AISubs v3.4
Now, let's get started!
First of all, we have this corner!
Idol's treasure video!
Behind-the-scenes on camera!
First of all, we have Nintendo's history on VTR.
Please have a look!
Tonight, legendary popular idols will gather!
First of all, let's follow their debut!
Time goes back!
1980!
Along with her sympathy, new era of idol singers has begun!
Seiko Matsuda's record debut!
Among young girls, Seiko-chan cut is very popular!
In 1982, Matsumoto Io...
Hayami Yu...
Nakamori Akina...
Koizumi Kyoka...
Horichi Emi...
Ishikawa Hidemi and other idol singers debuted one after another!
They were called "the 82-year-old group of flowers"!
In the same year, a big hit song was played in Osaka!
Yes, Matsumoto Hamada was also part of the 82-year-old group of flowers!
In 1985, drama starring Saito Yuki, "Sukebandeka" was a big hit!
In the second movie, "South Side"
In the third movie, Asaka Yui appeared!
It became a popular series starring idol singers!
In the same period of time, in the evening variety show "Sunset Nyan Nyan" (Nyan Nyan at Midnight)
Onyanko Club had a big break!
National champion Sayuri...
Watanabe Ninayo...
Watanabe Marina...
Kedao Shizuka Nana...
Many popular idols were born!
According to the program...
At this hour, boys disappeared from the streets!
Such "Sunset Nyan Nyan" ended in 1987!
In Osaka's evening, it's 4 o'clock!
Who cares?!
It doesn't matter!
It doesn't matter to us!
I'm from downtown Matsumoto. And my name is Tamura Masakazu.
Tamura Masakazu!
No, you're not, Mr. Katsura! You're such a useless guy!
I'm not such a useless guy!
In Kansai, he's known for his legendary popularity.
When he's watching a show, he's told that students have disappeared from the city.
But in the 90s, popular song shows ended one after another, and idol singers faced winter.
In the midst of all of this, in 1998, an idol group suddenly appeared on an audition show and won first place 100 times!
Morning Musume.
The members, Yaguchi Mari, was active in Hasei Unit, Tanpopo, and Minimonide.
And in 2005, AKB48 started their activities as idols you can go see.
The first director of AKB48 was Minomi Takahashi!
The number one singer in the group is Nana Okada!
And the third director is Miyon Mukaichi!
Now, they've grown into a national idol group!
This time, along with idol singers' legendary videos, we'll get to know their debut history and love life!
There's a lot of idol videos out there.
While we're at it, could you tell us about your debut?
My face has changed all along!
This program is brought to you by these sponsors.
There is one more person who knows about idols.
Someone we can't reach.
It's this person.
Hello!
Good afternoon! It's Christmas!
I want to go out!
But if it's about idols, please leave it to me!
That's right!
I have a lot of secrets and sad stories.
Thank you for coming today!
Thank you!
Here is the first treasure video!
Sayuri Kokusho.
She appeared on a live singing show.
She sang "Masaka no Utai".
Let's watch the video.
Sayuri Kokusho's second single.
It's her first time appearing in an Oricon.
"Natsu wo Matenai".
Pay attention to her singing.
Why are you doing this to me?
Let's ask her one more time.
Secretary? Why did you stop singing?
She's not coming back.
Secretary, what's wrong?
Isn't it?
It's like, "It's mine!"
Is it similar?
It's like, "Here's the result!"
Is it really similar?
What's wrong?
It's mine!
No, it's not.
Isn't it?
No, it's not.
It's only one night.
Idols' songs have four or eight verses.
They start like this.
But at first, "It's mine!" comes out of the highest part of the song.
So, I couldn't get a speaker like now.
It was too far away.
And the audience's reaction.
Yes.
So, I couldn't understand it and removed it.
It's amazing.
The fans think it's a new song.
I know the lyrics, but I don't know the song.
But there is definitely a happening in a live show.
Really?
When I was in the top 10...
This is also live.
Yes, Natsuiro Nanshi was in the top 10.
There were two breaks in front of me, but they flew away.
Suddenly, Kumehiroi was in 7th place this week.
At that time, I was still in the dressing room.
At that time, I was in the dressing room with Matsuda Seiko.
