動物LOVE
物心ついた頃から動物に囲まれて過ごしてたんだよね。これまで一緒に暮らした動物は、クジャク、カメ、リス、犬etc.。だから「天才! 志村どうぶつ園」は楽しいけど…唯一、猛獣に触れるのは怖い!トラに背中に乗られたり、毎回真剣勝負。でも結局テンションが上がって「やるぞー!」って思っちゃうんだよね。オレって単純(笑)。
Animal LOVE
I pass my days surrounded by animals, ne. Some of the animals i've lived with up until now.. peacock, turtle, squirrel, dog, etc. So "Tensai! Shimura Zoo" is fun... but I'm afraid of vicious animals! Like riding on a tiger and placing my life on the line. But in the end i get so excited and just want to do it anyhow, ne. I'm so simple. (laughs)
チャレンジャー
バラエティーの仕事の影響か、何かに挑戦するロケは大好き。水旅館で、急遽イルカショーをしたりね。一番印象的なのは、馬人間コンテストに出たこと。強風の中、ムリやり飛ぶことになったんだけど、踏み切り直後に海に落ちてマジで怖かった…。でも自分で発案したことだし、今となってはいい経験! 次は鯨に乗りたいなぁ(笑)。
Challenger
Because of doing so many variety shows, i love places where something challenges me. Like hurridly doing a dolphin show at a Japanese inn, ne. The best one was when I entered the horse-person contest. We were trying so hard to run around in the strong winds, but i was really scared when we stepped over the edge and fell into the ocean... but because it was proposed by me, I still think it was good experience! Next time i want to ride a whale~. (laughs)
ピースな男
優しいって言ってもらうことは多いけど…優しいよー(笑)。なんて、ムッとした時もまずその原因を探す性格だからかな。どっちかといえば、怒るおりも泣くことのほうが多いかも。友達と盛り上がって「今日もうまい酒が飲めて最高だよー」ってオレが泣き始め、つられて全員が号泣、みたいな(笑)。感動した時も涙が出ちゃう!
Peaceful Man
I often get told that i'm kind... but thats because i am~. (laughs) Nah, when i'm offended i'm the type of person who first tries to figure out why. I guess you could say i cry more often than i get angry. Having fun with my friends, "This sake is the best!!", then i'll start crying, which makes everyone else want to cry. (laughs) I'll also start crying if i'm emotionally moved by something too!
番組の打ち合せで、「僕らもテンションが上がるようなネタがいくつかあったので、そういうところを視聴者の方にたくさん伝えられれば!」とにこやかに話す相葉。新しい冠番組への皆の期待をしなやかにキャッチしているようで、アカデミックなニュー "相葉発言" をみせてくれそうだ。
Aiba was smiling as he mentioned their meeting for the show, "We had a few things we were excited to talk about too, so we'd like to tell them to the audience!". It seems he has some new "Aiba speeches" in store for us, to creatively catch all of our expectations on the new show.
知的に…
Intellectually...
「テーマは、知的に…ですからねっ。あ、なに、笑ってます?! ご心配なく(笑)」 "知的枠" で相葉の愛しきおとぼけキャラが薄まってしまったら悲しいは、との一瞬思ったが、でも大丈夫、相葉ちゃんテイストはきっと番組にいい味付けをしてくれるに違いない。
「勉強しないと知ることができないようなことを楽しく伝えていけたらと思うんです。 "知的" でも、嵐、そして僕がやるので内容はすごく楽しくなると思いますよ~!」
"The theme is intellectual... ne. Ah, what are you laughing at me?! No worries! (laughs)" It'd be sad if Aiba's lovable baka self drifted away in the "intellectual frame", or so i thought. But all is well, Aiba will surely bring a flavor all his own.
"I think we'll be able to have fun explaining the things you cant know without studying them. Even though its 'intellectual', I think it'll definetly turn out super fun because we're Arashi!"
個人的な疑問
Personal Problems
因みに、個人的に疑問に思っていることは…「すっごい、どうでもいいことばかり疑問に思ってます(笑)」。例えば、首部高で1日で集まるお金はどれくらいかな、とか。
「高速で渋滞に巻き込まれた時、いつも思うんです。これだけの車がいたら一体いくらになるんだろうと…。そんなくだらないことばっかり考えてます(笑)」
Also, some things that have been on his mind lately are.. "I keep thinking of all kinds of things that dont matter at all. (laughs)" Like about how much money it would cost to gather at 首部高 in one day.
