ENG Sub - Maeda Kaori got approached by a creepy fan named Homoto Akina on the train

Here's some Homoto Akina content for you guys lol. I only screen-recorded the second part so the quality is pretty bad, but the slight muffling of her voice was because of the noise-cancelling microphone she bought around 3 months ago.
And to give more context to how they arrived to that topic, a fan from overseas sent her a limited-edition Monster Energy backpack which she showed off to her viewers. A fan joked about how they would immediately know it's her if they ever see a girl walking around with that backpack because it's not being sold in Japan. And that's when they started talking about how Japanese people would barely approach famous people when they see them in public places because they're shy. Homin usually talks about extreme otaku stuff in her channel, like how she takes her oshi characters to dates in cafes when they get collabs and talks to them sweetly. But I figured some people still didn't know about this side of her so I subbed these clips lol.
The first video is from the opening stage of Live Live! SIF Kanshasai 2021, while the second video is from the 76th episode of Homoto Akina's weekly radio show called Akinasanchi.
Seiyuus in the video:
(Osaka Shizuku) Maeda Kaori - light blue
(Nakasu Kasumi) Sagara Mayu - yellow
(Tennoji Rina) Tanaka Chiemi - grey
(Lanzhu Zhong) Homoto Akina - i didn't bother to put a font color because she was talking by herself lol

Minmin really went from "omg I'm so nervous is that really Maeda Kaori™?" to "I'll ask her about it later", what a nice character development

[@AkiRie-bi3ek]

Kaorin´s version: oh yeah so she was there and come to me really nice and said "oh are you Kaori-san?" Homin's version: OH MY GOD IS HER? IS IT REALLY HER? IS THERE A WAY TO KNOW? WHAT IF SHE IS NOT? WHAT DO I DO? OH MY GOD OH MY GOD **starts sweating**

If this was outside the train, she would be 120% sure its Kaorin. Kaorin would probably be holding a beer or something 😅

THIS IS GOLD💀💀

HOLY SHIT i can't even think of any other "What If" scenario perfectly than this LMAO 😂

[@fandyllic1975]

This actually does a good job explaining how in Japanese culture it is considered shocking for a stranger to talk to you on a train… even if they really aren’t a stranger. Then again, I was shocked to find out how small Kaori Maeda is… I guess many people might think they are intimidating, in that case.

Thinking about Lanzhu and Shizuku’s interactions in sifas makes this hilarious

[@1.1kSubChallengeWithoutAnyVid]

Btw are they Chinese or Japanese? I'm not into love live but that utopia song is pretty good so i was digging and I'm confused atm

[@ReimeiStar]

@@1.1kSubChallengeWithoutAnyVid Lanzhu seiyuu Akina Homoto is half Chinese and can speak Mandarin, but she was born and live mostly in Japan. The other one Chinese seiyuu in LL is Liyuu (Keke Tang from Liella) and she was born and mostly live in China. All other seiyuus are Japanese. (also English is not my language so i hope i didnt say anything wrong and you understand what i say)

"...like how she takes her oshi characters to dates in cafes when they get collabs and talks to them sweetly." Oh my gosh that's so cute & relatable!!! Houmin is totally my oshi now!

[@niji_banana]

When she started to talk about how she opened twitter to check Kaorin's recent images so she could confirm it was definitely Kaorin I literally died of laughter XD Thank you so much for subs!

[@Chris-wy9sp]

5:41 your annotations are the best lol

[@aslamnurfikri7640]

Imagine Homin went that far, greeted her anyway, and turned out she's NOT Kaorin!

[@hafiyfiyirfan6976]

Thanks for translating

[@StrikeFreedom72]

[@yuriodesu]

[@qwertyuio53]