Kumehiroi looked at the monitor and said, "Isn't it Yuu-chan next?"
I was in a hurry to put on my costume.
Kumehiroi was in 7th place this week.
Natsuiro Nanshi was in 7th place this week.
I was in 3rd place this week.
I didn't put lipstick on my lips, so I held it in one hand and hung sandals.
I had Horichemi-chan put it on me.
Shoes?
Shoes were already worn out.
It wasn't like that anymore.
It was like, "Yes!"
When I was in the top 10...
This is not a happening, but...
When I was waiting behind the mirror gate...
There was a time when I went out with Koizumi Kyoko.
At that time, Koizumi-san suddenly said, "Yuu- chan, let's do a voice comparison."
He took off his shoes and tried to do a serious voice comparison.
I also took off my shoes and did a voice comparison with him.
Koizumi-san was a little expensive.
Koizumi-san won!
Something like that.
You're saying bad things!
For me, it was a happy thing.
Did you have anything with Nakamori-san?
At the top 10...
I was in Terawakira-san's red chair.
Terawakira-san's red chair!
It's a special chair, isn't it?
Yes!
I've always wanted to sit in it.
But, I was whispered to sit only in Terawakira- san's chair.
It was like a urban legend.
I've always wanted to sit in it!
Since the rehearsal, I've always wanted to sit in it.
Then, Nakamori Akina-san...
Wouldn't it be okay for me to sit in it for a little while?
Whose words are those?!
Don't say it like that!
Really, like this... "Wouldn't it be okay for me to sit in it for a little while?"
She said it like that, so...
I thought it was now or never...
And you sat in it?
I sat in it!
But it was a little uncomfortable to sit in it.
It sank a little deeper than other chairs...
It was soft...
I was so happy, I still have memories of it...
Yamushi-san, do you have any?
I was moved by something...
I was moved by being able to perform with Downturn-san...
A long time ago, Matsumoto-san would give nicknames for each Morning Musume.
Ah, like "hey, hey, hey", right?
And Fukudansuka would call me "ginnan"...
They called you "ginnan"...
And I finally got a nickname, too...
Matsumoto-san, do you remember?
I remember...
Eh, really?!
It was like a love hotel refrigerator...
It was so small...
If you pushed it a little, it would pop...
Gokushan-san, you're laughing too much...
Downturn-san, did you have any idols you liked back then?
Ah, what about you, Hana-san?
Back then, I liked...
Sakura the Junko...
And Ishii no Mako-chan...
So, you liked Momoe-chan and Junko-chan...
I liked Momoe-chan...
And Junko-chan...
And for school uniforms...
You could get either Kanko or Junko-chan for Momoe- chan's underwear...
And for first and third grade courses...
There were books...
So, Io-chan, do you have any memories?
Yes, for me it's a happening...
But now it's like a trauma...
Back then, you could release a new song in three months...
And I was always recording...
It was fast...
And I finished recording my new song...
And the next day...
I did the choreography...
And the next day...
I sang it in a live broadcast...
There were a lot of things like that...
And back then...
There was only one song that I couldn't remember the lyrics of...
There's a song called "Kira Kira" on TV...
Do you remember it?
Yes...
Who couldn't remember it?
It was amazing...
The lyrics were by Itoshi Shigesato-san...
And it was full of "kira kira"...
You said "kira kira" a lot, didn't you?
Before that, catchy copies like "kira kira" of "watashi no hitomi" or "nantoka nantoka kira kira"...
While I was singing, I was like "what's next? What's next?" and I couldn't remember.
And in the end, I had to sing "kira kira" of "nanimo kamo ga"...
I wanted to sing "kira kira" of "nani ga nan demo"...
Well, it's a bad word for Itoshi-san...
It's a little...
Matsumoto Io-san's third single, "kira kira" from "terebi no kuni".
This is Io-san, who makes mistakes in lyrics in a singing show where she appeared five days before the release of the record.
"kira kira" of "nanimo kamo ga"...
She's still singing like that!
In a way, she's a genius.
It's like the second singer that appeared before was mixed up.
But "kira kira" of Itoshi-san was good, too!
Samada-san! Can I say something about Io-san's song?
Itoi-san is not an adult anymore, right?
