Everything
This month, they've been divided into 3·3·4 conversations. The talk's theme is 「The side that the fans don't know about」. Because they're members who are familiar with each other, they'll definitely come up with one side after another, no matter what team they seem to have gotten very excited.
ryosuke yamada hikaru yaotome kei inoo talk
Saa, let's hear it right here, right now. Your showbiz life plan!
Yaotome Inoo-chan, sa, he's still hiding 80% of himself.
Yamada Even the fans definitely seem to have a lot of sides of him that they think "?" about.
Yaotome I mean, it seems like the fans are also thinking "Who?"···
Inoo Eh, even though they're fans (*laugh*)?
Yaotome Show your character more!
Inoo I'm still groping for that character right now (*laugh*)! I'm trying to do a lot!
Yaotome Even though you're a person who'll definitely make people laugh when you talk, you don't talk. It's a waste! How you're going to live in this world of showbiz, I really don't know! Show me the way you live! Saa, let's hear it right here, right now. Your showbiz life plan!
Yamada ···it turned into a deep conversation (*laugh*)
Inoo Naturally···to live in a big house~, to eat tasty food~, to get a kinda cute bride when I'm around 27 (years old)~···
Yamada That's a really typical dream (*laugh*)
Inoo (while looking pissed) I want to talk too. But since there's 10 people, I really don't know at what timing I can talk!
Yaotome Yamada, do your best!
Yamada It's really, really nice of you to say that, but at Osaka's MC (editorial note: This interview took place before Yokohoma Arena), since it's the land of laughter after all, I've never made them laugh (*laugh*)
Yabu, who is nearby But basically, since it's me and Hikaru talking, me and Hikaru will only mess up···it'd be like that.
Yaotome Stop having so little self-confidence (*laugh*). We've made them laugh a little, haven't we! Of course there was a lot of moments where we thought "not good" too.
Yamada But Hikaru-kun doing his best, even in that kind of situation, is amazing.
Yaotome Staff-san was saying this a while ago, but all of JUMP's normal talk is funny. Actually, I think so too ne. So not being able to show that is vexing naa.
Inoo Un, it's a waste, ne.
Yaotome You're the one who's a waste!
Inoo (with his voice changed) Annoying!
Yamada It might be better if Inoo-kun brings a character like that angry one to the surface (*laugh*)
Yaotome Right? It's definitely funny (*laugh*)
Inoo I get it, let's talk! Without thinking of anything, let's talk more cheerfully! Saa, let's talk quickly!
Yamada Looks like he kinda broke (*laugh*)
U-n, that's right ne, wouldn't it be good to show off your stomach?
Inoo Yamada wants to be a comedian character, right. It's "aiming for Hikaru", right?
Yamada Aa~, that was right ne~
Yaotome "was"? It's already past tense (*laugh*)?
Yamada That's because I'm no match for Hikaru-kun. So I'll aim for 2nd place right behind Hikaru-kun (*laugh*). Then, when Hikaru-kun's style is bad, if I could help···
Yaotome Aa, but it might be great if that kind of person really existed!
Yamada But right now, it's still impossible for me. I wonder who could do this kind of role now···Arioka-kun?
Yaotome Dai-chan does his best, but he'll mess up big time if he's surprised (*laugh*). That's a risky bet (*laugh*)
Yamada What abot Takaki-kun?
Yaotome Takaki, nee, since he's going for more of a cool image, he wouldn't be able to do comedy with a 'bang!' impact······
Inoo (clearly) Fu-------
Yaotome ·········Eh?
Yamada A very properly done sigh (*laugh*)
Inoo Sorry sorry, I was feeling a little lethargic just now (*laugh*)
Yaotome As one would expect, Inoo-chan. Really, you're random (*laugh*)
Inoo That's not true! You said something or other, for the last part, you've depended on Ryutaro, right?
Yaotome That's right ne~, since that guy has made miracles happen ne (*laugh*)
Inoo He's certainly made miracles happen a lot of times!
