Q1. What’s your opinion of this photo shoot?
Q2. Describe your favorite type of girl with a type of cake!
Q3. During a date, you felt your heart beat for your girlfriend. Why is that?
Q4. If you were Santa Claus, what would you want to deliver, and to who?
Q5. What predictions or challenges do you have for this winter?
Taiga Kyomoto
A1. The character that I drew today is called “Kami” (God), and he was coincidentally born when I was doodling on the blackboard during lunch break. With this, I hope he can become popular and spread throughout the fans (laughs).
A2. I would say, kind of like a Mont Blanc cake. Rather than a cool, boyish type of girl, I like fluffy, girlish types.
A3. I think it depends and differs on the person, so I don’t have a particular favorite action or anything. If it was a girl I like, I think I’d find everything about her cute. Just gazing at her side profile would make me feel better (laughs). It’s enough just for her to be natural.
A4. To all the children who are hoping from the bottom of their hearts for Santa Claus to come, I want to give them “their biggest wish”. I want everyone to be happy.
A5. It was a very big thing for me to be able to take part in A.B.C-Z’s first concert. I was happy that I was able to be part of the stage involving people who took care of me like a younger brother, and I myself was able to feel motivated to challenge a lot of other things.
Yuta Kishi
A1. By using a lot of bright colors in my illustration, I think it turned out nicely. I think my personality showed with the round edges, too.
A2. Like a chocolate cake, I like people who have both sweet and bitter sides. By bitter, I mean mature. But having an additional cute side is a nice gap.
A3. For example, when we’re on a date, if I see my partner becoming more excited than usual, I think I’ll feel my heart beat. I think I’ll feel happy because I’ll be able to think, “Oh, she’s enjoying herself too.” By the way, my ideal date course would be… an amusement park.
A4. I’m thinking of presenting my parents with a cake expressing my gratitude, since they always take care of me. I want to eat it together with my family.
A5. I was able to be a part of A.B.C-Z’s concert. Because I ran around the big stage using all of my strength, my muscles were sore the day after (laughs). It was really fun though!
Saneyasu Takahashi
A1. Thinking of Christmas… I drew a sock, but how does it look? If I was to rate my drawing, it would be forty points (laughs). I had Kawazaki Shota-kun help me with the polka dots and other parts.
A2. Short cake. I think that girls who have their hair dyed reddish brown, like a strawberry, is stylish and cute. As for personality, I like sharp types, so I think my type would be a cut piece of cake rather than a whole cake.
A3. While we’re walking together, if our hands accidentally touch. I’ve never been in that type of situation before, but I think I’ll feel really nervous if that happened.
A4. I would give a present to my close friends. I was thinking of an accessory type of thing, but if there’s a request, I’ll go by that. Once a year, it’ll be an expression of gratitude for my friends at school who support me every day.
A5. I’m always aided by Nakajima Kento-kun and Kikuchi Fuuma-kun in “Johnny’s Jr. Land”. I get nervous and can’t talk very much, so I’m grateful when they ask me things during the talk sessions.
Ryuichi Tanimura
A1. It’s been a long time since I drew a picture using crayons, and I remembered the time when I was in kindergarten. I’m not good at drawing, but I like it. I drew this picture, thinking that it would be nice if a snowman could become Santa Claus and send presents to everyone.
A2. A whole short cake. It feels white and pure, and the roundness also feels kind. The strawberry is cute, too.
A3. If we’re walking together, and if our hands touch. If we end up holding hands, I think I would feel really nervous!
A4. I want to give red roses to Sexy Zone with the message of, “Congratulations for the debut!” And I would be happy if they could use the roses for a photo shoot or something!
A5. All day, I had “Johnny’s Jr. Land” shooting, and I became tired after the halfway point… But I told myself, “Since they’re spending precious time, I have to do my best!” and I managed to survive. I have to work harder to gain more strength and make sure that I can stay energetic until the end
