For the TV show Kamen Rider OOO, in the role of Hina Izumi, Riho Takada finished filming today!!! It’s finally over….(>_<) Actually I can’t say that I believe that it’s over already.

I don’t really know what I should write or how to put my feelings in order, but I can at least tell you how I feel right now.

One year really went by fast.

In the beginning I was even more of a beginner than I am now, so I had a lot of worries about not knowing what I should do. But as the show started to air I naturally became aware of myself and my responsibilities. Since everyone was always cheering me on happily and warmly, I decided to work harder and harder, and my feelings about acting slowly got better.

You could say, “It must be tough moving all the way to Tokyo,” but I didn’t have the time to feel lonely like that. The past year has been so stimulating, I really felt like I was in the best possible environment! I would go to the set and the same cast and staff were always there. On my blog and when I would go do theater greetings I could hear the fans’ voices too. (o^^o)

But as you might expect, after a year of filming like this somehow it became the usual. I’ve been told that it’s pretty natural to feel like that.

In the 16 years I’ve been alive, you could say this has been my most productive year. (^-^)/

I can’t clearly say how, but compared to a year ago, I feel like I’ve changed and grown up!
To the cast, staff, all the fans, and everyone involved, I’m full of gratitude for each and every one of you. Thank you very much for supporting me for the past year!!!! I’m happy to have played that girl Hina Izumi for a year.

The show is still airing!♪ Please watch Kamen Rider OOO through to the end.
Thank you from the bottom of my heart.
