“Aokute, Itakute, Moroi” PR video comment
T/N: I just skipped their introductions and translated the summary ^^
Hana: It’s about the two of us being tangled in secrets and lies. A never-before-seen youth suspense story.
Ryo: A young man lying while hating after he was robbed of his precious person, it’s a shocking work that’s already tough!! It’s a movie that depicts the “blueness,” “pain,” and “fragility” of youth.

“Aokute, Itakute, Moroi” AMEBA Interview (Part 1 of 2)
Q. “What were you conscious of while preparing for the role?”
Ryo: I had to act out two different periods, the year I was freshly enrolled at 18 yrs old and as a 3rd or 4th year at 21 yrs old. There’s a gap between the two since there were things that happened during those hidden 3 years after all. I thought about how to properly show the differences in those years as the story progresses, and discussed that gap with the director.
Hana: There were quite a few instances where I wondered whether the relationship between Kaede and Akiyoshi was just friendship or something else beyond that. I searched for the best way to go about these gray areas. Akiyoshi is a dazzling existence to Kaede regardless, but I had a lot of discussions with the director on whether or not there was also love.

“Aokute, Itakute, Moroi” filming report from one of the extras:
On the day I joined, they wanted to film the cafeteria scenes so we filmed during the day in a real cafeteria at the university. Then they were shooting for all four seasons, from the spring when the two first met each other until sometime in winter.
First of all, it was the first time for the two of them to talk but neither Sugisaki Hana-san and Yoshizawa Ryo-san spoke with each other before filming began. They were both very serious and focused on their roles.
Yoshizawa Ryo-san in particular, who plays the role of an inconspicuous (unnoticeable/unremarkable) college student, appeared quietly as if erasing his aura.
And the scene with Sugisaki Hana-san’s dialogue, which was pretty long and echoed in the cafeteria, must have taken at least 10 times while changing the angles. There could have been more if I included the test shots.
When we finished filming it, we took a long break. Yoshizawa Ryo-san and Sugisaki Hana-san were talking quietly with each other and I was able to see the two smiling.
Even though I was pretty close, the staff were also nearby so I couldn’t really hear their conversation. A bit disappointing..
After awhile, we took a lunch break. Just before that though, because they were shooting an important scene during such a hot summer day, the staff were showing signs of exhaustion. But then…
A voice echoed out that Sugisaki Hana-san was giving out baumkuchens (a type of German cake).
Then… I saw the faces of the staff members become really happy, saying “waa~” while smiling. Hana-chan is amazing after all, I thought.

“Aokute, Itakute, Moroi” AMEBA Interview (Part 2 of 2)
Q. About each others’ 「O, O, and O」
Ryo: “Strong personality, nonstop smiling, and laughter.” Whenever I see her face, I have a strong impression of her laughing, and the way she laughs is really unique and cute. Many of her favorite genres are also pretty surreal so I truly believe she enjoys laughing.
Hana: “He eats, can’t hold back, and can’t stop.” Yoshizawa-san is really into ramen and tsukemen, and eats it everyday. On the day when filming was scheduled to end before noon, he said “Let’s go eat here after we’re done.” I was thinking we’d go there today too, but it got pushed back since we have to film again after lunch break. So when I looked at Yoshizawa-san, depressed and lacking energy, I thought he really wanted to eat. That’s why I have the impression that he’s really addicted to ramen.

