[BGM 'PIKA☆NCHI']
Good morning. This is Arashi's Ohno Satoshi.
Every Friday I respond to the messages received on this show.
First up is one from Tomokame-san.
"Oh-chan, good morning. Arashi's album will be going on sale. What's its title? Also, please tell us why you chose that title."
I see. That's right, it's going on sale. It's called 'THE DIGITALIAN'. It'll be released on 22nd October. Yeah.
Well, this year, we'll have the chance to go on an album tour again. Well, for 'THE DIGITALIAN', I can't give you the details yet, but Sho-kun was the one who came up with that suggestion.
Generally, Sho-kun's stuff tends to become the album titles quite often. Mm. Everyone just agrees, so it happens. Mm. Like the 5 of us are like, "Ah, that works, right?"
But well, I'll talk about various aspects of it gradually, so please look forward to it!
Next, from 'Naruchi's Mama'-san.
"Ohno-kun, good morning. You're a great help to me every morning as my daughters will wake up without oversleeping. On that note, the other day I went with my Ohno-loving daughters (aged 9 and 6) and their Papa to watch 'Pikanchi'. It's been a while since we took an Odakyū line train bound for Shinjuku. Along the way, since we had boarded the express train, I said, "We'll be getting off at Ōno." At which, my 6-year-old daughter went, "Ohno-kun?" "No, Sagami-Ōno," I said. "Satoshi Ohno??" Their heads must have been full of Arashi!"
Ahh, your daughter's funny! But I'm flattered. I'm flattered about that sort of thing.
Well, Ōno... Oh yeah, Sagami-Ōno. I know it from way back when I used to take the train. When you're on the train, they have those things above that stop the train? Where you pull them, right? So I was always staring at the Sagami-Ōno above that.
"Ah, it's Ōno. I'd like to go there someday." (laughs) I still haven't been there.
There are surprisingly quite a lot of 'Ōno's. Yeah. So like, Nino... The other day he was looking up how many people had the same name and gender. And for me, there were quite a few, about 10 people? Ah, Matsujun had a lot. And Nino had about 2 people. Then when he searched for Aiba-chan there were zero! (laughs)
So we were like, so he himself didn't even come up in the results? That's what we talked about. That was funny.
Right, next, from 'I love Ohno-kun's cheeks'-san.
"Ohno-kun, good morning. This is random, but I'd like to feel some feels! In the same way Ohno-kun's solos do, please wrap it up with some sweet words!"
What would you like? What shall I say?
I'll wrap it all up... and give it all to you.
Sorry, my voice just changed there. That just happens when I do that. Yeah. When I say it. With that echo and all.
Right, next, from Urara-san.
"Satoshi-kun, please listen. I like sticking my fingers up my boyfriend's nostrils. Somehow that just calms me down. My boyfriend's always smiling away, so I don't think he hates it. But when I tell my friends, they get super turned off. Satoshi-kun, is it really that weird?"
First off, I want to know how that started. Like when and how did that happen? And does it not work with your own nostrils? Doesn't it feel kinda gross? Doesn't it?
And then I think you should ask your boyfriend again, properly. Maybe he's just a really nice guy. (laughs) Like, how much will he let you get away with? (laughs) And like just constantly, what? You just stick your finger in his nostril the whole time?
I'd like to know when you decide to take it out. And then where do you do that? At home? Do you do it on dates and stuff? I'd like to know the details.
I do think it's weird. Mm. But I like that sort of thing. Mm. I think you should ask for your boyfriend's opinion and then write in again, Urara-san.
What started it? Where? When? And then sticking your finger up his nostril... how much of it? Can you please tell us the details? I'll be waiting.
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!
Ah, today there's Music Station! Look forward to it!
