faded_lace: (Reia: cute)
[personal profile] faded_lace
I've found that not that many people translate the little sections at the back of the magazine, but a lot of the time, those are where the gems are, especially in terms of who's friends with who or who I ship with who. XD;; Since I like to be able to prove that I'm not crazy when I say that I have reasons for shipping people, and because I like sharing with the world, I have two more tiny little translations for you today~

First up is a little section called "Tattle-Tale Box" from the old "Johnnyful Box" section in the back of Myojo. This section no longer exists, but basically, Juniors would "anonymously" tattle on their friends. XD; I translated one little section where Reia talks about Shintaro and then Yoshizawa Shizuya, now in Travis Japan, talks about Reia.

Myojo 2012.10
Johnny's Tattle-Tale Box
Unexpected words and actions that these idols only show to their friends have been disclosed here! Watch out for the tattlers mischievously covering their eyes in the photos!
※ For the sake of privacy, one part of their faces have been covered.


N-mura R-a (Nakamura Reia)
Every time, I go to "The Shounen Club" filming with (Morimoto) Shintaro-kun, so we're really close friends! He always invites me places, too. But no matter what, Shintaro-kun is always two or three minutes later than the time that we agreed on (laugh). Also, he's totally a sore loser, so whenever we play a video game against one another, if he loses, he'll always say "One more time!!" until he wins.

Y-zawa S-ya (Yoshizawa Shizuya)
(Nakamura) Reia-kun can sometimes be really clingy! On TV, he seems like a grown up, but actually, he has some really kid-like traits, and will want to be babied by people like Jinguji, saying, "hey~~~ Jingujiii~~~"


And then next up is from the same issue from which I translated an article yesterday. There's been a section recently in the back where one Junior asks a question and they have four of that Junior's close friends answer and see who gets it right. The person who was asking the question in this issue was Jinguji, and... well, you can see who gets it right ^__~

Winkup 2014.1
Mutual Understanding Quiz
How much about each other do these juniors, who are all close friends, know? We got the statistics of how many people can answer questions that only a fanatic would know!

This month's question is from Jinguji Yuta!
What's the drink that I love so overwhelmingly much that you could definitely call it my favourite?

Somehow, the percent correct is only 25%.

Kishi Yuuta
Cafe Latte
Um… what could it be? I know he always drinks the same thing, but… coffee. No, cafe latte! That's what he drinks everyday, I think.

Iwahashi Genki
Energy Drink
No clue! Um, could it be that…? Vegetable juice! Oh, predictably, energy drink! For some reason, I think he drinks something with vitamins in it. It's because I often see him while he's drinking something.

Nakamura Reia
Clear soda*
Wait, I know it! What's it that he's always drinking? Oh, clear soda! I just remembered now. He always used to talk about it, like "Clear soda's like, my favourite." I just had a flashback of it!

Haniuda Amu
Energy Drink + Sports Drink
Huh, Jinguji's favourite drink? A mix of energy drink and sports drink! He always drinks it, you know. I'm not sure if he likes it, though (laugh).

Though he prefaced it with, "I think everyone will probably know it," Jinguji asked, "What's my favourite drink?" He said, "I'm pretty sure everyone will know it, to the extent that if you think of Jinguji, you think of this drink!" with confidence, but the only person who got it right was Reia. Yes, the answer was "clear soda"! Relatively few people seem to have absorbed the information, in comparison to being able to say things like "When you think of Jinguji…" (laugh).
*T/N: By clear soda, I mean like Sprite. In Japanese, the word for this is "cider," but it doesn't refer to apple cider, it refers to drinks like Mitsuya Cider.


Unrelatedly, today is seijin on hi, or Coming of Age Day!! This means I got off work and had a three day weekend, but also... Happy Coming of Age Ceremony to Kento, Yamada, Chinen, Yuto, Yuma, Hasshi, and of course, my beloved bb Yugo~

Ahaha awww, Shinchan ♥ And Reia wanting to be babied by Jinguji, awwww.

And of course Reia got it right~ I felt so bad when no one got Kishi's right XD;;;

Yappari Shinchan |D; And yeah, it's so cute. |D; That was before their relationship became... what it is now. |D Since that was more than a year ago...

Reia's the only person who actually bothers to listen when Jinchan endlessly talks about himself. |D;;; Also I find it super telling that he thought everyone would know and actually no one did XD

From: [identity profile] yomimashou.livejournal.com
Yeeah XD;; It's really interesting to get a little snippet of what things were like between them back then.

And yeah XD;; Jinchan thinks that what he does is super important to everyone |D

Date: 2014-01-14 04:25 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] faded-lace.livejournal.com
Yeah, I'm really curious XD I want to know more, but it might be difficult. Imagining Reia being babied by Jinchan is just... weird. |D;;;

Yuuup. I find it incredibly hilarious that he thought it was going to be ~~~so easy. oh Jinchan. Believe it or not, the world doesn't actually revolve solely around you.

And yup |D;;; Surprise~

Wouldn't Hasshi, Yamada, and everyone born in 1993 have celebrated their coming-of-age last year?

Date: 2014-01-13 08:43 pm (UTC)
From: [identity profile] mistyamadarioka.livejournal.com
because attendees are those whose 20th birthday falls between April 2 of the previous year and April 1 of the current year.

