I want to join so badly…
I want to do all those cool dances and chatter and giggle with the other members…

I have thought I’d like to be reborn as Tanaka Reina or Takahashi Ai even though I’m a guy. Being able to stand on stage and sing like that must be so fun.

I seriously just want to go shopping with girls like Ikuta, Fuku-chan or Daaishi.

A sweat-drenched middle-aged man jumping about on stage.
Us sweat-drenched middle-aged men in the audience, shouting and swinging our glow sticks.

This is the heaven we had been longing for.

I remember the server of this board crashing during her graduation concert.

1,000,000 yen [US$9750] for front row seats… that was messed up.

It made the news how there were thousands of wota outside who couldn’t fit inside Yokohama Arena.

That was the last real big H!P event. My wota friend made 500,000 yen [US$4850] thanks to that concert.

I was laughing during the afternoon show when Takahashi and Niigaki were already crying. Then at the evening performance I was again laughing when Takahashi was crying aloud during the very first song.

But I was crying more.

I got an email from Kamei Eri-chan, saying:
“Sayuuu! The green thing! Poster! Yep! It’s huge!”
I had considerable difficulty trying to comprehend it. (laughs)
Very Eri-like.

Afterwards she sent me a picture as well:

It’s too far to really tell what it is!! (laughs)
Looks like she’ll always keep being Eri.

It’s not a poster, Eririn.
It’s a billboard, Eririn.

Enlighten a newbie.

Whenever she laughed, everything would fall into place.

Her ambition as a performer was almost nonexistent — but that’s what made her so appealing.

It feels like she’s right there… and yet she’s not.

Best of Wota in Translation 2013

Here’s a selection of 30 threads I found especially memorable in 2013 (listed in the order I posted them), probably most useful to those of you who only found this site recently and are too lazy to read through everything posted so far. (Although I have to say: if you enjoy what you see on this list, it might be a good idea to go back and read through the archives anyway — there’s a lot more good stuff to be found there.) Here’s to hoping the list of 2014 will be even better!

Did I miss anything? What were your favorites from 2013?

What do you do if you run into a friend? Or a co-worker? How do you take care of crisis prevention?

2: 名無し募集中。。。 2013/11/14(木) 12:49:42.53 0
By staying at home.

Friends or co-workers are no problem. What’s embarrassing is when you run into people who you only kind of know.

I ran into a friend from my junior high days at an event. We both pretended like we didn’t know each other.

The way she says it is too cute.

Ah, yep. That’s the reaction of a virgin. No doubt about it.

When my oshi gets popular, it makes me lose all interest in her. Is this strange?

To list some past oshi members of mine for example… Ichii, Kamei, Risako, Maimi, Yuukarin, Kanatomo, etc etc.

Me, too. When she’s supported by so many, I lose interest.

3: 名無し募集中。。。 2013/11/20(水) 01:12:57.24 0
All of a sudden there’s so many Michishige wota, I can’t go on supporting her anymore.

This must be common in guys with a strong desire to monopolize.

The way you say it, it doesn’t feel like they were ever your “oshi members” to begin with. It just sounds like curiosity to me. Sort of like people who have never truly loved anyone, you’ve never truly oshi’ed anyone.
