Shige on Nakamaru
On Koyama’s radio, Shige talked about the time he went out for a meal with Masuda, Nakamaru, Inoo, Chinen and Keito from HSJ. Shige: Masuda invited Nakamaru-kun first, then asked if I was going as well. We went for BBQ that day. Truth be told, the reason why Nakamaru picked up the tab was because he lost to Masuda and me when we decided who had to pay for it. Sorry for exposing the truth, Nakamaru-kun. Shige: Nakamaru-kun is a serious person. And even though he’s older, I think he’s cute. He’s kinda peculiar (or unique) but yet approachable at the same time. I saw the Mt. Fuji drawing he drew, and it looked just like a picture! I like Nakamaru-kun very much and I know he’s a good friend of Massu. I’ve come to realize that spending time with Nakamaru-kun makes one feel relaxed.
me: *is sick* aha i'll just sleep it off
me: *is sad* aha i'll just sleep it off
me: *is stressed* aha i'll just sleep it off
me: *thinks about life in general* aha i'll just sleep it off
Kamenashi
While drawing the members’ faces on the mandarin oranges, “What kinda face did he usually do? Ueda’s hairstyle and appearance have sorta remained the same, right? Nakamaru, too, didn’t change much but I think he radiates a sorta fluffy and peaceful aura.”
New year message To Ueda: You seem to have become sharper in terms of your character, but I thought that’s a good sign. It would be nice if it’s a fulfilling year.
To Nakamaru: With regards to the meet-up with the members from the same batch (i.e. Nakamaru, Masuda, Fujigaya and Tsukada), I’ve already given my schedule. I’m just waiting for Masuda to contact me.
Ueda
After he was done drawing the oranges, Ueda showed it to the staff and said, “You can easily tell who is who, right? (lol). Kame has this cool image whereas Nakamaru’s face looks like a cartoon character.” He def has a knack at identifying their features!
New year message To Kamenashi: I met Kame the other day, and he was still as cool as ever. How’s coming with your challenge at throwing a 120km/h fastball?
To Nakamaru: I met him the other day at work, and we do go out for a meal some time too. Are you not gonna change your hairstyle?
Nakamaru
Nakamaru who’s good at illustration. “Both of their noses and mouths are rather unique, though.” and there, he began drawing the oranges. ‘This is Ueda.“ "This is Kame.” The staff took a close look and realized the slight differences in each orange that clearly illustrated each member. Indeed, he’s a professional!
New year message To Kamenashi: I received a message from Masuda that he wants to do a meet-up, so let’s find one day to go together!
To Ueda: We just met recently, isn’t it? Well, Happy new year to you. Are you not gonna change your blond hair?
H: Have you gone to Hawaii lately?
N: I went 4-5 years ago.
H: With whom?
N: With Masuda-kun. We went together for no reason, to watch stars.
H: Just the 2 of you?
N: Yes. It was a bus tour, a field trip for watching the starry sky.
H: But it was with many people? You would stand out.
N: A little… There were about 10 other couples there, they were all newlyweds.
H: That’s tough.
N: I went with the newlyweds and Massu.
H: That would be misleading.
N: It would.
Awww. I mean awwwwwww. You two.
16.11.19 The Television Weekly “Zeus” Interview - Sakurai Sho [English translation]
週刊ザテレビジョン
“Sakurai Sho’s Johnny’s Team vs Ariyoshi Hiroiki’s Genin Team Battle Field of “Zeus” (究極バトル"ゼウス")” 3rd battle is to be released! The regular team leader Sakurai Sho and Ueda Tatsuya who performs as bodyguard are having passionate conversation!!
Sakurai: This time was difficult too~
Ueda: Yes right (giggle). I was sorry about the embarrassing status of Senpai in the two previous battle…
Sakurai: No no no no (giggle).
Ueda: Sho-kun is our team leader. For kouhais (後輩), we have to win this 3rd battle. Everyone was having such attitude. No way for us to lose consecutively three times! Anyway let’s go and win!! (Giggle)
Sakurai: I think it’s Ueda who creates such atmosphere. To give up everything [in order to win] with the attitude “we shouldn’t lose any more”, this really saved me.
