SixTONES Popolo 04 2016 Translation - Rules of Living Together
Hi o/
The members talk about the rules they would have if they had a roommate and what kind of life they would want and things like that. The spiel at the start of the article says to fantasise about the love you'd share if you lived together... so why not lol
Jesse’s Rules of Living Together:
I think Japanese food would be good for breakfast. I also want you to hug me, and do the washing. Since in return I’ll clean your ears. I’ve done it for my sister a lot so I’m good at it. But recently, my mum did it for me and it felt good, so I think I want you to do it for me occasionally too. Massages are good too. Also, I don’t like silence, so I always want to play music. I also want to do things like watch movies and play video games, and do fun things together. Also… I have a desire to be woken up in the mornings, thank you <3
Hokuto’s Rules of Living Together:
I’m aiming to be a flambe boy
Out of all these rules, I think the most important one is the flambe (lol). I want to yell “Let’s do it!” and put the fire in the frypan, I want to laugh together with every single thing we do. For cleaning the bathroom I want to have the bath clean up until the edge, and I want us to be hospitable to each other, so we will celebrate things like birthdays properly! We would also say things like “good morning” to each other every day, I want us to have a relationship where we still can say things that people usually stop saying once they get used to a relationship. But we will only sleep together occasionally (lol).
Taiga’s Rules of Living Together:
I want them to dry my hair
I just really want to eat yummy food. My mother is good at cooking, and since sleeping with my dog at night makes me feel better, I would want them to become my hug pillow. I like my lifestyle at the moment and don’t want to change it, so I want my partner to enter it as is. But I don’t want to make them do things they don’t like, so I guess it has to be someone who likes the same things as me. That or someone who is an adult and can accept all of me as I am. I want them to dry my hair for me though… If I keep acting like this I won’t ever be able to get married (lol).
Shintaro’s Rules of Living Together:
Dim lights calm me down <3
If you understand the small issues I have with some things, then it won’t matter about anything else. I won’t ask you to worry about it either. (T/N: Not 100% sure about these 2 sentences) I just don’t want us to share things that go in your mouth! I guess I’m obsessed with cleanliness~. Also, having dim lights in rooms calms me down, to the point where I would turn the lights off in dressing rooms. I want to have a schedule for things like taking the rubbish out. Even in SixTONES’ dressing room, we had a rotation schedule for doing things like taking out the rubbish and going in the shower, and I stuck to it properly!
Juri’s Rules of Living Together:
I want time to myself. I also want the cleaning to be done properly. Ah! The ventilator fan in the bathroom might be noisy. ‘Cause you know, you try your best to get up in the morning even though it’s hot, and you go in the shower, then having water droplets drip on you is really gross right? Also, noise. The noise of my housemate watching TV or talking on the phone would irritate me, so please don’t make it too loud! Please eat rice crackers quietly too (lol). I want to be woken up in the mornings~. In dressing rooms I always sleep until I absolutely have to get up, and I get woken up by Hokuto’s voice.
Kouchi’s Rules of Living Together:
Don’t take my pudding!
I think that doing your own things yourself is the foundation. Playing music is good, but I don’t like blaring music. That, and if you eat my precious pudding I left in the fridge I won’t forgive you! ‘Cause you know, I might have been looking forward to eating it all day, right? Also, I’m not good with air conditioners, so having it on a good temperature is really important. Having a clean entryway is good too. In the Kouchi family, not a single shoe is left on the floor, they’re all put on the shoe rack.
Thanks for reading! I'm still learning Japanese, so if you see any mistakes please let me know! :)
Also thank you to guts_ite for helping me with my grammar :)
