Hehe, yesterday I went to go sing karaoke with some friends, I really wanted to sing an Arashi song...but they don't know Japanese, so I thought it would be unfair since we were all sharing the cost of the booth^^; Another time...:S

Kumiko: Use them. Sardines are a fairly high level of difficulty~! (writing)
Aiba: Fishy... (writing) Alright, let's do it.
Jun: I dunno...
Aiba: So, is it okay to do my best now?
Jun: Normally you're a little more interesting huh.
Aiba: Ah, sorry, really.
Jun: By the way Aiba-san, um, have you ever fileted a fish before? (writing)
Aiba: I haven't ne. And, on top of which, I still have no idea what I should make using these. (writing)
Kumiko: So the one using the squid is...
Aiba: Matsumoto-kun.
Kumiko: Ne, Matsumoto-kun.
3:29
{the announcer says it's kind of forced, but Matsumoto-kun is in charge of the squid.}
3:32
Jun: How do you deal with squid? (writing)
Kumiko: You fool! (writing)
Aiba: He's fool ne!
Kumiko: Don't you have any confidence? (writing)
Aiba: Ne!
Kumiko: You two.
Jun: No, no confidence~. As soon as I saw this I had no confidence~. (writing)
[writing: Fear for what lies ahead... Announcer: These two can't be relied on at all. But in reality there's
a reliabl;e secret weapon in this household!]
Kumiko: Um, the eldest daughter, Honoka-chan is fairly skilled...
Jun: At cooking?
Kumiko: It seems she has some skill at cooking. (writing)
Jun: Honoka-chan is 8 isn't she?
Aiba: You're learning how to cook? You're learning!
Kumiko: For example, for example ne, Honoka-chan ne, can you handle sardines? (writing) Sardines.
Jun: You can handle sardines?
Kumiko: You can handle them?
Jun: You can filet three sardines?
4:12
[writing: They've found a powerful helper! Announcer: This is lucky!]
Jun/Aiba: Tempura. Spaghetti.
Kumiko: Squid sauce.
Aiba: Squid ink!
[Announcer: After having Honoka-chan show them her recipe book they pick their menu]
Aiba: Should we draw our expected finished products?
Jun: We're going to draw our expectations of the finished pasta?
Aiba: We are.
Kumiko: Yes, just a minute~. Yes Matsumoto-kun. What about that is squid spaghetti? The only thing that looks
like is hair, hair. (writing)
Jun: No no, I mean, isn't this how it is? When you draw squid spaghetti, isn't this what-
[writing: Hair?]
Kumiko: No.
4:46
{the announcer says Matsumoto-kun is trying out squid ink spaghetti, meanwhile Aiba-kun is...}
Kumiko: What is that?
Aiba: Eh? This is meuniere. Sardine.
Kumiko: With the sardine...
Aiba: Cheese grilled. Cheese-grilled sardines.
Kumiko: Doesn't that kind of look like leaves? (writing)
Aiba: I'm telling you it's not a leaf! It's this, this is what I'm making today.
5:09
{the announcer says Aiba is trying out cheese-grilled sardine, work hard both of you!}
5:18
Aiba: So, then, I'm beginning.
Kumiko: Yes.
Aiba: So here...
Kumiko: Ah, there? You don't have to do it that far! Ah, wrong, wrong! (writing)
Aiba: Geez, shut up~! (writing) You take the bones off like this-
[writing: Now you've done it...]
Kumiko: Where did the meat go?
Aiba: This is meat, there was meat here. There's meat.
[Announcer: At this terrible turn of events Mori-san...]
Kumiko: Honoka-chan, Honoka-chan. Could you come here for a sec?
5:56
{the announcer says this means it's time for the powerful helper, Honoka-chef's appearance.}
6:04
Aiba: This here~...how is it?
Kumiko: It's no good ne~.
Aiba: No good? So then, is it okay if you show me a sample on one of them? (writing) Okay?
Kumiko: Like that the cleaning has begun ne.
Aiba: I see ne.
Kumiko: This is even turning into a lesson for some adults ne~!
[writing: Honoka-chan turns it into a cooking class]
Aiba: So where do you go from? Ah, you start from there!
Kumiko: That's right ne~. That's where it is ne.
Aiba: you wash it!
Kumiko: You wash it!
Aiba: You both start and finish by wahsing the fish ne.
Kumiko: Yes.
[Announcer: At that time Matsumoto-kun is...]
Jun: So, what should we do? Aimi-chan, how old are you right now? Five? Five years old. Man~...what should you talk
about with a five-year-old~. (writing)
[Announcer: It's already been an hour since they met. However, the distance between him and Aimi-chan hasn't
narrowed at all.]
Jun: Aimi-chan won't talk to me.
[Announcer: Don't say that, keep trying.]
Jun: She'll run? She'll run, after all.
[writing: Dash]
Jun: I wonder what kind of escape it'll be. Let's draw pictures. Do you like drawing pictures? Aimi-chan, shall
we play shiritori? (writing; Japanese word game) Do you know shiritori? Then we can start with Aimi-chan.
