He's asked to talk about their first concert, about Johnny's WEST, and what he thinks he can do for the group. I also added the Q&A from the end of the pamphlet.
It's probably become a concert where we'll show our current selves to be accepted.
With everyone jumping up and down with full force, it'll be nice if everyone could enjoy themselves with the people standing standing next to them.
Regarding the "1st Concert"
The configuration this time was thought of by Junta-kun and Kami-chan. From there, everyone gave different opinions, and the concert was decided by all 7 of us. Everyone probably felt responsibility towards the concert, because we gave opinions and everyone said a lot of things. Everyone could feel fighting spirit in their skin. Everyone was passionate. For this time's "Ippatsume", the word "festivities" just suits it perfectly, it makes you want to experience boisterous celebration.
Anyway, part of our confidence is from striking "the iron plate" with simple "straight ball" contents. And our just-debuted freshness... with that, right now we're only able to present parts of ourselves. We'll show our current selves to be accepted... it's probably become that kind of content. We'll be fired up, and everyone in the venue will be jumping up and down with full force. With that feeling, it won't be who's pulling whom. It'll be nice if everyone could enjoy themselves with the people standing standing next to them.
Regarding "Johnny's WEST"
To be honest, I think we're still in the middle of exploring. In terms of "if you're speaking of Johnny's WEST, their weapon is this!", the situation is that we're still searching for it. We haven't found it yet... but on the contrary, we're in a state where we can still change anything. The possibilities are unknown. For that reason, anyway, right now we're impatient and want to gain a lot of experience. And it would be good if someday we became a "national" group. I know the path is long, but we're a group of members with pretty deep characters. I'm saying this myself, but the possibilities are great (laughs). Even going slowly is okay, I want to advance steadily one step at a time!
What are you able to do for Johnny's WEST?
After debuting, the work I've been able to do has increased, but I'm not doing it just to do it, I'm going to improve the quality... I'm probably being properly aware of that. I can't think even a little bit about the words "status quo". I'm always going to aim for the top!
Next, I've started to be aware of the fact that all of the things I'm doing are coming back to the group. Therefore, of course I need to do work properly, and use courtesy, and not be late even a little bit... I want people to be able to say that I'm the kind of person who pays attention to those kinds of things.
Q&A
The direction of my comedy this year
Comedy that won't hurt anyone... while I say that, forgive me for immediately escaping to mess with Hama-chan and Junta (laughs)
The ____ power I want to learn this year
Perseverance. I think just having that would be cool.
The place I want to go to this year
I want to go to Finland to see the Northern Lights and go dogsledding! My mom went to go see it, and when I heard her talk about it, it made me want to go.
The member that you want to push forward this year
Kami-chan. He still has some parts that can be pulled out; they'll come out more and more. I want people to know what kind of person Kami-chan is!
Things/items/people that have the image of your member colour
Apples, my costumes (because I really wanted to wear purple, I'm currently secretly wearing Hama-chan's costume, I want to hurry and show Hama-chan), scratches (recently I have a lot), fire trucks (a fireman is a man among man!), ketchup (at first it's watery, when I'm making omelettes and it doesn't come out of the bottle well I get irritated).
If you were to compare Johnny's WEST to food
A barbecue. Meat, seafood, vegetables... anything's there, and it should be able to satisfy anyone!
