The last time Riery updated her blog… was almost 2 years ago. (No I don’t count those Instagram posts as blogs lol)
So it made sense for me to shake off the cobwebs here to translate her latest blog post, where she talked about the formation of her members club.
Frankly, I was a little worried when I saw the announcement. I was thinking if she will still have time to indulge in her passionate talk about shota games, anime, and also, the fate of her unit, Earphones. But thankfully, all of those worries were quelled after reading the blog and her twitter exchanges. Well, read and find out for yourselves!

It was announced recently that
RIE TAKAHASHI OFFICIAL MEMBERS CLUB,
TAKAHA(SHI)RITSU HIGH SCHOOL has been established!
As the school is currently accepting admissions🏫✨,
I decided to write about this project which serves as a fan club as well as a members club on this blog.
Establishing a members club has actually been a longtime dream of mine!
Did you expect that……?🤔
Nevertheless, I’m glad that it took you by surprise.
That just shows how much you have been watching my activities that I have always cherished.
Was Takahashi-san the type of actor who liked attention?
There were some concerned voices, which made me realized that the approach that I have been consciously striving for had reached them. That gave me a bit of confidence.
Which is why I wanted to share what’s on my mind.
Personally, I feel that this is more of a “I love Takahashi Rie’s Works Members Club” and not so much of a “I love Takahashi Rie Fan Club”.
It’s not a big difference, but an important one!
Whether the admiration is for the individual, or for their work and activities!
For me, that is a pretty huge difference! (lol)
I chose to use “members” club because I wanted to express my feelings about it discreetly.
This is the first time I’m talking about it, but I don’t really call all of you “fans”, I have never thought of it this way.
(Well I might have done it a few times though!😅)
I think of everyone as people who support Takahashi Rie’s activities. That’s a distance which feels right for me.
Ah, but I’m also thankful if you see yourself as a fan of Takahashi-san!😎
It’s not that I want to restrict the term that is used, but thinking about it, I find that my approach is towards creative work around expressions, which I hope that we can enjoy together.
I want to respond to everyone’s support with these activities.
Also, I have never wavered from my original way of speaking in various magazines and on radio shows. What I love and cherish the most is still the “work” that I’m involved in.
I want to take good care of the environment and team members which complement the acting, so that they become quality works.
I want to enliven the roles that I have been given to the best of my abilities, so that they become quality works.
I want to learn how to make use of expressions well, so that I can bring you quality works.
I want to share about all the charms of the work on radio shows and magazine interviews, so that more people get to know these quality works.
I want to talk about these works on my shows, I want to have a place where I can share these quality works.
Even though I have now added “solo artist” and “fan club” to my resume, you don’t have to worry about anything changing. These “works” that I spoke about includes both musical and creative activities in general.
I’m a dummy when it comes to acting and works, and I’m not going to change that easily.☺️
Woops, got a little fired up talking about it!
I thought that we could have more fun if I could get together with the people who value what I hold dear to!
Probably that. Yeah. It’s that simple!
Whether it’s on Twitter or Instagram, or even this blog, let’s gather!
We’ll have events some day! We’ll have fun and well-crafted plans! I’d like to show that to you!
Takahashi Rie lives each day to the fullest, in order to become a splendid voice actor, actor, and expressive individual. I want to be able to enjoy 120% of that process. I want to be able to grow while sharing this time with someone.
It was with these thoughts, that I decided to establish the club.
Oh, even if you aren’t enrolled in Rie High, you are still welcome to enjoy my works♡🥰
Go on and enjoy it in your own way, and I hope that we can meet up someday in the future♪

That said, I’d be happy if you enrolled, so I’m leaving the link above ☝️🏫😘 lol
With the school badge, you are going to get more than 30 minutes of me talking about the school, dramatic reading and even school rules! It’s going to be a treat so keep a look out for that♪
