January 25th and 26th of the preview tour.
We went to Sendai in Miyagi prefecture, and Sapporo in Hokkaido.
Both days were full of snow, snow, and more snow. The wind was really strong too, so I hope everyone’s okay.
I wanted to see everyone, but I didn’t want anyone to overexert themselves…
I was worried, but in the end a lot of people came to see it.

Everyone in Sendai listened to our talk with smiles on their faces.
I wish everyone on staff could see those smiling faces!
In Sapporo, the screen was huge and the theater was very big.
I was so nervous my mind went blank several times,

but everyone listened to my not well-organized story very intently.
A big thank you to everyone in Sendai and Sapporo. I hope you were all able to return home safely.

I hope I can have this after the screenings are over…

Speaking of Miyagi and Hokkaido, the food is very good.
In Sendai I had beef tongue. So powerfully delicious… the best flavor can be found in the place it’s most famous!
Mr. Horikawa really liked the miso, so he bought some at the airport.

In Hokkaido… well, I really love ramen.
In Chitose airport, it was like a switch was turned on inside me, so I had shrimp miso ramen, miso butter corn ramen, and a half-portion of soy-sauce ramen, and ate them all no problem.
I don’t have much of a stomach for sweets, but I do have one for more ramen!

I don’t think I’ll step on a scale for a while, and keep my eyes firmly turned away from reality.
