Potato April 2008 NEWS Scans
Shigeaki Kato
Note: He also mentions that he wants a jellyfish on Sakidori vegas (Feb.28, 2008)
S
NEWS's black/dark feeling music
S=Sun "Taiyou no Namida" is NEWS's black/dark feeling tune. Black/dark on the other hand can be negative, but of the "GIRAGIRA" feeling of the sun, it's energetic. It was the first time in Tokyo Dome, however, I was angry (laugh). Furthermore, I'd like to have more practice.
P
Small peace to big peace
P=Peace Peace should be considered. I want to say something about peace. For example, at a warm time, talking together or something, settling a solution..This is my kind of peace. Small peace can certainly turn into big peace, because they are connected. Therefore lately, for the tour, we made eco-bags.
R
I want to become a person who responses quickly.
R=Response A person who responds quickly is good. In conversation, a pawn and response would be returned。Like, Nishikido-kun is a person who quickly responds. I want to be like someone who is a fool and a space case. (I think, the reference is to Kei-chan) I went to watch Murakami-kun and Subaru-kun on stage, their two responding abilities are extremely good.
I
Invitations to parties make me happy!
I＝Invitation I want an invitation to something! For example, an invitation to a party will make me happy. Because it's an invitation. I invite people numerous times, but I want people to come. Birthday parties and programs overlap each other. Things like that at the time...I go and try to make an effort, but not to meet people.
N
Japanese people say "No" during test period
N=No I say "no" to Japanese people. (laugh) For example, during the test, a friend tempts you, but nonetheless you say "No". It's fun to help them. Moreover, to choose fun, I will fail. So, don't just say "No" to Japanese people. It's necessary.
G
What I want now...
A small Jellyfish!
G=Get Being a pet owner, first pet being a jellyfish, it seems good to keep, but also difficult. In addition, owls or green iguana, and ( ) are small compared to a monkey. You would need to consider the seasons, their food, and the love needed to raise them. Eventually, my original intention to get a jellyfish is best.
Ryo Nishikido
F
I want my muscles to grow fatter
F=Fat I want to become fat! Presently, I am like a think line? (or something along those lines) Therefore, trying my best at the bench press machine that I bought, which can be used for a whole lifetime in my house to be used. Because of that, muscles appear. Muscles appearing＝growing fatWith muscles appearing, one's body becomes heavier. I need to do a lot of work with bench press when I return home!
I
I want to become a person with many ideas for the sake of work.
I=Idea I want to have many ideas. Things such as for work, I am human, therefore, various things can be drawn and carried out. For example, things such as humans putting feelings into words. And, to talk about movies and books. I think it is important to gather one's self and improve these patterns.
E
7 towels needed to be washed, and couldn't be dried. Weird!
E=etc. About overflowing speech. Yesterday, someone did this. about 7 towels, needed to be washed, and weren't able to be dry. Weird! I went outside to air dry them, because 7 would be too much for the dryer. Maybe 4 or 5 would be alright, etc. For example, a car, etc. Amazing speed can be revealed in a car, like to a toll booth's etc. (Yeah, I'm a little confused about why he brought up a car...)
S
I think Yamapi's movie is flowing and happy!
S＝Sun Previous work has an oriental melody. With Yamapi singing the song, at the end, I think the song is happy. Before getting the CD, you should go to Karaoke to sing the song, however, to try it the first time. During karoke, the first phrase, you should emphasize and lengthen the "Da" in "Namida"
T
Everday, I want my feeling of victory to continue
T=Target My target concerns speech. Nishikido Ryo's life and glory can't help to reach the target. If one were to speak of somebody, yesterday...me. (laugh). Small things like a bench press, yesterday I lifted 0.2kg. Constantly yesterday, I won, no matter how useless it may seem.
A
Cutting the inside of the yellow is delicious!
A＝Apple There are accelerators and people that lose their way, but then theres apples. I love apples! (he says sukiyanen XD) Apples are something you can't say no to. (laugh) So naturally, of all the fruits, I like apple best. Because of tasty apples, ther are really tasty foods. When time to cut, the inside is really yellow. Mom likes to say to eat a lot of them.
Tomohisa Yamashita
S
Because of liking the song, Kurosagi and the music came together.
