Domoto TsuyoshiTo (Nagase) Tomoya Baby,
How are ya? Tomoya Baby. I'm the same as usual. I think you've got a lot going on, but let's do our best.
If you had to bungee jump from the highest point in the world or ride a high speed rollercoaster, which would you choose?
I don't want to do either, but if I had to say one, it'd be the rollercoaster wouldn't it? That way I've already given in. You have to jump by yourself with bungee jumping, but once you're put on a rollercoaster, there's nothing you can do.TOKIO
Nagase TomoyaTo the following people,
To (Tegoshi) Yuya. If you buy a crappy car I'll kick your ass! When I asked you what kind of car was your first choice, I thought I wouldn't be able to be your friend. The words you said after I told you that, "W-w-wait, please. I'll rethink it" - I believe in them. Afterall, men what value is a car with a temperature guage that wildly moves around! A vehicle isn't something that's convenient! My car, motorcycle, my bike - they're all inconvenient![1]
To Yasuda (Shota). Please, give me [my?] guitar.
To (Domoto) Tsuyoshi. Thanks for letting me hang out at your house the other day. It was my first time seeing an Endlicheri, and there were a lot of different kinds of fish, I was really moved. So, I just want to ask you this one thing...next time, could I eat just one of them? I think if it was broiled with salt, or fried up all crispy, it'd be really good.
To (Tanaka) Koki. I wonder how you're doing. Lately you haven't called me. I miss you. Let's hang out again sometime. For you, I'll make the best lyrics.
If you had to bungee jump from the highest point in the world or ride a high speed rollercoaster, which would you choose?
Either is OK! Recently, I went bungee jumping abroad from 55 meters up. Even I was a little nervous at that height of course, so I had to gather my strength before I jumped off (lol). But once I tried it, I was totally fine. From beginning to end, I was able to keep my eyes open.Arashi
Sakurai ShoTo the following people,
To Kazama (Shunsuke). I was really glad to be able to see my first Takaradzuka show with you. For some reason, I really love you because you know someone at the theater, and you were well acquainted with the inside of the theater. But I won't go with you ever again. Goodbye.
To Yokoyama (Yuu). Let's have a good day again. Today I'm having a good day.[2]
If you had to bungee jump from the highest point in the world or ride a high speed rollercoaster, which would you choose?
I definately wouldn't do either! I won't go! I hate scary stuff like that. If I had to say one, I'd get on the rollercoaster but...(lol). There is no way I'm bungee jumping. Ah, but if the cameras were rolling I'd do it.Tackey & Tsubasa
Takizawa HideakiTo the following people,
To A.B.C. Since we're touring together, I'd like to work well together and have fun. Well, we've done plays and stuff together before, so I think we'll have fun. Next month on A.B.C.'s page, please hold a four person revealing-contest with love as the theme. From the Editor: Takizawa.
To Kawai (Fumito). The common theme for this issue's message board is for Kawai, isn't it (lol).
If you had to bungee jump from the highest point in the world or ride a high speed rollercoaster, which would you choose?
Either one is fine. I could do either. 'Cause I'm used to it. But when I do it, I'll be with Kawai (lol).V6
Okada JunichiTo Nishikido (Ryo)-kun and Tanaka Koki-kun,
I haven't really talked to you guys so I don't really get it (lol), I think it's nice and I want to support you, so I want to send a message to the two of you (lol). I think you guys are interesting and have become interested in you. That absolute does not mean I like men (lol). I'm genuinely looking forward to both of your activities, so please do your best.
If you had to bungee jump from the highest point in the world or ride a high speed rollercoaster, which would you choose?
The rollercoaster. I like rollercoasters. It's been several years since I've been, but I like amusement parks. I want to try riding the fastest rollercoaster in the world.NEWS
Yamashita TomohisaTo the following people,
To Kame (Kamenashi Kazuya). I was thinking we should go for motsu nabe, but are you more into salt-flavor? Or miso-flavor?
To Nakamaru (Yuuichi)-kun. It seems like you've become interested in salon treatments. I think TBC is probably good.
To Shirota Yuu. Whenever I start a drama I don't have much time to meet, but I'm doing my best so would you like to hang out?
If you had to bungee jump from the highest point in the world or ride a high speed rollercoaster, which would you choose?
