[ENG SUB] 岡田有希子さん 衝撃的な死から一年

[Yukiko Okada-san: 1 Year on from her Shocking Suicide!!] [Her Beautiful Voice: Forever in our Hearts!] This is the Joumanji shrine, which is in the suburbs of Nagoya. Her ashes will be interred at this shrine at some point. But there are people visiting from all over the country, even now. We spoke with the chief priest of Joumanji shrine, so let’s listen. Are there still fans visiting? They still visit. Especially in March and April during the school break. Seventy or eighty in a day. Do they come from all over the country, or are they mostly local? No no, most are from the Kanto region. Tokyo and Ibaraki, Saitama, Chiba. Most visitors are from there. Do many of the people who come here cry? They sit down right here. And they start weeping, the fans. That’s not to say all of them cry, but We do see many who cry. I keep a book of sutras in my pocket for them. Because I really sympathise with these fans. It’s been a year since her death, but her ashes haven’t been interred, right? They’re still placed before the alter. Has there been any word from her mother and father? Yes, they came by on March 8th. Once they’ve finished the one-year anniversary memorial, they’ll wait for the right time to erect the gravestone. So until then, they asked if they could keep her ashes at our shrine. And when we discussed this, we told them we were very happy to look after her until that time comes. Now, we haven’t worked out the practical details yet. Her ashes are split into two urns, a larger one and smaller one. The smaller one is at the alter. And the larger one, we’re keeping here until the gravestone is ready. We keep it for the people who come to say goodbye to her. Have you ever met Yukiko Okada-chan personally? Twice, when she was in Middle School. She visited a few times, so I saw her face then. She was a good girl. Very intellectual. You remembered her face even then? I did, I did. Did you talk to her at all? Only very little. I exchanged greetings with her, like “Hello.” That’s all I ever spoke to her. I used to go to her house to play. We’d go to her room upstairs, and I’d bring two friends along. We didn’t do it for long, but the four of us would get together and talk about the entertainment world, and people we admired. My biggest memory is everyone squealing and having fun, not with Yukiko Okada, but with Kayo Satou. My first impression was she was very mature, She felt hard to approach. But when I talked to her she was really funny. She was always telling jokes and she had a really cute smile. That’s how I saw her. A year has passed since she died – since she committed suicide – has it been a long year? The first few months, I couldn’t get ahold of my feelings. The time passed so slowly. But as time passed… You look back and you realise a year has gone by before you realised. It’s not like I met Kayo-chan everyday, so when it’s the time of year she’d have a concert, Like in Spring, Summer or Autumn. Whenever a concert might be had. I get this feeling, like she’s going to have a concert again. But then I remember that she’s dead, and she’s gone. Those are the moments where I end up thinking about her. I visit her every month on the anniversary, There’s always so many flowers by the entrance, and by her ashes. And every time I visit, there’s more and more pictures. There’s so many stuffed toys, sketched drawings and photographs left there. I heard the same from her mom and granddad, There’s always a few people there. I’m really glad to see that even now, there are fans coming to visit. I spoke to her mom when I visited in March. She offered me some photographs. She first offered me some of her earrings. I told her I don’t really wear jewellery So then she gave me some of the stuffed toys And she also gave me her glasses. She always wore these glasses when we were hanging out together. She’s extremely short-sighted. The lenses are really thick, so her glasses are really distinctive. I’m glad I have them. Yukiko Okada-chan is in heaven of course but, Is there anything you’d like to say to her, Naomi-chan? I guess what I’d say is I hope you’re singing your favourite songs in heaven. I hope you can sing more freely. I hope you can always just be Kayo Satou. Obviously, her family, friends and fans can’t easily forget her. There was a music event about Yukiko-san in the town of Yatomi in Aichi. Last year, there was a Middle School teacher who put her poem ‘Little Bird’ to song. He organised this event. It was in the newspapers how he was turning her poems into music. And for the anniversary of her death, her fans have gathered to sing these songs. Her posthumous song ‘Hana no Image’ was included, and everyone sang it together. [Yesterday – Yatomi Town Hall (Amagun District, Aichi Prefecture)] [Her fans jumped in to sing Hana no Image] Are your feelings for Yukiko Okada-san still the same as before? Yes, yes they are. They’ll be the same forever. It doesn’t matter what other people say. To me, she’s the singer Yukiko Okada. So, I’ll always remember Yukiko Okada as a singer more than anything else. I started to really cry halfway through. The memories of Yukiko were unbearable. Who is Yukiko Okada to you? She’s a huge part of me. I look up to her so much. It’s like they said at the event. She’s Cinderella. And in the past year, no one has replaced her? Of course. There’s no one for me but Yukiko.

チャンネルを見てくださってありがとうございます。
今後も岡田有希子さんに関する動画をアップしていくつもりです。

どのワイドショーかは分かりません。 また、00:27 のカットは私が入れたものじゃありません。

タイトルは「自○」ではなく「死」にしたのは、動画がおすすめに出にくくなると思ったからです
