Translation: Potato 2012.11 ~ Lewis Jesse and Kouchi Yugo
Another translation! This is from the November issue of Potato, which was Halloween themed. The Bakaleya guys were dressed up as "masked knights" XD; And the theme of their article was "secrets." Each of them answered 4 questions about themselves and the other Bakaleya juniors. I've translated Yugo and Jesse's sections here~ They're actually really interesting and some of them are surprisingly serious, so I'm glad I decided to translate this article.
Q1. Please share ◯◯'s secret!
Q2. Whose secret do you want to know? What secret?
Q3. Share an episode when your secret was revealed.
Q4. Recently, what's something that happened that you wish was a secret?
Jesse
A1. [Kouchi's secret] That Kouchi that fans see is probably a sort of strict image, but the reality is that he's totally a kid. Because he's always goofing off and playing around, and because he's always talking to me about nonsense, he seems like a a moving doll (laugh). But because at Summary, only for Kouchi, he only appeared for one day, during the show, he totally blew up. On the stage, he worse a face almost like he was angry at himself, and it seemed like he was frustrated. At times when faces like that appear, I think it's really genuine.
A2. I want to know what debuted senpai used to think about each day and what sort of activities they used to do when they were juniors. I'm curious as to what what sort of efforts they made to rise to the top when they were at the same place as us. More than one specific person… I want to ask anyone who would tell me. If I were to learn that secret? Of course, with everything I have, I would do my best to make use of that knowledge.
A3. When I was in elementary school, the name of the girl I liked got leaked to my classmates. From there, it quickly spread, and not me, but my friends started teasing the girl. Saying stuff like "You love Jesse~!" After that, the girl cried, and the next day, she didn't come to school. And it was the day of the dodgeball competition, so I have wanted to show my cool side, too. Incidentally, those feelings naturally faded away, and I never confessed to her, either.
A4. I messed up the lyrics at Summary. To the people who noticed, I'm really sorry!! (laugh) As for a private secret, every morning, after I've finished getting ready for school, I lay on my bed and sleep for five minutes. There's not really a reason for it, but it's naturally become a habit ever since I entered high school. Then, it's a super small thing, but I always use the stairs rather than the escalator!
Yugo
A1. [Kyomoto's secret] Kyomoto is short tempered, put simply. (laugh) For example, a little while ago, everyone was really hungry and our stomachs were making a ton of noise. So, I said jokingly, "Kyomoto, you must be hungry~" in passing, but he got super super angry! It seemed like everyone was noisy and irritated. I really don't understand the timing of when his bad temper will be set off. When his mood is fixed is up to that guy's fancy, too. Therefore, at times like that, everyone just lets him be. Then when he realizes, he'll probably fix it.
A2. I want to know about the college life of my senpai! This year, there are a lot of senpai who entered college, just like me. I'm curious as to how and in what ways they're enjoying it. If I meet up with Yuma, I can probably try asking him. I'm totally enjoying college life! Because I'm able to take classes that I like. This time, I want to join a club for remaking clothes. I've always liked remaking clothes, and I do things like make damage jeans and decorating clothes with Swarovski crystals. I get lost in my own world when I'm doing it, so I really like it.
A3. When I joined the agency, I thought I'd like to become a person who doesn't talk at all. It was because I didn't really understand interpersonal relationships. But, I become close with too many people and it was really fun, so the real me came out! Right now, I'm trying to hide my roots. Normally, I'm noisy and have a feeling of being mischievous. I was exposed from the outset by Hokuto though…
A4. After the two consecutive Summary shows, my feet hurt! While dancing, I had to keep moving, but then suddenly my feet hurt and I couldn't move anymore. It suddenly went "piki--!" and cramped up. When it cramped, I broke into a cold sweat (laugh) Moreover, it happened at the same time in the same song again. It's probably a dance that stretches my leg muscles, or something. I don't think I let it show to the fans, though! (laugh)
