Note: In the month of December, 2023 the CHALLENGER was JUNON with former professional soccer player, Makino Tomoaki, who played for Japan's national team.
Intro
🐧: Hi, it’s MANATO. My partner for today was supposed to be RYOKI but he’s taking a day off. Sorry to those who were looking forward to the two of us. BUT! I got this person on, say hello!
🦁: Hello, this is SKY-HI
🐧: SKY-HI~
🦁: Yoroshiku onegaishimasu~
🐧: It’s 🦁-kun actually 🤣
🦁: 🤣 Onegaishimasu
🐧: We’re getting to the end of the year…
🦁: One month!
🐧: Very fast!
🦁: Coming up!
🐧: Fast right? We’ve got our tour and year-end shows too
🦁: It’s approaching the year-end so we’ve received a lot of awards plus appearances at year-end shows..
🐧: November and December there’s definitely…
🦁: A lot right?
🐧: MTV-san’s…
🦁: VMJ right?
🦁: You get to meet a lot of different artists backstage right?
🐧: Yeah, I thought you’d say that
🦁: And that makes you happy right?
🐧: We also had collabs… The same generation collab (🦁: Yeah~) for TV, and DUNK too (🦁: DUNK!). When you collab with artists who debut round the same time as you… even though we’re part of different agencies.
🦁: I met with Yagi-kun (Yagi Yusei from FANTASTICS)! Well, it was via the TV, but he said “DUNK was the best! I wanna go again!”
🐧: That makes me happiest
🦁: It’s great, it made me happy too
🐧: My senpai from Fukuoka, Leiya-kun from FANTASTICS, was happy too, to stand with his senpais in Tokyo. And Lil’ League’s Tacchan (Nakamura Tatssuhiro) and Kodai (Yamada Kodai) are from Fukuoka too. Sometimes, I think how you can only meet up this way and it makes me happy.
🦁: Me too, Shigetora (Sato Shigetora from THE JET BOY BANGERZ).. I knew him since he was little.
🐧: Amazing right
🦁: I think DUNK is an event where you recover some of your memories. It’s a great event.
🐧: Mmm mm, it’s a great project
🦁: We’ve got more special appearances coming up, so we’ll be interacting with various people backstage!
🐧: True!
🦁: It’ll be interesting if we appear as guests one day
🐧: For sure!
🦁: Everyone’s interacting and that’s why it’s fun
🐧: Yup!
🦁: Let’s do our best heading towards the end of the year 💪
🐧: Yes, we’ve still got more to go, so let’s! 💪
🦁: We’ve been to a couple of concerts lately so I couldn’t decide if I wanted to play Sandaime-san’s song..
🐧: True! That was touching.
🦁: “13 over” just played and we talked about it right.. There’s a movie I went to see recently and I thought it was really good. Aina The End-san appeared in it and the song that plays at the end by.. Kyrie? So I thought I’ll play that. What about Mana-chan?
🐧: Cody Jon, they’re from Australia, and 21 years old.
🦁: That’s young!
🐧: Pretty much the same generation as us
🦁: True, they’re younger than Manato by one year
🐧: They started off by doing covers at home… The song I’m sharing is a collab he did with SIRUP. The melody during the hook is super good, so I want people to listen to it.
🐧: We’re on our arena tour and will be at PIA Arena for 12/20 and 12/21. I think it’s quite moving, being back at this place.
🦁: Right? It takes you back.
🐧: We’ve been there for events… Without in-ears
🦁: Yeah, without in-ears. The first MTV…
🐧: I’m happy we get to go back there
🦁: THE FIRST FINAL was also there.
🐧: Right? So I’m looking forward to it
🦁: Aannnd, [in the cutest English possible] BE:FIRST LIVE IN DOME TWENTY TWENTY FO! (🐧: wwww) From Mainstream to Masterplan. 3/2 and 3/3 we’re in TOKYO DOME (🐧: Tokyo Dome www) Then 4/20 and 4/21, we’re in KYOCERA DOME. (🐧: KYOCERA DOME!) We’re gonna be performing at the domes, finally!
🐧: Thank you so much~
🦁: It’s thanks to BESTYs, truly.
🐧: Thank you again~
🐧: From Mainstream to Masterplan, my bro. (🦁: Yeah) What does it mean and what’s going to happen, I hope you all come and experience it for yourself.
🦁: We hope so! It’s our first dome [tour] too.
On Glorious and one more song…
🦁: “Glorious” is written by me, 🐧, and 🐢. 🐢 and 🐧 wrote the melody line.. You two actually had two songs right?
🐧: That’s right, we made two songs. One was “Glorious” and the other was more up-tempo (🦁: Yeah) and.. How would you put it, a stadium-esque song. If it’s for high schoolers and the national tournament, it’s kind of a farewell to your youth isn’t it? Things you can only do during your time as a student. Like, putting in time to study or play a sport are things that stay with you. I made this song and chose this one [out of the two] because I hope that 5 years, 10 years from now if you hit an obstacle in your life, this song reminds you that you worked hard at a certain period of time, that you did your best, and you should remember and treasure that.
🦁: I wrote the lyrics and mmmm… like 🐧 said, this isn’t just for the soccer players that participate in nationals, it’s also the people who are in charge of them; cheering on the people who are working hard towards something. We definitely hope a lot of people listen to it 😊
🦁: We have songs that define our youth, so we hope this song becomes that for someone too.
🐧: We have a special movie for “Glorious” too. We had time to look back on our past, it feels like the baton continues to be passed and connects our past self with the us right now. And because we’re like this now, we work hard and look forward to our future selves. We’ll be happy if you can treasure this song
Ending
🐧: How was it?
🦁: It was fun! I get to meet a lot of great music through this program 😊 I haven’t been able to listen to MILLI-BILLI lately. But when I’m at the gym I’ll listen to it on the radio all the time. Makes me want a radio
🦁: And I haven’t quite decided on my next hairstyle and hair colour.
🐧: Ohhhh! It doesn’t really matter though and isn’t this not on-topic? 😂 I thought you were gonna talk about radio but you switched to [talking about] visuals.
🦁: I’ve been undecided on this for six months now so that’s why it’s been… like this 💦
🐧: Ah, so you’ve been sticking with this [hairstyle]. Haven’t you been using the.. What’s that called now.
🦁: Hairband?
🐧: Yeah yeah, how about using that?
🦁: Use a hairband?
🐧: Make it a standard or something.
🦁: I don’t think…
🐧: You often wear it in private but you haven’t wore it on stage.
🦁: It might fly off, the hairband. It’s flown off during rehearsals
🐧: What? No no no no no.
🦁: It’s happened a few times. I’d wear a hairband to rehearsal, when it feels like it’s falling I’ll just hold it in my hand as we dance.
🐧: But now that I’ve said it I think people want to see now. Maybe one photo shoot [you had the hairband]
🦁: It’s probably in a video.
🐧: Video?
🦁: Yeah, maybe. Maybe.
🐧: Go look for it now everybody.
🦁: Sorry everyone~ 🙏
Hope you enjoyed!
