DISH//'s Remote Word Wolf

DISH// plays Word Wolf from their own homes! Guess who the wolf is?

I had the DISH// Word Wolf Game videos subbed and uploaded in my previous YouTube channel, but that channel's already deleted 😅 I didn't realize until very recently that I haven't reposted these yet, so I'll share them here today! 😆 Not sure if this is worth mentioning, but I added a few changes and improvements to the subs. Please enjoy!

"When you get infected with the Coronavirus, you're supposed to announce a comment of apology, right? That made me feel a bit uneasy... Even when taking proper measures, the possibility of getting infected is still there, so I think it isn't something you're supposed to feel sorry about. But when I got infected myself, the reality was that countless apologies would well up inside of you. When the body weakens, mental health also grows negative. In my case it started with chills, followed by a fever. Even after my fever went down, I couldn't taste nor smell anything for a while. Fortunately, it didn't get worse, but I was quite depressed."

He wants to convey a message that will inspire and give someone a push on the back. Kitamura thinks so even while acting or singing. Even when he got infected with the Coronavirus, those feelings didn't change.

"Not knowing what could happen tomorrow makes you think negatively. But then I realized that doing such thing was no good. That would mean losing against the Coronavirus. Currently, people infected with the virus and people who aren't infected with it alike find tomorrow quite implausible. They probably don't carry any hope. I know many people are having a hard time dealing with Coronavirus, but I don't want them to lose hope. After staying in bed for a few days, my physical condition gradually improved. I absent-mindedly sat on a chair on the balcony for about three hours. I was alone, doing nothing, just sitting. But I felt truly alive. I felt like I could see a view that was different from before. I've been running recklessly for the past few years, but it's because I've stopped that I was able to learn things. First, believe in yourself, then believe in tomorrow. Do that, and hope will also be born. Having gotten infected, I feel that I have grown stronger now. I want to let many people know what I felt."

There are things you can gain in two weeks.

"Somehow, amidst my helplessness, I felt the affection of various people. My parents whom I couldn't meet in person left me plenty of meals at my doorstep, my bandmates talked to me more than usual, my old friends and friends whom I usually don't get to meet contacted me. All this time I thought I was running alone, but I'm actually surrounded by a lot of companions treading on the same path as I am. I am thankful and happy for that. I actually made four songs while I was on break. One of them I sang exactly just how I felt during that time."

When he got back to work, he felt the warmth of his friends.

"When I got back to the scene of the filming where I last left off, everyone was saying 'Thank you'. We had been filming under the intense heat for a long time, then there was a two-week break because of me. They said that if the filming continued in such a state, someone would have collapsed for sure. Our concert was also postponed, but because of that it was possible to gain more spectators and we were able to hold it at a time when there were less restrictions. I did think that I caused inconvenience, but because the people around me said it in such ways I became more optimistic. That saved me."

And now, Kitamura Takumi has started running again, with eyes looking only at the future.

"I felt that I've become more creative this year. I've made a lot of songs, I've stood in the recording studio for long periods, I've given detailed directions. I think about whether to play the bass with fingers or a pick. I'm conscious about the kind of atmosphere I want to bring. I was a bit surprised to learn that I'm the type of person who's particular about the small details.

I also had the opportunity to be photographer for the photobook of my actor friend, Kanta Sato. It was a very enjoyable experience. I won't say I'm glad that I got infected with the Coronavirus, but because of it I learned a lot. As to what kind of influence it will have on me, I look forward to it myself."

"Recently I’ve been thinking… A while back, or more like ever since, my singing voice has been bad. That’s why I’d usually have a few worries right before a live performance.

'Will today turn out fine?'

'Can I do it?'

Despite worrying so much, when I get onstage everyone is there. Just like how To-i called out [to everyone] just now... I realized that I’m not living my life all by myself. That I don’t have to carry everything on my own. I truly believe so.

We each have our families. We have our siblings. We have our friends. We have our lovers… I did say this in the middle of a song earlier, but if ever there are those who think that they’re alone... That’s not true, I must say. It’s exactly what I’m experiencing right now.

To be honest, I thought I was going to collapse.

To be honest, I was on the verge of collapsing during today’s live.

That’s how fired up I was. That’s how much I wanted to respond to everyone.

The postponement last August was certainly because of me. I ended up making everybody wait so I felt that I had to respond somehow (through singing). As a result, I did so until I had only “1 HP” left in me. I was at that point and yet I was seeing everyone in front of me… being so enthusiastic. Each and every one of your expressions I could see clearly.

That moment saved me. It saved my band mates as well.

Living can be painful, after all. It can be difficult. And because of that, there’s so much to worry about.

But in the end… It’s wonderful! Life is.

Living is wonderful.

Singing is wonderful.

The fact that there’s tomorrow is also wonderful. And that… Is because you’re part of it.

If you believe that being able to support DISH// is “The best”, I’m glad about that too.

The same applies to everyone. The fact that there is tomorrow... Isn’t that the greatest? Isn’t living such a wonderful thing?

The next time we meet... The next time we see you guys, please show us those smiles again.

