[arashitranslation]

--- ZIP!
Q: What is your feeling now?
M: Today is the first time this film is watched by audience, I look forward to it.

Q: During live, Matsumoto-san will say thing like “We five members will give you fortune”, such sweet words.
M: You know it (giggle).

M: “If the normal Matsumoto-kun is 100, I hope you would make your strength of eyesight down to around 40%.” Director requested me. And I said “40%? It’s not even half, is me in such way really OK?”

M: In my imagination, is around 40% a tension of a human, the way of speaking, the way of movement, things like that.
Q: Though you say that if 40% you are not you, indeed your strength of eyesight is something well recognised by everyone?
M: No, no, no, no (giggle). I myself am not sure, it should be the treasure of orthopedics right?
Q: From just what I see, (your eyes) are natural (not after orthopedics).
M: Please stop such follow. With such follow it seems that (my eyes) are fake (after orthopedics).

Q: If you became a teacher, what subject would you think you would like to teach?
M: The subject I like is Mathematics. (Reported felt surprised) Do you feel surprised? I was good at it.

Q: What is your utlimate love?
M: For me it probably would be love at first sight. Because I have no experience on this, it would be (Look at something distant) “Eh?” feeling like this, right? I have no such experience… It’s bit romantic isn’t it? I want to have a try! (Giggle)

Q: Today in the studio Hey! Say! JUMP’s Inoo-san is here.
M: Yes.
Q: What do you want to say to him?
M: Me? Nothing in particular! (Giggle)
Q: Are you kidding…
M: It would be great if he doesn’t bother you all.
Q: That he is here is reassured to us…
M: Really? Reassured?? Inoo-kun?
Q: Yes.
M: He works hard. Please continue taking care of our Inoo. (To camera) Work hard, Inoo~

I like MatsuJun with 40% strength of original eyesight is the perfect depiction of the character in director's perspective? :) I haven't read every interview of the film, while I seemed to recall an interview with the director that the director had an idea of filming this film ten years ago but all along he didn't find a suitable actor and then he now thinks MatsuJun in his 30s would act this character well... Something like this but I didn't really recall. If happens I find the article perhaps I get it translated too :)

I think I just said my inner wish loud XD To be honest ever since I read the plot of movie I dislike it, somehow I was (am still) quite confused about it,I still can't figure out why Jun chose to act in it and so. that's why I wish the director'd chosen another actor.x'D

that part about what the director's said about the role is new for me :) I hadn't heard about it.(although from what I read about the character it doesn't seem to be that special^^;;;; but....sorry I just can't hold myself not nagging about the movie xD you could ask my poor TL on twitter!^^;;;sorry)
but you know what I just hope all of my imaginations'll be wrong and the movie'll be a good one! I believe in him:)

btw if you could find the article I'll be more than happy to read it^^/ and also I'll be grateful if you could translate some of Jun's interviews about the movie,because I really want to know his opinion about it m(_ _)m

I think I recall Jun mentioned once (?) that he was confused about the character, and that romance? But sorry I can't recall where I read it. Most of the interviews thus far are from Director, Jun's interview boom is about to come. If I manage to get the magazines with Jun's interviews I also hope to know more about how he thinks about the character and the filming. I think he'll talk more in the upcoming interviews.

if I remember correctly he said the same thing about chocojun too.
yeah, it hasn't started properly yet, it's gonna be crazy!xD
