  1. Awesome translations as usual, but maybe providing a little background when posting these kind of threads would be useful. Like who is this guy and what has he said?

    • That’s fair enough. But in my view, the humor of this thread isn’t so much in *who* this guy is, but rather in how even though he’s seemingly someone famous, he’s really just another Risako fan who now finds themselves going “what happened?”

  2. It sure hit him hard. Even for me, who is not a Risako fan, still took me a while to get away from my PC after re- watching all Berryz great songs after reading her announcement.

  3. This will always be the creepy side of wota to me. Yeah, Risako shocked us all, but damn, losing the will to live when your favourite idol gets married…

    • Unless there’s something of particular note, I tend to think of those types of comments in the same way I do someone saying “I would die for a piece of cake right now.”

      You don’t actually want to die. You just -really- want some cake. Like these fans were -really- surprised/caught off gaurd.

      I think you’re taking them too seriously.

  4. I wasn’t very surprised myself. I have seen many people express the opinion before on Risako’s appearance, calling it “banging”.

      • But “fat ugly cow” seems to be skinnier than most “really fatass” male wota somehow? :P

        • Men aren’t valued purely for their bodies, unlike women who are worthless if they aren’t pretty.

          • If that was even true I wouldn’t be freshly out of battling with BDD, as a dude

      • Maasa is the really fat one. I mean, even westerners would’ve called her fat at some point, she looked legit like 166cm and about 75kg, for Asians this is even worse, should be 5kg less (because BMI 23+ is already obese), 14kg to big. Rii-Chan was just a bit chubby 161cm maybe 55-61kg most of the time.

          • Yeah, but there was a time when she was seriously fat, like obese for Japanese standards (http://livedoor.blogimg.jp/akb48newsmatome2/imgs/4/f/4fe38169.jpg), wasn’t talking about her nowadays. She’s still horribly yo-yo dieting. Earlier this year she was a lot bigger again then at her sotsugyo, saw her with Yurina, then at C-ute’s last concert she was fuckin’ thin like what happened and again just a few months later, last time I saw her she gained a bunch of weight again. She should really see a nutrishionist… binging and starving isn’t the solution in this.

              • Nah, I think she would have more gains and less fat if she’d work out with weight and professionally, that’s probably what she did before her photobook (at least the cutting, not the bulking) but I doubt she does it nowadays. Just looks a bit to untrained and flabby for that to some degree.

  5. Just watched him on a recent AKBingo, apparently about dealing with the issue with this “certain idol”. And he’s currently looking for distraction among the AKB girls prolly a way to cope with the pain hahaha.

      • Just 2 months ago he was talking about ANGERME, he’s still a fan of them. His favorite is Rikako but he also likes Kamiko and Ayacho, but they’re probably nothing compared to his first H!P oshi.

  6. I watched Risako grow up… Wow, those were fun years. I just really hope she has a happy and fulfilling life.
