[translation] SixTONES DUET 2024.04
...long time no translation! XD i was reading this crosstalk on twt and thought it was kind of interesting, so! here it is! it's been YEARS since i've translated anything properly so i might be a bit rusty, but it should be quite alright.
i've noticed that these days ppl just translate small bits and pieces on twt super quickly, but rarely full interviews anymore. i can't make any promises BUT it would be nice to translate stuff more again, if i see something interesting :D we'll see.
anyway, here's the sixtones crosstalk from april DUET:
First, let’s hear your thoughts about welcoming your 4th debut anniversary!
💛 Nah, nothing’s changing.
🖤 Yep, nothing really is changing.
💗 I do feel like ”oh, it’s already the 4th anniversary, so quick!”, but it’s still only been 4 years.
💙 If we’re talking about milestones it’s the 5th anniversary, and in our case, number 6 is important to us so we’ll probably be more ”whoa!” about our 6th anniversary.
💚 We didn’t do anything for the 4th anniversary.
💗 We’re more prone to celebrate May 1 which is our group’s formation day, right? Last year, too, didn’t we do an Insta live on our formation day?
❤️ We did, we did.
💙 Debut day is the day you first release a CD, right? If we celebrate that, then shouldn’t we also have anniversaries for the first time we appeared in a magazine or TV and celebrate those too? Of course the debut day is important too, but it feels like the formation day holds the most weight.
💗 It’s like, ”the starting day”, when these 6 were gathered together.
❤️ No, it’s like the day when dating started.
🖤 If you say that, isn’t the formation day like a birthday? And then the debut day is a wedding anniversary. Ah, then, both are important.
❤️ That’s right, we should celebrate at once!
💙 Our members haven’t changed at all since the formation, right? That’s why it’s particularly important.
💚 Ah, that is true.
❤️ That’s why our group chat is completely silent on our debut day.
💗 On our group chat with Sony, there was a message like ”Let’s make an impact together!” So, our debut day has a strong image of ”anniversary of being tied together with Sony”.
💛 A union with a surprising form (laughs).
Share some memories from the time of your debut?
💛 On the debut day, we were on ZIP! from early morning.
❤️ That was a super early morning.
💚 That’s why we stayed at a hotel near NTV, didn’t we?
💙 Then, we had a gathering at the hotel lobby at 3.30am.
🖤 I really liked the faces of you all when we gathered at the lobby.
❤️ At that time, we took a video with Shintaro.
🖤 Really?? Do you still have it?
💚 We do.
🖤 That’s crazy! I want to see that.
💗 Wasn’t I in the same room with Kochi in that hotel?
💛 Ah, maybe. That time the room division was free.
💗 I remember I wasn’t able to sleep at all, probably because I was nervous.
🖤 I also probably wasn’t able to sleep.
💙 I was in the same room with Hokuto then, and we both slept immediately.
🖤 Huh, we had twin rooms back then?
💙 We did.
💛 We’ve had single rooms since Corona.
🖤 Right. Suddenly it was like ”we’re already at the age for single rooms”, and after that it’s always been single rooms also during tours. You don’t really get it, right? From this year onwards, it’s totally possible to have twin rooms again?
💚 Huh, let’s do that! Let’s have twin rooms and play The Game of Life with the 6 of us!
💙 That’ll become a 6-person room then!
🖤 You won’t play The Game of Life with just two people (laughs).
💚 Huh. Well then, we should go with 6-person room ♪
💛 Then, we also a promotion with Snowman where we were scattered around the country.
❤️ Ah, the ”Around the country in 15 different places all at once Campaign”, where we were doing live broadcasts simultaneously around the country.
💚 Did I go to Ishikawa?
🖤 I recall that if possible, we went to places that had some connection to each of us, so that’s probably right. Shintaro has grandparents in Ishikawa, right?
💚 Yep.
❤️ I went to Iwate and did ”Migite, hidarite, Iwate ♪”. (*A word pun that only works in Japanese. Translated: Right hand, left hand, Iwate.)
💛 Hahahaha! A fellow that went to a place with no connection immediately appeared (laughs)!
❤️ No, I have a connection! I like Morioka cold noodles!
💙 I went to Ehime. I remember there were so many tangerines in the dressing room that I thought ”I won’t be able to finish all of them! (laughs)”
💚 Ah, I didn’t go to Ishikawa but Toyama! I ate masuzushi!
🖤 I was the representative for Touhoku region, and before the recording they said ”There’s no outfit!”, so I ended up doing it in my own clothes.
💛 It became a topic even in Akita where I was. ”It seems Hokuto didn’t have an outfit”.
