Thank you for the translation. Yanie you are the best:D

This is very sad indeed T_T

But the good thing is everything is clear now and everyone include their fans like me can move on XD

I really believe that Goro-Moho will always be good friend.
Finally, I wish them all the best.

Oh please let him be lying! T_T

They're really good friends but never meet for any meals? Hmm... :P I hope it's a case of "more than friends, less than lovers" too.

What made me wonder... Goro never want to give comment about his relationship with Miho at all before, not even a word like saying "we're just friends". He was asked too, in Kouhaku 2008 regarding the breakup, but he didn't say a word and just left.

What's with this timing now? Why now? Why not right after the breakup?

Really made me wonder...

And different with Nakai who denied his rumor with Koda with a bored look, I like the fact that Goro denied his rumor with Kanno Miho with a smiling face, even saying "hontou ni ii otomodachi" =P What's with the "hontou ni" part? Why not just "ii tomodachi"? XD

I also wonder why he chose to comment about it now. And he says he doesn't go with meals and meet with her anymore now. Is it because they're too busy with drama filming and stage rehearsals? Will it resume once they're finished? :P

I just saw the presscon news on TBS! He was really calm while answering questions, and when he said he was free, he laughed a bit. I'll upload the clip soon.

And I feel kinda annoyed that the media is mainly focusing on this rather than Zou. It was like this with the Triangle presscon, they focused on his breakup instead of the drama.

Is it because they're too busy with drama filming and stage rehearsals? Will it resume once they're finished? :P

Ahaha... that's what I want to think too! He did keep saying "NOW" didn't he? lol.

But I really love the way he answered these questions nonchalantly, esp. at the end, "I'm free now. I will let you know again if there's anything, but please don't forget to come and watch the stageplay, ne~" ... haha, that's so cute of him, for not forgetting to give that message at the end.

Upload, yoroshiku onegaishimaaasu!*bows*

=(.........just like everybody said before, they're both really busy right now so maybe they're just taking a break and aren't saying they're dating because they really haven't met up in a while. If we think on the positive side, this is like one step towards being more open about their relationship by Goro saying such a clear answer and actually mentioning Miho.

I can't imagine Goro with anyone else though. I mean, they've been dating on/off for 9+ years! But then again, didn't Kimura date his girlfriend for several years before breaking up and then marrying Kudo? please don't let that be a trend in smap.

[yanie02]

Yeah... Kimura-Kaorin was also exactly 9 years before they broke up

God! My sweetheart Goro is so cute... so gentle ...
I LOVE GORO ^^

Thank you soooo much for uploading the clip.

Addition from today's article.

As Goro kept saying "now", the reporter asked, "Now? So you had been seeing her before (after the breakup)?". With bitter laugh, Goro answered, "That would be a slight different meaning, so it's hard for me to say,".

According to the article, based on everything he said on this day, seem like he had seen her again after the breakup, and they both still hasn't meet other people until now.

LOL. They are sooo having "more than friends, less than lovers" relationship right now XD

[dangel]

The second article raised my hopes but the third one knocked them down again with the implication of Goro finding a new marriage partner. :P But still I am clinging to the "more than friends, less than lovers" theory. XD

[yanie02]

with the implication of Goro finding a new marriage partner.

That was just the article writer's assumption. But I've also translated what he exactly said, right? Does it sound like he meant finding a new partner to you? XD

In the news clips you just uploaded, I found out that before he said "mata ii hanashi" he said "maa, demo...".

After all the denies, "no, we don't go anymore", "no we don't meet anymore" and then he closed it with "But... I hope there's a good news I can tell mina-san next time..."

He is obviously hoping for a reconciliation with Miho himself =P

[dangel]

I know, I just prefer not to hear that assumption at all from anybody. :P

But those subtle word phrasings you pointed out have raised my hopes again, so thank you. ^_^

I hope he is doing everything in his power to woo her back. XD