From: [identity profile] snowqueenofhoth.livejournal.com
Ah, that makes sense. I knew that some people are still 19 at the ceremony, but I guess I thought it was like man/woman of the year where people from the same year celebrate together. Wasn't sure how the year got defined.

From: [identity profile] faded-lace.livejournal.com
I can't say that I'm 100% positive, but yeah, like the person above me said, I was under the impression that the seijin-year was April to April and that most of the people who did seijinshiki were already of age by seijin no hi. A Japanese google search of any of those names and "seijinshiki" landed me on a number of blogs and tweets where Japanese fans were anticipating Yamada/Hasshi/Chinen/Yuto's seijinshiki, so I think they did have them yesterday? Also, I have an acquaintance who was born in late spring in 1992 and she did her seijinshiki in 2013, so she was already 20 at the time. ^^;

Thank you~
ahhh obviously Reia knows that!! *OTP feelings* and is nice to see that Shintaro and Reia are close friends yet, and Shizuya, you are right! XDDD

Date: 2014-01-13 11:41 pm (UTC)
From: [identity profile] faded-lace.livejournal.com
Yeah, of course Reia's the only know who pays attention when Jinguji rambles on and on about himself. XD;; And Reia and Shintaro's friendship is adorable. ♥

ReiaxShintaro again!!!! I seriously love how close they are. Hearing about the two of them never gets old. Lol. we already knew Shin is a sore loser. Mr. Negative. <3

Thanks for this.

I know, their friendship is so adorable. I love that they've been friends for so long, and that they still hang out even though they're in different groups now. But yes. XD Good thing Reia is a good sport. XD;

You're welcome! Thanks for reading.

To tell you the truth...I really love negative Shintaro cuz he's adorable when he sulks and he seems more his age when he does it. And it would be awesome if those two got a drama role together. ;___;

Date: 2014-01-13 11:42 pm (UTC)
From: [identity profile] faded-lace.livejournal.com
Yeah, I agree, it's so cute when he pouts, ♥ and oh my gosh that would be so adorable. ;____; I hope that they can! Reia deserves a drama role.

He is totally adorable. He's had the same sulky pout since he was little!!!!

Could you imagine it tho! It would be epic...and fun considering their size difference. XD

It's so cute. ;~;

It really would |D;; It would be funny if Shintaro played someone way older than Reia considering that Reia is actually a few months older than Shintaro. XD;

Date: 2014-01-14 12:33 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] rorychan.livejournal.com
OMG THAT WOULD BE SO HILARIOUS!!!!

Well, Shintaro seriously looks like he's in his mid 20's and Reia looks his own age. XD It would be pretty funny. I could just see Reia complaining the whole time behind the scenes.

Date: 2014-01-14 12:43 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] faded-lace.livejournal.com
Ahaha. It would be especially great if Shintaro was supposed to be Reia's older brother or something. I hope this really happens XD;

Date: 2014-01-14 01:06 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] rorychan.livejournal.com
Ahahahaha, I can imagine all the complaints from Reia!! He'd be like, "It's all your fault for being so huge!!" And there is Shintaro with his mega confused face.

Date: 2014-01-14 04:23 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] faded-lace.livejournal.com
Awww XD So cute. I really want to see this now.

Date: 2014-01-14 04:33 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] rorychan.livejournal.com
Shintaro would have no idea why Reia is even mad. His obliviousness is cute too. <3 Awwwww This is kind of fic material isn't it? XD

Date: 2014-01-14 04:41 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] faded-lace.livejournal.com
Ahaha, it is XD I've been wanting to write a fic about the two of them...

Date: 2014-01-14 04:48 am (UTC)

OMG YOU SHOULD!!!!!! I will love you forever and ever! ;___;

I'll do my best. XD I can't promise anything but I definitely want to write a fic about the two of them. ^^

Yes well, Reia's basically the only one who can put up with Jinchan, so... XD;;

It's so cute. |D; He's still a baby on the inside! And he and Reia are adorable bffs.

Shintarouuuuuu ;x; I hope he and Reia get to be in something together again someday.

From: [identity profile] faded-lace.livejournal.com
Me too ;___; Or that Reia gets to be in drama at all someday T___T;; Japanese 2channers' theories on why Reia hasn't had a drama include:
→higher ups in Johnny's want to monopolize him for themselves
→he would be cuter than the girl
→there are no girls' roles for boys
→he already perfectly plays the role of "Reatan"

idek. XD;

What's the drink that I love so overwhelmingly much that you could definitely call it my favourite?

jinguji never does things by halves does he hahaha <3333

i love how perceptive and thoughtful reia is ;~~; <3

Date: 2014-01-28 02:50 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] faded-lace.livejournal.com
Yeah, seriously XD Though it cracked me up that he thought it was going to be so obvious that everyone would get it, because of course everyone pays 100% attention to what Jinguji does all the time... and then only Reia got it, because Reia's a really perceptive person. XD;

I know. ;____; It's so sweet. He really just seems like an amazing friend.

Of course Reia would get it right, of course he would. X3 ♥

Right? ♥ Jinchan pretends like he's too good for Reia, but I love these little things that show how close they are.

Yup! He knows Jinguji really well ♥ It's adorable.
