ATARIKUJIDA (lucky number): Hamada
2007/7/15
Hamada Takahiro of BOYS here
I’m being used as a back dancer for KanJani8’s tour right now and am studying things like humor.
Since we’re having our own concert in August, if I don’t study as much as I can, I won’t be funny.
Laugh.
I think I’ll learn to~ns this summer because I’m completely busy. I’m very happy.
Furthermore, I’ll be able to meet everyo~ne.
Laugh.
For those who are going, please look forward to a concert where you’ll definitely be able to laugh and have fun before heading home.
Next, I went for a drive
on one of my recent {off} days.
On hot days, I want to do things like go swimming in the river.
"Because my hometown is country and full of nature." Laugh.
So, everyone else, get your butts over here.
Laugh.
Last summer, KanJani8 took me to the river or the sea and it was tons of fun.
I want to go again.
I want to watch a manzai * DVD with Maruyama-kun too.
Laugh.
Well, we must work as hard as possible on our own concert.
Laugh.
It’ll be an amusing concert because all of the Kansai Jr.s are in it.
Everyone will most definitely laugh.
Laugh.
Look forward to it everyone.
That’s all.
This was Hamada Takahiro. **
* Manzai is a Japanese style comedy routine. Wikipedia. Entry Top.
** It’s interesting that he has the old kanji for "Hama" (濱) in his last name. The brusque "That’s all" (以上) reminded me of Ryo as well. Haha. Entry Top.

Waddu~p!
Hamada Takahiro of BOYS here.
Ever since I went fishing on a recent {OFF} * day, I’ve really gotten into fishing.
As expected, a guy from the country has a country pastime.
I didn’t catch anything though.
(Laugh)
In the summer, the guys in BOYS are going to come hangout at my ** house.
I can’t help but be psyched.
And I’m thinking we’ll go to the river near my house that day.
I said that we should have a BBQ there.
For vegetables, I think everyone knows this but I plan on taking fresh vegetables that were grown in my family’s fields.
Laugh.
For meat, I’m leaving that up to everyone else.
Laugh.
But, it won’t just be BOYS. I want them to bring other people too.
Once everyone goes, I’ll give a report.
So, everyone, get your butts over here.
Laugh.
That’s all.
This was Hamada Takahiro.
* Like before, he wrote "OFF" in English. In the future, any text in between "{" and "}" was originally in English in the entry. Entry Top.
** He used "ore" (俺) which is the more "masculine" term for "I." I personally see the majority of JE guys as "boku" (ぼく・僕) so "ore" usage, especially by Jr.s, amuses me a little... But that’s just me being weird. (.^_^) Wikipedia 1. Wikipedia 2. Entry Top.
2007/7/29
BOYS’ Hamada Takahiro, who now has the dances polished, he~re.
Laugh.
The last entry was nothing but me talking about my house. Laugh.
This time, I want to talk a lot about other things.
I’ve been doing my best on the dances even more than before because our concert this summer at the Shochikuza is a great chance for us.
Places where I should stop in the choreography, I definitely pause. I’ve properly fixed those tiny places by myself and so I’ll be dancing my own sleek style.
This is how I practice all of the time.
However, in order to dance extra sleek,
I determine the angles and turning speed,
I memorize the dance and picture it in my head without moving my body, and crisply dance.
I’ve also increased lessons.
Laugh.
If I do that, you’ll be able to see my dancing become a little more refined than before.
With effort, I think I can get a little better in even a short amount of time.
It’s tiring but with dancing...
Because the enjoyment surpasses all of that, I don’t think it’s weird or painful.
Laugh.
So, people who are coming to the Shochikuza in the summer, please look at my Dancing Face.
I’ll be sweating hard but my face will probably be glowing.
Laugh.
Of course! Pay attention to the dance, songs and words too.
Laugh.
To all of the fans,
At this concert, please watch the completely different "Version Up" me a lot.
Then, praise me.
Laugh.
I’m the type that grows with praise.
Laugh.
Of course, tell me where I screw up too.
This is because I want to fix it and keep "Version Up"-ing.
Thank you for the constant support.
Really, I’m how I am now because I have everyone’s support. It’s so enjoyable.
REALLY, I sincerely thank you.
I’ll keep trying my best.
So, support me tons.
Later.
This was BOYS’ Hamada Takahiro.
2007/8/5
He~y.
BOYS’ Hamada Takahiro here.
That week was REALLY fast.
Laugh.
Inside, it feels as though only two days have passed
I think I’m using my time wisely.
Laugh.
Every day is REALLY hot.
I’m fed up.
