"RINA, I like your ways of thinking and mindset.
-
Is there anything that helped you form those?"
-
I wonder.
-
Like...
-
I personally think of myself as being very unique,
-
Like...
-
A very unique...
-
How can I put it?
-
I'm aware that I live a very unique life.
-
The band started when I was in middle school.
-
Until I grew up,
-
the band was the center of my life.
-
When you're writing songs,
-
standing on stage,
-
you think about
-
what you want to convey, right?
-
It's only natural.
-
This job requires you to always keep thinking those things, right?
-
I think so.
-
I've been in a band since I was in middle school,
-
which is something I'm in a minority for.
-
How you live your life,
-
or what your family situation is like...
-
For example, there are times when
-
you're not able to like something in the same way as others.
-
You're like, "Ah, I like something that's different from others."
-
Yeah, like...
-
If I had a normal kind of life,
-
I would often be in the minority for many things.
-
That's why I want to understand the feelings of those in the minority
-
in different aspects.
-
I feel like I've been unconsciously conscious of the fact
-
that many ordinary things have different kinds of patterns to them.
-
That may be why, when making songs,
-
I have a desire to make or send forth things
-
without forgetting that there are all kinds of different people.
-
I really do think that.
-
That's why I really want to affirm all kinds of people
-
and make these songs while going about my daily life.
-
I think all of the band members feel the same.
-
I don't know in detail what the person who asked this feels about me.
-
But basically,
-
[my mindset] may be based on me wanting to affirm all kinds of things.
-
"You might not like being asked this,
-
but until what age do you want to be the drummer of SCANDAL?"
-
I haven't decided at all.
-
I don't think I decide on anything based on age.
-
I really don't know what I want to be by some age.
-
I'm not conscious of it.
-
But I always think that the band can get better and better,
-
and that the four of us can do something newer and more interesting.
-
That's why I've always thought that who we are in the present moment is always the best version of us.
-
We'll be even better versions of ourselves in the future, more than we are in the present time.
-
I want to experience it
-
and see it for myself.
-
That's why all of us want to keep playing music together for as long as possible.
-
So, I want to keep going as far as we can go.
-
Thank you so much to everyone who watched until the end!
-
See you in my next video!