[writing: Lip-synch?]
Jun: What, what did you say? What did you say, what did you say?
[writing: He tries sitting next to her but...]
Jun: And...and...even though I moved here...
[writing: Once again, dash]
Jun: She disappears. I'm done for. (writing)
[writing: Silence~]
Jun: She disappeared.
[Announcer: Aimi-chan won't give them a smile. Can the Arashi pair get along with her?]
Aiba: Honoka-chan, why don't you pass the baton now?
Kumiko: No, it's no good at this point.
Aiba; No good? It's just wham bam at this rate ne.
Jun: Um you see, Aimi-chan...
Aiba: She won't play?
Jun: She won't play with me at all ne. (writing)
Aiba: What about shiritori?
Jun: I said let's play shiritori, and she replied by lip-synching... (writing)
Aiba: You're really doing it, Honoka-chan you're really doing it~!
Kumiko: Ne.
Aiba: So Honoka-chan, shall we try going to the next lap? (writing)
Kumiko: Shape up you! (writing)
Aiba: Eh?
Kumiko: Do it yourself! This is your job! (writing)
Aiba: This is my job?
Kumiko: That's right!
[Announcer: This time, after she's done, Aiba-chan does some sardine fileting.]
Aiba: There it is~! All right! Right!
Kumiko: How is it? You got the meat?
[Announcer: Thanks to chef Honoka's skills, this time Aiba-kun is a big success! Next it's the making of the
batter.]
Aiba: Teacher, is this okay? (writing) It's okay. K, just a bit.
9:09
{the announcer says that since this time it's cheese-grilled they mix barley flour, powdered cheese, and water.}
9:15
Aiba: This is it right?
Kumiko: Yeah. Do it with that, be kind of gentle though. Gently.
Aiba: I'm doing it with a soft touch. (writing)
Kumiko: Ah, that's good, that's good!
[Announcer: And he gently, gently coats the sardines in batter.]
Kumiko: Skin-side down! Yes!
9:32
{the announcer says they put butter and oil in the frying pan and grill the sardines.}
9:35
Kumiko: Please flip it any second now.
Aiba: Alright, I'm flipping it~.
9:39
{the announcer says after it's browned a little you flip it over, add a little white wine, and steam it over
low heat.}
9:45
Kumiko: Isn't that great?!
Aiba: This is great!
Kumiko: Ah~, the skin the skin! That's pretty...
Aiba: Wrong, wrong, ah, it's wrong, it's wrong! Ah, that's right, that's right. That's it, that's it. Here I
go~.
Kumiko: Put that in the sauce, it will see it from above.
Aiba: The camera will? Eh?
Kumiko: Lid!
Aiba: Ah, lid, lid! Yes! You didn't tell me that would happen! That was a surprise~.
Kumiko: Hey~, just...
Aiba: Soin spin!
[writing: Hurry, ventilation!]
Aiba: Spin, this is dangerous, dangerous! This'll turn into a fire.
[Announcer: At that time, Aimi-chan suddenly decides to go outside. I wonder why? The worried Matsumoto-kun
goes after her.]
Jun: Aimi-chan!
Aimi: I don't want my picture taken (by the cameras)! (writing)
Jun: What did she say, what did she say?
[writing: 3rd failure today]
Jun: What did you say just now? What did she say?
Staff: She said she doesn't want her picture taken.
Jun: Taking pictures? We're not taking pictures.
Staff: They're cameras.
Jun: Eh?
Staff: They're cameras.
Jun: Ah~, cameras ne. Which is it ne? I guess it's me? (writing)
[Announcer: I see, so that's why she went out ne]
Jun: Ah~, I'm seriously screwed. (writing)
Aiba: So? I'm making the sauce~. So? Let's make the sauce. Ne.
Kumiko: It's good like that, that's good ne.
Aiba: It's okay like this, without doing anything?
Kumiko: No, that's fine! The flavor will come out!
Aiba: Ah, is that so?
Kumiko: It's fine like this, just put this in. You need some acidity ne. (writing)
Aiba: Acidity?
Kumiko: So what's acidic?
Aiba; Yogurt?
Kumiko: Ha~?
Aiba: Oh, look!
Kumiko: Ah, they have one. I told you, lemon. (writing)
Aiba: Lemon. 'The Television~!' (they always pose with lemons for that mag)
Kumiko: More or less one tablespoon (of lemon) would be good I guess. (writing) In this.
Aiba: A tablespoon, yes.
Kumiko: Yes.
Aiba: It's good already?
Kumiko: You put in too much! (writing)
Aiba; I put in too much?
Kumiko: Yes. That's enough for now. So please stir this~.
Aiba: Yes yes.
Kumiko: Mix it in.
Aiba: I'm mixing it~.
Kumiko: We put in lemon. It's kind of sauce-like ne?
Aiba: Just this?
Kumiko: Soy sauce, soy sauce.
Aiba: Soy sauce?
[Announcer: The last thing they add is soy sauce.]
Aiba: I'm the most nervous about this section, is it okay?
Kumiko: You really went all out with the lemon.
