Okamoto: Dai-chan, do you remember the first time you met me?
Arioka: Oh, if I remember correctly, it was the time when Keito was with Kenichi-san (*Keito’s dad who was a former member of the band (a very old Johnny’s group (Probably retired)) Otoko-gumi) to watch a Jr. concert right?
Okamoto: Yeah. It was the one at a hotel at the Odaiba (it is an artificial island in Tokyo Bay (Take a look at the picture of the Odaiba at the bottom of the translation)) huh. I think it was “The Adventure of Johnny’s Jr.” (2006)
Arioka: That time, Keito who only expected to just watch the concert, suddenly started singing “Midnight Rain” right?
Okamoto: Yeah, I sang.
Arioka: You didn’t go to any of the rehearsals before the performance right!?
Okamoto: But, I wasn’t a Jr. at that time (lol).
Arioka: And then you started coming to concerts for some days more… You talked while holding the microphone too huh. You came out of the seats and said, “My dad is Kenichi Okamoto”.
Okamoto: Ahhhー, yeah I said that.
Arioka: But, you also messed up on that. You said stuff like “I am Kenichi Okamoto”.
Okamoto: Also, “My dad is a former member of Otoko-gumi’s Keito Okamoto”.
Arioka: Ugh, it’s so messed up! I don’t get it (lol).
Okamoto: I was just simply someone was an existence who no one knew that time.
Arioka: Honestly I thought, “Who the hell is this guy!?”
Okamoto: Of course. But, I watched Dai-chan from backstage and I thought “He looks cool!”, okay? You were really shining and I still remember that impression of you.
Arioka: Wait, seriously?
Okamoto: I’m serious. I was bowing down to you from backstage from the coolness.
Arioka: Hahahaha! But, Keito went back to England at the same time as when summer ended (*the place where he studied overseas at the time). Then I kept telling myself that you’re going to come again in the summer the next year… and that continued for a few years. So, from my point of view it was like, “It’s summer. He’s coming again”.
Okamoto: Because it was like that when we actually became close was when we became JUMP huh.
Arioka: Yeah. Do you remember in the past when I went to Keito’s house to play? That time, Yabu-chan and Hikaru-kun were with us. and Keito was like, “Hey Dai-chan, can you believe it? Yabu-kun and Hikaru-kun comes to play in my room.” (lol)
Okamoto: I remember!
Arioka: Yabu-chan and Hikaru-kun was always active as the top people during their Jr. times, and even a while after we became to be in the same group, they were still like our “senpai”. I was so moved by the fact that those two came to my house. Keito was so innocent and cute at that timeー.
Okamoto: Hahahaha! Am I not cute now?
Arioka: You’re more of a “nice” than “cute” now. I mean, Chinen and Keito built the bed that I use in my house.
Okamoto: Not only the bed, but also a shelf. You called me over thinking that I’ll build it for you right?
Arioka: That’s not true! Coincidentally when Keito came over to my house to play, coincidentally I wasn’t able to build it myself, so I asked you to do it for me.
Okamoto: To come to think of it, I also built the small chair that’s in Dai-chan balcony…
Arioka: You built it while I was still reading the instruction manual. Thank you!
Okamoto: Well it’s fine. Dai-chan always gives me power anyway.
Arioka: Keito always comes to ask me for advice huh.
Okamoto: Yeah. That’s why, I can’t think of a world without Dai-chan. I’ve been saying this from a while ago, but I want to make a song togetherー. Also, a trip overseas!
Arioka: That sounds nice. Where do you want to go?
Okamoto: Maybe New York. I still haven’t gone there yet.
Arioka: What, seriously!? That’s unexpected. I’ve gone there before so I can guide you?(←smug face)
Okamoto: But, I’m the translator right?
Arioka: Of course!
Okamoto: As expected huhー. Okay, then what do you want to do with all of JUMP?
Arioka: If it’s the season right now, then maybe marine sports.
Okamoto: I want to go to the beach! We used to go together often.
Arioka: With my driving. By the way, Keito’s the first person to sit in the front seat of my first car. And then we went on a drive, went to the beach, ate shaved ice… The stuff we do makes it seem like we’re couples (lol).
Here's a picture of the Odaiba mentioned in the translation in case some wants to know. If you click on the picture, it should take you to the Wikipedia page of the Odaiba^^
