Popolo 2009.04: Arashi's image
Ah, I just realised that this article has been translated... But since I've finished it already, I thought I might as well post it :) And snoew will be using this for scanlations anyway xD So do look out for it =))
So this is from the latest Popolo Apr 09 issue - Arashi members verify whether the image/impression people have of them is true or not! (Much like the Yes! No! corner in Himitsu no Arashi chan XDD)
Scans/pictures credit to er... snoew&change417 xD
Go here to get them if you haven't =)
So basically there is a sentence that describes their image & the members answer 'yes' or 'no' :)
Words in grey are my own comments :p
AIBA
His tension is very high since morning.
Jun: Yes!
He often eats karaage (fried chicken) bento early in the morning. I feel his power from his appetite [laughs].
Nino: No!
He seems sleepy in the morning. Sometimes he says "I'm sleepy" & there are times where he does fall asleep.
Ohno: Yes!
If there is karaage bento, he'll become very energetic [laughs]. But he is relatively more quiet in the morning.
Sho: Yes!
He likes going for location shooting. He alone is all cheery/energetic when we go for location shooting early in the morning.
Aiba: Yes!
I'm active since morning! And I have a big appetite.
Most people don't have appetite to eat right after they get up, but for me, I can totally eat a unagi or yakiniku bento without any problem. And it's not just my appetite, if I have time, I'll watch movies in the morning. I'm more energetic in the morning than in the night. Come to think about it, when I was a student, I always wake up early to study for my exams. Cuz I feel that I'll forget everything if I go to sleep [laughs].
Ahaha~ I feel that way too ^_^;; That I'll forget everything after I sleep...
He travels overseas at least once a year, even if it's in private.
Jun: No!
He does go to a lot of places for work, but I don't think he does that in private.
Nino: Yes!
Somehow, I feel that he does that. He always buys souvenirs back for us [laughs].
Ohno: Yes!
Because he bought some souvenirs for us recently. By the way, it was fishing lures [laughs].
At the rate how people are giving him lures all the time... I bet he has more than 100 lures by now *facepalm*
Sho: No!
He doesn't seem to be the type that likes travelling. I think he prefers to have fun with his friends in places nearby.
Aiba: No!
Though I use my passport a lot.
I rarely go in private. But for work, last year, there was the Asia Tour & I went to various countries for Shimura Dobutsuen location shooting. So there are a lot of stamps in my passport. But surprisingly, this year, I went overseas with a friend during the New Year. Though the weather was really bad & it's really cold, but we were able to relax & we had lots of fun.
He always forgets his things at home & has to go back to get them.
Jun: Yes!
Whenever I'm the last to leave the green room, I always find Aiba's things lying around.
Nino: No!
I don't think he forgets his things that often. Even if he does, I don't he is the type that'll go back home to take them.
Ohno: Yes!
Somehow, I think he's the type that forgets his things often. But I'm not like that [laughs].
Sho: Yes!
In the past, he mistook his TV remote control for his cellphone & he brought it to work. So somehow, yeah, I think he is like that.
Aiba: Yes!
Rather than forgetting things, I forget to lock the door...
I don't really go back home cuz I forget my things, but rather, I go back cuz I forget to lock the door. I'll start thinking "I might have forgotten to lock the door..." Then I'll start getting worried. Though in most cases, the door is locked already. Though there was twice I left my car key in the car, so I really should not be so careless anymore [bitter laugh].
JUN
He is more popular with older women.
Aiba: Yes!
It's not based on any evidence but just cuz of his image [laughs]. Somehow, doesn't he seem to be popular with older women?
Nino: Yes!
In Himitsu no Arashi-chan, he was popular with the female guests that were older than him.
Ohno: Yes!
I think older women will say to him "He is cute". So I think he is popular with them.
Sho: Yes!
I don't know, but now that you mentioned it. If there is an older woman beside him..... it might suit him.
O.o I'm surprised everyone said 'yes'... I thought it's 'no' ^_^;;
Jun: No!
I don't really take note of a girl's age...
Basically, I'm a popular guy, so it doesn't matter whether they're older or younger...... I'm just kidding [laughs]. The truth is, I'm not popular with either side. I've never been approach by girls before. And personally, I don't really care about the girl's age. It's not about being adult-like or being child-like, it's what you are that is important.
He always watches Arashi members' dramas.
Aiba: Yes!
He always tells us "I watched it". And he seems to diligently record various TV programmes.