Aiba: I went all out with it.
Kumiko: You put in about 3 tablespoons ne.
Aiba: I did ne.
Kumiko: It'll be okay. This is a secret trick. (writing) At a time like this, when you've messed up the sauce,
what should you do! (writing)
Aiba: Yes?
Kumiko: This is the one thing that can always help you.
Aiba: Garlic~.
[writing: The cheese-grilled sardines are finished!]
Aiba: It's really pretty tasty.
Kumiko: Ne?
12:52
{the announcer says Matsumoto-kun begins cooking too.}
12:56
Jun: So, shall I go with the squid?
Kumiko: Go with the squid. Slorry to keep you waiting. The squid has arrived!
Jun: Here comes the squid~.
Kumiko: The squid has entered the building. Those who have awaited it's arrival, please come pick it up.
Jun: Where's the squid ink? In here?
Kumiko: In here, don't break it. You musn't break it.
13:14
{the announcer says first they remove the guts and legs from the cap.}
13:20
Kumiko: Just...
Jun: Oh, it came out.
Kumiko: It came out.
13:23
{the announcer says next they remove the skin}
13:26
Jun: Man, they seem like they're having tons of fun~! (writing)
[writing: Jealousy]
Aiba: That ne? Yes, okay I'll take it ne. Hey, what's that for?
Kumiko: They're playing a heck of a lot. (writing)
Jun: What? What was my suffering earlier...? (writing)
Aiba: Huh?
[Announcer: In the blink of an eye they've gotten friendly. As you would expect of Aiba-kun!]
Aimi: So~.
Aiba: So~, put this...
Aimi: Masaki, Masaki! (writing)
Aiba: That's right~. So this-
Aimi: Masaki-chan! (writing)
Aiba: So take this, and go like this.
Jun: Aimi-chan called him Masaki-chan. What do I care! (writing) It's not even funny.
[Announcer: He says that, but after all it does bother Matsumoto-kun]
Aimi: Who opened it, Aimi-chan ne?
Aiba: Yeah, Aimi-chan, Aimi-chan that- shouldn't you do up that button? That's good.
Jun: Aimi-chan, are you having fun? (writing)
Aiba: You're having fun ne. It's fun ne.
Jun: She ignired me... (writing)
[writing: Complete failure]
Jun: So! Let's do it! (writing)
14:36
{the announcer says now they're making Matsumoto-kun's squid-ink spaghetti. he gently removes the ink sac without
tearing it.}
14:47
Jun: Ah! Ah ah, it's coming out! (writing)
Kumiko: Hey hey-
Jun: This is bad, this is bad, this is really bad! This is really bad! (writing) It's coming out, it's coming
out.
Kumiko: So, you use one part of the guts of the squid, that brings the flavor up.
15:01
{the announcer says to heighten the flavor you remove the guts and mix it with the ink.}
15:05
Jun: Woah, it's incredibly thick.
Kumiko: Mix it.
Jun: Oh, eh?
Kumiko: He broke it!0_o He broke it!
[writing: Broken]
Jun: Eh, it came off! Eh? Just a sec, just a sec. Woah, I was sweating there.
Kumiko: So put in the squid guts and mix it there.
Jun: The squid guts? It's okay to put it in?
Kumiko: Yes. You separate it-
Jun: The ink as well?
Kumiko: You put in the ink as well.
Jun: You put them in together ne.
Kumiko: There's a bad smell to it.
15:38
{the announcer says finally he mixes a squashed tomato with the rest of the ink and puts the concoction in the
frying pan. Then adds white wine.}
15:54
Jun: Eh? It's fairly vague.
15:59
{the announcer says to bring out the depth of flavor you add chicken stock}
16:04
Jun: It's made it more flavorful than before.
16:09
{the announcer says he then cuts the squid into easily-consumable portions.}
16:13
Kumiko: So! Mori-Kumi's one point cooking! (writing)
Jun: What? What? What?
16:23
{the announcer says now he removes the squid's suction cups from its tentacles. Then he fries the guts in the
frying pan with olive oil and garlic.}
16:34
Jun: So, the liver.
Kumiko: The liver.
Kumiko: If you got right up the middle here, like this, it will kind of go in.
Jun: Ah, so then it comes out.
Kumiko: Yeah. Just try that.
16:50
{the announcer says they put in the bite-sized pieces of tentacle, and season them with soy sauce and butter.}
16:56
Jun: You put in butter, and soy sauce.
Kumiko: This is the tentacle-liver melange! (writing)
Jun: This really suits my mood. It's super ultra tasty! (writing) Incredibly tasty!
17:16
{the announcer says Matsumoto-kun's cooking is also on the home stretch. Once the squid has been cooked, he mixes
it in with teh squid-ink sauce. When you cook pasta you add oil, so that the pasta won't stick. Once you blend
the boiled pasta with the sauce...}
17:49
Jun: This is pasta with squid-ink sauce.
