This is for a request for an old episode of VS Arashi from 08.02.2008 with Yanagisawa Shingo and Satou Tamao. Enjoy the chaos.
S: So, it's begun.
We've already started into August.
J: We have.
N: It went by fast.
S: It feels like it's in the middle of summer, doesn't it?
Do you have any good memories from summer vacations?
J: This program is 30 minutes, so we don't need to talk about that.
A: If we talk, then some of the games will be cut.
S: If we win today easily, then this would be the place to talk...
N: No, today's guest is a talker!
A: That's right. That guy can really talk.
S: Then let's call out today's guests. Here they are!
They are Yanagisawa Shingo and Satou Tamao.
S: You won't do it today?
Today's will be exciting too.
You're going to be competing in games today. Tamao-san, how confident are you?
T: We're like mice that are restless, so...
Y: That's you, isn't it?
I'm a mouse too?
T: Aren't you like a mouse?
Y: That's true, my face looks like one.
S: He can do anything! As expected of Shingo-san.
Very fast! Very fast!
Let's do it! Let's do the games!
We'll be starting from the first game!
The first competition is Pinball Runner!
What do you think? Can you do it?
T: We're experts at this, right?
Y: Tama-chan is good at things like this.
T: No, no! I'm giving the directions! This is you, Shingo-san.
Y: Me?
I'm doing this?
T: Of course, of course.
Y: I wonder if it will be okay...
S: How is your physical strength?
Y: I'm fine. I have a lot so it'll be alright!
"We'll burst it open, yeah! It's honestly good! That's why-"
"You are my soul! Soul! Always close to me! Arashi! Arashi! For dream!"
A: Wow.
T: As expected!
A: With just that, you're already tired, right?
Y: Yes.
Text: Extreme fatigue.
T: Are you okay?
S: Who's going to go?
N: I'll go.
S: Then who will go to the control tower?
O: I will.
S: Ohno-san, go ahead.
Please stand-by.
I: First on Pinball Runner is Arashi Team's challenge.
Ninomiya-kun?
N: Yes?
I: How do you feel?
N: I'm kinda worried about the control tower...
It's kinda...
O: It's okay.
N: It's worrisome.
O: Go to 6.
If you have time for 9, go there too.
N: The one who's seeing that "there's time" is you!
Cuz I can't see it.
I: How many balls will be your goal?
A: We haven't made it into two digits yet.
N: Then maybe I should go for it.
Go for it!
I: They've made their goal over 10 balls.
N: Properly say them.
I: Let's begin. The time limit is 60 seconds.
N: Say them loud!
O: Okay.
A: He's like an elementary student.
I: Pinball Runner, start!
The countdown and the belt have started.
They haven't gotten anything yet. They got their first ball!
They have 30 points.
Ninomiya-kun... he's not saying the numbers until right before they fall.
He's getting the balls and the belt is moving faster.
He hasn't gotten the third ball yet.
Ohno-kun is giving his directions. How is it?
They got two!
The belt is going faster now. They have four balls.
They got the fifth ball. They're doing well.
They already have 150 points. It's getting harder for Ninomiya-kun. It's getting worse.
There are 10 seconds left. 10 seconds.
One more- he got it!
The game finished there!
A: It seems like a lot went in.
J: There is.
Y: Not good!
S: It seems the guest team is getting depressed.
T: He's lost his confidence.
Y: Because he got that many.
S: But you can move, can't you?
Y: As for me... I can.
I'm bad at games of endurance.
T: It's one minute.
Y: But I have a lot of power!
It's for one minute?
S: Yes.
So, Shingo-san, are you ready?
Y: Yes.
S: Then please stand-by over there.
And Tamao-san, over there.
I: Then once more, how confident are you?
Y: I... I am!
J: It's okay to say you're not.
Y: I'm not at all! But Tamao-san believes in me.
T: Yes. You'll be fine. You can sing Arashi, so you'll be okay!
N: Stop it! You'll get tired!
Y: "We'll burst it open, yeah! It's honestly good!"
Text: 46 years old this year
I: This will depend on Tamao-san's directions.
Let's begin. The goal is Arashi Team's 210 points, 7 balls.
Y: The beginning will be important.
I: The time limit is 60 seconds. Pinball Runner, start!
N: Good luck!
T: I think it's a 5?
I: Will he be able to get the first one?
He got it! He got his first ball.
He still only has one. His movements are hesitant.
He can't get any others. Yanagisawa Shingo.
He got his second. The belt will speed up. He'll need to move quicker.
He's only- The third one! He has three now for 90 points.
Every time they get two balls, the belt will speed up.
T: 6, 6, 6! Ah, come on!
Y: What?!
I: He's having trouble getting them. He'll need to- He didn't make it. It didn't go in!
He still has three.
His expression has become faint. There isn't much time left.
Only three balls. Can he get the last one?
It's over!
N: Tamao-san, what was that at the end?
I: They only managed to get three balls.
90 points.
Y: Tamao-chan, while I'm running, "7, 8, no 7, 8," which one?!
