RYO
-Tell us the schedule of one of your most recent day-off.
Recently? I have no days-off! (lol). What could I do if I had a day-off today...I want to take a stroll. For example in a onsen city. Lately I feel like going to a onsen city. Where there are many souvenirs shops and target practice places. Those kind of ancient onsen cities. I love the movie "Spirited Away", I want to go to a place with an atmosphere similar to the one of the movie. I don't really want to enter the hot springs so it doesn't matter if there are any of them. I just want to sense that atmosphere. Some time ago I went to Beppu for some filming and it was so nice. The streets were covered by the hot water steam. The steam came up from some kind of ditch too. It was amazing.
[So you want to go to a place with hot springs but you don't want to enter the hot springs...what's the point? XD]
-Are you struck by women's glances?
Nope. Probably I'd be if it's a glance from the girl I like. I do think that it's cute but because the girl I like is always cute for me. There is even the possibility that when a girl glances at me on purpose I'll start to dislike her because of that. I'd think: "What is she doing?". What? Glances are always done on purpose? That's not true, no! I don't like girls who think that just glancing they can conquer a boy. I really hate it. I don't mean the glances, but the girls who aim at that. Like, when they part the food when you're out to eat. Those planned gesture are really not ok to me.
[Wow, so convinced! Isn't it a little too much? It's not that every time a girl glances a boy she just wants to conquer him in one time or something...]
-Sorry for being so sudden, but please tell us a cute side of Yamapi.
I think he's cute pretty often. Firstly, the fact that when you try to call him he always calls you back (lol). Lately we met around 4 times. Everytime I called him he never answered and called me back, next time I'll do the same for him. Anyway if we answer at the first time we properly talk of course. Then, when it was his birthday we asked him to tell something after blowing the candles. He was cute at that time too. His behaviour when we asked that and the things he said too.
-When did you think: "I'm good!" or "I'm not good at all!" lately?
Right now! (lol). Right now I'm fine. I mean, I'm doing my best and I'm shooting all these interviews one after one, right? Work is going on smoothly and I'm good at it. On the contrary, I think I'm not good when I don't do efforts or I arrive late. Some time ago I had some recording and I was super hungry. I was so hungry that my stomach started to hurt while I was singing. I asked for something to eat and the staff had to wait for me while I was eating. That time I was no good. When I work there's always somebody planning their time for me. That's why I think that I can't use that time only for myself. I really couldn't help myself that time but I don't feel good about it the same. If possible I always want work to go smoothly.
[He's a really nice man. His thoughts and efforts on work are admirable ^^]
SHIGE
-Tell us the schedule of one of your most recent day-off.
Some time ago I was out for dinner with friends and Maruyama-kun, Ohkura-kun and Yasuda-kun joined us. I thought: "Eh?! Am I in Kanjani8?!" (lol). I always go out with Maruyama-kun, sometimes with Yasuda-kun too, but it was the first time I went out with Ohkura-kun. We started to talk and there was the question: "What do you do in your days-off?", exactly like this interview (lol). Being around guys from Kanjani8 Maruyama-kun's behaviour was a little different from usual. When he's with me he's very calm and restful, with Ohkura-kun he was all bright and funny saying "Weeeeei!", it was something new to see him like that.
[Maru and Shige are my ichiban x_x Gosh they are my ideal men, I can't get over the fact they hung out X_X too.much.perfection.]
-Are you struck by women's glances?
I am, I am, but I manage to stay calm (lol). Doing "Hanawake" I've been asked questions about women, things like: "Between the 4 sisters which was your favourite type?", to the death (lol). I've always kept vague with my answers but now that it's ended...I thought that it must be the Sakurako played by Kanjiya-san. We spent so many time together, in the end I got on to it (lol). Anyway, Shozaburo really got a bad reputation~ (lol). But I'm his only friend so I must defend him! Girls are confused too...to be reassured or stimulated? They say: "From the point of view of men love and marriage are two different things". But don't women think the same too? But well, flirting is no good and with sisters is the worst possible (lol).
-Sorry for being so sudden, but please tell us a cute side of Koyama.
Whyy~ (lol). He has a lot of non-cute sides. For example, lately I invited him out for dinner and he didn't come. (Suddenly talking like a Okama*) I really hate that kid! Anyway he properly replies with a "sorry!" and that's cute! It's impossible to hate him!
[*Okama = Someone who plays the opposite sex - And I really want to hear that from Shige! X°D Anyway, they are so cute ><]
-When did you think: "I'm good!" or "I'm not good at all!" lately?