I guess bungee jumping. Since I've never bungee jumped before, and I can kind of imagine what the roller coaster would be like. Yeah, bungee jumping.KAT-TUN
Taguchi JunnosukeTo the "Hyakushiki" members,
I watch the show every week. (While reading the WU March issue.) Ah~, I saw this Beethoven thing too. It's interesting isn't it. And then when Ishigaki (Daisuke) sometimes says crazy stuff, it's funny and I realized he has that kind of side to him. Fujigaya (Taisuke) seems like the boss in the group, he doesn't actually know anything, right? (lol) KatoKan (Katou Kan) needs to study, that's my tsukkomi[3]. And then the teacher (Inohara Yoshihiko), the program really is interesting because the teacher is there.
If you had to bungee jump from the highest point in the world or ride a high speed rollercoaster, which would you choose?
Both are fun! I can do either. But if I had to pick, I like fast stuff. I sky dive too, so there's nothing I'm afraid of anymore.Kanjani8
Shibutani SubaruTo the following people,
To Nightmare-san. I learned about you guys in the music file "This Month's Interesting Musician" from WU's March issue's, but I was wondering, how long does it take to do that makeup and hair? I'm really interested. Would you try it out on me one time? It's just that I'm in a band too, so I became relaly interested. So please do your best. If we could, I'd like to do a concert together. I'm also an interesting musician.
To Nakanomori BAND-san. I remember when you came to greet [me/us] in the dressing room. Nakanomori BAND and Subaru BAND are similar aren't they. Though it's just the names. I'd like to do a concert together next time.
If you had to bungee jump from the highest point in the world or ride a high speed rollercoaster, which would you choose?
Bungee jumping. I like high places. I'll say "Aa~ I'm scared!" but that's fun. Sky diving is too high and I don't want to do it, so bungee jumping is just right.Arashi
Ohno SatoshiTo (Imai) Tsubasa,
I saw your message in last month's issue. Alright let's do it (lol)! Let's ask the boss together "Please let us do it"~. Also, tell me your phone number!
If you had to bungee jump from the highest point in the world or ride a high speed rollercoaster, which would you choose?
Bungee jumping. I've never done it, so I'd like to do it. I used to totally hate rollercoasters. But I thought I'd conquer my fear, so I rode all of the rollercoasters at the amusement park and became okay with them.NEWS
Koyama KeiichiroTo Oguri Shun-kun,
I'm watching the drama "Hana Yori Dango 2." I think you're pretty busy, but let's go out to eat again. Would it be okay ...if I casually text you? I'm sure you're really busy...
If you had to bungee jump from the highest point in the world or ride a high speed rollercoaster, which would you choose?
Uhh the rollercoaster! I'm afraid because the bungee jump rope seems like it'd break (lol).Kanjani8
Murakami ShingoTo the following people,
To Kokubun (Taichi)-san. Kokubun-san! I said, Kokubun-san! Kokubun-san, hey!! I called you recently you know! Did you forget that I called you? Kokubun-san! Hey, Kokubun-san! Are you listeing!? Kokubun-sa~n!!!
To Inohara (Yoshihiko)-kun. Did you read my letter?
If you had to bungee jump from the highest point in the world or ride a high speed rollercoaster, which would you choose?
The rollercoaster! I'm afraid of bungee jumping. I can't do high places. It's scary, scary.B.A.D.
Kiriyama AkitoTo the following people,
To Yasuda (Shota)-kun and (Tanaka) Koki-kun. Please teach me Remake...♪ Next time we meet, please hang out with me again.
To (Domoto) Tsuyoshi-kun. I'm hopi~ng you'll teach me to sing and to play instruments. One day I'd like to be on "Shoujiki Shindoi" with you.
To Fujigaya (Taisuke). Please come to Osaka ♪
To Goseki (Koichi). I'll really let you come and stay over!!
To Mukai Tatsurou and Kouji. I love you guys too ♪
To Nakama (Junta). I love you (Blush)♪
If you had to bungee jump from the highest point in the world or ride a high speed rollercoaster, which would you choose?
I want to do both. If I had to pick, I guess bungee jumping. I've never done it before. But to be honest, I'm not good with heights (lol). NEWS
Katou ShigeakiTo Kitayama (Hiromitsu),
Thanks [for everything] at the end of the year party. Without forgetting that heated conversation, let's both do our best to have a good year.
If you had to bungee jump from the highest point in the world or ride a high speed rollercoaster, which would you choose?
It'd be the rollercoaster, right? I mean, I'm just afraid of bungee jumping (lol). If that's the case, isn't it better to pick the one that'd be more fun?Kanjani8
Ohkura TadayoshiTo Yabu (Kouta), Kitayama (Hiromitsu), and Tottsuu (Totsuka Shota),
Let's go out to eat again.
