On October 10th, AKB48’s newest team, ‘Team 4‘, made their theater debut with “Himawari 1st ‘Boku no Taiyou’“, at AKB48 Theater in Akihabara.
Member Shimazaki Haruka (17) expressed, “At last, we were able to welcome our first day. This theater debut marks the beginning of Team 4’s history.” Meanwhile, acting captain Shimada Haruka (18) enthusiastically stated, “We will be fresh and do our best as we take each other’s hands. Please support us!”
The 16 members that took the stage were Shimazaki, Shimada, Abe Maria (15), Ichikawa Miori (17), Iriyama Anna (15), Takeuchi Miyu (15), Nakamata Shiori (19), Nakamura Mariko (17), Nagao Mariya (17), Yamauchi Suzuran (16), and research students Izuta Rina (15), Kato Rena (14), Kawaei Rina (16), Kojima Natsuki (16), Kobayashi Marina (15), and Fujita Nana (14). Captain Ooba Mina (19) was not present at the event due to suspension from activities.
The girls performed a total of 17 songs, and each member greeted their fans with a few words. Ichikawa shouted a familiar catch phrase, “I want to become a fresh lemon~,” and continued, “I want to burst like a lemon, and live freshly so I won’t lose to my youthfulness.”
As their first performance, the girls charmed the fans with their abundant variation of stage costumes. After performing “BINGO!“, “Boku no Taiyou“, and “Yuuhi wo Miteiru Kara“, they sang AKB48’s latest single, “Flying Get“, for their encore. While being surrounded by great cheers , ‘Team 4′ successfully ended their first theater performance.