Watching myself in the drama in TV I felt down so many times, like: "I should have done it differently". Anyway I'm really happy I've been chosen to play that role. Some friends who know me well told me that this was the role they liked the most until now. I've quite always played "soft" roles in dramas, I'm very happy with this but somehow I wanted to rebel to it a little. That's why playing such a different role felt refreshing and interesting. Eh? You had many half-naked scenes? Yes, I did! And moreover they always told me that suddenly during the filming! Sometimes I thought: "Damn! Yesterday I ate too much salt and drank too much water, I'm swelling!" (lol).
[LOL Shige you're so thin, you really don't have to worry about salt or water XD]
MASSU
-Tell us the schedule of one of your most recent day-off.
Lately I never had a full day-off. When I've got free time I think to Tegomass lives lately. Then I must work to memorize the songs, think about the performances. Eh? How do I memorize the lyrics? Firstly I must fall in love with the song, listen to it many and many times...doesn't it work like that? Anyway sometimes it happens that I sing the second song as the first (lol).
-Are you struck by women's glances?
Not that much. A sweet face? Well...of course I like that...No, no, I'm no good with that in the end. I don't hate to be spoiled and I don't hate girls who use their womanhood as a weapon. Honestly I like people who give the idea that they're very self-confident. Girls that are like: "I don't really need to glance on you, my charm is already enough!". I like feminine girls but if they think that glances are their weapon...I don't really like that kind of consciousness, definitely.
[Really? I'm not getting this. If I'm not supposed to consciously glare the boy I like how should I approach him or flirt with him?! Guys do that too! O.O That's weird, why do they consider it so badly? lol]
-Sorry for being so sudden, but please tell us a cute side of Shige.
I talked about it time ago, the fact that even if he's doing 100 sit-ups everyday you can't see muscles on him at all (lol). Then, I said this a thousand times though, when we worked to "Kinpachi Sensei" we once went out with all the other classmates. Then an old married couple asked us: "Sorry, could you take a photo?" and Shige refused feeling very sorry: "Sorry, we're not allowed to take photos". But that man meant: "Could you take a picture of us and the scenary here?" (lol). I admit that many times before we were asked for pictures and had to refuse though.
(Shige besides him grumbles: "Ah~ It happened 10 years ago, will you go on telling this story for my whole life?!")
Yes, that's sure (lol).
[I will never get tired of this story X°D]
-When did you think: "I'm good!" or "I'm not good at all!" lately?
I had both of them. My aim this year was to read each month a book, that makes 12 books in a year. I've never been too much of a reader but I thought it was amusing when I went to the library to choose books. I tried books that were recommended on magazines or I just chose them by the cover, like a CD jacket. Anyway the pace with which I bought them wasn't the same with which I read them (lol). I thought that it was possible to take a book and read it here and there but in reality I have so many I haven't read yet...eh? How many of them? I'll keep it secret for now (lol).
TEGOSHI
-Tell us the schedule of one of your most recent day-off.
Yesterday was my day-off. Anyway the day before I hang out with my friends until late and I slept at my friend's place so when I woke up it was already 2pm. So useless~ We ate sushi on delivery, it was one of my soccer friends so we went together to do shopping in a soccer shop. I bought training shoes, Messi's uniform and Bayern Munich's uniform and 4 types of hair ties. I want to wear the Bayern uniform to play today after the interview. Soccer is really funny! Some time ago I went to Saitama to watch a match, of course to watch them live feels so different! The national anthem sung by Akikawa Masafumi was great too. I felt moved by how much tenores are good. Eh? When will I sing the national anthem in a soccer match too? Well, that would be the best but it would be too moving and I'd end up crying all by myself without thinking to the atmosphere of the stadium (lol).
-Are you struck by women's glances?
It happens~ (lol). Probably I would try to scold her like: "Hey, that's too showy! Don't overdo!" but inside my heart I'd be like: "Good, good" (lol). I think I'm a "tsundere" only on the inside (lol).
[That's a more acceptable reaction XD Good, good!]
-Sorry for being so sudden, but please tell us a cute side of Ryo-chan.
When, even though he has the character we all know, sometimes he wants to be spoiled. Then his face when he's sleeping is perfectly cute. He sleeps so nicely, like a baby, and when he wakes up he mumbles. When he's well awake anyway he turns into a savannah's wild animal (lol). That gap of his is really cute even to me that I'm younger than him.
-When did you think: "I'm good!" or "I'm not good at all!" lately?
I feel that I'm good when my appearances are all perfect. Because I'm working hard on them. At the gym I'm trying to decrease the level of body fat, I want to build up the inner muscles, the white ones not the red ones. They are the muscles useful to play soccer, to increase the reactivity. Of course they have good effects also to singing and dancing. The muscles that makes you look big and that are usually considered cool are heavy and they get heavy also in your work. The percentage of fat in my body right now is around the 5%, my weight is 55kg. If I'll decrease it my strenght and immunity will suffer it, so I'll try to keep it. If I leave it alone though I'll keep decreasing, lately I'm eating the things I like only a little. People usually think: "If I'll get naked I'll look great!" but I'm: "If I'll get dissected I'll look great!" (lol).
