R-ONE KAT-TUN No.303 2012.01.23
U: Hello everyone, I’m Ueda Tatsuya
N: Hello everyone, I’m Nakamaru Yuichi
U: Smiley radio go show ha! We’re at the 303rd episode!
N: Ah, I went to eat with Hasebe-senshu [1] the other day
S: (laughs)
U: How many times are you going to talk about this?!
N: This is only the 2nd time
U: So is there any progress?
N: The content is the same as reported 2 weeks ago…
U: Then why are you talking about this now?
N: I just thought of it! It’s Hasebe-senshu!
U: I already said I don’t know who he is
N: But you know who is he now right? He’s the same age as us, the captain of the Japan national soccer team! You must have remember this
U: …I exchanged contact details with Hamed [2] the other day
N: Who’s that? Who’s that? Who’s that?
U: A boxer named Hamed
N: Oh
U: Even though I said it, you don’t know who he is right?
N: I don’t
U: So you see
S: (laughs)
N: How’s he like?
U: How’s he like? He’s a boxer (laughs)
N: So this boxer, how is he like? Is he famous?
U: He’s very famous! He’s awesome…
N: Which level?
U: Level… Probably at a high level
N: Ah~ I mean which level is he at? Is he a world champion?
U: Yes, he is. And the style which he uses to compete is awesome. You know that usually boxers will adopt an Orthodox stance [3] right? But he would be using No Guard [4] stance. You’ve seen that right? Like in “Fighting Spirit” [5]
N: Ah~ Like that!
U: Using one’s natural ability to win
N: Eh~? …So you exchanged email address with him?
U: Nope, that’s a lie
N: It’s a lie!
U: I lied! Because I want you to understand my feelings
N: I was going to continue asking, “I see, what the two of you talk about in emails?”
UN: (laughs)
N: …You lied to me
U: I did, so as to let you understand my feelings!
N: I see, so it’s this feeling
U: Hn~
N: Ah, but I was interested, I even asked you, “How’s he like?”
U: Ah, you did
N: This just goes to show that you’re not interested in what I’m talking about!
U: Nothing like that
N: It’s like that! It’s like that! Maybe it’s not just me, but you’re like that with others too?
U: No, I’m not like that! I’m not like that!
N: So it’s just me?
U: Hn (laughs) Probably
N: (laughs) Don’t joke with me! I’m the one doing this radio programme with you!
UN: (laughs)
N: I see, so shall we start the programme proper?
U: Hn!
N: Then, let’s start tonight’s programme!
N: This week, Ueda will get to pick the song

U: Okay
N: We’ll see you next week

Translator’s notes:
[1] Nakamaru refers to Hasebe Makoto here. Senshu means team member and Nakamaru addressed him like this to refer to his title. Nakamaru first mentioned that he ate with Hasebe-senshu on R-ONE KAT-TUN No.301 2012.01.09.
[2] Ueda refers to Naseem Hamed here. He is an English former professional boxer, WBO, WBC, IBF, & Lineal featherweight champion, and European bantamweight champion.
[3] An Orthodox stance is where the boxer places his left foot farther in front of the right foot. This is mostly used by right-handed boxers, as it favors the boxer’s stronger, dominant side.
[4] No Guard stance means that the boxer hangs his two arms down and does not use them to protect his body. If you have watched Ashita no Joe movie starring Yamashita Tomohisa, his character Joe adopted No Guard stance in the boxing matches.
[5] Fighting Spirit, known in Japan as The First Step (Hajime no Ippo), is a boxing manga and anime series created by Joji Morikawa. The plot follows the story of high school student Makunouchi Ippo, as he begins his career in boxing and over time obtains many titles and defeats various opponents.
[6] “Majissuka?” literally means “Really?”. Recently, Nakamaru has also been hosting a segment named “Majissuka?”, where he goes around Japan discovering new trends and places, saying “Majissuka?”. This segment is in the weekly news variety show, “Shuuichi”.
[7] “Is this a work command?” 「それは業務命令ですか？」and “I understand” 「承知しました」are lines from the drama, Kaseifu no Mita. I believe Ueda is a fan of this drama; this is the 3rd time he mentioned something related to this drama on R-ONE KAT-TUN.

Translator’s notes:
[1] Nakamaru refers to Hasebe Makoto here. Senshu means team member and Nakamaru addressed him like this to refer to his title. Nakamaru first mentioned that he ate with Hasebe-senshu on R-ONE KAT-TUN No.301 2012.01.09.
[2] Ueda refers to Naseem Hamed here. He is an English former professional boxer, WBO, WBC, IBF, & Lineal featherweight champion, and European bantamweight champion.
[3] An Orthodox stance is where the boxer places his left foot farther in front of the right foot. This is mostly used by right-handed boxers, as it favors the boxer’s stronger, dominant side.
[4] No Guard stance means that the boxer hangs his two arms down and does not use them to protect his body. If you have watched Ashita no Joe movie starring Yamashita Tomohisa, his character Joe adopted No Guard stance in the boxing matches.
[5] Fighting Spirit, known in Japan as The First Step (Hajime no Ippo), is a boxing manga and anime series created by Joji Morikawa. The plot follows the story of high school student Makunouchi Ippo, as he begins his career in boxing and over time obtains many titles and defeats various opponents.
[6] “Majissuka?” literally means “Really?”. Recently, Nakamaru has also been hosting a segment named “Majissuka?”, where he goes around Japan discovering new trends and places, saying “Majissuka?”. This segment is in the weekly news variety show, “Shuuichi”.
[7] “Is this a work command?” 「それは業務命令ですか？」and “I understand” 「承知しました」are lines from the drama, Kaseifu no Mita. I believe Ueda is a fan of this drama; this is the 3rd time he mentioned something related to this drama on R-ONE KAT-TUN.