Nino: Yes!
Though it's impossible to watch all episodes, but he'll at least watch one episode.
Ohno: Yes!
He told me about his thoughts after watching Maou, so I'm sure he watches all of our programmes.
Sho: Yes!
He said he bought a new video recorder & it's not just members, I think he watch other people's dramas too.
Jun: Yes!
I record the programmes as much as possible.
I can't watch all, but I watch whatever I can. And if I remember, I'll record it too. As for my thoughts, I may or may not tell the person himself. I recorded Riida's drama (Uta no Oniisan) today too. Tonight (the day of the interview) is the first episode, so I'm looking forward to watch it after I get home.
Aww~ I love how Jun always watches members' dramas<3 Ohno mentioned in another interview somewhere that Jun did tell him his thoughts on Utaoni =))
He reads a lot.
Aiba: No!
I wonder if he reads? I have never really seen him read before. But he reads manga.
Nino: Yes!
He reads during breaks in between interviews. But I don't know what he is reading [laughs].
Ohno: Yes!
During our waiting time, he is always reading something. I have the image of him reading since a long time ago.
Sho: Yes!
Sometimes he plays video games, but during the break for today's interview, he was reading a book throughout.
Jun: No!
If possible, I want to learn how to speed read!
The 'no' that is closer to a 'yes'. I always buy a lot of books but cuz my speed of reading is slow, I can't read a lot. I'm reading a suspense novel now. But no matter which genre, if there is a book that I'm interested in, I'll make a memo of it in my cellphone & I'll buy it later. I really want to master speed reading & read all my books at home at one go [laughs].
NINO
He likes watching/observing people.
Aiba: No!
Rather than watching other people, I feel that he's the type that will immerse himself in his hobbies or his own world.
Jun: No!
For Nino's case, it's not that he likes watching people, I think it's just cuz they happen to be within his sight.
Ohno: No!
He is obsessed with games & magic, so I don't think he has interests in watching/observing people.
Sho: Yes!
It's not that he watches the people walking on the streets, but he carefully observes the personalities of the people near him.
Nino: Yes!
It's fun when I get to see some interesting people!
Well, if I had to choose between like & dislike.... I'd say 'like'. When I have time, somehow, I'll end up watching the people around me. When I'm in the car, I like look out of the window too & it's fun when I see some interesting people. Like if I see a funny ojisan that makes me laugh, it'll leave a impression on me for a while [laughs].
During his days off, he stays indoors at home all day long.
Aiba: Yes!
He likes games & he has that image, so yes. But there are times when he is active too.
Jun: Yes!
I haven't heard him talk about going out to shop or anything. He probably plays games during his days off right? And he practises magic too.
Ohno: Yes!
He probably plays video games when he is at home. I think he can do that for about 3 days without any problem.
Sho: Yes!
I've heard him talk about going out to eat with friends recently, but most of the time, he is playing his video games.
Nino: In between! (ie.yes & no)
If it's just ~2 days, it's perfectly fine!
Sometimes I do stay at home during my days off but not for one whole week, that's impossible. I can stay at home for 1-2 days without going out at all, that's fine. I'll probably be playing video games, watching DVD on magic..... But most of the time it's game I guess. Cuz when you start playing video games, you'll forget about the time [laughs].
There you have it! Arashi's otaku XDD
Because he performs magic, he does manicure for his hands.
Aiba: No!
Though he did buff his nails when we were in Taiwan's massage parlour, but I don't think he does that himself.....
Jun: No!
I've never seen him do any form of manicure before. I don't think he is that serious.
Ohno: No!
Because in Taiwan, when we all got our nails nice & shiny, he seems to be embarrassed by it.
Sho: Yes!
It's not really his nails, but he washes his hands very often. Cuz he says that if the cards get dirty, his magic tricks won't work.
Nino: No!
It's a bit strange to say I have pretty fingers......
No, I don't. I'm just doing it (magic) cuz it's my hobby. I'm not a real magician or anything. Normally, I don't do anything for my nails or hands at all. I don't really take note of things like that. I think most guys feel the same way as me in this aspect right? If your nails are shiny, I think it's kinda embarrassing.
Ohno got the answer & reason right!! XDDDD
OHNO
He decorates his room with his drawings.
Aiba: No!
I haven't heard about him talk about decorating his room with his own drawings before. I have the image that his room is simple, with few items/furniture.
Jun: No!