We too, until that time comes, will live looking forward to each and every day. Let’s see each other again with these smiles."

"The '10-year history of DISH//' isn't all bliss. There were a lot of setbacks, but at the same time there was as much laughter. The 10 years were a mixture of such.

We weren't even a band at first. It was from there when we thought, "We want to become a band", so we learned our instruments seriously. But it was no good. We tried, and yet it was no good. Daichi joined us, and it still wasn't enough. Despite having gone through all that, I think there are a number of things from back then that we want to go back to. Nevertheless, we're simply people who love being a band that loves music. Simply because there are people who support self-indulgent guys like us that we are blessed beyond compare. There are people who accompany DISH// despite us being willful. There's no way to express how grateful we are, which is why we wish to repay your kindness through the music and lyrics we create. As such, even after another 10 years, when we'll be 36 or 34--though I presume that we'll still be as self-indulgent as ever--the one thing that will never change is our feeling of wanting to convey something to all of you.

When we became a band of four, we had a talk about changing the name "DISH//" as a way of moving forward with a different, or new setup.

"No. I think it is only right that we continue as DISH//". "Even if we went from four to five [members], then from five back to four, we will always be DISH//". A bandmate said that. Which is true. We had to keep moving forward.

Because of that day, the present exists. We did a song for that fresh start, thus we started again. With your support, I believe that we've all moved forward together. That's why the present exists, and tomorrow will be another day."

Nijiiro Karute Valentine's Spin-off

Nijiiro Karute ~ Dairantou Valentine hen ~

The story is set on Valentine's Day. Saku and Taiyou are fidgeting in the morning, hoping that they will receive chocolate from Masora, but Masora seems clueless and proceeds to head out for the day. With the two left behind, the situation expectedly turned unfavorable when they started to make fun of each other. Taiyou furiously dashes out of the clinic and becomes a runaway boy!

In the midst of the situation, Saku and Taiyou face a number of incomprehensible disasters...!

I'm happy and excited to announce that this subbing project is in collaboration with my awesome Slasher friend, sakura! It was a blast working on the project together as hokusaku! 🤍(Check out sakura's YouTube channel for lovely DISH// song translations, btw!)

We hope you enjoy watching the two hilarious episodes of the Nijiiro Karute Valentine's Spin-off as much as we did working on them!

Takumi Kitamura in A-Studio (2019)

Broadcasted March 8, 2019

Takumi Kitamura's beginnings and growth as an actor and musician, and life with his friends and family are openly talked about in the talk show A-Studio.

☆ Trivia: This is actually the very first video I've attempted to sub way back two years ago 😅 The attempt was mainly so that I'd know what they were talking about, since I wanted to know Takumi better. I shelved it unfinished knowing how very limited my translation and subbing skills were at that time. Admiring Takumi so much, I'd feel bad if I released a show about his life story very poorly subbed. 😆 

I was clearing up space for my laptop the other day and thank heavens I came across this subbing project again 'cause I realized my growth and improvement as a DISH// fansubber 🥲 I would never have decided to be one if I hadn't encountered Takumi and DISH//. Also, I wouldn't still be one today if not for my co-fans' and friends' kind support! Thank you all so so much! ❤ 

And of course, I'm glad that I was able to work on this again, this time with a bit more confidence, because I finally finished it! I can finally share it with everyone! Yay! 🥳

I hope you enjoy!

Kagefumi (2019)

- English subbed -

English title: Shadowfall

A 2019 drama film based on Hideo Yokoyama's mystery novel "Kagefumi" starring Masayoshi Yamazaki, Takumi Kitamura, and Machiko Ono.

Makabe Shuichi (Yamazaki) is a professional thief who sneaks into people’s homes as they sleep in the dead of night. However, after unwittingly stumbling upon an attempted murder during a routine break-in, Makabe finds himself recalling something that happened decades previously, the memory of which he’d entirely supressed.

I am not sure if there are any English subs availably posted for this film already, but I will still post anyway. :)

The story may not be the kind that the masses would generally favor, but the film has this "captivating misery" to it. It deals with themes of redemption, loneliness, and forgiveness of oneself for things the characters had no control over, though blamed themselves for. Plus, there are certain scenes that will leave you confused or surprised.

I've started working on "Kagefumi" about more than a month ago, and it was honestly very challenging. But I must say that it was totally worth the challenge. And of course, it's worth the watch as well :)

Thank you so much to @slasherrin for sharing the raw copy of this film ❤ More power to you! 😊

「Sakura」 (2020) Subbed

The 2020 film "Sakura", starring Takumi Kitamura (DISH//), Nana Komatsu, and Ryo Yoshizawa is now subbed!

This is my first ever subbed movie! @slasherrin on Twitter shared a clean raw copy of the film and asked if I could sub it, so I gladly did. 😊 (Thank you, Rin! ❤)

I was so excited and pumped up the whole time I worked on the subs. 💖

I love how deeply emotional this film is, plus I just can't get enough of Takumi's narrating voice 😭 

This wonderful film is definitely a must-see! I won't say any more, so by all means, please watch the movie 💕