INTERVIEW
MEN'S CLUB 2020 June - July issue ✨
Yoshizawa Ryo x Hirose Suzu Cross Talk - Seventeen 2020.04
First encounter
S: Our first encounter was on SEVENTEEN fashion show, right?
Y: Yes, I appeared as a model, it has been five or six years ago.
S: Instead of “Encounter”, “Noticed” would be the right word.
Y: We didn’t appear together during the show and I didn’t talk with anyone in the fashion show either (lol)
S: I was thinking to myself “He’s so handsome!” and then I also told this to my manager.
Y: Thank you. (lol) As for my first impression towards Suzu, I thought she might be an energetic girl. However, after working together, she changed my impression, she can talk to anyone calmly.
Unexpected part
S: Sometimes he shows the “Ojisan” (old uncle) side.
Y: Ohh haha, yes that’s right.
S: This makes an interesting contrast with his handsome image. As he stood up he would make sound like “Yoshiyo”, and when he ran for a bit, he was already complaining about muscle pain. Behaviours like these show the old uncle side of him, which is not a bad thing, he’s trustable. (lol)
Y: Good that I’m an old uncle. (lol) What surprises me is… Suzu chan’s communication skills! To be honest, she doesn’t look like she’s good in communicating. (lol)
S: Yes. (lol)
Y: The more I learn about her, the better it is than I thought. As I’ve mentioned just now, she manages it well with different age groups of people. I think that’s incredible.
S: Your communication skill is also incredible! Rather than saying he’s hard to communicate with, it’s more like the deep talk atmosphere that he creates, that’s my first impression I had when I first met him. But in fact, he isn’t like this, the conversation develops naturally as we talk more. This is unexpectedly very “human-like”.
Y: I am human! (lol)
S: Because you’re too pretty, hence giving the cool image.
Similarities
S: I’m inexpressive according to him but I guess this is what we have in common.
Y: Possible. We both have the calm mind towards anything.
S: After filming for Natsuzora, we went to karaoke together with the cast members, we sat there quietly although we were excited and hyped about it (lol)
Y: I miss it. (lol)
Spring fashion
S: Now that I have piercings, I would love to have big earrings. After Natsuzora’s wrap up, I immediately went for ear piercings, as a treat to myself.
Y: Sounds good.
S: Playing around with big earrings and high neck knit, they shape the face
Y: Did you do the piercings by yourself?
S: I planned to do that, but I didn’t gain manager’s trust, so I got it done at the hospital.
Y: For me, I did ear piercings by myself, using a pushpin.
S: Omg! When?
Y: During middle school, I did three.
S: That’s painful.
Y: That’s really painful, there’s pus coming out, it’s better not to do it yourself.
S: Yes. By the way, what is your spring fashion?
Y: It’s complicated, about fashion.
S: Maybe some colours with spring vibes.
Y: What’s spring vibes?
S: Something like pastel?
Y: That’s nice, let’s make it that way.
S: Really? How would you wear it, as top or bottom?
Y: What do you think?
S: Top!
Y: Ok, let’s go with that! (lol)
School friends
S: Back in middle school, one of my friends has two gorgeous twin elder sisters, we would think that being able to see them is a lucky sign, as if they are a walking power spot.
Y: Did you guys have a conversation at all?
S: I did have a chance to approach them when I was a model for SEVENTEEN, but in the end, I didn’t have the guts to talk them. (lol)
Y: I’m still in contact with this close friend, we had a conflict when we first met. He has always been a very robust guy, now he’s in a bodybuilding competition.
S: That’s cool. Have you been on good terms with him until now?
Y: During primary school ceremony, I bumped into him who’s already very fit and he said “Ouch! Watch out Gorilla!” and I replied him with “You are the Gorilla!” (lol)
Recent happy moments
S: There’s two weeks of break, I rested well.
Y: That’s good, what have you done?
S: I really did nothing (lol) Wake up and had nothing to do so I slept again… made it through for the rest of the time in a happy mood.
Y: I laugh the most when I watch comedy shows, something like M-1 Guranburi, I like the jokes they made. Last year’s winner - Milkboy is also excellent.
About “Ichido Shinde Mita”
Y: Mr Tsutsumi plays as Kei who takes a drug that causes him death for only 2 days, but something goes wrong… It’s this kind of noisy comedy movie. This is Suzu chan’s first time taking on a challenge to be in a comedy movie.
S: Yes, you and Tsutsumi san too. After seeing other’s acting in the movie, I tried hard not to act like an amateur.
Y: She plays as Nanase, a daughter who hates her dad, Kei, the emotional Suzu can be seen in a few scenes. It feels good to watch her having a breakthrough in her acting! I hope to see Suzu in comedy movie again
S: Haha. I’m happy to hear that. If I must use one phrase to sum up your comedic performance, it would be “That’s only he can do it!” Your character is so called a “Ghost” employee (someone with no presence) - the simple-minded Matsuoka. The funniest scene is where Matsuoka got drunk, the break out is absolutely unbelievable and interesting~!
Y: Despite the fact that this movie is an exciting one, it’s relatively quiet while shooting. We did a test, remember?
S: That was a question I asked Lily san when we co-starred before. “Please list out 3 qualities of your ideal partner. What if there are 2 people meeting all qualities appear at the same time? Which one will you look out for?” something like that.
Y: The last one is actually the most important.
S: And your answer was?
Y: Face (lol) And what about yours?
S: …Capability!
Y: Capability is important. By the way, there is one thing I’m really concerned…Remember the scene where Matsuoka wipes the cream off Nanase’s face?
S: That’s when we share the same cake in Xmas.
Y: Yes, although my character is supposed to be plain, I play it cool in that scene
S: Ahaha! That’s a nice one.
Y: Shoujo manga vibes. The shooting started at 3am…
S: Oh yes!
Y: Before wiping the cream off, I was told to take off my shoes and socks which I had been wearing them for the whole day. I was worried that Suzu would notice the smelly socks and shoes.
S: That’s ok. (lol) I wasn’t thinking about that at all, not knowing this until you tell me now.
Y: I’m relieved. (lol)
S: This scene is both hilarious and heart-throbbing…
Y: Everyone has different views.
S: I really want to visit the cinema to find out how people react to this.
A message to Seventeen fans
Y: Many ikemens appear in this movie. Yet this time I turn my handsomeness off, or rather, I destroyed it. There’re lots of people making appearances in the movie, don’t miss out, it’s really fun
S: Yes please watch it. This is a must! Understand?

I decided I needed the scans to look nicer, especially for this particular spread, so out comes the exact-o. (It gave me a little pit in my stomach. I’m so protective of my magazines! Eek… worth it.)
Expect spam from this feature, guys. Sorry, but well… if you don’t expect me to spam AMUSE stuff, you’re probably new here.
