"はい, CUT, thank you for your hard work!"
On a rooftop in Tokyo, it was not until dusk that they finished shooting the MV for "ポピパッパパー". I thought this indoor non-plot version of the MV would be simpler. The MV had no plot overall and was shot in a recording studio. From the members After entering the recording studio, changing clothes in the lounge, practicing dance and other daily routines began. The members lined up in front of the camera and danced while quickly singing the chorus consisting only of hakanagana. Everything else was fine, except for the lip-syncing scene, which was very hard to shoot and took nearly five hours to complete.
In terms of music, if the lyrics are removed from this song, Da Shenying still thinks it is good and has a lot of feeling, but after adding it, it feels silly, especially the line "We're Nogizaka46, forty six", which is very shameful.
This is the last work of the day. Because some members of the group have age restrictions, they cannot continue to work after eight o'clock. Other external affairs cannot start at this point and will simply be disbanded.
"Whoa whoa whoa~"
Coming out of the room, everyone was blocked by the heavy downpour outside.
"It's raining...it's still sunny this morning."
The great condor stretched out her hand, extending out of the protective range of the eaves. Cold rain patted on the back of her hand. The frequency and density told her that if she didn't hold an umbrella, she would be drowned within ten seconds.
"Nana Sai, did you bring an umbrella?" The Great Condor asked Nishino Nanase beside him.
"I didn't bring it, and I didn't expect it to rain today."
The two made an appointment to go shopping tonight and asked the agent to go back early, otherwise they could still catch a ride.
"Well... let me borrow an umbrella."
The Great Condor pondered for a while and scanned the surrounding members. Saito Asuka was playing with the umbrella in his hand. The great condor walked towards Saito Asuka. At this time, Asuka Saito was chatting with Nana Hashimoto about something.
"Hey, Shame!"
The big condor trotted over and patted Saito Asuka on the shoulder.
"Scared me to death!" Saito Asuka was so frightened by her that he covered his chest and said subconsciously. "You're so annoying!"
Saito Asuka pursed her lips and punched her weakly, then hit the big condor with his small fist, without any deterrent effect.
"Hehe, can you lend me your umbrella? I didn't bring an umbrella today." The great condor lay on Saito Asuka's back and hugged her from behind.
"Don't get so close to me... It's so itchy..." Saito Asuka shrugged, "Nanamin, did you bring an umbrella?"
"Bring it."
Hashimoto Nana lifted the bag in her hand and indicated that the umbrella was in the bag.
"for you."
Seeing that Hashimoto Nana had brought an umbrella, it was not impossible to lend it to the Great Condor. He could just go with Hashimoto Nana.
"Thank you, love you."
The great condor took the umbrella and left a faint lip mark on Saito Asuka's face. After getting the umbrella, the Great Condor and Nishino Nanase said goodbye to everyone and walked towards the commercial street.
As soon as he left the building, the Great Condor felt that half of his shoulders were soaked by the rain. When he looked up, he saw that the size of this umbrella was far from being able to cover two people at the same time. This single-person umbrella was more than enough for one person, but it was far away for two people. Not enough anymore.
"Huh~"
Cars were speeding down the street, passing the two of them one after another.
The great condor held the umbrella and deliberately slowed down. Nishino Nanase noticed the behavior of the great condor and looked at her strangely. The great condor circled around behind Nishino Nanase and protected Nishino Nanase on the sidewalk. On one side, he stood on the other side of the street, and moved his umbrella towards Nishino Nanase, completely protecting Nishino Nanase so that the raindrops could not hit her.
The shoulders of the great condor were exposed.
"Let's go eat first, I'm so hungry." The Great Condor said, rubbing his belly.
"Okay, I know there is a conveyor belt sushi restaurant that is very delicious, and I haven't eaten there in a long time."
"okay."
Sushi... The Great Condor usually doesn't go there to eat. When she went, she just ate sushi made from meat on land. But if Nishino Nanase wanted to go, she had no problem with it.
Nishino Nanase led the way. The journey was not long, and they arrived in just ten minutes. The sushi restaurant was very large and there were a lot of people. They were lucky. A table of customers happened to leave when they arrived.
Sitting on the sofa, the two took off their coats and placed them next to them. Nishino Nanase found that one of the shoulders of the Great Condor was soaked.
She pursed her lips, but didn't say anything.
One of the great benefits and highlights of conveyor belt sushi is that it’s fast. You can get what you want right away without having to wait after ordering. The Great Condor looked around and saw that it was basically fish and shrimp. She only got some chicken sushi.
"Try this, the fish roe is delicious."