— This is the first time Ueda joins the team and he already becomes a reliable hand of Sakurai team leader.
Sakurai: Really so!
Ueda: I’m happy about this!!
Sakurai: I have watched Honoo-no Taiiku-kai TV (炎の体育会TV, TBS) which Ueda performed, and thought that it would be great if the passion of that sort in that program will also appear in “Zeus”. I am relieved that Ueda joins us.
Ueda: When we formed the circle before battle, I was standing far from Sho-kun. And then, Sho-kun called me to stand beside him… That was amazing… I was happy (giggle).
Sakurai: I have a sense of relief like I have recruited a strong bodyguard (giggle). So I wanted Ueda to be beside me (giggle).
Ueda: In the future please do [continue thinking so]. If you go to any dangerous place, I am beside you (giggle). I shall guard you firmly!
Sakurai: … Bodyguard (giggle). Seriously [Ueda’s] presence was relieving.
Ueda: I like Sho-kun since past.
Sakurai: Ahhahahaha (laugh). Is that so?
Ueda: Because I am not good at talking, I didn’t specifically put [my feeling] in words. I all along watched Sho-kun’s TV dramas too.
Sakurai: I am happy!
Ueda: I even like Sho-kun more after “Zeus”… I feel the tenderness of Sho-kun, I feel that he watches over kouhais generously. [Sho-kun] is the team leader who creates good atmosphere so that kouhais can do their best. I want to work under this person.
— In order to “to fight and not to lose” there are new members joining this round of battle.
Sakurai: Kis-My-Ft2.
Ueda: Right. Kis-My (キスマイ), Sexy Zone.
Sakurai: And also A.B.C-Z.
— Straight off, new member Nikaido Takashi has a question for team leader.
Sakurai: What is that~ (giggle). I feel anxious.
— He was anxious about “Is my clamour [performance of side cast to create a vivid atmosphere] annoying?”
Sakurai: Ah~ this, since the filming finished I can talk about this. Though I said things like it was tingling, well… I have no thought about that [I mean nothing about that] (giggle).
Ueda: Ahhahahaha (laugh).
Sakurai: There were many genin-san in the filming scene, while we did not have that many from our side to do the side-cast-clamour (giggle). Rather, watching [genin-san] “splendid, do the side-cast-clamour all along!”, Nikaido might by himself be thinking that I kept an eye on him (giggle). But I reviewed [the show] with an “it’s OK, it’s OK” atmosphere.
— We have information from Fujigaya Taisuke and Nikaido about the shining combination of Ueda and Sakurai, and the Zeus-Pon [new game of dropping an iron ball of 6cm diameter from 10m high to a hole of 9cm diameter while the stage of challenger can be adjusted by team member who is on the ground; Fujigaya-san and Ueda-san were the challengers while Sakurai-san controlled the stages they were on] being high point.
Sakurai: Indeed it’s the high point!
— They two asked Ueda if it was the strategy or wild intuition.
Ueda: Both. I have 100% trust in Sho-kun’s consideration.
Sakurai: When I knew about Ueda’s strategy, I relied on him from the deepest of my heart (giggle).
Ueda: Yes. So, after that it would be adjustment [for the game] of my own. Then, at the last moment I went on with my intuition without thinking about unnecessary things.
Sakurai: My heart throbbed~ (giggle). After that the high point of Zeus-Pon is Ueda in glasses. [Him in] glasses is moe [cute].
Ueda: My eye-sight is bad (giggle), in order to win I wore my glasses!
— Who among the new members are gaining your attention?
Ueda: There was passionate guy joining.
Sakurai: Passionate guy (アツいヤツ) and dangerous guy (ヤバイヤツ)!
Ueda: Eh, who is dangerous guy?
Sakurai: Tsukada (Ryoichi)! (Giggle) Tsukada-chan has an aura of wonder.
