Welcome to Kevin's English Room Podcast!
You weren't ready for that much of a "I know it" weren't you?
Yeah.
I noticed you at the half end, you were like "Ugh!"
You're not even saying anything, just filling in the gaps.
Yeah, the vibes.
Yeah, the vibes. You got the vibes going?
Yeah.
Okay, fair enough.
I was from Hip Hop town.
Right.
You know?
Right.
I was born and raised in Hip Hop.
Get it. Get yours man!
Yeah.
Get yours.
Alright.
Alright.
We're back.
Okay.
We're back.
So, I actually...
Like last night I saw the television.
Yeah.
And there was a commercial message from Maison.
Jesus Christ!
To me.
What channel was that?
It was TBS.
What time?
7.
PM?
Yeah.
She must have spent a fuckload of money on that commercial spot.
Yeah, must be a rich girl.
Yeah.
Damn.
Maybe she sold all the avocados.
Yeah, maybe.
Because she doesn't have the avocados in her name.
Yeah.
She probably sold it all.
Mm-hmm.
Gained a fuckload of money.
Right.
And now she's used it to buy the TV spot for the commercial.
Yeah.
And now she's got...
That's what maybe.
Must be so expensive.
Thank you Maison.
Thank you Maison.
So, in the commercial message she told me...
Yeah.
That...
Who is your favorite actress?
Japanese, foreign, model or artist?
Mmm.
That's a very, very wide question there.
Wide question.
"Suki" is a very difficult question, you know?
Okay.
Tell me, tell me.
Like, sexually or like...
What is she talking about there?
She's talking about...
That's all actually.
"Sukina Jouyuu San"
Got it, got it.
So it doesn't have to be the opposite.
You're...
Okay.
Hmm.
Hmm.
Actually...
Is that different for you?
Like...
Mm-hmm.
When...
Who you like sexually versus like who you love...
Yeah, yeah.
As an actor in general, like as a figure?
Yeah.
What do you mean that...
As a...
I mean...
I'm not talking about an AV Jouyuu here.
No, of course not.
That's not what I'm talking about.
Of course not.
I do understand that.
But...
You know, what is the difference between...
Like you're saying...
Like...
Jouyuu San in a sexual way.
Yeah, like I'm talking about like...
If you were to overlay your personal favorite...
Your personal...
Looks on women...
03:00
Mm-hmm.
Who would you overlay that to?
Okay.
That's the one question.
And another question is...
Who do you like as a person?
Like...
When it comes to that person...
And like maybe in terms of like living style or like acting style...
Things of that nature.
Mm-hmm.
Right.
Like a lot of people ask...
Well, who's your favorite Jouyuu?
Mm-hmm.
And the means of like...
The appearance.
What's your favorite appearance?
Okay.
And who in the celebrity world are you closest to?
Are you okay?
You feel pain.
Yeah.
I can see you feeling that pain.
What happened?
I don't know.
Your head?
Your hair?
Yeah.
Did something happen to your hair, man?
Yeah.
What happened?
I don't know.
But it's like...
So sticky.
What do you mean sticky?
Like...
It's literally sticky?
Yeah, but it's gone now.
That's weird.
Okay.
Sorry about that.
No, no problem.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Right.
Those are the two that I was asking.
Okay.
So...
Right, for me...
What is she saying in the commercial?
No, that was, you know, spot commercial.
So it was just five minutes.
Did she not clarify?
No.
It was just 30 minutes.
30 seconds, right?
Yeah, yeah.
30 seconds, I'm sure she had time to clarify that.
Yeah, but you know, there were some songs and she danced a lot of it.
Got it, got it, got it.
Well, then I'm sure there's no time for further elaboration then.
Yeah, but that's the commercial message.
So little logos here.
You're right.
Yeah, little avocados around her.
Avocados from Mexico.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
You know, right?
Yeah, yeah.
What?
Okay.
It's popping on TikTok right now.
Yeah, I'm sure you don't know, but...
The what?
Avocados from Mexico.
Oh, really?
Yeah, it's popping on social media.
Avocado from Mexico.
Right, the sound logo, you know?
Okay.
Right, I don't know why, but it's a trend.
Wow.
Yeah, it's a spontaneous trend.
It'll probably end soon by the time we publish the podcast, I'm sure.
Okay.
All right.
So who do you like?
Well, okay, so let me ask you this.
So, no, I'm not going to ask you anything.
My favorite...
All right.
You know, in terms of looks, I always went with Arimura Kasumi as looks.
Oh, really?
Yeah, but I'm a little bit over her right now.
What?
I'm a little bit kind of used to seeing her face so much that I kind of really not feel
anything when I see her face anymore.
Wow.
Yeah.
Okay.
So please punch me in the face.
Who am I to speak?
But in terms of acting and stuff like that, I'd go for like Tsumabiki Satoshi.
That's a man.
Yeah.
No.
I'm talking about...
That was a kind of Jo-yu-san.
Ah, shit.
Oh, that's good.
06:00
Ah, shit.
