Good morning. This is Arashi's Ohno Satoshi.
Every Friday I respond to the messages received on this show.
First up is one from M-san.
"Satoshi-kun, good morning. I watched the Music Station that aired on 28th August. In M-Ste, Satoshi-kun had placed the mic down, but... Oh-chan, I saw that! That moment where you casually picked the mic back up from where you had absently left by your thigh."
Seriously?
"Do you remember how you'd left your mic there?"
Well, honestly... I'd forgotten. But looking back on it now, I don't have any memory of leaving it by my thigh. I definitely remember putting it on the side. So like, I think I previously mentioned it on radio? It might just naturally end up like that. I mean, I always stick it there every time. I've fixed that, though. Like I said on radio, I've fixed it. Though I forgot about it. Isn't that incredible? I said it, but my body just remembered of its own accord. Instinctively.
That's an incredible achievement. Right? Yeah. This time, it was the full choreography.
Was it the 2nd? In the 2nd half, we were in a line, kinda crouching down. Nino then me then Matsujun. Then at that time, Matsumoto was holding on to my waist. I was holding onto Nino's. Then we were crouching down, linked like that.
I'm kinda ticklish around the waist. So during the rehearsal, Matsumoto was tickling my waist. I couldn't stand it, so I was like, "No, for real, don't do it in the actual performance!" Mm. "Everyone's nervous at times like that, so you really can't do that."
"I won't," Matsumoto said. But Matsumoto still did it during the actual performance!
Man, all I had to move! I couldn't NOT move. Mm. But like, come to think of it after that, that kinda helped me relax. So maybe I should be grateful to Matsumoto! (laughs) Well, we all had fun.
It was a good thing, with that mic. Please look forward to it next time!
Next, from Suppin Satoko-chan.
"Ohno-kun, good morning. BLAST Miyagi will be my first concert, so I have a lot of things to ask. Please answer whatever you can."
Oh, sure!
"First: Will you appear in a helicopter?"
Mm, I see! For this... Unfortunately, I can't answer that!
"Next: Will you sing any new songs?"
Ah, there it is! New songs! You'd like that, right? But again, I can't say!
"Next: Will everyone have a solo?"
Solos, huh? For the solos... I wonder? It'll be the actual thing tomorrow, but I have no clue!
"Next: Ohno-kun, will you do any backflips?"
That I won't. I won't do any acrobatics.
Next, from Ayukochu-san.
"Good morning. Ohno-kun seems capable of catching tuna. That's what Kato Shigeaki-kun of NEWS said on radio [1]. How did it feel that time when you went fishing for mahi-mahi but ended up catching a tuna?"
Shige said that, huh? I caught a tuna. Ah, I hid that from Shige. I didn't say anything to him. Then a little while ago, when we were drinking together...
"I heard you caught a tuna, huh?"
"Eh? Who from?"
"From the ship's captain."
Yeah, he found out. Well, it couldn't be helped! I caught it!
Y'know, I went fishing for mahi-mahi. So I caught it with a rod for mahi-mahi. Isn't that amazing? Mahi-mahi rods aren't meant for tuna. They're a little thinner. I couldn't catch any mahi-mahi at all. So I went to the bow of the ship where two ocean currents met and when I cast my lure there... BAM!
It just appeared and my rod bent double. If it were a mahi-mahi, it'd have sprung up, but it kept going deeper and deeper.
The captain thought it might have been a shark. "A shark?" I thought. But I still wanted to see it, so I slowly spent about 15 minutes working on it. Then somehow it became visible. "It's kind of... shining?"
"A little more... A little more..."
"Isn't it kind of shiny?"
"It's not a shark."
"What is it?"
"It's a yellowfin tuna!
At that point onwards, I started being real careful about it. (laughs) Well, I managed to reel it up!
I've caught tuna with a seabass rod. I've caught tuna with a mahi-mahi rod. I've not caught tuna with a tuna rod, though. (laughs)
The 3rd time next year, I'll catch a tuna with a tuna rod! Until then, bear with me! (laughs)
And so with that, the weekly Friday messages have been answered. I'll be awaiting your mail. The address is arashi@fmyokohama.co.jp. I'll be waiting for you to send me lots of messages.
See you next week; this was Ohno Satoshi!