Yaotome But since Yamada announced his candidacy, from now on Yama-chan has to give it all he's got.
Yamada Iya~, that might be a little severe.
Yaotome It's because I'm counting on you (*laugh*). Jaa, I wonder what Yama-chan's "this should be shown more" side is?
Inoo U-n, that's right ne, wouldn't it be good to show off your stomach?
Yamada Wait a second! What is this (*laugh*)
······right now, I'm really moved! Hikaru-kun's unknown side is···
Yaotome Because Inoo-chan is random. It's better to not listen to what he's saying (*laugh*). Because, when we're going and coming from work and I'm talking with Inoo-chan, 90% of what he says are lies (*laugh*)
Inoo Really, we're having a superficial conversation (*laugh*). We haven't said anything from the heart.
Yamada We realize that (*laugh*). Is it that bad?
Inoo But when I'm talking with Yama-chan, I'm not that random.
Yamada Besides my stomach, isn't there any other side I should show?
Yaotome I think Yama-chan's tsukkomi is good ne. Wouldn't it be good if you showed that side more?
Yamada ······right now, I'm really moved! Hikaru-kun's unknown side is···
Inoo There isn't anything, is there?
Yaotome Un, I also think so. I show everything (*laugh*)
Inoo Jaa, sa, next time you should try shifting to a sexy type or something like that (*laugh*)
Yamada I want to see that!
Yaotome Eh, doing things like running my hand over my lips while dancing? That's definitely impossible for me! I'd be really embarrassed, even if I did it, it wouldn't suit me at all!
Inoo You don't have any hidden side, so we have to make you a new side (*laugh*). Anyway, from now on, we might have a slightly sexier than before Hikaru (*laugh*)
Yaotome When Inoo-chan talks a whole lot during MC, that's when I'll think about it too (*laugh*)
yuto nakajima ryutaro morimoto kota yabu talk
He'll say "Aa, it was realllly fun ne···" with a serious face······yeah right (*laugh*)!
Nakajima Yabu-kun's unknown side, huh···. It's probably something everyone already knows, but he's a realllly dependable person ne. Especially during concert MCs and such.
Yabu Oh, are you going for the complimenting pattern (*laugh*)
Nakajima It's true. Yabu-kun will pull it along, while Hikaru-kun says something funny here and there···this pattern is reassuring, naa. The truth is we'd like to go along very much, but somehow it feels far away naa.
Morimoto Right right. We don't know where it'd be good to join in.
Yabu I'd be thankful if you really did go along very much. Actually, Nii-chan has a lot to say (*laugh*)
Nakajima Is there a specific request?
Yabu Ryutaro's tension is too low (*laugh*)
Nakajima I know! I can imitate it! Like if Yabu-kun asks "Ryutarou, how was the concert?", he'll say "Aa, it was realllly fun ne···" with a serious face······yeah right (*laugh*)!
Morimoto But I really think it was fun from the bottom of my heart~. My face stiffens from the nervousness.
Yabu I have one more thing! Ryutaro is alwaaaays watching comedy DVDs, isn't he. Since you're studying so thoroughly, bring that sense of humour to the surface (*laugh*)
Nakajima Ah, but it seems like he really is doing his best studying. Once I thought I'd watch with him normally. But he told me "I'm studying".
Yabu Really. Jaa, that's good. Ja, do you know who the person Ryutaro's aiming to be like is?
Nakajima I don't know. Who is it?
Morimoto ······Heipo-san (a program director).
(Note: Heipo-san is Saitou Toshihide, a director. He works with Downtown in Downtown no Gaki no Tsukai ya Aranende!! as an assistant director and a semi-regular cast member.)
Nakajima Why is it him!? Wouldn't it be someone like Downtown-san (*laugh*)!?
