Message for 1500th memorial

Ninomiya Kazunari

"I was really happy with our first cover edition!

Congratulations! I can still recall how happy I was on our first cover edition. Recently big lemon is attached to the magazine’s image, right.

 

--------Are you the type who fall in love at first sight or the type who takes time? (2002/05)

N ’12 : Talk about this I’m still the same, the type who fall in at first sight!

N ’02 : If you ask me that question, then I’m the type who takes time.

N ’12 : Eh? It can’t be true, can it!? (lol) I think it was the answer of the folly of youth. The type who falls in at first sight is better, anyway! Rather than thinking what kind of girl she is or what good about her is, I think it’s more pleasant looking at her and think “How cute!” simply. When we were together, didn’t that kind of ambience or atmosphere make you like her?

--------What kind of girl’s fashion you like? (2002/02)

N ’12 : Everything is ok as long as suit her. Didn’t I say that?

N ’02 : I don’t bother with her clothes but I like if her nail is neat.

N ’12 : Ahh... Even now I like that type. Like the one who plays piano. She doesn’t have to put any color, as long as I think it’s neat, it’s ok.

--------What kind of things you would like to do for her? (2002/03)

N ’02 : If she asked me, I think I’ll do it for her mostly. If it’s for the both of us, I’d love to!

N ’12 : Of course if it’s what she wishes for then I’ll do it for her with my best. If I wouldn’t, then I wonder what the point of us being together is. Ah... we talk about the spirit only, right? Because in the reality I don’t know if I will or not (lol). Of course I’d like her to do what I wish for too.

--------“Koi is ..., Ai is ...” how you interpret them? (2002/02)

N ’12  : Hwaa.... it’s difficult question. What did I say before?

N ’02 : Koi is something that’s done alone, and Ai is something that’s done together.

N ’12  : I bet when I was asked this question, I was in the middle of creating of romance song lyric. That’s why this kind of precise answer came out.

N ’02 : Koi is something one-sided like an outward appearance, and Ai is something that you could understand after you know her inside and  her feeling, that’s why it must be done together!

N ’12  : What a wonderful answer! What should I say more about this... No... I think there’s no need to change it.

--------What do you do in private lately? (2001/06)

N ’01 : I’ve been practicing to create songs with piano and guitar! Creating songs is really enjoyable as if I could produce it every day.

N ’12 : Without any changing I create songs with the same way. But if we talk about how I create it, I use notebook though. But nowadays, if I’m not in the mood of creating ones, than I won’t try.

--------Please tell about your feelings recently! Which one is it? (2000/07)

N ’00 : I’m in the middle of unrequited love with Italian volleyball player, Cacciatori (Maurizia)! It’s not something sad but love!

N ’12  : I really liked her. She was cute and beautiful. I’m starting to remember that time feeling. But... If I’m not wrong she got married with F1 driver. Even until now I still keep her picture in my house! Why didn’t I throw it? No... no... I wasn’t dumped by her, so there was no reason for me to! (lol)

Terebi Weekly 2012.03.10 - Peaceful Wild

Hi there... I have a good news and a bad news.... Which one do you want to know first? Hmm... I tell the good news first! But I'm sure that you all already know about this... Mannequin SP!! Yeay! This is the 5th! and still... I can't predict who wear what... ^^ But I already voted my fav though their coordinations this time are not really good. And the bad news is... I'm afraid that there will no Kokuritsu for Arashi this year... T_T Laruku is scheduled there in May.... and the news said that Kokuritsu will be closed as the preparation for Olympic 2020. They don't give any confirmation yet...

 And here... Nino speaks about new single. I think lately he was in charge on promoting new single because of his opened schedule. XDD

 

Ninomiya SP Gravure

PEACEFUL WILD

Arashi is releasing their long-waiting new single [Wild at Heart].

Among Arashi member, Ninomiya-san who is the farthest from “Wild”, clad in the atmosphere of “Mild”, and always stays in “Peace”, puts new song into thought.

Now, we asked him about what “The power of song” could do...

 

 

The wildest one is Matsujun & The most peaceful is Ohno Satoshi!?

Ninomiya is one of Arashi as National Presence. One year has passed since March 11th, have you ever thought about what you yourself could do like doing something entertaining or “Uta no Chikara (the power of song)”?

“Those things have been decided so actually I never thought about those again.  As the party that offering entertainment, I would do pleasurely what people who watch the entertainment seek so they could enjoy it. That’s why what I can do now is the same with what I’ve done until now. More than say this happened because of what had happened on March 11th, of course we always think about that disaster, but I think conversely isn’t the most important is doing everything as usual.”

