Happy birthday, Minori! A very short translation to celebrate the big day (totally NOT for 6th Live Hokkaido finally happening like it originally was supposed to be before I changed my mind, definitely not). I actually found this in January in a folder of miscellaneous translations on my computer. I had written it up in August of last year before the postponement and I barely have any recollection of doing so. Figured I’d wait until it was more timely to post.
No pictures except for his signature and the handwritten message. And in true Takatsuka fashion, the printed interview retains his excessive exclamation points. I love this funny guy.
1. Please tell us something you’d like to do or a place you’d like to visit while in Hokkaido.
I want to eat seafood!! I’ll never forget the crab I ate in Hokkaido once when I was a kid, so I think it’d be great to try it again!! lol
2. Please tell us something of note in your unit song, “Secret Ornament”.
The melody that makes you feel like skipping, and also the positive lyrics—if you ask me, they’re all noteworthy!!! I’d like everyone to listen to it while staring out at a beautiful cityscape!!
3. Speaking of a “NEXT DESTIN@TION”, please tell us a place you’d like to perform in after Hokkaido, Kobe, and Tokyo.
It’s gotta be Okinawa! I’d visited once already for the “The IDOLM@STER SideM ORIGIN@L PIECES” release event, so it’d be great to have a concert there next time……!! Ah! It’d be even better if it was an outdoors concert!!!!!!!
4. Let’s hear a message for the Producers!
It’s finally time for 6th Live!!!! I’m gonna do my very best to explode with all of the power I’ve had stored up!!!!!!! Producer, it’ll definitely, definitely be our best stage yet, so look forward to it!!!!! Don’t miss it!!!!!
