Intro
🦅: It’s been a while hasn’t it?
🐹: It has!
🦅: Especially with just the two of us. It’s a fascinating feeling, but please take care of us~
🐹: Onegaishimasu 🙏
🦅: We’re actually recording this before our public recording [date 10/26], like, a good while before it happens… So I wonder what occurred… 😂
🐹: 🤣🤣🤣🤣
🦅: I wonder how it went~
🐹: We can finally do a public recording~
🦅: Yeah~ We can do it! 💪
🦅: It’s one of our bigger projects right. We do a lot of radio so to bring that atmosphere of Mazz Raji to an audience…
🐹: I hope we livened things up?
🦅: I hope so!
About Fire
🐹: How is it, “Fire”?
🦅: It’s a song our boss, SKY-HI, wrote with us in mind.
🐹: It’s the second song after MISSION (🦅: Yes!) produced by boss.
🦅: It was hard and a song that was given as a challenge to us.
🐹: 🦅’s voice in the opening line is super good 👍
🦅: Thank you~ I did my best with that part.. And when we were recording boss was also going, “It’s super good!”
🐹: Uwee~? That’s unusual?
🦅: Mm, unusual… Hey!
🐹: 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
🦅: He complimented me so
[Fire plays]
🐹: Fire is good!!! 😊
🦅: It’s great! I think it showed everyone’s good qualities
🐹: Showed it off to the fullest, right?
🦅: 🐹’s very low vocals
🐹: Super low right
🦅: Super low. I really like it!
🐹: I did my best haha
🦅: I hope it reaches a lot of people!
🐹: Listen to it lots!
Maple leaf hunting
🐹: November you think of maple leaves!
🦅: Maple leaf season!
🐹: Have you hunted for maple leaves?
🦅: Not me…
🐹: I actually don’t know what maple leaf hunting entails..
🦅: 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
🐹: Do you buy / borrow the maple leaves? You’re allowed?
🦅: It’s –
🐹: Taking it from nature? You can do that?
🦅: No no no no 😂 Not like that. Maybe it means, the maple leaves that have fallen and pick a pretty one…?
[staff says no]
🦅: Ah, it seems like that’s not it… Let’s take a listen (🐹: 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣)
[to staff probably] 🦅: What’s maple leaf hunting?
🦅: Not that?
🐹: Not taking the leaves actually! Just looking at them
🦅: It’s watching the maple leaves!
🐹: Have you done that? 🤣
🦅: No, who said it’s “borrowing”, geez~ (🐹: 🤣🤣🤣)
🐹: Japan is known for its beautiful maple leaves! Do you know why?
🦅: Why… Maybe because there’s a lot of mountains? You get the impression of nature and think it’s pretty
🐹: That’s not it!
🦅: Not it
🐹: I don’t know either
BOTH: 😂😂😂😂😂
[SEITO reads the explanation in the script, that maple leaves are deciduous trees and a distinctive part of Japan’s nature and scenery between the autumn and winter seasons. The leaves change from green to red, finally to yellow when it withers and falls. Due to the colder temperatures in Japan’s forests, people are able to see the beautiful autumn leaves in their daily lives]
🦅: Ohhh, is that right. We don’t usually use words like “deciduous” so 😂
🐹: Did it pique your interest about maple leaf hunting, 🦅?
🦅: It did~ 😂😂 Eheheheh! 😅
🐹: Hmmm, should we try it?
🦅: There are places where you can see maple leaves in Kumamoto
🐹: Hehhh? Really?
🦅: Mmm, it’s very pretty. It’s pretty from afar and up close you can see the changes [in colours] too.
🐹: Should we be in nature then?
🦅: I do want to be in nature. Being in Tokyo… (🐹: You don’t) you don’t feel like you’re around nature a lot
🐹: We should go~? Maple leaf hunting
🦅: Seito’s maple leaf hunting
🐹: Should I try maple leaf hunting on my own?
🦅: Hehehehe! 🤣 / 🐹: Hahahahah!
🦅: Let’s do it on our own! 💪
🐹: Please do it for us, everyone!
🦅: If you encounter a solitary 🐹 maple hunting, consider yourself lucky! ✨
🐹: I will try it! 🤣
[Listener 1: In front of the listener’s house grows a fragrant orange olive tree (orange osmanthus). Around autumn, the tree will give a citrus-y fragrance to it that makes the listener feel it’s autumn / fall. Question: What’s something that makes you think of autumn / fall?]
🐹: I really like orange osmanthus!!
🦅: Me too!
🐹: I can smell it when I walk
🦅: My neighbour [in my hometown] grows an orange osmanthus tree, when I open the window in my room I can smell it
🐹: Where the heck are you living?
🦅: Heheheheh! 🤣
🐹: In the mountains?
🦅: Hahaha! 🤣 Maybe I do 😏 It’s a very nice smell. The aroma is very strong.
🐹: The orange osmanthus?
