Happy Anniversary!
\n
\nIt was 2 years ago today that Michishige Sayumi, our beloved bunny loving Morning Musume\u3002 cutie started her blog, and with it started the translations which have eventually become the totem pole for Nantonaku as it’s own free standing website. Sayumi started with a simple post welcoming us to her blog with her vision to share with us what goes on with her every day. And now with over 5285 entries in the span of two years, we are coming into Sayumi’s third year blogging!
\n
\nCongratulations to everyone involved!\u00a0 The readers of translations, the translators, her fans, her commenters, and Michishige Sayumi herself, congrats of 2 years of fun and fancy!
\n
\nWe’ve seen things come and go as she’s grown from the days of\u00a0 “My Outfit”s\u00a0 and early morning Mirror shots. If you followed her blog you’ve seen her interesting timeline from wanting an iPhone to getting an iPhone to abandoning her iPhone and beyond. We look forward to seeing where Sayu will go from here and hope that she can enjoy every minute of it!
\n
\nIn the waves of celebrating 2 years I’d also like to personally thank everyone who has ever translated her blog for the public for all the hard work everyone’s had to endure. Sferris was one of the first do so on Hyakupa, and with him and kaiguy they started off what eventually came into my hands here at Nantonaku. So I’d like to thank them for all there hard work so far as well, we wouldn’t have gotten our own website without them (and a lot of our traffic still comes through the Hyakupa url somehow)! For the fans reading translations, whether they are here or not (if not I don’t know how you are reading this but I hope the sentiment gets through), I hope you are grateful to your translators for all the hard work they’ve invested in getting you translation content. Translation is not “easy” work, especially not for free, and in the communities that thrive on being able to bridge the gap between Japanese and English (or any other language) they are a rare breed in terms of getting consistency and quality for long periods. With that said, have you thanked your translators today? \u7b11
\n
\nNow, with all that out of my brain, I hope you’ll keep on coming here for your Sayumi Michishige\u00a0Blog\u00a0translations. Whether you think of her as Sayumi Michishige or Michishige Sayumi, she is still the girl we adore and we hope that we can help other people understand what she’s thinking, one post at a time.

\nThe question now is, how do we celebrate??\u3000\u7b11<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
