2011.08 Duet Group Yellow
The introduction of 3 groups of Fresh Juniors. First those 5 with cute smiles.
Topic is a favourite phrase. Check their profiles as well!
Hanyuda Amu - „Independence and self-esteem“
It's Fukuzawa Yukichi (founder of Keio University) phrase meaning “Think for yourself, do something about it yourself, retain your dignity”. The homeroom teacher and parents everyone respected when in elementary school always told me “Live independently and with self-esteem”, it became my motto. Same goes for Jr. activities, even though my little sister sent in the application, it was me who decided to do it, and I'll give my best at studying and club activities as well!

Sato Shori - „The hawk with abilities polishes his claws!“
In third grade I read a Manga with Honda Soichiro-san, the founder of the Honda Company as hero, and thought “motor bikes and cars are great”, coming to like it. When I got into middle school I read a compilation of Honda-san's famous phrases, so “The hawk with abilities polishes his claws”, meaning it doesn't hide it claws but polishes them more and more, was written there. I have to give my best at polishing my dancing, singing and talking skills I think.

Yo Marius - “Being nice to other people!
You know, when people enter an elevator I’m in I ask them “To which floor do you want?”, in the train I give my seat to elderly people, and when someone with heavy luggage climbs up the stairs, I make sure to ask “Can I help you?”. Because my mother praises me saying “You’re so nice” then, I will keep this up forever!”

Matsushima So - „The sweat doesn't lie.“
You know this is a phrase my PE teacher told the class when I was in 5th grade. When we were training for the rope jumping competition someone would always step on the rope. But after our teacher told us this, we thought ”Right, when we do our best there will be good results” and thought optimistically, because we practiced a lot together.

Kuramoto Kaoru - „Passion“
I like the phrase passion. Because at school my teacher told me “Passion will become like gasoline. When you're passionate, you can run towards your dream. ” What I'm passionate about and burning for is dance! At first I was bad at it, “No good!”, but now I'm on a moderate level. From now on I'm giving my all to get from rather good, to quiet well, to pretty good, to great, to the last is god level!