If you had to bungee jump from the highest point in the world or ride a high speed rollercoaster, which would you choose?
The rollercoaster. I love them!Musical Academy
Machida ShingoTo the following people,
To (Domoto) Tsuyoshi-kun. We should definately have a nabe party within March sometime!
To Taguchi (Junnosuke). You've got to let me in with your billiard friends.
To (Morita) Go-kun. I want to go out to eat [with you].
To Takki (Takizawa Hideaki). Let's go out to eat (please take me with you).
If you had to bungee jump from the highest point in the world or ride a high speed rollercoaster, which would you choose?
If it was the fastest in Japan I'd definately pick the rollercoaster. I'm not that bad with heights, but I'm scared, afterall. But if it's just fast, I can get through it.M.A.D.
(Fukuda, Tatsumi, Koshioka, Matsuzaki)To the following people,
To Ninomiya (Kazunari)-kun. That nabe party we had with Tom (Cruise) recently was fun wasn't it. Is it true that afterwords Cameron (Diaz) came? You should have called us...please invite us again!
To the Michael Schumacher-san of Johnny's (Domoto Koichi). Thank you so much for being kind to M.A.D. Next time please look out for not just Matsuzaki, but the other three too.
If you had to bungee jump from the highest point in the world or ride a high speed rollercoaster, which would you choose?
Majority rule says....3 to 1, the rollercoaster!Arashi
Aiba MasakiTo All of the Readers,
This month I really, really thought about it, but I don't have anyone to write a message to! I really tried hard! I thought about it! I'm really sorry! Last month it seems a message came from Kazama-kun but thats...not really....ya know. Please give me a one time pass!
If you had to bungee jump from the highest point in the world or ride a high speed rollercoaster, which would you choose? *Note from the editors: The parts in () below are Sho-kun's words.
I want to try both! (I said to give it up!) Ah, but if I had to pick, I think it'd be bungee jumping~. (You like high places afterall) You can savor that I guess I'm going for it feeling, so I think it would be fun. (I wouldn't do either) Can you answer with that (lol)? Well, then I want to do both afterall! Bungee jumping from the rollercoaster! (That's greedy~)Ya-Ya-yah
Yamashita ShoonTo Miyake Ken-kun,
Right now the thing I'm most interested in is the brand of the accessories Miyake-kun usually wears. If we have some opportunity to meet, I was thinking I'd like you to show me your collection. Next time, please show it to me!
If you had to bungee jump from the highest point in the world or ride a high speed rollercoaster, which would you choose?
Definately bungee jumping. Even if I had the chance to ride a thrill ride, bungee jumping isn't something you get to try often. I want to challenge myself with lots of different things. So, bungee jumping.KAT-TUN
Ueda TatsuyaTo Matsumoto Jun-kun,
I heard a rumor that you were doing boxing, but is that true? If it's true, will you try going up against me?
If you had to bungee jump from the highest point in the world or ride a high speed rollercoaster, which would you choose?
The fast rollercoaster (immediate answer). You have to jump by yourself when you're bungee jumping right? I'm not really bad with heights, but I don't like how you have to decide when to jump by yourself while looking down (lol). I can't do stuff like bungee jumping.Johnny's Jr.
Ikuta TomaTo Yamashita (Tomohisa),
You wrote "Please come hang out at my house" (in WU's February message board), but I haven't been able to go yet. ...I mean, where is your house (lol)! Let's relax and go out to eat again.
If you had to bungee jump from the highest point in the world or ride a high speed rollercoaster, which would you choose?
The super rollercoaster. That seems safer. You have to jump by yourself with bungee jumping, right? I'm the type that wouldn't go unless someone pushed my back, so please give me the one that leaves things up to the flow [4].
1 - Nagase kind of seems to be contradciting himself even in the Japanese. Sorry I couldn't translate this one in a way that makes more sense ^^;; My guess is that Tegoshi was going to buy some piece of shit car (maybe from a friend because it was convenient, or a used car place close to his house), and Nagase is trying to tell him he needs to go out of his way to get a manlier, cooler car.
2 - Sho is using the Japanese-English "good day" (グッディ) to mean basically "have a good time."
3 - In Japanese comedy, tsukkomi is the person (or a joke) that makes fun of the dumb guy.
4 - I.e. the machine moves on it's own.
