Loooooooooong but once again incredibly adorable 5nin talk.
N: This concert, compared to past years, has increased in both length and the number of locations, so let us begin by discussing our individual ways of staying motivated.
TJ: Waaaaaah~ That's so like a lecture, Nakamaru-sensei!
N: (Ignores) Regarding how to stay motivated, does everyone have something you keep in mind and do for it?
K: During concert periods, I would shower before the concert starts. This will get me into the mood, and backstage when everyone gathers together to boost morale, I would become completely immersed in the mood. (For some reason began to use formal speech...)
N: That's right, where work is concerned, Kame's professional attitude has always been very strong. It's very strong every time, very good, very good. (For some reason started talking with a lofty tone)
All: ............
N: Koki, what would you do?
TK: Yeh, even though every day we redo the same things, we must find the fun in those sort of days, and once we find them, to enjoy it.
N: I see, well said. Then, Ueda?
U: Ob goz ze wappo o de ombianz iz moh enboren (his mouth is full of sushi)
N: That's right, of course the support of the audience is most important. (Why do you understand, Nakamaru?!) What about Taguchi?
TJ: I will, think of my homeland, my mother's face, and do my best.
All: ............
N: Why do you have to speak word by word, what country are you from?
K: Also, I will drink good quality water, take care of my body, and not let myself get a cold!
N: Aren't you here with a cold right now!! You, your bronchi are no good. As for me I'm the same as Koki, just concentrate on enjoying the fun of the moment, and that way my mood naturally gets high.
TK: Such as "What will we eat tonight~" that sort of fun~
N: Eating! Eating is very important too! Okay, next topic, KAT-TUN's new fans! In order to attract fans of all types, what is most important for KAT-TUN? In other words, what sort of people would you like to get support from?
TK: It's such a rare opportunity for us to do a world tour, we'd like to have some contact with people overseas, not just girls, but hopefully guys might come watch us too.
K: The single "Going" is like that too, how to understand more about KAT-TUN, we want to prepare more on this point.
U: Like spreading word-by-mouth, one person bringing another, if it can spread through these multidimensional networks then it would be great.
N: Multidimensional...the pronunciation of the word sounds horrible.
TK: So, if you introduce five people to watch, you will move up in rank...
N: Of course not!
K: But honestly, not just singing, in order to let everyone know more about KAT-TUN, Nakamaru participated in a quiz show, I'm doing a baseball program, Ueda is practising boxing, Koki is acting in Hissatsu, and as for Taguchi...
TJ: Only I'm in a really tragic state.
All: WAHAHAHAHA
N: Aye, and then, even if you're a Myojo reader, even amongst those who've seen Hey!Say!JUMP's concert, I think a lot of people haven't watched KAT-TUN's concerts.
K: Why are you so hung up over JUMP?
U: Because they're young? Because they're young?
N: No way! I say, it's because a lot more readers began reading Myojo since this spring.
U: Hehehe~
N: Then, the generation who just began reading Myojo, must be in the JUMP age group right?
U: Nakamaru's always trying to analyse things like this.
N: This is where it's important! In order to attract these youngsters, what should we do?
TK: Well, compared to JUMP, I think I look cooler.
TJ: Not at all.
N: Not at all.
U: That's so petty~ As a senpai, that's so petty.
K: Do you think primary school kids and first year high schoolers would like us?
N: Ah, speaking of that, I heard some rumours that apparently for those precocious kids, KAT-TUN's not fully a thing of the past yet.
U: Aye, we're already counted as middle-aged.
TJ: That's because we ARE middle-aged!
TK: Even for senior high-schoolers we're middle-aged!
K: But when I see senior high school girls, my heart still races.
U: Eh~ That's because of the uniform right! I'm with you!
TK: Er, I don't get any feeling.
N: I don't think you should watch uniformed girls, it's not nice to stare so long at people.
TJ: You don't need to do it to that extent!
K: Did you guys know? The girls around me, 90% wear pantyhose.
All: Oooooooh.......? [TN: ==;;;; You guys sound like boys on a school camp]
U: I get it! It's an era where you mustn't show your legs.
N: Then, let's discuss the topic of the pantyhose next.
TJ: There's no need to discuss the topic of the pantyhose right? [TN: Junno you're clearly NOT getting into the spirit of male fantasies LOL]
U: No, let's talk let's talk~ Didn't you ask me a while before what my thoughts on pantyhose are? (Suddenly enthusiastic)
N: By the way, didn't you say, Ueda, you can't stand pantyhose?
