Duet 2010.10 - NEWS & Questions from fans
[Ryo]
1. How's your mood right now?
Sleepy. I wanna sleep. Recently I sleep too little...
2. What do you think of girls that are quite tall like you? Please, tell us your heigh Ryo-chan!
Since it's about girls I care a little about this matter. I'd want a girl a little shorter than me but if it's over 10 cm it may be kinda bothersome too (lol). My heigh is 169,9 cm. I measured it recently so it's very accurate.
3. What is the most important object in your room?
The guitars. I have 15 of them. I love them at the same degree but if there would be a fire I couldn't save every one so I would take with me the one I bought for first.
4. What is your best in domestic works?
Laundry. And then cooking. I'm really helpless with the cleanings. I'm very obsessed with laundry, always in the same way right until the drier machine. I quite never cook because I'm busy, my fridge is full of pineapple cans I bought (lol).
5. Do you always decide your hairstyle by yourself?
I go to the hairstyler and say: "I want to trim them a little", I'm very approximate. Then while he's cutting them I talk with him to decide. When I'll end the shootings for the drama I want to cut them.
6. I don't see you and Masuda-kun talking that much, do you do that sometimes? What kind of conversation do you have? If you don't, about what would you like to talk with him?
Maybe you're right, we don't talk too much (lol). The ones I talk the most are Yamapi and then Shige, we call each other sometimes. I also asked him about cameras. Ok, I'll try to talk with Masuda-kun!! I'd ask him: "Where do you usually go in your free time?"
7. Which is the dessert you'd like to make for a girl?
Pudding of course! I also like the Chocolat Gateau so it'd be nice too.
8. Which is an ability you'd like to have?
Welding. Not because I want to weld something but being able to work with iron is very manly, isn't it kakkoi!?
[ROTFL he's crazy XD]
9. Do you believe in fortune telling?
If I can be honest, I really don't care. But of course if I wake up and see that my sign is the number one of the day I'm a little happy.
10. How many inches has your TV?
I don't have a TV at home but a projector. For this I don't know anything about inches, maybe it's around 100?
11. Do you have a nice calligraphy?
If I write seriously it's very pretty. I can write the characters of my name in a very wonderful way. When I was little writing "Nishikido" was difficult so I exercised a lot to write it.
12. What is the secret of Ryo-chan's beautiful and kind voice?
There's no secret~ On the contrary, I'd like my voice to be more and more nice.
13. What are the places where you'd like to have a date?
Parents' home. If I find an important person I'd like to bring her to meet my family.
14. What is your favourite food?
Shougayaki!
15. What is the thing you have absolutely to bring with you for a travel abroad?
The notebook, the passport and courage. I love to walk alone in a foreigner place but I always feel a little unconfortable too. For this courage is necessary!
16. Is it true that NEWS will have concerts!?
18~20 September in Osaka. 25~28 September in Tokyo!!
17. What kind of kid were you?
A brat! I always made my brothers mad and then I escaped from them (lol).
18. Please, make a question to Kato-kun!
19. "Genki?"
[Shige]
Yup, I'm fine. Btw, lately I met him! Some time ago he called me asking: "Tell me about cameras" so I told him I would do some researches. He answered teasing me: "Are you sure you're really a photographer~?" (lol).
[Ihihihihih]
20. When you sing sad songs like "Sakura Girl" do you feel heart-broken like the feelings of the song?
More than experiencing the same feelings I imagine the whole world evoked by the song. I hope that like this the song can reach the hearts of the listeners!
21. Which is the female fashion style you find cool?
I think that people who use seasons based colors and matching accessories are cool.
22. When will you release the main song of the drama "Troubleman"!?
It'll be in our album "LIVE"!
23. Are you taking some lessons?
A little, I go to fish with Ohno Sensei from Arashi (lol). When I was little I took piano lessons and I practiced Shorinji Kempo. I loved that sport but when I moved I didn't find a new gym so I had to quit it.
24. What is your special dish?
Generally, fish dishes. I have big confidence in my rice with sea breams. Well, it's really easy to do though (lol).
25. When you were a kid did you have a note for your expences?
I didn't. My mom told me to have one some times but I got tired after one week.
26. If you could reborn what would you like to be?
No, "myself" it's ok I guess.
27. I love NEWS. Expecially Kato-kun, Masuda-kun and Tegoshi-kun. What are your common points?
Ehh, I guess our only common point is that we've quite the same age? Me and Tegoshi or me and Massu go out together sometimes but I think we never went out in 3...Well, thinking to it I guess we could go anywhere...in the end I'd be the one who would have to match their moves (lol).