"kakechauzo" (I'll hang up)
We were more embarrassed about it.
There was such a thing.
There is such a thing, too.
Speaking of Io-san, there is a song called "nagareboshi ga suki".
Ozaki Yami-san is making it.
It's a route that starts with "toki ni aiwa".
When you sing "toki ni", there is a part where you can at least believe in one line of "nagareboshi".
But "un" is a very high pitch.
You can't sing it there.
In the end, that "un" part is actually changed by Ozaki Yami-san's singing.
Actually.
It's only one letter.
Only this part?
Only this part can be believed in.
Only one letter?
Only one letter.
So we've prepared a song.
First of all, can you listen to the part of the song?
Yes, we'll play it for you.
It was released in 1984.
In the eleventh single, Ozaki Yami-san wrote and composed "nagareboshi ga suki".
Instead of Io-san, who couldn't sing because of the high driving part,
this is the part Ozaki Yami-san sang.
Wow, that's amazing.
Please listen to it one more time.
Thank you.
As I listen, I don't know if Ms. Kosaki is singing.
IA, how was it when you listened to it?
I don't know if it will come out now.
I think I had a stuffy nose that day.
You chose a day when you didn't have a stuffy nose.
Later, when I was told that I did only this part for you,
I was like "what?!" and I was shocked.
But you haven't sung it on TV?
I have, I have.
What were you doing then?
I don't know if I was singing with the sound off or not,
but I think I was singing properly.
I see.
I didn't know if it was me or not,
and for the first time today, I thought it might be Ami-san.
It's only in your eyes, but if you listen to it now, it's like that.
And for AKB, isn't it hard to memorize lyrics and choreography?
That's right, but it's harder to memorize lyrics than dancing.
The lyrics come on the day of the music video shoot.
So you don't have time to memorize it.
For AKB, we had a staff who memorized the lyrics first.
For idols, you have to take a lip-sync video,
but if you don't memorize the lyrics, you can't sing.
So the staff, behind the camera,
if it's a song like "Everyday Kachusha",
they would take off their kachusha and sing like "kachusha, take it off, so you can untie your long hair".
They would guide you?
Yes, they would guide me and I would sing along.
There were a lot of times like this.
Yes, every time.
They would guide me first every time.
Even now.
Please watch the actual video.
On the second day of release, AKB's 41st single "Everyday Kachusha"
hit a million sellers!
In fact, the lyrics hadn't been decided until just before,
and behind the scenes of the music video shoot, it's like this...
KACHUSHA!
While taking it off...
Oh my god!
You suddenly...
The staff looked ahead so you wouldn't get the lyrics wrong while you were shooting.
Wow!
So, if you look at your lips...
Oh my god!
It's dangerous for the members to meet each other, but...
That's why there are a lot of image scenes that don't have much to do with lips.
In the music video of "7 minutes and 20 seconds", the singing scene was only 48 seconds.
That's terrible.
Is it still like that?
Even now.
Mr. Akimoto makes the lyrics to the last minute and makes them better, so it's like this.
There are some lyrics that I thought were lame.
Then say it!
There is a song called "green flash".
That's right!
It was terrible.
"Green flash" ended with "midoriiro".
Oh, it wasn't in English.
At first, I was like, "Why does it have to end with "midoriiro"?"
"Why does it have to end with "midoriiro"?"
There are a lot of "yasushimisu".
"Yasushimisu"?
"Yasushimisu" is there?
You wrote it for me.
It's not like you're all singing.
Is there a way to explain it like that?
I'm singing.
Here is the next high-quality video.
It's in the middle of the final race of Matsumoto Iyo Idol Swimming Competition.
Please watch the video.
Familiar with special programs in the 1980s,
a new all-star swimming competition.
Matsumoto Iyo, who swam and advanced to the final, is in the water.
It has started.
The girls are 25 meters away from each other in the final.
Oh, someone bumps into the cameraman in the water.
Matsumoto Iyo bumps into the cameraman in the water.
In the meantime, Hayami Yuu is in the water.
She can't swim, but why does she go to the finals?!
I really can't swim.
I can only swim about five meters.
After that, I can't breathe and I feel like I can't do it anymore.
When we're sitting like this on this show,
Who will go to the finals next?
