Hello everyone^^ Thanks for all your wonderful comments, they really make my day:) No new developments on the boy fronts...but lately I've been trying to treat everything like a lesson. In other words, it took me a while but by being able to look at the sushi-boy experience as a lesson on when to give up it's made it easier to accept and incorporate into myself. So, I'm trying to frame the others like that too...scarf-boy (I gave him a hand-made scarf for xmas>_<) is a lesson on how to lose gracefully, and snow-boy (the one in my class, because he kept asking when winter was coming so he could see all the snow we get here...idiotXD) is a lesson on how to tell whether it's just friendship or something more. This way I can look at them as personal growth and not romantic failures;) It's not a perfect system, but it's keeping me going^^
And the two weeks of -45celsius weather finally broke! My skin was so dry and cracked my whole body hurt;P It's nice to be able to wait for the bus without worrying about losing toesXD The heat in my apartment doesn't work very well, work is very cold all the time, and school doesn't like to heat the rooms much, so the warmest part of my whole day was my morning shower^^; A co-worker took pity on me and dropped off some box heaters, I have one in front of my computer and one in front of my bedXD
But let's get to the point! Today I have more of Odoroki 5, playing with food and walking in the rain;)
Since
he ran at full speed through the heavy rain the soaking pattern was, of course, his full front and especially his legs. However...]
Ohno: Your back isn't wet. (writing)
Nishimura: His back isn't wet.
[Announcer: It seems that his back was almost not wet at all. So, what'll happen if you walk? Will you get wetter? Or...]
Jun: Ready! Start!
Nino: That's too leisurely!
Takeyama: That's a very manly way of walking. Ohno, a man who isn't moved by the rain. (writing)
Jun: He's kind of deliberately walking more bowlegged than usual. (writing) So, only half a lap left.
Nishimura: He's wet isn;t he~.
Jun: So, that makes 3 laps.
Nishimura: Welcome back~!
Takeyama: Welcome back!
Jun: Yes, yes, yes.
[Announcer: In the end, how much has Ohno's weight gone up from what it was before the experiment, after walking in the rain.]
Takeyama: 57.50kg.
Jun: 420g.
Takeyama: it hasn't changed that much.
[Announcer: Despite the fact the time he was in the rain was over twice the amount of Matsumoto, the difference between the two is
a measely 20g, leading to a vague outcome.]
Takeyama: Unfortunately, there's only a difference of 20g, so... (writing)
Nishimura: I thought there was going to be much more of a difference, that's unexpected isn't it. (writing)
Takeyama: That's fairly vague isn't it.
[Announcer: Could it be that if they changed the conditions they'd get more of a result? So, they double the rain's power to 200mm, and
furthermore they double the course's length to 6 laps, roughly 100m, and re-do the experiment. They change clothes and weigh them one more
time, and preparations are done. So, what will happen to the experiment's result in a typhoon-like downpour? First is 'running will
get you less wet' Matsumoto.]
Ohno: Ready~! Start!
Takeyama: There he goes!
Nishimura: He's fast, he's fast!
Takeyama: His footing is all over the place! So, one lap!
Nishimura: It really is heavy rain conditions huh.
Ohno: Oh, he's soaked.
Takeyama: He's soaked. Why didn't het bring an umbrella? His chest is soaked. (writing)
Ohno: Yeah, it's soaked.
Takeyama: That's rough.
Jun: It's cold! (writing)
Nishimura: Do your best~!
Takeyama: It's the last lap, do your best! Half a lap, go!
Nishimura: Wlecome back!
Takeyama: Done~! Okay, weigh yourself.
[Announcer: So how much has Matsumoto's weight gone up compared to before the experiment, after running in the rain?]
Takeyama: Eh, 64.42kg. In other words, 1720g, or roughly 2kg.
Ohno: It changes that much?
Takeyama: He's wet.