Ueda: Only a fine line between them (giggle). My attention was also attracted by Tsukada, then Fujigaya. During the Zeus-Pon. Fujigaya, Tsukada, and Massu~ (Masuda Takahisa) were waiting for me, and welcomed me with high-touch and hug. I barely had any communication with Fujigaya until then, I didn’t know he was so passionate about [winning] the game. He is a good guy… I liked him (giggle).
Sakurai: This is good (giggle).
— Going beyond the fences of group, Johnny’s Team, united in one [group], had maximum passion. How will the 3rd round of battle be?
※ Johnny’s friend-making - Sakurai After the filming, I received message from Fujigaya about “let’s go to dine”. Ah, yes. He said “Please call me Taisuke from now on” (giggle). Sorry I’ve just called him Fujigaya (giggle). Taisuke called me, I think~ we’ll go dining together (giggle).
16.11.19 TV Guide “Zeus” Interview - Sakurai Sho [English translation]
TVガイド
Sakurai: It is fresh to have photography with Ueda!
Ueda: There has not been such photography til now and I was happy!
Sakurai: In the first place, there is rare chance to have magazine interview with kouhai together. Much more who had imagined that it is the 2-shot of Sakurai x Ueda (giggle).
Ueda: Indeed!
Sakurai: We ourselves didn’t have such image too.
Ueda: Right. But I received the Otoshidama [new year gift] from you the beginning of this year (giggle).
Sakurai: I went to watch the Tokyo dome tour of KAT-TUN.
Ueda: I have appeared in Sho-kun’s “Sakurai・Ariyoshi THE Yakai” *櫻井・有吉THE夜会* and “VS Arashi” *VS嵐*, I was well taken care of this year.
Sakurai: No no, I am happy that we have much more connection. I think it really great for Ueda to join “Zeus”. I watched the previous “Honoo-no Taiiku-kai TV” *炎の体育会TV*, and thought that the atmosphere of that Ueda was really great.
Ueda: I am happy about this.
Sakurai: In fact in the 1st and 2nd rounds of “Zeus” there was something like I couldn’t withdraw from that feeling. This time the feeling of that Ueda was strong and it was good. And then he exactly took up such position and united the team. He really helped a lot, and I was happy that I could see a new side of him in the program.
Ueda: Right. It may be strange to praise Sho-kun, but he created an atmosphere that it is fine for us to do whatever we wanted to do, I think because he was Sho-kun so he was able to do this.
Sakurai: Is that so?
Ueda: You created an atmosphere that it is fine for us to play in relief, it was really easy to do.
Sakurai: In this sense in “Zeus” this time, it would be great if we could show our “feeling of party”. The atmosphere of the former half and latter half of the program also changed, the feeling was thickened.
Ueda: Right.
Sakurai: In terms of the contest Ueda thought about the strategy of “Endless jump” (long rope jumping). In fact, it was a form that kids should not imitate (giggle), I think it is good that it was a season when the school sports day ended (when the program was broadcast). But that was strategy. We stuck to victory.
Ueda: To be honest, I thought I should do it as long as I got Sho-kun’s GO sign, when I asked him “what about this strategy?” I well got his GO (giggle).
Sakurai: I really thought we should do it. Because we can’t lose anymore (giggle)! Losing for consecutively three times would risk the continuity of the program (giggle). Ueda did great in “Strong hug” (contest to cling to a log). I kept watching him, thinking that I would not be able to do that. His muscles were also great, Ueda is a man achieving [good] result (giggle).
Ueda: Ahhahaha. But in this “Strong hug”, Arioka (Daiki) drew muscles with a pen on his body!
Sakurai: Really silly (giggle). Ueda: It was fun. I was cheated by that! He did it with a serious facial expression “it’s great” (giggle).
Sakurai: Right! I thought it was finished. Everyone was doing seriously (giggle). Was it not with a great sense of variety show (giggle)?
Ueda: Indeed (giggle). But I thought Sho-kun was great, Arioka was so too, it is said that every kouhai likes Sho-kun. For the battle as well, we all understood that we were doing it in relief. Of course I am also one of them, I instantly felt that you are a senpai adored by kouhais.