17:54
{the announcer says Arashi's specially made seafood cuisine is finished! This is what the two have made. Aiba's
specially made cheese-grilled sardines. A cheese-style batter, with lemon and soy sauce glaze. An item that
blends it's ingredients perfectly. Matsumoto's specially made squid-ink spaghetti. Made with squids innards and
ink, it's a truly Italian dish. A full-body dish! writing: Time to eat!}
18:25
Aiba: So, shall we eat? Ne?
Kumiko: Yes.
Jun: First, which one will you start with?
18:30
{the announcer says first is Matsumoto-kun's squid-ink spaghetti.}

Aiba: It's delicious?
Kumiko: Delicious!
Jun: Delicious?
Aiba: Delicious.

Kumiko: Ah, there it is~.
Aiba: Honoka, delicious? Aimi-chan?
Kumiko: Hm, and Aimi-chan?
Aimi: Delicious. (writing)
Kumiko: Delicious~!
Aiba: Delicious.
Kumiko: Huh, it's kind of looking good isn't it?
Aiba: Is it okay if I have them eat some of mine too, before they get full? (writing)
Kumiko: That's right ne.
Aiba: How is it, delicious? Delicious?
Kumiko: Delicious?
Aiba: Delicious? Really? Just now you paused for a second ne. (writing)
Jun: She was kind of hesitating just now.
Aiba: Just now you paused for a second ne. Delicious? Delicious ne.

Jun: You have some...incredibly fantastic children.
Kazuhiro: Thank you very much.
[writing: 'Aiba: Cheese-grilled battered sardines. Ahh~! I lost~! So frustrating~! Even though I thought I had
perfectly captured the children's hearts ne... Although it's important to play with them too, after all it's the
flavor ne. -Masaki' 'Jun: Squid-ink spaghetti. Although I had confidence in the flavor, when it came to winning
...it was an unbelievable turn-around victory! I was so happy! -Jun']
Aiba: Truly, thank you for the fantastic time today, it was fun.

Aiba: See, if you don't tell us ahead of time, even we don't know about it... Our taping finished just now,

Credit to Mori for the scan!:D
[Concering the Dome concert] During the preparations, what was the one thing you focussed on the most?
That would be the fact that "we're doing it in the Dome" ne. Because it's a place we've never done it before
I genuinely thought about how it would turn out. The equipment as well, I thought about what would be the best
way to get close to the upper seats and the result was that it turned out like that ne.
What are things you did from when you entered the arena to when the real performance was held?
I went to the guest seats... Although it was the same with the places close to the stage, I made sure of how
we could be seen from the far places and the sides. Not limited to just the Dome, I do that anywhere. In a certain
sense it's a bad habit ne (laughs).
What did you feel the instant you jumped up on stage?
Right before I went out I imagined the Dome full of guests.
What's the moment that left an impression on you?
It's the number of guests ne, as you would think.
Looking towards the summer tour, what are you thinking about at this stage?
Actually, I'm not thinking about anything. Because the meetings start from now.
[Recent condition]
Lately I found an incredibly delicious bread shop in the neighbourhood around my house. Freshly baked it's
extremely tasty. The chocolate croissant I had recently was also incredibly tasty. Other than that...lately
I've been so busy that I can't watch movies. Ogura (Tomoaki)-san sees a lot of movies, so when we're together
on the show I listen to his stories and think "ah~, I want to watch that". The ones I want to see right now are
[Pirates of the Carribean, At World's End] and [Babel], [The Queen]. Also, I've heard that [Sonata for a good
person] is incredibly good, I want to see that one too ne.
he really puts a lot of thought into things ne^^ Although I wonder why looking at the stage from various points of view would be a bad habitXD But he is a perfectionist:3 And MMM, chocolate croissant!XDD Damn, if I could get one of those fresh baked I'd be pretty happy too;P I'm lucky if I can even get fresh muffins once in a blue moon^^; But I feel bad that he can't see any movies lately, I hope he'll have some more free time soon:S I've seen Pirates, but not Babel (what is it about anyway???O_o) or The Queen, but I do want to see the Queen...and Harry Potter, which I'm sure he wants to see too (this is an article written at the beginning of June I think^^;;).
Now, it's officially less than a month until I'm going to Japan, and I will be there for 3 weeks, so obviously during that time I won't be able to do any translating (I'll be lucky if I can even check my emailO_o). I will do my best to keep going right up until the day I leave, and I'm sorry I won't be able to help out while I'm gone, but I will bring back lots of pics to shareXD Just wanted to let you all know well in advance^^ Take care, enjoy the con reports~=)More to come soonX3
もうすぐ。。。もうすぐだけXDそれまでに必死に頑張ります！；P
Hehe, yesterday I went to go sing karaoke with some friends, I really wanted to sing an Arashi song...but they don't know Japanese, so I thought it would be unfair since we were all sharing the cost of the booth^^; Another time...:S
Well, today I have the MMA from 07.04.14 with Jun and Aiba!:D Finally another Jun episode<3

Jun: You use the sardines.
Kumiko: Use them. Sardines are a fairly high level of difficulty~! (writing)
Aiba: Fishy... (writing) Alright, let's do it.
