Gummy MAMI-re! SCANDAL sneaks into the world of gummies!!

Episode #130 blog


Radio Program - 『SCANDAL Catch up supported by Meiji Apollo』 - Page 23 DIYcP00




HARUNA: So, every week we record episodes surrounded by Meiji sweets, and this time we'll be doing a special project themed after a certain sweet by Meiji. It's called... Gummy MAMI-re! (グミまみれ; gumi mamire - 'mamire' refers to being covered with something = covered in gummies)

RINA: ...what!?

HARUNA: "Gummy" and "MAMI"-re...is what it is.

MAMI: ...that's referring to me, isn't it.

HARUNA: That's right. This project features Meiji-loving MAMI! We'll get MAMI to learn more about gummies, and at the same time we and the listeners will love gummies even more... Is what this segment is about.

MAMI: Thank you very much.

HARUNA: This one is featured on MAMI, but all of us in SCANDAL love gummies. Why MAMI, you ask? It's because she's 'covered in gummies'...

MAMI: I certainly do eat them often.

HARUNA: According to the staff, they've often witnessed MAMI eating a bag of gummies as if possessed. It might not be too far off to say that it's a staple food for her. MAMI, please tell us how excited you are for today.

MAMI: I'll eat a ton of gummiesー!

RINA: She totally ignored the script.

MAMI: (*Hurriedly looking at the script) Ah, that's right...sorry. I'll make sure to read it... "It's a blessing of gummies!"

RINA: No one looks at the script, honestly.

HARUNA: There are a ton of gummies here. TOMO's eating them, too.

TOMOMI: Yeah, this one's a firm version of Cola Up. Meiji's gummies have a texture chart on them that ranks from 1-5. This one is a "5+."

RINA: That's a really firm one.

HARUNA: First up, "MAMI, what do you think is the most important thing when it comes to gummies?"

RINA: I'd love to know this.

MAMI: That would be the firmness and depth of flavor. That's why the "5+ firmness" is the best. (*Eating it right now) Yeah, it's good.

HARUNA: Besides eating them, we've prepared a quiz about gummies for you to acquire better knowledge about gummies.

MAMI: What??

【Translated Summary】
『SCANDAL Catch up supported by Meiji Apollo』 - Episode 130


Radio Program - 『SCANDAL Catch up supported by Meiji Apollo』 - Page 23 ZcquEQp
Radio Program - 『SCANDAL Catch up supported by Meiji Apollo』 - Page 23 S2CxN6Y






•The episode starts with this.

•HARU asks the first question: "What country is said to be the birthplace of gummies?" Right away MAMI goes, "I know! Germany." There's a pause before HARU confirms it's the correct answer. She goes, "Isn't that impressive? I didn't know that." TOMO says that she did think the correct answer was Germany since there are a lot of well-known gummies from there. HARU says that this question was surprisingly easy/simple.

•The second question: "The first gummy candy in Japan was made by Meiji. Released in the 1980s, which gummy was released first? Cola Up, Poifull, Kaju Gummies, or Hi Lemon Gummies." MAMI says that she's not sure about this one. She guesses Cola Up, which is the correct answer. She laughs that she got it right. HARU goes, "This question was also easy. Things like this are easy when MAMI's involved," which makes MAMI laugh.

•The third question: "Which flavor of Kaju (Fruit Juice) Gummies was actually released in the past? ①Shiikuwasa, ②Blueberry, ③Durian." Right away MAMI answers shiikuwasa, which is correct. RINA goes, "She's sure having fun" and everyone laughs. She asks MAMI if she is having fun, which MAMI says she is. HARU says that she'd be interested in a blueberry-flavored one. RINA says that it sounds delicious. MAMI says that she's seen the shiikuwasa one before. There's a pause before HARU goes, "Wait, is the quiz over with?" The staff confirms that it is. The band laughs and HARU goes, "You really underestimated MAMI!" RINA says that MAMI got all the answers right. MAMI says that all of the band members basically knew all of the right answers.

•Suddenly, TOMO goes, "Question! What prefecture are Kaju Gummies made in?" The staff laughs and the rest of the band goes, "Wait a minute!" as it seems that TOMO decided to do a quiz question on her own (she looked at the bag of the gummies she's eating). MAMI asks if they're all made in the same place. TOMO says they're not, so she clarifies that she's asking where the grape-flavored Kaju Gummies that she's currently eating are made. RINA asks if there's a hint. TOMO says it's nearby [to the Kanto region, which is the area Tokyo is located in]. MAMI says that she's torn between two places. They laugh at how she specifically says that. RINA asks why, and MAMI says that it's because there are a lot of factories in those places. RINA asks where those places are. MAMI says that there might actually be three places: Saitama, Gunma, Ibaraki. TOMO gives a hint that the lemon-flavored gummies are made in Saitama. MAMI asks if that means different flavors are made in different places, which is the case. TOMO says that the mikan, grape, and muscat flavors are made in the same place. MAMI goes, "What close-by prefecture could it be?!" She then guesses Shizuoka, which is the correct answer. MAMI says, "So it was close that way" (the prefectures she previous named were towards the east while Shizuoka is towards the west). TOMO says that maybe saying it was 'close by' wasn't the right thing to say (since it's a few prefectures away from Kanto rather than being right next to it like the others that were named). The band says that it's more exciting to do the quiz this way, by getting facts off of the packaging. MAMI seems to look through the packages of candy for another quiz question and then seemingly picks one. TOMO says that that's not a gummy one, which they laugh at.

•MAMI then asks TOMO a question: "In which ward of Tokyo is Meiji Co., Ltd. located?" Everyone laughs at this. RINA says that this is something that they all ought to know. TOMO guesses Bunkyo (*bzzt). She laughs and then asks if the correct answer is close or further away from where they're currently located (in Naka-Meguro). MAMI says that it's further away. TOMO asks if it's in the 23 wards of Tokyo (the ones located in the heart of Tokyo). MAMI says that she'll check to see which station it's closest to. TOMO says that it'd be a pain since there are stations with ward names located in a different ward, like how there are Meguro and Shinagawa wards, but there's a Meguro Station in Shinagawa ward. MAMI looks it up and says that she thinks they might be able to get it. She says it's close to Tokyo Station but that's not the actual closest one, since that one will definitely give it away. TOMO guesses Chiyoda (*bzzt). She then guesses Chuo, which is the right answer. MAMI says that the actual closest station is Kyobashi. RINA and HARU say that they wouldn't have known the right answer even if she gave that as a hint. MAMI says that TOMO did well to guess Chuo. TOMO says that it has a "Chuo" (中央 literally means 'middle,' so like 'the middle of Tokyo') image to it: it's area that's clean and has stuff like wide streets. The staff laughs in the background while, after a short pause, HARU and MAMI agree. HARU says it's like that leading up to Tokyo Station.

