Wah, that must've been a monster to translate. Good work!!

It's interesting to see them getting more in-depth and Koike-sensei prodding them about their characters' deeper motivations... But I admit I like the feeling and format of Now On Stage better. ^^;;; Still, that's cool that they all seemed to look into the history of their characters as well as putting their own interpretations on them.

(By the way, I think "corporeal" is different from "corporal punishment".)

(-_-; Stupid Japanese stupid run-on sentences. *g*

I really love NOW ON STAGE too, but I also love these round-tables. And this format's easier to translate and share♥ And we get more upperclassmen♥♥♥

"Corporeal" and "corporal" are both acceptable spellings. But I'll change it to make you happy♥

"Sena: Ahahahahaha (laughs).
Kiriya: What?
Sena: Kiriyan (Kiriya) isn’t inexperienced, so it can’t be helped.
Kiriya: No, no, it’s not like that."

Sorry, while I appreciate the effort gone into this and I'm, like, inhaling all the precious details and stuff, I couldn't prevent myself to giggle like a little girl at this XD

*laughs* I had the exact same reaction. I mean, I know the double entendre isn't meant in the original, but I couldn't resist leaving it alone and not changing the English translation. XD

[sarabakanashimi.livejournal.com]

XD I actually hadn't even seen the double meaning until you pointed it out.
I was giggling because it's just so much fun to see them bantering and stuff and it immediately reminded me of stuff from Ernest in Love, most of all in the middle of a serious discussion like that XD.

I like double meanings anyway <3

Drat, I'm just the one with a dirty mind then. *grin*

[sarabakanashimi.livejournal.com]

Not at all, my mind thrives on double meanings XD.

[ekusudei.livejournal.com]

Oh, few.

Also, icon! *laughs*

*gapes in awe*

Wow!! This is great - thank you so much! I really appreciate all of the effort you put into translating this pretty epic interview^^

I found the bit with the three Rudolph's particularly interesting, and the bit with Sonoka made me love her even more XD Plus Masaki is cuuute as ever^^

thankyouthankyouthankyouthankyouthankyouthankyou :D

Whee~ Glad you enjoyed it!!

I thought the comparison of the three Rudolphs from Asako's point of view was really interesting-- but I'd be even more interested to hear what she thought after the run was over, when they'd really solidified their characters. Ah well....

Thank you! ♥♥♥

Thank you so much for translating all of this. Interesting read even if it does make me even more frustrated about not being able to read Japanese. I think I need to kidnap some Japanese speaking person and make them read aloud for me.

[caithion.livejournal.com]

Can I just say how absolutely perfect that icon is for this comment? Studious Sonoka!♥

If you find a kidnap-able person, please let me know. (^^;