Personally, I can't link such a modern/stylish act like decorating your room with drawings to Riida [laughs].
Nino: No!
I don't think his room is that wide/big to hang so many drawings. I'll be jealous if his room is really that big.
Sho: No!
The shops that Satoshi-kun frequents is decorated with many of his art pieces, so I think there isn't any at home.
Huh? Shop???
Ohno: No!
Basically, my room is just a place for me to sleep.
I don't decorate my room with my drawings. Neither do I do so with my figures. My art pieces are kept somewhere else. My room is not exactly bare, but I'm not particular about the interior either. Basically it's just a place for me to sleep [laughs]. When I'm awake in my room, most of the time I'm watching some fishing programmes in my bed [laughs].
Hmm~ Where exactly does he keep his artwork? He mentioned his friends place before but....
He has no sense of direction.
Aiba: No!
I don't think so. Since he doesn't drive, I don't think he gets lost in the streets [laughs].
Jun: Yes!
Even in TV stations, he always doesn't know where to go or what to do.
Nino: No!
He always makes it to the meeting place without much trouble, so I don't think he has no sense of direction [laughs].
Sho: Yes!
Since he doesn't have a driving license, I think he doesn't know the roads well. As for fishing, it seems that his friend brings him there.
Ohno: Yes!
I get lost but I like it [laughs]!
This (image of me) is correct [laughs]. In the past, I did get lost once before & I couldn't find my way out. Sometimes I'll be all confident & say "This is definitely the right way!" but end up walking in the direction completely opposite of where I'm supposed to go [laughs]. But I like this side of me. Cuz it's like things will become interesting.
Rightttt... Someone that likes getting lost... Well, I don't feel it's strange since it comes from Arashi's UFO XD (Note: Aiba called him that in an interview last year :p)
At home, he plays music & dances to it.
Aiba: No!
I can't imagine him dancing at home [laughs]. I think he spends his time at home in a quiet manner.
Jun: No!
I don't have that image of him at all! I think Riida doesn't even move at home [laughs].
Nino: No!
He definitely doesn't dance at home [laughs]. Even if he feels like it, I don't think he'll dance at home.
Sho: No!
Definitely no. He moves as little as possible, only as much as he needs to. So there is no way he'll do that [laughs].
*LOL* I love how all the members responses are like "There's NO way he'll even move at home" XDDD
Ohno: No!
I don't listen to music at home.
I like music so I always listen to it while I'm on the move in the car. But I don't listen to it at home. In the past, I did listen to some western songs, to have some music playing in the background. But I don't dance at home [laughs]. Though if it's a song that I like, I'll move/sway along with the music, but I won't dance to it [laughs].
SHO
People always go to him for advice.
Aiba: Yes!
It's just my hunch, but I think people do go to him for advice. Cuz he seems like the type that'll give you a proper answer if you go to him for advice.
Jun: Yes!
I don't really know in actual fact if people go to him for advice or not, but his friends see him as trustworthy & reliable guy.
Nino: Yes!
He has a lot of friends, so I think people do go to him for advice. Somehow, I just feel that way.
Ohno: Yes!
His social network is very wide & he seems to be the type that is willing to give advice.
Sho: Yes!
I like it when people show me the human side of them.
Well, sometimes. I guess it cuz our age is the age where there are lots of turning points in our life. I don't go to people for advice, but when people come to me for advice, I'm okay with it. Putting aside whether I can give a good answer, but what you're troubled about shows what kind of personality you have, like human nature. I'm happy when my friends show me that side of them.
I like his answer here :) About how it's in a way 'nice' when friends share their troubles with you~
He makes a memo of members' birthdays in his cellphone.
Aiba: No!
I think he remembers our birthdays even if he doesn't make a memo. He hasn't forgotten about it before.
Jun: Yes!
When you enter a contact's profile, it'll automatically ask you to enter the birth date, so maybe he does make a memo......
Nino: No!
I think he definitely remembers members' birthdays. Even I can remember them [laughs].
Ohno: No!
He already memorised our birthdays, so I don't think there is a need for him to make a memo [laughs].
Sho: No!
Nino is next. What should I give him....
I don't do that for members' birthday, since I memorised them already. I do make memos for my friends' birthdays in a notebook/dairy. But I have to rewrite them every year & if I neglect that, I won't know when their birthdays are [laughs]. The next one is Nino's birthday in June. Well, it's still early now, I'll think about what to get him slowly.
