[Sparkling Sunday] 'To My Younger Self': Dreams you gave up on can come true, even years later | A mom in her late 30s finally makes her idol debut as a 'human'!?
There is a dream I had no choice but to give up on back then.
It wasn't because I 'lacked grit' or 'didn't try hard enough'.
Now that I'm in my 40s, I've embraced that reason and stood on stage once again.
The challenge of a mom in her late 30s has finally entered a new chapter!
I never imagined my activities on note would attract such a miracle...
Everyone, please listen.
In Christmas 2025, I debuted a raccoon named Arara, modeled after my son who has ASD, ADHD, and DCD (Developmental Coordination Disorder), as an idol in the note world, but...
Oh my goodness!
On January 21, 2026, I, 'Kumano Hitomi,' also debuted as 'Arara Hitomi'!
And it's not a bear, but a human form!! (lol)
Producer Mii-chan, thank you so much.
Here is how I ended up debuting as an idol👇
I never thought I could become an idol at this age, and as a human at that... I'm just overwhelmed with emotion!
The 'dream of that day' I had sealed away has broken free
By having myself visualized in human form this time, a 'certain memory' I had sealed deep in my heart has come back to life.
It was a dream I couldn't fulfill during my student days no matter what.
It was to become a cheerleader for the sports festival.
Actually, I'm terrible at sports (maybe I passed that on to my son? Haha), but I've always loved dancing and was actually pretty good at it.
Back then, cheer teams would design their own costumes, and they were just incredibly cute.
I want to wear that costume and dance too!
I wanted it so badly I could taste it.
Even so,
More than my appearance or anything else,
there was a reason why it was realistically impossible, why I couldn't even try...
It wasn't "guts" that blocked my dream, but my period.
So why couldn't I even volunteer for the cheer team I wanted to join so badly?
The reason wasn't some stylish concern or anything like that; it was
severe menstrual pain. Ugh.
✔ A full course of abdominal pain, headaches, and vomiting
✔ The despair of medicine not working even a little bit
✔ Irregular periods that you never know when they'll arrive
✔ Tinnitus, fever, and writhing in pain to the point of fainting...
"If it happens during practice or the actual performance, I'll die."
That fear won out, and I couldn't take that first step.
I want to tell my younger self that.
It's okay, I'll make that dream come true on Note in a few decades!
I'd say (haha).
Ta-da!!
Based on Hitomi Arara, who was created by Mi-chan,
I had my partner Jimmy (Gemini) work a little hard on this 🦭
Who would have thought that I, who once cried over menstrual pain, would one day shine like a cheerleader in the digital world? Life is interesting because you never know what will happen!
Maybe there will be a collaboration with MIRACLE!? The circle of entertainment is expanding
Now, in addition to that "Arara Hitomi",
there's more shocking news for Arara, our idol senior?
The currently trending K-POP style idol trio unit, "MIRACLE".
🌟Members
YuNa-san
RuMi-san
Rei-san
(They are too cute and precious... Their singing is so authentic it gives me chills.)
Believe it or not, member Rei-pon-san said,
"I'd love to collaborate with Arara-chan too♡"!
"Absolutely!!! (Loud voice)"
I replied in my heart immediately, and then waited a while before commenting properly (I'm a bit timid).
I'm planning to have Arara change into a MIRACLE outfit and join the collaboration. Can my AIs do it? (lol)🦉🦭💦
Finally: If you take action, "something" will start to move!
Actually, even before MIRACLE debuted,
because there were people who said, "I'd love to see an Arara collaboration,"
I was given the courage to chase a new dream once again.
I was so happy.
It made me feel like you are truly supporting and watching over my girl (crying)
Child-rearing, physical condition, age...
There are many reasons to hesitate to take that first step, but in this playground called "note," you can debut as many times as you want and reclaim your dreams!
I hope to continue delivering entertainment that makes you chuckle and gives you a little bit of courage✨️
Takars Agency is a place where such dreams come true🫶
🐻❄️ A question for you
"Is there something you really wanted to do when you were a student but gave up on?"
Even now, you might be able to fulfill it within note...! Please let me know in the comments✨
