Myojo 2015.06: Johnny's WEST crosstalk
Note that I am self-taught, and not a native Japanese speaker. There may be errors. Feel free to share, but please don’t claim this as your own translation. Corrections are welcome.
This crosstalk was in commemoration of their 1-year debut anniversary. The seven of them reflect on their past year, and attempt to plan something for their debut anniversary. (they were two separate crosstalks)
MYOJO highlighted some parts of the text, I've tried my best to match that. The other part of their pages in this issue (besides their usual corners) was a relationship chart, which has been translated by ltgmars here (it's really interesting, I recommend it).
Announcing the news that members chose!
Kiriyama: Recently, I was happy we could appear on "Hey! Hey! Hey!"
Kotaki: We met Downtown-san!!
Hamada: As they are also Kansai people, we know them, they're stars among us.
Shigeoka: They're already gods, gods!
Hamada: We were able to see the two of them up close.
Kamiyama: We were really nervous.
Nakama: Yup. It was unbelievable, we couldn't speak clearly.
Kiriyama: Junta-kun was tongue-tied.
Hamada: It's unusual to see him tongue-tied.
Shigeoka: During such an important time... Junta-kun is usually stable, in a pinch, he will be normal.
Nakama: Quiet. You are the one that's always normal (laughs)!
Hamada: Kami-chan was also nervous.
Kamiyama: Yup. Everything I had thought of completely flew out of my mind, I could only say my name and age.
Nakama: You even took the effort to dye your hair, you weren't teased about it...
Kotaki: I'm really jealous of Shige and Ryusei!
Kiriyama: Shige got a tsukkomi! (t/n: he got hit by Downtown's Hamada if you didn't see this show)
Hamada: That's true!
Shigeoka: When I got the tsukkomi I was really happy, it was fun!
Fujii: My one-shot gag was also rejected. Just, no matter what boke I did, it'd be a bit like... just so I can leave behind the achievement "I did a one-shot gag in front of Downtown-san" now (laughs).
Hamada: In Downtown-san's memory, they will properly remember you! But just as Ryusei? They won't remember that. Not by name, they'll remember you as the guy that did "tamago."
Nakama: Or by Bando Eiji-san (laughs). (t/n: the person he attempted to do an imitation of)
Kamiyama: I was also happy when we won the Japan Gold Disc Award "New (Japanese) Artist of the Year" category~.
Kiriyama: That award can only be won in the year of debut. We're really thankful.
Nakama: We each got a trophy.
Kotaki: But it still hasn't arrived at home! I'm still waiting, wondering, will it come now? What about now...
Kiriyama: It's because it seems they're going to carve our names on it~
Kotaki: It'll be the one and only trophy in the world☆
Nakama: The most impressive thing is definitely our debut and first concert.
Shigeoka: We came out with full force. Because during our junior period, we stretched earnestly.
Nakama: Our muscles are already stretched out too much.
Kiriyama: They've become bouncy.
Kamiyama: Seriously!!
Hamada: It was fun~
Fujii: It was amusing♪
Shigeoka: Yup. Once again I thought "I'm glad I can be with these members."
Nakama: While we were creating the concert, there weren't any difficult parts. We were very excited.
Shigeoka: It was a pretty good start for us.
Kiriyama: And we gained confidence.
Shigeoka: To everyone who came, we're really thankful!!
Kotaki: We'll meet again in the venue for (our first tour) Paripipo♡
Praise and criticism for produced concepts
(the pictures they'll be referring to)
Kiriyama: Speaking of MYOJO, we appeared in the pages of the 10,000-character long interviews.
Nakama: I read everyone's pages. The last smiles were good.
Shigeoka: True true.
Kotaki: When I was reading it, there were respective parts where I cried.
Nakama: Continuing on, Hamada-producer, please go ahead.
Hamada: Leave it to me. (While flipping through pages of MYOJO from the past year) Well, up until now there were a lot of photoshoots of us seven...
Nakama: What concept has Hamada-producer selected as impressive!?
Hamada: Ta-da! This issue (2014.09)!!
Kotaki: When the members became the producers and planned the pages for each other.
Nakama: Ryusei, in the middle of the cold weather, you went to the beach?
Fujii: Right right. I have a serious grudge against Hama-chan (the person who produced it).
Nakama: You have such a nice smile in this photo~
Hamada: Kami-chan, after wearing this blond wig, dyed his hair blond!
Kamiyama: Yup. When I put it on I thought "I suit blond hair," and then decided to dye it!
Shigeoka: Yes yes! The person who produced Kami-chan was me. It is not an exaggeration to say that I changed his path!
