduction in the song.
17:03Like, I'm A-chan.
17:04I'm Kashiyuka.
17:06There was something like that.
17:12Originally, they were active as idols.
17:14When they were 13 years old, only three years after their formation,
17:18the three of them made their Indie debut.
17:21It sounds like it was going pretty well.
17:24Did you have a lot of fans?
17:27No, I didn't.
17:29There were a lot of adults who talked to me like cherry blossoms.
17:33Cherry blossoms.
17:35Cherry blossoms.
17:36There were many handshakes.
17:41Every day, on a snowy day, on a rainy day, on a windy day,
17:44there was a time when we gave out flowers.
17:48We made our debut.
17:49We were going to have an insta-event.
17:51We wanted to do what we could so that many people could come to the event.
17:55Every day, every day, for weeks,
17:58there were only two people who came to the event.
18:02Fewer than the members.
18:04Wow, that's tough.
18:06That's how it started.
18:07But wasn't there a part where you were a little discouraged?
18:11At that time, I was depressed.
18:16That's why I wasn't sure if I could do it.
18:20I wasn't sure if I could do it.
18:22I wasn't worried about it.
18:24I didn't know what to do.
18:27I got a message from someone who knows a lot about Hiroshima.
18:34Who is it?
18:36A person who knows a lot about perfume.
18:38Who is it?
18:39It's...
18:41A-chan, Kashiyuka, Nocchi, Mikiko.
18:44It's a teacher!
18:47Mikiko is a choreographer.
18:53She choreographed the love dance, which became a social phenomenon.
18:58She choreographed the 2016 Rio Olympics.
19:04She is...
19:05She is...
19:11She choreographed almost all the choreographies and live performances of Perfume.
19:15She is...
19:17Perfume's fourth member.
19:21And the first time she met the three of them was...
19:24We met when the three of us were in fifth grade.
19:27That's amazing.
19:28Yes.
19:29More than 25 years.
19:30Yes.
19:31The three of them were elementary school students at that time.
19:34They went to Hiroshima Actors School.
19:38Mikiko was the first one to learn how to dance.
19:43Since then, the four of them have been together in the club for 25 years.
19:50The teacher said that the three of them, who were still young at that time,
19:54were able to endure tough lessons because of the existence of certain people.
20:01Anyway, I think it was the mothers who taught us that we had to do this much to make our dreams come true.
20:14Is that so?
20:15Yes.
20:16I don't know if I can say this.
20:19There is a mirror outside the studio.
20:21There is a space where you can practice freely.
20:25So, the three of us always practiced between lessons.
20:31I think it was the mothers who coached us.
20:37When I look back, I always remember the faces of the mothers.
20:45The mothers have never danced, but as a position seen from the audience, the choreography was very difficult.
20:53You can see it in the back of the mirror, right?
20:55It's scary.
20:56A-chan, a little lower.
21:00The right hand comes out first.
21:03I see.
21:04So, the dancing figure was engraved in your memory.
21:07That's right.
21:08When I went to events or presentations, all the mothers did it for me.
21:15The mothers gathered the costumes from the fabric and sewed and made the shapes themselves.
21:21The mothers produced the costumes themselves.
21:27Thanks to the mothers, we were able to perform well.
21:32In the spring of 2003, when you were in the third year of junior high school, you performed.
21:38Did you feel lonely because you had such a close relationship with your mother?
21:45After two months, I called my mother every day.
21:58Did she comfort you?
22:01She said, why did you call me?
22:06She said, there is a studio, so go to practice.
22:11She said, you're always on the edge.
22:14She said, I don't know when I'll be back in Hiroshima.
22:18Do you still say that now?
22:20I still say that now.
22:22She said, you're really happy.
22:25All the mothers say that.
22:27She said, you're really happy.
22:32She's the best.
22:34She's a good daughter.
22:36And the person who changed Perfume's life a lot when she was in high school was...
22:46Sound producer Yasutaka Nakata.
22:50When she met him, she stepped into a new genre called techno-pop.
22:59However, there was a big struggle with this route change.
23:05In addition, Ms. Mikiko, who has been with Perfume for 25 years,
23:11I had to explain it to the three of them.
23:18Tears for the first time on TV.
23:32But honestly, when you first heard this song, what did you think?
23:39I thought it sounded like a game.
