Arioka: Providing security and insecurity huh… Yuto’s security is when he appears on variety shows, displaying his private life like showing photos of his hobbies, isn’t it?
Yuto: Ah, I do.
Arioka: During such times, Yuto has many hobbies and the things he does are always so fashionable. When I look at them, I feel safe too. I feel like I can say proudly, “Our Nakajima is so awesome right?” (laugh)
Hikaru: That’s true. His hobbies are cameras, drums etc. Nothing that makes you feel worrisome.
Arioka: On the other hand, if we are requested to do the same thing, there will definitely be pressure (laugh)
Hikaru: For me, when I feel secure and think that “It’s great that Yuto is here”, is when we have to smell something horrible.
Yuto and Arioka: Ahhhhh (agreeing)
Yuto: I am a brave guy when it comes to such situations.
Hikaru: So it is like I am someone who can’t do it at all.
Arioka: Hikaru-kun is pretty useless when it comes to such things.
Hikaru: Yeah. Even before smelling, I start to feel like puking. I am an idol who has shown this side of myself countless times on television though (laugh)
Arioka: We have already seen it countless times (laugh). Previously when Keito had to smell something horrible for a punishment game, Yuto was totally cool about it and volunteered himself.
Hikaru: Besides, Yuto’s awesome part is he does not even react like “It stinks!” but he totally conveys the details of the smell as if giving a report on food (laugh)
Yuto: Ahh! Like “It smells like a car servicing factory”?
Hikaru: Yes. When you say that, I am able to somehow imagine and my courage starts to flow.
Yuto: To think that I am useful to humans in such a way (laugh)
Hikaru: Also, you help us to taste food too.
Yuto: Recently everyone has found out that I am cool with such situations, and when it is needed, everyone becomes like “Oi, Yuto, go!” (laugh)
Arioka: Were you probably the butler or food taster for an emperor in your previous life? (laugh) A part of Yuto that makes you worry, is how he is too good at impersonating the staff.
Yuto: Eh? You worry about that?
Arioka: I love them so I often make requests. But when that staff is near me, I start to become fearful (laugh)
Hikaru: Do that! That staff from that television station.
Yuto: Okay! (and starts impersonating)
Arioka and Hikaru: It was so similar~~~~!!
Yuto: Then frowning between the eyebrows while straightening his fringe is Yama’s impersonation (tries impersonating)
Arioka: You can really grasp a person’s traits!
Yuto: Next, moving his hands and over reacting while trying to explain about something, Yama’s impersonation (does the impersonation)
Hikaru: I know that!
(Interviewer’s note: Yamada shows up and says “What are you doing!”)
Arioka: See? I was referring to such a situation (laugh)
Yuto: Alright. From now on, I will control my impersonations when the person is nearby.
Arioka: But it is not like the impersonation is making a fool out of somebody or showing no respect, so I think it is totally fine though.
Yuto: Yup. Impersonating someone means I have love for that person. Next, Hika’s security! For me, I feel it when the members tease him on shows. But during such times, Hika still puts on a brave smile. That really makes me feel secure!
Arioka: I guess he is used to such situations after all. That is secure but he is still a person who makes you worry alot (laugh)
Hikaru: Eh, for example?
Arioka: When he doesnt know many of the headline news.
Yuto: Ah, I have seen such a situation where Dai-chan says “Please, just go and read the top headlines of the internet news”!
Arioka: On variety shows, we do talk about such things right? And during such times, he just spaces out.
Hikaru: But as what Dai-chan told me, recently I have started to look at the trending internet news. So I have started to know what everyone is talking about too (laugh)
Yuto: For me, like just now how he is bad in smelling, he is like so refined. I am not able to force such a Hikaru-kun to do such a thing (laugh)
Hikaru: Ahahaha. Am I such a person?
Yuto: Yes. Somehow a weak image.
Hikaru: I don’t think so though. But aren’t there some days where you have to be on variety shows the entire day, and smile for the whole day?
Arioka: Yeah~ Ah~ days where you think “I have smiled so much I am so tired” right?
Hikaru: Yup. On such days I go home and it becomes like"Ah,, it was so fun~~ (puking sound). I smiled so much!! (puking sound)“
Arioka and Yuto: Ehhh, whats that about~~~~!
Yuto: It seems like the price you pay for enjoying is too huge! (laugh)
Hikaru: That’s right~ Seems like I am someone who cannot smile too much.
Yuto: That feels even more worrisome (laugh). You are weak at injections too. I am often after Hikaru-kun every year, but his face after taking an injection is like "This is the end of the world” (laugh)
Arioka: You are not a kindergarten kid. Try making yourself stronger in certain aspects?
Hikaru: Okay, I will try hard! Feeling safe towards Dai-chan is the last part of Hirunandesu, when he has to sum up everything in 3 seconds! At first it was worrying but recently he has learnt to make it funny, so I can watch it while feeling secure.
Yuto: Did you practise?
Arioka: Nope, I just stopped thinking.
Hikaru: (getting excited) Yes, that’s it! It’s that!! It’s the spirit of Bruce Lee!
Arioka and Hikaru: Don’t think. Feel.
Yuto: Your voices match completely (laugh)
Arioka: At the end, the floor director always writes “xx-san, please say the ending speech” on the paper. And sometimes my name is written there. I start to panic and think “Uwah, what should I do! What should I say…!” And when that happens, no one gets my joke as always (laugh) When Nanbara-san sees that, he tries something from another direction, and asks me to do something.
Hikaru: Like “Okay, Dai-chan. Do a gag to end this show” (laugh)
Yuto: Eh~~ serious?!
Arioka: Yes. That is why now I don’t prepare anything, and I just wait for someone to throw it to me.
Hikaru: I think it is great how you have managed to produce results.
Yuto: That’s right. It is a strong weapon for the group if someone in the group is strong in this aspect. And also everytime I have something interesting to share, I will think “I will tell this to Dai-chan”. Because Dai-chan will really laugh as if it is very interesting. I trust his reactions (laugh)
Arioka: Oh~ that makes me happy!
Yuto: But on the other hand, he is blunt when it comes to conversations which he has no interest in. He plays with his smartphone in one hand while giving you replies like “Hmm.” That’s like a totally different person altogether (laugh)
Hikaru: Even if it is not Yuto, anyone can impersonate such a Dai-chan too right? (Pretending to play with a phone in one hand and look very uninterested) Ehh, hmm, oh is that so? Oh..
Arioka: Eh, am I so bad?
Yuto: Impersonations are basically a little exaggerated (laugh). But such a Dai-chan changes on the next topic and says “Really?! That’s a lie right?! That’s so funny!!” That’s really unbeatable (laugh)
Arioka: I see~ So everyone who is reading this, from now on please call me “The devil guy, Arioka” (laugh)