Kotaki: Kami-chan's merits were brought out.
Kamiyama: Ahahaha. Thank you very much.
Nakama: From Shigeoka-producer's prospective, what do you think of Kami-chan's current hairstyle?
Shigeoka: Completely no good!!
Kamiyama: Why! My fighting spirit has been turned on. I think it's fashionable!
Everyone: Ahahahaha.
Fujii: The person with the biggest impact in their photo is Nozomu~
Kotaki: That's true. It's Yankee-like.
Fujii: I was the producer. I created a good impact☆ Having him sit on the ladybug (in the playground) was a wonderful idea wasn't it?
Kotaki: That was the cameraman's idea.
Fujii: Ah~ I've been revealed (laughs).
Kotaki: Hama-chan had a bouquet.
Kamiyama: The theme he did was "heartbreak."
Kiriyama: Hama-chan, you did it wrong. You'd want to hold the bouquet behind your back and show the profile of your face. Also the photo's colour isn't monochrome. Hama-chan, trying to surpass what I asked for, failed. It's too decided!!
Hamada: E-even if you tell me that now...
Kamiyama: If it was rainy it would have been good. Why did you do it in sunny weather?
Hamada: I can do it in any weather!
Shigeoka: The huuuge time difference is bad!
Everyone: Ahahahaha!
Paling at doing chivalrous rock-paper-scissors on the debut date!?
Nakama: This year's February 5th (the day they announced all 7 of them would be debuting to the fans last year), what did we do~. I don't remember anything.
Kotaki: We probably had the day off.
Hamada: At that time I had a lot of days off, my friends even told me, "today is February 5th huh." I wasn't aware at all.
Shigeoka: The 7 of us didn't even celebrate on that day huh.
Kiriyama: Monchi (Kami-chan) and I had practice for "Blood Brothers."
Kamiyama: Oh yeah. And then, all of the co-stars said "congratulations!"
Fujii: That's nice~
Kiriyama: But for us, the debut date (April 23) feels more like a anniversary after all.
Nakama: This year's April 23, I want to do something with everyone.
Kiriyama: Then let's go eat yakiniku!
Fujii: During the day, we'll probably have concert rehearsal.
Kiriyama: Just doing it at night is good, let's go.
Nakama: Okay.
Kotaki: And then like usual, I will look for the place to make the reservation.
Kiriyama: You don't usually do that (laughs).
Kotaki: The person that pays, Junta! Thank you for treating♪
Nakama: No no no... we can celebrate using the yakiniku tickets that the staff gave us to celebrate our debut that we haven't used yet.
Fujii: Hasn't it ended after the expiration date?
Nakama: I think there normally isn't an expiration date...
Hamada: Because we haven't used them in a year, it makes me worried...
Kiriyama: If there is an expiration date, let's go at that time.
Kotaki: Junta will pay it all!
Nakama: Why! Let's do chivalrous spirit rock-paper-scissors (a system where the person who wins pays) for the first time in a long time!
Kamiyama: Uwa, that, I hate it. Impossible, impossible.
Shigeoka: No good, no good!
Nakama: We haven't done it in a long time, it'll be good.
Shigeoka: Everyone...have you all forgotten? Once we decide who pays for daily meals using chivalrous spirit rock-paper-scissors, Kami-chan will not eat with us, he'll go to eat at a beef bowl chain store by himself!
Kamiyama: That's right. If really decide to choose with chivalrous spirit rock-paper-scissors, I won't go anymore. You heard what he just said~
Kiriyama: But it's the debut date after all, let's go with everyone!
Kotaki: Yup. Kami-chan, let's go! Hama-chan and Shige too.
Kamiyama: O-okay.
Shigeoka: Of course!
Kotaki: Akito-kun and Ryusei as well.
Kiriyama: Definitely.
Fujii: Yeah.
Kotaki: Like this, it seems all of the members can celebrate the debut anniversary~♪
Nakama: Hey, invite me too (whacks Kotaki's head)!
Everyone: Gyahahaha!
Nakama: Why was I removed when I was the first to respond to Akito's initial "let's go."
Kiriyama: Ahaha. He was definitely going to skip your name, I realized it when he called my name.
Nakama: Honestly, I was also expecting this.
Hamada: Nonchalantly, I also wasn't invited... I'm sad.
Fujii: No, you were invited.
Kamiyama: Hama-chan's name was also called.
Hamada: Eh, no way!?
Kotaki: Yup. I invited you.
Hamada: Really? I completely didn't notice!
Shigeoka: Because you're always the one not invited as a joke, I wonder if you just have auditory hallucinations towards your name (laughs).