T: The ball seemed like it could go either way, so I was playing it by ear... kinda.
S: The next game is Rolling Coin Tower!
The Guest Team has 90 points and Arashi Team has 210 points. We're leading by 120 points.
N: Somehow or another, it widened so much.
T: If we win this, it'll be alright.
Y: That's right!
N: Ah? Did he turn off?
J: He's already out of batteries?
Y: Let me charge for 5 more seconds.
S: 5 seconds?
Y: Let's do our best.
Tamao-chan really likes this. She's good at it too.
T: Doesn't it seem easy?
S: Surprisingly, it's difficult to do.
A: It's pretty hard.
S: It will be 2 on 2, so we'll be choosing two of us to do it.
A: I'll do it.
S: Me too.
What would you like to do? Which would you prefer, the blue area or the pink?
Y: The way that the audience can see our faces is better, so pink!
S: Then please go over there.
I: Please stand-by.
This is the second stage, Rolling Coin Tower.
S: I have the title of Rolling Coin Tower Master and I'm in the middle of growing quickly.
Y: In the middle of growing quickly?
S: Yes. So I'm sorry to say, I'll be taking the points here.
Y: Alright, this guy's become interesting.
I'm getting fired up!
T: Yes, we are!
N: Don't lose!
Y: The game is starting?
The game starts!
Text: Play ball!
Y: Let's play!
S: We're fired up!
I: The four of their dreams depends on this. Let's begin.
Rolling Coin Tower, start!
N: Go on the offense!
S: I will.
I: Arashi Team is first with Sakurai-kun. He stacked up three 20 point coins.
They must use at least three coins.
They can still go higher.
They are still in High School Baseball mode.
It's a pretty excited Rolling Coin Tower. He stacked up the 20 point coins.
Here, Aiba-kun took a chance.
Tamao-chan also got 60 points. She tried a challenge too.
We are entering the second round.
N: Go for it.
I: Arashi Team's Sakurai-kun. Both teams are adding up points by using the 20 point coins.
They can still go higher. Both teams shouldn't have a problem.
Aiba-kun also got 60 points.
The tower is gradually getting taller.
When the tower falls, the last person to have touched it will be the loser.
Next is Sakurai-kun. They're still excited.
It's getting taller. It's still alright.
It's still alright. Both teams are at 300 points. They're still using the 20 point coins.
Aiba-kun cleared too.
Tamao-chan cautiously adds 30 points.
T: Scary!
J: You can do it!
I: And... Sakurai-kun also gets 30 points.
Shingo-san, 30 points.
It's gotten to a dangerous height. Before, both teams had the same amount of points.
Tamao-chan... also cleared with 30 points.
He put the three on. Sakurai Sho, clear.
How high will this rolling coin tower go? Yanagisawa Shingo, clear! He also cleared.
It's dangerously high. Aiba-kun, 30 points.
Tamao-chan uses the 5 point coin- Game over!
J: What's with that team?
Text: Huh?
I: For some reason, Yanagisawa Shingo is cheering.
J: Shingo-san! Shingo-san! Wait! Wait!
You're team...
T: I knocked it over.
Y: Ah, I'm a team with Tamao-chan. So it means we lost?
T: Yes, yes. We lost!
S: The final game, Falling Pipes!
The Guest Team has 515 points and Arashi Team has 790, so we are still leading by 275 points.
J: It got wider again.
S: If you don't try pretty hard...
First, we'll start from the Guest Team. Who will try catching the pipes?
T: Then, me?
Y: Go for it.
T: I'll go!
S: Please go ahead, Tamao-san. Who will choose the pipes?
Ohno-san, over there.
Arashi Team's pipe chooser will be Ohno-kun. Please choose two pipes.
N: He's looking!
Y: Don't worry! Don't worry!
J: Don't worry?
N: He hasn't done anything yet.
S: I think the way you're supposed to use that is completely different.
A: Don't cheat. You were going to tell, weren't you?
Y: How mean, you whirlwind devil -no, you guys!
I: Leader, you've chosen, right?
O: Yes.
I: Tamao-chan?
Are you ready?
Y: Calm down, calm down!
T: Yes.
I: Let's begin.
Falling Pipes, start!
O: Tamao-chan, you haven't done that thing yet today.
T: Eh? What?
O: Pun pun.
*Translation note: Her trademark gag.
T: Pun pun? Ah, you're right, I haven't!
O: Please do it now.
T: Eh? Now?
O: Ready...
I: Too bad! She was a little too slow.
Tamao wasn't able to catch even one.
S: Right then, our plan was a success, wasn't it Shingo-san? Or was it Tamao-san's mistake?
Y: Well, Tamao-chan was going to do "pun pun".
S: I'm sorry. "Pun pun" isn't this way, it's this way, right?
Y: Tamao-chan!
T: But since I was told to do "pun pun", I did it, unintentionally.
I just did it.
S: Up next is Arashi Team. Who should we have be the pipe catcher?
M: There's only 125 more points, right? If we get that much, we win.
A: A called game.
N: Then, we'll have purple boy go and do it.
