Birthday Quote

It makes me happy to have my birthday celebrated by you this year, too! I shall continue to devote myself to my training, without ever taking anything for granted…♪

Birthday Morning

1/3

♪~♪~♪ (Humming)

Let’s see… “Thank you for the birthday wishes. I’m excited for the next time we gather for circle activities~♪” —And sent!

Ah— Anzu-dono! Good morning~☆

You seem to be in a good mood, huh?

Huh? It was that obvious?

The truth is, I was reading all the birthday messages I received from everyone. I replied to Hakaze-dono just a moment ago~♪

Happy birthday.

Thank you so much! It makes me happy to get birthday wishes from you every year, Anzu-dono~♪

And the same goes with everyone else — Receiving birthday wishes makes me overjoyed with gratitude, whether it’s through a message or in person~♪

2/3

Ah, yes. I’ve got a Cheki photoshoot today, correct?1

Heh! I practiced a lot of poses for this day, so that all my fans enjoy my photos!

I also received advice from Midori-kun, as he often does gravure photoshoots.2

What kind of advice?

Ermm, he said that it’s crucial to properly listen to the cameraman’s instructions.

Hrm… Now that I think about it, that’s just the fundamentals, isn’t it…?

What sort of poses?

I’ve thought up ten different ninja poses!

I plan to display them during the photoshoot, so please do look forward to it!

3/3

Huh? I believe I received another message…?

May I read it? —Alright, I’ll gladly do so then!

Fufu. It’s from Rinne-dono. That person is also someone with a strong sense of duty and kindness to him~♪

I’m glad for you.

Mhm! I feel quite energized after receiving such heartwarming words from everyone!

I feel like I could take on a photoshoot for many hours now! I’m so excited for it~♪

It’s about time we get moving, don’t you think?

It’s certainly time we do. The photoshoot is located in the lobby, if I recall correctly.

Thanks to everyone’s messages, I’m brimming with vitality! I feel like I could take a multitude of photos!

Birthday Photoshoot

It’s time for the photoshoot! Let’s begin!

Birthday Photoshoot Start

Heeey, Anzu-dono~! (waves)

I changed my clothes to the ones for the photoshoot. I’m prepared to start anytime!

Ooh… So this is the photoshoot set! How absolutely gorgeous; there’s roses everywhere!

The atmosphere is so different from Ryuseitai’s photoshoots; it feels quite new to me somehow!

Snap!

Birthday Surprise

Huh? What is this huge box here…?

Oooh!? It’s a present for me, from all the staff members!? I’m so happy!

Alright, then I will gladly open it—

Uwaaah!?

That confetti popping out surprised me… So it was a jack-in-the-box…?

Hm, so the real present is that suit you’re holding, Anzu-dono? Thank you very much for the gift!

Snap!

Birthday Suit

This suit is perfect for my size!

Ehehe, it’s so stylish. I liked it from the moment I saw it! ♪

Thank you for such a lovely gift, Anzu-dono.

Right, let’s also take many Cheki photos in this suit! I’m in your care, Cameraman-san!

Snap!

Birthday Photoshoot in Progress

Alright, next one is: Ninja Pose Number Six!

It looked cool? I’m so happy to receive a compliment from you, Cameraman-san~♪

I still have more poses in mind, and I have some that Midori-kun taught me, too.

Hm, hm. Next up, you’d like to try taking a photo of something other than ninja poses?

Understood! I’d be glad to go with that! ♪

Snap!

Birthday Photoshoot End 1

Ooh, what a magnificent spectacle these Cheki photos make when together!

Ah— There’s a photo of me when I opened the jack-in-the-box. I’m so wide-eyed in surprise here.

The photoshoot is over now, but I still have one favor to ask, Anzu-dono, if you don’t mind.

To commemorate today’s photoshoot, I’d like Anzu-dono to take one last photo of me.

Cheki Photos

Let’s take a Cheki photo of Shinobu!
“I look forward to continuing to work with you♪”

Birthday Photoshoot End 2

Thank you! Could I have the Cheki photo you took for a moment?

I’ll write a message for Anzu-dono, and… Done! I’d like you to take this as a token of my gratitude! I am truly grateful for everything you’ve done for me today, Anzu-dono~♪

Translation Notes

  1. Cheki is a type of instant camera, like polaroid cameras.
  2. Obligatory note, since googling “gravure” often results in risque modeling—The type of gravure modeling this refers to is more akin to the fanservice of looking cool or suave in photoshoots to appeal to the viewers.
