translation => duet jan'08 - chinen + ohno ♥ + arashi
i was kinda hoping ohno would be more passionate towards chinen.

:/

message from chinen to ohno:

till know, i have been working towards becoming someone like ohno kun.
then, i became part of Hey! Say! JUMP and it was decided that i am to debut
i thought "does this means i have gotten just a little closer to ohno kun(his aim)?"
but when i went to arashi's concert at tokyo dome,
i felt ohno kun's performance so strongly that it felt as if it was just beside me[1]
there's still a long way to go before i can catch up
i have to try even harder!
i have received even greater passion (from ohno) than before.
ohno kun will always be someone i aim to be.

awwww~ let big sister give you a hug, you chibi shrimp~

. . . . .

idk why all i'm posting are translations these days! but it's rly helping me with my japanese. i'm kinda excited lol. oh btw, i apologise for the excessive 'omg's and 'lol's in my entries. habit. :D

and sorry i've been spamming the comm recently. ORZ i'm thinking of stopping the spam though. maybe i'll just post the translations here and if you guys are interested, you can cyber stalk this lj from time to time. i try my best to be accurate. 8D

words in italics are mine k~

ohno answers fanmail:

fan: as ohno kun's fan, when i heard hey! say! jump's chinen kun say that the sempai he aim to be was "ohno satoshi kun!", i felt really happy. how does ohno kun feel about becoming someone's target?

ohno: i'm troubled by it(laughes). am i really that good? although everyone(i think he meant heysay) came to the resting room to say hi during the tokyo dome concert, the atmosphere was kinda awkward. i was just standing there, i don't what to do (laughes). what i want to say to chinen kun is, "if you ever come to dislike me, please do say so!".

fan: up till now, o-chan has had a lot of nicknames like captain, sami, taishou etc. among them, is there any that you take special note of or dislike?

ohno: the one i dislike is "okama taishou"[2] (bitter laugh). nino suddenly started to call me "okama taishou!" this summer. at first, i thought "why!?" he said i only support okamas, don't i? (i think nino is talking about those c/d/g no arashi eps where ohno had to go to the gaybar lol remember babako!? she came along with arashi to shukudai too! HAHA) the members also called me "o-chan" when arashi was first formed. i felt kinda grossed out when others called me that, although they don't really do that now (laughes).

nino answers fanmail:

fan: ohmiya sk did not appear in this summer's concerts. how are the two of them doing these days? will they not appear in arashi's concerts again?

nino: how are they doing? they must have been doing something somewhere, haven't they? i don't know the details though (laughes). the possibility of them appear in future...i can't say really say it won't happen (grin)[3].

jun answers fanmail:

fan: what did you do in your free time recently? did you cleaned and tidied up your room?

jun: when i have time, i'll go horse riding or i'll meet up with my friends. recently, i met up with nikishido ryo for a meal(lol! please go read the winkup msg board that i've translated). after that, we watched "kurozu zero" (a japanese movie aka crows: episode 0(read editedit), starring oguri shun. it's the wrong zero...). that guy didn't bring any money so i had to pay for everything. i even had to pay for his taxi fare home (laughes).


let me summarize a little about sho's and aiba's.

sho said that the catch phrase "maximum" was created on the spur of the moment, there's no meaning...(MY MUM JUST WENT INTO MY ROOM, SAW AIBA AND GOES "HE'S SO SISSY-GIRLY" !!!! WHAT DOES SISSY-GIRLT MEANS LOL) to it and he can't recall why he said that. the biggest failure he had since debut was during the ultra strong game in australia when he overslept on the 3rd day. someone asked if he still had the 'wings' he had on his back. (i thought it was the butt) he replied no and said that it was the result of his tanning session at the salon. because of the beads of sweat on his shoulder blades, that area didn't get tanned and he told others that they were wings. that was when he was in year 1 in high school and those wings disappeared cos he no longer goes to the tanning salon.

the tanning salon at that age!?

aiba said the scariest experiment he had done was "鳥人間" (toriningen). he said it was rly scary and that the members were also shocked when he fell. when he was doing the stage play, there was a scene where adam had to say sorry to caroline (kato natsuki). because they had to change clothes very fast, his misbuttoned his shirt. he was roaring with laughter when he returned to the side of the stage. after that, he had to say sorry to natsuki chan too.

[1] literally, chinen said he felt ohno's performance by his side
[2] okama taishou literally means "transvestite general" XDDDDDd
[3] usually, the magazines always use (笑), which means "laugh" at the end of the sentences right? duet used (ニヤリ) for nino, which means "grin".

there are so many comments i want to make about okama taishou and mj+ryo+small room (ok, maybe his room wasn't so small) but i rly gotta sleep! night guys~ :)

edit: my mum thought ohno is gorgeous XDDDDD she said nino was alright. we already knew what she thought about aiba. so i flipped to sho and goes "this one?!" all excitedly.

after "...", she walked away...........

i still don't know how she feels about matsujohn... D:

editedit: correction! it's crows zero. thanks to yelloweito :D