•Next, HARU reads a spiel about Meiji gummies and how they have a texture chart. HARU and MAMI go, "Mogi-Mogi Fruit!", which is apparently the softest gummy that Meiji has. TOMO says that she ate that the other day, and that it was softer than she had remembered it being. RINA says that she remembers bringing those on field trips often. They keep talking about the different gummies and eating them too, which I don't think really needs to be translated lol. After, HARU recaps the "Gummy MAMI-re" segment and says that the quiz was really easy. RINA says that MAMI's too good. MAMI says that it was fun. TOMO says that they learn a lot of stuff on "Catch up."

Yes, Tokyo is located in the Kanto region. I do know that, but they were talking so much about prefectures that I accidentally called it as such. Thanks for the heads up - it's been fixed.

SCANDAL celebrated its 16th anniversary! Challenging some Guinness World Records!

Episode #131 blog


Radio Program - 『SCANDAL Catch up supported by Meiji Apollo』 - Page 23 UOPHE9W




HARUNA: We in SCANDAL celebrated our 16th anniversary on August 21st, and we've continued to the point where we can break the Guinness World Record for the "Longest running all-girl band with its original members." Officially that will take another two years to break, but we've now entered our 17th year. Thank you very much.

All: Thank you very much.

HARUNA: So... The staff researched what exactly the Guinness World Records are, and if there are any other records we could try and break. This episode's theme is "Guinness World Records." It is titled... "I like Guinness"! (好きですギネス; suki de genisu - seems like it's supposed to be a quasi-palindrome)

All: (Lukewarm applause)

HARUNA: ...it's a very straightfoward title (*reading exactly what's on the script). We will be sharing various GWRs. In front of us is the 2022 Guinness World Records book... There certainly are many records in it. Until 2000 it was called the "Guinness Book of World Records," but now it's just called "Guinness World Records."

TOMOMI: Is that so?

MAMI: It's a bigger book than I expected...

HARUNA: It's big and in full color.

MAMI: Yeah, it's in full color. I thought the book was like the Michelin Guide.

HARUNA: Its history is...

When Hugh Beaver, then the managing director of the Guinness Breweries, went on a shooting party with friends, he became involved in an argument over which was the fastest game bird in Europe. No conclusion was reached, so he thought that a book that supplied answers such as that one would be popular. The first edition of the Guinness Book of Records was published in 1955.

HARUNA: The fastest game bird...

MAMI: Why was he that interested in it?

HARUNA: What bird was it actually?

TOMOMI: Wasn't it that they didn't reach a conclusion?

HARUNA: Now then, let's take a book at the GWRs. The staff recommended records for each of us...

TOMOMI: It sounds like we're in for a challenge.

MAMI: There's nothing we can do to break a GWR right now!

HARUNA: Nothing's been prepared; there are only sweets in front of us.

TOMOMI: Do we stack sweets or something?

HARUNA: There's a recommended record for TOMOMI.

TOMOMI: What is it??

HARUNA: "The most skips over a person's hair in 30 seconds."

TOMOMI: Eh, that's scary...

MAMI: Eh, whose hair??

TOMOMI: What does that mean??

~Looking at the GWRs...

MAMI: Eh, their own hair!?

TOMOMI: What??

HARUNA: It's so long!!

TOMOMI: Ehー! That's what that means??






The whole "the longest active all-girl band = 17 years" record thing is really confusing and seems to keep changing whenever SCANDAL talks about it lol. When you look on Google Japan, there's basically no info about this record other than SCANDAL saying in interviews and the like that ZELDA is the current recordholder. It is true that ZELDA was active for 17 years (1979 to 1996), but there's no page on it on the Japan GWR site, for example.

Then the particulars of the record that SCANDAL wants to break seem to always change. So in this episode, they claim they're aiming to break the "Longest running all-girl band with its original members" record and cite the number to beat is 17, which makes it seem like they're talking about ZELDA. But ZELDA had member changes as early as 1983, only four years after forming. So wtf, SCANDAL?? lol

All that really matters is they're guaranteeing us fans at least one to two more years together.  And then I hope they shoot for ZZ Top's (or at least U2's) record for original members together.

【Translated Summary】
『SCANDAL Catch up supported by Meiji Apollo』 - Episode 131


Radio Program - 『SCANDAL Catch up supported by Meiji Apollo』 - Page 23 FzV5duV
Radio Program - 『SCANDAL Catch up supported by Meiji Apollo』 - Page 23 7IchoDG






•The episode starts with this. TOMO reads what the record is about: "The most skips over a person's own hair in 30 seconds is 60 and was achieved by Laetitia Ky (Ivory Coast), in Abidjan, Ivory Coast, on March 2, 2021. For the attempt, Laetitia - an artist known for creating sculptures from her hair - braided her natural hair before adding the longer extensions and connecting the two sides together to form a 'rope.'" TOMO says that she had thought that the record entailed braiding your hair with someone else's to form a rope, rather than the person doing with their 'own' hair. She sighs and goes, "Should I aim to break it?" while a staffer laughs in the background. She wonders how many years it would take for hair to grow out to that length. HARU says that it would be impossible for TOMO to break that record right now. TOMO laughs and wonders why they recommended that record to her. She says that her hair probably won't grow out enough in, say, two years. A staffer jokes and says, "How about 30 years later?" TOMO says that she'll have to have enough stamina at 61 years old to do it. She also says that it's impressive that lady was able to achieve this record of 60 jumps in 30 seconds, jumping twice per second. MAMI jokes and says, "We'll see TOMO on TV and will be like, 'Ah, TOMO's breaking a Guinness record.'" TOMO says to look forward to that in 30 years.

•MAMI says that it seems like these records are ones that are suggested to them, not ones that they can break then and there. HARU looks at the list and says that it seems like the next one might be able to be done right away. She says that it's recommended for RINA, which is the "Longest duration spinning 30 hoops simultaneously" record. The band goes, "Wow!" RINA reads the record as it being 35 seconds and achieved in 2020 by Mariam Olayiwola of London, but actually that's incorrect as the record holder beat her own record in 2021] and brought the time up to 2 minutes, 9 seconds. RINA reads that in attempting this record, "Mariam wanted to demonstrate the strength and mental resilience required in the circus arts and particularly for all the strong women in circus arts." They say that it's impressive that the record holder did it for all women in circus arts. A staffer asks RINA if she thinks she could do that for that long. RINA says it's not likely. They and HARU ask if she'd be able to do one hula hoop. RINA says she thinks she could, but she might not have ever properly hula hooped before. HARU says that it even seems impossible to with two without them hitting each other. TOMO says with 30 hula hoops, the places on the body that each hoop would hit would be different--they wouldn't all just hit the stomach area like only one would do--so it'd be equally as hard to do it right so that they don't hit each other.