Sakurai: No no there is no such thing. I only grouped you all together. There is not pretty much such chance. However I haven’t done anything special, Ueda united everyone, everyone became active in various contest stations. I think in this sense we have made a “Zeus” which is different from the past two rounds.
Ueda: During the battle, Sho-kun’s tender eyes didn’t change at all. Really didn’t change at all. It was a fact that Sho-kun being the leader helped a lot. If I were the leader that would have become terrorism (giggle).
Sakurai: Ahhahaha.
Ueda: Everyone was motivated by talking to Sho-kun, when we were anxious we saw Sho-kun and we felt relieved, even when we lost the contest he still followed us with warmth. He was really like Buddha, I already call him “Mom”.
Sakurai: Eh!?
Ueda: Well, the feeling from the formal filming.
Sakurai: I see… Hello, I am Mom. Thanks for taking care of Tatsuya (giggle).
Ueda: Ahhahaha.
Sakurai: This time we have new members too. When members changed the team atmosphere changed too, the 3rd battle had a new aura of Johnny’s vigour. Though I have private connection with Kis-My-Ft2, I barely had chance to work with them on TV, A.B.C-Z also joined this time. Well, there was one dangerous guy…
Ueda: Tsukada (Ryoichi) (giggle).
Sakurai: Two people of “Sexy Zone” are also in their 10s. There is a wide spectrum [of age] across the team.
Ueda: Of course Tsukada is dangerous guy (giggle), but in terms of trustworthiness, he is also great.
Sakura: Indeed so. His bodily capability is high.
Ueda: Fujigaya (Taisuke) was also with great passionate aura and became our new fighting power, I think we had grouped great members.
Sakurai: On the other hand, NEWS who joined since the 1st battle is trustworthy too. We were close in relationship, and [they] knew “Zeus”.
Ueda: Surprisingly Masuda (Takahisa) also hates losing very much, sticking to victory, he asked how could we win, while Kato (Shige) was like… so (giggle)?
Sakurai: So if he makes this series of battles into novel (giggle).
Ueda: Ahhahaha, novel “Zeus”.
Sakurai: If “~Yakai” and “Zeus” can be written into novels, our programs can grow bigger (giggle). He is the recorder, the man who records, the man who records (giggle)!
Ueda: The man who records (giggle)!
Sakurai: Well, NEWS, KAT-TUN, and Kis-My as well, have a history of following and backing Arashi during their Jr. time. Even in different groups, even there was not much connection since their debut, it was great that we spent time together in the same rehearsal room.
Ueda: Though the room is no longer there.
Sakurai: The rehearsal room that time.
Ueda: I miss those time. We always looked at Sho-kun with admiration, I never forget [the appearance of] your back, wearing a smart nylon shirt.
Sakurai: The shirt I bought at sports shop in Shibuya (giggle).
Ueda: Right. It is Sho-kun who created KAT-TUN!
Sakurai: It is exaggerated. No one believes it (giggle)!
Ueda: Well, really smart, I like the sharp aura that time. Though I think you surely are hiding it somewhere (giggle), now your tenderness to let kouhais do freely what they want to do is great too, I think you are a great team leader.
Sakurai: No no. But if we two do something together… what would it be? Just then during the photography Ueda was holding a toy piano, shall we play it together? No it does not feel like a piano.
Ueda: I want to act a TV drama [with you]. It would be interesting for us to act as brothers though, [we acting] characteristics whose behaviour and thinking are totally different is also in my thought…
Sakurai: Interesting. The visual atmosphere of Ueda is totally different from me (giggle). In today’s photography as well, it was fresh for us to appear in the same frame. In this sense, as for TV drama, it would be interesting to see what can be presented by us. In the first place there would not have been such chance were there no “Zeus”.
Ueda: Really so!
Sakurai: We have made appointment to dine together later.
Ueda: It is probably the first time I go dining with senpai. Of course there is dining during work, but making a concrete [dining] appointment… so I am very happy!
Sakurai: Really!? It seems that your important thing is taken away (giggle), is it fine for me to do that?
