■ Chinatsu Wakatsuki's inauguration comment
"Shibuya not only gave me the opportunity to make my debut in the entertainment world, but I've been living there for over 18 years since I was 17 years old, so I'm really fond of it. I have received many benefits, so I would like to give back to Shibuya.
While working as an entertainer, I think that I can do something because I have a perspective as a Shibuya ward citizen, and for children who will lead the future, including my own children, Shibuya is easy to live in and has further potential. I want to help become a city. "
