Akina Nakamori Starts Twitter but Cannot Declare “Seen Person” Behind the Scenes

Singer Akina Nakamori has suddenly made a move.

On August 30, a Twitter account under her own name and an official website appeared. There, a letter that she had written for her fans was published. Akina wrote

I apologize for the worry I have caused you for a long time. I am writing this letter because my health is getting better, though only a little. This year, 2022, will be 40 years since my debut.

I have been dealing with my health condition on a daily basis, hoping to do something to mark the 40th anniversary of my debut, but I cannot say that I am in perfect physical condition yet,” she confessed.

He confessed, “I am still not in perfect physical condition. He continued

I will start walking, though it will be slowly, so I hope you will watch over me.

I hope you will watch over me. She also reported that she had established a new private office.

Akina’s fans, who had been eagerly awaiting her return, were delighted. As of the second day of the event, the number of followers on Twitter exceeded 430,000.

However, there are some aspects of the media’s reporting that are troubling. While some companies identified the person as Akina Nakamori, others wrote in a more ambiguous manner, such as “a person claiming to be Akina Nakamori,” or “a person who looks like Akina Nakamori. A reporter in charge of music for a sports paper explained the reason for this.

A reporter in charge of music for a sports paper explained, “We couldn’t get the full story. As of August 30, when she opened her Twitter page, no company was able to confirm that it was Akina herself. In the end, since the autograph at the end of the letter closely resembles Akina’s handwriting, we concluded that it was most likely her.

He continues, “We were not able to find out the reason for the situation.

How did this happen?

Mr. X, who had been managing Akina, and the record company were completely unaware of the situation. The media contacted Mr. X, who was Akina’s contact person, but he himself came out of the blue. Even when we tried to contact Mr. X immediately, he said he could not get through to Ms. Akina.

The media contacted Mr. X, Akina’s point of contact, but the person himself was shocked out of the blue.

It is conceivable that Akina may open a Twitter account and establish a new agency on her own initiative, but people who know her are unanimous in saying that this is not possible.

After all, Akina didn’t have a cell phone until recently,” said one person who knows her. She used her home phone for all communication.

It is hard to believe that she would suddenly be able to make full use of Twitter. As for her new agency, it is hard to believe that she will be able to proceed with the procedures while she is not in good health.

There are rumors in the industry that there is a “mastermind” behind the scenes supporting Akina…. If such a person were to exist, it would make Akina’s comeback more difficult.

If she had proceeded without telling the record company or Mr. X, her credibility would be at stake, and Mr. X’s reputation would have been destroyed.

I understand that they want to do something for the 40th anniversary of their debut, but to make it happen, they need the cooperation of many people. If things continue as they are now, I think the anxiety of ‘I don’t know what I’m going to do’ will prevail.

Regarding Akina, “Akina Nakamori Special Live” broadcast on NHK on July 9 1989 Remastered Version” broadcast on NHK on July 9 was a great success. This, combined with the fact that it was the 40th anniversary of her debut, led to some “longing” for a Kohaku Uta Gassen (Red and White Singing Contest).

The last time Akina appeared in Kohaku was in 2002. If she does, it will surely be a highlight of the show….

The NHK has been asked by Akina not to use any footage shot at their own station for the special live performance. They said to use only commercialized footage. This was probably because there was no money to be made.

NHK has complied with the request, and it is true that the momentum for Kohaku appearance is growing, but there is also talk that the establishment of a new agency has become a problem here. We will have to wait and see how the situation develops.

What is happening around Akina right now? Even though she is reported to be making a comeback, the future of her career is in doubt.