[Announcer: The amount Matsumoto got wet after running continuously through the heavy downpour for 43 seconds is more than a 1.5L
water bottle. It appears that the splashing water absorbed too, his feet are especially wet. This time Ohno will rush into the gale-like
heavy downpour.]
Jun: Ready! Start!
Nishimura: Have a safe trip~. He's boldy walking on. (writing)
Takeyama: Yeah, he's boldly going into it isn't he.
Nishimura: For some reason he looks very manly, as you would expect of Leader.
Ijuuin: They say he looks very manly 'for some reson'? For some reason;P
Takeyama: He's got his eyes closed. (writing)
Jun: He already appears fairly wet doesn't he? (writing)
Nishimura: You're right.
Takeyama: The color has changed over his whole body hasn't it.
Jun: His back isn't wet though is it, after all. (writing)
Nishimura: Amazing! Whether you walk or run your back doesn't get wet. (writing)
Ohno: Ah~. (writing)
Jun: Only half a lap more.
Ohno: Ah~. (writing)
Nishimura: A little more~.
Takeyama: Just a little more and it's over. Alright!
Nishimura: Ah, welcome back~!
Takeyama: Okay, weigh yourself.
[Announcer: In the end, how much has Ohno's weight gone up from before the experiment?]
Jun: 58.86kg.
[Announcer: The amount Ohno got wet after walking in the heavy downpour for 1min 45seconds is 1820g. In other words, the difference
between him and Matsumoto is only 100g. Despite the time in the rain being less, the rain splashed up and the greater area being hit
by the rain could explain it.]
Takeyama: 100g is it... (writing)
Nishimura: About half a cup? (writing)
Takeyama: Frankly, it doesn't change much does it! (writing)
[Announcer: On a side note, to compensate for the difference in body size one of the staff members tried both methods, but...it was
the same result as before after all. So I guess I'll stop running in the rain.]
Sho: It didn't change much did it? Unbelievably.
Ijuuin: If that's how it is those of us in the Fat industry will choose not to run at all after this. (writing)
Chizuru: On top of which, walking is more cool and dramatic. (writing)
Sho: You're a romantic?
Chizuru: Yeah.
Sho: Next is this here: an experiment quiz for everybody from Arashi~! What will happen if you put that in a vaccuum~? (writing)
[Announcer: So, let's go to the mysterious vaccuum quiz. With this vaccuum machine they gradually suck all of the air out of this
acrylic case and create a vaccuum state. At that time if you put shortcake, soapy water, or a daifuku inside the case, what would
happen? Arashi already did the experiments earlier, so please answer, guests.]
Sho: We'd like to start with the daifuku. (sweet rice-flour doughy confection)
Jun: What do you guys think will happen?
Ijuuin: Eh, well, if you think about it normally I think nothing will happen at all. I mean, foodstuffs are put into vaccuum packs.
(writing) Doing it on purpose doesn't mean anything will happen, right?
Fukuda: It'll get super tiny, the daifuku.
Ogura: Ah, squish up really tiny?
Sho: What do you think Tokui-san?
Tokui: I also think it will squish, and in the places where the mochi skin is thinnest the anko will burst out, in an extremely
erotic way. (writing)
Ogura: What do you think Yuuka?
Yuuka: Couldn't it just go 'bam!'? (writing)
Jun: Explode?
[Announcer: So, what will happen to a daifuku in a vaccuum?]
Sho: Please begin the vaccuum experiment!
Aiba: Go!
Nino: It's not changing much.
Jun: It's not a vaccuum yet is it.
Tokui: I'm really excited.
Ijuuin: It changed? (writing)
Yuuka: It's ballooning.
Jun: Right!
Aiba: Here it comes, here it comes.
Jun: Here it comes, here it comes.
Tokui: What's going on?
Yuuka: Scary, scary.
Nino: It's super huge!
Ijuuin: How far is it going to go??
Chizuru: Scary, scary!