My body is horrible because I’m sensitive to the summer heat and the winter cold.
Laugh.
Well, last time I talked a lot about dancing. I’m at a loss as to what I should talk about this time...... Laugh.
I want a bunch of clothes right now.
I don’t have time to go shopping because of lessons and such.
Laugh.
Anyway, summer fashion’s just T-shirts.
Plus, I don’t look good in shorts.
I don’t have any fashion sense.
I don’t have any money.
Laugh.
My foot itches.
Laugh.
Well, the biggest reason is because my foot itches.
Laugh.
So, someone please come scratch my foot
Laugh.
Just kidding
Laugh.
I haven’t had much time to sleep lately because I’ve been REALLY busy with lessons and such.
Being busy is really nice and I’m happy but I want more sleep time.
Laugh.
But I am Hamada Takahiro and I shall do my best
Laugh.
Since I’m really working hard, please keep supporting me.
So, bye by~e

He~y, Hamada Takahiro here.
At the Shochikuza, I’m working hard at our concert and at Imai Tsubasa’s stage show. However, there’re a lot of things to get a laugh from the audience at our concert
Laugh.
On the other side, I would like you to see the dancer I am at Tsubasa-kun’s stage show.
How much have I improved?
I’ve REA~LLY been working hard
Laugh.
I’m working hard and dancing to the point where I feel like I’m about to die.
Laugh.
I’m dancing carefully, step by step.
So, I think I’ve definitely gotten better.
People who are coming to see it, please expect it.
It’ll be a concert that will definitely make you think, "I’m glad I went."
And, this has no relation whatsoever but I’m really hungry right now.
Laugh.
Yasuda-kun took me out to eat recently.
Yasuda-kun showing up, while also busy with his tour, made me happy.
Thank you, Yasuda-kun
Because I want to back dance for KanJani8-san again, I look forward to another chance.
Well. Later.
Bye by~e.

Hey, I’m the one who’s into banana’s right now, BOYS’ Hamada Takahiro
Recently, I’m eating things like banana flavored soy milk
and banana candy.
I was into apples before but...
Now it’s bananas.
U~mm... I don’t know what I should talk about first so for now I’ll say something that was enjoyable and something that was sad today
Laugh.
Today’s enjoyable thing:
I passed the time getting splashed with hot water at a bath house.
Today’s sad thing:
Getting splashed by the hot water, I got a little bu~~~rned.
Laugh.
Apart from that, I want to have a BBQ soon.
But it feels like I can’t because I don’t have any free time.
Laugh.
But, if I get free time, I will go to a BBQ without fail.
It’s really hot.
I really like summer but lately I can’t bear the heat.
It’s a test of strength...
To the fans,
This summer has been turned into the warmest and best memories ever.
Thank you.
There are still some shows left so I will keep doing my best. Please keep watch.
Catch ya later.
This was banana loving Hamada Takahiro.
2007/8/26
He~y. (^^)/
Level 2 Hamada Takahiro whose belly aches here.
(Laugh)
I'm skipping breakfast because
at the concerts I wolf down pasta and curry.
(Laugh)
To gobble the pasta so fast,
I swallow it without chewing.
Same with the curry.
This summer is really just good memories.
Also, I think the BBQ with BOYS on our {OFF} day will top off this summer.
(Laugh)
The summer can't end if I don't swim.
When I think about this summer's Shochikuza shows finishing, I miss them a bit.
But when I think of it being the connecting step to the next stage, I'm not so sad.
Besides, I still have backdancing for KanJani8 left to look forward to so I have to do my best.
I'm dancing until I drop but my body hasn't given out on me.
(Laugh)
Here's a lesson from me
Image (JaniBen). (Laugh)
Own yourself
If you can do this, you can climb over even heartbreaking things.
Even during tough marathons,
if you own your body's weariness, you'll "Power Up."
When you have an argument with your friend and can't make up. You're unable to say the words, "I'm sorry" first. If you own yourself, you can say those words.
If you can move on, you can put any amount of things into action.
Actions over words
To people who blame your mother for not waking you when you oversleep on an early morning
(Laugh)
When you have to wake up, you have to wake yourself up
It's all you.
Wake yourself up.
↑ That's my thing.
(Laugh)
Lastly, to all the fans,
This year's summer
was a fun summer for everyone.
I was able to have concerts and had a fun time because of everyone.
Thank you.
2007/9/2
He~y.
Hamada Takahiro here.
The summer Shochikuza shows are over and the next day, two of my hometown guy friends and I went to the river.
I had an amazingly fulfilling day off.
