  • Kobukuro + Yu Aoi CM

    For those of you who didn’t know, Kobukuro has just released a brand new album (CALLING), which I’m not necessarily loving… but that’s a tough job to pull considering how awesome ALL SINGLES BEST was as a compilation.

    Anyway…

    SPAZZ! There’s a new article over at Barks.jp with a couple of
    photos of Yu on the CM for the new album…
    also with a new interview.

  • More Yu

    Yu Aoi - July09 More InterviewOver at the Yu Aoi LJ Comm, there are brand new scans with an interview title “All About Yu Aoi” [insert Lily Chou Chou reference in here]. Scans are okay-ish size for photos… but knida makes it difficult to read or “try to read” as I call it. Plus, they have watermarks that make it even more difficult for me to try to get kanji xD

    Sucks to be me.

    Anyway, I did manage to get some of the titles and sub headings to get myself an idea of what’s going on here.

    It goes something like this…

    Likes, dislikes and the Actual Me

    All About Yu Aoi

    It has to do something with her success as an actress, and… her happy face (???) but yet precocious nature? xD – What’s the deal?  “Now, we all know “All About Yu Aoi””

    Pun intended. LOL

    Then, I think… they talk a bit about her views on this beautiful world (?), how awesome it is to work with Kyoko Koizumi (referring to the Gakuya play), how awesome (or how it makes her happy?) to have Scone in the mornings. As well as… opinions on Love? (Koi, Ai… Suki and Aisuru) – Ecological issues? ~~~ ?

    Something to do with movies and journies and searching? And wait, wait… funny part.

    とにかく食べることが大好き (笑)。
    Tonikaku taberu koto ga daisuki (wara?).
    I generally love to eat (laughs).

    LOL. I can get that.

    ANYWAY. Any proper translation would be welcomed! ^^