23:42What's good about the Actors School is...
23:47It's like a singing diva.
23:49It was a song that said, show your emotions more and more.
23:54It was a song that said the exact opposite.
23:58I was told to speak more coldly.
24:02I was very confused when I recorded it.
24:05It was very detailed.
24:08I was told to cut this part more.
24:12There's a song called Delicious Recipe.
24:21It's like a sound.
24:23I didn't even know where the charm of Mr. Nakata's music was.
24:28We were crying.
24:30Did you cry, too?
24:32Yes.
24:33There were a lot of sofas in the booth.
24:36There was a manga by Conan.
24:38I remember crying there.
24:40How many volumes of Conan did you have?
24:43I had one volume.
24:50Didn't you talk about going back to Hiroshima?
24:53No one said that.
24:56Anyway, I felt like I was going to die.
24:59They didn't say anything that they didn't want to do.
25:04That's right.
25:06I didn't think so.
25:08Successful people are like that.
25:11There are times when people say, no, I'm different.
25:15Once you think it's right, let's do it.
25:20There are many people who give results.
25:24They don't do what they want to do.
25:27They continue to do what they want to do.
25:31Everyone is like that.
25:33Perfume, which went through such a period,
25:364 years after the situation, 2007.
25:41A certain commercial became a hot topic.
25:44It's a big break.
25:46That's...
25:47Commercial?
25:53Perfume.
26:04This is a commercial for the environmental protection campaign,
26:08which was broadcast on NHK as well as Minpo.
26:11The fame of Perfume spread all over the country
26:14because this commercial was broadcast.
26:19It's a great commercial.
26:22It's true.
26:26This is the point where they broke.
26:29That's right.
26:31What did you say?
26:33Rather than raising both hands and being happy,
26:36I said, this is important.
26:39It's important to be careful.
26:41It's important from here.
26:43If it's here, it's no good.
26:46It was closed tightly.
26:49It was closed tightly.
26:51That's right.
26:55From here,
26:5716 years in a row on the Kouhaku Uta Gassen,
27:00Perfume's new drama begins.
27:08Next,
27:09Hayashi Osamu approaches the live performance of Perfume,
27:12which fascinates the world.
27:16Speaking of Perfume's live performance,
27:18anyway, the distance from the fans is close.
27:21In that style,
27:28there is a spirit learned from Aiko,
27:30whom the three respect.
27:32Is that so?
27:33By the way,
27:34did you get the call and response from Aiko
27:36for the live fan?
27:39Is that so?
27:40I got it.
27:42It's like a franchise.
27:44Aiko, it's a franchise.
27:47It's a franchise.
27:50Everyone respects Aiko.
27:53That's right.
27:54When I went to see Aiko's live performance,
27:57I was very shocked.
28:00A very important part is the distance from the audience.
28:04It's really close.
28:06When the song is over like a friend,
28:08I'm talking all my life.
28:11I'm having a conversation.
28:13I can't feel the distance.
28:16That's the call and response.
28:19It's really condensed.
28:23This is the actual call and response
28:25that Aiko is franchising.
28:29Boys!
28:31Girls!
28:33Glasses!
28:35Contacts!
28:37Lagan!
28:39Benkoshi!
28:41Benkoshi!
28:42There!
28:43He's really close.
28:44Wakai!
28:45How many?
28:4729.
28:48You did your best.
28:50Next,
28:52Isha!
28:53There are quite a few.
28:55Isha!
28:56There are a lot of Isha!
28:58Who has been looking forward to this live performance?
29:03Yes!
29:05Unexpectedly,
29:06you're revealing your personal information.
29:09I'm sorry.
29:11Don't look at me like that.
29:13I hope I can help somewhere.
29:15That's right.
29:16I'm sorry.
29:17You were taken care of by such a thing.
29:18Yes.
29:19I don't think I was left behind.
29:23I would be very happy if I could join it.
29:27That's right.
29:28I want you to take it home as a souvenir.
29:32By the way,
29:33Have you ever been used by the fans of the live performance?
29:37I'm sorry.
29:38It's okay.
29:40It's not mine.
29:42Sometimes my voice is very small.
29:45I feel like I'm being watched.
29:48There are people like this.
29:50But if I don't say it,
29:52they say,
29:54When will you say it?
