Karen Iwata's great uncle is a famous actor
Iwata: “My grandmother’s younger brother is Harada Daijirou-san ”
Others: “What?! DAIJIROU!?”
Iwata: “We met and dined together, he’s been taking good care of me since young,”
Ariyoshi: “What did you call him then??
Iwata: “Dai-san”
Ariyoshi: “Wow…that’s amazing, your mom too, is a local talent?”
Iwata: “Yeah…I was born in Sendai, Miyagi, where she was a radio DJ, but when I joined AKB she quit to be with me,”
Ariyoshi:“Any others?”
Iwata: “When my mom was younger, Kankuro Kudo, the director of JeJeJe (Ama-chan) was her relative, I think,”
Ariyoshi: “You’re surrounded by awesome people!!”
Matsui Sakiko's dad taught Kojiharu's brother
As usual, blur Kojiharu mixes up names again.
Matsui: My dad was form teacher of Kojima-san’s brother’s class.
Kojiharu: Ah! I think…he taught me Physical Education before, if I remember correctly…
Matsui: It’s Mathematics.
Ariyoshi: You’ve been studying PE from your maths teacher?! -Hahahaha-
Oshima Ryoka has smelly feet
First we had Kawaei, here comes a new challenger to the Smelly Feet Senbatsu… …Oshima Ryoka!
Oshima: “When I went home and was waiting for dinner, I thought we were having nattou, but the smell came from my feet!”
Oshima: “Then I realised how stinky my feet was!”
Oshima: “It’s not that stinky today, ’cause it’s winter.”
Members take turns to sniff.
Matsui: “Mmmmm…smells like POPCORN!”
Iwata: “It’s NOT POPCORN AT ALL!“
Kojiharu: “IT STINKS! I can even taste the stink!”
And that’s it for another episode of AKB Kyouwaku. We hope you’ve had a better understanding of your favourite AKB48 members (and what their feet smells like) after reading this!