Yabu Right? If you're watching that many comedy dramas, normally you'd admire someone like pro comedians Downtown-san, wouldn't you? But the other day, when I heard him say "Yoshi, next time I'll try having a reaction like Heipo-san's", I was surprised (*laugh*)
Morimoto Iya, I'm pretty unskilled, so I thought I'd dare to try aiming at a character like Heipo-san's (*laugh*)
Nakajima Also, even though Ryutaro says "it's tasty" at some point, I don't get its' worth anymore (*laugh*) When everyone is teasing him, he seriously hates it. Maa, I'm like that too, so I kinda understand his feelings, but I think when you're older, you look at kids like Ryutaro and think "it's a waste".
Yabu I think so too. If I were to say something to KAT-TUN's members, like something like "big-nosed rascal" to Nakamaru-kun, it'd be bad (*laugh*)
Morimoto Uwa~, it's tough! But I'll do my best.
Me and Yuuto, I think we have similar characters ne
Yabu Ja, next is Yuto. Yuto···I like him.
Nakajima ···I like Yabu-kun too.
Morimoto Wait a seeec, what is this (*laugh*)!
Yabu Get off the love wagon with me.
Nakajima I'll take the ticket!
(Note: Yabu's love wagon and Yuto's ticket are both references to the show Ainori.)
Morimoto I said that's enough!
Yabu Me and Yuuto, I think we have similar characters ne.
Morimoto A, I think so too! They're similar.
Yabu Staff-san also pointed out "both of your tsukkomi is tough" (*laugh*). By the way, one more person in JUMP whose tsukkomi is tough is Chinen, ne (*laugh*)
Nakajima There are times when even I think "Ah, I might've been too tough now". A reflection!
Morimoto Is that right. But I don't feel like you 3 are that harsh naa.
Yabu It's because Ryutaro's used to our tsukkomi (*laugh*). Our fans still haven't had that long a history with us, so don't you think they'll be surprised?
Morimoto But if the tsukkomi is lenient, wouldn't that make a soft feeling?
Nakajima That's true too ne. Maa, it'd be good if both the members and the fans get used to the atmosphere, so that we can show our normal personalities ne. If we were saying colors, I'd be black or white. It'd suck to be grey.
Yabu Oh, you just said something cool ne. But me, I'd become an always incomplete grey (*laugh*)
Morimoto I'm green!
Nakajima Why is green appearing here. Because it's that easy on the eyes (*laugh*)!
Yabu-kun's useless side, I haven't seen it. He's always perfect.
Yabu Yuto doesn't shift ne. Whether it's now or before, he hasn't changed at all. His sense of justice is strong···. I shift a lot depending on the day ne.
Nakajima I think I get it! Sometimes there are days I think "A, today it's black Yabu-kun" (*laugh*)
Morimoto He's black especially on days we have to get up early ne.
Yabu It's inevitable in the morning (*laugh*). When I'm on the train, I can't sit still.
Nakajima You're not an elementary school student (*laugh*). Sometimes they're there in class, ne, a kid who can't sit still.
Yabu Ah, that's me, that's me.
Morimoto Ahahaha, really!?
Yabu Really really. Even when I'm riding the train or something, I'll squirm a lot(*laugh*)
Morimoto It's Yabu-kun's unknown side (*laugh*)
Nakajima Yabu-kun, when he's on stage, he'll do funny stuff when those around him have trouble seeing ne (*laugh*). You should show that side more.
Yabu I like doing things secretly (*laugh*). Only those who notice it will know···that kind of thing ne. Does Ryutaro have any requests for me? It's not far from reach, so say it! Because Yabu-kun has a lot of useless parts (*laugh*)
Morimoto Eh~, Yabu-kun's useless side, I haven't seen it. He's always perfect.
Yabu (slides very low down in the seat) Eh~, even though I'm like this (*laugh*)?
Nakajima Because! Yabu-kun, you should show that kind of side more and more! In concerts, you have a very serious image.