Jun: I dunno...
Aiba: So, is it okay to do my best now?
Jun: Normally you're a little more interesting huh.
Aiba: Ah, sorry, really.
Jun: By the way Aiba-san, um, have you ever fileted a fish before? (writing)
Aiba: I haven't ne. And, on top of which, I still have no idea what I should make using these. (writing)
Kumiko: So the one using the squid is...
Aiba: Matsumoto-kun.
Kumiko: Ne, Matsumoto-kun.
3:29
{the announcer says it's kind of forced, but Matsumoto-kun is in charge of the squid.}
3:32
Jun: How do you deal with squid? (writing)
Kumiko: You fool! (writing)
Aiba: He's fool ne!
Kumiko: Don't you have any confidence? (writing)
Aiba: Ne!
Kumiko: You two.
Jun: No, no confidence~. As soon as I saw this I had no confidence~. (writing)
[writing: Fear for what lies ahead... Announcer: These two can't be relied on at all. But in reality there's
a reliabl;e secret weapon in this household!]
Kumiko: Um, the eldest daughter, Honoka-chan is fairly skilled...
Jun: At cooking?
Kumiko: It seems she has some skill at cooking. (writing)
Jun: Honoka-chan is 8 isn't she?
Aiba: You're learning how to cook? You're learning!
Kumiko: For example, for example ne, Honoka-chan ne, can you handle sardines? (writing) Sardines.
Jun: You can handle sardines?
Kumiko: You can handle them?
Jun: You can filet three sardines?
4:12
[writing: They've found a powerful helper! Announcer: This is lucky!]
Jun/Aiba: Tempura. Spaghetti.
Kumiko: Squid sauce.
Aiba: Squid ink!
[Announcer: After having Honoka-chan show them her recipe book they pick their menu]
Aiba: Should we draw our expected finished products?
Jun: We're going to draw our expectations of the finished pasta?
Aiba: We are.
Kumiko: Yes, just a minute~. Yes Matsumoto-kun. What about that is squid spaghetti? The only thing that looks
like is hair, hair. (writing)
Jun: No no, I mean, isn't this how it is? When you draw squid spaghetti, isn't this what-
[writing: Hair?]
Kumiko: No.
4:46
{the announcer says Matsumoto-kun is trying out squid ink spaghetti, meanwhile Aiba-kun is...}
Kumiko: What is that?
Aiba: Eh? This is meuniere. Sardine.
Kumiko: With the sardine...
Aiba: Cheese grilled. Cheese-grilled sardines.
Kumiko: Doesn't that kind of look like leaves? (writing)
Aiba: I'm telling you it's not a leaf! It's this, this is what I'm making today.
5:09
{the announcer says Aiba is trying out cheese-grilled sardine, work hard both of you!}
5:18
Aiba: So, then, I'm beginning.
Kumiko: Yes.
Aiba: So here...
Kumiko: Ah, there? You don't have to do it that far! Ah, wrong, wrong! (writing)
Aiba: Geez, shut up~! (writing) You take the bones off like this-
[writing: Now you've done it...]
Kumiko: Where did the meat go?
Aiba: This is meat, there was meat here. There's meat.
[Announcer: At this terrible turn of events Mori-san...]
Kumiko: Honoka-chan, Honoka-chan. Could you come here for a sec?
5:56
{the announcer says this means it's time for the powerful helper, Honoka-chef's appearance.}
6:04
Aiba: This here~...how is it?
Kumiko: It's no good ne~.
Aiba: No good? So then, is it okay if you show me a sample on one of them? (writing) Okay?
Kumiko: Like that the cleaning has begun ne.
Aiba: I see ne.
Kumiko: This is even turning into a lesson for some adults ne~!
[writing: Honoka-chan turns it into a cooking class]
Aiba: So where do you go from? Ah, you start from there!
Kumiko: That's right ne~. That's where it is ne.
Aiba: you wash it!
Kumiko: You wash it!
Aiba: You both start and finish by wahsing the fish ne.
Kumiko: Yes.
[Announcer: At that time Matsumoto-kun is...]
Jun: So, what should we do? Aimi-chan, how old are you right now? Five? Five years old. Man~...what should you talk
about with a five-year-old~. (writing)
[Announcer: It's already been an hour since they met. However, the distance between him and Aimi-chan hasn't
narrowed at all.]
Jun: Aimi-chan won't talk to me.
[Announcer: Don't say that, keep trying.]
Jun: She'll run? She'll run, after all.
[writing: Dash]
Jun: I wonder what kind of escape it'll be. Let's draw pictures. Do you like drawing pictures? Aimi-chan, shall
we play shiritori? (writing; Japanese word game) Do you know shiritori? Then we can start with Aimi-chan.
[writing: Lip-synch?]
Jun: What, what did you say? What did you say, what did you say?
[writing: He tries sitting next to her but...]
Jun: And...and...even though I moved here...
[writing: Once again, dash]
Jun: She disappears. I'm done for. (writing)
[writing: Silence~]
Jun: She disappeared.
