[ Second half of the interview ]—The two of you are able to talk with each other often while on set, aren’t you? How do you feel about one another?Jurina : At the very beginning I thought that we were total opposites. I’m an outdoor person and Rena-chan’s an indoor person. She would keep to herself, or rather…I didn’t know what kind of person she was. Just like Anna.Rena : Back when I first entered SKE48, I had completely shut out everyone around me and didn’t talk to anybody. I didn’t even eat meals with the others. My first impression of Jurina was that she was very lively girl. Right from the beginning everyone around me would say things like “Jurina’s amazing!” but since I was preoccupied with my own matters at the time, I didn’t know for sure. Then as I got to know Jurina more and more, I came to realize that there were a lot of unexpected sides to her as well, and the distance between us shortened. For one thing, she actually gets scared pretty easily (laughs). She doesn’t like insects, so even while on stage she’ll shriek and run away if one happens to pass by. Even though she’s an outdoor person.Jurina : I was scolded right there on stage.Rena : Like, “We’re in the middle of work!” (laughs).Jurina : Rena-chan says that she likes being by herself, but she’s good at taking care of others. When we happen to stay in the same hotel room together, she notices that I’m no good at packing up my luggage and will tell me, “This is how you do it,” and do it for me. She’s almost like a big sister or a mother.—Do you two ever have arguments?Rena : We do it quietly (laughs). Jurina sometimes gets too excited and will be like, “Uwa~!” and then I’ll be like, “Stop that!”Jurina : That happens a lot.Rena : I’ll get angry and then Jurina sulks. That kind of pattern.Jurina : We’ll bicker and complain, but after that it’ll be like, “Oh well, it doesn’t matter,” and it ends just like that. We don’t hold any grudges.Rena : Rather than a sense of friendship where we want to get along and spend time together, I think the feeling of wanting to watch over and take care of each other is stronger.Jurina : Maybe it’s because we’ve been together for so long that we’ve become more like family. There are lots of times when we don’t talk to each other even though we’re in the same room.Rena : That’s true. Friends might feel uncomfortable when there’s no conversation happening, but when you’re with somebody you really trust, just by being together there’s a sense of comfort. Even if you’re not talking, that time you spend together is precious. Perhaps that’s also how Anna felt about Marnie.—If you had to invite somebody to watch this movie with you?Rena : The person who pops into my head is my mother.Jurina : I’d also bring my family. I’d like to express my feelings of thanks to them by watching this together. Original Source http://www.yomiuri.co.jp/culture/special/ghibli/gnews/20140812-OYT8T50076.html
What exactly happens when Airin, Kanakana and Nishishi tries to create a WMatsui fic? Translated by gekikaraclub.tumblrQuoteFrom 111026 Happy☆HoriKanakana: Talking about pairings, what pairings does everyone like?Everyone: hmmKanakana: I like JuriRena.*silence*Kanakana:Well, it’s good. Also, Jurina will go ”Rena-chan~~” and Rena would turn her head~Airin: That’s good~ They have a difference in personality.Kanakana: One seems strong while the other is weak(like a beansprout lol). Nishishi: I understand I understandAirin: One being good at sports, the other is more of a reading person. It’s good it’s good!Kanakana: One has cute, while one is pretty. Nishinishi: They are both Matsui in the same school. She has no friends, and Rena would think if it’s actually okay to be together or not.And then Furukawa starts to imagine.Airin: Rena-san is always reading a book by the window. She looks outside the window, everyone was cheering and such. She initially had no interest in Jurina-san, but then slowly became interested. She wants to talk to Jurina-san, but she feels that she’s very normal and was concerned about that. Until one day, when Rena-san was reading a book, Jurina suddenly came in and said “Please recommend me a book”Nishishi: Rena was reading a book, and Jurina came in. Rena closed her book and said “I’ve been waiting”Kanakana: At the library, Rena was noticing Jurina who was different from her. Although there were many people but Jurina was more concerned about what kind of person Rena was although she wasn’t close with Rena. And then Jurina walked over and said “Why are you avoiding me” Rena got angry and said “I’m not avoiding you~!” Then when Jurina was down, Rena would console her.Kanakana: *bouncing up and down* fun~~~~Airin: I, let me go again. Somehow, Rena-san is sleeping in the library, Jurina-san came in and sat beside her, and after staring at Rena-san, she thinks, as expected, Rena-san is pretty.Kanakana: *interrupts* long black hair Airin: and then Jurina touches Rena-san’s hair. *does the action* Rena-san wakes up and then Jurina-san goes “Ah, I’m sorry”And then Kanakana starts sings Two Rose. LOLKanakana:もしも 君が薔薇なIf you were a rose (everyone joins in) Kanakana: And then when they talk, Jurina would say “I was always watching you!” Rena would go “Stop it~~”Kanakana: What couple would we talk about next time? Please look forward to it.The TWO ROSES part was just... Was this the basis for the KataFai PV?!Oh my god, this round-robin fic writing session killed me. They must do it again! Airin, Kanakana and Nishishi got mad skillz, yo!