Sho: Huge!
Nino: Go up!
Sho: Oh, it's plateaued.
Aiba: Ah~, huge.
Nino: If you stop it it'll go back.
Chizuru: Eh, you're stopping it?
Aiba: Uwa, it looks like it'll taste bad.
[Announcer: Which means that the correct answer is, the daifuku will expand like a balloon. But exactly why is that?]
Jun: Hey, I wonder what it tastes like.
Aiba: Huh? Tasty;P The falvor doesn't change. (writing)
Sho: Why does it expand?
Sensei: It's because it has a skin, right. (writing)
Nino: He said that so incredibly matter-of-factly;P Why does it get bigger? (writing)
Sensei: The inside stays the same pressure while the pressure outside decreases, so it expands to fit the space.
Chizuru: What would happen with materials that don't expand?
Sensei: Non-expanding materials would break or blow up. (writing)
Aiba: He's like 'what are you saying?'.
Chizuru: Why was he talking to me like that?? (writing)
[Announcer: Next is the shortcake. What'll happen to this one?]
Fukuda: The one earlier expanded, so I think this one will expand to and be like a whole cake. (writing)
Sho: Yuuka-san, what do you think?
Yuuka: Ah, I think it'll go 'bang'. (writing)
Sho: Go bang, I see.
Nino: All you've said for a while now is 'bang'. (writing)
Tokui: Despite that, since there's nothing wrapped inside of it I think it'll become a teeny tiny super cute shortcake. Then everyone
will be like 'so cute~!'. (writing)
Ogura: Tamaki-sensei, what do you think will happen?
Tamaki: I think it'll be squished flat, so that the air can get out. (writing)
Aiba: Ah, is that so.
[Announcer: Will it really be squished flat? In the end, what'll happen to the shortcake?]
Sho: If you please!
[Announcer: After this shortcake-chan makes an unthinkable transformation. Question proposed by Arashi, a vaccuum experiment quiz.
What would happen if you put shortcake inside a case and sucked all the air out of it?]
Sho: If you please!
Tokui: This isn't related, but...
Ijuuin: What is it that's expanding?
Chizuru: Ah, the cream, it's the whipped cream.
Ijuuin: The cream is moving!
Sho: And the strawberry?
Ijuuin: The strawberry isn't changing.
Aiba: The strawberry isn't changing?
Ijuuin: The strawberry isn't changing.
Chizuru: The cream, the whipped cream...!
Ijuuin: The cream is expanind an incredible amount.
Chizuru: The air is escaping. Uwa, amazing. I wsant to eat it like this.
Sho: It looks delicious doesn't it.
Ogura: If you ate it in zero gravity then everybody would be able to eat it, right. Pay attention to the castella-type parts. They're
just the way they are.
Ijuuin: The castella got overcome didn't it.
Jun: Stopping it.
Nino: I want to eat it like that.
Yuuka: Me too~.
Sho: Tamaki-sensei, it was the opposite (of what you predicted) wasn't it. (writing)
Tamaki: Eh, it didn't get squished?
Nino: No, it expanded.
Tamaki: No no, you saw it wrong. (writing)
[Announcer: Too bad Tamaki-sensei. The correct answer is, the air inside the whipped cream swells and expands.]
Ogura: This is it, this is the question. It's soapy water.
Sho: What will happen to it?
Chizuru: The air inside will try to get out, right?
Ogura: That's right.
Sho: Just like the ones before.
Chizuru: So when it tries to get out it'll kind of bubble...
Tokui: It'll bubble, and then separate into water and soap.
Sho: It'll separate??
Tokui: That's right, it'll bubble, and then this part will get more and more solid...soap and water.
Sho: Yuuka-san, how about you?
Yuuka: I think it'll go 'bang!'. (writing)
Nino: You've been saying nothing but 'bang!' for a while now!
Fukuda: She's making a face like 'is that a problem?'. (writing)
Ogura: Sensei, what do you think?