“It would make me happy just looking at how intimate and fun their friendship” is what we often heard from the people who watch Arashi’s programs. We wanted to deliver that pleasure without any changing to everyone but you (Arashi) already have delivered it firmly. Then, related to Arashi’s songs, there are many of them that encourage people to move forward without any hesitation and it’s been said that this new song [Wild at heart] also is one of them.

“When the first time I heard this song, I thought “Ah~ with this kind of dorama’s tune, what a cheerful dorama!”. I watched the dorama so I felt that this song and the dorama was really matched, and moreover when recording, I sang this with good feeling. The lyric is really positive so I sang this song with the hope that the people who listens this song will feel cheerful. We sang using stand mic in PV and the set was a little Retro so it felt like a 70s era? Though I don’t understand how the 70s era was (lol).”

Because this life only happens once so let’s have an enjoyable life, tomorrow’s wind will blow tomorrow, that’s kind of feeling that the lyric has. Do you feel any empathy?

“How should I say... I never really thought about it (lol). I almost never think regarding to life (lol). I never thought how would I lead this life entering my 20’s and I also never thought what kind of 30’s I would like to have.”

Then, related to the title of the song [Wild at heart], what part of yours that you think wild?

“I kept thinking about it while filming (the interview conducted after the filming). I’m sure this question will be asked (lol). I wonder where the wild part of me that is. Conversely where is it do you think?”

You have a calm image because you are delicate. But honestly don’t you hide your wild part?

“It’s not something surprising but actually it’s not a wild part (lol). I always think about it but it never come up, the word of wild or the thing that I do that make me look wild, so I never have any interest about it. Speaking of wild member is Jun-kun, I think. He has that image. I think that’s the image that he got from his role. He does boxing at the stage play and he has fighting scene in the dorama. With that definition of wild, if you look for that wild in my role, you won’t find it. For me, wildness is not necessary. Maybe there were parts of me that you could find but not for now (lol). You want to see? Then... please tell me about it a lot (lol).”

 

If you could find it, I would show my wildness (lol)

 

This time theme is peaceful so we shot under the nice blue sky while playing bubble soap. However what is peaceful for you?

“What is it... I think it’s not a work. It’s the location. I want to spend my days enjoying my works. “

Then who is the peaceful one? In the variety show Ninomiya & Ohno grope each other, the people who watch both of you an exquisite duet, feel peaceful. And do you feel peaceful too touching Ohno?

“Yes, it’s like that, right (lol), and let’s do that and wake up (lol). But it’s not a pleasant like that (lol).

Does Ohno-san always accept any kind of groping from Ninomiya?

“Even though he accepts it, it troubles me (lol). Wielding Ohno-san was started while the 5 of us lined up together and we often lined up side to side, I think. The other member also gives back any fun responses though. It’s natural when we line up (lol). Because we always together.”

Ninomiya spends peaceful days with the other member too. That kind of him, does he always spend days off with playing game like usual? We asked Matsumoto Jun and Sato Director who were at that time having interview for [Lucky Seven]’s [Seven color investigation FILE] and movie [GANTZ] respectively. “Won’t he get bored playing game like that?” said both of them worried.  

“I don’t get bored at all (lol). But because I’m the type who thinks that I won’t get bad at this game if I keep continue playing it, so I continue this!”

Terebi Weekly 2012.01.09 - Dream 3

Listen to Arashi’s Secret Talk!

The five members of Arashi talked in secret! They looked back to the last 11 years and answered some nonsense questions!

Private Volume!

Has Arashi radio been opened?

The setting is “if five Arashi has late night radio show!?” The discussion of answering the questions from the readers is started! The first is private story.

 

2012 is the Olympic, right! If Arashi participate in relay race, what about the order of the runner?

A : If we are doing it in Radio setting, what song do you want to use as the BGM?

N : Absolutely [A.RA.SHI]. We sang it 12 years ago and it’s exactly once around.

A : I see. Then let’s read the postcards while listen to [A.RA.SHI]! The first question is If Arashi do relay race, how is the order?

S : Maybe Aiba-san is the anchor.

A : Is that okay? Thank you!

N : Then Sho-chan is the first runner. Because he is fast. (lol)

A : Sho-chan is fast if there is a punishment.

N : If the punishment is Sky diving, I’m sure he becomes fast (lol).

M : He really hate that (lol).

A : So Sho-chan is the first. Can you do the start dash?

N : Then Ohno-san, could you do that for us? As the coach.

