“As something begins, there’s also the fact that one day you’ll have to experience the end as well. Dramas, and this column are the same way. So it’s not just happiness, there’s also a bit of sadness. Life is but a momentary thing. Thinking you can live until you’re 85 might seem long, but it seems short when you think there’s only 60 more springs, summers, winters, and falls left. Saying that it’s been 10 years since Arashi’s debut might seem long, but I can’t see us staying together until we die, so when I start thinking about how many concerts we have left in us, it just doesn’t seem like nearly enough. But just as eternity can’t be found anywhere, I think you should just enjoy every moment, every place, all of it.”

“As time passes, i noticed one thing. while I’m spacing out, I’ll naturally come to think of you…in the end, I still can’t do without you. I like Nino the best!”
—Ohno (via extremelele, hello-there-hamburg-hands)
“Jun: [looks at the article again] This is Aiba’s impression of Ohno: Although he’s not really the type to let loose of himself, he’s really funny. That’s why I think that he will pioneer a new genre of comedy.
Sho: A genre of comedy? (laughs)
Nino: Even though he’s supposed to be an idol…?
Aiba: Ah, did I? You mean I said that?
Nino: Well pioneer all you want, but please do so as an idol!
Jun: Hey listen to this too. This is Nino’s impression of Ohno: “I didn’t think he was all that cheery. We often walk while holding hands.” Say, you guys started holding hands here, right?
Sho: Gross~! (laughs) However, you could tell just by reading this article that Nino had a lot going on with Ohno-kun here. The foundation for Ohmiya SK was laid here, right?
Nino: Ahh, that’s right!
Jun: It happened right when we debuted.
Sho: Ohmiya was formed in Hawaii.
Ohno: We pretty much developed from there, didn’t we?” —Arashi, Wink Up 2008 (via shinkirou-)

“I have no words to describe Nino’s charm, other than the word, “Everything”. If I had to apply a catchphrase [to Nino] it would be “The Almighty Man!” In particular, I have nothing but admiration for his advances in magic. That’s because everyone forgets about solving the magic trick and is just mesmerized by the deftness of Nino’s hands. (laughs) The greatest memory I have with Nino is (no surprises there) Ohmiya SK, I guess. We were so brilliant then… But my passion for the reunion of Ohmiya SK hasn’t changed one bit! What if we had some time off? That’s it, I’ll invite Nino to some trendy department store. I’m extremely interested in what the “Almighty Man” will buy. And this is something that happens once in a while, I have times when I think that I don’t want to lose to Nino. For example, if Nino were to go for a date at Roppongi Hills, I would go to the newer Mid Town. And stuff like that. (laughs) I wonder why that is?”

“Did you know? Nino’s hands are small and cute, though not cute like a girl’s hands. It’s not a nice way to say it, but they’re short and stout, sort of like thick hamburgers. In other words, they’re ugly-cute (laugh). If I were to say it in dog terms, it would be a bulldog.”

“I don’t become embarrassed when I’m shown my old photos and images. Because my face hasn’t changed at all! Really, I’m such a boring guy (wry smile).”
