Although lockdowns will continue, is there anything you want to do this summer?" 00:03:04.696 --> 00:03:08.791 I do have a few things I'm considering. 00:03:08.791 --> 00:03:11.693 I think I'll be able to announce something soon, 00:03:12.053 --> 00:03:13.971 and at that time I'll talk more in detail about it. 00:03:13.971 --> 00:03:17.585 "Q.

Do you use colored contacts?" 00:04:29.141 --> 00:04:31.285 I don't. My eyes are bare. 00:04:31.943 --> 00:04:35.840 "Q. Is being in love a serious or trivial thing?" 00:04:37.157 --> 00:04:40.532 Do you mean being dependent? 00:04:40.532 --> 00:04:43.227 I don't think so at all. 00:04:43.227 --> 00:04:46.684 I'm the type that doesn't think so at all. 00:04:46.684 --> 00:04:48.757 Like... 00:04:48.757 --> 00:04:52.612 That's fundamentally the basis of our band. 00:04:52.829 --> 00:04:57.065 We don't know what'll happen in the future, 00:04:57.065 --> 00:04:58.953 but the basis of the band... 00:04:58.953 --> 00:05:04.420 is to each have fun, and at the same time, 00:05:04.420 --> 00:05:08.027 if we have someone we love, 00:05:08.027 --> 00:05:10.350 that adds even more fun to things. 00:05:10.350 --> 00:05:13.583 I like that view on love. 00:05:14.463 --> 00:05:20.255 "Q. I'm now in college but don't really know how to get closer to others. 00:05:20.401 --> 00:05:25.386 Sometimes I suddenly want to be alone, even when I'm with friends. 00:05:25.500 --> 00:05:28.070 RINA, what would you do during those times?" 00:05:30.798 --> 00:05:34.564 When I was a student, there were definitely times when I was alone. 00:05:34.564 --> 00:05:35.822 I was that type of person. 00:05:35.822 --> 00:05:40.199 I could totally have fun if I was invited out, 00:05:40.964 --> 00:05:43.615 but there were times when I preferred being alone, 00:05:43.615 --> 00:05:47.265 and also times when I'd naturally end up on my own. 00:05:47.265 --> 00:05:51.315 Maybe I didn't really mind it. 00:05:52.858 --> 00:05:57.908 In my second year of high school, I transferred from an all-girls' school in Osaka to a high school in Tokyo. 00:05:58.141 --> 00:06:01.910 I attended those schools for half of that year each. 00:06:01.919 --> 00:06:12.569 You often hear about how high school friends stay close even after growing up, 00:06:12.569 --> 00:06:14.538 but that didn't really happen for me. 00:06:14.538 --> 00:06:19.475 Like, I didn't have many friends...is what I thought. 00:06:19.597 --> 00:06:21.477 Like... 00:06:21.719 --> 00:06:23.638 It kind of worried me. 00:06:23.644 --> 00:06:27.841 Like, I didn't have anyone I could talk about anything with. 00:06:28.210 --> 00:06:29.901 That's what I thought, 00:06:29.901 --> 00:06:33.420 but when I was going to school in Osaka... 00:06:33.420 --> 00:06:38.369 There's an artist named Yayoi Daimon who's currently debuting in the hip-hop scene, 00:06:38.386 --> 00:06:41.031 and she was in the same class as me. 00:06:41.031 --> 00:06:43.113 As of very recently, 00:06:43.113 --> 00:06:45.745 we've started hanging out in our free time. 00:06:46.257 --> 00:06:54.635 Reuniting with someone after you've both grown up is a great thing. 00:06:54.635 --> 00:06:55.565 So... 00:06:55.565 --> 00:06:57.973 When you want to be alone, 00:06:57.973 --> 00:06:59.891 I think it's totally fine to be alone. 00:06:59.891 --> 00:07:02.727 "Q. Ways to raise your self-esteem?" 00:07:03.393 --> 00:07:08.804 If you compare yourself to others and find there's something you lack or are less good at, 00:07:08.804 --> 00:07:11.247 it makes you feel bad, right? 