Excerpts:Maachan: So, Sanma-san. Would you say you're good at analyzing people?--Yokoyan: Hey, don't go pointing at people with pencils!!)Sanma: You shouldn't point at them with your finger eitherMaachan: Anyway, are you good at analyzing people?Sanma: I'm not. There was a period when I thought I was though. Like a period where I thought I had a good eye for people, and thought I could figure them out. Reaching this age I've realized you can't really figure people out completely though, not even those closest to you.All: hmmmSanma: Likewise, you can't really get another person to understand you fully, right? What you're thinking etc. Like a kid will never know everything about their parents or vice versa. Like in my case, I've lied to both my daughter and my parents.When they grow up, parents make decisions for their children, it was the same with me and my daughter. My daughter is probably still thinking stuff like "He doesn't understand me" sometimes, but to be honest I don't really try to understand her either.Sanma: So yeah, Satou. In your case, no one will every be able to fully understand you. Maachan: Hehehe ***Maachan: As for TV dramas, I don't remember who but someone in the staff was like "Please watch this, you are so gonna like it" and that was how I got into watching them. Now I look them up myself too.Sanma: So you like TV dramas. Do you watch any right now?Maachan: I do! I do!Sanma: Any in particular you like right now?Maachan: I don't remember the title, but it's the one with Takuya Kimura and they research his brain or somethingSanma: Takuya Kimura's brain..?Harunan: Mr. Brain?Maachan: That's it!!Harunan: It's a bit old..Sanma: Wasn't that from forever ago?Maachan: Hey, is that English?Harunan: It's English.Maachan Whoo, it's definitely that one then.Harunan: So like, Maachan generally watches dramas that date quite a while backMaachan: Yeah I watch the interesting ones I find while searching aroundSanma But Mr. Brain is from quite a while back.Do you like watch it on DVD or?Maachan: Oh, no like... These days there's lots of stuff like that online, right? (Arrr mateys ☠)Harunan: You can stream themMaachan: Right streaming. So yeah I watch streams I find.Maachan: Oh, so you watch them like that, huh
Excerpt:Fan letter: Masaki released her first visual photobook back in October last year. Shot in her native Hokkaido, it was a lovely photobook where we got to experience her in all kinds of outfits. Sadly enough, there weren't any photos of her in swim wear. When asked about it in an interview, said it was because it'd be embarrassing if her parents saw it. I'm sure she'll release a second one in the future, so please Sanma-san could you convince her (to go bikini)Maachan: There's nothing you could say that would convince me though.Sanma: But what if I personally request you to shoot one in swimwear? Still wouldn't do it? Maachan: NopeSanma: How come you're against wearing swimwear?Maachan: Huh? If someone told you to walk around butt naked, would you do it?Sanma:If I get paid, I'd do it Maachan: How much would you charge then?Sanma: Good question. For walking around Akasaka naked? Maachan: Yeah, how much would it take for you to do it?Sanma: Hmm. ¥1000 000Maachan: Right? So say we (idols) wear a swimsuit. The photobook is like 3000something yen, right? 70% of that money doesn't even go to us. Harunan: Damn, now we started talking actual business. Yokoyan: Lol when did you become so pragmaticHarunan: I do get what you're saying thoughMaachan: It's basically what I was toldSanma: If you take all the photos, as well as publish it yourself, all the money would go to you thoughMaachan: Yeah, so when I was told about this by staff, I said I don't want to do it if my share's gonna be that low.Maachan: Like being naked Sanma: It's swim wear, isn't it? Not being naked.Maachan: Sure, in this case it might be swim wear. But I think people who view people's bodies in such a shallow way really need to check their brainsHarunan: Omg lol Sanma: It's not that shallow though Maachan: It is. The whole question is.Sanma: No, you're wrong about this. Maachan: Yep, I'm wrong about a lot.Harunan: By the way, we brought her photobook with usSanma: Oh, you did?Yokoyan: She's been hiding it the entire time though Sanma:Let me have it already thoughMaachan: Yeah, but I don't want to Sanma: Come on, your agency who sent it with you go promote it right? Though it's true you won't even get to see 70% of the profitsMaachan:I don't even know the real number, just that 70% is already out of the picture Sanma: You should look it over in your contract. Like bring over your parents too to discuss your share from photobooks.Sanma: Oh this was taken at a farm in Hokkaido?Maachan: Yeah. Sanma: Yeah, this isn't even the time or place for swimwear. Like you're on an open field with sheep.Maachan: Oh, but how about this. If you release a photobook where you're naked, I'll release one too. Yokoyan: Woaaah, that's a bit..Harunan: To be clear, you'd be naked, but Maa would be in swimsuitSanma: I just need to know like, do I need to be fully naked or can I cover things with like footballs Maachan: Oh yeah, that's fineSanma: I've already done thatMaachan: Oh, you did? Sanma: Yeah, when J-League started I did a campaign poster with Kamamotsu (former star player) where we were nakedMaachan: Isn't your naked body something you would only show your partner, that's how I feel at least.Sanma: For girls it's usually like that, yeah. We're talking swim wear though. Maachan: But there's like barely any difference between swim wear and underwearSanma: What kinda swim wear are you thinking about? Like the ones you ownMaachan: Apart from a few occassions, I've barely ever worn any. Sanma: But how come you're so against wearing swim wear, we're in an age where people show more skin in general Maachan: What about you, Harunan? Didn't you find it embarrassing. Harunan: I did, and I didn't enjoy it. That's why I only wore one in the entire photobook.Maachan: I can't even do one. Sanma: I mean, Harunan has other reasons for the lack of swimsuits too...Harunan: Well yeah, you could say I have a handicap that worked in my favour...Yokoyan: Must be rough Sanma: You shot one with swim wear too? Yokoyan: Ya. I didn't like wearing it either though.Sanma: It's not really a question of liking it or not though, it's workHarunan: Yeah, it's workSanma: Yeah, you do it because fans want to see it. Maachan: If we're gonna call it work, I want 180 million yen for doing. Yokoyan: Why 180, why not go for 200 million Sanma: You want 180 millionMaachan: 180 millionSanma: So why not 200 million?Maachan: I figured that might be a bit extreme. Sanma: Like the publisher probably wouldn't go along with that?Yokoyan: Gotta think realisticallySanma: It's kinda like how we're led to believe something that costs 98 yen is way cheaper than something that costs 100 yenMaachan: Yeah, or like how half an hour feels kinda soonish, while 40 minutes feels like a long time.Sanma: Yeah. Anyway so you'd do it for 180 million. Would nudes be included in that price too? Maachan: For nude shoots I'd need 60 billion yen.Sanma: Yeah, your agency would never cash out thatSanma: You'd take 60 billion to go nude, huh? Is your naked body worth that much. Maachan: It is Sanma: No wayMaachan: It's not just me. Everyone is worth that much, you, Yokoyan, All the staff.Sanma: But I've been saying I'll walk through Harajuku naked for a million. Maachan: Yeah, but if you don't think of it as that big a deal, you're totally free to do so. Sanma: Maybe I am taking it too lightly... Esp compared to 60 billionSanma: Anyway I guess we've figured the only one gets to see it is the person who'd become your lover. Maachan: I wonder what I'd do if I actually did get a partner.Sanma: I would never fall for you, by the way. Maachan: I feel you. It's mutual. Sanma: Yeah, no need to worry about thatMaa/Yoko: HAHAHA
Sato Masaki will be voicing the character Mei (a baby) in the new season of the 'Ahare! Meisaku-kun' anime shortshttps://twitter.com/hipnewsservice/status/1104278290053898241
- When asked about her character, director Shinkai said "It's a character that is growing up, he's still a baby. In today's recording, he just says 'Babuu~!' only (LOL)"- Since her character is a baby learning and remembering words, director Shinkai said "Sato-san also doesn't know much about words" "Just while ago, I said 'It's NG' then she asked me 'What does NG means?' she is living in the world that not using the word NG" -> He talked about Season 4 (of Aware! Meisaku-kun) "The show's highlight is the growth of Mei-chan and Maachan (Sato)"- When asked what she had prepared for the recording, Maa said "I watched videos of baby! It's video of my sister when they were still a baby but it was just a watse of time (LOL) since it's completely different. My line is like 'Babuu~' then director-san told me 'It's not talking in real way, just say it 'Babuu~' in normal way' so I think 'Ah~ it's really different' "- Her reaction to Eguchi-san's shout is very funny- Eguchi-san said Maa was laughing a lot during the test then Maa said "I'm sorry, I will try my best to hold it back in this 1 year" "Next time, please stop me (from laughing)!"- Talking about her challenge as a voice actress, she said "It feels like I can see a new self of mine, I'm very happy"BUT she doesn't want fans knows about it "I don't want to say to them!"... Everyone was like "Why, please say it!" "You're embarrassed by this job?" then Maa said "I want them to realize my voice. So please mosaic my name"- Then they asked her what is the difference between being a voice actress and standing on stage acting in a musical, Maa "The way of getting nervous is different. I don't have to stand in front of the audiences, it's 360 degrees different" then others "Isn't it the same?" "You mean 180 degrees!" https://natalie.mu/comic/news/321412Thanks to page11 from H!O
