Er, yes, I realize my selection of translations is very random, but humor me anyway :D [juudenkanryou]

Dream Live 5th, it was my first time doing a huge scale production at Yokohama Arena and Kobe Memorial Hall, and so I was disoriented when rehearsals started!!
With the start of rehearsals in May, even though it was only a short period of time, I did my best with everyone, at any rate, for the Dream Live I felt that the continuous dancing and singing were really hard!!
Making the acquaintance of my sempai for the first time, we became friends right away, it was reaaally fun so even after rehearsals that was how I felt!!
And on opening day, in the midst of my extreme nervousness, with the opening, Seigaku had started the show, and I was really moved by the blue penlights that were spread out in front of my eyes, kinda like I suddenly got goosebumps!! After that, my nervousness changed to something beyond excitement for those two hours, and those two hours were really like a dream!!
This personal experience could possibly be a valuable one that I'll only have once in my life, so without forgetting this, I'll draw from it for the summer performance and my other work, I think it will be great!!

First of all, for myself, getting to stand on a hugely amazing stage such as that, I want to start with thanking every one of the fans and all of the people. Thank you very much.
When I heard the encouragement of over ten thousand people, I got an unusual number of goosebumps. And when I stood on the stage, the scene I saw was one word, "saikou"[1]. While I was Fuji, my energy was up to the max and I really enjoyed the live, and I feel that generally everyone was even stronger than at usual performances.
Yokohama Arena is a really wide place, so it was important for all of us to reach a huge expression of our heat [2], at least that was my own task that I had.
And when we were facing senshuuraku, I feel that we ended this show with an understanding of us as ourselves.
And I've found a new task already. In the previous winter performance, and Dream Live. In the summer, I want to challenge to aim for a higher level.

[1] Meaning "the best". Since he said "one word", I couldn't very well put TWO words, could I? XD
[2] Weird literal translation is weird. Basically what he's saying is that their performances all had to be much, MUCH larger than life because the place is HUGE.

Two and a half years has passed since the curtain opened on the Rokkaku performance, but unbelievably we (Rokkaku) didn't think that we'd be able to participate in a long TeniMyu like this.
In school, the thing they can't teach is to experience so many important things, it's something you learn for yourself.
Thanks to this, I was able to grow both as a person and as a man. And, the thing I met through tennis, I was able to find my own "road", that's how I feel.
Meeting really great colleagues, the best staff, I proudly remember with all my heart the work we did together.
Everyone in the staff who supported us, the members, and every one of the fans who always cheered for us, I thank you from the bottom of my heart.
In this long while, thank you very much.
I don't know when the next time I return to this stage will be, but from now on I'm only a Saeki fan (laughs), I receive your support from the guest seating area, so from now on yoroshiku onegai shimasu.
To those who really, really cheered us on during this long time, thank you very much.