"Who is it?" "Who is it?" "Who is it?"
It's me, Hayami Yuu.
Huh? It's the finals already. I'm going to the finals.
I'm like, "Will it work out?"
And I'm swimming in a line like this.
But it's not decided yet.
Can't you say you can't swim?
Oh, I wish I could say that.
But there was a cameraman inside of me,
so I didn't like it.
But in the swimming competition, it was fun to ride in front of you.
Oh, I hear that a lot.
In the morning, we went to Oiso Long Beach.
The directors and producers took care of me and gave me a room.
And we all played cards.
Wow!
What kind of games did you play?
I played Kawaii Naoko-san, Toshi-chan Matchi, and Shibu-gaki.
Wow!
With these guys?
So who had the most money?
What do you mean "money"?
How much did you have?
And I drank orange juice and Coca-Cola. I was very healthy.
Really?
That's enough!
You said it yourself!
You drank a lot of alcohol!
You really think so now, don't you?
Yes, I do.
But you were really healthy, weren't you?
You were probably healthy, weren't you?
"Probably"?
You were probably healthy.
You should have been.
And in the summer, the staff set up something like a test of courage for me.
But no one took it.
And when I went back, I said, "I was scared! I was scared!"
And we all did push-ups together.
Do you remember that?
Really?
But it was always Trump, wasn't it?
It was always Trump.
It was always a Trump game.
But if you're in the same room as idols, won't your manager get mad at you?
That's right.
It was a secret from my manager.
He said, "Good night!"
And we all went into our rooms one by one.
And you didn't make any mistakes at all?
I didn't make any mistakes, but I didn't say, "Oh, we're dating because we're wearing a pair of bracelets!"
Can you tell me who you're dating?
It's been 40 years, so I forgot.
Asahi-san, how did you get into swimming?
I made my debut in swimming when I was 20 years old, and I was pretty good at swimming.
I swam hard, scored a goal and stood up, and I was in first place.
I was like, "I did it!" and I was still out of breath.
I was like, "What's going on?" and I opened my eyes a little and everyone was about to score a goal.
Then, someone said, "You did it! You're in first place! Congratulations!"
First place?
Yes.
So you were in second place?
I don't know if I was in second place or not, but everyone was scoring goals like crazy.
But you're still a rookie!
Of course, when I scored a goal, everyone was like, "Who are you?!"
Who was interviewed at the time?
Yuu-san.
No, no, no, I'm not like that, I'm number one over there.
But you're swimming, so you probably don't know.
I don't know.
You're swimming in front of me.
No, no, no, no.
That's ridiculous.
So you don't resent me at all?
No, of course not.
Then why are you here now?
What about you, Mr. Kokusho?
I've had a similar experience.
I was in second place, but it felt like it never happened.
I was in first place at the record company competition.
And when I was in second place, the microphone went like this.
And I didn't appear in any of the videos after that.
Oh, you have a video of that?
Yes.
After that...
This is so scary!
Before her debut, Sayuri Kokusho and Minami Takahashi appeared in "Otakara Ezo"!
That's so cute!
Sayuri Kokusho appeared in "Hyakumettaresa," which aired in 1985 and was a record company competition sports festival.
Was it going to get a lot of attention from Hidemi Ishikawa, who was popular at the time?
Sayuri Kokusho said...
Hidemi and Ishikawa are competing against each other.
Kokusho and Ishikawa are in a row.
And...
The fierce battle is won and Kokusho is in first place.
But...
The human taboo is focusing on Ishikawa, a popular idol.
On the other hand, Kokusho and Ishikawa are in second place.
While the record company is very happy, the staff is looking at them with white eyes.
It was a moment when the entertainment industry was taught mercilessness.
This is a little...
Your staff is a little loud, isn't it?
No, that's...
CBS and Sony were just made at the time of the company.
Anyway, they said that all rights should be shown to the camera.
They said that CBS and Sony should be shown.
So I ran as fast as I could.
I was running with that intention.
And I got angry after that.
Who are you?
But if you do it in that order,
don't you want me to tell you in advance?
You are in third place.
If you do it after this, it's a bit of a shock.
Well, we're doing it seriously.
Maybe it's a bit of an era from now on.
I wonder what kind of era they've been through.