S: We'd like to finish it here.
J: I'll do it.
N: Get a called game!
J: I'll finish it.
S: The one choosing the pipes will be Shingo-san.
N: He's started it again!
I: This is the deciding point on VS Arashi.
Y: Here I go!
I: Shingo-san, please choose two falling pipes.
Y: Choose two pipes, right?
I: Yes.
Y: Are you ready? Tamao-chan,is this okay? I'm going to push them.
T: Don't look!
Y: I will!
Okay? Alright, I pressed them.
I pressed them.
Text: A false start!?
T: You can't do that!
N: Ito-san!
I: Yes, go ahead.
N: Ito-san? Is it okay to make this a called game?
Y: I'm sorry, I got excited and pressed "go". It's because the staff left this behind!
Text: We didn't. From the staff.
Y: They put this here and I wondered what to do with it.
N: One more time. Do it seriously!
Y: One more time!
I'm sorry!
J: Please do it one more time.
N: We reseted it.
Y: Here I go.
Okay!
I: Let's begin.
Falling Pipes, start!
Y: Um, you know... What did you eat for breakfast? This morning.
J: Eh?
Y: What did you eat for breakfast?
J: I had soba.
Y: And now you've become hungry.
J: Yes, I'm hungry.
Y: That's nice. Did you eat 10 of them? How many?
J: No, I don't each that much.
Y: But, the other day... There was that thing? You know...
I: Double Catch!
J: 60 points.
I: 60 points!
S: We still don't know who will win.
The Pipe Catcher is Shingo-san. Please stand-by.
Who will do the Pipe Choice?
N: Me!
S: Go ahead, Ninomiya-kun.
I: Falling Pipes, second game.
If he doesn't get 335 points, at that point, it will become Arashi Team's victory.
T: Do your best!
I: Ninomiya-kun, please choose two falling pipes.
N: But I was helped by him before.
Y: Yes, in the past.
N: He helped me out on my very first drama.
Y: You were still 15?
N: 15.
S: About 10 years ago?
N: At that time, he said, "You'll definitely debut!"
Y: In a car, I told him to do his best and it would be alright. "You'll definitely become big!"
The whole time in the bus to the location shoot, I cheered him on. With Tanaka Misako.
N: Yes, you did.
Y: We cried. We cried in that car!
N: Of course that's a lie!
Y: I made that up about crying. I'm very sorry!
I: Shingo-san, you're ready, aren't you?
Y: You already pressed them?
J: Are you okay doing it there?
N: I did, I did.
Y: You already did!
N: I did. When you were talking about your memories.
Y: As expected.
N: How many stars is it so far?
Y: This program is 3 stars!
I: If he doesn't get over 335 points, it will be game over at that point.
Falling Pipes, start!
I: He got it! He got 100 points!
All: It already fell!
Y: No way...
Eh? No way!
I: All of a sudden, he showed us a great catch. But the points are only 100. The result is Arashi Team's victory!
S: And so, today is our victory. Unfortunately, we can't give you the prizes. But today...
They were close. Should we give them the prizes?
J: No way!
N: No, even if we did...
A: If we gave it to them, then there wouldn't have been a point to the games.
N: But since they came, we should give it to them.
Text: Arashi fighting!?
A: There wouldn't have been a point to this!
T: Stop it! Someone! Police! Police!
Text: Is he prepared for this?
Y: What happened?
T: A fight started.
Y: Do you know them?
T: I do.
Y: Did they do something to you?
T: They didn't.
Y: Who was fighting?
All: We weren't.
Y: We got a tip. There was a eyewitness.
All: Oh, shut up.
Y: Shut up? Saying that to a police officer!
Shibuya Station! 5 young men in colorful polo shirts, none of them are making sense!
Text: A nice performance!
All: Great!
I: It still continues after this. Yanagisawa World!
T: It was fun! But sorry about me.
Y: It's okay, it's okay.
T: Starting today I'll do 50 sit-ups. Every day.
Y: Great. Let's come and try for a revenge match.
T: Yeah, let's! Definitely!
Y: Tamao-chan, when you look at me, I feel a shock. Are you interested in me?
T: No, no.
Y: That's too bad about today.
T: Yes.
Y: We would really like to win at these kind of games.
T: Yes, we would.
Y: Don't leave an opening. It'll shock me.
But we tried our best today!
T: We did, didn't we? I wasn't very good. Really, I wasn't.
Y: Is that okay?
Staff: Okay.
Y: We're already changing? Okay, good work.
T: How cold!
S: I laughed so much I'm tired.
N: It's great we won. Again.
A: Yeah.
N: We won, we won.
A: We did.
N: We're in good condition.
Recently, we really have been!
Y: Were you saying bad things about me?
Text: You're still here!
S: We're finishing it up now.
Y: Really? Sorry, sorry.
N: We're leaving, so you should say one last thing.
Y: Today was really...
We got to go on Arashi's program and Tamao-chan showed me a nice dream.
Until we meet again, farewell!
By the way, you whirlwind devils- no, you guys... Hey!