O : It’s okay. Because I’m slow at running.

M : Are you slow?

O : I think I’m in the same level with Nino.

N : Yeah... perhaps so.

S : Then the third runner is Nino and the second runner is Matsujun, is that okay? Because Matsujun is as fast as light, right?

M : It’s like “au light” (lol)

A : That means the target is Gold! Should I move to the next postcard? She asked “In what time do you sleep?”

M : It depends on the day (lol).

N : I agree. It depends on the day but generally around 1 am.

A : I think I sleep around 3 or 4 am.

M : Me too.

A : When I get home, I don’t know why but it’s already 3 or 4 am.

S : When I was doing dorama, I wanted to sleep at 2am.

N : How about you Ohno-san?

O : It’s around 3am.

M : Even your job finished earlier, you sleep that late?

O : Basically it’s around 2 or 3am.

A : What!? It’s a question from Ohno-san in Tokyo! (lol)

M : You really wanted to know about our sleeping time?

O : Yes... put it simply I wonder what do you do.

 

In the first day of the year, what did you do spending the day?

A : Next is the question from Aiba Masaki-san to Arashi. How will you spend the New year day?

N : is that a question from Aiba-san (lol).

A : I’m Arashi and Riida also asked a question (lol).

S : I travelled with my family in 2011. I think it will be the same in 2012.

M : I watched [Arashi ni Shiyagare] with my family at my parent’s house.

S : Did you get excited?

M : We toasted together while watching the scene where Aiba-kun and me wore wigs and doing “First day of new year toasting” and then we laughed. (lol)

O : In my house, we always do Bingo Competition every year. We turned [Shiyagare] on but we didn’t watch it because we were too absorbed on the game.

A : Speaking of my family’s new year, there were a lot of Aiba’s family gathered in one of my relatives house.

S : The gathering of Aiba’s family (lol).

A : There are many Aiba’s family. We watched [Shiyagare] too but “First day of New year toasting” scene was too embarrassing. When we were child, when we watched TV together with our family, if there was an ero-scene, the atmosphere became awkward, right? It was too embarrassed so we couldn’t say anything. In 2012 I want to feel that ashamed so I will go home and watch [Shiyagare]. (lol)

N : I watched [Shiyagare] too but just by my self...

A : Did you? Were you lonely?

N : I was not lonely. I could enjoy watching it!

 

Is there anything you get into in 2012?

A : The next question is if there anything that we get into in 2012.

M : Hmm... Because I work together with Oizumi-san on a cool dorama [Lucky Seven] in January, I’ll get into Oizumi-san (lol). Because Oizumi-san is a gourmet type, so I want to get treated as many as possible.

N : Oh! It’s out. Don’t tell me that was a promotion (lol).

O : I will make a figure, maybe. Recently I drew a lot so I thought to make figures next time. I want to challenge to make the big one.

A : Show us if it’s already finished.

O : Should I?? (lol)

A : Because we were not able to travel together in 2011, so that I want we can go to many places in 2012. Yakushima, the place I visited for work was really beautiful, I want to go there once again.

S : I also want to skiing so I want to go to Canada.

M : What kind of place is that?

S : It said that we get there by helicopter and because it takes 1 day to get down the mountain, that’s all is new snow. I wonder it will be really wonderful~

A : As we expected, you are global, Sho-san! How about you, Nino?

N : I really don’t do anything now....

O : It’s game after all?

N : If I have to choose maybe I will get into sleeping. I’ve slept ordinarily in 2011 but I want to sleep more in 2012.

All : (lol)

 

Works Volume

Late night Arashi radio show still going~ 

Please tell me a significant news that happened in 2011!

A : The next question is What was the significant news in 2011?

M : Eh!? We should cite 10 news topics?

A : No... no. It’s not 10 big news but significant news.*

M : Ohh. But... narrowing it to one significant topic is difficult too (lol).

S : I think it’s about Waku-waku Gakkou. We always did concert at Tokyo Dome so far but holding an event there is a significant case.

N : We had national tour too.

M : We did training camp for the tour. We did athletic special training to conquer the fear of height and Sho-kun was able to deal with Kokuritsu flying part.

S : That’s right. It was easy.

M : Even though your hands were sweating a lot (lol).

N : It’s great if we could see the result of the training.

O : What the 5 of us have done until know will be a memory.

S : Your comment is really like you.

A : We also have been given various activity personally.

M : I’m happy to be able to meet a lot of new things either in my work or my private life.

S : I reported the Wedding of the England Prince in April in live. It was a surprised because I never thought I would be able to report the Prince wedding.  