•HARU then reads the record suggested to MAMI: "The strangest diet." MAMI goes, "That's intense!" TOMO says that she thinks MAMI could compete for that. MAMI laughs, "No, I can't!" HARU wonders what the record is referring to. MAMI reads the record, which is about Michel Lotito from France eating odd things that contain metal and glass; some examples include 18 bicycles, 15 shopping carts, 7 TVs, 6 chandeliers, 2 beds, 1 pair of skis, 1 computer, 1 coffin, and 1 Cessna aircraft. MAMI goes, "Did he eat them because he found them delicious??" TOMO says that it sounds like a movie that came out recently but forgets what it's called; RINA says that it's Swallow. TOMO asks MAMI if she thinks she could do something like this as a staffer laughs in the background. MAMI laughs and says that she'd need to make sure what kind of 'ability' she'd need for that. TOMO says that it doesn't seem like MAMI would be able to do it. There's a pause before HARU laughs and says, "Of course she wouldn't!" They say it's not like MAMI could be able to break this record but sort of imitate it. MAMI talks about metal parts and then starts to say, "Ah, my guitar frets..." TOMO goes, "You ate some?" They all laugh and MAMI says that she hasn't eaten any, and that she's trying to say that her hands sweat so much that her guitar frets get melted down. TOMO says that rather than eat metal, she has the ability to melt it. MAMI laughs and goes, "I guess if I'm constantly touching it." HARU says that this record is a pretty old one since the text that MAMI read said that this happened in 1959 (not quite--the guy started eating things at 9 years of age, which was in 1959, but he ate weird stuff until 1997).

•They then seem to move on to the next one that's about body art, and it's supposedly suggested to the entire band and has to do with the most number of tattoos of the same musician, which happen to all of be of American rapper Eminem. HARU mentions that some of their own overseas fans have tattoos of them. TOMO goes, "Yeah, it's amazing!" MAMI says that some get tattoos of all four of them, and that some came out to their recent North America tour. TOMO says that both men and women that have them came out. They talk about how the record is about the same musician, and that that record would be hard to break with them since there are four of them. HARU says that the band is working hard towards their own Guinness record, and if a fan gets enough tattoos of SCANDAL then there could be two Guinness records relating to SCANDAL. MAMI goes, "What kind of proposal is this??" and she and HARU laugh. HARU says that it could totally be possible.

•For the next one, HARU reads the title and goes, "What is this??" and says that it says it's related to humans--more specifically, the largest afro, which was achieved in 2021 by Aevin Dugas in the US with the afro being 24 cm (9.45 in) tall, 25 cm (9.84 in) wide, and 157 cm (5.15 ft) in circumference. MAMI wonders how long the hair of the woman in the "skipping with a person's own hair" record would be if she made it into an afro. HARU goes, "Aevin, you're in trouble!" They look at photos of the afro and say that it looks pretty heavy.

•They then read a bunch of ones relating to records set in Japan. The first one is the longest line of onigiri (rice balls). TOMO goes, "That sounds so cute!" MAMI asks what the record is officially about. HARU says that the line measured 153.59 m (503 ft 10.84 in) and consisted of 2,527 onigiri. She then says that the line measured around her height. MAMI goes, "Wait, that was in meters!" Then HARU reads another one: The longest skewer of tsukune (chicken/meat meatballs), which measured at 20.69 m (67 ft 10 in). MAMI goes, "That's so long!" The next one is the longest baumkuchen, which measured at 20.87 m (68 ft 5 in). TOMO wonders where they made it and how they baked it. Then MAMI reads the most lights on an artificial tree and the largest Christmas snowflake ornament, both achieved at Universal Studios Japan. TOMO wonders if there are any records relating to Mt. Fuji. MAMI says that there might be regarding height. Another record mentioned is the most people performing the 'running man' dance move simultaneously at 660 people. The band says that sounds cute. TOMO says that they could surpass that number when they play at one of the Zepp venues. HARU says that records like these must mean that others are gunning to break them. Another record read is the largest soup tasting event.

•HARU mentions there's one about the most expensive animation--a Disney work--which then turns into a quiz when she asks the others what it is. TOMO guesses Frozen (*bzzt) and then Toy Story (*bzzt). MAMI asks what was it that made it cost the most; HARU answers that it was the CGI. TOMO guesses Moana (*bzzt). RINA guesses Monsters, Inc. (*bzzt). TOMO asks if it's a recent work. HARU isn't sure if she could call it recent or not. TOMO guesses Lilo and Stitch (*bzzt). She then goes, "Thought so," which makes the others laugh. TOMO asks if Frozen counts as 'recent.' HARU goes, "Recent... By the way, we're also debuting" (? not sure what she means lol). TOMO seems to understand and guesses Tangled right away, which is the correct answer. MAMI wonders if it was due to all of that hair that had to be animated. HARU thinks it might be. MAMI then goes, "So cute! So many princesses!" HARU says that that's from Wreck-It Ralph, which likely means that MAMI's looking at something that depicts this scene in Wreck-It Ralph 2 where all of the Disney princesses are gathered. They close out this segment with HARU saying that SCANDAL will continue working hard to enter the Guinness World Records.

•They then close out the episode. They say to let them know if there are any Guinness record holders among their fans. HARU says that as demonstrated in this episode, there are records for all sorts of stuff, so there may be some record holders.

Reading impressions from listeners who participated in the "Mystery Tour 2" held on August 21st!

Episode #131 blog


Radio Program - 『SCANDAL Catch up supported by Meiji Apollo』 - Page 23 UbtaBpX




HARUNA: We'll be reading "Heart Poppo" messages today as well. Getting right to it...


Shintarou

I participated in my first Mystery Tour! I was in Group 10.

In the back of my mind I honestly thought that there was a possibility you guys wouldn't show up due to the pandemic and all, but I was happy to see you guys that day.

The Mystery Tour itself made me forget about my daily life. I enjoyed it from the bottom of my heart, but running around Tsumagoi Resort all day in that hot and humid weather as soon as we arrived was quite hard for this out-of-shape 31-year-old who works from home all day (haha)

After that I ate the infamous oyakodon, and also thought about how I can't believe I'm experiencing a sports club training club-like event at my age. I felt that this was only possibly on a Mystery Tour (haha). I'm really sorry to the hotel staff for not being able to finish that large portion of oyakodon after running around.

After that, during the photo op with the band, it made me happy that RINA noticed my RINA-designed t-shirt, but I was so nervous that I couldn't say a word (haha)

By the way, during the bingo tournament I was seriously aiming to win RINA's personal item or panel, but unfortunately I couldn't get a bingo orz

Also, I was able to preorder RINA's zine while waiting for the shinkansen.