"I always think things like that when we're stuck in traffic on the highway. If there are this many cars right here.. how many are there actually... its always useless things like that. (laughs)"
ひとつの方向
One Direction
新番組スタートにあたり、改めて嵐の結束力の源を聞いてみると、「グループとして存在しているのは、僕らにとって、当たり前のこと、なんです」と目をキリリとさせた。大人っぽく落ち着いた相葉の顔はいつもの「相葉ちゃん」とは違う。
「あえて言葉にすると、最近ラインとしてメンバー皆がひとつの方向を向いているということかな。でも、そうだな、ツアーで地方に行った時なんかは、必ずメンバーと食事するし…はい、仲いいですね(笑)。メンバーは…中間、同僚、家族、ライバル… なんでもあてはまる存在です。その時の心情や状況によって、いろいろな関係にスイッチしていくんです。だって、仕事とはなんの関係もないことを相談している時っていうのは友達で、仕事のことを話し合っている時は仕事中間だし」
お互いのいろいろな面を見て刺激を受ける時は、ライバル。新番組でも大いに刺激を受け合い、嵐として更なるバージョナップを狙っていく。
With the start of a new show, we tried asking about the source for Arashi's union with each other, "Existing as a group is, at least to me, whats to be expected." The adult-like, calm Aiba was much different from our normal "Aiba-chan".
"If you dare me to put it to words, lately every member is focusing on their own path. But, when we went to the country for our tour, we ate together just like normal.. we're really good friends, ne. (laughs) They're my friends, associates, family, rivals.. they provide for every role. It switches depending on the situation and our state of mind. Because if we're talking about non work related things, we're friends, but when its work, we become work associates."
Seeing each others varying faces and when you take their motivation, they're rivals. Even this new show is a competition of sorts, aiming to improve ourselves as Arashi even more.
春
Spring
「春ですね…僕、花粉症なんです!今、きつくてしょうがないんですよ~。目もかゆいし鼻水も出るし。あと、ウチの家系だけかもしれないけどノドの中がムシュウにかゆくなるんです~。ノドの中、外からかけないから大変です(笑)。小学生くらいの時には友達と花粉症サークルみたいなのを作ってて。「オレはノドがかゆくなる」って言ったら、そういう人はいなっかたんですよ…。小学校の机って、両脇にカバンをかけるフックがあるじゃないですか。僕、両方どちらからでも取れるように両脇にティッシュの箱をかけてました(笑)。授業中、ティッシュを取るシュッシュッという音が、僕のところから響いてましたね(笑)。」
"Spring huh... I have allergies! It's a pain at the moment, and i cant do anything about it~. My eyes are itchy and my nose is running. Also, it might just be my family, but the inside of my throat gets all itchy~. I cant really reach the inside of my throat so its awful. (laughs) I made a Allergies club with some of my friends in elementary school. When i told them "my throat is getting itchy", there wasnt anyone like me.. On your elementary school desk there were two hooks, one on each side right? I had a tissue box in each side so that i could take one from both. (laughs) You could hear the soft rustling of me taking out tissues during class, ne. (laughs)"
相葉くんは…
人とはまったく違う目線で捉える。
とにかく面白いです。たとえ話ひとつとっても面白さは絶品。
Aiba-kun.. (according to the show director)
sees things in a completely different light from everyone else.
is interesting if nothing else. His stories are so captivating and fun, its unique.