[Announcer: Aimi-chan won't give them a smile. Can the Arashi pair get along with her?]
Aiba: Honoka-chan, why don't you pass the baton now?
Kumiko: No, it's no good at this point.
Aiba; No good? It's just wham bam at this rate ne.
Jun: Um you see, Aimi-chan...
Aiba: She won't play?
Jun: She won't play with me at all ne. (writing)
Aiba: What about shiritori?
Jun: I said let's play shiritori, and she replied by lip-synching... (writing)
Aiba: You're really doing it, Honoka-chan you're really doing it~!
Kumiko: Ne.
Aiba: So Honoka-chan, shall we try going to the next lap? (writing)
Kumiko: Shape up you! (writing)
Aiba: Eh?
Kumiko: Do it yourself! This is your job! (writing)
Aiba: This is my job?
Kumiko: That's right!
[Announcer: This time, after she's done, Aiba-chan does some sardine fileting.]
Aiba: There it is~! All right! Right!
Kumiko: How is it? You got the meat?
[Announcer: Thanks to chef Honoka's skills, this time Aiba-kun is a big success! Next it's the making of the
batter.]
Aiba: Teacher, is this okay? (writing) It's okay. K, just a bit.
9:09
{the announcer says that since this time it's cheese-grilled they mix barley flour, powdered cheese, and water.}
9:15
Aiba: This is it right?
Kumiko: Yeah. Do it with that, be kind of gentle though. Gently.
Aiba: I'm doing it with a soft touch. (writing)
Kumiko: Ah, that's good, that's good!
[Announcer: And he gently, gently coats the sardines in batter.]
Kumiko: Skin-side down! Yes!
9:32
{the announcer says they put butter and oil in the frying pan and grill the sardines.}
9:35
Kumiko: Please flip it any second now.
Aiba: Alright, I'm flipping it~.
9:39
{the announcer says after it's browned a little you flip it over, add a little white wine, and steam it over
low heat.}
9:45
Kumiko: Isn't that great?!
Aiba: This is great!
Kumiko: Ah~, the skin the skin! That's pretty...
Aiba: Wrong, wrong, ah, it's wrong, it's wrong! Ah, that's right, that's right. That's it, that's it. Here I
go~.
Kumiko: Put that in the sauce, it will see it from above.
Aiba: The camera will? Eh?
Kumiko: Lid!
Aiba: Ah, lid, lid! Yes! You didn't tell me that would happen! That was a surprise~.
Kumiko: Hey~, just...
Aiba: Soin spin!
[writing: Hurry, ventilation!]
Aiba: Spin, this is dangerous, dangerous! This'll turn into a fire.
[Announcer: At that time, Aimi-chan suddenly decides to go outside. I wonder why? The worried Matsumoto-kun
goes after her.]
Jun: Aimi-chan!
Aimi: I don't want my picture taken (by the cameras)! (writing)
Jun: What did she say, what did she say?
[writing: 3rd failure today]
Jun: What did you say just now? What did she say?
Staff: She said she doesn't want her picture taken.
Jun: Taking pictures? We're not taking pictures.
Staff: They're cameras.
Jun: Eh?
Staff: They're cameras.
Jun: Ah~, cameras ne. Which is it ne? I guess it's me? (writing)
[Announcer: I see, so that's why she went out ne]
Jun: Ah~, I'm seriously screwed. (writing)
Aiba: So? I'm making the sauce~. So? Let's make the sauce. Ne.
Kumiko: It's good like that, that's good ne.
Aiba: It's okay like this, without doing anything?
Kumiko: No, that's fine! The flavor will come out!
Aiba: Ah, is that so?
Kumiko: It's fine like this, just put this in. You need some acidity ne. (writing)
Aiba: Acidity?
Kumiko: So what's acidic?
Aiba; Yogurt?
Kumiko: Ha~?
Aiba: Oh, look!
Kumiko: Ah, they have one. I told you, lemon. (writing)
Aiba: Lemon. 'The Television~!' (they always pose with lemons for that mag)
Kumiko: More or less one tablespoon (of lemon) would be good I guess. (writing) In this.
Aiba: A tablespoon, yes.
Kumiko: Yes.
Aiba: It's good already?
Kumiko: You put in too much! (writing)
Aiba; I put in too much?
Kumiko: Yes. That's enough for now. So please stir this~.
Aiba: Yes yes.
Kumiko: Mix it in.
Aiba: I'm mixing it~.
Kumiko: We put in lemon. It's kind of sauce-like ne?
Aiba: Just this?
Kumiko: Soy sauce, soy sauce.
Aiba: Soy sauce?
[Announcer: The last thing they add is soy sauce.]
Aiba: I'm the most nervous about this section, is it okay?
Kumiko: You really went all out with the lemon.
Aiba: I went all out with it.
Kumiko: You put in about 3 tablespoons ne.
Aiba: I did ne.
Kumiko: It'll be okay. This is a secret trick. (writing) At a time like this, when you've messed up the sauce,
what should you do! (writing)
Aiba: Yes?
Kumiko: This is the one thing that can always help you.