Up until now I didn't have any friends who liked SCANDAL and so went to concerts/events solo, but the other people in my group and those I've been communicating with on social media reached out to me - Now I have SCANDAL friends, which makes me so glad that I was able to participate in this event.


HARUNA: Our "Mystery Tour" concluded successfully.

~On August 21st, SCANDAL held a "Mystery Tour" event--a completely mysterious event where where no one knew where it would be held nor what what would go on until the day of.
~The venue it was held at was Tsumagoi Resort Sai no Sato in Kakegawa City, Shizuoka Prefecture.



TOMOMI: I'm really happy that everyone gets along.

HARUNA: Still not knowing where they were being taken to, as soon as everyone arrived at the venue there was a quiz--or rather, a scavenger hunt called the "SCA-venger hunt" where they all ran around.

TOMOMI: A map was handed out to randomly-assembled teams immediately after arriving. There were many spots marked across a vast plot of land. First, there was a riddle related to the place everyone was at, and the answer to the quiz could be found there... That was what the scavenger hunt was about.

HARUNA: It seemed fun, but it must have been hard because you had to come back within the time limit.

TOMOMI: It was really hard to solve the riddle to find the location of where that quiz was with a map in hand. We were shown [the answer], and it was impressive that people solved it.

HARUNA: Also, the infamous oyakodon.

MAMI: The lunch options were curry or oyakodon, and for some reason the oyakodon was super-sized.

~The Mystery Tour consisted of several things such as a team scavenger hunt, a mini surprise (prank?), a mini concert + talk session, a bingo tournament, commemorative photos. Thank you to everyone who participated.

『SCANDAL Catch up supported by Meiji Apollo』 - Episode 132


Radio Program - 『SCANDAL Catch up supported by Meiji Apollo』 - Page 23 EWg1PvZ
Radio Program - 『SCANDAL Catch up supported by Meiji Apollo』 - Page 23 B7dYy4b






•The episode starts with this.

•TOMO reads the next message from a listener who also attended the Mystery Tour. They say there's so many things that they want talk about regarding that, that they will actually be talking about a different topic instead. The band is surprised at this and laughs. The listener says that all the fans had fun doing stuff like talking about dialects, but the thing that surprised them the most is how there are different pronunciations for things. This really doesn't translate well to English + I also don't really understand it that well lol so I will not be translating the rest.

•RINA reads the next message from a listener who's writing in for the "Heart Poppo" topic. They also attended the Mystery Tour, and they say that they fell in love at first sight with the person seated directly in front of them. The band all goes, "Eh?!" The listener says that during the concert they 'raised their hand modestly,' and that due to "Catch up"'s program's director Ono telling everyone to make group chats on LINE, they were able to get that person's contact info. They finish off by saying, "Please cheer me on." TOMO says, "We're cheering you on!" MAMI explains what the listener meant exactly. She talks about the bingo tournament during the event and explains that at the end of it, Ono said to raise your hand if there's anyone you've fallen in love with at first sight that day. She says that there were about three people who did so, and that this message is apparently from one of those three. RINA goes, "[Falling in love at first sight] really did happen, then. I thought that maybe people were just going along with the hand-raising thing. This is great." The band then spins the roulette wheel to see how many pieces of Poifull the listener will get. MAMI spins it and it lands on 5 pieces.

•MAMI reads the next message from a listener who also attended the Mystery Tour. They're from Shizuoka and live pretty close to Kakegawa (the city that Tsumagoi Resort is in), so when they got the shinkansen ticket that listed the destination, they were like, "Oh, it's gotta be at Tsumagoi, huh." The band laughs hard at this. They say they have a bitter memory related to Tsumagoi: They were rejected while on the way back from seeing the illumination event there, and the Mystery Tour had been their first time being back there since the rejection happened. They thank the band for rewriting those memories with better ones. RINA says that the listener's very big-hearted. HARU brings up the thing they said about seeing that they're going to Kakegawa = the destination had to be Tsumagoi Resort. The band laughs at this again. TOMO explains that the participants met up in either Tokyo or Osaka and then headed from those locations to Kakegawa. She says how the listener must had to have gone from Kakegawa to Tokyo, then Tokyo to Kakegawa, then Kakegawa to Tokyo, and then finally Tokyo to Kakegawa. They laugh and apologize for that. HARU says she's glad their memories were rewritten with better ones.

•HARU reads the next message from a listener in Hokkaido who was really looking forward to the Mystery Tour but came down with a fever right before and had to end up canceling everything like flights and hotels. Messages from their family, friends, and coworkers worried about them being sick made their hearts go "poppo." The band says that it's unfortunate they couldn't make it but hopefully they can make it to another concert/event. TOMO says that she wants to give them 100 pieces of Poifull. They spin the roulette and it lands on 1 piece. TOMO goes, "Sorry!" while the others laugh.

•HARU reads the last message from the listener who competes in Ultimate Frisbee and reveals that in the world championships they placed 5th out of 40 teams. They thank everyone who's cheered them on, such as their teammates and even those in the opposing teams. They also say that SCANDAL's support was also a big thing for them. The band thanks and congratulates them. They're impressed that the team ranked 5th in the world. TOMO says that she'd love to see them play. HARU says that by talking about Ultimate Frisbee here, those who listen to the program will know of the sport and think of it if they happen to hear about it elsewhere, or possibly take interest in it. MAMI says that it's so awesome that a person like that listens to them. They say that they too will keep working hard.

RINA is unrivaled in a quiz about the production of Meiji's "The Chocolate" that will be updated!?

Episode #133 blog


Radio Program - 『SCANDAL Catch up supported by Meiji Apollo』 - Page 23 KQdQAy3




HARUNA: New Meiji sweets are all lined up in front of us...
We'll be introducing a Meiji sweets newcomer. This autumn, chocolate, chocolate, chocolate means Meiji...

MAMI: ♪Chocolate, chocolate, chocolate means Meiji, huh...

All: ♪Chocolate, chocolate, chocolate means Meiji!

HARUNA: They are launching new products one after another. When you mention Meiji chocolate, it has to be "The Chocolate."

MAMI: It's pretty stylish.

HARUNA: They've been totally overhauled.

TOMOMI: They're really cute.

HARUNA: Overhauled with a sense of sustainability, both the package and shape of the chocolate are inspired by each cacao production area. Releasing on September 20th.

TOMOMI: Do they have "flying get days" (*refers to getting a CD one day ahead of its official release date) for sweets?

MAMI: Also known as "furage" (フラゲ).

TOMOMI: The packaging's nice enough to give as a gift.

HARUNA: It's now box-shaped.

TOMOMI: It's so luxurious.

MAMI: The package is also easy to fold when finished, making it easy to throw away.

TOMOMI: It's also considerate that they have a production area chart for acidity and roasted taste.

