-
Happy new year, everyone!
-
Finally!
-
[We're finally in 2025!]
-
We're now in 2025.
[Yamada is already glowing]
-
How do you guys feel?
-
This year went by so fast.
-
It did.
-
Doesn't it feel like we went to Karuizawa
just the other day?
-
That's true.
-
It's been that long?
-
It's been a whole year.
-
I hate that.
-
It's so fast.
-
This year went by particularly quickly.
-
That means you've been
working hard, right?
-
I mean, Fuma.
-
I think that all of us have been busy.
-
We have.
-
I did work a bit here and there.
-
You've always been way too busy.
-
Yeah.
-
So it's not just "a bit".
-
I guess.
-
You were quite busy this year.
-
But seeing you two have so much to do
-
made me feel like
I wasn't that busy this year.
-
That's how he feels about it.
-
You two were working
like crazy this year.
-
That's how you've always worked.
-
Exactly.
-
- Really?
- Yeah.
-
It was crazy before.
[Yamada: convinced]
-
I guess it was.
-
You just went back to working normally.
-
We were all busy this year.
[Thank you everyone]
-
It went by so fast.
-
A year went by and we lost a member.
-
What?
-
You're so kind.
-
You mention it all the way until 2025.
-
He didn't leave it there.
-
I thought he'd leave it in 2024.
-
Of course I wouldn't.
-
You're so kind.
-
If it were me,
I might've not said anything.
-
It's not about being kind.
I'm still mad about it the most.
-
No, but you're too kind.
-
Are you watching?
-
Na...
-
You could at least text us
once in a while.
-
Who was it again?
-
Yeah, what's his name?
-
I can't remember.
-
Wait a minute.
What are we talking about?
-
[Happy new year]
-
So, yeah...
-
We're starting fresh.
-
Exactly.
-
What do you want to do this year?
-
We couldn't really go anywhere last year.
-
- We really couldn't.
- If we're talking about anywhere far.
-
You're right.
-
Where do you think
you'll be free to go somewhere?
-
Based on your current schedule.
-
Well, yeah.
-
Right.
-
There's one place we're going to.
-
No, no, no...
-
In February, right?
-
This doesn't count as a trip.
-
It's breakfast in another city.
-
I meant an actual trip!
-
It's like you don't want to go.
-
- It's not that...
- You can only eat in Tokyo?
-
It's only January, let's not do this.
-
Please hear me out.
I'm talking about going on a trip.
-
It IS a trip.
-
It's not!
-
Why not?
-
I'm going there for work.
-
But we're not.
-
Also, I don't really want you
to call it work.
-
[Devastated]
-
It might be for work but...
-
Wait, wait.
-
But it is, kind of.
-
I mean...
-
"Kind of."
-
We have a little expedition planned.
-
Somewhere I can go to
with just the two of you?
-
Isn't there one place?
-
The one we keep mentioning.
-
Guam?
-
Guam, yes.
-
Of course, that too.
-
I've never been there before.
-
To Guam, yeah.
-
I'd like to go.
-
That could be one possibility.
-
Somewhere closer would be South Korea.
-
That, too.
-
Or somewhere in Japan?
-
Or even Taiwan.
-
Right. It's only 3 or 4 hours away.
-
We could spend the day there.
-
Only a day?
-
I want to go somewhere far.
-
Yeah, to make up for 2024.
-
Let's do it in 2025.
-
Can't we go in January?
-
You mean, this month?
-
On the 11th or 12th.
-
Huh? 11th...
-
Wait, wait. I'm on tour in Fukuoka.
-
You don't have to come to Fukuoka.
-
We were just talking about
how we wanted to go.
-
You definitely weren't.
No one mentioned it.
-
Oh, so you'll be there too?
-
I'll be on tour.
-
What? No way!
-
Stop pretending.
-
[A mess on New Year's]
-
- What a coincidence
- No, it's not.
-
Are you listening?
-
Oh, by the way.
-
May I bring my new members this year?
-
New members?
-
From my group timelesz.
-
You can.
-
Right?
-
No.
-
I think it's fine.
-
You can even bring them
every other week or something.
-
To make them get familiar.
-
That's nice of you.
-
- Right?
- No.
-
[sigh]
-
No, but...
-
Actually, it's pretty good.
-
It hasn't been decided yet.
-
It's different. How can I explain it?
-
Until now... Well...
-
It feels similar, actually.
-
Huh?
-
Everyone is pretty normal.
-
Aren't you the same?
-
Yeah.
-
Kind of like Kochi, right?
-
Yes.
-
He joined suddenly.
-
It was an interesting feeling for me.
-
He wasn't already in the industry but...
-
- But suddenly, he was on TV.
- Yes.
-
It's probably similar to this.
-
It definitely is.
-
But they're older than Kochi at the time.
-
No, but I really think that...
-
Every other week, we can do
"Who's the timelesz member of the day?"
-
That sounds good.
-
No.
-
[sigh]
-
But we don't know
how many members will join.
-
But it's a possibility.
-
Today, it's this guy.
Or something like that.
-
If only one person joins us,
he'll have to come every other week.
-
That'll make him fit in more quickly.
-
If more than two,
they'll come once in a while.
-
Yeah, yeah.
-
So, that's the plan for timelesz.
-
No, it's not.
-
Come on, it's New Year's.
-
[Rare: quiet seasonal plea]
-
Because it's New Year's...
-
You can just pretend.
-
But if I do that,
you'll say we have proof on video.
-
I really don't want to have to do that.
-
It's our first video of the year.
-
Yeah.
-
It's almost time to pick the members.
-
- Yes, almost.
- In spring.
