*note: I'm sorry I can't offer an accompanying scan, but the place I got the scans from stated strictly no reposting... >.< And also, unlike the previous interview I posted which only Ueda did, all the KAT-TUN members were in this interview. However, I only have Ueda's part. So if anyone has seen the scans for other members, please point me in the right direction. I would love to translate them too :)) Thank you to
eevaleena for pointing out the link to me ^__^ Will be translating the other members' parts shortly.

Q1: What kind of food would you like your girlfriend to cook for you?
Nutritious food that is good for the body. If it's a rare opportunity I would like her to cook something I can't. I'm not fussy about taste so it's alright. (laugh)
Q2: What phrase would you like to say while confessing?
I would like to say "Become my woman!" at least just once. (laugh) Would it be treated as a joke?
Q3: What would you like to give your girlfriend on her birthday?
Basically I would ask her. If she says anything is fine I would search around. If it's for her birthday things such as accessories would be good?
Q4: What would you like to wear to a first date?
Same as usual. Hence the girl should dress normally too. But if she puts in a little more effort than usual, I would be happy!
Q5: What kind of date plan would you definitely be happy with?
Although it's okay to meet first and ask 'what shall we do?', I'm the type that at least wants to decide whether we are going out or spending time at home before hand.
Q6: What songs would you like to sing when going to karaoke with your girlfriend?
I don't really go to karaoke that much. Hence, I don't know. When I'm starting on a job it would be "Real Face" for sure!
Q7: At what moment do you think 'I did it!'?
When I hit a superb record with the batting machines at game centres!! But no one else other than the shopkeeper saw it... (tears)
Q8: An action of a girl that makes your heart skip a beat?
When there is something that makes her happy, and she directs that emotion to me through her smile, I like that.
Q9: What are the 3 requirements you have for your girlfriend?
Someone kind, someone family-oriented, someone who would not cheat on me. In any case she cannot cheat on me. If she does I will lose trust in humanity...
Q10: When would you think a girl is cute?
Her shy/embarrassed face. For example, when we are bowling, she misses and walks back looking embarrassed.
Q11: If a girl is going to cosplay for you, what would you like her to dress up in?
A dress. Unexpectedly, I like how girls look in dresses. (laugh) Something like a party dress. (T/N: I don't know how that counts as cosplay but well, that's what he said)
Q12: What type of cosplay would you like to try out?
No matter how you look at it, I don't seem like the type to cosplay right? Hence, it's ok not to do it. (laugh) (T/N: I wonder where he got that opinion from orz)
Q13: If you could use magic what would you do?
I want to live forever. But it would be boring if all my friends are no longer around, so I would make about 10 of them live forever too!
Q14: Requirements of men that you think are cool?
Someone who is not timid, stands firm and has faith in what he does. Also, someone who is kind. Someone that, even to women, can be smart and kind.
Q15: Please tell us about your current dream!
I want to try out an incredible role. Like a high-IQ criminal. As far as possible, a character with hair, please.
Q16: If you could go back to being a student, what are the top 3 things you would like to do?
First is to go to a co-ed school! Then, 2nd is to quarrel with a girl during the school excursion. (laugh) Third is to be 'youthful' during preparations for the school cultural festival.
Q17: How do you recover when you are feeling down?
Although I would want to shut myself in my own world, there is a part of me that wants to be cared for by my friends too. Hence, I do self-reflection first before meeting my friends.
Q18: Recently what items are you into?
A mostly green, monster-like mobile phone strap with half shut eyes. It's somewhat cute, so I've been attaching it (to my phone).
Q19: What do you consider as a small luxury?
To spend about 5000 yen (~64 USD) at the convenience store! After buying things that I want, like vegetable juice, it becomes that amount.
Q20: What is the thing you want to do the most now?
I want to act in various roles. For now I will work hard during the filming of "Eien no Zero"! (T/N: Magazine interviews are typically done around 2 months in advance, so this was done before he shaved his head in early July for Eien no Zero)