[The last phrase really made me laugh XD Anyway it's so absurd that they are so attentive to their weight @_@ Or maybe I'm just jealous and want everybody to be fat LOL]
YAMAPI
-Tell us the schedule of one of your most recent day-off.
I woke up at 7am, I walked around my neighborhood for 1 hour, doing that I entered a cafè and had breakfast. When I came back home I watched a movie, I had lunch outside, went to the gym, had dinner and went to sleep at 11pm. It was a good day for a retired old man (lol). Sometimes I want to avoid this and I stay up until 5am and go to sleep when it's morning though. I really started to hate days like those.
-Are you struck by women's glances?
Not at all. Lately I'm struck the most when I'm having fun with other guys (lol). Some time ago I met my high school classmates. We tried to call some of the girls too but since in the end the ones who could come were too few we decided to go out only with guys. There were Hasejun and Koki too. I think that it was the first time that Koki came to meetings like that. He's always the nice, passionate guy of the past. I meet Hasejun every half a year, he never changes too. Between such nice and funny guys everybody could introduce themselves with no problems. My dream right now is to have a radio show with Hasejun (lol). Hasejun would answer to all the questions that people send us...something like that. Eh? What is my role? I'd read the question for him and enjoy live the face he does when answering (lol).
-Sorry for being so sudden, but please tell us a cute side of Massu.
Eh~ None! (lol). I mean, he's over the age in which you can be cute, he's cool now...shouldn't he be happy with it? When he was little he was cute. His cheeks were round and he was very friendly. Lately he became a real adult. Then Massu always gives the impression that he loves clean the most!
-When did you think: "I'm good!" or "I'm not good at all!" lately?
I thought I'm good when some time ago I went to do surfing without having slept at all but I lost to the sleepiness in the car going back home! A friend was driving and everybody in the car fell asleep, I was in the passenger seat next to him so I thought that I couldn't sleep... I mean. it's so lonely when everybody else is sleeping. Anyway when I drive I always say: "It's fine if you sleep". If they do I put on some music at a very low volume so that I can keep the attention up (lol). I think I'm not good when I procrastine more and more something that I must do. For example the laundry. They say: "Don't do tomorrow what you can do today", I think it's a saying done for me (lol).
KOYAMA
-Tell us the schedule of one of your most recent day-off.
(Watching his schedule) Uhm...I did nothing of interesting~ (lol). Lately I finished to work early, around 2pm, and I went to do shopping. I found the ideal rucksack that I've wanted for a lot of time. There was in black and leopard print, I wanted the black one. That is a shop that Massu likes as well, the shop assistent told me: "I guess you take the leopard one, right?" and I reacted: "Eh? Why!?". When she told me: "But you work in the show business, don't you?" I thought that maybe she was right, a showman should choose that one, so in the end I bought the leopard print one. I'm like this sometimes~ I'm too weak to people's opinions. Ah, but once I went to a very showy shop and a very showy assistent recommended me: "Koyama-san, this one is really popular now!". It was a black T-shirt with big characters on it, I didn't buy it though (lol).
-Are you struck by women's glances?
I do. I'm a very ordinary man, I certainly get struck by the things that usually get men struck (lol). Lately I'm kinda weak to girls wearing tracksuits. When I go to the gym everybody wear them, right? It makes me think to domestic clothes (lol). Like carelessly wearing a somewhat loose T-shirt, I like that defenseless appearances.
[Kei-chan you look like a stalker or one of those creepy guys that are in gyms sometimes X°D]
-Sorry for being so sudden, but please tell us a cute side of Tegoshi.
The fact that it's so easy to understand when he's in a good or bad mood (lol). Eh? A black Tegoshi? Well, you can see it in his eyes when he turns to you when you call him, they are different (lol). They make you want to say: "Oh, ok ok! I had nothing important to say!". Anyway he changes his mood really quickly, that's cute. I'm the opposite of Tegoshi, I don't show things on my face that much. When it seems I'm not thinking at all, many things are inside my head. If there were another member like me in the group it would be really troublesome! (lol).
-When did you think: "I'm good!" or "I'm not good at all!" lately?
I think I'm good when I'm training at the gym probably. Because I really do my best there. When I met some friends at the gym they told me: "Hey, did you get bigger?", I was really really happy. Infacts I increased my muscles and weight too. With my body is difficult to gain 5 kilos. That's why lately I'm eating a lot. Anyway I still have to work hard. I feel like one of those girls who lost enough weight but still think: "I need to get thinner!" (lol) !? If people will tell me "Come on, stop it!" I'll try to listen to them (lol).
Yeah, this was fast...it's my last free week I want to use it well :DD Enjoy!
