2002 (I think) Valentine's Day Interviews: Jin, Kame, Pi
Valentine's Day interviews, from sometime in 2002, I think. If somebody could pinpoint it better for me (including the magazine), I'd be very happy. :-)

Jin:
I don't have particularly good memories of Valentine's day. Well, during primary school, the popular ones were the funny guys, or the clever guys, or the sporty guys, right? But even if you say 'sports'. it wasn't soccer or something like that, but things like "he can jump over 8 levels of the vaulting horse", guys whose strong point was gymnastics. So I to~tally wasn't popular (cries). I almost thought "I wish Valentine's day didn't exist!" So even now, when I get chocolate, I'm really happy.
Even so, during my fourth year at primary school, I once got chocolate from a girl I always always played with. But that's to say, when we were playing, it was handed over with a ca~sual feeling and a "Here you are." So it was duty chocolate (laughs). I was happy anyway. I was happy!! Despite that, I didn't give her a return gift on White Day. I was too shy, so I asked a friend. Nowadays, I regret it and think "That was so pathetic." Thinking about that girl's feelings, it was a bad thing, right? She probably wanted to get it from me personally.
My personality is really difficult. Kame often tells me things like "You're special," or "You're the type who can understand his male friends, but can't understand girls." Why do I think that a girl going out with me is troublesome? I really want a girlfriend. But dating sucks. I'm inconsistent, huh? If you ask why, I don't understand it myself! I guess I'm complicated (laughs).
Kame:
In primary school, the girl I liked changed constantly. I'd start liking them or disliking them for really petty reasons. In first year, I heard from the friend of this girl I liked, "In OO-san's house, they wash only once every two days!", and I just grew cold towards her (laughs). Really, when I think about it now, it was a weird thing to say!
I'm not boasting, but on Valentine's day, I was able to get chocolates just like that. But the result varied (laughs). In fourth year of primary school, I got some chocolate-covered strawberries and like an idiot I didn't eat them for three days, so they went off (cries). In fifth year, a really cute girl confessed to me! But a week after, I bought her a Giabbit* plushie and said '"I like you too ♥". Then… she said "I prefer unrequited love," and dumped me (cries). Moreover, in second year of middle school, after I joined the Juniors, girls who had been giving me duty chocolate up till then stopped giving me any~. So I asked '"Why aren't you giving me any~y?" and it was, "Is it okay to give you some?" Even though I joined the Juniors, I was still me! To be looked at differently was totally sucky. So, schoolgirls, just all give me some!!
If I were to get chocolate, first thing in the morning of Valentine's day would be best. That way, the day would be super enjoyable all day, right? If I had a girl I liked, and she gave me chocolate, I'd give her handmade cookies in return! I don't know if I can make them or not, but I'd do my utmost to meet the challenge!

Pi:
Eh, another discussion about love? Didn't we just talk about that at Christmas…? Boo-hoo. When it comes to talking about love, I'm really out of my element. Or rather, there's just nothing to say. So "my favourite type" is just "the girl I happen to fall in love with," and I've never thought about stuff like "I want to have this sort of date, that sort of date, with this sort of relationship." But I simply think that to be able to be together with the person you like is enough. I don't need a reason to 'fall in love' with a person. Of often hear things like "she's kind so I fell in love" or "I fell for the way she wears her hair", but somehow I just don't get that. I mean, am I supposed to fall in love with all the kind people or all the people with a sexy hairdo in the world? Anyway, where I'm concerned, when I fell in love I didn't think about some reason!
But soon it's Valentine's Day… We~el, I don't remember ever feeling all excited. When love starts to bloom, I really feel like it's summer. Yeah. Definitely. Because, well, winter is cold, right? When it's cold, everybody gets a cold and is in a bad mood, right? On a beach in the middle of summer, I want to get all excited with everyone from morning to evening! It doesn't really matter if I'm not together with a girl, I just want to go to the beach~. (Uh, but the topic is talk about love…) I wonder if summer will come quickly. I hate the cold!