29:57Now!
29:59I'm sorry.
30:01Please use it.
30:02You don't have to use it.
30:04Is that so?
30:05Would you like to say it together?
30:10Can you do it?
30:13Don't say it now.
30:15When will you say it?
30:18Now!
30:20That's cute.
30:23That's a good way to say it.
30:26It was early for the three of you to go abroad.
30:29In 2011,
30:31Polyrhythm was selected as an introduction to the movie Cars 2 by Pixar.
30:37When I was invited to the world premiere,
30:41There was a fan who said,
30:44Kashioka, let's do a live performance here later.
30:47It's not a relative, it's just a fan who came to see us.
30:52So I thought,
30:53If there's someone who wants to go abroad,
30:56I want to go.
30:58I've been performing abroad since 2012.
31:07The world tour so far has been held 4 times.
31:11In fact, they have performed in 21 cities around the world and received high praise.
31:19The secret to their popularity is the live performance using cutting-edge technology.
31:25One of them is Mikiko, who is in charge of choreography and directing.
31:29What's your favorite performance?
31:33There's a performance called Fusion that uses the shadows of the three of us.
31:39It's a performance that can be done at 360 degrees by changing the perspective of the shadows and the camera.
31:48It's a different kind of immersion.
31:51Fusion is an evolution of what I want to do.
31:59A dance that links with the shadow that does not allow a shift of 0.1 seconds.
32:04This is the best performance using cutting-edge technology.
32:22What is Fusion?
32:24Fusion is a 360-degree video data of the three of us that we shot in advance.
32:32The three of us, the three of us who actually dance live, are synchronized.
32:37This is a production that makes it ambiguous whether it's a real shadow or a fake.
32:45So I want to make it look like a shadow.
32:48The three of us absolutely have to synchronize with the past self we shot at that time.
32:57And I can't make a mistake.
33:00It's a very tense production.
33:04It's the feeling when you're hooked.
33:07Cool.
33:08But that's what the Asia Tour is all about.
33:11The video shifts by 0.1 or 0.2 seconds.
33:17It's because of the equipment.
33:19And the three of us notice that.
33:22I'm worried that this is a little off.
33:24Because this is off, this magic doesn't work.
33:29So we're going to put the video together.
33:35But the three of us who dance together notice it.
33:39The last check is done by the three of us.
33:42It's amazing.
33:48It's hard just to synchronize with the video that was shot in advance.
33:53Do you often notice the difference of one frame?
33:57Are you all right?
34:00I'm fine.
34:02We're the closest to the LEDs that reflect our shadows.
34:09So I can see that it's off while I'm actually dancing.
34:15If it's off, the sound is unpleasant.
34:19When the video and dance fit together, the sound is clear and pleasant.
34:24But if it's a little off, the sound is blurry.
34:28I'm really worried about that.
34:31When I go on a tour in Asia or overseas,
34:34I don't want to compromise even a millimeter.
34:43So we spend a lot of time on rehearsals.
34:47We take care of ourselves so much that we don't worry about anything else.
34:52But if you say it's because it's off,
34:55you'll be in a situation where you can't make a mistake.
35:00It's like we're strangling ourselves.
35:03But when we synchronize, we feel like we're in the air.
35:09We're so excited.
35:13It's the best.
35:15That's what we're looking forward to.
35:18We think this production is the best and coolest in the world.
35:24That's what I want you to see the most.
35:29I can't stop it.
35:31I'm addicted.
35:34Stoic posture that doesn't allow a single mistake.
35:39The overwhelming performance that comes from there
35:43is beyond the walls of words and impresses people all over the world.
35:50As the same artist, Nao saw Perfume's live performance right after the pandemic.
35:58That was amazing.
36:00I thought, this is the opening ceremony of the Olympics.
36:04I wanted the whole world to see this.
36:08I got goosebumps.
36:11The kids were like, wow.
36:15They showed us amazing things,
36:18but the MC was like, pick up the chest.
36:22Next, we have a warm message from the benefactor, Ms. Mikiko, to Perfume.
36:31Ms. Mikiko has been watching the audience for 25 years since their debut.
36:41She never told me she was tired or wanted to quit.
36:47I remember practicing even when I couldn't do anything.
36:54But when I stood on the stage and saw the audience,
37:03I didn't think about it, but I saw all the hard work and tears,
37:08and I knew it was hard.