S=Sun I have to come to like the song "Taiyou no Namida". For the first time, immediately the song became the end roll. Singing it at the concert gave a good feeling. There is doubt in the melody of the lyrics. For Kurosagi, the main character's mind, I think it comes together through the song.
P
Only 30 minutes of surfing in the sea in Hawaii (AH! He mentioned this on Tokyo friend park too XD)
P=Play Last time I went for work to Hawaii, I was only able to surf for 30 minutes. It's a small amount of time, but being able to ride a little was good. 6:30 in the evening to about 7, I went in, and saw the setting sun. I can feel the earth's rhythm as I surf. After this, when it becomes warm, I want to go again!
R
For my relaxing time, I sleep
R=Relax My number one thing to do when relaxing, when I get home from work is sleep.Also, music and watching movies. Yesterday, I watched one. afterwards, I read over the script while writing a song on my guitar. At last, for my relaxing time, I sleep. I became an adult. (laugh)
I
There is an important balance between work and play!
I=Important There is an important balance between work and play. Because there are 365 days always for work, ther is not anymore willingness. Previously, I had a 3 month break, taking shape of an older brother, but, no more energy and physical strength. With friends, no more energy to play anymore. On a day off, friends come to play and is motivation to keep going.
N
I think natural is best.
N=Natural I love nature!I want to see magnificent nature like paradise, the closest island is New Caledonia (sp?). I want to go and see. There are many different kinds of worlds I'd like to see. Nature is human's best example of natural. If the person I like could understand my feelings, the nature of myself, I'd like to see and receive that because it's important.
G
My grandma's face is small
G=Grandparents Even now, I call my grandpa and grandma "jii" and "baa”. Baa's face is (hanpana) and small. (laugh) When I was small, baa would make breakfast. Light butter and toast. Also, baa's other asian cooking is delicious! Jii makes fried soba.
Yuya Tegoshi
NOTE: I had trouble reading his, because a lot of the kanji on the page were hard to read from the scan.
S
Singing the song, I want to see it become the top (or something along those lines)
S=Sun "Weeeek" everyone sang with feeling, however, "Taiyou no Namida" deciding, to listen to and dance to the song, is what I want to see. This song is an amazing song divided with every person, the tone color quickly changes into something interesting. Singing this song at karaoke, please become completely involved into the song's "GIRAGIRA" points. (energetic points, I believe) (laugh)
P
A princess image like this is ideal
P= Princess A princess. A princess image like this is ideal, such as being there cutely. That's what I want. Now, with the change of season, together, to go cherry blossom viewing is good right? Presently, it's not that cold yet, things where the "heart becomes warm" kind of events are good.
R
Billiards。To carry on to the end of something is good!
R=Reflesh （I'm assuming it's a typo, and should say 'refresh' instead of 'reflesh') When I stand there playing, it's refreshing. This time, I tried billiards.For the first time, with friends I went, they taught me to play and had complete victory! (laugh) Three days later, with difernt friends I went, that person won. I need to face that person again.
I
This year, I want to go snowboarding.
I=Ice I want to go snowboarding when I'm not busy. In 1st grade, in elementary school, I went skiing for the first time, but I love snowboarding! Curbs and jumps, the feeling of going flying feels good. Now, with my frends, we plan to go. If it can be done, we want to stay over night. But, to go by myself would be depressing. (laugh)
N
I can't survive without my friends.
N=Necessary When I stand, and "this thing I can't survive without" is said, it would be friends. For me, I have very few friends. But if they weren't there, I can't survive! Friends are understanding. I become god-like when it comes to being supportive.
G
Everyday, at the gym, Futsal (which is indoor football/soccer) moves my body
G=Goal Tomorrow, and the day after, it's futsal! Lately, with a few friends, we are able to do this. Here, futsal is the only thing we can do, for me. And to go to the gym, need to move the body. Now, super body. (laugh) Maybe, now, I will be able to do a 10 hour concert.
Takahisa Masuda
NOTE: XD I just wanted to make a note....saying, that when I read the first part of Massu's..I just started laughing. Who thinks "F", and then "Furniture"? XD Anywho, onto the translation...
F
I want to change the interior inside the house.
F=Furniture The furniture in my room is a bed and a desk. My grandma bought the bed. Because the bed is "KOROKORO" (not very good any more) it needs to be replaced. It appears to be garbage, because it's not very good. All the furniture in my house is old, and very soon will break. (laugh) Therefore, I want to replace all the furniture.