Ueda: Of course (giggle)!
Sakurai: Anyway I think “Zeus” this time is packed with the charm of Ueda, in particular I hope Ueda’s fans will look forward to it.
Ueda: This time, I think the unique sense of unity of Johnny’s has well be illustrated, I hope you would watch this, I’m telling you, you would understand [what I was talking about] Sho-kun’s tender eyes too!
Sakurai: I thought “Zeus” is worth seeing, I hope many people will watch it.
※ Sho -> Tatsuya
Ueda had a “history” of following us and backing us since Jr. time as well as when Arashi was formed.
Even we were in different groups,
Even we didn’t have much connection since debut
The time we spent together in the same rehearsal room was great.

Something you wanna apologize for (1st pic)
Nakamaru: Hmm~basically, I’ve nothing to apologize to Ueda. (Thinking) On the other hand, I wish he could apologize to me (lol). Whenever we take a cab together, I’m always the one who pays for the fare; something Ueda thinks it’s what I’m supposed to do. So the problem here now is Ueda totally thinks it’s a normal thing for me to pay (lol).
K: I’ve never seen Ueda’s wallet, not once since the group was formed (2nd pic) Ko: Indeed. I have never seen his wallet either. N: He doesn’t pay when we go out to eat too. U: Between you and me, right? Ofc you gotta pay. N: Why~~~!!
Ueda: I’ve never paid for the taxi fare when I’m taking it with the members. Most of the time, I’d tell Nakamaru, ‘pay for it~’, and then alight before him. Hm? There’s no special meaning to it~ I do pay if I’m not taking it with a member so I’m actually not a miser. But the thing is Nakamaru is my wallet (lol), he always pays for me. Well, I think that’s okay, right? I just wanna rely on him ❤
Say it with me kids:
Anon is for shy people and people without blogs. Anon is not for you to send disgusting messages and hate without any consequences.
Ueda’s words to his jrs on 体育会TV [2016.09.03]
We started off as six, and one left later. Even tho it wasn’t simple working as 5nin initially, we formed a stronger bond than before. Yet while we were growing stronger as a team of five, someone left again…atm we srsly thought we wouldn’t be able to continue anymore. But then again, we couldn’t betray the fans who had been supporting us, so we decided to go on with just four members. We grew even more united. We went through three tribulations to know the value of our members. We became three recently…and that was rather unsettling. But the fans were the ones who kept us motivated, made us want to hold concerts in Tokyo Dome, and we, too, wanted to show them how grand KAT-TUN could be. Therefore, we decided to recharge ourselves and work hard as individuals. Kame and Nakamaru are both working really hard now, and so am I. I’m working hard as the one who oversees this project, that’s why sometimes I do get mad at you guys. And because KAT-TUN is the only thing I think about now, I think that’s how a group is supposed to be; to unite as one. We might have started off in pieces, but through various experiences, I learned the importance of things. That’s why I hope you guys realize this soon, realize the importance of your nakama (friends). I’m able to say all these now only because of what I had been through.

I just learned that some websites use cookies to adjust prices. That is, if you visit a certain website a lot the price will increase.
You can tell if that’s the case by checking the same web page on a different browser if you have a different number of stored cookies for that site. I checked something on Chegg and it was $14.95 on Chrome, $19.95 on Firefox, and $16.95 on Safari.
The fix? Clear your cookies for that website.

Plane tickets almost always do this!
PLANE TICKETS DO THIS ALL THE DAMN TIME
When you’re looking for plane tickets and waiting for prices to drop, ALWAYS clear your cookies beforehand and switch between browsers. A friend of mine was looking for a flight and getting prices that were the CHEAPEST at $800-1000, I sent her a link for a round trip that was like $495, and it read as $900 on her computer because she had been hounding the airline site.
alternatively: avoid all this headache by using incognito when shopping for plane tickets, text books, etc
Hotel rooms are notorious for this, as well. Just like, go on incognito mode to look at these sites, saves u a lot of time & hassle.
Bruh I ain’t never know dis thank you man