37:14Led by Ms. Mikiko,
37:18Perfume has been supported by their mothers.
37:25That's why Perfume has been performing live for 25 years.
37:33That's because...
37:36So many staff members are supporting me.
37:42The countdown and the moment of the year are working for me.
37:48Please give a round of applause to such staff members.
37:54That's what it means.
37:56Perfume, thank you so much.
38:01Words of gratitude to the staff.
38:05Perfume understands that they can perform for the first time
38:10because there are people around them who support them.
38:16Ms. Mikiko is grateful to the staff of Perfume.
38:26It's the truth when Ms. Mikiko has a hard time.
38:34She's like a family to me.
38:38She's crying with me.
38:51When Ms. Mikiko had the hardest time in her life,
38:56what was the bond she felt with Perfume?
39:02It was around 2020 or 2021.
39:06I was involved in a big project until then.
39:11I couldn't change my mind.
39:16So I decided to resign.
39:19It was the time when I had to stand up again as a performer.
39:28I had to explain it to the three of them.
39:35When I explained it to them,
39:37they cried with me like a family.
39:45When I saw that,
39:48I thought it was okay because I was here.
39:52I received energy from them and was able to create Polygon Wave.
40:00It was the timing when I was able to perform again.
40:14Even if you have a hard time,
40:17there is a place to go home.
40:22That's why Ms. Mikiko was able to look forward again.
40:36A-chan, Yuka-chan, Nocchi.
40:3925 years went by so fast.
40:4325 years have passed.
40:46We are honest with each other now.
40:51We get along well.
40:55We are good partners and good understanders.
40:59I feel that we have become good friends.
41:06I feel that the scenery I want to see is always with the three of us.
41:14I hope we can continue to laugh and spend time together.
41:29How did you feel when you saw it?
41:32We feel like a family.
41:37I'm glad I got such an important gift from the teacher.
41:45I'm glad I've been doing this for a long time.
41:49I think it's the first time I've heard that story from the teacher.
41:53I've never said it to the media.
41:57She said she thought it was okay because she was here.
42:01I don't think I've ever said that I was able to play it again.
42:07We couldn't have come this far without the presence of Perfume.
42:15Perfume is like a part of our body.
42:21I don't want to do what the teacher doesn't want to do.
42:24I've always wanted to do my best in the same place as the teacher's feelings.
42:30I wonder how hard it was to hold on to it at that time.
42:35I want to be in the same position as the teacher because she did it with our feelings.
42:46How long do you want to do Perfume?
42:53How long do you want to do Perfume?
42:57I'm curious.
42:58I'd like to know.
43:04I'm going back to China.
43:08If Tatsuro arranges it, it'll be a pop song.
43:17How long do you want to do Perfume?
43:23How long do you want to do Perfume?
43:27I'm looking forward to seeing how far I can go until I'm old enough to do it.
43:34As far as I've seen your performance, you're still moving.
43:38I can move more than five years ago.
43:42Ten years ago, I thought it was hard.
43:46It's not that hard now.
43:48I'm over 30 years old, and I know that my body changes with my age.
43:53I'm learning how to face it.
44:00I can still dance.
44:06The fact that the teacher can dance means that we can dance.
44:10The teacher always shows me the future.
44:14The teacher always told me that I was having a lot of fun when I was in my 30s.
44:22The teacher always showed me the bright future and the joy of becoming an adult.
44:28As long as the teacher continues to dance, we will continue to dance.
44:33If the teacher says,
44:35If the teacher says,
44:38I'll do my best.
44:40I'll do my best.
44:42Thank you very much.
44:44Thank you for the recording.
44:49And at the end of the recording, they were able to see the Perfume-like performance.
44:56Thank you so much for the wonderful VTR and so many people.
45:02Thank you so much.
45:04Thank you so much.
45:06Thank you so much.
45:08No matter what the situation is, she never forgets to be grateful.
45:13That's Perfume.
45:15Thank you so much.
45:18Our staff wrote a dance for Ms. Hayase.
45:24As long as it's embarrassing.
45:26I want to collaborate with a lot of people.
45:30I think Ms. Hayase is the best.
45:39Now that we've heard the compliment, let's keep up the good work.
45:44Hayase Osamu
