VS Arashi 2017.06.01: OP Talk Translated

Here is my translation of VS嵐2017年6月1日 OPT.




S: Okay today is June 1st. Today is "Photography Day", right?
(Text: "June 1 was declared 'Photography Day' by Japan Photography Association")
I want to ask everyone stuff about photography.
A: It's almost to the limit, right? Like tightly packed together!
S: When taking pics of the five of us, right?
A: Right, right during our group shot.
(Inset group shot of them with faces close together)
S: Ah, that happens.
A: Our faces would be this close (places palms near his face)
N: Definitely.
S: It's much closer than the generally required distance.
A: Yeah, yeah.
S: On that note, Aiba-kun is something like a high hurdle.
M: His smile level, right?
S: Right. All of us are doing this, giving 100% with our smiles during the shoot (poses like as in a group shot).
But Aiba-kun... (the photographer would say to them) "(I need you to smile) a bit more like Aiba-san".
A: That is why in all those pics of us, my face is mostly wrinkled. (laughs)
N: It's a lot (of smiling), right?
A: I didn't know what was what.
S: I guess it's difficult. (To O) When it comes to that, you have a steady fixed smile, right?
O: I guess...
N: Super steady.
S (points at a camera): Please show it to Camera 1.
(O shows his usual smile)
S: Oh, there it is!
O: I'm not the only one who does it. MatsuJun's (smile) is somehow good, right?
M: But mine is around 60% of Aiba-kun's.
A: (If so) you won't be smiling!
N: It's not a smile if it's on the basis of Aiba-san's smile.
A: You'll be angry. (J laughs)
S: Matsumoto-san, please show us a smile.
(M shows his "60%" smile)
S: It's permissible.
(Laughter)
S: In order to see well, let's see it next to Aiba-san's smile.
(A and M smile on cam; Text: "The Smile Level Disparity")
A: Sure is too much around here (probably referring to his "smiling wrinkles")
S: Nino-san, do you have any thoughts?
N: But I wonder if there are many who stay at the back. When Riida is at the back, he would always stand on a block.
O: Yeah.
N: Because you three are tall (points at A, J, S)
O: It's the height thing.
N: Although us two (N and O) can be in front, (there are times) we have to be at the back.
The block would be like this, right? (N crouches forming the shape of the block with his hands, O pretends to stand on it)
S: How about if you stand on a platform?
O: Even if I get on a platform, I'd be standing on my tippy toes (demonstrates).
J: You can ask for it to be raised.
N: You won't say it, right? You won't need it anymore, so you won't say it.
O: Because it takes time.

End of OPT.

Thank you for this!
Ohno's smile was exactly the same as the one he did for AYH cover (which he demonstrated again on Anishi) so I guess I understand now that it's his go to smile no matter what after all those idol years!
But Aiba-chan, those wrinkles are so sexy! You age like fine wine seriously!!! <3

Lol, I remember how they joked about Ohno's smile in Shiyagare, he really looked exactly the same in all the pics!
Aiba-chan, I love your smile, don't worry about those cute wrinkles^^
Thanks for sharing!

Thanks! I love that talk xD Others having hard time because Aiba's smile is something they couldn't compete with (well, I mean for the photographer because for me, all of their smiles are precious !)

Thank you..

((N: You won't say it, right? You won't need it anymore, so you won't say it.
O: Because it takes time.))
Lol, he just want to finish quick and go home :)

And not only his smile, Aiba's laugh is very unique too.. I loved hearing it.. he doesn't laugh much like that now..