Aiba: Garlic~.
[writing: The cheese-grilled sardines are finished!]
Aiba: It's really pretty tasty.
Kumiko: Ne?
12:52
{the announcer says Matsumoto-kun begins cooking too.}
12:56
Jun: So, shall I go with the squid?
Kumiko: Go with the squid. Slorry to keep you waiting. The squid has arrived!
Jun: Here comes the squid~.
Kumiko: The squid has entered the building. Those who have awaited it's arrival, please come pick it up.
Jun: Where's the squid ink? In here?
Kumiko: In here, don't break it. You musn't break it.
13:14
{the announcer says first they remove the guts and legs from the cap.}
13:20
Kumiko: Just...
Jun: Oh, it came out.
Kumiko: It came out.
13:23
{the announcer says next they remove the skin}
13:26
Jun: Man, they seem like they're having tons of fun~! (writing)
[writing: Jealousy]
Aiba: That ne? Yes, okay I'll take it ne. Hey, what's that for?
Kumiko: They're playing a heck of a lot. (writing)
Jun: What? What was my suffering earlier...? (writing)
Aiba: Huh?
[Announcer: In the blink of an eye they've gotten friendly. As you would expect of Aiba-kun!]
Aimi: So~.
Aiba: So~, put this...
Aimi: Masaki, Masaki! (writing)
Aiba: That's right~. So this-
Aimi: Masaki-chan! (writing)
Aiba: So take this, and go like this.
Jun: Aimi-chan called him Masaki-chan. What do I care! (writing) It's not even funny.
[Announcer: He says that, but after all it does bother Matsumoto-kun]
Aimi: Who opened it, Aimi-chan ne?
Aiba: Yeah, Aimi-chan, Aimi-chan that- shouldn't you do up that button? That's good.
Jun: Aimi-chan, are you having fun? (writing)
Aiba: You're having fun ne. It's fun ne.
Jun: She ignired me... (writing)
[writing: Complete failure]
Jun: So! Let's do it! (writing)
14:36
{the announcer says now they're making Matsumoto-kun's squid-ink spaghetti. he gently removes the ink sac without
tearing it.}
14:47
Jun: Ah! Ah ah, it's coming out! (writing)
Kumiko: Hey hey-
Jun: This is bad, this is bad, this is really bad! This is really bad! (writing) It's coming out, it's coming
out.
Kumiko: So, you use one part of the guts of the squid, that brings the flavor up.
15:01
{the announcer says to heighten the flavor you remove the guts and mix it with the ink.}
15:05
Jun: Woah, it's incredibly thick.
Kumiko: Mix it.
Jun: Oh, eh?
Kumiko: He broke it!0_o He broke it!
[writing: Broken]
Jun: Eh, it came off! Eh? Just a sec, just a sec. Woah, I was sweating there.
Kumiko: So put in the squid guts and mix it there.
Jun: The squid guts? It's okay to put it in?
Kumiko: Yes. You separate it-
Jun: The ink as well?
Kumiko: You put in the ink as well.
Jun: You put them in together ne.
Kumiko: There's a bad smell to it.
15:38
{the announcer says finally he mixes a squashed tomato with the rest of the ink and puts the concoction in the
frying pan. Then adds white wine.}
15:54
Jun: Eh? It's fairly vague.
15:59
{the announcer says to bring out the depth of flavor you add chicken stock}
16:04
Jun: It's made it more flavorful than before.
16:09
{the announcer says he then cuts the squid into easily-consumable portions.}
16:13
Kumiko: So! Mori-Kumi's one point cooking! (writing)
Jun: What? What? What?
16:23
{the announcer says now he removes the squid's suction cups from its tentacles. Then he fries the guts in the
frying pan with olive oil and garlic.}
16:34
Jun: So, the liver.
Kumiko: The liver.
Kumiko: If you got right up the middle here, like this, it will kind of go in.
Jun: Ah, so then it comes out.
Kumiko: Yeah. Just try that.
16:50
{the announcer says they put in the bite-sized pieces of tentacle, and season them with soy sauce and butter.}
16:56
Jun: You put in butter, and soy sauce.
Kumiko: This is the tentacle-liver melange! (writing)
Jun: This really suits my mood. It's super ultra tasty! (writing) Incredibly tasty!
17:16
{the announcer says Matsumoto-kun's cooking is also on the home stretch. Once the squid has been cooked, he mixes
it in with teh squid-ink sauce. When you cook pasta you add oil, so that the pasta won't stick. Once you blend
the boiled pasta with the sauce...}
17:49
Jun: This is pasta with squid-ink sauce.
17:54
{the announcer says Arashi's specially made seafood cuisine is finished! This is what the two have made. Aiba's
specially made cheese-grilled sardines. A cheese-style batter, with lemon and soy sauce glaze. An item that
blends it's ingredients perfectly. Matsumoto's specially made squid-ink spaghetti. Made with squids innards and
ink, it's a truly Italian dish. A full-body dish! writing: Time to eat!}
18:25
Aiba: So, shall we eat? Ne?
Kumiko: Yes.