HARUNA: There are four types of cacao producing areas: Brazil, Venezuela, Peru, and the Dominican Republic.

MAMI: Let's open them!

HARUNA: Which should I eat?

RINA: I opened the Peru one.

MAMI: Then I'll go for Brazil.

TOMOMI: I'll do Venezuela.

RINA: Oh, it's easier to eat.

HARUNA: Nice - they're all divided into smaller portions.

MAMI: It is niceー

TOMOMI: So luxurious.

※All members eat the chocolate...

RINA: Ah, it's so good...

MAMI: The Brazil one seems to have fruity-scented cacao.

RINA: The Peru one is a floral-scented cacao. It's really delicious and refined. Great for a break at work.

TOMOMI: Oh, this is delicious. The Venezuela one is a nutty-flavored cacao.

MAMI: It's really good! 70% is a high amount of cacao.

HARUNA: This is so good!! The Dominican Republic one is a little spicy, with just the right amount of bitterness.

RINA: It comes in packs of 12. And there are different meanings and reasons why they're shaped the way they are.

MAMI: When it comes to new products like this, when do you start thinking about things like size and flavor ratio?

RINA: I think you should always be updating them.

HARUNA: This is so delicious... You won't be able to stop eating it with these smaller pieces.

TOMOMI: Let's eat and compare them.

HARUNA: That'd be nice - we really won't be able to stop.

MAMI: But..."The Chocolate" is so rich; it has to be expensive, right?

HARUNA: ...are you curious?

MAMI: Of course I am!

HARUNA: The price you're curious about... Including tax, it costs 248 yen ($1.72 USD).

All: Ehー!!

•The episode starts with this. The band comments that 248 yen is really cheap for such good chocolate. HARU says that this is a product that was originally sold in convenience stores and such, after all.

•Next, HARU says that in order to learn more about Brazil, Venezuela, Peru, and the Dominican Republic (the countries that the cacao used in these chocolate are from), they will be doing a very "Catch up"-like thing and doing a quiz on them. HARU says the first question is about Peru. Before she can say it, TOMO goes, "Is this 'I see - The Catch up'?" HARU says yes; TOMO answers, "I see." The staff laughs, and then TOMO laughs. MAMI asks if it's about places in the world, or if it's about chocolate. HARU clarifies that they won't be reading any messages this time, and that the quiz is about chocolate. The first question: "If you were to write 'Peru' in kanji, it would be '__ 露.' What is the first kanji?" TOMO guesses "taira" (平; *bzzt). HARU says it's kind of similar. MAMI guesses "hen" (辺 I think; *bzzt). TOMO guesses "hei" (兵; *bzzt). A staffer tells them to go away from kanji that start with "he/pe." HARU guesses "nami" (波 or 並; *bzzt). The staffer then says that the kanji used will make them go "What the heck?" They laugh and TOMO says that's not a hint at all. The staffer then says it's a kanji that starts with "hi" (pronounced 'hee'). They all go, "Hi??!" HARU guesses this 'hi': 日 (*bzzt). RINA guesses the 'hi' (秘) that's in the word 'himitsu' (secret; 秘密), which is the correct answer. They all go, "Ah, that makes sense," probably because the full kanji for Peru (秘露) translates to "secret exposed."

•The next question is about Venezuela: "The origin of Venezuela's name is said to be 'Little ___' in Italian. What city is it named after?" MAMI goes, "City??" The others seem confused so HARU rereads the question. The staffer says not to overthink it. TOMO guesses Milano (*bzzt). MAMI says two other guesses that I'm not sure about, but they are incorrect. The staffer reiterates Venezuela means "Little ___." RINA guesses Venice, which is correct: It means "Little Venice" in Italian. The others go, "Oh!" and laugh. RINA says that she's guessing a lot of right answers today.

•The next question is about the Dominican Republic: "The Dominican Republic is part of the Greater Antilles in the West Indies. The capital is Santo Domingo. Now then, where is the embassy of the Dominican Republic located in the Minato Ward of Tokyo?" They laugh at the seemingly pointless setup to the question. MAMI goes, "What?? Hold on a sec..." TOMO wonders if she's seen it before. RINA says that she has seen it before. The incorrect answers that the band guesses are: Roppongi, Mita, Aoyama, Azabu-Juban, Akasaka. TOMO then guesses Nishi-Azabu (西麻布), which is correct. The staffer points out how the question said the Dominican Republic is in the West (nishi; 西) Indies. The band laughs at this and jokes that that wasn't really a hint.

•The last question is about Brazil: "Brazil is famous for its modern architecture. Oscar Niemeyer is a well-known name in Brazilian architecture. There is a female architect whose modernist architecture is as famous as his. Her name is '__ Bo Bardi.' What is her first name?" Before HARU finishes reading the question, TOMO goes, "That's too difficult!" The staffer says it consists of two [Japanese] letters and is definitely something they could guess. TOMO and HARU correctly guess "リナ." The correct name is Lina, but those letters can, of course, be read as "RINA." They laugh and RINA goes, "Really??" The staffer says the architect was really famous. They seem to learn more about Lina and say that she was really cool.

Probably a difference in translation, but Wikipedia has the architect's name as Lina Bo Bardi. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lina_Bo_Bardi

In Japanese, the letter L doesn't exist; the closest equivalent is R, which is pronounced more like a blend between L and R. That's why "Lina" is spelled as リナ, which would be pronounced in Japanese as "Rina." The staff just wanted to make that joke that both RINA and Lina technically have the same name in Japanese.

Nice find Team SCANDAL. Oscar Niemeyer and Lina Bo Bardi are legends of the brazilian architecture.

Hopefully they'll come to Brazil someday, to see the architecture, taste the chocolate and get to know Liberdade district, as we have the largest Japanese population outside of Japan.

I would have thought USA had largest Japanese population outside of Japan. Are there any reasons why so many live in Brazil apart from the great weather.  Scandal and other bands could be missing a trick on going there.

Erm, the main reason why there are so many Japanese in Brazil is because Japan wanted to alleviate poverty and overpopulation in Okinawa, and thus encouraged people to move to Brazil after establishing a treaty with them due to Brazil needing more laborers...😅

Yes I was surprised to hear that Brazil has over one and a half million Japanese people, more than any other country outside Japan !


Oh and my wife is Indian but her ancestors were taken from India to Guyana in South America by the British as they needed more workers there and Guyana also has loads of Chinese people.

I am surprised myself, that they moved to Bazil in early 1900s. I thought it may be in 70s and onwards, Bazil trying to increase their skilled worker's pool.  Good wages, lovely sandy beaches and Pele.

That was after the abolition of slavery.

The Japanese are just one of the groups of immigrants. First the Portuguese and the Africans. Then the Italians, Spaniards, Germans and Japanese, followed by the Dutch, Lebanese and many others. That's why Brazil is so diverse.

