Long time no see :)♪
We made you (the fans reading) wait for a long time... for those of you who were waiting, I'm sorry!
I was trapped in a cage and couldn't get out these days, so now that I'm finally out, I'm happy :D
Oh, Shibutani Yutaka-san, the master of bass fishing! Haha
He's soooo good!
I'm enjoying our concerts so much, seriously!
It feels sooo good playing with our band ☆
Everytime I hold the guitar, I don't want to let my fingers leave the strings;
My technique still has lots of room for improvement, but I'm always so excited to see how I can play with my guitar...
I haven't had this kind of feeling before （flower）
And, playing (instruments) with everyone is so much fun :)！！
The song we're playing right now
♪Down up↑ (Subaru BAND's new song) is soooo much fun,
Shibuyan's lyrics are not weirdy at all,
This time I wrote the song first and gave it to you and you put the lyrics onto it ↑
The lyrics this time go along perfectly with this melody and tension ☆
A favorable wind is blowing harder and harder ♪
I think we still need to grow up a lot, but honestly I feel that this song is growing day by day ever since we started playing in Yokohama ↑
When I listen to Shibuyan's voice singing the last chorus, my soul always gets stirred up while I'm bridge-muting (a guitar technique) ☆
Everytime you sing that part, I watch your back and think,
My voice,
please resonate with Shibuyan's soul and power of words!
Also, Shibuyan singing the A-melo! (The first set of melodies)
The "Alright here we go!" feeling is in the air,
I look at that from your side and I get thrilled (lightning)
It's soooo good, really! I don't want to let go of my guitar just with one song,
So I always look forward to the morning sound rehearsals as well ♪
I think this song is going to turn itself into something real special by the end of this tour,
I think this is going to connect to something very meaningful to our band.
That's why tomorrow's Nagasaki is going to be great as well (earphone)(lightning)
The enjoyment in making a song together,
The happiness when the song is completed,
even before that, the fact that we're doing a band together makes me really happy
I think I was able to realize it now.
We have had different band activities before forming EIGHT, but now that we're together, we're showing each other our powers and working together. It's seriously the greatest thing ☆
We're going to leave so many good songs in history.
It might be a bit too early, but what kind of song should we make next?
SHIBUYAN!

........MAN that was long!! Hahaha he wrote a lot this time!
By the way, Shota appeared as the "special guest" in the most recent Subaru J-web diary entry (written around the same time as this Chimp entry; probably on the same bus ride) and he proudly declared that he likes Subaru over everyone else, lol.
Exact words:
And I will say this once again.
I like everyone in Eight ☆
But I like Shibuyan even mooooore!!
hahaha. They were all on their way from Oita to Nagasaki. Subaru said it's a four-hour bus ride and they were watching a Dragon Ball DVD. Well, Yoko, Maru, Ryo, Shota-san, Shibuyan and some Jrs were watching it while Hina and Ohkura were asleep.
