[Translation] Travis Japan Potato July 2012
As promised, here's Travis Japan interview from Potato July issue! Crosstalk from Myojo June issue should follow soon! =)
We asked them to answer questions based on the key word "survival"!
With unexpected reactions and thoughts, do the five of them really know what to do in a critical situation!?
Q1. What would you do if you were alone on earth?
Kaito Nakamura: I will use the remaining landscapes to play golf will all my strenghth! I have never played golf before but watching the movie "I am a legend" really made me want to try. So I will have fun alone, after that I will go to a grocery and eat food without having to ask for permission and then I'll go back playing golf again. (laugh)
Asahi Kajiyama: First of all, I will go to a game shop to play until I get tired of it. Then since I can cook well...(From Nakamura: "Liar!")...Ah, my secret has been found out. (laugh) So I will only drink water, go back to my home and stay there.
Aran Abe: To forget my loneliness, I will walk outside! Nobody will be there so I will have a lot of space for myself. Once I'll get used to it, I'd like to go to the seaside to do things like fishing.
Kaito Miyachika: I will spend 3 days not going far from my original position and then I think I will look for persons alive. First of all, I will go to a city where there might be other persons hiding.
Shizuya Yoshizawa: First of all, I will build a boat or I will take my plane license without having to ask for permission and I will go to look for persons alive in other countries. Since I can eat all I want in goceries, I think it will be pretty easy to survive.
Q2. What three items would you bring with you on an deserted island?
Kaito Nakamura: I would maybe say a lighter, a knife and water. I think that with these three items I may be able to live properly~ Even if it's three basic items. I hate getting water in my nose so it will be impossible for me to go fishing directly in the sea. I will mainly stay alive by picking some eadible plants or coconuts.
Asahi Kajiyama: Fire is an absolutely necessity so a lighter. I will also be in trouble if I don't have water right? And then, Miyachika. He has good ideas and once he has one, he starts to work on it right away so I could rely on him. Actually, Miyachika himself is already a complete tool. (laugh)
Aran Abe: First of all, fishing tools. I have never fished before but it sounds fun. I like taking bath so I will also take a bathtub. I take a ~30min bath everyday. And then...Maybe Nakamura Reia. There is a peaceful atmosphere when we are together and talking while fishing sounds good.
Kaito Miyachika: Love, hope and peace! No, I'm joking. (laugh) For a survival experience, I will take a knife, a lighter and (Iwahashi) Genki. With the knife, I will be able to cut trees and I'll use the lighter to cook. Then Genki...(From Iwahashi: "I'm good at building things so I'll build a boat for us to come back home!") That's great~! This is how Iwahashi Genki is!
Shizuya Yoshizawa: I'll need my cellpho...Ah, it's a deserted island so there won't be electricity. So I want a ligther that will last a lifetime. Then to be able to move, I'd like a mountain bike. I will feel lonely on a desert island so I will also take Abe-chan with me. We will enjoy our survival experience together saying "Wild, isn't it?" (laugh)
Q3. Who do you think is the member who would resist the best to a survival experience?
Kaito Nakamura: Probably the wild Kajiyama. For some reasons, he seems to have a nature side and it seems like he would be able to live anywhere. If it were me, I think I will die after 2 or 3 days...(bitter laugh)
Asahi Kajiyama: Me. There were many forests and the sea in my home town so I've already done things like living alone in the trees. When I was in elementary school, I built myself a secret place in the trees and I spent a whole day there. On the contrary, the one who wouldn't be able to stay alive for long is Nakamura Kaito. It's because he is someone who can't calm down when he is alone.
Aran Abe: Kajiyama. I often say it to him and one day, when we were in the dressing room before a concert, he was standing in front of the mirror and he said "I'm wild~" (laugh) I can't stand insects so I think I won't be good for a survival experience...
Kaito Miyachika: Kajiyama or me. It would be impossible for Aran. I feel like he will immediatly say that he wants to come back home. I'd like to survive as long as possible using my hands to build things but I'll maybe lose to Kajiyama.
Shizuya Yoshizawa: Nakamura Kaito. Everytime someone is eating something, he says "Give me some, give me some!" so I think he'd definitely be the last one. He has a mischievous side (? question mark in the original text) so he will probably manage to survive in one way or another.
Q4. Recent activities.
Kaito Nakamura: More than anything else, I'm doing my best at dance lessons. I listen carefully to the dance teacher advices and even if I'm complimented, I don't take it for granted.
Asahi Kajiyama: We will be in Playzone so lately, it's nothing but dance. For our next stage play, we will recruit people who helped us and saw us growing!
Aran Abe: During Hey! Say! JUMP concerts, I have felt once again how doing a concert is a lot of fun. I was the one helping (Nakajima) Yûto-kun when he had to change his clothes fast and I'm glad I didn't make any mistake. In my private time, I'd like to cut my hair!
Kaito Miyachika: Hey! Say! JUMP's concerts were a lot of fun! I was very happy to sing and dance Stompin' during the Junior corner with Yabu (Kôta) kun and (Yaotome) Hikaru-kun. I have also bought myself a watch recently. I was looking for a white watch since a long time!
Shizuya Yoshizawa: Lately I'm very often with the other members so I'm only thinking about our team, things we still don't have or about the future.
