Our good friend Naoki (nokmr) was kind enough to send me these scans so that we can translate them into English for non-Japanese people to read and understand. * Hiddy (Picture - Second from the left/ Below…h) Before I become 20, even if it is just once, I want to try conquer one thing I am bad at! ----- A few days ago you went bowling with the band and got last place right? * H – I was last place by a large margin (Bitter smile). I didn’t even get a score of 50… ----- Alright then let’s start right away! *Referencing photo 1 * H - I’ll do my best!! ~ The results of training with nohana, the best at bowling among the band, are!? ~ * H – I got my first spare!!! *Referencing photo 2 ----- You did it! You conquered something you were bad at a bit but, are there any other things you want to conquer? * H – There is nothing else I want to conquer per se, from the start of Draft King it was my first time being main guitar so my technique and performance are still immature. I want to polish them. At the one man in August obviously we will play more songs than usual so I am excited about it but there are still plenty of things I can’t do. ----- Then do you have any aspirations for when you are 20 years old? * H – My closest objective is to make the one man a success but as my big objective I want to become an artist whose guitar and vocals have charm. Right now playing the guitar is really fun and I want to challenge more phrases, I also want to try composing a song, I want to become good at singing choruses, there are a lot of things but (Lol), just want to become a good artist, that desire is boiling up inside of me repeatedly! Ah, I also want to become a girl that is good at cooking(Lol). ----- That’s important isn’t it?!! (Lol) * Mao (Picture – Second from the right/Below …m) I want to try out various guitars! To that end I came to the Mecca of instrument stores, I came to Ochanomizu! ----- This is the most serious theme up until now (Lol) * M – It’s because I’m a serious person! (Lol) This guitar is cool!! I want to try it out right away! *Referencing photo 1 ----- That guitar is a bit different than mao-chan’s image up until now. * M – It’s because I like this color. Since nohana’s bass is so showy, I don’t want to lose to her and counter her with a golden guitar. ------ How is it? (trying the guitar) * M – I really want to play with it! But for now I have to bear with it... Heading towards the July live at Otodama SEA STUDIO I want an acoustic guitar too. I’ll try out this acoustic guitar! *Referencing photo 2 ----- It looks like a color that will go well with the ocean too. * M – I want this one too! But since we don’t have enough time next time I will come by myself and try it out (Lol) ----- Incidentally what was your reason for starting to play guitar? * M – When I was in middle school I tried touching a guitar at a music shop. From there I got into it more and ended up where I am now. ----- You are Draft King’s main song composer but, heading towards the one man in August, are you continuing to make songs? * M – I’m making quite a few of them! I think that because I understand the vocals’ atmosphere and singing range, recently my song making has widened. A lot of them will be introduced at the one man so I am really excited. ----- We are anticipating those new songs as well!
MAO is the main song composer! Gah why didn't I think about this before!? She's the only one who went to a music academy! Anyways, thanks for the translation dude!
