KAT-TUN (Kamenashi Kazuya's Going! my way) - Potato March 2011
As promised, going back to translations!
First up is requested by ina through help_japan.
Started with Vol.3, so going backwards now.
Translation. Kame's Going! serial in Potato, talking about his experience in Guam with Kyojin players, experiencing their voluntary training.
Kamenashi Kazuya's Going! my way Vol.2
We followed Kamenashi who participated in the voluntary training of the players from the Kyojin team that happened in Guam. Even though he said, "It's my first time to interact so much" with the three players including Abe-san, Kamenashi quickly adapted and the figures of them sweating together really shone!

Kamenashi, Going! to Kyojin team's voluntary training in Guam
In the heat that seems like your sweat would gush out by just being outside, there was Kamenashi who was in the condition of a baseball boy tackling the training with sparkling eyes, saying "When it's warm, my body feels light! Right now, my body is as light as when I was in elementary school." He would do interviews in between while going through the whole training menu together with players, so it was a roke where there was no time to rest. [Note: Roke means filming that happens on location, outside of studio] Despite that, he never showed a tired expression even once and the figure of him being considerate to the timing of interviews and people around him gives us a chance to peek at his professional look towards work that's different from that of being a baseball boy. The power of switching over is as expected of him!
When practice ended, Kamenashi casually spoke to player Sakamoto, "Baseball is fun. It's great that everyone does it together", and in those words, his pure feelings of "like" towards baseball filled them.
(Caption on photo of Kame talking to one of the players - "For interviews, I'm expanding it from the flow of the conversation." He's pulling out answers about things he wants to ask naturally.)
(Caption on photo of Kame being taught, holding a bat - While asking player Abe "Is there any tricks to placing my weight on (my legs)?", he's having his form checked.)
(Caption on photo of Kame with other players during meal - He had dinner with the players. "It was hard doing interviews while eating!")
With this time's interviews, I saw with my own eyes professionals' "way of bodybuilding", "the way to get ready the body's condition" and such. Things like how should I maintain my body in order to give more than 100% of myself during a game and how should I build my body that would be better, it has really been a learning experience. I myself have times where I end up finishing concerts and such with adrenaline, so if I start adjusting earnestly a bit before concerts, would it be different? I felt something like that as well. Professionals always carry the feelings of going to improve and they're people who are really charming even with parts where it's not just about skills. Of course they're self-conscious as professionals, but they can see the people around them properly, and they're really fascinating! Not just about baseball, but as a person, I really learned from them.
Like how the players do bodybuilding, I often did practices for singing, dancing, and acting when I was a Junior. Right now, when I'm singing, when I'm doing "Going!", when I'm acting...since each one of them are a different channel within me, it's hard to narrow down and focus on one thing like all the players. That's why I want to have fundamental skills properly. Besides, I'm doing all sorts of things now and it is also a time to broaden my own channel. Including the fact that I'm part of the group called KAT-TUN, to broaden the possibilities of myself as Kamenashi Kazuya, I have to do various things now so that when I have to choose something in the future, people around me will be able understand that choice.
Also, while Abe-san taught me the way to hit a homerun, I felt once again that there are various theories and ways to strive for a homerun. Hereon, I want to blend the advices and good points I got from everyone and put together a way to hit that fits my own body and hit a homerun soon!

The first day of my personal experience at Guam's voluntary training has ended safely!!
As I thought, I felt once again that professionals are amazing
Voluntary training...
When I thought it was practising more roughly...
It was quite hard...
But, while relaxing and having fun,
Players each carry a sense of danger and tackle the training!
It was a really thoughtful period of time
I want to do voluntary training starting next year too
Of my principal occupation
But
When is my off-season??
I don't have much to say. =v= Hope it was enjoyable reading about Kame and baseball.
Comments are love and appreciated~
