CAM CAM 2009 - Arashi's perspectives on romance

[barbosa2007]

The members of Arashi under a gruelling ten-bout of Q & A by Cam Cam magazine.

Q1: If you were a girl, which Arashi member would you date?

Ohno: Aiba-chan. I wanna go on a golf date with him!

Jun: I don’t want to date any one of them!

Sho: Nino. That guy does magic tricks, so it seems like he’ll pull out one or two when the conversation runs dry.

Nino: Everyone’s good looking so I’d go out with any one of them. (laughs)

Aiba: Nino, I guess… We like the same physical activities.

Q2: Conversely, which member wouldn’t you want to go out with?

Ohno: Myself. I think we’ll be fishing all the time and it’ll be boring.

Jun: Nino. He seems aloof and will immerse himself in games.

Sho: Ohno-kun. He has a lot of hobbies like drawing and fishing which he does all by himself!

Nino: No one, I think.

Aiba: No one! In fact, I think I could go out with all five of them! Ah, that would include myself, so I actually mean 4 of them. (laugh)

Q3: State 3 qualities about your type of girl.

Ohno: She must be gentle! I don’t really have 3 qualities. It’d be good if she’s gentle.

Jun: Someone who’s smart, is well-balanced and has an attractive personality.

Sho: She’ll be able to laugh, cry and be angered by the same things as myself.

Nino: A considerate girl who speaks Japanese and likes me.

Aiba: A girl with common sense, isn’t overbearing and is hardworking. I think my type of girl hasn’t changed from back then, basically.

Q4: What fashion would your type of girl sport?

Ohno: Casual and simple. Normalcy is the best way to go. When we’re together, just wear anything that’s easy-going without being over the top.

Jun: Something casual? That’s because I’m dressed in jeans and beach sandals today. (laughs)

Sho: Anything, as long as it suits her. But I do hope she considers the time, place and occasion!

Nino: I’m pretty much good with anything. As long as she wears it!

Aiba: I like people who enjoy a wide variety of fashion.

Q5: And the kind of gesture from your favourite girl would be?

Ohno: When she’s throwing something. When girls throw stuff, don’t their wrists become limp? It’s like there’s no snap to it at all. I like that!

Jun: Her attempt to hold onto her hair for dear life so that it doesn’t fall into her ramen? (laughs)

Sho: A cute sneeze that almost looks like it’s fake. (laughs)

Nino: Her smile. It’s not really considered a gesture, but nothing beats a heartfelt smile.

Aiba: I seriously have no idea!

Q6: During this period, where would you go on a date?

Ohno: The ocean! The sea at Shikoku sounds nice, though I’ve only been there for work.

Jun: I guess it’s either fireworks or the festival.

Sho: Barbeque. I just wanna get together with everyone and make lots of noise!

Nino: Kamakura! The ocean! They seem like the standard places to go. [translator’s note: Doesn’t Nino hate the ocean?!]

Aiba: An island. I wanna see the dolphins!

Q7: What kind of praise, when received from the girl you like, would make you happy?

Ohno: “You’re so silly.” (laughs)

Jun: It can be anything as long as she’s genuine about it.

Sho: “I saw you on XX.” Something like that? She doesn’t need to praise me specifically, the fact that she watched the show makes me happy.

Nino: I’m a person who likes to be praised so she can say anything and it’ll make me happy. Like, “Wow, that was great.” I hope to be respected by the girl I like.

Aiba: I’m someone who thrives on praises so I basically welcome any type of praise!

Q8: Which part of a woman would you look at when you meet her for the very first time?

Ohno: Her eyes. This isn’t any particular reason to it, my eyes would just meet hers naturally.

Jun: Her eyes. When we greet each other somehow our eyes would meet.

Sho: Her expression. That’s because their temperament will be reflected in their expression.

Nino: Her fingers. I’m mesmerised by hands which are fair, pretty and slender.

Aiba: Her eyes. I think there are unexpectedly very little people who look straight in the eye of the people they are talking to.

Q9: Do the members of Arashi discuss their love lives?

Ohno: I talked to Sho-kun before in the past. But I hardly talk to anyone about it now! Basically, I solve [all my issues] by myself.

Jun: We virtually don’t do it at all, though we might just discuss it with the person we’re with at that point in time?!

Sho: Although we’re really good pals, we just don’t talk about it since we’re all guys after all. (laughs)

Nino: Nope! We don’t do stuff like discuss our love lives or borrow money. (laughs)

Aiba: We don’t do it in particular, but I’d like to think that we could do it with any other member. It’d feel something like, “Hey, listen…”

Q10: What is love to you?

Ohno: Cooperation.

Jun: One of the three things I need in life. I feel that the big three are nature, work and love.

Sho: Probably comfort and stimulation. Although I would hate for it to be overly stimulating.

Nino: Something that’s good if you have it. I don’t really have a strong desire for love.

Aiba: Frankly speaking, it’s tough?!