The position of the camera in the swimming competition.
I think it's going to be an NG.
AKB.
Was there a swimming competition like that?
There was a swimming competition like that in AKB.
Of course, there was no underwater camera like that.
I was a little surprised that there were men and women involved in it.
I see, I see.
There was also a rumor of "porori".
There was a rumor of "porori" in Kiba Prefecture.
At that time.
But we weren't "porori".
No, of course you weren't.
I see.
But you were a "shichunikuri" the night before.
I didn't say that.
Let's see the next video.
Here it is!
Minami Takahashi's famous audition.
In fact, he stayed until the end.
Let's watch the video.
17 years ago, Minami Takahashi stayed until the end of his audition.
What is it?
Triple Talent Scout Terrible.
He was a triple scout caravan that produced many stars.
He was 14 years old at the time.
He was still young.
He is a good dancer and powerful vocalist.
The Grand Prix winner is Yurie Nabiki.
It was fun and relaxing.
I didn't know it was such a name.
It was a super-hot show of AKB and Kanye West.
It was popular in Scotland, wasn't it?
That's right.
I took it and went all the way to the end.
Well, I fell down, but...
There is a saying that I entered AKB because I fell down.
It's a pretty famous audition, so...
Outside of the audition venue...
There are a lot of scouts.
And the girls who got caught up in it.
They're waiting for you to chase you up.
I got a flyer for AKB's audition from that person.
But it smelled really bad.
This is Akihabara's first idol.
"Akimoto Yasushi Produce." It said.
At the time, I didn't know about Akimoto.
I was like, "Who is this guy?"
That's right.
If you say it like that in Japan, you'll look like a traitor.
After I auditioned for AKB and passed,
Actually, the judge of "Horipro" that I took was also Akimoto.
It's like a rumor.
Didn't you drop Takahashi Minami to get into AKB?
That's what happened.
I confirmed it with Akimoto.
You confirmed it.
"Is it like that?" I said.
"Well, of course." He said.
You've probably forgotten a lot.
Look, what you're doing is already a reflection.
It's a reflection.
Yes, I'm a triple scout character.
But I was eliminated in the first round.
First round?!
Yes, after the first round.
How did you debut?
After that, I was scouted in Harajuku.
The next day or the day after that, there was an audition for Toshi's younger sister.
They told me to go and try it out.
When I went and tried it out, they told me to come back in a week.
When I went, it was for a press conference as Toshi's younger sister.
What?!
After I was scouted and became Toshi's younger sister,
it had only been about a week or ten days.
I really felt like a Cinderella girl.
Wow!
Yes.
I have something from Toshi for Io.
Good evening, everyone.
Io and I have been together for a long time since I debuted as my younger sister.
One year on Valentine's Day, she brought me handmade chocolate and asked me to give it to Matchi.
I don't have chocolate.
Io, I hope you will stay healthy from now on.
She has a big heart.
Well, you know.
She has something to think about.
You liked Matchi, didn't you?
I liked all of them, but I especially liked Matchi.
Every time I see you, you say you like Matchi.
Asaka, you also auditioned.
Yes, I also auditioned for a scout.
I auditioned for a girl named Asaka Yui.
Her name was already decided.
Asaka Yui is an anime character.
When I got the award for Asaka Yui, I got a red stereo.
There was a picture on it.
At that time, red stereos were really rare.
You wanted it, didn't you?
I wanted it.
That's why I auditioned for it.
That's how I got Asaka Yui award.
Do you still have it?
Yes, I still cherish it.
You really wanted it.
Yes.
Can you show it to us?
I want to see it.
The red stereo that Asaka Yui still cherishes is this one.
Ta-da!
This is the stereo I wanted for my audition.
It's been 20 years since I last saw it.
I'm going to turn it on and watch it.
I don't know if you can hear me or not.
I'm going to turn on the cassette.
It's automatic.
Play.
It's moving.
I'm scared.
It's on.
Nothing is happening.
I'm going to fast forward.
What?
What's wrong?
Something's wrong.
It's not coming back.
How can I play it?
Cassette.
I don't think I can play it at all.
Is it okay for you to play it like that?
That's why...
You can't play it.
I wanted it.
It was a stereo 38 years ago.