💚 Huh, where did Kyomo go?
💗 I was around Saitama on radio. I have a feeling we went around in the nearby area with Iwamoto Hikaru.
💚 Ah, it was a pair system?
🖤 For me, ONE.
❤️ Me too, ONE.
💙 Now that I look back, the three months before and after debut were super busy. We were always working, and even when returning home, there was a massive survey to be filled. I really feel like ”we really did overcome that period”.
💗 But it was also exciting.
🖤 There was no other way to maintain the mental health but to make each other laugh, so I feel like we became even better friends here.
Since debut until today, what is the most fun memory?
💙 For me, shooting Youtube videos remotely was fun. Even though we worked endlessly as six right before and after debut for half a year, suddenly we weren’t able to meet because of Covid. After that, whether it’ll last a month or not… Like that, we shot Youtube videos from each of our homes, and that time I was really happy to be able to see the members’ faces after a while.
💗 That time, I was just nicely hooked with stretching. I stretched for 30 minutes every day while watching the anime “Kingdom”, so I remember showing for everyone on the sofa, like “This is how I do it~” (laughs)
❤️ But because of the angle of the camera, you disappeared from the view and we couldn’t see you.
💛 Ahaha, yes that happened!
💙 But, we were happy about that, right? For real, I didn’t think Kyomo would show us this kind of side.
❤️ The sofa was also pretty.
💛 Who cares about the sofa (laughs).
💗 There was someone who put himself out even more than me, right?
🖤 Ah, I think that’s me. I disappeared from the screen and came back with a weird costume… I did weird out-of-character jokes again and again.
💚 Did you wear tank top with sunglasses?
🖤 No, cap and tank top and sunglasses. I also appeared in a dinosaur kigurumi…
💗 Hahaha!
💚 It really wasn’t Hokuto-like joke at all.
🖤 I was so happy to see everyone’s faces that I did it.
❤️ I did Mr. Zudon.
💛 Ah yeah, you did!
💙 Then, speaking of memories, the incident during a concert. When the equipment stopped.
💚 Ah, it was during “on eST”.
💙 We did a live show where the center pathway was lifted and lowered, but the pathways crashed into each other in the air. The equipment stopped working while everyone was still on it.
🖤 And Juri was the only left behind in the air.
💙 Huh, it was only me??
💚 It was.
💙 I do remember that Jesse was right away giving instructions like a soccer coach… I see, so everyone else was lower timing-wise and I was highest.
💚 For real, it was quite high but, Juri, you did jump down.
💙 I was already full of adrenalin, and everyone else was already down, so I thought “I have no choice but to jump”.
💚 It was around the time you were talking about how you want to appear on SASUKE, so it was really good.
💙 Right. It was just when I was aiming for that.
💛 There was no such time, not at all (laughs).
💙 I remember the early days of our Youtube quite well.
❤️ I remember, too! Lil Kansai also made an appearance, right?
💛 That one was just recently! (laughs)
❤️ They even introduced themselves, I was thankful for that~♪
🖤 That reminds me, a long time ago we used to do KY game, and even made it into concert goods…
💗 You don’t hear people saying “I’m using it!”. Maybe they weren’t into it after all? (laughs)
💛 When thinking of fans, it seems many are looking forward to the big competition of 9-square tag (9masu onigokko).
💙 Ah, shall we make 9masu onigokko goods? Saying stuff like “with this packing tape you can perfectly make 9 squares!”
❤️ Official packing tape. Ahaha!
💗 Wouldn’t something like a picnic blanket which you can just spread out and draw the squares with that be good too?
Then, something that was hardest?
❤️ The time when I was to be on a cover for a men's health magazine, the meal restrictions. During the tour, everyone was eating catering with a good appetite, like kabayaki eel, while I had to eat only chicken and salad. It was tough.
💚 We did say that you could eat one thing you desired per day, but you endured without eating it.
💛 For me, there hasn’t been anything too tough.
❤️ As expected of an idol.
🖤 For me, it was probably when I had to do a re-examination after my thorough medical check-up. Well, in the end there was nothing wrong so it was good.
💛 Ah, that’s the same for me too. This year, too, I’ll have to swallow an endoscope. That said, do normal idols speak of this kind of stuff?
💗 Your idol authorization is being canceled (laughs).
💙 It’s something to be thankful for, but after all the hardest part has been our schedule, right? Like said earlier already, the six-month period around our debut.
💚 Were we that busy?
💛 Even now, thankfully we are fully surrounded by schedules.