🦅: Yeah yeah
🐹: So will a stick of the orange osmanthus have that smell too?
🦅: Hahaha! 🤣
🐹: I’ve been thinking something smells similar to it…
🦅: It’s quite distinct…
🐹: Will a stick work…
🦅: Oi oi oi, people think it smells good!
🐹: I like the smell of the stick!!
🦅: Doesn’t that mean you like the smell of orange osmanthus?
🐹: I like it!
🦅: So you do like it
🐹: Yeah. I think that’s autumn / fall for me
🦅: Autumn.. Well people also call it the autumn of a hearty appetite
[in Japan because the weather gets cold you want to eat more!]
🦅: Or the Autumn of sports
[also a Japan thing, because of the chilly temperature compared to summer it’s suitable for sports! If the spring is for Cultural Festivals, then autumn is the season for Sports Days in schools!]
🐹: There’s lots!
[🦅 was still deciding]
🐹: Do you have any?
🦅: Hmm… chestnuts?
🐹: Ah, is chestnut autumn too?
🦅: I kinda have that impression
🐹: For me it’s probably acorns!
🦅: My grandmother will send chestnuts around this time of the year. She will make chestnut dango, I love them 😋
🐹: Chestnut dango?
🦅: The dango is the same way as you make it anywhere else, but the filling is chestnut
🐹: Your grandma picked the chestnuts herself?
🦅: Did she?
🐹: Where do you live? Seriously!?
🦅: HAHAHAHA! 🤣🤣🤣🤣
🐹: You’re definitely living in the mountains!
🦅: Oi oi, you’re saying that a lot today!
🐹: Next to your house is an orange osmanthus tree and chestnuts, what kinda place are you living at?
🦅, 🐹: 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
🦅: What about 🐹? When you think of autumn
🐹: Autumn~? Fried fish?
🦅: Oh! It’s appeared!
[it’s a dish that many associate with autumn]
🐹: Autumn is for fried fish isn’t it?
🦅: Rather than autumn, more like 🐹 = fried fish
🐹: I don’t eat it often
🦅: 😂 True. I remember
🐹: I don’t know if I can eat it cleanly / neatly though. You use chopsticks and press right
🦅: Yeah, press (on the fish) to take the fish bone out, that part is always fun
About “gocchisousanmma”
🐹: You know with “gocchisousanmma”. I think the fans are way louder than I am
🦅: HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!! 🤣
🐹: It makes me real happy though 😊
🐹: Even with my in-ear monitors I still hear it, so it makes me really happy. And we need to check our videos right. Everyone’s so loud!
🦅: AHAHAH~ 🤣
🐹: I think after a recent live I actually said “it makes me happy” haha. Especially since fan chants are OK now.
🦅: I get you, and 🐹 usually takes off his in-ears to hear everyone, but like you said in the recent live even with in-ears on you still heard them.
🐹: I’ll need to say it louder from now on 😂 “GOCCHISOUSANMMA!!!”
🦅: Don’t lose everyone!
🐹: Don’t lose! 🔥

MAZZEL PATROL
[Listener 1: When I think of autumn, I think of Sports Day! The BMSG FES ‘23, Osaka Shows was when my child had Sports Day. My kid got their first #1! Although I’d be happy even if they didn’t get #1, they worked hard so winning #1 got me so happy I wanted to cry. Do MAZZEL have any happy memories related to Sports Day?]
🦅: This is a proud happiness~!
🐹: I really like family-related [MAZZEL PATROL messages] 🥺

🦅: Happy memories of Sports Day! You have any?
🐹: Of course!
🦅: OH!
🐹: Can I brag a little bit?
🦅: Brag!! Go ahead!
🐹: Not something I usually do!
🐹: When I was in middle school there was a cavalry battle… I was the leader.. It was an in-class competition [at first]. And I’m the class rep / president right, being the leader… But my class lost! Then finally, it was a battle between all the classes. All the class rep / presidents were up against each other. I thought, I can’t lose this time. And I beat all of them 😤😤😤😤🤣🤣🤣🤣
🦅: HAHAHAHAHA!
🐹: It made me popular! ✨😤🔥
🦅: You’re a hero pretty much!
🐹: So I was quite popular during Sports Days in middle school, hehe 😄
🦅: So cool~~ It would make you popular, definitely!
🦅: I haven’t done cavalry battles before, but seeing it makes you think of youth.
🐹: I felt like I was winning
🦅: At the time?
🐹: It made me super duper happy 😄
🦅: Of course!
🦅: I was in the cheering squad
🐹: Really? RAN?
🦅: Yeah, in middle school I was in the cheering squad. It wasn’t mixed. I remember the after school practices for the cheering squad being super fun.
🐹: It’s youth!
🦅: Very!
🐹: What do you do in those practices?
🦅: Mmmm, we discuss when to shout / chant, what hand movements and gestures, circle around the classes…
🐹: So you have a showdown between squads?
🦅: Yeah!
