Translation from

:
- The leader of High-King is of course Aichan?Takahashi Ai: No, we haven't decided the leader yet. Because it's a unit consisting of each group's leaders and captains.
Tanaka Reina: Then, let's just take the middle and make Reina the leader.
The other 4: We're counting on you.
Tanaka: No, no, no. (lol)
Takahashi: Why not?
Tanaka: Then I'm the "Leader". (lol)
- Well then, the "Leader" should introduce the other members. First Takahashi Ai-chan.
Tanaka:As for Aichan, I know two kinds of Aichan. When she's singing there's a certain something about her that we can't imitate, something that's appropriate for her age. But when it comes to variety, she has a
character where you ask yourself if she's not the most childish one among us. One Aichan who's mature and one who's immature. I think the gap between these two makes men go crazy. (lol)
- Next is Shimizu Saki-chan.
Tanaka:The image I have of Saki-chan is "Saki-chan = dance". When I see her in rehearsals of Hello!Project concerts, I think to myself "She's really something else.". Her dance is really intense. Makes you wonder "Isn't it exhausting to dance like that?". Isn't it exhausting?
Shimizu Saki: Well, I can't say it's not exhausting at all...
Tanaka:But you can still keep on dancing for as long as the others. Eventhough your dancing is much more exhausting. I think it's amazing.
Takahashi: You really like dancing, right?
Tanaka: Yeah, one can directly see that you love to dance.
Shimizu: Thank you very much.
- Next is Yajima Maimi-chan.
Tanaka: The impression I have of Maimi-chan is that she's very modest. She seems well-mannered. Like the daughter of a high-class family. She's intelligent, has a nice personality and is cute... That's the kind of
image I have of her. Like she always uses fork and knife when eating.
(lol)
- She really seems like you said.
Yajima Maimi: No~ (shy)
- Then Maeda Yuuka-chan (born in December 28th, 1994).
Tanaka:The image I had of Yuuka-chan is that she's tiny, but she's suddenly
grown taller. Her face is still like that of a child though. She seems
to be calm and gentle, so I'm sure it's very pleasant to be around her.
- Yuuka-chan, surrounded by these 4 (self-called) leaders and captains.... will you do your best?
Maeda Yuuka: Umm.. I'll do my best!
The other 4: Cute~
- Well then, Aichan should introduce Reina-chan since you're both in Morning Musume.
Takahashi:Reina said that I have two different personalities. However that's not the case for Reina at all. She's always just Reina. (lol) She's the one of us with the most distinctive personality, so I think she's a very strong-minded girl.
- What should we pay attention to when listening to your debut single "C\C (Cinderella\Complex)" which will bereleased on June 11th?
Tanaka:When I first heard that it's the promotion song for "Cinderella the musical", I thought it'd be a ballad. Like "Oh, happiness!". (lol)
Shimizu: But it's a very cool song and the lyrics are a bit sad too.
Yajima:The story of "Cinderella" mothers read out for their children when
they're small is about the fulfillment of your dreams. This is a song
about a girl who knows that things don't go as well in reality as in
dreams.
- What do you think, Yuuka-chan?
Maeda:I haven't sung many "cool" kind of songs in the newcomer performances, so I was worrying if I'll be able to sing it in a cool way. But when I heard the song I thought I'd try to put myself into the position of the main protagonist and do my best.
Takahashi:This unit really has a fresh feel to it. The possibilities are endless and I'm looking forward to seeing what will happen from now on. That's why I want everyone to look forward to "High-King" too.
- The story of "Cinderella" ends with a happy-end. Speaking of "Cinderella",please tell us about "recent happy events" in your lives.
Takahashi: The other day when I got holidays after a long time, I did some extreme shopping. (lol) My mother accompanied me and I bought lots of dresses. I also bought dresses matching with my younger sister's ones etc., it was a lot of fun.
Tanaka:This year we'll go overseas on many occasions. Taiwan, South Korea, Shanghai.. I'm very happy that Morning Musume will get to perform live in many different places.
Yajima: I went to watch "
Enchanted" with my mother the other day. I felt very happy after watching that movie and I was also very happy that I could go watch it because I love movies.
Shimizu:As for me, I'm happy that I can take part in this unit. When I see my senpais I think that I still have a long way to go and when I see
Yuuka-chan I remember the time when I had only joined. A while ago I
was talking about that with Maimi and saying "We were like just like
that when we joined.".
Maeda:For me it's being able to take part in this unit as well. When I firstheard about it, I was surprised and happy at the same time. I took a photo of the "C\C (Cinderella\Complex)" lyrics card with my cell phone
and sent it to my mother.
The other 4: Cute~!
Satu hal yang g tangkep....Ambisi Reina untuk menjadi leader belum pudar
