Arashi Translations Index

Summer concerts have been good so far, and I've been having a good time.
No accidents in particular.
This time, after concerts in the suburbs, I went out for dinner with my members more than I did in the past. Like yakiniku, jingisukan (meat.. meat)
At concerts, I feel like I am moved by the audience.
You know, the audience are really nice.
It's like everybody is together and the concert hall becomes one. And I really like the feeling of that atmosphere.
Songs that need to be listened quietly, the audience is calm, and songs for which the beat/rhythms are fast, the audience dances to it. We really get good response back from everybody/audience.
This time, a lot of guys came.
I think at first they came along with some girl? But then decided to come again because it was fun (laughs)
There were guys who were dancing too. Very naturally too.

Actually, this time, 10 of my friends from elementary school and middle school came to the concert for their first time. All on different dates.
Before they saw the concert, they thought it was just a concert where idols sing and the audience gets excited. But when I went to eat dinner with them after the concert, they were really surprised at how the concert was very well planned out and had various kinds of performances. They didn't think so much effort and time was put into the stage.
I think they thought it was some kind of concert where the idol just becomes all showy.
They told me they wanted to come again. That made me very happy.
I was able to hear from a mid-20s guy that the concert was really good and it just felt good to know we are starting to be able to connect to regular people/guys.
There are so many people around me who are telling me they want to come to my concerts now. I'm happy if they are able to have an enjoyable time at the concerts.

The only thing is I don't really think out or plan anything out so that the audience will be moved or anything. I'm thinking that the best thing is if people can become moved while seeing me putting out all the effort I can in what I'm doing.
I was moved when I went to see my friend's butai. Not only the story, but when somebody you know is trying their very best in front of your eyes, you will be moved. So when you're able to accomplish something after trying very hard, you will be moved too.

Being moved in my private life? I guess in movies. No genre in particular, but when the main character becomes emotional. Yes.. recently I do plan to become moved (laughs). I have "Shiawase no Chikara/ The pursuit of happiness" DVD at home, and I think I'll be moved when I watch it. (Nino is beside Ohno right now and "It's Will Smith's right? You still haven't watched it? Didn't know you can have 'plans' to become moved)
As for movies, I just switch on my TV and watch random ones, but they are mostly from the middle, and I don't know what the titles of those movies are. I become moved even with horror and commedy movies.

Bits and pieces from duet.　面白いと思った所だけピックアップしてみたで〜♪

Nino
Playing games is my source of energy. I went back to Tokyo on a night bus after the Niigata concert. I was playing games the whole time and didn't sleep at all. (laughs) I got home and slept for 2 hours, then woke up because I was so hungry. This was the first time I woke up because I was hungry (laughs).

I guess it was too late for them to take the shinkansen back that day ^^ Night buses are so uncomfortable! although I'm sure the one prepared for them should be much more comfortable than the regular buses.

Ohno
My family is asking me to make an electric stand. So I'm in the process of making it right now. The materials I'm using are wood and rope.
--
This reminded me of mago mago episode when Ohchan made the desk-like chair for Obachan T_T Wow.. he even gets requests from his family XD

Sho
Since May, I've been trying to not consume carbohydrates and cafeine. I managed to stick with it for 4 months. It was tough not being able to drink coffee, tea and green tea. I haven't decided whether I should return to my original diet since Yamada Tarou shooting is done.

It was 2 years since we last went to Niigata Messe, and when I saw the sink, it reminded me of how Aiba-chan used it as a bath tub the last time we were here. I laughed real hard. I'm suprised he was able to fit into such a small space/sink.

--
Sho-chan! T_T no carbs and no cafeine!? Why no cafeine.. green tea sounds ok to me..
I sort of remember coming across the *Aiba-chan washing himself in the sink* incident somewhere XD Can't remember the reason though..

Aiba-chan
There isn't really a pattern in my lifestyle. Yesterday, I got home from work at 2am, and today I had radio from 11am. I had two interviews and my radio taping ended at 21:30. What should I do after that. Shall I go out for dinner, or shall I go home and rest~♪

My dream .... must be Arashi. Even though I am already Arashi (laughs) I'd like to make the existence of Arashi larger.

Jun
My source of energy is food! Recently, when I have time to eat breakfast at home, I eat cereal which has genmai/brown rice in it. I also eat momo, grapes, pears and yoghurt.

--
I'm quite sure I know which cereal he's refering to, because there really isn't that much types of cereal sold in Japan. I actually buy the same one sometimes too. Jun likes to be healthy ^^