Morimoto I think so too! A serious person suddenly breaking would be funny (*laugh*)
Yabu Wouldn't it ne~. I get it, but it's sudden ne. If I were really to do that, I probably wouldn't be able to stop (*laugh*). But maa, it'd be great if everyone would show their prime sides more and more (*laugh*)
yuuri chinen keito okamoto yuya takaki daiki arioka talk
Everyone, lately, thanks to the influence of the drama, it seems Takaki has been aiming for the cool direction
Chinen Today's talk has a "the side that the fans don't know about" theme.
Takaki (in a cool way) Is that so···
Arioka What is that, that useless cool reaction (*laugh*). It's a magazine, so it won't be shown. A, everyone, lately, thanks to the influence of the drama, it seems Takaki has been aiming for the cool direction. But in reality, he isn't that kind of person at all (*laugh*)
Okamoto Though in concert MCs too, he definitely doesn't talk that much.
Arioka Right, actually, his voice is small.
Okamoto But, isn't a cool character essential for a group?
Arioka Who's JUMP's cool character?
Chinen (silently raises his hand)
Everyone else Oi!
Arioka It isn't like that! And how can you have a cool character with that kind of smile!
Chinen A, am I mistaken (*laugh*)? It's not me···excuse me~
Takaki Ano sa, it's not that I've become a cool character. It's just that I've become an adult!
Chinen Ehh, but from my point of view, I can't picture that kind of Takaki-kun at all (*laugh*)
Takaki But lately no matter where I go, staff-san have been seriously telling me "you've become an adult ne".
Okamoto I think Takaki-kun is an adult.
Takaki Thank you. The only one who says that is Okamoto, though.
Okamoto But since you usually talk a lot, in concerts and such, I think it'd be better to talk more and more.
Chinen Hai, the "that makes me feel sick" from Keito has appeared!
Takaki Oi! He didn't say anything like that (*laugh*)! Anyway, why have you been normally sitting on my lap since a while ago!
Arioka It's a scene we usually see, this scene.
Chinen When I'm sitting on Yuuyan's lap, I somehow feel calm.
Your gal sense is high, I wonder in what kind of situation would you say that (*laugh*)
Arioka Ja, there's people whose laps you can't calm down in (*laugh*). Who are they?
Chinen U~n···Yuto-kun and Hikaru-kun, I somehow can't calm down with them. Because I can't be a spoiled character with Yuto-kun. Hora, isn't Yuto-kun more of a spoiled kid too? When I'm sitting on Hikaru-kun's lap, he'll probably say something like "you're a bother, idiot" and tsukkomi me (*laugh*)
Okamoto Have you sitten on Ryutaro's lap too?
Chinen Of course not.
Takaki Ja, should I try sitting on Ryutaro's lap later.
Arioka It'll just seem like bullying (*laugh*)
Takaki (while changing his voice) "St~op~ it~ Really!" He'd probably say that (*laugh*)
Arioka That's for sure. I wonder what Keito's unknown side is. Keito's diligent ne. He'll do stuff like do his school homework until 3 a.m.
Okamoto Of course, since I have work, I don't have much time at all···
Chinen He's smarter than Dai-chan, definitely.
Arioka It's vexing, but I can't deny that (*laugh*). I want to help him with his homework, but that's impossible.
Okamoto It's not really that I'm smart···rather, it's that I'm a hard worker?
Chinen I think so too. You do your best in dance practice too ne.
Okamoto Out of 10, with 1 being the level I was at when I first joined, what's my level now?
Takaki (in a flash) 1.5.
Okamoto ······like I thought.
Takaki It's a lie, a lie a lie (*laugh*)! Keito's at the same level as me.
Chinen But if you're satisfied with that, you'll end up not aiming for the top. You should keep him grounded.
Takaki Since Keito's movement is big, he stands out when watching DVDs. That's good.
Arioka Right right. Body wave···he has technique, moving his body like a wave, he's normally very good so I was surprised. Thinking "Eh, who is that···Keito!?" and rewinding it 3 times (*laugh*)
(Note: Daiki said 'body wave' in English.)
Okamoto Thank you very much. I have to practice more and more.
Chinen Lately, you've been practicing the guitar too ne.