He likes to act in romantic scenes.
Aiba: No!
He is a relatively more rational/practical person. So I have the image that he doesn't like to be forced to do a role that he doesn't like.
Jun: No!
He doesn't seem to have the image that he is good at it [laughs]. In fact, he seems to be bad at it. So I think he'll feel embarrassed if he has to do it.
Nino: No!
He'll definitely feel embarrassed & he'll think it's troublesome, so he won't act in romantic scenes!
Ohno: Yes!
He is a considerate person & he pays attention to details, so he may be able to do it casually but..... [laughs].
Sho: No!
I think I'll fail & just freeze [laughs].
I can't even think about that [laughs]. A surprise is fine, but doing something romantic, I think it's embarrassing. If it isn't someone I'm close with, I think I'll just fail. Just thinking about it makes me shudder [laughs]. But I do want to do something to make my partner happy. Something romantic... Like a restaurant with a good night view? [laughs]
So this is from the latest Popolo Apr 09 issue - Arashi members verify whether the image/impression people have of them is true or not! (Much like the Yes! No! corner in Himitsu no Arashi chan XDD)

I'm active since morning! And I have a big appetite.
Most people don't have appetite to eat right after they get up, but for me, I can totally eat a unagi or yakiniku bento without any problem.

He is more popular with older women.

If possible, I want to learn how to speed read!
The 'no' that is closer to a 'yes'. I always buy a lot of books but cuz my speed of reading is slow, I can't read a lot. I'm reading a suspense novel now. But no matter which genre, if there is a book that I'm interested in, I'll make a memo of it in my cellphone & I'll buy it later. I really want to master speed reading & read all my books at home at one go [laughs].

He likes watching/observing people.

The shops that Satoshi-kun frequents is decorated with many of his art pieces, so I think there isn't any at home.
Huh? Shop???
Ohno: No!
Basically, my room is just a place for me to sleep.

I don't really know in actual fact if people go to him for advice or not, but his friends see him as trustworthy & reliable guy.
Nino: Yes!
He has a lot of friends, so I think people do go to him for advice. Somehow, I just feel that way.
Ohno: Yes!
His social network is very wide & he seems to be the type that is willing to give advice.
Sho: Yes!
I like it when people show me the human side of them.
Well, sometimes. I guess it cuz our age is the age where there are lots of turning points in our life. I don't go to people for advice, but when people come to me for advice, I'm okay with it. Putting aside whether I can give a good answer, but what you're troubled about shows what kind of personality you have, like human nature. I'm happy when my friends show me that side of them.
I like his answer here :) About how it's in a way 'nice' when friends share their troubles with you~
He makes a memo of members' birthdays in his cellphone.
Aiba: No!
I think he remembers our birthdays even if he doesn't make a memo. He hasn't forgotten about it before.
Jun: Yes!
When you enter a contact's profile, it'll automatically ask you to enter the birth date, so maybe he does make a memo......
Nino: No!
I think he definitely remembers members' birthdays. Even I can remember them [laughs].
Ohno: No!
He already memorised our birthdays, so I don't think there is a need for him to make a memo [laughs].
Sho: No!
Nino is next. What should I give him....
I don't do that for members' birthday, since I memorised them already. I do make memos for my friends' birthdays in a notebook/dairy. But I have to rewrite them every year & if I neglect that, I won't know when their birthdays are [laughs]. The next one is Nino's birthday in June. Well, it's still early now, I'll think about what to get him slowly.
He likes to act in romantic scenes.
Aiba: No!
He is a relatively more rational/practical person. So I have the image that he doesn't like to be forced to do a role that he doesn't like.
Jun: No!
He doesn't seem to have the image that he is good at it [laughs]. In fact, he seems to be bad at it. So I think he'll feel embarrassed if he has to do it.
Nino: No!
He'll definitely feel embarrassed & he'll think it's troublesome, so he won't act in romantic scenes!
Ohno: Yes!
He is a considerate person & he pays attention to details, so he may be able to do it casually but..... [laughs].
Sho: No!
I think I'll fail & just freeze [laughs].
I can't even think about that [laughs]. A surprise is fine, but doing something romantic, I think it's embarrassing. If it isn't someone I'm close with, I think I'll just fail. Just thinking about it makes me shudder [laughs]. But I do want to do something to make my partner happy. Something romantic... Like a restaurant with a good night view? [laughs]