Wow, wow, wow!
Even now, I'm really into it.
Amata-san, Amata-san!
Yes, yes!
Can I say something?
I have information about Asaka Yui-san.
Asaka Yui-san has a past that she wants to seal.
This is about her debut.
It's her debut single "Jacket".
This "jacket" doesn't satisfy Asaka-san at all.
That "jacket" is this!
It's this!
At the time, idols debuted with bare faces.
It was beautiful.
Country girls also sang with round faces.
It was also a little dazzling.
Yes, yes!
If we look at it in a good way...
We filmed it in Saipan.
The sandy beach was white and dazzling.
Three, two, one!
When I said "one", they told me to open my eyes.
I couldn't open my eyes at all.
This was all I could do.
At the time, I also strongly opposed it.
But before my debut, I went to a college student with this picture.
I asked him "how is it?" and he showed me some pictures.
This is the picture that Tokyo University students chose as the best one.
If you say it was correct...
I was a little cuter than I am now.
What is this?
This is so much fun!
After this, the idol group's dissatisfaction exploded!
The secret with those members was revealed!
Here, we will show you a special break that we don't usually show you!
As expected, old members are late.
Late.
Of course.
There are many things to do.
Of course.
They have to fix their makeup.
It's intense.
It's definitely not a competition.
Four, three, two...
Masuo-san!
Yes, yes!
You said "old members are late".
We said it together!
You said it!
The three of you said "your makeup is a little long".
No, when I came in, it was like this!
Yes, yes.
Well, that's what Iyaguchi said.
No, I didn't say it!
Stop it!
I definitely didn't say it!
We didn't even fix our makeup.
We didn't do anything.
A little...
A little, of course.
Really?
A little, right?
A little, yes.
And this is...
We didn't do much either.
I'm going to say a lot of things.
Yes, yes, it's a TV show.
Alright, alright.
Let's move on to the next one!
The next theme is...
"Idols are tough, but groups are too easy".
Takamina-san, what do you think of this?
It's tough.
The rehearsals are especially tough.
Even when I was there,
AKB, sister groups, overseas groups,
if it's a live rehearsal as a whole,
it's about 200 or 300 people.
That's right.
Even if you're just told where you stand,
it takes about 30 minutes.
If you think you'll be told where you stand in 30 minutes,
you go to the bathroom, eat something, get a massage,
and you think about it and say, "Stop it!"
That's right.
They're not people who can study.
I didn't know there were people like that.
People who get massages on their own.
There are people like that.
There are times when a trainer comes with us for a live show.
So there are about three people who are professional massagers.
For example, like Tomo-chin.
She goes like this and gets a massage.
Hey, Tomo-chin, come on!
That's a lot of work.
It's not like that at all.
That's right.
It's a lot of work with Kouhaku too.
With Kouhaku, we often do it as a group.
So there's a lot of waiting space.
The road near the NHK hall is very narrow.
We stand in one or two rows and hang on the wall.
That's right.
There are also people who have done back dancing for about 100 people.
It's really hard to pass each other.
It's like a tramega again.
Everyone, hang on the wall!
It's like a tramega.
But you're the director now, right?
That's right.
You've seen it, right?
Yes.
What kind of situation are you in now?
At the time, there were probably a lot of sharp- tongued members.
But now, we're really serious.
If you're sharp-tongued, it's because you all quit dancing.
It's not a good way of saying it.
But if you're that sharp-tongued, you won't know if one or two of you break down.
When we filmed a dance scene for a music video with a large number of people,
it seemed like there were about two of us missing.
But no one noticed.
When we filmed the song "Summer Sounds Good",
it was overseas, by the sea.
There wasn't anyone in the dance scene, was there?
There were about two of us left in the hotel.
What were you doing?
It seemed like you were sleeping.
You were sleeping in the bus.
You were sleeping, you were left behind, and you finished filming the dance scene.
Even if you were still wearing a turban, you wouldn't know.
You were sleeping, you were left behind, and you finished filming the dance scene.
Even if you were still wearing a turban, you wouldn't know.
Yagui-san, how was "Morning Musume."? Was it hard?
We had our absolute boss, Yuko Nakazawa.
She would leave in the middle of a massage.
There wasn't anything like that at all.
