Hi~
My first interview translation for the holidays!! Hope to bring you more in the next weeks :D
It's D2's Kenki and Micchi!! (^o^)
D2 TALK
Fluffy and warm with kotatsu [table with heater]
Compatibility diagnosis
KENKI YAMAGUCHI and RYO MITSUYA
The two who acted together in the musical “Nintama Rantaro”. From each others blog entries and more they show that they are especially good friends. With those two the tension will definitely rise! So they challenged GOOD COME’s famous project, the compatibility diagnosis. How was the result of the diagnosis?!
Y: Because we knew each other before the formation of D2 and are companions who are always together, we had confidence in this compatibility diagnosis right?
M: Yes. And it was a good occasion to see what we were thinking of each other in a new light. But one thing that surprised me was, when Kenki expressed me with one character, it was “beauty”. Somehow I was happy.
Y: On the other side, I was only “monkey” (laugh). Well, that might be as well. I always get told that I’m monkey-ish (laugh). What is the “emotion” that Micchi wrote as expected answer?
M: That I’m very sensitive or that I’m carrying a heart with thankfulness or such, I thought I’d be happy if I get told something like that.
Y: I see~
M: But it was almost correct or a near-miss, right. We also matched in what we wanted to do to each other.
Y: Because until now, the time together was long and we talk about anything.
M: When we did the musical “nintama rantaro”, we weren’t only together at the rehearsal but also went to Kenki’s home. Because we were acting classmates, we were thinking about the background of the companion roles and such. The only time when we weren’t together was in our dreams (laugh).
Y: I often dream that we go to karaoke together. Maybe because we usually went together often.
M: I see! When a stage play is going to start soon, I often dream about making mistakes in the play, what about Kenki?
Y: I don’t dream that. Because I’m positive. But I often say “It’s okay!!” right? Without thinking (laugh).
M: But, when you are told this, you start looking forward “I see. It’ll be okay”. Compared to positive Kenki, I’m completely negative.
Y: You’re the type who thinks too much. I can easily see when Micchi is thinking deeply.
M: From my surroundings as well, I think that my emotions are easy to read. That’s why I maybe get ignored by the members.
Y: It’s not like that. Without getting ignored, I want you to let this out. If you don’t do that it will gather. I think it’ll be good if we help each other there.
M: Thank you!
Y: Because I also let it show when I’m troubled with acting.
M: Because Kenki is usually cheerful, such times are easy to tell.
Y: But because the companions are following, the surrounding people are helping out, it often gets solved. D2 are kinda like ‘one for all, all for one’, not? That’s why Micchi is also a presence that has to be there, I think.
M: In between where Kenki and Tsuru-chan (Kamitsuru Toru) were, I joined. Even long before D2 was formed we had lessons together, so I also can’t think of a D2 without Kenki.
Y: Especially because we acted together in “nintama”, I think that I can show my undecorated self. It got something natural to be together right?
M: Yes! Being together got so natural that it has the feeling of a married couple, I think.
Y: Eh (laugh)?
M: Ah, I can’t really find the right words (laugh). By the way, within D2 Kenki is beloved by the kids and like a helpful big brother.
Y: Micchi is a person who gets teased. His reactions are big so he gets teased a lot. Somehow like the youngest child. Although there are a lot of members who are younger (laugh).
M: Yes! I get teased a lot! Furthermore, when I’m together with Kenki, he gets S. At first I was surprised. When we were playing games, I thought “Oh, his face is different to the time when we’re together with the members.”
Y: I don’t think that I’m that S, but with Micchi I just want to tease him ♪ That I show even such a side, means that we’re good friends (laugh).
Compatibility diagnosis START!!
“It’ll be okay!” said the two full of confidence and answered the 8 questions about the first meeting until now and about what will come from now on.
Q1. Please write the other’s birth date, birthplace, blood type and zodiac sign (as illustration).
M: 1986.07.17, Aichi, B, crab (Cancer)
Y: 1988.02.11, A, Aomori, turtle (Aquarius)
Y “Crap! It’ll be bad if I make a mistake, right?! Either Fish or Aquarius right~” Yamaguchi is timid from the first question. On the other hand, Mitsuya said “It’s okay to make a mistake~?” with a flexible appearance. The result is that both are correct! But… M “A water jug, isn’t it something that girls have?” Y “Eh? It’s not a turtle!?” Yamaguchi’s stupidity. “It’s the turtle that was bullied in Urashima Taro (laugh)” revealed Mitsuya his impressions.
Q2. When was your first meeting? Where? Do you remember the first conversation you exchanged?
M: At lesson, two years ago! He was frightening with his shaved head and seemed hard to talk to, but in reality he was kind.