Suzuki: First it'll boil. (writing)
Ogura: Boil?
Suzuki: For example, if you cook rice at the top of Mt. Fuji it'll boil at 87 degrees celsius.
Ogura: Ah, yes.
Suzuki: In a vaccuum the boiling point will become extraordinarily low.
Tokui: Boil~.
Ijuuin: it'll boil?
Sensei: I think it's dangerous. (writing)
Yuuka: Dangerous?
[Announcer: The soapy water experiment has led to a 'dangerous' theory, but the experiment begins.]
Tokui: Eh, what'll happen?
Chizuru: The surface is kind of...
Ijuuin: Ah, it's kind of bubbling. Ah~, there it is. It's here.
Aiba: Ah, it's here.
Chizuru: It's becoming cream.
Ogura: It's here.
Yuuka: Ah, it's bubbling an incredible amount.
Nino: Here it is, here it is.
All: Amazing~!
Nino: It's a soap snake!
Aiba: Mysterious.
Jun: You can't see the cup anymore, huh.
Ijuuin: What happens if you add the air in?
Jun: Oh no~.
Yuuka: It goes away!
Sho: How about it, sensei?
Sensei: Uh-huh. (writing)
Chizuru: There's the result, 'uh-huh'.
Sensei: In the end it's an explosion. Evaporation. If you do something extreme it gets dangerous. (writing) Boil in front of people.
Sho: What about you, sensei?
Mizoguchi: I think it won't boil. The oxygen, the air inside will come out and just create soap bubbles. In my opinion this isn't
dangerous. (writing)
Sho: We have a new dispute. (writing) What do you think Hara-sensei?
Hara: As the pressure drops the boiling point will gradually drop, so it'll boil from inside. (writing)
Sho: Ah, you're on the boiling side right. (writing)
Nino: You're making this annoying!
Sho: The next experiment that a scholar wanted to try at least once is this here: can you fly in the sky in a balloon made of newspaper?
(writing)
[Announcer: After this, the chicken Sakurai finally heads into the big sky in a newspaper balloon.]
Chizuru: Amazing, amazing.
[Announcer: Furthermore, as is the established custom, there's shocking clips from the 'leave-it' experiments, one after another.]
Sho: The next experiment that a scholar wanted to try at least once is this here: can you fly in the sky in a balloon made of newspaper?
(writing)
[Announcer: Last time they did the experiment on the suggestion of Enomae-sensei, who studies paper at Tokyo University. Can you fly
in the sky in a balloon made of newspaper? They attempted it with a giant balloon that took a month to make. (writing)]
Jun: It's real.
[Announcer: Heating up the air inside with a burner the balloon expanded as planned and finally began to rise? Or so they thought, but
thanks to the light materials they used to make it the bottom half of the balloon that was only made out of 1 sheet of newspaper ripped
away in under a minute. The experiment was a big failure. All felt sad. (writing) However, sakurai, who got away without having to
fly, unbelievably smiled.]
[writing: Will they get revenge?]
[Announcer: In the end, will they get revenge? After proposing this experiment again Enomae-sensei reflected on the regrets of last
time and once again asked that they make not only the balloon, but also the wires and baskets out of newspaper.]
Ogura: What were the points that you regretted last time? (writing)
Enomae: Um, when there's a hole it has twice the power riding on it as compared to the place without the hole. So, if you put two
sheets on top of each other and make it sturdy I don't think it'll tear that easily. Is it okay if I do an experiment? (writing)
Sho: Yes.
Nino: Wouldn't it be better not to?
Enomae: Ah. (writing)
Nino: That's why I said you shouldn't!
Enomae: It's stronger than before. (writing)
Kojima: Last time it looks like the wind blew when it was rising upwards. When the wind blows on it there will definitely be pressure
there. If you could get windless conditions I think it would fly quite well. (writing)
Sho: Well then, how would our guests be thinking about it?