She was doing it properly.
There wasn't anything like that at all!
But there is a rule as a group.
For example, where you sit or something like that, is it all decided?
Yes, the seats are all decided first.
Seniors sit in front of you and you move like a bus.
And the order you choose your lunch box.
And you choose your hairstyle and clothes from your seniors.
When you see your seniors doing their ponytail, you think "Oh no, I have to change it!"
If you change it, you can't change it, right?
That's right. Seniors can change it later.
Because it's all decided, we didn't argue about it.
Isn't there a rule like that in "Tengebe"?
No, there isn't!
There is?
For example, in "Buffalo Bus" the seats are all decided.
Seniors sit in the back and Takamina-san sits in the first seat closest to the exit.
Wait a minute!
So she doesn't know it herself.
She sits in the last seat.
She sits in the first seat closest to the exit and says "Let's go!" to everyone.
Is it decided?
It's decided among the juniors.
"This is Takamina-san's seat." I've been told that.
But the back seats are all decided, right?
The back seats of the juniors are all decided.
You look disgusted!
You're sitting alone, right?
You're using two or one seat.
Seniors use two or one seat.
But, how about you, Yaguchi-san?
Were you strict with people below you?
Yes, I was.
There were monsters like Tsuji-chan and Kako-chan.
They weren't human.
I told them not to run, and they ran.
It's weird, isn't it?
Once...
Don't laugh!
I told them not to run.
When you enter a room alone in a hotel,
when you're about to fall asleep,
the hallway is really noisy.
It was scary, so I peeked out of the hole.
Then, two people were turning around.
They were running from the corner.
It's a funny story.
I felt like I saw something I shouldn't have seen.
You shouldn't have been angry.
Yes, it was scary.
Did you receive an error message?
Yes, I did.
I was in a taxi.
Kako-chan and Tsuji-chan were on this side.
I was preaching all the time.
To you two?
Yes, I was preaching in the taxi.
Then, I received an email.
I wondered who it was.
It was Kako-chan.
I was like, "What?"
And next to me...
Shut up, you little brat!
So, you sent it to Tsuji-chan.
Yes, I did.
You thought you sent it to the wrong person.
I think she sent it to Tsuji-chan...
because she was thinking of me.
So, she sent it to me.
Rosé, say it again.
Shut up, you little brat!
But after that, I was shooting a magazine, and I went into the dressing room and cried my eyes out,
I'm angry for you guys!
But I'm crying because of you, you little brat!
No, you little brat!
How about you, Morning Musume? Is there a difference in members?
Well, there's a center called Natsumi Abe, and she's at the front of the line for her jacket photo shoot,
and when she saw the finished photo, she was like, "Natsumi Abe is the only one who didn't get a pin."
And there's a photo where all of the other members have their pins removed.
This is a real-life photo.
Even when we were shooting it, only Natsumi Abe was way in the front.
So I was like, "Huh? That's weird."
But when I realized that all of them were in the back, I realized that Natsumi Abe had her pin removed.
Even when you're shooting a calendar, you get a lot of discrimination, don't you?
Yes, we do.
Popular people have 12 calendars, so they take pictures of themselves.
Me, Nagoya Mika-chan, Kehara Aki-chan, and a horseman poured water on us and our pictures got all wet.
For solo debuters, they'd dress up as ballerinas or dress up as themselves.
There's a difference in the number of pictures.
Some of them have their pictures taken every year, and some of them only have one picture.
I think Kei-chan only had one picture.
I thought you'd say that.
Kei-chan and Yasuda always say that everyone goes abroad and has a lot of things like Saipan or Guam.
And Kei-chan's location is Azabujuba.
They say, "If you're 11 years old, you should go home."
Is it okay for you to say that?
Is it okay for idols to say they love each other?
Up to this point, it was provided by sponsors you see here.
Let's go. The next theme is...
"Idols are painful, sweet and dangerous love games".
Well, Yuu-chan, how was it? Did you feel that love was forbidden at that time?
At that time, I wasn't told that it was forbidden, but I was told to be careful not to talk too much with men.
I always felt that my manager's strict eyes were following me around.
Didn't you say anything like "please contact me"?
In the radio booth where my manager's eyes were away from me,
my manager couldn't hear me well in the radio booth.
