Personal connections with soccer

Yoshizawa Hitomi

I have become friends with well known people from the soccer world after starting futsal.


First of all, The Gatas coach is former Japanese soccer representative Mr Kitazawa Tsuyoshi.

The person that gave us the name "GatasBrilhantes H.P" Is actually Mr. Kitazawa.

Kitazawa san is the number one pillar that supports Gatas. He is a large existence, from his words to his actions.

As for me, when something happens I rely on the coach, but Coach is a person that feels a players independence, and often says to me "When something happens, find a solution with your comrades."

And then, Sawa Homare-san from "Nadeshiko Japan" has treated me well, and we talk about various things.

I often watch Sawa-san's games, each play is very educational.

Sawa-san is a "Japan Representative" and has that as a big burden but, when I listen to Sawa-san's stories like the difficulty of gathering a team together, or the pressure before a match, I feel that she is feeling the same things as me.

And, I learned that, regardless the situation, the most final most important thing as a player is the "Feeling to fight."

The power of supporters

Yoshizawa Hitomi

At the Gatas matches, there are always a great number of people that gather to be there.Their existence gives us a very big strength to us.


At a match I feel like "I can't lose, I've got to try my best!" when I see the supporters that bring flags to support us that they've made, or when they wear a uniform with "number 10" like me, and cheer us on.

It dosent matter what match grounds, its atmosphere is that of the Gatas Home, and mostly never is that of the Away team. To be able to do matches in such and atmosphere is all thanks to the supporters.

I would like to work harder to become an even stronger team for everyone that is cheering us on with all their might.

Athlete's personality
Yoshizawa Hitomi

This is Yoshizawa Hitomi.
I will once again go back to talking about futsal.

In sports, It is often said that an athletes personality is reflected in their play.
I feel that especially in soccer or futsal, the personality often becomes apparent.

For example, Mikitty really hates to lose so, even if there is or isn't an opponent in front of her, she aims for the goal and steadily goes for the front.

Rika-chan also hates to lose, but maybe because she liked watching sports in the first place, there are times when she gets in the most beneficial positions. She has a calm composure, and can look out around her during the match, so she does good plays in good settings.

When I think about it, I feel that everyone in Gatas is in a very suitable position right now.

Hello! 10th PARTY@ZEPP FUKUOKA
Yoshizawa Hitomi

The Hello! Project event marking the 10th year of the fan club "Hello! 10thParty" Was held on the 23rd in Fukuoka.

This event had the feelings of "gratitude" for the fans.
There were very fresh groups that did not exist untill now with Shimizu Saki, Tokunaga Chinami, Sudou Maasa, Kumai Yurina, Sugaya Risako from Berryz Koubou,and Konno Asami, and then me, Yoshizawa Hitomi and it was very enjoyable.

I was called "Old man" all day but, it was very fun and it was the first event in a while and I spent a great time with all the fans.

The handshake event was fun too~.
I will keep music important from now on too!
Please take care of Hello! Project from now on also.

Ah! I was also able to say the talking line in "The☆Peace" and it was awesome~! THANK YOU!

Mutou Mika

Hello. This is Mutou Mika.

Right now I am participating in the Ongaku Gatas first concert tour. I am trying my best not to stand in the way of my seniors on stage.



Up until now I didn't know what my special skill was, but Tsunku-san praised my dancing.

So because of that, of course with singing but, especially dancing is what i would like to work on, and would like to be able to shine in front of the fans.

As for the futsal side, I have been allowed to participate in a number of matches but, when i first played in a match as a Gatas member, I felt some reservation towards the other team and had a feeling like "Is this ok?"

But, on January 20th, the first match of the year, the coach said "You can do it. Go score a point!" and I felt like "is it alright?" and participated midway.

Eventually I received the ball and thought "I can do it!" but I got nervous and missed the goal.

After that Kore-chan said "Next time will be ok so calm down." Next time we stole the ball from the opponent and got a free, I was able to score.

All the members rushed over to where I was and was delighted, and I was very happy.

I am a fan of Nakamura Shunsuke since I was little.

The number I have on my back right now "25" is the number that Nakamura athlete has in Cerutti, so when I received it I was very happy.

I am left handed like Nakamura athlete and I would like to to plays as cool as Nakamura athlete.

Sawada Yuri

I am Sawara Yuri. Please look after me.


The Ongaku Gatas first concert tour in Tokyo has ended without any troubles.

At the begining I was very nervous, and had insecurities, but when the performance started, the distance to the fans was very close, and i could see the fan's individual faces, and there was a very good feeling of nervousness so, it was a very fun concert.

But saying that, I will still continue to change so, at the next Nagoya, Osaka performances, I would like to do a more better performance.

Fans from Nagoya and Osaka, please look forward to it!

Yoshizawa-san is cool, when she plays futsal, or sings or dances and in general.

During the concert rehersal, she gave me lots of advice, and when she had to scold me she scolded me, but when it was break time, she makes me laugh.

She is a senior that I can really respect, and I feel that I would like to be like that someday.

I did ball games during elementry school and middle school, and am good at ball games, but I still can not do futsal very expertly.

There is still a distance of skill from my seniors so, I would like to shorten that distance even by a little, and I would not like to lose to the members, that joined in the same period as me, as rivals in a good way.

I would like to practice singing and dancing and futsal with all my effort, and become much much better.