TK: If it's me, what's so special about pantyhose? That sort of thing doesn't matter right, it's like a type of tights.
N: Are pantyhose tights? Is that right? I didn't know.
U: NO! It's not tights! (As he speaks, he very passionately begins to explain) Then, then, wearing pantyhose and not wearing pantyhose, which is better?
K: Not wearing!
U: Me too!
N: I don't have any special requirements here.
TK: I choose garter + stockings!
All: WAHAHAHAHA
TJ: I............
All: (Await Taguchi's words)
TJ: Can deal with either one~
All: .............(Fall off chair)
TK: This sort of situation happens a lot, we throw the topic to Taguchi and then we're the ones who suffer in the end.
TJ: It should have stopped at the garter stocking.
K: How did the topic get onto pantyhose?
N: IT WAS BECAUSE OF YOU!
K: We returned to the starting point of our tour's theme, we wish to show everyone a different side of ourselves. Not just in concerts, but in Myojo too, even if we're filming in freezing rain, we will face it with a smile. [TN: their photos were taken in the rain]
N: After nonchalantly criticising Myojo, we'll move onto the next topic of the hairstyle during concerts, for some reason I'm a little bothered.
TJ: That came out of nowhere!
N: Um, during concerts, are hairstyles very important?
K: Yes, because it's for people to see, so it's very important. Not just hairstyles, I even wear more accessories.
N: I can't deal with too many accessories. I wear a watch, but for necklaces and stuff, when you're dancing and spinning won't it hit your face?
K: Even though sometimes I get tripped by my own clothes, I wear accessories on purpose to get my mood high. For example I would go to a salon before concerts, or go do my nails.
N: Ha~ that's like what girls would do.
K: Yeah, it's good, it's men's beauty (face begins to glow)
U: Then, you should get rid of the puffiness first.
K: Yeah.
TK: Concert hairstyles...I'm sorry, I'm pretty much always a buzz cut...
TJ: This long hair is a first in a long time.
TK: Really? So now I'm at the stage I don't know how to fix it.
K: How about trying tattoos?
N: Ah, definitely no! Even if it's just tattoo stickers you need to think about it first! [TN: ==;;;; Yes dad]
K: Like do a native American symbol like Johnny Depp~
N: Ah, definitely no! Please support Japanese culture!
K: Then, how about writing the words "Baseball" or something?
N: That's stupid! No! Rejected! Then, what does Ueda think?
U: Me, I haven't really changed?
K: Ueda totally hasn't changed. That hairstyle. How many years has it been. Unless it's because it's implanted hair? [TN: Kame...making that sort of jokes about Ueda...=0=;;;;;]
TJ: Ahahaha, now you mention it, it really hasn't changed.
N: Why are you sticking with the current hairstyle?
U: Because it's comparatively normal.
K: I think not only Ueda's hairstyle, but his general appearance really hasn't changed at all.
N: You mean he hasn't aged?
K: Yep, that's amazing!
U: That's probably because fatigue and exhaustion have no bearing on my life!
K: Are there any secrets to overcoming exhaustion?
U: Umm...it's to not do much work!
N: Go do work! GO DO WORK PROPERLY!
U: I meant that whether it's the body or the mind, don't stress yourself out too much.
TJ: In the end you're just a lazy bum~
K: But really, the secret to not aging must be the frequent exercise right?
N: In reality, even Ueda's blood and stuff is really clean right?
TK: Feels like very clean and clear blood flows in you. If you check my blood, it will probably look like gelatin......
N: Sticky and thick huh.
TK: Phlat~ Phlat~ Phlat~ [TN: Sound of something sticky and thick dripping]
K: Then, what sort of hairstyle is Nakamaru after?
N: What should I do?
K: I say, why not try dyeing your hair to brown like before?
N: I'll pass on brown hair...
TK: How about street punk style? Punk Nakamaru Yuichi.
N: Before I went and dyed my hair gold because of the sense of obligation I felt at being a Johnny's idol.
TJ: So you were forcing yourself all along.
N: Yes, I forced myself.
K: Didn't you get your ears pierced?
N: That was forcing myself even more......
K: And you tried the cap-wearing backpacker style.
N: I really liked backpacks back then.
TJ: I think Nakamaru is best as he is right now.
U: Because this image feels very reliable.
N: Then I'll just stay this way.