🐹: Eeehh~
🦅: Like a competition! It was super fun, I was the flag waver.
🐹: The big [flag]?
🦅: Yeah, big. The flag was probably so huge it was x times my size.
🐹: Did [your squad] win / lose?
🦅: We got #1 once I think? I remember that.
🐹: So you were Kumamoto Cheering Squad Leader Ran-san
🦅: No no no nothing like that 😂 I support all the cheering squads from Kumamoto 😊
🐹: So you waved the big flag
🦅: Yup, big flag waver
[Listener 2's neighbour grows oranges so they’ll often get them around this time of year. They thought it would be sour but it was actually very sweet!]
🦅: Mandarins! You often want eat it while you’re sitting in the kotatsu right?
🐹: You do such things that only happens in dramas? 🤣
🦅: I do it at my grandfather’s, Grandpa+grandma’s house.
🐹: So I keep saying, where exactly do you live?
🦅: HAHAHAHAHA! 🤣
🐹: Well, you get oranges anywhere don’t you?
🦅: I wanna ask, after you peel the orange, there’s the white things… do you peel that off too or you don’t?
🐹: I… probably peel that off
🦅: Waow! I need to peel all of it off before eating one!
🐹: Though I actually prefer just eating the whole thing in one go…
🦅: Oi Oi! You’re a monster then, pretty much!
BOTH: 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
🦅: There are people who do that~
🐹: I wonder when’s the last time I had a mandarin?
🐹: Wait, can I talk about a very old episode?
🦅: What what?
🐹: Right before I became a [BMSG] Trainee… It was Ran’s birthday. The office celebrated it right around when THE FIRST ended. I think I went to pay a visit right around that time…
🦅: Yeah, you came~
🐹: I think before leaving the Hidaka parents gifted oranges… / 🦅: They gave oranges!
🐹: I think that was the last time [I had oranges]
🦅: UWA!! That’s so nostalgic!
🦅: You guys, the Hidaka parents are very kind. I’m living on my own right now, they are very nice. They’d always give us something to take home with us when we visit.
🐹: I think there were 5 oranges in the bag!
🦅: I think I also got a few things from them that day. Wah~ This is bringing back memories! Maybe I should have some now. It’s been a while.
🦅: How do you peel the orange? From the middle? / 🐹: Poke from the center right?
🦅: Uh huh. Do you break it in half like that? Or peel the skin off like flower petals?
🦅 : So 🐹 eats the oranges with the skin on
🐹: Yeah - eh? No no no! (🦅: HAHAHAHA!) I peel the skin off! After that I eat it in one go 🤣
Ending
🦅: That was quick~
🐹: So quick~
🦅: Today was mountain-y
🐹: Leave comments like, Mountain-y RAN, Mountain-y Cheer Squad Leader RAN
🦅: And this was “SEITO who eats his oranges in one go”
BOTH: HAHAHAHAH~
🦅: Lots of info today!
🐹: We talked about some episodes too, so wasn’t it pretty good?
🦅: Pretty good!

🐹: I… probably peel that off
🦅: Waow! I need to peel all of it off before eating one!
🐹: Though I actually prefer just eating the whole thing in one go…
🦅: Oi Oi! You’re a monster then, pretty much!
BOTH: 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
🦅: There are people who do that~
🐹: I wonder when’s the last time I had a mandarin?
🐹: Wait, can I talk about a very old episode?
🦅: What what?
🐹: Right before I became a [BMSG] Trainee… It was Ran’s birthday. The office celebrated it right around when THE FIRST ended. I think I went to pay a visit right around that time…
🦅: Yeah, you came~
🐹: I think before leaving the Hidaka parents gifted oranges… / 🦅: They gave oranges!
🐹: I think that was the last time [I had oranges]
🦅: UWA!! That’s so nostalgic!
🦅: You guys, the Hidaka parents are very kind. I’m living on my own right now, they are very nice. They’d always give us something to take home with us when we visit.
🐹: I think there were 5 oranges in the bag!
🦅: I think I also got a few things from them that day. Wah~ This is bringing back memories! Maybe I should have some now. It’s been a while.
🦅: How do you peel the orange? From the middle? / 🐹: Poke from the center right?
🦅: Uh huh. Do you break it in half like that? Or peel the skin off like flower petals?
🦅 : So 🐹 eats the oranges with the skin on
🐹: Yeah - eh? No no no! (🦅: HAHAHAHA!) I peel the skin off! After that I eat it in one go 🤣
Ending
🦅: That was quick~
🐹: So quick~
🦅: Today was mountain-y
🐹: Leave comments like, Mountain-y RAN, Mountain-y Cheer Squad Leader RAN
🦅: And this was “SEITO who eats his oranges in one go”
BOTH: HAHAHAHAH~
🦅: Lots of info today!
🐹: We talked about some episodes too, so wasn’t it pretty good?
🦅: Pretty good!
Hope you enjoyed this episode!