I have a friend whose family is from Okinawa.

Episode #134 blog


Radio Program - 『SCANDAL Catch up supported by Meiji Apollo』 - Page 23 26kyhrW




HARUNA: We'll be reading many messages this week. We'll start from this one.


Super Gunma

Good evening, SCANDAL.

On the subject of "Heart Poppo," I think MAMI had said previously that there is a pigeon that goes "Too-too, too-too." Have you clarified the matter?

The pigeon that goes "Too-too, too-too" is the turtle dove, and the pigeon that goes "Hoo-hoo, hoo-hoo" is a domestic pigeon. They're actually different species. The turtle dove lives in the countryside while the rock pigeon lives in Ueno Park. Turtle doves are more brownish and slender than normal pigeons, so please try observing them the next time you hear them.



TOMOMI: A "hato" (pigeon) message really was sent in.

HARUNA: They said there are two types of pigeon...

MAMI: "Too-too, too-too"

HARUNA: That one!

TOMOMI: Isn't it "Hoo-hoo, hoo-hoo"?

HARUNA: ...what? There are different interpretations here.

MAMI: But that's only in the countryside. You don't hear that in Tokyo.

TOMOMI: You do!

HARUNA: You hear it sometimes!

TOMOMI: "Hoo-hoo, hoo-hoo"

MAMI: It's that rhythmic??

TOMOMI: They definitely do this rhythm.

MAMI: "Too-too, too-too"

HARUNA: It's the same! Those are definitely the same. Both are turtle doves.

MAMI: But they can only be heard in that person's hometownー

RINA: Maybe it's quiet where they are?

MAMI: I see. Maybe they don't notice it when they're in Tokyo.

HARUNA: It seems that the turtle dove is in the countryside, and the rock pigeon is in Ueno Park.

MAMI: Why is it limited to Ueno Park?

HARUNA: Don't know. I guess it means that hearing "Coo, coo, coo" is more common.

MAMI: Have you ever heard "Coo, coo, coo" in real life?

(*TOMOMI mimics the "Coo, coo, coo" sound really well, and it sounds very realistic!)

RINA: Wow, that was good!! That was so good that it was kind of scary!

【Translated Summary】
『SCANDAL Catch up supported by Meiji Apollo』 - Episode 134


Radio Program - 『SCANDAL Catch up supported by Meiji Apollo』 - Page 23 POBOKFa
Radio Program - 『SCANDAL Catch up supported by Meiji Apollo』 - Page 23 2A446bb






•The episode starts with this. Since this was a "Heart Poppo" message, they spin the roulette wheel to see how many pieces of Poifull the listener will be given. It lands on 20 pieces. TOMO wonders if that's the biggest number they've landed on so far.

•TOMO reads the next message from a listener who says that their "Heart Poppo" story is that they've been pooped on four times by birds, with one of the times being that it landed on top of their head. The times have been when they were walking around, waiting for the train, taking photos in Malaysia. TOMO begins to read the last time by starting with, "Also, there was one time when I was walking, and my mouth (くち; kuchi)..." TOMO then pauses and starts to laugh while the other members go, "What??" TOMO corrects herself and says it was actually "shoes" (くつ; kutsu). The staff laughs and HARU laughs and says, "Stop that!" The listener does say that the poop landed on their shoes, and that people tell them that it's a sign of good luck.

•The band says that it's crazy this has happened to the listener four times. They then say that that has happened to all of them once before. TOMO says that their own luck must be good as well. RINA asks them when it happened for them. MAMI says it was when she was heading to high school on a bike. HARU says that hers also happened when going to (middle) school, most likely when she was heading to a hang out at a friend's place. TOMO says that it also happened for her in middle school; after school, everyone would meet up at a spot and sit there. While sitting there, a bird pooped on her leg and she laughed really hard at it. The others laugh (HARU: "All you can do is laugh in that situation"). RINA says it's better to laugh in that situation. TOMO says that the poop was really warm. HARU asks if it was on her bare leg, which TOMO does confirm. RINA says that it happened for her in elementary school during a sports day. She was bored due to waiting for it to start. It looked like it was about to rain and held her hand out to the sky. In that moment, she caught the poop in her hand. She says that she wasn't the type to call attention to herself, so she wiped it on the bottom of her shoe. The others laugh and TOMO goes, "Why would you wipe it on your shoe??" RINA says that the bottom of your shoe is top thing you can 'sacrifice.' She then says that she went and joined the events right after that, which makes the others laugh. RINA says it was really embarrassing. HARU says that her luck was really good to have caught the poop in her hand. TOMO says that all four of them must have good luck thanks to these birds. RINA says thanks and that she's grateful.

•MAMI mentions how it's possible to get pooped on by a bird as you're driving at a high speed, and that when she had gone to Okinawa it was pretty crazy. When she wondered why that was happening and looked it up, it said that birds tend to think that shiny things are things like the ocean and think they're about to dive into it. She thinks that it probably was the same for their bicycle experiences. TOMO goes, "Ah, since they sparkle. My legs must have been shining, too." They laugh, and MAMI says it must have been the same for RINA's hand. RINA goes, "I guess that's what they thought of me," which makes HARU laugh really hard. They then spin the roulette for Poifull. HARU says that TOMO will be spinning it, despite her almost always landing on 1 piece. MAMI reminds TOMO that this message was about pigeons. There's a pause before TOMO goes, "What?", and RINA and MAMI whisper, "Do the bird call!" TOMO does it and the others laugh while she says, "Wait, that was the wrong one!" She then says that she landed on 15 pieces of Poifull.

•RINA reads the next message from a listener who says that their "Heart Poppo" story is more about a time when their heart skipped a beat. Their previous message was read during episode 117 (the last one about the crush on a same-sex friend). The other day, they hung out with that friend in Tokyo and did stuff like go shopping and sightsee. In the evening they met up with the friend's boyfriend for karaoke, which made the listener feel conflicted. They drifted into talking about the listener and were constantly asked if they've found someone good. They dodged the question by saying they haven't. It was then that the friend was like, "Oh yeah, don't you like me?", which surprised the listener. The listener never really planned to tell the friend, but since they felt like their friendship wasn't going to end by telling her that, the listener does admit that they like her. She had been aware of the feelings that the listener had only come to realize recently, which surprised the listener. The listener is also grateful that they'll continue to be friends. The listener also thanks SCANDAL for the kind words they said to them in the past. HARU says it was good to hear what the friend thought. RINA says that just by realizing what the listener was feeling, it sounds like it made the listener happy. They say that they probably each think of each other as being special friends to each other. They also say that they're glad the listener and the friend became friends. They spin the roulette next. They say that they hope it's at least two pieces. It lands on 10 pieces, which RINA says is an easily splittable number. HARU says that higher numbers are actually being landed on this time. They wonder if the "1 piece" slots have been removed, but they are still there. HARU says that's awesome and that they're lucky today. MAMI says that she hopes they do land on the "100 piece" slot.