00:07:11.247 --> 00:07:15.421 But's it not about what you can't do-- 00:07:15.421 --> 00:07:18.709 it's about what you can do. 00:07:18.709 --> 00:07:22.580 "Q. Is it important to live your life looking ahead three years?" 00:07:22.824 --> 00:07:26.215 It's tiring to constantly just think about the future, 00:07:26.215 --> 00:07:29.142 and it sucks. 00:07:29.142 --> 00:07:31.304 Hmm, yeah... 00:07:31.304 --> 00:07:35.333 When I'm writing songs, 00:07:35.675 --> 00:07:38.808 for some reason... 00:07:39.506 --> 00:07:43.734 I start thinking about whether we can keep doing this in three or five more years. 00:07:43.734 --> 00:07:46.231 We've recently started to write our own songs, 00:07:46.231 --> 00:07:52.715 and since the four of us want to be in this band for as long as we can, 00:07:52.715 --> 00:08:01.567 we want to start making songs with all kinds of tempos, all kinds of melodies, music with all kinds of feelings. 00:08:02.439 --> 00:08:06.900 So, there are parts of me that also think ahead, 00:08:06.900 --> 00:08:10.114 and parts that can only think of right now. 00:08:11.159 --> 00:08:14.706 I think it's also really important to enjoy the present. 00:08:15.034 --> 00:08:22.587 "Q. When starting something, and when you have to keep that going, do you feel uneasy?" 00:08:24.462 --> 00:08:29.511 When you start new things as an adult, 00:08:29.691 --> 00:08:33.426 you're more level-headed than when you're a kid, 00:08:33.426 --> 00:08:38.654 so you do feel uneasy and maybe aren't sure if you can keep doing it. 00:08:38.654 --> 00:08:43.001 But as for me, I'm the type that goes for it. 00:08:45.295 --> 00:08:52.854 I think it'd be good each time to think about how to continue something 00:08:52.854 --> 00:08:57.575 while changing the shape of it so as not to make things tough for you at that time. 00:08:58.330 --> 00:09:00.538 I haven't drank this at all. 00:09:04.693 --> 00:09:10.402 For some reason there were a lot of love-related comments this time. 00:09:10.402 --> 00:09:13.774 I think I'll narrow down topics next time. 00:09:14.694 --> 00:09:16.605 It sounds interesting. 00:09:17.447 --> 00:09:20.497 All right, that's all for today. 00:09:20.497 --> 00:09:22.871 I talked about a lot of things. 00:09:22.890 --> 00:09:28.673 It was fun to record a video of me chatting for the first time in forever. 00:09:28.994 --> 00:09:32.107 Thanks so much for watching until the end! 00:09:32.107 --> 00:09:35.218 Also, thanks so much for always leaving comments! 00:09:35.218 --> 00:09:42.727 Subscribe to my channel and wait for my next video! 00:09:43.149 --> 00:09:45.024 Also... 00:09:45.024 --> 00:09:48.609 We recently came out with a new song called "Ivory." 00:09:48.758 --> 00:09:52.828 It's a song that really fits who we are right now, 00:09:52.828 --> 00:09:57.869 and one that we can perform naturally. 00:09:58.311 --> 00:10:00.958 So please give it a listen if you'd like! 00:10:00.958 --> 00:10:02.432 This time, 00:10:03.504 --> 00:10:08.445 our guitarist MAMI is on lead vocals for a single for the time. 00:10:08.445 --> 00:10:12.883 There's also a music video for it on our band's official YouTube channel, 00:10:12.883 --> 00:10:18.251 so I hope you listen to it in whichever way you'd like! 00:10:18.251 --> 00:10:20.890 Thank you! 00:10:20.890 --> 00:10:24.398 That's all for today. 00:10:24.398 --> 00:10:26.467 Ah, like... 00:10:26.467 --> 00:10:29.721 I apologize for always going a long time without posting new videos. 00:10:29.721 --> 00:10:34.114 I'll film some here and there again. 00:10:34.114 --> 00:10:38.209 Thanks so much for watching until the end! 00:10:38.209 --> 00:10:40.474 See you in my next video! 00:10:40.474 --> 00:10:42.376 Bye bye!
