Sakura mobame about not entering sousenkyo:

Well then, let’s enter the main topic.
Senbatsu sousenkyo.
This year will be my last year participating.
Well, I say that, but depending on the conditions next year, there may be the possibility that I can’t not participate… *strained laughter*
However, for now I’m thinking of it as my last sousenkyo.
Up until now, I’ve been entering the sousenkyo for myself.
Of course, I think that’s the same for everyone.
Even Sasshi-san said, “It’s pointless if you’re not in it for yourself in the sousenkyo.” That’s what I think the sousenkyo is.
If I raise my ranking, even just a little, if lots of people come to know me, just slightly, if people take interest in me, just a bit…
Finally, if I can get closer in level to my seniors, if I can surpass them…
With those feelings in mind, I’ve been declaring my candidacy.

However, gradually, those seniors above me have decided to stop participating. I haven’t been able to pass anyone, and I rise up in rank like I’m moving forward in line. That has continued for the past three years.
That was really frustrating.
I felt, “Ah, so this is what hitting a wall is.”
And then, last year’s sousenkyo was Sasshi’s last.
She’s not participating this year.

For me, my reason for entering the sousenkyo was… one day, I wanted to go beyond even Sasshi. I wanted to repay the favor to my teacher, so to speak. That sentiment was the strongest.
Rank 1 in the sousenkyo.
As an extreme example, let’s say that everyone decided to not participate in the sousenkyo, and I got 1st Place. You can say that I’m 1st, but the result is basically the same as before…

The Rank 1 I couldn’t achieve is,
in any event,
is Rank 1 in a sousenkyo that I outran Sasshi.
By the way, I don’t see Sasshi as a rival.
I have so much love and gratitude for her, and I want to continue following her in the future.
I said all of the above because I respect her…that, I hope you can understand.

That’s why, there really wasn’t that much of a strong reason for me to participate in the sousenkyo… During this period, for example, if I wanted to improve my skills and practice more…was there something I could do? Thinking like this, I really was wavering. I couldn’t decide what I wanted to do.
However, I submitted my candidacy.
The meaning of that is.
For HKT48’s sake.

You may think I’m saying that just to make myself sound good, that it’s nothing but pretty words.
However, I really mean it.
For the first time, I declared my candidacy not for myself, but to take responsibility for HKT48.
If we think about HKT48, with Sasshi not participating in the sousenkyo, if I choose to abstain too…
How many names from HKT would be called for senbatsu. I reflected on that.
That’s why, I need to take the lead for HKT48.
I felt that I have to participate, that it’s almost my duty to do so.

Up until now, because Sasshi took 1st,
as HKT members we could stand proud during the sousenkyo.
I think all HKT members felt the same way.
Even for those who didn’t rise in rank as much as they expected, or those that didn’t rank in at all.
Because at the end, there would be that moment that Sasshi’s name was called,
we could smile.
Saying, “She’s in our group!,”
we could stand there and throw out our chest.
Even at the end of the sousenkyo in which I simply moved forward in line,
the reason my heart was bright and cheerful
was because Sasshi would absolutely take the crown.

Now, here’s a sousenkyo without Sasshi.
In Sasshi’s place, I want to be a source for their smiles and hearts.
For the HKT members who are aiming for senbatsu…
The back of the Queen, which I’ve always gazed longingly at…
This time, I want to be the one to show that back to them.

The flag of the 1st Place winner, which Sasshi has protected up until now.
I don’t want to turn over that flag to another group.
I will take over.
I will protect it.
For HKT48’s sake.

If I’m being honest, becoming 1st will be extremely, extremely difficult.
At present, there is zero chance that I can win.
I don’t see any future except one in which I lose.
There are probably people who think I’m just inviting bad luck by saying that, and that I should say “It’s possible for me to take 1st!” instead, but…
Precisely because I’m aiming for 1st Place, I need to face reality and look at it calmly.
1st Place isn’t something that is won so easily.

For this reason, I want to seize it with everyone.
Me taking 1st would mean
HKT48 taking 1st
and even all my fans taking 1st.
It’s not me by myself.
If was I allowed to complain…
I’d say it’s frightening and that I want to run away…
However, it must be done during the sousenkyo this year.


Next in line after Sasshi is me.
My last sousenkyo.
I want to end my run at Rank 1.
Everyone, I’m counting on your support.
I’m sorry for writing such a drawn-out post.