Arioka Right right. Eh, does your dad (= Okamoto Kenichi) teach you?
Okamoto Uun. So I'm practicing by myself.
Takaki You're making an effort with that too. Do your best!
[Editorial note: Here, Yabu enters and comments 「Keito has a really high sense of humour」]
Okamoto Eh?·········(with a serious face) Gal sense?
Everyone else Ahahahaha!
Takaki Your gal sense is high, I wonder in what kind of situation would you say that (*laugh*)
Arioka That kind of spontaneous side is also one of Keito's good sides. Ja, next is Chinen. It doesn't normally appear in MC, but Chinen's sense of humour is also high.
I really haven't seen a smile that shines like Chinen-kun's ne
Takaki Right. Also, he's pretty outspoken (*laugh*)
Arioka Nobody in the world would think that he'd say gags or criticism with those looks. So at concerts whenever he says something, he'll always hit the bull's eye. But if it was me, it'd be fine if I hit it just twice (*laugh*)
Chinen But, I don't really show that part a lot naa. Probably, if it was just ~7's 5 members, I think I'd be able to talk more···
Takaki Aa, that might be a good idea. If we separate ~7 and ~BEST, different faces might appear. If it was ~7, I wonder who would keep the talk going.
Chinen Wouldn't that be Yuto-kun? I think he fits the same position as Yabu-kun. Then, the Hikaru-kun character is···
Arioka If I said Yamada, wouldn't he be overjoyed (*laugh*)? Because that guy calls Hikaru 『master』 (*laugh*)
Chinen Does he? But since we're talking about the comedian side, I think of Ryutaro too···
Okamoto Aa, I know! Ryutaro occasionally makes us laugh really hard ne.
Arioka Chinen also has a good sense (of humour), so you should show that side more and more. With that shining smile, there's no way he could be poisonous like that···that kind of character (*laugh*)
Takaki He's JUMP's Nishikido-kun (*laugh*)
Chinen That'd be good! But, I want to be a person like Arashi's Ohno-kun.
Arioka Jaa, something that feels like a mix of Nishikido-kun and Ohno-kun···that' be hard, that character (*laugh*)
Okamoto I really haven't seen a smile that shines like Chinen-kun's ne. Even in magazine photoshoots too, I think it's amazing.
Chinen But it's not like I'm consciously faking it ne. Ja, last is Dai-chan!
It appeared! The slightly stiff smile!
Okamoto Arioka-kun's smile, it's also amazing (*laugh*)
Chinen It appeared! The slightly stiff smile!
Okamoto I think you should smile more like you usually do.
Arioka Oi, you're shooting your mouths off··· but that's definitely true (*laugh*). During magazine photoshoots, I really do stiffen.
Takaki We can all imitate it.
Chinen I'm good at it! Hora! (He smiles brightly, but his face wavers bit by bit) Here, when he sways bit by bit is the point ne!
Arioka If I honestly laugh, it's a face that can't be published in magazines.
Okamoto It's not like that at all. I think it's a really nice smile.
Arioka I get it, then I'll try to do my best from now on. ···then, is that the only side the fans don't know about me (*laugh*)? Only that my face wavers bit by bit when I laugh (*laugh*)?
Chinen There is! "The side where he competes with Ryutaro".
Takaki Ah~, that's right, that's right!
Chinen The other day, Dai-chan was insistently picking a fight with Ryutaro, at the end Ryutaro said "Shut up! It's none of your business!" ne (*laugh*)
Arioka ···mou, you don't have to say anything (*laugh*). Keito definitely wouldn't have that kind of useless fight.
Okamoto Un, I wouldn't.
Takaki Keito's an adult~
Arioka I think JUMP's cool character is Keito. There's no chance it's Takaki. Before 『Gokusen』 started, when he was going to the scenario reading, he asked me "Nee, do you think it's okay with the script?" ne. Jaa, what are you going to be reading from (*laugh*)
Takaki E~tttto······looks like the time is up, so why don't we finish up now (*laugh*)
