In order to celebrate the release of their latest single, AKB48 sub-group Watarirouka Hashiritai 7 held a special live event on February 6th.
The group held a talk session and a mini-live at Tokyo’s Palette Plaza, filling the area with their adoring fans. Watarirouka Hashiritai 7 performed two of their newest songs, “Valentine Kiss” and “Kanpeki Gu No ne”, in front of an audience of approximately 5,000... including the original performer of “Valentine Kiss,” Kokusho Sayuri!
Kokusho Sayuri was one of the members of the Onyako Club, whose sub-group Ushirogami Hikaretai is the inspiration for AKB48’s own Watarirouka Hashiritai. The members of the AKB48 group were flattered that such a famous artist had taken the time to come to their performance, but also felt a little pressured. “I’m so happy I could sing ‘Valentine Kiss’ in front of Kokusho-san! It was so nervewracking”, said member Watanabe Mayu of the performance.
“I want you guys to do your best and feel proud about being idols,” said the former Onyako Club member, looking proud of the idol group. Watarirouka’s Kikuchi Ayaka turned the praise around. “Kokusho-san is here today for us, but the biggest thank you goes to you,” the idol told Kokusho with a smile. The seven girls then turned to Kokusho Sayuri and bowed, shouting “Thank you Kokusho-san!” at the same time.