Nishino Nanase took a plate of sushi from the caterpillar track and placed it in front of her. The red fish roe was spread on it, which was very tempting.
"Um..." The Great Condor looked at the sushi in front of him awkwardly and said, "I don't eat seafood."
"Ah, I'm sorry..." Nishino Nanase's smiling face just now suddenly faded a lot. "I'm so sorry that I dragged you here to eat sushi. Let's find another restaurant."
Saying that, Nishino Nanase wanted to pay the bill.
"No, no, no, I'll see how it's done. I love takoyaki, so you can order it here." The Great Condor stopped Nishino Nanase.
She didn't want Nishino Nanase to blame himself so much. In her opinion, this was a good thing. The two were gradually getting to know each other, and food preferences were a good starting point.
The Great Condor ordered a takoyaki, a bowl of ramen, and tempura, while Nishino Nanase ordered the seafood sushi.
"Nana Sai."
"Um?"
"You know so much about game consoles, do you like playing games?"
The great condor licked its mouth and asked while chewing.
"Well, yes, when I was at home, I often played games with my brother. When I was at home, I would either read comics or play games."
"Hey... it's so fun. When I was in school, I heard the boys in my class discussing, uh, what, what kind of hunters..."
"Monster Hunter!" Nishino Nanase said with bright eyes.
"Ah, yes, that seems to be the name."
"It's so fun. I like this game the most."
"The name sounds like... it's the type of fighting and killing." Da Shenying didn't feel much about it. She basically didn't have much contact with games. In terms of electronics, the thing she had the most contact with was television.
"That's true, but the biggest selling point is hunting monsters, which is the same as the name of the game. You can also buy one and we can play together."
After saying so much in one breath, Nishino Nanase even forgot to put something in his mouth.
"I...well, let's take a look."
"It's really fun! Let me tell you, there are many series of Monster Hunter. The latest one is Monster Hunter 4G, which has 14 kinds of weapons. The core gameplay is to collect materials, hunt monsters, make equipment, and then challenge stronger monsters. , there are many equipments with different functions, there are many types of monsters, and their moves and weaknesses are very different..."
When it comes to things that interest him, Nishino Nanase seems to be a different person, talking endlessly about the world that is filled with powerful vitality. The last time I saw her like this was when I discovered that I was also a JOJO fan. The two of them talked a lot together.
Nishino Nanase in this state is a 'rare species'.
The two of them were chatting and eating, or rather, Nishino Nanase was speaking unilaterally, and the Great Condor was listening.
But the Great Condor didn't understand what she was talking about at all.
Looking at Nishino Nanase talking to her, what she heard was completely going in from the left ear and out from the right ear, such as monster moves, enhancements, dragons, etc. She tried to understand, but she couldn't. Attention slowly focused on Nishino Nanase himself.
It's easy to be with her. This feeling... is somewhat similar to the last time I went to the amusement park with Mai Shiraishi.
The Great Condor looked directly at Nishino Nanase. Nishino Nanase, who gave her the Amway game, did not notice anything unusual until Nishino Nanase noticed that the Great Condor stretched out his hand towards her.
"How..." Nishino Nanase instinctively wanted to step back.
"do not move."
"..."
When she said this, Nishino Nanase remained motionless except for the slight trembling of his eyelashes.
The Great Condor stretched out his hand, and put his cold fingers on Nishino Nanase's warm cheek. Like a dragonfly touching water, Nishino Nanase only felt something cool touching him, and then moved away. The Great Condor retracted his hand, and there were still a few grains of rice on his hand, which he had obviously just taken from the corner of his mouth.
"Well... just tell me, I can do it myself..."
"Sorry, I saw you were so serious, I didn't want to interrupt you." The Great Condor said, putting the rice grains on the used sushi plate.
"Anymore?"
Nishino Nanase touched his face and asked.
"No, it's very cute."
"..."
When the Great Condor said this, Nishino Nanase was a little shy. He also thought about how the Great Condor had wet half of his shoulders for him just now and had been protecting himself on the inside of the street. His face was a little rosy for some reason.
"So, what's the use of that flute you just mentioned?"
Although he didn't understand it, it didn't stop the Great Condor from taking over. Seeing the Great Condor asking this, Nishino Nanase continued to tell her about the game Monster Hunter with great interest, holding on to the determination that 'she must be dragged into the pit'.
After all, it is a wonderful thing to have someone to play games with. She has also tried to get others to play with her, but none of the Nogizaka members seem to like playing this kind of game. The one who has persisted the longest is Saito Yu. , but I stopped playing it a long time ago.
