I was so excited to see Taiga on this week's Takichannel! I didnt think that we'll be able to see him so soon, I was kinda expecting some other group like Kisumai to be on this week. But thankfully it's the jrs! Like the JR jrs, not the older jrs.
The talk was pretty straighforward so it was kinda easy to translate. Some parts I had trouble hearing, and I bad at kanji even though most of it was basic T.T I got through it though~
This is basically the intro show where they sit in the desks and introduce themselves, like the other jr.groups who had their first appearance. But with these jrs, they didn't have group ai questions since the members participating are from different groups. There are 12 people today, split into 2 groups of 6 (listed from oldest to youngest):
Group #1:
+Yasui Kentaro 安井謙太郎
+Kyomoto Taiga 京本 大我
+Casey Anderson アンダーソン ケーシー
+Kishimoto Shintaro 岸本慎太郎 (Hip Hop Jump)
+Morimoto Shintaro 森本慎太郎 (HBIC of Jrs/Snow Prince Gasshoudan)
+Otsuka Yuya 大塚祐哉 (Snow Prince Gasshoudan)
-Shintaro likes being naked, Kishimoto loves chocolate, Yasui is a natural speaker and leader (to kids anyways), Taiga receives an awkward silence, Casey says less than 6 syllables, Otsuka is a shining star.
Group #2
+Takada Sho 高田 翔
+Masuda Ryo 増田良
+Nakajima Kento 中島 健人 (B.I Shadow)
+Morohoshi Shoki 諸星翔希 (Hip Hop Jump)
+Kikuchi Fuma 菊池 風磨 (B.I Shadow)
+Tanaka Juri 田中 樹 (Hip Hop Jump)
-Juri keeps his cool, Takada is charming, Fuma is Kento's #1 fan, Morohoshi is awkward, Ryo surprised me.
I think they had moree fun than group #1. Maybe if they put all the older boys together (over 15) and have youngers kid separate, it'll create a more upbeat atmosphere for the previous group. But overall, it was an extremely cute segment just because Otsuka was there. He should be on Takichannel every week. Or everyday. Well, until he hits puberty and becomes awkward a la Morimoto Shintaro.
Enjoy!
Takichan: This week we are going to talk to 12 people!
Takizawa Room Special!
Good Morning everyone! This is your first time in Takizawa Room, how did you feel coming into this room?
Taiga: *poker face* Extremely nervous.
Takichan: The six of you all have a good relationship right?
Everyone: Yes. Yup. It's very good.
Takichan: This is the task of the day: Decide your character!
Let's start with Morimoto-kun!
Shintaro: really? is it okay?
Takichan: What kind of character is Morimoto-kun?
Yasui: He's energetic。
Taiga: Mischevious
Yasui: At rehearsals, he's always having fun
Taiga: There's never a time with bad tension
Yasui: Yes, never!
Otsuka: There are alot of times where you are naked.
Isnt there?
Shintaro: naked? just topless....
Takichan: even at home?
Shintaro: Let's see..from school, I go home and change into pants quickly.
Takichan: Replay that moment please!
Shintaro: *changes clothes* "It's cold!"
Takichan: It's okay to just leave it at that. So now Morimoto-kun will be the character who likes to be naked!
Next it Kishimoto!
Otsuka: *not sure what he says at first*, He really likes sweets for example, chocolate.
Kishimoto: without chocolate, I can't do anything.(?)
Otsuka: You want to eat it everyday every chance you get
Kishimoto: I don't eat it everyday, it's just, if it gets old, I can't eat it(?) because it sometimes come with 2 in a row(?)
Takichan: Show your chocolate enjoying charcter!
Otsuka: what a change! amazing change!
Takichan: Kishimoto is a chocolate enjoying character then!
Then they play a guessing game where you have to guess their character?
Then Taiga showed his character : The impressionist, He imitated Nishikido Ryo's random singing style from Weeeeeek and imitated Fujigaya Taisuke's Inori? or some kind of lustful performance. ensue silence and crickets*
Very embarassing and cute♥
Anderson is the Hetakuso Totsukkomi character: very bad totsukkomi.
