Yamada Ryosuke x Chinen Yuri - TV Life 24 July 2020 (English Translation)
Yamada: There's someone I really need to mention before I mention us.
Chinen: Yuya, right? He's innocent (laughs).
Yamada: Right. But he looks like a badass. Look (#30). You're like a primary school kid getting tangled up with a yankee (laughs).
Chinen: I can see it (laughs). Around the beginning, Ryosuke's hair is long and I get the feeling he's trying his best to look cool. We all did, though.
Yamada: But my cheeks are still puffy. At the beginning, I had more weight than I do now. There was a time along the way when I went on a stoic diet and my face changed all at once.
Chinen: The Ryosuke from around #34 is the one I'm more familiar with now.
Yamada: Yeah, I haven't changed much from then. When I think about it, I feel that Chinen hasn't changed that dramatically.
Chinen: Maybe it isn't a dramatic change. I haven't thought about myself changing.
Yamada: Also, speaking of hairstyles, there was a time when all the members had long tufts of hair on their side. Didn't Chii also have it at one point?
Chinen: I did! I did!
Yamada: Chii had some incomprehensible hairstyle! Ah, in #16. He played around with the ends of his hair a bit too much, here (laughs).
Chinen: Both Daiki and I have been playing around with it (laughs). The fact that this is a normal shoot makes me wonder if this was a fad.
Yamada: I don't remember it, but I guess so? If you felt uncomfortable, you would've been like, "Hey, this isn't right..." before the shoot (laughs).
Chinen: There was a time when that kind of Ryosuke also had mysterious volume in his hair. That is #34.
Yamada: Oh, I can feel the volume at the top and playfulness in the ends (lol). Also, Chii's suddenly skinny in #105.
Chinen: That was when I was filming the drama "Sprout".
Yamada: Eh~ did you do it for the role?
Chinen: No. I didn't intentionally lose weight, it was a time when I wasn't eating much. I didn't have much of an appetite. So I remember after this drama, there was a stage play called "Johnny's World".
Yamada: I'm pretty sure Chii was skinny back then! It's true that one member hasn't changed, but still, if you line us up like this, Chii has properly grown up.
Chinen: Right. I have properly grown up (laughs).
Commitment to #400 of the series
Chinen: Since it's become a hot topic, maybe I should recreate the "incomprehensible haircut" from #16 that Ryosuke mentioned earlier and take a gravure picture with it (laughs).
Yamada: In 4 years from now, you'll be 31 years old. This haircut is pretty hard to pull off at 31!
Chinen: I'm celebrating the #400
Yamada: It's definitely awful! #400 will be surprisingly sooner than you think.
Chinen: That's fine. I'm starting to look forward to it.
Yamada: Well, I guess I'll just have to recreate the "my puffy cheek" period from the beginning.
Chinen: How?
Yamada: They'll be swollen from drinking the day before (laughs).
Chinen: You're an adult...
