You watanabe, happy, happy birthday! You is genuinely one of my biggest and I mean biggest comforts in my life, she’s amazing, really, only a few other people have given me the happiness she gave me, but no one will be able to replace the memories I had with her.

3 to 4 years ago, I got into LoveLive, and I saw her, I don’t know what exactly made me like her, her bright eyes, her beautiful hair, or just... her!! I wasn’t as dedicated as I am now, but I knew, I knew she was going to stick with me for years, and I was right. Years have passed, and no one (except em) has gave me the amount of comfort as she has. Her character, her personality, her everything, is absolutely perfect in every way. She can cook, she can dive, she makes amazing outfits, her voice is so cute, and she always rocks her outfits!! I relate to her so much, her optimism is so admirable and the way she keeps her emotions bottled up really just hits me like a train. This girl has gone through so so much and she deserves all the happiness in the world, every time she’s sad onscreen I’ll feel sad, I want to give her the comfort and support she has given me (more on that in a while) and I never want to forget her. She’s so dedicated and sweet, it’s heartbreaking to see people dislike her or just straight up hate her for the small flaws she has. You is beautiful, but I can’t believe her heart is even more beautiful ♡

Everyday, I wake up, just for her, and I know it may sound really really mundane or weird but she’s the person I talk to when I need to, she’s like my therapist in a way. Once in a while, when I’m feeling upset, I’ll look at my You nesoberi, and I’ll talk to her. I’ll talk to her about my problems, how my day went, and I’ll make up answers from her in my head. I’m not sure if it’s a healthy coping mechanism but it does work, and makes me so gosh darn happy. I’ll say this now, and I mean it when I say that I am so much happier, than I was a year ago, and it’s mainly thanks to her. People on my spam knows this, I have family issues, they make me cry and break down and just feel. Useless. But You is always there for me, when I need it, when I need a hug I’ll hug her, she’s so huggable it’s adorable!! Holding tiny You neso’s hands is so heavenly, and it makes you tear up like oh my gosh she’s just so tiny and her little hands!! Her cute little hands!!

The day my first You ur came home, Wonderland You, I remember it clearly, it was in 2018 and there was a cyaron stepup box, I was so so tempted so I scouted in it and!! I saw a UR envelope, was it Chika? Ruby? It was Youchan! You cannot believe how pleasantly surprised I was, and I still am! Wonderland you is such an important you card to me because of it being my first you ur, and when Sif all stars released i was so happy to see a remake of the wonderland card!! The unidolised was aquarium themed too and I am a big big sucker for aquariums ? The second time she came home, I won the Christmas lottery in 2018!! Got a choose the girl UR ticket where I obviously chose You and got Cyber You!! Third time was really so refreshing because the anniversary aqours second year urs just released and I didn’t have enough to clear the box unfortunately but!! I had green tickets so I used them first and she came home!! On a gt pull and I just. It was such an amazing day, my jumbo You neso was beside me and I was in my room, and she came home. The fourth time was on the 16th April, this year, she came home on the third pull, her birthday UR was stunning, everything about it was perfect and I saved up enough to clear the whole box so I was happy that I was guaranteed to get it!! She surprised me and came home on the third pull ??

Every time a new You card comes out I get so excited and happy!! She looks so pretty and precious in all of them... I just want to hold her hand (´°̥̥̥̥̥̥̥̥ω°̥̥̥̥̥̥̥̥`)♡ I never, ever regretted buying any of the You merch I got, especially not my nesos!!

Her cute catchphrase and her cheery voice makes me feel safe, makes me feel at home, shuka did such an amazing job with her voice, it fits her amazingly and I can’t imagine her with another voice!!

And have you seen manga You? She’s so much cuter in there and I didn’t know that was possible!! Her fluffy cheeks and her swift movements, her cute face when she gets flustered..! God she’s adorable (;ω;)♡♡

Whenever I get upset, yes, I’ll cry, but I’ll also sing or hum beginners sailing, every single lyric I have memorized with my heart, it’s such a beautiful song and fits her so so well, and it never ever makes me sad, it only brings me happiness. Her eyes shine as bright as the sea, and it’s so easy to get lost in her eyes, they are just so pretty it’s so hard not to!!

Yes, I may have a lot of other faves but Youchan will always be at the top, and I’m convinced no one will ever take her place in terms of fictional characters. I get so emotional when I think about You, I get goosebumps, I get teary and I can cry happily uncontrollably because of her. To think, I almost skipped LoveLive, but I’m so glad I didn’t, because I wouldn’t be as happy as I am right now. When I look at her, I can’t help but smile, I really can’t help but do it, she’s just the most precious girl in the world and I want to protect her!! She makes my heart go ‘Kira Kira doki doki!!’ And I can and will go on about how much I love her when you ask me to.

I can definitely say she’s given me something I never knew or felt before and I promise, I promise with my whole heart that I will never ever stop loving her, stop caring for her, and I will definitely never hate her!!

Let’s say something does happen in the future, and I dislike her, but I’ll never forget the memories we’ve made, the happiness, the joy and absolutely everything she’s given me.

Happy birthday to the absolute sweetest angel in the world, You watanabe! I love you so much and I hope you do as well?