💙 Then there was that. Right after our debut, the Covid pandemic started and that was really tough. At that time it was like “We’ll release our 2nd single. Let’s do our best!”. We gained momentum with our debut, and it was the time when we shouldn’t dangle, but we inevitably were unable to work. That was painful.
🖤 With concerts too, there were discussions on whether or not the audience could attend. Even when they could attend, making any noise was banned and it just continued.
💗 There were places where we had to cancel shows, too.
🖤 With TV too, there were many programs which couldn’t be recorded, so they just used compilation clips instead, right. If you’re trying to pull some old footage to fill in, we didn’t have any since we had just debuted. That was also pretty tough.
❤️ But since we overcame that unfortunate situation, we are here today, you could say.
💗 SixTONES is strong.
This year is your 5th, what kind of things do you potentially want to try?
💚 This is about our goal(s), isn’t it?
💛 As for us, we’ve always gone on without setting any bigger goals. We’re going with “whatever will be, will be”. Wouldn’t it be good if we can maintain the situation with this kind of good mood?
💙 Frankly, as long as we can make a living it’s fine. We can manage somehow, if we can be as six.
❤️ That's fine! Even if we die, we’ll be together, the six of us!
💚 Ah, I do have one dream. AI is very popular right now, so I want to do something with AI.
🖤 As expected. This guy is already going ahead.
💚 First, I’m thinking of letting Chat GPT compose and write lyrics to my solo song. If that can be done wouldn’t it be super interesting?!
❤️ But then in the credits it would read “song / lyrics: AI” and people might think it’s the artist AI.
💗 That’s right (laughs).
💚 I’ll think about it!
💛 Then, speaking of something we want to do as a group, it’s That Thing. Going to the Dreamland* (laughs). (*Disneyland/Disney Sea)
💚 I really want to make that happen.
💗 But, there’s a part where I want to be able to say “I want to go to the Dreamland with us 6!” even next year and the year after that, too. Like with the 9-square tag tournament and just making appointments with the players you get some contentment already. Similarly, with Dreamland it’s kind of fun to just say “I want to go!”.
🖤 I get that, too~
💚 Just talking about it, there’s same enjoyment as actually riding the attractions, right.
💛 Hahaha! That’s cheap (laughs)!
💚 But, going on and on about “wanting to go to the Dreamland as six”, I think it’s something that wouldn’t be possible if we weren’t close with each other.
❤️ That’s definitely true. Ok, just talking about it is a good thing, right?
💗 Also, like, it’s a bit scary when dreams come true so it’s ok if it doesn’t.
💙 ”What if I can’t find myself a new dream?” like feeling? Isn’t it fine to not go that far?
🖤 We’re deep in the Dreamland talk, but don’t you also want to go to Osaka’s theme park?
💙❤️💚💗💛 We do, we do!
One more thing. If there’s a dream that you haven’t revealed anywhere and would be a big surprise to the readers, please reveal it now!
💗 Whoever said this has a winning feeling.
💚 Ok, there’s this! To publish a SixTONES cookbook!
💙 Bu-! (bursts into laughter)
🖤 That’s not about Snoop Dogg, is it (laughs)?
💚 I wonder if everyone knows? There’s this hiphop star called Snoop Dogg and he published his own cookbook.
💙 Right, right.
💚 Similarly, I was wondering if we could publish our own cookbook. I mean, we all can cook, right?
💙 Well, if I don’t have to make a big variety of dishes it’s fine, I think. Also, it’d be fine to just fry something, right?
❤️ It’s fine, it’s fine.
💚 Hokuto you’re also cooking for yourself a lot, right?
🖤 I guess.
💗 I’ve also awakened to cooking.
❤️ Do you know? TKG made by Kochi is super good?!
💚 And with truffle in it!
🖤 You also sprinkle truffle salt on top?
💛 No, I shave it, come one (laughs).
💙 Ok but what’s TKG?
❤️ Right. Shaved truffle on rice (Toryufu Kezuri Gohan), so TKG. Hahaha!
💚 You probably don’t believe it, but it’s true that I’d want to release a cookbook. I mean, Snoop Dogg is an amazing person who’s even performed at the halftime show of american football competition Super Bowl which is said to be the biggest sport event in America. Don’t we want to become something similar?
💙 In short, we want to perform at the halftime show of the Super Bowl so we’re releasing a cookbook?
💗 Following Snoop Dogg’s example?
❤️ Right, starting from there.
💗 I kinda feel like we’re slightly off, but oh well (laughs).
💛 If we’re talking about american football, we have this popular competition “Rice Bowl” in Japan too, where they also have a halftime show?
💚 No, we’re aiming for the original one!
❤️ Please look forward to it (laughs).