28. If you could express yourself with a single kanji, what would it be? I'm "新" (=new)!
"喉" (=throat). I worked hard during the recordings and I want to practice more right until the concerts!
29. What is the thing you'd like to be spoiled to right now?
I want to be able to sleep 8 hours at day <3
30. What is the thing that scares you the most?
Horror movies. Lately Maruyama-kun recommended me a horror movie and borrowed me the DVD...during the scary scenes I used the fast-forward... (bitter smile).
31. Do you ever take pics with your phone?
Sometimes. For example I did when I went out to dinner with Massu, because out of tiredness he fell asleep on the table. I shoot a pic of his sleeping face.
[Wanna see!!]
32. In the last DVD we saw that you drop the mike stand, tell us if something else like that happened!
It happened ne~ (lol). Things like that happen a lot. For ex. changing quickly clothes in the backstage, I mistaked and wore somebody else's clothes. Like: "Eh those pants are short...Ah those are Massu's!" (lol)
33. Are there rules inside NEWS?
There aren't rules we made purposely but there are some kind of "promises" during the concerts. Like the order to take showers. Me and Koyama are the fastest one for example (lol).
34. Which members you think would be the most perfect boyfriend?
Yamashita-kun. He's so kind. He's always wearing cool outfits but he's also able to show sudden smiles like the ones of a kid. This kind of gap can make every girls' heart to beat fast...that's what I thought last time we went out to dinner together.
[I personally went KYAAAH to this answer!! *____*]
35. Please, make a question to Koyama-kun!
36. "What did you eat yesterday night?"
[Koyama]
Yakiniku (and he says a lot of meat's types @_@). Then I asked for Bibinbab and egg soup. For dessert I had soy icecream.
37. What kind of clothes would you like for the concerts?
Clothes that match with every members' character and with the images of the songs. This time we want to match all together too.
38. What do you want right now?
Muscles. Expecially pectorals! I'm training for them but they aren't growing too much...maybe I have to do more weights.
[He's obsessed by muscles @_@]
39. You talk frequently about trips, in one year how many trips do you have? Which is the country you'd like to visit?
I think my average is 2 trips in one year. I'd like to go to Maldives!
40. When you'll go home what will you do?
Many things~ (lol). I'll watch NEWS ZERO and take a bath. Until I won't go to sleep I'll study or watch a movie. If I'm late I'll go to sleep around 3 o'clock so if I have time I'll do something else.
41. What would you like to try to do? Me and my friends right now are studying Korean too!
Shodou! (=Calligraphy). I like people who can write nicely. I'd like to try to write with the brush. To study Korean watch the dramas you like in Korean, it's a perfect way to become good. I did it watching them with japanese voices but with subs in Hangul, trying to read it a lot. If there was a conversation I liked I took notes of it and then I tried to repeat it. there are many ways, ganbatte!
42. When do you think you're a real adult?
When I became able to exchange thoughts and determinations with people. Before I couldn't do anything but answer "I see" during any conversation but now I'm able to express my ideas and opinions very well.
43. A good action you did recently?
I was in a book shop and there were magazines with Yamapi and Ryo-chan in the cover, I set them nicely standing up!
[I would totally do that too XDD Koyama is such a fanboy!]
44. Which is your favourite holiday?
The last of the year. Because you can do your propositions for the next year and walk facing the future, you can have a new start with new feelings.
45. Do you remember some latest dream?
Some time ago I fell asleep watching the Arashi's DVD and I dreamt Sho-kun! We were in a bright white room and we were talking about something but I don't remember the contents.
46. Which is the thing you're most confident about?
NEWS' activities. Our powers all together can be a really scary thing!
47. Koyama working hard at "News every." is really cool. What made you happy to be in that show?
The fact that I widened my knowledge. Then, I understood better the country in which we live. I learnt many things by people living in different locations, some conversations really moved me!
48. Which is your favourite sport?
Baseball I guess. I love every sport. Right now I'm doing only muscles training though (lol)
49. Did NEWS ever go to trip together, to onsen for example?
We go out to eat but we never went to the onsen together. I think it'd be funny~ If we'll ever go to a trip together Shige who's always concerned with rooms would end to turn around everywhere (lol)
50. Did you feel like "I lost" recently?
I wanted to go to the gym but I lost to the sleep demon...The next day I took my revenge.
