*What each member of Arashi thinks about Sho-chan*
taken from H January issue

Aiba-chan's answers are so difficult to translate
cos the words he uses are a bit weird...


1 What's your favourite work among Sho's past works?
Ninomiya: 'Nekketsu Ren-aidoh' 15-minute mini drama we used to do on Sunday afternoon ages ago, the episode in which Sho-chan became a Xmas tree himself.
Aiba: 'Bambi in Cats!!' I like that drama cos it's funky.
Ohno: 'West Side Story' It was very good.
Matsumoto: 'Bambi in Kisarazu Cats'. No, 'Taiyo sensei in Yoiko no Mikata'.

2 What do you think is Sho's most selling point as an actor?
Ninomiya: 'A power' of security.
Aiba: Showing his intellectualness on his face makes a good impression. His kooky persuasiveness.
Ohno: Acting free of mannerisms.
Matsumoto: He makes even weird roles agreeable when he does acting.

3 If you were a producer, what kind of role in what kind of work would you want him to play?
Ninomiya: Very bad guy, as bad as even his fans would think 'he's a horrible guy!'.
Aiba: Perhaps a doctor! or Jocky!! cos I haven't seen many works about horse racing...
Ohno: A gay.
Matsumoto: Sho version of '8 Mile'! (laugh)

4 Sho's attractive point and weak point.
Ninomiya: Intellectual. He easily gets mad to waiters/waitresses when they fail to serve him at once.
Aiba: His body. He looks skinny with clothes on, but he's in fact, quite muscular.
Ohno: (Weak point --->) Ghost.
Matsumoto: (a) His pleasant personality. (w) He's got stiff body.

5 What Sho has but you don't, and what do you envy him at?
Ninomiya: Popularity.
Aiba: Persuasiveness!! Even if we both told the same thing to others, they'd interpret differently.
Ohno: Knowledge.
Matsumoto: He has an affable way and works well with others, which are the ones I don't have.

6 What do you want Sho to improve?
Ninomiya: Nothing in particular.
Aiba: Don't pluck hairs on your legs and give them to me. It's pretty much annoying. ^_^
Ohno: His face just after wake up.
Matsumoto: He eats pretty a lot. After I finish eating, I feel sick by watching him eating.

7 What has he changed most since made debut?
Ninomiya: The way he sees things.
Aiba: Although not many people might know, he had been wearing a tengallon hat for three months or so since made our debut, which reminds me of either him or Nagare Hagiwara whenever I see cowboy hats.
Ohno: His rap.
Matsumoto: I think the quality of his rap has changed, which I personally think became softer.

8 If you express Sho in colour, what colour would he be? and why?
Ninomiya: Various.
Aiba: Perhaps red... This question is too hard.
Ohno: Red because his costume's always been red since debut.
Matsumoto: Either white or red, which came up to my mind separately, but not pink.

Wow, did you translate this?
Some of the things are very interesting!
I like all their responses of the if you were a producer, which role should Sho play? All of them have much imagination! (lol, Ohno and Jun...)

Oh, thanks to translate this!!!

I like too the answers about the role should Sho play...laugh a lot

Thanks again Skinnylatte260ml for the great translation. It's so funny to hear what the others think about each other