ドラマ「山田太郎~」主題歌の「Happiness」は、最近の嵐の曲の傾向からすると、新しい感じがする。ちょっとロックっぽいようなイメージもあって。。サビもすごく印象的でしょ、前向きで。甘い感じよりも力強いイメージが強いと思うね。僕にとっての「ハピネス」はなんだろう?何かを目指してるときの気持ち。。。かな。新しいことや目標を見つけて、そこに向かうとき。そのときの気持ちってすごくわくわくする。その先を想像することも楽しい。例えば新しい趣味を始めるとき、いろんなカタログを集めたり、調べたりとか。性格上、一気に走り出しちゃうし(笑)。趣味にしても、いっぺんにいろいろやりたいタイプ。好奇心が旺盛みたい(笑)。体験した中で本当に自分に合うものをチョイスする。自分にぴったり合えば最高の幸せ。
今回のコンサートのリハはね、時間を気にしないでかなり頑張った。みんなのスケジュールの関係もあって、昼からと、夕方と、夜からと3部制みたいな感じで、その日によって集合が違ってた。夜入りのときな、帰りが遅くなるの覚悟して、振り付けをやったよね。全部終わっても納得できない部分があると自分のオーディオで曲を聴きながら確認したりもしてた。で、家に帰るのが朝でも、全然疲れたりしてなくて、翌日も頑張れてた。
コンサートは、たくさん追加公演が出てホントにうれしい限り。この夏だけでも50万人近い人たちが嵐を見に来てくれるなんて、マジで感動してる。1時間コンサートを待っていてくれた人もたくさんいるだろうし。1回1回のステージを大切にして、みんなといい夏の思い出作りしたいなと。
で、いい汗をかいてステージが終わったら、ホテルに戻り、風呂に入って「ひとり乾杯!」をしてから寝るのが通常のパターン。会場にあるシャワールームを使うこともあって、そのときはホテルに帰ったら寝るだけ。今回はゲームも持って行かずにすんなり寝ようと思ってる。
コンサート以外の仕事は、リーダーとのロケが多くて、「まごまご嵐」は僕らのレギュラーみたいになってる(笑)。ただ、夏のロケはちょっと大変。特に「子どもの晩ゴハン」でよそのお宅へおじゃましてるけど、エアコンの音が音声に入るからエアコンを切って撮影するんで室内がすごく暑いのよ(笑)。でも、孫になるときは田舎のじいちゃん、ばあちゃんの家なんで、結構、家の中に風が通って涼しい。リーダーとの関係性もどっちが暴れたら、どっちかが抑えるみたいのは自然のままで気張らずにやってる。じいちゃんたちとの空気感を大事にしながら楽しく撮影してるよ。
If you look at the trend of Arashi's recent songs, like the theme song "Happiness" for the drama "Yamada Tarou~", it has a new feeling to it. Theres a feeling of rockish-ness to it too.. and you can really feel elegant simplicity too, positively. More than a soft feeling, I think it has an emboldened tone to it, ne. What is "happiness" to me anyhow? The feeling when you're working towards something... maybe. When you find a new thing or goal, and look towards that. That kind of feeling really excites me. Just imagining it is fun. Like when you start a new hobby, gathering various magazines and researching into it. You start to run off with it all in one breath. (laughs) Even having a hobby, I'm the type that wants to do lots of things all at once. My curiosity seems like it has its own drive. (laughs) In my past experiences, i choose things that really fit me. If something really fits me, its really best kind of happiness.
At this years concerts, ne, without worrying about time we've worked pretty hard. Because of everyones schedules, depending on the day, it seems like there are 3 different starting times: afternoon, evening, or night. When we'd go in at night, I'd prepare myself for going home late and do what i had to, ne. Even when everything was finished, if there was a part i still wasnt satisfied with I'd sit and listen to the audio reconfirming it all in my head. Then, even if i dont get home until morning, I'm not worn out at all, and i work hard the next day too.
There were a lot of additional concerts put in, which made me extremely happy. Only this summer, the fact that close to 500,000 people will come to see Arashi really, honestly means a lot to me. There were probably a lot of people that waited an hour before the concert too. So making each and every stage set the best it can be, we want to create the best summer memory for everyone.
Then, when we've completely exhausted ourselves on the stage, I go back to the hotel, and take a bath with a "one person 'Cheers!' " and go to bed; thats my normal pattern. There are times when i use the showers at the concert hall, and if thats the case , when i go back i just go to bed. This time i dont think i'll take games so i can sleep without interruption.
My other work besides concerts has recently been doing on location stuff with Leader; it seems like "MagoMago Arashi" has become our regular thing. (laughs) Just, doing on location stuff in the summer is rough. Especially with "Kodomo no Bangohan", we intrude into people's homes, but since the air conditioning is noisy, we tape without it on, so it gets really hot in the house. (laughs) However, when we become grandkids, the countryside grandpa and grandma's houses have a nice breeze blowing through them, and its rather cool. Leader and I do the taping just as we are, without worrying about supressing or struggling against the other. We just value the atmosphere of the grandparents house and have fun shooting it.