51. Please, make a question to Tegoshi-kun!
52. "Why are you that much positive? Are you ever negative?"
[Tegoshi]
Because I'm a B-type! (lol) But when I'm not able to play soccer I feel down a lot. Though I'm a B-type...
53. Tegoshi-kun, why are you so cute?
Ehh... (blush). I never realized that I'm cute (lol). No matter what I do I always try to do it having fun and putting my heart in it, maybe it's because of this kind of smile? For example, I have the confidence that I could entertain kids at the park! Maybe what you see is this feeling of wanting to entertain people.
[Don't believe a single word he says XDDD]
54. What's your point when you change hairstyle?
I always let the hairstyler to do anything he wants. I personally asked for this hairstyle this time because it's easy to set and it can change according to work.
[We noticed that =__=]
55. How could you became so good at singing? Were you like this since the beginning?
I don't know if I were good at it since the beginning or not. I've always been praised when I sang at karaoke and I started to love singing more and more...Then I liked to imitate my favourite singers and I improved a little. If you want to be a master of harmony I recommend you to sing Tegomasu's songs. We have a lot of songs with a pretty harmonic line.
56. Tegoshi-kun when did you start to love soccer? Why?
'93, during the J-ring! When I was little, I wanted to be like the pitcher of Japan team Ramos Rui, he was cool. Then I was captured by soccer.
57. I want to be like Tegoshi-kun. Why are you so cool?
Is this reader a guy? I'm so happy that a guy thinks such things about me~ Maybe it's because I don't forget to be always grateful. I think that the coolness of a man is the will to protect the important things in life!
[This is the "praise Tegoshi" interview XD]
58. I guess you visited the whole country with the tours, what kind of delicious dishes did you eat?
Everywhere I went there was something delicious! The latest one was the Mizutaki pan. It's a simple dish but it's super good! I was so moved that I took a pic of the pan (lol).
59. What's the story behind the recording of LIVE album?
It's always the same, my recordings take very little time! I get an OK in only one try, I quite never have to adjust my records. I have then a lot of fun discussing about the arrange with the staff.
[So confident ><]
60. Which is your favourite moment during a concert?
When everything become one. When I shake my arms to the public and I feel the voices of the fans calling me more and more loud, it's so beautiful that it's a problem!
61. Are you the Love at 1st sight-type?
I am~ Last day too, I was in the pet shop and I fell in love with a teacup puddle of 2 months, she had a name tag with a scull!
62. The thing that made you most happy lately?
The victory of Japan team agains Camerun during the World Cup.
63. The sport in which you're not good?
Basket. In soccer you can knock into the opponent and steal the ball but if you do that in basket you get a punishment, right? That must be stressing... (lol)
64. Do you know the cooking's "Sa-shi-su-se-so" (=ABC)?
Sure! Sa->Satou (Sugar) - Shi->Shio (Salt) - Su->Osu (Vinegar) - Se->Senzai (Detergent) - So->Soosu (Sauce). The detergent is there because it's important to wash everything after you cook! (lol)
[Random XD]
65. Your latest luxury?
I ordered a high-class curry that can cost also 1000 yen for portion. It was when I went out with 3 of my friends.
66. Do you usually wake up well?
I wake up in a blink. But if there is somebody to wake me up, like my mom, I never want to wake up... (lol). I guess I'm spoiled.
67. Please, make a question to Masuda-kun!
68. "Where do you buy clothes?"
[Massu]
Eh Tegoshi showed some kind of interest in my clothes!? I'm so happy~ Let me see, for example if I see something I like in a magazine I go to search it. I go around a lot of shops. Want to come with me next time? Really?
[ihihihih happy Massu XDD]
69. I'd like to see Massu swimming in pool. Where can I do it?
You can do it in the drama "Kareinaru Spy" or in last year 24hTV. I'm waiting for new occasions to swim!
[Fortunately I noticed that I typed "poo" instead of "pool" before posting XDD]
70. Which is the dish you'd like a girl to cook for you?
Maybe Beef curry. The ingredients are few but the meat is so good. But I would be happy with anything if she's cooking only for me.
71. How much did you exercised to play keyboards during Tegomasu tour?
A lot during rehearsal. Well, I did many mistakes too but I don't worry about it, don't worry (lol).
72. How would you describe your character in a word?
"My pace". I'm not good at matching with other people and I really don't like to do it.