•MAMI reads the next message from a listener who says that when they had surgery recently, they asked them to play SCANDAL as background music. One of the nurses knew about SCANDAL and said that they had seen them at a festival before. They say that they were able to relax thanks to SCANDAL's music, and that the surgery went well. They talked about more things they had in common, and it made their heart go "poppo poppo." The band is glad that the surgery went well, and they're also surprised at how they'll play songs for you during the operation. RINA says that apparently you can do so as well when you're giving birth. They say that a song with a fast tempo like "Tonight" might be too fast to give birth to lol (RINA: "Maybe a slower song"). MAMI spins the roulette and lands on 10 pieces too. She goes, "The '100 piece' slot was right next to that!" They all go, "That was so close!"

•HARU reads the next message from a listener who says that their "Heart Poppo" story is from when they were in high school. They had a friend group that consisted of six people (mixed girls and boys), and they had lots of fun doing typical young people things like going to the pool by bike, lighting fireworks, etc. One boy told the listener that they liked them, but the listener was having too much fun with the whole group that they kind of brushed it aside. They say that the boy would say that they'd like them when the group was all hanging out, so they thought the boy was just going with the flow. During one of those times the group was hanging out as usual, one friend said to them, "Even though ___ likes you so much, you're not going out?" The listener was surprised and asked the boy if they liked them. The boy said in a loud voice, "If this isn't love, then what is it?" (TOMO: "That's cute!"). The listener says that this is now a nice memory, though it also stings. TOMO again says that that was cute. RINA says that the listener didn't think the boy was serious. HARU laughs and says, "Well, things like this do happen." She also says that you do start to take notice of things once someone else points it out to you, and wonders what happened after that story ended. TOMO says that the listener said it "stings," so things probably still stayed the same. RINA says that that was probably fine, and it's enjoyable in and of itself when someone likes you. HARU spins the roulette and it lands on 25 pieces, which is the highest number they've landed on so far. They say that things are going pretty well today and have given out about 80 pieces. HARU says that it feels like they'll be able to give out a total of 100 pieces today.

•TOMO reads the next message from a listener who recently looked up places in real-life that are related to SCANDAL (locations where they shot music videos, etc.) and found the two locations where they shot the "Saishuuheiki, Kimi" music video, with one being in Iwaki City, Fukushima Prefecture. They're from that region and told some friends about it, and there was one friend who didn't know about SCANDAL and learned of them for the first time. They say that it's fun to write in to "Catch up" about recent happenings like this one. RINA says that they did shoot that video in two locations: the one the listener mentioned, plus another in Chiba Prefecture (Daikeien, an amusement park). TOMO says that she was the only one who shot in only Iwaki since some troubles popped up. HARU says that they had originally planned to only shoot in Iwaki, but at the last minute a second location was decided on. TOMO says that she was the only member who had that day off. HARU says that going to Daikeien was really fun, though. MAMI says that she had been there once before with a friend. HARU says that since the video starts off with RINA at Daikeien, it was actually good that they had decided to add that second location in. They talk about how there are real-life locations related to SCANDAL all throughout Japan, with the most popular being places in Osaka: the dance + vocal training school they attended, shops they used to go to, etc.

The bond between the four of them in their 17th year together will be tested! "Smental" will unite their hearts as one!

Episode #135 blog


Radio Program - 『SCANDAL Catch up supported by Meiji Apollo』 - Page 23 Hx2I7xi




HARUNA: Now then, for this episode...we're doing a special project! It's called "Smental" (it's spelled as スメンタル in Japanese, which is close to the Japanese spelling of "SCANDAL" スキャンダル).

TOMOMI: "S"...what?

MAMI: ..."Smental"?

HARUNA: After celebrating our 16th anniversary, this project is one that will once again unite the four of us during our 17th year together via an association game! We'll read each other's feelings and thoughts so that we'll all give the same answer to a question - That is "Smental."

MAMI: "SCANDAL/Sukyandaru" (スキャンダル), "Smental/Sumentaru" (スメンタル)...that's what it is.

RINA: "Smental"; ah, so that's what it is.

HARUNA: It is. This being an association game, the goal is to get all of us to answer the same thing. If we don't match up in the first round, we'll reflect and do a second round.

TOMOMI: A second round?

MAMI: Meaning that we'll keep doing it until we all give the same answer to a question.

HARUNA: We will.

RINA: I feel like we can do it.

HARUNA: It's ideal if we all match up in the first round!

MAMI: Yeah, let's try it!

HARUNA: ...but it seems that the topics are difficult ones.

TOMOMI: Why?

MAMI: What do you mean?

HARUNA: At any rate, let's get to it! First question!
When going on a picnic, what is the rice ball filling that all of us can enjoy?

HARUNA: One that all of us can enjoy!? That means the four of us, right??

TOMOMI: You mean the one that we all like, right??

RINA: Wait, hold on a sec...

TOMOMI: I think it's this one...

HARUNA: Hm, I don't know. I don't know, but maybe it's this one...

MAMI: I'll go with this one. Eh, wait...

RINA: We're talking about classic fillings, right?

MAMI: For us, you mean?

HARUNA: The four of us, you mean?

(*Staff: "Write your answer down on the other side and then reveal them all at once!")

All: Ehー!! No wayー!! We were so closeー!!

HARUNA: It's split between "salmon" and "tuna mayo"!

RINA: RINA and HARU went with salmon.

HARUNA: TOMO and MAMI went with tuna mayo.

TOMOMI: We all went with seafood... Wouldn't that be correct?

(*Staff: "It is not.")

MAMI: Salmon was of course another option... So, are we going to do another round?

TOMOMI: We're doing it again??

(*Staff: "Next, let's all provide the same answer. After seeing everyone's answers, read each other and try to be in unison next time. That is 'Smental.'")

RINA: Meaning that we should write something other than salmon or tuna mayo?

MAMI: No, it's okay to write those.

HARUNA: The second round is the hardest!

(*Staff: "You cannot discuss it among yourselves. Please try to read each other.")

RINA: We all like both of those, but if we were to take them on a picnic, I thought my answer would be this one...

HARUNA: I was drawn to the 'picnic' aspect of it, too.

MAMI: Considering the situation, that's true... There could be days when you'd go on a picnic under the blazing sun, so it might be dangerous to carry that around all that time... So the filling needs to be one that'll be okay and won't go bad.

HARUNA: It's not that we'd be buying them at a convenience store, but would make it ourselves and take them with us.

TOMOMI: Like when you use those jar ones sold at markets because you don't want to spend time making it.

