The birthday events we hold every year are full of wonderful ideas and concepts related to Daimu Takatsuka🩷

How did Daimu Takatsuka fall into the swamp?

BirthdayJAPAN staff: How did you become a fan of Daimu Takatsuka?

Daimu Takatsuka FANDOM：I really like the "PRODUCE series" that was originally released in Korea, and I've been watching it since SEASON 1.

After hearing the news that SEASON 2 was starting, the trainees were released on January 30th.

Source

There was only a publicity photo in the list of trainees, but that's when I thought, ``This girl is great!''

BirthdayJAPAN staff: Is it love at first sight? !

After that, how did you feel when details about Daimu Takatsuka were gradually revealed?

Daimu Takatsuka FANDOM：It was right around the time of the coronavirus, and there was a new system where you could vote by watching videos posted online.

There are videos of Oyume-kun singing, and in his self-introduction he says, ``I worked as a clerk at a pet store.'' A video was also released that shows humanity.

I like girls who are good at singing, so I felt like, ``I definitely want her to debut!''

Strong fandom makes an impression

BirthdayJAPAN staff:What made you decide to create a fandom?

Daimu Takatsuka FANDOM:When I was watching other audition programs, there weren't many trainees to choose from, so I couldn't find many.

At that time, it was impressive to see people in the fandom picking up even a small portion of it and doing missionary work on X.

It has a very warm image of fandom, and I thought it would be an opportunity to impress people who see it as a strong fandom.

In order for Oyume-kun to make his debut, I created a fandom and thought that if we all came together to support him, the chances of him making his debut would be higher.

BirthdayJAPAN staff: There's also a fandom account for INI as a whole, right?

Daimu Takatsuka FANDOM: That's right! 11FANDOMS OF INI is run by the administrators of the fandoms of the 11 members who debuted, and we organize plans to celebrate their debuts.

BirthdayJAPAN staff：The fandoms are also closely connected.

Daimu Takatsuka FANDOM：Since the audition, we have been sharing information between fandoms.

If the tag events overlap, the trends will be affected, so even though we were rivals, we cooperated in that respect.

Fandom activities started with open chat

BirthdayJAPAN staff：When you first started, were you the only one?

Daimu Takatsuka FANDOM: That's right! When I started it, I was the only one, so I looked for people to manage it with me, and the number of people gradually increased!

BirthdayJAPAN staff: That's amazing...

What was the first thing you did when you actually decided to launch it?

Daimu Takatsuka FANDOM:At first, we mainly used open chat on LINE, and first of all, we wanted to improve the atmosphere and create an environment where it was easy to support.

For example, we congratulated people who joined us at milestones, saying things like, "Open chat has reached 100 people! It's now 150 people!" (lol)

I also didn't want it to be difficult to speak up, so the first thing I did was create an atmosphere.

BirthdayJAPAN staff：What did you all talk about during the open chat?

Daimu Takatsuka FANDOM:The trainee release was at the end of January, and the broadcast started in April, so

For about two months, we just talked about the self-introduction videos, dance videos, and singing videos that were coming out at the time, saying, ``This is what I like!''

There was someone who was willing to make images for missionary purposes, so we talked about how we could continue to do missionary work in X as well.

Also, there was an open chat with other trainee administrators, and we decided to do a general hashtag event.

Support activities have already begun, such as personally holding a tag event for Daimu-kun!

What you can learn about Oshi through fandom activities

BirthdayJAPAN staff: Has there been anything good about being part of the fandom?

Daimu Takatsuka FANDOM：Through fandom accounts, I have many opportunities to interact with fans of various generations.

Oyume-kun has many charms,

“This is what attracted this person.”

“This person is stuck here.”

I also learned something about Oyume-kun that I couldn't know from his personal account!

I also support the members I like the same as myself, although I haven't met them yet.

I think it's nice to be able to connect online and feel like I'm not alone.

BirthdayJAPAN staff:I saw the video published on X!

Daimu Takatsuka FANDOM:When we decided to debut, we took a survey.

A person in the management team who is good at design made it, and it's a compilation of reasons why I fell in love with someone other than myself, Oyume-kun, and I still keep looking back at it!

BirthdayJAPAN staff:I watched this video and thought it was really cool!

Approaching the charm of Daimu Takatsuka

BirthdayJAPAN staff：Next, please tell us the charm of Daimu Takatsuka!

Daimu Takatsuka FANDOM：I think the two main things are singing and being smart.

He pays close attention to his surroundings and says what he thinks, but he also has a kind of flexibility.

I'm the type of person who is soft and affectionate no matter who I'm with.

I think it's okay for him to serve as a cushion within the group.

Also, I'm a hard worker.

I didn't have any dancing experience, but I think I've become even better at dancing since my debut, such as when I was in the A class during my time in Nippon 2.

My biggest strength is singing, because I can hit high tones, so depending on the song I'm in charge of the accent parts, and I'm also entrusted with the killing parts, so I think singing is my strength!

BirthdayJAPAN staff:Do you have a favorite song?

