Takanori's Adventures in Sanrio-Puroland
...aka Cute Overload, Nishikawa Takanori Edition!
So...Takanori spent a day at Sanrio Puroland. As anyone who watches his Twitter saw, he posted many pics. But there was also lots of funny conversations and some interesting info. And since I'm a clumsy idiot that needed something fun to do that would require absolutely no walking whatsoever...I decided to translate it all.
Note: This was all one day (and one timezone) so I didn't bother with the dates/times.
本日は『サンリオピューロランド20周年記念イベント』の記者会見です！何が巻き起こるやら... お楽しみに！((*´∀｀))ｳｷｬｷｬ
Today I have a press conference about the "Sanrio Puroland 20 Year Anniversary Event"! What's going to come of it... Look forward to it! ((*´∀｀))ｳｷｬｷｬ

kohsuke94: @TMR15 Huh, really. At the Inazuma Rock Fes. you organized, Kitty-chan sang it for everyone!!(^-^)/ "Koishi Chinatown", Amazing!!!!!
{Quick note, around this point he also started having a discussion with Kiyoharu about Shounen*** It has nothing to do with Puroland, so I'm skipping it. Just figured I'd mention it, in case anyone saw them Tweeting to each other and wondered about it.} TMR_STAFF:

I'm telling you.. I don't care how much you beg, NO means NO! Hurry and get out of there! (；￣Д￣）
{Technically speaking, "onedari" translates to "pestering", but Kuro-fandom has trained me to translate it as " beg" ^_~.}
来年2011年５月13日のサンリオピューロランド20周年＆T.M.Revolution15周年記念イベントに向けて、頑張りますので応援よろしくお願いします！ KITTY&TABO&turbo
Heading to next year's May 13th, 2011 Sanrio Puroland 20 Year Anniversary & T.M.Revolution 15 Year Anniversary Event, we're working really hard so we're hoping for your support! KITTY & TABO & turbo
{Note: Puroland opened on December 7, 1990, so the 20 year Anniversary was actually this day.}
And this was also Retweeted by TMR_STAFF 西川貴教がキティと会見、ピューロランドで豪華コラボ http://natalie.mu/music/news/41707
natalie_mu: Nishikawa Takanori was interviewed along with Kitty, in a splendorous collaboration at Puroland http://natalie.mu/music/news/41707 {<--Has more pictures!}
* If anyone's new-er to the fandom, it's become less common (at least that I've seen), but he does refer to him self as a fairy sometimes.
** It's a long story, involving other Tweets (that I have saved and intend to translate), but basically a discussion on Twitter last month lead to Takanori discovering that artist Nishimata Aoi is a huge fan of his (her personal website is even called "Love Saver") and eventually this lead to them discovering each other on Twitter and following each other (she also mentions in her Twitter profile that she's been a TMR fan for 15 years!). So I'm sure she was thrilled to find something else they have in common. LOL
*** In case anyone isn't up-to-date on abs news, there is going to be a Kuroyume Tribute album (Fuck The Border Line) released next February. Abs will be featured on it, doing a cover of Shounen, (the song he an Kiyoharu sung together at Inazuma). The deadline for this is probably why his was pushing so hard to get his recording done, even hough he had other things he needs to do. It also most likely explains the mystery abs recording he dragged himself into the studio to do, as well as his odd "I was in the studio recording but I can't tell you what yet" English Tweet from a while back.
Also, I have to say...apparently the fact that Kitty-chan already has a boyfriend doesn't mean as much to TABO-kun as it does to Turbo...(My crack icon/keywords are suddenly...still crack, really, but apparently probable now. o.o)
And, uh...in that last pic......where did the baby come from and why is it there?!?! O.o
So...Takanori spent a day at Sanrio Puroland. As anyone who watches his Twitter saw, he posted many pics. But there was also lots of funny conversations and some interesting info. And since I'm a clumsy idiot that needed something fun to do that would require absolutely no walking whatsoever...I decided to translate it all.
