HnA Navi 2009.06.27
[Before the recording of “Himitsu no Arashi-chan”]
Narrator: Arashi’s Sakurai Sho seemed troubled.
Sho: This is bad. If I fail in this new corner, I'll get thrown into the water as a punishment.
[Insert description of “Mote Arashi! Dame Arashi!” (Literally it means “Popular Arashi! No-good Arashi!”)]
We’ll find out who is the most hopeless/no-good in Arashi & that member will get thrown into the icy waters.
Sho: Wah. This is… [puts his hand into the icy water] Wah! This is bad! No one can take this!
Narrator: But why does Sakurai feel so pressurised? It all began with this segment (Referring to “Mannequin Five”).
[Insert description of “Mannequin Five”]
At a certain clothing store in Tokyo’s Akasaka. There are 5 unique mannequins who wear clothes according to their own style.
[Question: What do you think of Sho-kun failing in all the segments?]
Ohno: Though we were all kinda scared... But Sho-kun was the most uncool. If I think about it now. When I think about it now, he does look like he’ll lose.
Aiba: I got first place (In the first “Mannequin Five”). How should I put it? Well, it may just be a coincidence. Since everyone has their own preference. But Sho-kun was really bad. It’s like that for “Mannequin (Five)”. And for “Host Royale”? He was bad in that segment too.
Narrator: Not only was Sakurai the leftover mannequin in “Mannequin Five”, his performance in “Host Royale” was bad too...
Jun: To say the truth... I pity him. I really do. Why does he have to show the unglamorous side of himself? I really feel sorry for him. And when we thought these segments would end... They will never end right?
Narrator: Yes, his failure continued in the second Mannequin five too...
Nino: What is amazing about him is that... And this applies to all the segments, what is amazing is that he has the most screen time. Personally, for me, I think that people who have the most screen time should be people who performed well. But when he is on TV, it's always about his weakness or about him failing. Is that really okay? It would have been better if he kept that part of him a himitsu (Himitsu=secret. You know, since the show is call "Himitsu no Arashi-chan" :p). And now we have "Mote Arashi! Dame Arashi!". I think he'll become the dame (hopeless/no-good) Arashi...
Sho: I cannot leave this to chance! Because it will affect my other jobs, news, acting & etc. So I cannot lose for this segment.

If you were to come up with a catchphrase for yourself, what would it be?
Ohno: "FREESTYLE". It’s the title of my exhibition & art book too. “Anything will do!” It’s great [laughs]
Sakurai: ”To make a headlong rush”. Eh? Isn’t 2008 the year of the boar!? I thought it was & hence I thought this phrase would be suitable. Well, no matter! It means I’ll keep moving forward [laughs].
The kanji for "to make a headlong rush" consists of the kanji for boar/pig. So he thought it would a suitable catchphrase for the year of the boar. But 2008 was actually the year of the rat :p
Aiba: It’s good being able to feel/experience lots of things, so “the internal organs”.
Yep, internal organs. He used a 4-character idiom which literally means "all the internal organs of a person". But it could also refer to a human body in general.
Ninomiya: “Active & Happy”. AneCan’s catchphrase will do. I rearranged AneCan’s catchphrase “Happy & Active” [laughs].
Matsumoto: In no matter what I do, I want to “enjoy freedom & stay worry-free”.
What do you think an ideal male should be like?
Ohno: Fisherman! Someone who is able to do something for a long time.
Sakurai: Someone who achieves results in his career, but also does not forget about play. Someone with a stylish way of life. There are some seniors/elders around me who are like that & I hope I can grow old like that too.
Aiba: Someone who feels young. Though he may be a very knowledgeable & sophisticated adult, but he is also able to accommodate & communicate with people younger than him. I think that’s very cool.
Ninomiya: There isn’t really an ideal, but if there is one, I guess I would want to become like that~
Matsumoto: Someone who can forgive. Because you need to have experienced a lot of things & widen your perspectives to be able to do that.
If you were a girl, which Arashi member would you want to date?
Ohno: I’m not a girl, so I don’t know… But if I had to choose, I guess it’s Aiba-chan. Why? Because our eyes just met [laughs].
Sakurai: It’s me right! Work hard, play hard & eat well. These are my selling points [laughs].
Aiba: I want to try dating all 4 of them for one week each [laughs]. I want to go fishing with Riida, get Sho-chan to teach me about politics, play video games with Nino & go shopping with MatsuJun.
*rofl* I LOVE his dating plan XDD
Ninomiya: If I had to choose, I guess it’s myself? But dating with me might have lots of disadvantages [laughs].
Matsumoto: I want to see sides of myself that I don’t know about, so I would choose myself [laughs].
If there is reincarnation, which member do you want to be in your next life?
Ohno: Myself! Being yourself is good!!
Sakurai: Ohno-san. Because his drawings are of completely a different genre from mine. I want to be able to draw like him~ [laughs].
Aiba: Sho-chan. Because I want to go to university & experience campus life!
Ninomiya: I don’t want to become anyone~ [laughs]. Because… We know too much about each other.
Matsumoto: No one… Because it’s more fun to be with the 4 of them [laughs]. So I want to be myself.
Awwww~ I love Jun's answer<3 It's so sweet~
What’s the secret to Arashi’s close friendship?
Ohno: I don’t know [laughs].
Sakurai: I haven’t really thought about that, but I guess it’s because we have been together since we were kids.
Aiba: We’re close? People see us that way? Doing the same things at the same time, eating together & all. I guess it’s because we’re always together.
Ninomiya: How to become close with people, isn’t it better if you don’t think about it? (As in, it should be something that happens naturally)
Matsumoto: We didn’t do anything special. It just became like this naturally.
When do you feel “I’m so fortunate to be in Arashi?”
Ohno: During concerts.
Sakurai: At the end of a concert, when the five of us hold hands together & wave to the fans. This moment is the best!
Aiba: During concerts, when our eyes meet & we smile each other.
Ninomiya: I wonder when is it? All the time I guess.
Matsumoto: After a concert, when we return to the green room. Somehow, I like that moment.