73. If you had a "special move" what would it be and how would you call it?
The name "Jitan" (=Shortening of time). I'd scream "Ranger!" and I'd produce fire in my hand's palm to cook eggs (lol). The temperature of fire would be of course perfect so that I could save 10 minutes each morning!
74. What is your favourite and your hated food?
There's nothing I hate. The favourite, since everybody know about gyoza I'll say Yakitori. I love it.
75. What do you want to eat tonight?
Yakitori. Now that I talked about it I want to eat it (lol). Momoniku, shiitake's salt and ichou are the must.
76. Do you like kids?
I like kids who are attached. Last day there was a kid with whom I worked, we were together but he never showed any interest in me. At the very last he came to sit on my knees and I spoiled him. I asked "Are you a tsundere?"...
77. Please, give the girls a fashion advice!
A shirt one piece and leggings combination is very cute!
78. Babanuki or memory (2 card games), in which you're better?
Babanuki because I'm very lucky. I'm not good in games that requires some strategy.
79. In the July issue you wore black clothes, you were so cool! I went dokidoki!
Well, I went dokidoki just now more than you. Because today too I'm wearing a black t-shirt!
80. What do you do in your day off? Basically I'm not doing anything, I'm so unbusy.
I'm unbusy too (lol). In my day off I watch TV at home or I read fashion magazines. If it's about the latest CMs or fashion I could go on talking forever.
81. When you go to karaoke you sing NEWS songs or Tegomasu ones? If you do, do you sing your parts or the others?
When I go I get on to the songs that my friends choose. I never decide songs (lol). If I get to sing a song I obviously go on my part or during the chorus.
82. What do you expect the most from NEWS concerts?
To sing the singles that we never sang on stage like "Sakura Girl" or "Koi no ABO". I want to see what kind of support we'll get!
83. Please, make a question to Yamashita-kun!
84. "What could be my next hairstyle?"
[Yamapi]
Maybe it's better if he does what he wants? Even if I tell him I guess he would do as he please the same, right? (lol)
85. What do you think you were in your previous life?
I think I was a samurai. Because the soldiers on the war ground were so cool.
86. What's Yamapi's little happiness? Mine is waking up with NEWS songs!
When I wake up 3 hours before the time I set on the alarm. So that I can think "Yey I can sleep more!" (lol).
87. I heard you don't like sweets, why?
I don't hate them but I could quietly stay without them. In summer I take icecreams from time to time though.
88. What do you notice when you sing?
I think to the lyrics and the images of the song and I try to sing keeping them in mind. I love when I succeed in convey those feelings during concerts.
89. When was your first love?
During day nursery. Watching a girl there I started to feel "kyuun" without knowing why (lol). I thought "I have to protect her".
90. "Yamapi, smile! I love Yamapi when he's all smily". This is what my daughter Yuma (7 yrs old) said. The mom too (30 yrs) likes Yamapi.
I'm smiling, right? Though I'm troubled when I'm in front of the camera and they say to me "Smile". Next time I'll try to film myself watching a funny DVD, like that I can take many many pics of myself smiling!
[This win the award for cutest question ever *___*]
91. What would you like to do in the next concerts?
I want to go close to everybody! I really want to give the impression that the 6 members of NEWS are only one.
92. Do you watch the shows in which you star?
I do my best to do it.
93. Do you have interest in electronic stuff?
Nope. That's Ryo-chan (lol). When something new comes out he research about it a lot until he buy it. I'm more the type "Until it works I don't care".
94. Do you have a weak point?
No, I decided like that (lol).
95. Do you have an enemy you'd like to defeat?
This big heat! This summer is really too hot. I eat Yakiniku to get some stamina.

Any one, I like any color. The ones I use the most for objects around me are simple, quiet colors.

Going to the beach, for example. And when I realize that there are people who become happy listening to our songs!
98. Which is the song you recommend the most in the new album?
"Endless Summer". It's a song full of hopes. It's very easy to sing so please, memorize it and sing it with us!
99. Tell us your plans for tomorrow.
Off! I'll go to take a walk, wandering around the city and try many new shops, I think. I'd like to do some shopping too.
100. Otsukaresama deshita!
Yup, Otsukare (Giulia-san) <-- Yep he said like this U___U
Something I really loved of this interview is that NEWS were able to hear some words from their fans, I think they really need to know that we're here to support them <3 Reading that they heard about people loving them or telling that they're happy listening to their songs made my heart go dokidoki *v*