Y: In a lesson 2 years ago, “Nice to meet you, I’m Matsuringo”
M “Eh? What’s Matsuringo?” Y “I forgot what word we exchanged, so I used this joke (laugh)” M “Ah! Not words, but you wrote the impression. But it’s something like ‘Nice to meet you’ or ‘Take care of me’.” Y “Right. And as you mentioned it, you were afraid, right?” M “Yes. Because you were together with Kamitsuru, both with shaved head and tall, like a yankee (laugh)” like that, though there was a near-miss, they both seem to remember their first meeting♪
Q3. The first time you went out, when and where did you do what?
M: Two years ago. Karaoke I guess?!
Y: 2 years ago, on the way home after lesson. Karaoke in Shibuya!!
“2 years ago” Yamaguchi said without thinking, “I hope it ’s right….” Mitsuya said insecure. But, they were splendid correct!! M “I sang Yazima Byoushitsu. MI~KA~TA!* (laugh)” Y “I remember that I sang Supernova or EXILE or Chemistry or so.” M “Kenki is really good at singing♥ Please release a CD! (laugh)” Y “Then I want to do a collaboration with Micchi’s unicycle!” such a dream is developing.
*Yazima Beauty Salon’s “Nihon no mikata”
Q4. Please write what you like about each other (above: your answer, below: what answer you expect from the other person)
M: Good at singing, bright and kind smile. / Cheerfulness.
Y: Cuteness, spontaneity. / Cheerfulness, maybe spontaneity.
M “Oh? Not very matching?” Y “Eh? Above is what Micchi likes about me right? Isn’t it strange?” the first time that the two answers to the question don’t match. M “Ah, I forgot to include cheerful! Kenki Genki!* although he is the owner of this name! I did it!!” Y “That’s right~!!” M “But the nuance is matching, isn’t it?” Y “Yes, the nuance is.” That’s how the two tried to make it a correct answer somehow.
*Genki=cheerful. It’s a catchphrase that Yamaguchi uses often in his blog or at events.
Q5. Please express the other in one character. (left: your answer, right: what answer you expect from the other person)
M: 猿monkey / 感emotion
Y: 美beauty / 明brightness
Y “It got like a person’s name (laugh)” M “What shall I go when I make a mistake with the character?” The answer that each wrote while muttering this…?! Y “Monkey, that’s not from what I look like (laugh)!! I wrote beauty’ because Micchi oftens acts beautiful characters like Tachibana Senzou* or others. And then, the heart is beautiful.” M “Woah! Thank you! ….See, isn’t a monkey passionate!? It’s a compliment!” Y “Well…” without agreeing (laugh).
*his character in “Nintama Rantaro”
Q6. Please tell a secret about the other person that only you know.
M: Seems that he doesn’t think anything but to be honest he is thinking about his companions by 328
Y: To tell the truth, he is deceiving his age.
Yamaguchi who sees the answer of Mitsuya said “Why do you write something so good~?” M “A monkey is also thinking about his companions!” Y “Don’t conclude from a monkey! (laugh)” M “Rather say, what do you mean with deceiving the age!?” Y “Because you don’t look appropriate for your age, it’s actually more a suspicion than a secret (laugh).” M “Because Mitsu is only 16 years old~♪ (with the melody of ‘sentimental journey’) I’m not deceiving it!!” the suspicion was explained (?).
Q7. Please draw an illustration of what you think is the treasure of the other person. (left: your answer, right: what answer you expect from the other person)
M: microphone (music) / unicycle
Y: unicycle / D2
M “Kenki’s treasure should be this~ If not it’ll be a shock! I’ll say ‘This is not your treasure?!’” Y “Eh~ (sweat)” uneasy. The answer is… M “Of course it’s D2, but still, it’s music.” Y “I wanted to write it but because of Micchi’s pressure I thought too much.” M “I think I said too much.” Y “But Micchi’s is of course a unicycle!” M “Yes! If not for a unicycle, the me I am now wouldn’t be here.” Almost correct?
Q8. Please write what you want to do together from now on.
M: Kenki’s singing with Mitsuya’s unicycle
Y: And event or LIVE together!!
Y “I was confident with this!!” M “(looking at Yamaguchi’s answer) Oh? This is correct right? Draw a picture of a unicycle!!” Y “That’s right!! With that it’s perfect! But, I’m really thinking about it!” M “I also want to release a DVD of the live~ It’s also okay if it doesn’t sell well (laugh).” Y “Isn’t it bad when it doesn’t sell? We will shoot by ourself and make the production costs cheap or so (laugh).” M “That’s good!” And with connection to Q3’s topic they got into a high tension.
Compatibility diagnosis RESULT
With some answers trying very hard but in the end the result is that 5 questions are correct. But, expressing Yamaguchi with the character for ‘monkey’ shows Mitsuya’s freedom. (As Yamaguchi said “Doesn’t Micchi look more like a monkey!”, the cameraman commented “I think that Mitsuya is a Japanese monkey and Yamaguchi a monkey.” Somehow the two agreed.) Yamaguchi who suspected age misrepresentation (laugh) accepts the Mitsuya with a young mind big-heartedly, and it became a compatibility diagnosis that shows the composition of these two.
