[Translation] Kisumai Jweb entries 9 Jul 2020
July 9th 2020 was the first death anniversary of Johnny-san.
This day last year, Kisumai were performing live at NHK's Utacon, with the same kira kira smiles despite they're mourning.
At July 12th 2019, they had to be absent from Johnny-san's funeral since they had to be in Osaka for FREE HUGS concert, that was gonna start that day. They were the first group who held a concert after Johnny-san's departure.
I can't even imagine their emotions that day.
I still remember the atmosphere and their mood during that first day of Osaka performance. They were more emotional than usual, the way they kept mentioning Johnny-san during MC or closing remarks, the way they sang Makenaide, how their eyes were teary as they're holding back their tears... It all weren't recorded into DVD so what I have is only this fading memory in my mind...
I'm doing this translation as a note for myself. I'm not planning to keep translating Jweb entries in the future, I only want to remember this day, as some of the boys wrote their feelings towards him.

Hi, this is Senga.
Exactly one year has passed since Johnny-san departed.
Memories of Johnny-san rushed through my mind.
In my heart, I silently sent him a message
So that he'd continue to watch over us, talents of Johnny's & Associates, as we keep trying to deliver happiness to people supporting us.
This is us going back to basic.
It will soon be our 10th debut year, let us show our commitment to work hard so we can bring more happiness to everyone.
Well then.

This is Taisuke.
I wonder if everyone's doing okay?
I am doing fine!
More like I'm feeling as usual though.
LOL
Today is Johnny-san's first death anniversary.
I feel that time flies too fast.
Since then, I feel like days had been endlessly turbulent.
Please watch over us.
We will do whatever it is that's within our capability!
For a peaceful everyday life.
======================
Only three of them updated their Jweb about Johnny-san. Mitsu updated one more entry but it has nothing to do with Johnny-san (instead it was about Sorajiro LOL).
I think everyone is coping with this differently. The way they wrote or didn't write a thing, doesn't measure the amount of feeling they might have towards their father. I'm glad the 3 of them are open enough to show their feelings out (well Mitsu's only consisted of one word, but I think that represents a lot...)
Thank you for everything Johnny-san, I wish you can see how this group that you picked up among the outcasts is doing this year. I hope you'd be proud of them :)
❤❤❤