In comedy, there is a typical duo, Totsukkimi and Boke. Boke is the airhead, makes alot of mistakes while totsukkomi is the smarter one corrects the mistakes and scold/slaps the Boke.
since "Hetakuso" is used, Anderson is a REALLY BAD totsukkomi. But he's still pretty so it makes up for it♥
Yasui's character is passionate singer? *imitates Takisuba's X~Dame*
Otsuka's turn! and he is exceptionally adorable today.
Hacchake= hard to translate in english because it's a slang word. It describes overflowing/bursting emotion.
Takichan: There is no one that has more hacchake than Otsuka-kun!
Takichan: Now, let's do the ending pose with the hacchake character!
Otsuka: "That was fun~! the end."
+++++++++++++++++++++++Next group!
Takichan: Hello! How is the relationship between you 6?
Fuma: The 4 of us (Juri, Fuma, Morohoshi, Nakaken) started the same year. Then I couldn't understand the rest because Fuma wasn't clear enough, something like, the gap in experience between them and MasuTaka was obvious at first.
Juri: But now we all have an equal relationship.
Takada:Yes, we're always with each other.
Takichan: Today's task: Decide your Character!
Juri: (quietly) cool character, ne.
Everyone: *surprise at his boldness, cheers him to go on*
Juri: WAIT, WAIT!
Morohoshi: He really said it aloud!
Juri: Expectedly, I'd be a cool tounge twister character. (basically use puns in a cool way. I think the eng lit. would be something like smooth- talker)
*Acts out and ends with a cool pose* Too hard to decipher the meaning of the pun X.X
Everyone: ooooo, good, good!
Juri: it's first time being cool.
Takichan: Is his character okay?
Everyone: Yes! It's very good!
Takichan: Now then, Tanaka-kun what kind of character does the next person have?
Juri: For Takada, a character who uses charming eyes would be good. Mejika= lit.eye power
Everyone: Interesting!
Juri&Nakaken: do it to the camera!
Fuma: Do Nishikido-kun's eye charm!
*Takada does them, everyone laughs*
Takichan: One more time, Takada's Eye charm!
*Does it again with flair*
Everyone: Whoahhhhh, *cheers* extremely cool!
Juri: That was kind of amazing right?
Takichan: It's very cool right? If you you use a cool eye charm like that in a love confession, it's expected that they'll fall in love with you. Shall we have you do it?
Everyone: yes! do it~
Fuma: is using suki okay?
Takichan: yes, suki confession is ok!
Everyone: YAYYYY!
Takada:"I really hate saying this but actually, I like you♥"
/Everyone flailing all over/
Nakaken: Oi, Takichan, what would you do? That was dangerous! (refering to the effectiveness of Takada's charm)
Takichan: Next is Nakajima kun!
Takada: He has a wonderful smile.
Fuma: Shining Idol character right?
Takichan: Nakajima is the munekyun character right? (making your heart jump suddenly)
Show us a bit of that!
Nakaken: says a pun: " Rokuchu, Yokuchu, I love chu" ---> us six, all the time, I love you ♥~
*Fuma's heart jumped greatly, others, not so much*
Nakaken: Takichan, how was it?
Takichan: That was good, I want to see a munekyun a second time!
*Blows a kiss, Fuma gets even more flustered*
Takichan: One more time!
Nakaken: This heartmark can nazottara(not sure what it means) to your wish.
*everyone lowers their head in embarrassment*
Takichan: The five of them decided that Fuma is the "getting everybody excited" character!
Where ever Morihoshi goes, he is the "off slip" character!
Masuda, who always jokes around is the "modifying song character"
Masuda: *Sings an enka version of Kiseki*
So, now that we're ending, who should do the last pose?
Fuma: (answers quickly) Masuda.
Masuda: heeeehhh?
"E-everyone around the world, thank you for watching today *rips off shirt* see ya."