Ijuuin: Since you already know what went wrong last time, won't it work? (writing)
Yuuka: I want it to work as well.
Sho: How about you, Tokui-san?
Tokui: Well, the newspaper articles, if you use ones that aren't concerning heavy news... (writing)
Nino: Calculate them?
Tokui: Light things, like 'duck and duckling's big move'. (writing)
Nino: Make it light.
Tokui: Lighter is definitely better.
Ogura: Hara-sensei, when you light up the burners isn't there a concern about the paper burning?
Hara: I think it'll be okay. The burning point of paper os over 200celsius; around the burner it may b that hot, but once it mixes with
the surrounding air and reaches a normal temperature I think it'll hold up fine. (writing)
Sho: Professors, would those of you who think it will fly please identify yourselves.
Ogura: Mizoguchi-sensei, you're the only one remaining unmoved aren't you.
Mizoguchi: If you think about the very apex of the balloon that's where all of the pressure will be, so I think it will rip. The higher
you go the more impossible it will be.
[Announcer: Unbelievably, all the scholars other than Mizoguchi-sensei believe it will fly. That's quite brave. We don't want any
more of what happened last time!]
Jun: Can you fly in the sky in a balloon made of newspaper~?!
Sho: Isn't it enough already... (writing)
Jun: Why is that?
Sho: I don't like high places. I-
Jun: But last time you didn't fly!
[Announcer: Putting aside the non-stop complaining Sakurai, the observers are Degawa-san, continuing from last time, and Osawa-san.]
Degawa: You're going to do it again?
Jun: We're doing it again.
Degawa: Honestly, frankly, I think it's impossible. (writing)
Jun: No no no, it can work.
Osawa: I saw the broadcast last time, I didn't think it was going to rip. (writing)
[Announcer: And the one who is helping with making the balloon this time as well is this person, 25 years of balloon experience, specialist
Satou-san. According to Satou-san there are two points that led to the failure last time and need a big overhaul.]
Jun: First, last time in aiming to lighten the materials we made the whole bottom half of the balloon body using only one sheet, right.
Osawa: Yes.
Jun: Because of that it wasn't very strong and ripped there, right.
Osawa: Yes.
Jun: So, this time the whole balloon will be two layers of newspaper. (writing)
Osawa: An unbelievable 2 layers?
Jun: We've done it.
Sho: Last time it was one layer because it would get heavier right? (writing)
Jun: That's right.
Sho: So obviously with two layers it's going to get heavier right. (writing)
Satou: So this time, um, we're going to have the burner inside of the ballon. (writing)
[Announcer: Last time, to reduce the weight of materials, they used the method of heating up the air inside the balloon and leaving
the burner on the ground. However, if you do that as soon as the balloon flies the temperature inside it will decrease and it will
lose buoyancy. Since this time they're making the whole thing out of two layers of newspaper they need much more lift. So that's why
the plan is to fix on the burner inside the balloon and continue heating it.]
Ijuuin: This can work.
You know, I had been looking forward to the result from the rain experiment, because the last time my mother was here she told me someone had done an experiment and proved you get more wet when you runO_o Now apparently it's the same either way...and yet my first instinct is always to runXD Oh well...what's with Yuuka, wanting everything to blow up?^^; But I absolutely loved Aiba when he ate the deflated daifuku, so cute<3 And Jun's reasoning on why Sho should fly was so clever and funnyXD If it doesn't work they should call him FuSho as a nickname;P More next time!=)
Hope you're all going forward confidently in your lives^^ And next week is Chinese New Year...two friends and I are going to celebrate a late xmas (we haven't exchanged gifts yet), eat fondue, and watch HanaDanFinal:3 For those of you who celebrate, happy New Year:D See you soon;)
壁があったら乗り越えるしかないよ。自分に限界付けるのは自分だけです。そう信じていますから頑張れる。