And, I think all of the Jr.s will go to that river and have a BBQ any day now.
I can't wait.
It'll definitely be fun.
We'll definitely party on because not just BOYS were invited.
And, Tsubasa-kun's show and KanJani8's concert is over.
Good job.
It was extremely wearisome but extremely enjoyable.
Did we satisfy the people who came
We are all very pleased.
(Laugh)
We developed good relations with Tsubasa-kun and our dancing skills developed
(Laugh) and such.
It was really a good experience and it felt as though I could climb over any barrier to own myself.
I sincerely thank you
, Tsubasa-kun.
(Laugh)
I won't cut corners and will keep doing my best.
And, I'll become amusing.
(Laugh)
That's all.
This was BOYS' Hamada Takahiro.
Bye bye.
2007/9/9
He~y, BOYS’s Hamada Takahiro here
I went to
the BBQ that was planned and spoken about before on TV
It was sooooo fun.
The river was a little cold because the summer’s over.
Laugh.
Then, as soon as the BBQ started, it poured.
Laugh.
Instantly cancelled, we went back to my house and took baths
In the evening, we set off fireworks.
My leg has 11 mosquito bites.
Only me.
Laugh.
Then, I found out that Ryuta’s extremely afraid of the dark.
Laugh.
When going to the bathroom at night, he tried waking me but I was patient and pretended to be asleep.
Laugh.
It was too much fun.
Then, while driving, a wild deer jumped out and ran into us.
Laugh.
Then, we saw a fox and
Daichi was extremely thrilled.
Laugh.
I was pleased when everyone said that they wanted to come back again.
Tons of huge bugs flying about when we went to the river was the only thing people complained about.
Laugh.
When they come again, I think there’ll be more.
Laugh.
Kunta had things to do so he couldn’t make it but Hamanaka-kun came so it was really interesting.
I found out that Hamanaka-kun really really hates bugs.
I knew of his hatred of being ignored.
Laugh.
While we were playing around,
we would ignore Bun’ichi-kun’s chattering.
And Bun’ichi-kun would yell out,
“Quit ignoring me~
”
Making us all laugh.
Laugh.
And this was our past time where we shouldn’t’ve been laughing.
It was too funny.
I think we’ll do this when we have a concert again too.
That was how I spent a great day off.
Thank you.
2007/9/16
He~y.
BOYS' Hamada Takahiro here.
Well
Summer is over but next is Fall.
It's Fall fashion.
Laugh.
When I went out some time ago,
I decided to wear a long sleeve shirt because it was cold in the morning and left.
Then, it quickly got hotter and when I was going home a person around me said,
“Ah
That person's already in Fall mode
”
“Well, the season’s Fall but the temperature’s Summer
”
When I heard that conversation, it was Embarrassment Level 100.
Laugh.
Well, you gotta brush stuff like that off.
More recently, Hamanaka-kun’s family and everyone from the previous BBQ had another BBQ around a mountain that’s a small distance from Hamanaka-kun’s hometown.
Laugh.
This was also a blast.
The weather was clear, sunny and the best.
And, we gathered chestnuts.
Laugh.
I discovered that chestnut gathering is su~ch a fun thing to do.
Laugh.
And, while chestnut gathering,
A chestnut fell from above onto Hamanaka-kun’s back. He screamed really loudly and it was really funny.
Laugh.
Because he said,
“I was pierced by a chestnut!”
Laugh.
And, there were lots of bugs
because of the mountains.
And Hamanaka-kun’s mother hates large bugs.
And when everyone separated to gather chestnuts,
once in a while I could hear a low yell.
Laugh.
And I’d burst out laughing.
Laugh.
Wish everyone could’ve heard it.
Laugh.
And then, the BBQ!
Bun’ichi-kun ended up getting the meat from the store so the taste was to die for.
It was extremely delicious.
Also, older acquaintances were there.
One of them was so funny that my stomach hurt.
Laugh.
As expected, I was able to hear one of Osaka’s treasures.
Laugh.
I had a really enjoyable day off.
Next is working hard at my job.
Playtime is the time to play.
If I can’t,
It'll be Hamada Takahiro burnout.
Laugh.
Well, let’s meet again! Bye by~e.
~*vVv*~
Haha. Little pets are so adorable in their J-Webs. It was such a short amount of time but quite entertaining. I look forward to the next time they get a special J-Web. (.^_^)
Hamada's were translated at a faster pace because he didn’t write as much as CE-kun. Haha. Even though the actual J-Web was blue, this font color was chosen because it was the color tape he had on his mic.
(.^_^)v ありがとう～♪