N : For me, finally I went to have a meal with Ohno-san.

O : We did.

N : I don’t remember when we went and what we ate, so... it’s not a significant news.

O : No! It’s a significant one!

A : I became afraid of riding a jet coaster. Even thought I rode it until now.

N : Did you really ride it?

A : Maybe I misunderstood it (lol).

O : For me is finally I understand the fascination of Akihabara.

S : Why Akihabara?

O : I went there to find a remote control and ended up around the area. There are various specialist shops. It was really interesting.

A : There are also Maid cafes, right. Did you go there?

O : I won’t (lol).

Please tell me whether a popular word within Arashi in 2011. Please imagine a word that will be popular in 2012 too!

A : Is there any famous word within Arashi in 2011?

S : I have already said “deliciouuus~” for 2 years, but somehow no one supports it.

A : (lol)

S : It seems it’s not popular at all.

N : Is that so? “deliciouuus~”.

A : It was famous, wasn’t it?

M : I think because it’s an ordinary word. It’s really ordinary letter.

A : Speaking of that, we don’t hear it lately.

S : Yes. Because it didn’t give any effect so I control myself to not doing it. I will do it again if the New year has come.

N : That means should we aim the prize of buzzword of the year?

S : Our target is to become the nominator, so we should do this in the beginning of new year.

N : It’s a well-separated from New year.

M : If we take a rest once, the freshness will disappear.

N : We’ll support “deliciouuus” in 2012.

A : That’s right. Let’s often say “deliciouuus”!

S : Thanks for supporting me!

N : (lol) From now please let us to backing up it.

 

*Both sound same but have different meaning, "juudai".

Terebi Weekly 2012.01.09 - Dream 2

 

In the middle of freezing winter, Please warm me only!

In the middle of intense chill, Arashi will give warmth only for you.

It’s gravure of virtual dream experience!

 

How to make a girl feels warm?

O : What should I do!? (He thought for a while and then suddenly said with loud voice) “Do “Ha~”. (lol) When I felt cold, I would breath “Ha~” and felt warm. If the girl looks freezing without saying anything I will take her hand and breathing to warm her. There’s no need saying anything.(lol)

N : I would buy her a hand warmer. (lol) Even though I have been told it’s too pragmatic, but actually it’s the best way, so there won’t any complaint. (lol) Conversely I couldn’t think any romantic way to warm a girl. I already said many times, it’s completely related to money I would buy her a hand warmer! (lol)

J : I often use scarf in winter season but because recently I have stage play, so it became a indispensable item. But if a girl looks freezing, perhaps I will lend her the scarf first. Even it’s just for the neck is enough. It will make her warm.

A : Both of us will run! You will become warm absolutely, right? If the girl say that she don’t want to run, I will lend her my jacket. And then we will eat hot soup. It feels warm. For example eat miso-soup, it will warm her body and her heart. (lol)

S : Eh! I can’t think other than lend my jacket to her. Is there other way? A hand warmer? I never have that one.(lol) I’m sensitive to cold and hot, but I use t-shirt in the winter. I’m the outdoor type so it becomes “In order to not play outside in the cold day!”.

Who is member who feels sensitive to the cold?

O : I wonder... All of them? If someone said “It’s cold”, everyone will said so (lol). My coldness counter-plan is wearing something. I don’t wear inner shirt but I just wear a jacket. I buy thick clothes every year. And I use a hand warmer only when I go fishing.

N : (He asked to Aiba who is sitting beside him) You are sensitive to cold? (Aiba : Yes) Because the real person said so, there’s no mistake. (Aiba : I sweat a lot too) .... Yes. Maybe his metabolism is good (lol). I’m not that sensitive though. Maybe I look cold in the morning but I go out with short sleeves.

J : I wonder who is it? I don’t think among the Arashi member who has the image of  sensitivity to cold. The most resistant maybe is me. I have dorama in January and also the location in early morning is really cold. But I think people who wear that thick cloth doesn’t mean he is sensitive to cold. It’s like “Let’s overcome this coldness with spirit!”.

A : Me. In the winter I wear t-shirt as the outer because if I use a thick jacket I will perspire. I leave the jacket in order to not get sweat and must wipe the sweat, my body will cool down and it’s really cold. I don’t like cold but I dare to wear light cloth. (lol) 

S : The most sensitive maybe is Matsujun. I often saw him wearing an inner shirt under his costume, and maybe he wore that shirt from home. All of us wear costume for the filming, but I think there’s no one who wears that inner shirt from home besides him. (lol)