HARUNA: Ones you can do in the mornings.

(*Staff: "Show your answers all at once!")

HARUNA: One, two...

All: "Salmon"ー!!

RINA: I'm relievedー

•The episode starts with this. HARU says that it was pretty impressive that their choices were split evenly in two at first.

•The next question is: Which hiragana character do you want to physically hold in your hand? Before HARU finishes reading the question, TOMO goes, "Ahh, that's a good one!" The staff and MAMI laugh at this. RINA also says that is a lovely question. MAMI says that she's really unsure of which to go with, which the others agree with. A staffer reminds them that if their answers are not in unison, they'll have to do a second round. HARU says that's okay, and that they'll try to adjust their answers in the second round. They then reveal their answers all at once. There's a pause before they all start laughing hard and RINA goes, "They're all different!" and then says that she can see the reasons why they all chose the ones they did, and that the reasons are probably all similar. MAMI says she chose て (te) because she'd like to grab it by the curve and swing it around. The staff laughs hard at what she says about "wanting to swing it around." HARU says she chose ひ (hi) because she could hold it by the 'handles' at either side and walk around with it since it looks like bag. RINA says that the tricky-looking characters do kind of look like a bag that a high-fashion brand might come out with. TOMO says she chose  く (ku) because it looks like it'd return to her if she threw it. The others laugh and say that that's like a boomerang. She says it could probably be used as a weapon as well. RINA says that she chose も (mo) because she'd like to grasp it in her hand, and thinks that it'd feel soft. She also says that this is the character that best resembles toys that are squishy and feel nice to squeeze. She observes that the way they perceived this question all differed.

•A staffer seems to remind them that they'll need to do a second round. TOMO goes, "So, for example..." and makes everyone laugh since they're not supposed to outright discuss being in unison for the second round. She then says that if you think about it as trying to choose a character you'd bring with you to a deserted island, you'd want to bring one with you that can help you do stuff such as get food from a tall tree (referring to the く character she chose). RINA goes, "TOMO's very practical." MAMI says that in that case, the character て that she chose can help you cut down plants and such with its curve (like a scythe), and it could also be used as a telescope if you climb the island's highest point. TOMO says she gets it, but then goes, "Putting it that way..." and starts to defend く again, saying that it could be used as a scythe as well. She then says, "What can you do with ひ?? Appeal your case for it!" RINA goes, "It's for fashion, isn't it?" HARU says that you could dig with it. TOMO goes, "You can't dig with that!" HARU says that you can (she's likely trying to say that the bottom part of it looks like a shovel blade). MAMI says that it's too thin to dig with. TOMO then goes, "The only thing you can do with it is jump rope!" MAMI says that you could put it around your neck. RINA again says that it's more a luxury item.

•RINA thinks that they need to think in more everyday terms in order to all answer the same way. TOMO says that a character you "want to hold in your hand" can go in a lot of different ways (probably since the verb used, 持つ; motsu, does have a lot of definitions). MAMI says in this case it just means a character that you want to physically hold in your hand. RINA says that maybe they should think of it in terms of helpfulness. They say that it's pretty difficult to think of how to all match their answers. RINA says that TOMO's and MAMI's choices are ones that would be more helpful in survival situations rather than everyday ones. TOMO goes, "You can use mine in everyday life!" She also brings up that the character へ might be a good contender. The others agree and say that it seems like it'd be easy to hold. TOMO says that she doesn't know if it would return [after throwing it], though, which makes the staff laugh. RINA says that it would be good to use on a tall tree. They then talk about how a character that consists of one 'piece' would be easier to hold, as opposed to one that has several 'pieces' such as た (ta).

•They decide to go for it and say to just write whatever comes to mind. They reveal their answers and burst out laughing, having failed to again all write the same answer + all wrote different answers again. RINA says that they're getting closer than before, though. MAMI wrote ん (n), RINA wrote の (no), HARU wrote つ (tsu), TOMO wrote し (shi). RINA says that they're basically all kind of matching. HARU and TOMO agree that つ and し are basically the same character written at different angles. HARU says that they thought in the same way. RINA says that she and MAMI probably thought the same as well, which makes MAMI and the staff laugh. MAMI says that she thought they'd be able to all match this round. TOMO says that she'd want to try sitting on ん. The others agree that it does look like you could recline on it. RINA says that ん is a really stylish character and jokes that it's something that Japanese designer Yohji Yamamoto (one that SCANDAL has collab'd with many times before) would come out with. They say that they'll try one more round.

•TOMO mentions how for her iPhone keyboard there are symbols that represent what kind of keyboard you could switch to (specifically: hiragana, katakana, English keyboards - and to switch to the hiragana keyboard, it's usually designated with the character あ [a]). HARU says that that doesn't really relate to what the question is about. RINA asks TOMO if that is a character that she'd want to hold in her hand. She says yes. They want to try and get their answers to match up with this 'character that represents hiragana.' They each write their answers down and reveal them. There's a slight pause before they all go, "Ahh!" and reveal that they all wrote the same answer: あ (a). RINA says that they kind of cheated a bit. HARU says that they did not exactly follow the prompt, though. TOMO asks if they would want to hold this character in their hand, which they do say they want to.

•The next question: What is a delicious-looking color? TOMO says that she thinks there's probably only one answer for this. HARU goes, "What??" RINA then wonders if it would be a color of a specific food. They decide that it's not, and is referring to just the color. TOMO says that they definitely won't match up. RINA says that they should just try it once and see. They try discussing it a bit before HARU says they should just write down the first thing that comes to mind. RINA says that she thinks they'll match up in the second round. They reveal their answers and again fail at all writing the same answer. MAMI chose red, HARU chose yellow, RINA chose orange, and TOMO chose white. TOMO goes, "Let's all match up!" which makes MAMI and the staff laugh. MAMI says that this is the only color that comes to mind for her, though. RINA says that she understands why everyone chose the colors that they did.

•They do the second round and do all write the same answer: brown. RINA says that karaage (fried chicken) is that color, after all. TOMO says that curry is as well. HARU agrees that brown foods are delicious. A staffer asks them why they chose the colors they did in the first round. MAMI says that when she pictures red foods, she imagines them being red fruits/vegetables like strawberries and tomatoes--it gives her a 'fresh' image. RINA says that her reasoning was also the same, and that she pictures orange as being fresh too as well as juicy. TOMO says that white also gives her a 'fresh' feel as well. HARU says that she chose yellow because of foods like purin (pudding) and sponge cake--she pictured sweets. RINA wonders if they had decided to avoid writing the color brown down in the beginning. HARU says that she thinks everyone must have all thought of the color brown at first. TOMO disagrees and says how this is a game where they're all supposed to eventually match up, which makes them laugh. They say this game was fun and that they'd like to do it again.