Jun: First, which one will you start with?
18:30

Aiba: It's delicious?
Kumiko: Delicious!
Jun: Delicious?
Aiba: Delicious.

Kumiko: Ah, there it is~.
Aiba: Honoka, delicious? Aimi-chan?
Kumiko: Hm, and Aimi-chan?
Aimi: Delicious. (writing)
Kumiko: Delicious~!
Aiba: Delicious.
Kumiko: Huh, it's kind of looking good isn't it?
Aiba: Is it okay if I have them eat some of mine too, before they get full? (writing)
Kumiko: That's right ne.
Aiba: How is it, delicious? Delicious?
Kumiko: Delicious?
Aiba: Delicious? Really? Just now you paused for a second ne. (writing)
Jun: She was kind of hesitating just now.
Aiba: Just now you paused for a second ne. Delicious? Delicious ne.
[Announcer: Well then, here's the judgement. Honoka-chan, Aimi-chan, your favor ne!]
Kumiko: Honoka-chan, Aimi-chan? Are you listening? Point at which one was the most delicious. Ready, and- one,

Jun: So, this is the report.
Kazuhiro: Ah, yes.
Jun: You have some...incredibly fantastic children.
Kazuhiro: Thank you very much.
[writing: 'Aiba: Cheese-grilled battered sardines. Ahh~! I lost~! So frustrating~! Even though I thought I had
perfectly captured the children's hearts ne... Although it's important to play with them too, after all it's the
flavor ne. -Masaki' 'Jun: Squid-ink spaghetti. Although I had confidence in the flavor, when it came to winning
...it was an unbelievable turn-around victory! I was so happy! -Jun']
Aiba: Truly, thank you for the fantastic time today, it was fun.
Kumiko: Truly, thank you very much.

sister was fairly good at cooking! This time Matsumoto-kun ne, wasn't really ne, able to get along with
them.
Sho: With the kids?
Jun: I couldn't get them to like me at all.
Sho: The Matsumoto Jun exterior was no good?
Jun: Completely ne.
Aiba: But you know, seeing it up close wasn;t the face too realistic? (writing)
Sho: It's not 'realistic' or anything else. Because it's the real thing. (writing)

Aiba: See, if you don't tell us ahead of time, even we don't know about it... Our taping finished just now,

Staff: Thoughtless. (writing)
[writing: Thoughtless assistant director]
Aiba: It's not 'thoughtless'! Just how thoughtless are you? We have to do a special! (writing) Either way.

[Concering the Dome concert] During the preparations, what was the one thing you focussed on the most?
That would be the fact that "we're doing it in the Dome" ne. Because it's a place we've never done it before
I genuinely thought about how it would turn out. The equipment as well, I thought about what would be the best
way to get close to the upper seats and the result was that it turned out like that ne.
What are things you did from when you entered the arena to when the real performance was held?
I went to the guest seats... Although it was the same with the places close to the stage, I made sure of how
we could be seen from the far places and the sides. Not limited to just the Dome, I do that anywhere. In a certain
sense it's a bad habit ne (laughs).
What did you feel the instant you jumped up on stage?
Right before I went out I imagined the Dome full of guests.
What's the moment that left an impression on you?
It's the number of guests ne, as you would think.
Looking towards the summer tour, what are you thinking about at this stage?
Actually, I'm not thinking about anything. Because the meetings start from now.
[Recent condition]
Lately I found an incredibly delicious bread shop in the neighbourhood around my house. Freshly baked it's
extremely tasty. The chocolate croissant I had recently was also incredibly tasty. Other than that...lately
I've been so busy that I can't watch movies. Ogura (Tomoaki)-san sees a lot of movies, so when we're together
on the show I listen to his stories and think "ah~, I want to watch that". The ones I want to see right now are
[Pirates of the Carribean, At World's End] and [Babel], [The Queen]. Also, I've heard that [Sonata for a good
person] is incredibly good, I want to see that one too ne.
he really puts a lot of thought into things ne^^ Although I wonder why looking at the stage from various points of view would be a bad habitXD But he is a perfectionist:3 And MMM, chocolate croissant!XDD Damn, if I could get one of those fresh baked I'd be pretty happy too;P I'm lucky if I can even get fresh muffins once in a blue moon^^; But I feel bad that he can't see any movies lately, I hope he'll have some more free time soon:S I've seen Pirates, but not Babel (what is it about anyway???O_o) or The Queen, but I do want to see the Queen...and Harry Potter, which I'm sure he wants to see too (this is an article written at the beginning of June I think^^;;).
Now, it's officially less than a month until I'm going to Japan, and I will be there for 3 weeks, so obviously during that time I won't be able to do any translating (I'll be lucky if I can even check my emailO_o). I will do my best to keep going right up until the day I leave, and I'm sorry I won't be able to help out while I'm gone, but I will bring back lots of pics to shareXD Just wanted to let you all know well in advance^^ Take care, enjoy the con reports~=)More to come soonX3
もうすぐ。。。もうすぐだけXDそれまでに必死に頑張ります！；P
