Sorry I haven't posting translations as often as before...:( I'm in my lazy mode and I lose to the laziness>< I promise to get out of it soon hahha so I could share more of what eito is thinking:D

Here is the translation for Popolo june issue:) Eito is talking about the experience of going to Tokyo

Osaka→Tokyo

Yasu: I still remember the atmosphere of the first Music Station!

The first time I went to Tokyo was when I was in middle school. This cheap and good Yakiniku*bbq* place I went to with the senpais and the other juniors is a memorable place. I was so happy when I got to Tokyo and was able to dance behind the senpais at "Music Station"! The artist who I passed by were so bright that I thought "I want to debut someday!". But, I think I didn't have the fighting spirit. It's painful to work too hard. Every time I did what I had to do, and have fun with whatever I like. I think even if I'm at Osaka or Tokyo the best thing is to be myself.

A delicate hearted person like you, might get depressed easily from something small. Not getting pushed around by people and going your way is the best.

From the first filming of the new show "Bouken Map" the boat sunk in tremendous snowfall! From the first filming it was really hard but, with the staff we united to "work hard"!

Hina: The most memorable place have to be the town I went with Subaru!

Tokyo has a lot of people and a lot of trains running. For Osaka the places people gather is like set but, I thought Tokyo everywhere I go there's a lot of people. But now, there both like my home town so, I don't really notice it anymore. But, the cost of living in Tokyo is more expensive! It's like 1.5 more expensive than Osaka(laugh). If I were to say the most memorable place in Tokyo is "Sendagaya" where I went with Subaru(laugh). There wasn't that many people than I thought there will be at Center gai*Shibuya*, no wonder it was "Sendagaya"(laugh)! I wonder if the taxi driver that drove us to Sendagaya is doing good(laugh)?

You have a honest and sharp sense. Your sense is very sharp compare to average people so you have a naive part to you too, but its important to work little by little.

I went to Ho Chi Minh city in Vietnam for this Osaka TV! I had like cooked water spinach and stuff, the food was so good~. At the market place, I bought designed plates. 3 set wood crafted plates were 600yen. It was so cheap!

Yoko: When I just came to Tokyo I was playing with Aiba a lot!

The first time I went to Tokyo was when I was 15. I was taking pictures of the Fuji mountain from the inside of the shinkansen. Back in the day I didn't have a camera on my phone so I brought a camera from home. I was probably really excited. Really, my tensions were like I was in a school club. When I just came to Tokyo, I was playing with Aiba a lot. We went shopping together, ate yakiniku together, I even went to his hometown. I only have fun memories. Of course I think about wanting to go back to Osaka but, that's because I want to hang out with my friends. There's a lot of my friends in Osaka.

Lately I've been working! By the way did everyone come to see the solo concert!? I produced everything so it's really hard but I was really obsessive. I'm doing it with confidence so, please enjoy it!

Ryo: I think there's no difference in Tokyo and Osaka!

The first time I went to Tokyo for work I was about 12. It was my first time riding the shinkansen too, and I was really excited. I was just a kid so I wasn't nervous at all, I probably didn't know anything. I remember thinking "Tokyo is such a noisy city~". If I think about it now, it was because I was right in the middle of Tokyo(laugh). Even if its Tokyo or Osaka, people who are nice are nice, and people who are cold are cold. Where ever you are people don't change. That's why I thought people who have narrow minds, who think like "Tokyo is so..." is not cool. People who live in Tokyo and Osaka everyone is Japanese! Tokyo and Osaka are important cities.

You hate giving in. But, sometimes listen to people's opinions. There is a lot of people around you that are your allies.

Baru: We finally made it to our desired "Shibuya" and we were dokidoki*nervous*!

When I was about 15 I went to Tokyo for the first time for work. I was with Murakami so, after work we were like "let's go somewhere". Back then the only place we knew was like "Shibuya". And my name is Shibutani(laugh), so I felt like "I just have to go!" *the kanji for Shibutani is the same as Shibuya*. We got a taxi and said "Center gai", and we got off because the guy said "we're here" but... it didn't look like the center gai. We looked up to see the sign for the train station, and there it said "Sendagaya"(laugh). In the end, we went on the train and went to center gai(laugh). And the Shibuya that we finally made it to, there was a lot of people and I remember being nervous.

Meaning of the flower is "excitement/stimulation" *LOL*. You like arguments/discussions. You are really good at expressing your opinions, so you are a person who can talk it out till everyone agrees.

Ohkura: I love new things, so moving to Tokyo was fun!

I came to Tokyo for the first time when I was in middle school but, I don't remember much. But, I remember this ramen place a senpai took me, it was Tonkotsu*pork* flavor and it was really good. *Of course you only remember about the food partXD* Living on my own in Tokyo was fun trying to learn how to cook, I didn't feel any sadness at all. I like doing new things! Even if its your first time, I think if you challenge yourself it will work out. Having fun and challenging yourself will eventually become your usual living. For people starting a new living, don't get too worked up and just keep challenging yourself!

Maru: The first job in Tokyo is a bitter memory!?

My first memory of working in Tokyo was when I appeared on a radio show with the Tokyo senpais. From Kansai I was the only one and everyone else was from Tokyo so while talking I started not talking in Kansaiben, and it was Tokyoben... I talked on the radio even though I was nervous but, after I got really scolded. I was told "we called you in as a Kansaijin, and if you don't speak in Kansaiben there's no point!" Then on I didn't get called to that show. I heard later, Murakami kun took my place(laugh). Back then I didn't know what their intentions were(laugh).