I
The style of fashion I like has increased!
I=Interest The style of fashion I like has increased. I like "60 years" or "old feelings" for fashion, but I also like street feelings. Recently, I only where jeans. However, I think it gives off a good feeling. Bottom is simple SUKINII denim, pants that show plumpness.
E
I love to eat! Asapargus is delcious.
E=Eat I love to eat! (laugh) The food I like s asparagus. One time, I ate asparagus raw. Since then, the charm of it increased. I also think meat and griled fish is good. Pasta is super delicious!
S
I like the melody line of the song
S=Sun I like the overall melody of "Taiyou no Namida". I think you can always hear the feelings in the melody. It's been a long time since NEWS was able to express these types of feelings in a song. As advice for karaoke, A melody and B melody are sung gently. But, the high point of the song, I think, is the exaggerated singing.
T
I want to travel with my friends. Egypt would be good!
T=Trip With my friends, I want to travel. Almost 21, would we not be able to go on a trip? But, I want to travel to places as such. I want to go to an onsen, or a snowboard trip. I really want to go somewhere overseas. I want to see the pyramids. If possible, I want to slowly go and see.
A
At the middle of the concert, it becomes hard to breath, but need to stand firm.
A=Air I lie to see the outside. The feeling of the air, and the world, gives a certain good feeling. (laugh) After the concert, necessary oxygen is cut off. Therefore, lots of times, I ned to buy lots of water to drink. But for Shige, the oxygen in his lungs can't get in, and that's important to think about. I also worry about this. However, the thing to do is drink water.

The futon is good for the lower back.
F=Futon My futon. Everyday I lay out the futon and go to bed on it, on the tatami mats. The sheets are light brown and king-sized.I used to always sleep on a bed (one with frames), but now I go to bed on a futon, which is good. オススメ！It is better for the posture of the lower back, and turning over while sleeping in bed, so I don't fall off the bed.
NOTE: オススメ！ I'm not sure what he's trying to say. I know musume is daughter, but osusume, i've got no idea...
I
Together with Shige, we went to a shop that sold delicious Ikura (salmon roe)
I=Ikura Recently, I ate Ikura. Until now, I haven't eaten much. But after this, I don't have self-confidence while eating. With Shige, we went to eat salmon roe at a sushi store. ZENSAI (I'm not sure what it's referring to....) appeared, and were very sweet. The Ikura's uniqueness is a small feeling inside. But things like this are good!
E
I love Enoki! There's a lot of things you can cok with it
E=Enoki I really love enoki! Cooked in water, using foil, wind butter and place it on it. In winter, because it's this season, its something you have to put in. Also, you should request for a separate item of cookery along with it. SHAKI SHAKI to the food texture, add vinger, and it's good!
S
Hearing from the movie theater makes me really happy!
S=Sun The start of a new song! It's exaggerated. Sing it freely at karaoke! The emotion in the recording is strongly put in, weakly taken care of, the high point of the song is exaggerated. Don't cut off the place of pain and dedication. I want the image of "Kurosagi: The movie" to become an atmosphere to be different in the movie theater.
T
Tegoshi is a lonely, naughty boy
T=Tegoshi Recently, Tegoshi has good meaning in being strict. Tegoshi's nonsense increases every minute. At the time of the tour, I remember our crossing paths. But, Tegoshi's swing is hard, he has physical strength and could break something. Sooner or later, he'l find his target. In conclusion, Tegoshi is a lonely, naughty boy.
A
I bought a new jacket with a team's logo, which is the same as Yamapi's!
A=Atarashii I bought a new thing, a jacket with a team's logo. I wore it, and Yamapi said he saw me wearing it. Next thing you know, he asked me if he could take a picture with his phone, and asked me where I bought it. Then, after, Yamapi called saying, he bought the same. (laugh) The fact that we have something the same makes me happy.
----
I haven't gotten a chance to translate the rest of them. I'm not sure whether I will or not. Translating stuff is just getting my mind off of something else...so, we'll see if I end up doing them or not. I'm not really sure why I did Shige first either...usually I start everything off with Yamapi. XD
EDIT: Yup, pretty much done. ^^" Just Kei-chan left.
RE-EDIT: Hai! DEKITA! Enjoy!