Okay.
Oh, sorry about that.
I'm sorry.
It's okay.
I didn't know about that, so sorry about that.
That's not what...
It's a very dangerous...
You're stepping into a very dangerous topic politically here, so you may want to be careful
what you're going to say.
Okay, sorry about that.
Okay.
I would do like...
So in terms of like looks, I don't know guys, in terms of like acting skills and stuff like
that, I would go for like...
I don't know.
I can't think of anything.
Oh.
Do you have something?
Yeah.
Do you feel the time right now?
For me, all the actresses are looking good to me.
Right.
You know, that's what I am, so...
That's what you are.
Right.
That's who you are.
I like everybody, so...
That's how you look at the world.
Yeah.
Yeah.
So like there's not the one...
Right.
...that typically I am into.
Every one of them.
Yeah, talking about the looks.
Right.
Right?
They're all great.
Like to be honest...
Yeah, right.
I know you're not trying to be like this good looking dude, but like...
True.
I mean...
You literally feel that way.
Yeah.
I know that.
They are all looking good.
I know that.
Literally, I know that.
So like there's not...
Like I do like Arimura Kasumi-san and...
Right.
Forever.
Just as much as Nagasawa...
Masami-san.
Masami, of course.
Of course.
Right.
Right.
Yeah.
So that's my answer.
I like everybody.
Right.
So that's my first answer.
Right.
Right.
And then the second one, I don't have typical actress, but the typical character...
Okay.
Like the...
Role.
Role.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I like Arimura Kasumi-san in the BDGAL movie.
Wow.
I've never seen that film.
Oh, really?
Yeah.
So, um...
Aki-chan.
She's called Aki-chan.
Okay.
Actually, I don't know the name of the actress.
Okay.
But Aki-chan in...
What's the film?
In "Shitamachi Rocket."
I don't know that either.
Is Aki-chan the wife of the protagonist?
No, no, no, no.
No, it's a different person.
Okay.
But what did you like about her?
If you can...
I like...
BDGAL.
Mm-hmm.
She's really, like, strong.
Okay.
Young lady.
Mm-hmm.
I try hard.
Like, trying...
Like, studying hard every day, every day, and having dream and pursue for that dream.
Mm.
And also, she's really kind to her friends.
09:02
Oh, really?
Her family.
Oh, I didn't know that.
And, yeah, that's what I like.
And also, she's really frank and really honest lady.
Oh, really?
Okay.
Like, she says...
She speaks the truth.
Yeah.
Always.
Right.
She doesn't hide anything.
Like, she don't tell lies.
Mm-hmm.
She doesn't bullshit anybody.
Right.
That's what I like.
Okay.
Makes sense.
Yeah.
Fair enough.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Like, that seems like your answer.
Like, I feel you, man.
Yeah.
Mm-hmm.
But I do like everybody.
You do like everybody.
Yep.
And I know you're not, like...
I know that's not a bullshit answer.
Like, to make yourself look good.
I know that you...
Is that makes me look good?
Well, like, that's...
Like, I'm saying I like everybody.
Right.
Like, if you didn't have any contextual background and I'm...
Yeah.
Yeah, that's how everybody would think.
Really?
Yeah.
Like, "Everyone's so cool."
Yeah, yeah.
That kind of bullshit.
If you say that, yeah.
Kind of gray answer.
Yeah, yeah.
But it's not like that.
I do...
Seeing that in the real...
No, no, no.
That's exactly what you're saying.
Yeah.
If you don't have any context, right?
Right, right.
But it's come from you, so...
Yeah.
Makes sense.
Right.
All righty.
That's about 10 minutes.
So there you go.
Yeah.
Bye-bye.
There you go.
There you go.
Damn.
What?
Arimu, so...
We're both on Arimu and Kasumi.
Oh, then...
She's an amazing person.
She's an amazing actor.
Yeah.
Like, got the visuals and also got the...
Well, I mean, you like the character.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
You like the character.
Yeah.
But the visual.
But the visual too, right?
I do like her personality too, actually.
Like the actual person?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Do you know the history that she...
No.
Okay.
She...
You know, all actresses and models saying that, you know, I was walking in the street
and some guy came to me and scouted.
Yeah.
And she's not some kind of lady like that.
She...
Like being actress is her dream.
So that she writes the paper, like a little issue paper and send it to the company like
several times and go to the men's sets.
And once the company rejected her saying that...
Actually, she's from Kansai.
So she has her accent.
And that's why... and she was a little like bigger at the time.
That's what she said.
So the company rejected and, "Oh, sorry, but please come one year later.
You can work on your accent.
See you later."
And after that, she like worked hard and trying to fix her accent and lose her weight and
then came again and got the seat now.
12:01
Wow.
I like that story.
Some tough mentality.
Yeah, I like that tough mentality that's trying hard.
Spirit.
Nice.
Yeah.
Okay.
So there you go.
Yep.
Thanks for listening again, guys.
Bye bye.
Thanks for listening again guys! Bye bye!