Daimu Takatsuka FANDOM：I like how powerfully the song ``Password'' is sung.

Also, I usually tend to sing high-pitched parts, but in "CALL 119" I also did a rap-like part, and I like it because I sing in a new way.

Fans unite to overcome challenges

BirthdayJAPAN staff：Having supported Daimu Takatsuka up until now, are there any episodes that left an impression on you?

Daimu Takatsuka FANDOM: At the time of the audition, something happened that threatened Oyume-kun's debut.

At that time, Oyume-kun's fans almost gave up, thinking that it would be difficult for him to debut.

We had a serious discussion about the need to accept what had happened and continue to support them without giving up.

There were times when the opinions of the fans were divided, but looking back after our debut, I think that our conflict has deepened our unity.

Also, before the finals, I was ranked 17th.

At that time, I analyzed the fandom and asked, ``How many people should each person preach to in order to debut?''

When I asked people to aim for the top, many people agreed with me.

I think it was a big help that people became more and more aware of voting! 

Support advertisements are an opportunity to increase the number of fans

BirthdayJAPAN staff:Support advertisements andBirthdayWhat made you decide to do advertising/events?

Daimu Takatsuka FANDOM:I think that station advertisements are the biggest way to let people who use stations and have not watched the audition program know that ``this kind of thing exists!''.

At first it was Ikebukuro, but after securing a place with a lot of traffic and putting it out there, I was asked to do a survey after my debut.“I found out about Oyume-kun through an advertisement at the station, saw his audition, and was hooked!”That's what I thought, and I'm glad I released it!

BirthdayJAPAN staff: That's amazing!

Daimu Takatsuka FANDOM：I thought (the advertisement) was a real opportunity to learn more!

BirthdayJAPAN staff：How many other advertisements have you run?

Daimu Takatsuka FANDOM: After debuting, we also planned to release all of them to 47 prefectures! (lol)

At that time, we held a code event where we searched for codes hidden in advertisements.

I also tried doing sticky note ads and peel-off ads where you can attach goods to the ads and take them home with you, and I'm glad I did it because it sent a message! 

What was the most exciting thing in the past? Sticky note ads and flower shop events? !

BirthdayJAPAN staff: That's interesting!

A Korean that will make you wonder, “Where did that idea come from?!”BirthdayThis is an innovative idea that is completely different from advertising.

Which of the advertisements you have done so far has received a great response?

Daimu Takatsuka FANDOM:When we did a sticky note ad, we asked for texts from people who couldn't come in person.

When I went to write and paste messages from people who couldn't go but wanted to participate in the sticky note advertisement, I received feedback that they wanted me to do it again next year!

BirthdayJAPAN staff：It's wonderful to see an ad filled with everyone's thoughts!

Daimu Takatsuka Are there any advertisements or events within FANDOM that make you think, "I'm glad I did this!"?

Daimu Takatsuka FANDOM:The best part was the event we collaborated with a flower shop!

Oyume-kun likes flowers and plants, right?

I had the florist choose the colors and other things to match the birthday concept.

The plan was to have a bouquet set menu made for around 1,000 yen, and if you bought a flower, you would receive a postcard or sticker with Oyume-kun's picture on it.

Many of the florists were very cooperative, and they went out of their way to make flower stands and decorate them.

Then, in time for Oyume-kun's birthday, they brought in lots of light blue flowers, the member's color, and prepared gypsophila dyed light blue.

They were very cooperative and had a great time.

We plan birthday events based on the concept every year!

BirthdayJAPAN staff：Do you decide on a concept for your birthday every year?

Daimu Takatsuka FANDOM: That's right! For example, last year we had an aqua theme with an aquarium and sea creatures!

First, we decide on an image like this, and then create reward items to match the concept.

BirthdayJAPAN staff: Where do such ideas come from?

Daimu Takatsuka FANDOM: I often think of things that Oyume-kun himself likes or associate with the work he has done!

Last year, I made taiyaki for the first time based on the concept of fish.

Since Oyume-kun loves fish, he could receive special benefits by ordering the applicable menu items at various stores across the country!

We also distributed special benefits designed to look like aquarium admission tickets so that people who had difficulty coming to the event could participate.

BirthdayJAPAN staff: What a wonderful event related to Oshi!

Dream is Daimu Takatsuka's birthday event nationwide!

BirthdayJAPAN staff：Is there anything else you would like to do in the future?

Daimu Takatsuka FANDOM: We previously collaborated with a cafe and had them create a limited edition menu for Oyume-kun.

I decided on the name of the menu, and the food was light blue to match Oyume's color.

In the future, I hope to collaborate with a large sweets company!

There was an event where we collaborated with other idols' stores around the country, and videos of their birthday celebrations were played several times an hour.

I live in a rural area, but I thought it would be great to expand nationwide, so I wanted to hold an Oyume-kun event in a place I could easily go to.

I think it would be great if we could expand the range a little more and have more people participate!

BirthdayJAPAN staff: Let's make our dream of celebrating nationwide come true!

Thank you very much for your cooperation in this interview!