So I tore off the phone number I wrote at the end of the script and got it.
Or I listened to a new song and got a record jacket.
And there was a phone number hidden in it.
I see.
That's what happened.
Anyway, my manager's eyes were stolen.
Is it like that for everyone? Is it like that for you, Yuu-chan?
That's right. I also got an album from a famous singer- songwriter.
And when I listened to it at home, I got a message saying "please call me".
Yes, we did.
Didn't we?
Yes, we did.
Back in the day, we would sit in front of the MC seat of a show,
and when someone was singing, in a dark place where we couldn't see,
we would give out our phone numbers.
Are you giving it out?
You sound like you're giving it out for a bad reason!
It's 100 yen!
100 yen!
Some people would give it out directly,
and some would say "something to you", and everyone would say "something to you",
like they were on a business trip.
But you were in Ieden at the time, right?
We were in Ieden.
We weren't in Ieden yet.
Yes.
So when we passed by each other, they would say "I'm going home when it's past 11 tonight".
Wow!
There's no way there are people like that in Long Beach!
That's very healthy.
That's the only part that's suddenly healthy!
That's amazing!
How about in Ieden?
No, no, no.
You didn't get a phone call?
Not even once.
Not at all.
Even now?
But it's dark in there, right?
That's why you're sitting in the back.
Even in Hinadan, we would look at each other like this.
Yes, we would look down and watch our performance.
You may not have spoken with other artists on a singing show.
No, we haven't.
That's true.
Especially when we're talking with Johnny's artists on a live show,
we only have extensions.
Yes, that's true.
Oh, really?
We don't have extensions.
We only have letters with bad words.
What?
Letters?
Oh, I see.
With a pair of scissors.
That's scary!
That's the era.
But in the morning, right?
When you were an idol, you were dating your husband, right?
Yes, yes.
Well, yes.
Yes, yes.
What kind of date did you have at that time?
When I go to the sea in midwinter at night, it's cold and there's no one there.
That's right.
It's dark and there's no one there.
So you've never been found, right?
No, I've only been found once.
Apparently, it went on for months in front of my house.
One day, I got in the car with my husband and went out of the house.
We were doing construction work.
We're doing construction work. Excuse me, please stop.
We were told like that and we stopped.
The construction workers took off their helmets and took off their work clothes.
The cameras...
Oh, that's what the reporters did.
Yes, the reporters were dancing in the dark.
That's right.
Your hands were busy at the time.
Yes, and we all took pictures.
We took pictures as if we were wondering which one would be shown.
I heard that you were also reported.
That's right.
I heard that you were also reported.
It was delivered to the agency and I confirmed it.
It's me. There's no mistake.
I knew you were reported.
From now on, we'll only talk about codes when we talk on the phone.
We made a code table for each other.
Look at this code table.
Wow!
Tell me about it. How do you use it?
For example, if you want to say "a", you say "a" with "a-no-ichi".
If you say "b-no-ichi", you say "a-i".
If you say "a-no-yon", you say "ta".
If you say "b-no-ichi", you say "i-a-i-ta-i".
It's strange.
But you can use it for about five hours every day.
I see.
It's a code that you can decode right away.
But...
About once in a few months...
When we meet up...
You have to change it.
He makes a new one for me.
You have to update it.
Of course.
I have to update many of them.
Yu-chan, have you been photographed before?
Yes, I have.
When we debuted, "photography weekly" was called.
There's more!
It's obvious that "photography weekly" is surprised!
Yu-chan, have you been photographed before?
Yes, I have.
When we debuted, "photography weekly" was called.
They told me not to be photographed.
I was photographed in a supermarket.
The next day, I got a call from my agency.
They knew we were dating.
But they told me to be photographed again.
I heard that happens.
They told me to be photographed in a cafe in Aoyama.
But the cameraman wasn't there.
The manager told me to come on that day.
We went there.
I didn't know where I was being photographed.
I didn't know.
I didn't have a cell phone.
I got a call from a cafe.
They told me to be nice because we didn't get along.
I didn't know when and where I was being photographed.
You were photographed nicely.
I was photographed again.
You were photographed again.
But you didn't wear your debut single's jacket.
I didn't know.
