Whoa! What is that expression?

She’s all grown up now.

If we had met back then…

Her forehead’s showing! Gorgeous.

Is she a fairy? That’s a hair shot.

Everyone, look, hurry.

Hello, I’m Kawasaki Sakura.

Oh, no, that’s wrong, I’m Sakahara Satsuki.

Sakura, Sakura.

Wait a second.

I’m sorry, um…

I got a little too hyped up.

Okay! So with that—

I’ll be presenting

Kawasaki Sakura-chan’s

first photo book.

Excuse me.

Look! So cute! The back cover’s cute too,

but this front cover

is the one I really love.

I’m about to start the presentation, but

I honestly think it suits her more

than anyone else in the world, this outfit.

And the lighting that day too.

The angle of her little hands is perfect.

Thank you very much.

So, right away then—will I be okay?

Will I make it back alive?

Here I go.

Whoa!

So it starts from a shot like this.

Kind of…

You know, a bit…

It has that youth vibe.

A lot.

Ah, ah, wait a second.

I just found a favorite shot,

whoa…

Wait a second.

I can’t save it.

I’m not allowed to save it.

In my

eyes I’ve saved it though.

Just so it’s easy to understand…

Adorable.

I’m just…

gonna be stuck with this face forever.

What is this expression?

Huh?

I want to make this kind of face too,

but when I do it,

it ends up looking too strong.

Like some kind of pipe,

or like a parasol.

Like this,

you know—

protecting?

I’m the one protecting?

What? It’s nice that she’s by the tree.

Over there too,

right?

She’s got a ponytail.

So it’s seventeen minutes long?

She’s all grown up now.

If we had met back then…

I’m in trouble.

Every year, the antenna bangs are amazing.

This is so her.

It definitely is.

Wearing earphones and all.

What are you listening to?

Lend me one ear.

Lend me one earbud, now.

Huh?

She’s so cute,

and so natural,

what is this…

I’m starting to spin weird fantasies again.

I seriously hate this.

I want to say, “That’s the jacket I lent her.”

Everyone gets it.

This almost-kiss.

I actually haven’t really seen it yet, but

The middle.

It’s about this far in.

They’re using two pages to show it.

There’s one where it goes all “paah.”

I want to say, “This is my jacket.”

Cute.

Ah, this is that one.

Cute.

Her forehead’s showing.

Her forehead’s showing.

Wait.

Somehow, just a bit…

I had thought it had kind of a first-time vibe, but

Is that wrong?

It suddenly started.

It was in the preview cuts too, but

On this tree,

they’re making the green the bark.

Beautiful.

Is she a fairy?

This is that one, right.

This is that one, right.

It’s my favorite pink.

She looks so beautiful, but…

Wait, this, you know—

I love every photo of her in this outfit.

This is probably

This is probably

Sakura just barely as a bride.

Oh no.

From here on, it’s like Sakura—

a “How will she wear it?” photo book.

Even if I’m putting out this many delusional outfits,

is it okay, I wonder.

I’m sorry, Sakura.

Don’t leave me, okay?

So cute.

She’s so cute, but—

From here on, together

I can see a future where we walk a happy life.

She is seriously cute.

If a girl like this were by my side forever,

it could only be pure happiness.

Whoa.

Light is streaming in between her fingers,

it’s so beautiful.

It’s a hair shot.

They’re all hair shots, though.

Gorgeous.

I honestly

wanted to become

a girl like Sakutan, but

I thought it was impossible for me,

that I could never be like Kawasaki Sakura.

Are you stupid?

Thank you so much.

Cute.

Sakura in casual clothes—

her face is irresistible.

She’s insanely cute, though.

Cute.

She’s a bit casual, but

Sakutan isn’t overly sweet here.

You don’t really get to see that often, do you?

This.

Whoa.

You can’t pick a number one for this, can you?

You just can’t decide on a number one.

Whoa.

I wonder if I’m allowed to say this.

In the photo with two shots side by side,

the empty space is sooo good.

Everyone, hurry up and look.

It comes up in the middle,

this blank space—

it’s lovely.

It will definitely feel nostalgic.

For about seventeen minutes,

there are scenes that make you remember Sakutan,

and stuff like that,

and you also get to see

a slightly boyish-feeling Sakutan.

Cute.

The timing when you want to become Kawasaki Sakura

really, you know,

I think that timing definitely comes for everyone.

But I realized

I will not become Kawasaki Sakura

Because there is only one Kawasaki Sakura

Thank you

For joining Nogizaka and meeting me

I’m so jealous

It’s like God’s greatest masterpiece of a book

Thank you very much

I’m taking this home

I shouldn’t, but I’ll take it home

I want it to be mine alone

So cute