TJ: Since no one's throwing the topic my way, I'll just speak up. I'm the one who changes hairstyle most frequently right.
K: Is it to do with your fluctuating mood?
TJ: Really? But if I get too stressed, I might suddenly think I need to change my image, and suddenly change to golden-haired!
N: Golden-haired......
TJ: For the concerts this time I'll just keep this style. If I had to say why, it's because the hairstyle on the uchiwas off-stage is too different to the hairstyle I have onstage.
U: ACHOO! AH-AH-ACHOO! (Why three times...)
K: I didn't hear, why was it?
TJ: Because....
U: ACHOO! (For real...)
N: Er......then, there's a question from Myojo. "Are there any rules or similar within KAT-TUN?" I don't think so? A long time ago there was a rule "If you're losing your temper raise your right hand".
TJ: There was there was.
TK: Wasn't it left hand?
U: That was when it was getting to "danger zone" wasn't it?
TJ: But if you really lose your temper there's no time to raise your hand right. For Nakamaru, he loses his temper as soon as I start speaking.......
N: Well I can't help that sort of thing.
TJ: If you don't raise your hand earlier then I wouldn't know.
K: Us, we always bully Nakamaru. If we were to use fireworks as an analogy, it's because we already pulled the fuse out and left it in the open, and then the unknowing Taguchi will start speaking at his leisure, so even if it's just one sentence it can light Nakamaru's fuse.
N: That sort of thing happened quite a few times.
K: In the beginning Taguchi does not participate in the pulling out of the fuse, when he feels things aren't going well he definitely won't join us. He will observe first, and once he feels that it would be okay for him to join, he will join in, and then Nakamaru explodes.
N: Everyone knows where each other's limit is at
U: Really? The only one I don't know is Nakamaru's [TN: Tis love terror that prevents him losing it at you =P]
TJ: Nakamaru only loses his temper at me
N: That's because you piss people off
TK: I agree, Taguchi playing a game pisses me off
U: That time when he's playing "Nintendo Super Smash Brothers" in Imperial Garden Theatre, right!
TK: Taguchi kept yelling "DIEEEEE!!!!!" and other things, I almost wanted to chuck a plastic bottle at him.
U: Who was it? Because Taguchi stressed him out too much he flipped a table?
TK: Ah, it's me it's me.
TJ: Really? I had no idea~ But these days when I'm playing games aren't I normal?
K: Speaking of that, that time Nakamaru got so stressed out by Taguchi that he didn't even notice he had stepped on the natto on the carpet in the resting room, and went on stage just like that. When he was dancing, gee, you could pull threads of natto out of that stickiness, and everywhere Nakamaru danced there was natto. This guy, left natto in the historical Imperial Garden Theatre.
TK: It became an incident
N: The Natto Incident......
U: But as for Kame, it's very easy to know when he's going to lose it, he always starts by taking a deep breath
TK: Yep yep.
U: And then once he crosses his legs and starts shaking it, it's gotten really bad. As for Koki, it's easy to tell just from the atmosphere.
TK: In other words, my feelings are all written on my face, it's very easy to understand.
K: Even though Ueda rarely loses his temper, but I know, his feet will become very restless. (As he speaks, he mimics Ueda trembling and stamping the ground)
N: Yep!
K: And then he starts running fingers through his hair.
TJ: Come come come, if we get to that stage, everyone raise their left hand. Everyone should cooperate with me a bit more, gee!
N: Even though now we won't fight any more, we used to. Even onstage we would, for example at Imperial Garden Theatre, before the second scene began we'd say "Sorry about just then".
TJ: Actually speaking of which the worst part is in the end when we take the bow, we need to hold hands and say "We are KAT-TUN" right, if the person standing next to you is the one you just had a fight with, it's very awkward. But it seems like every time we hold hands, everything gets written off.
TK: Because we're not forward enough to hold hands, we'd grab the other person's wrist.
U: Or touch lightly.
K: We used to always get annoyed for no apparent reason
N: It seems like even if we're sitting on one side doing nothing we'd get annoyed
TK: Especially Taguchi! (LOL)
TJ: Eh~ me again? Then next time I'll really lose my temper at you.
N: Lose your temper then.
K: We'll lose it right back at you.
TK: You end up getting other people losing their tempers.
U: We should make Taguchi understand the feeling of awkwardness.
TJ: Then I'll make everyone lose their tempers when everyone's nearly forgotten how to lose their tempers. (No bad intentions)
Whew..that was looooooong ||||||||Orz
