はい、みんな！少しづつ、凱旋コンMCのことを書こうと思って・・・・まあ、ほとんどシンプルな英訳なんだけど、なんとか我慢してください！！笑。

Minna!

I'm gonna try to translate Arashi Around Asia Concert's interesting MC parts for you.... I shall try to translate as closely as possible.... Hopefully the gist is there ne! Hai!

This is FINAL performance's MC on 5th Jan in Yokohama Arena:

MC - around 8:30pm
Jun: I have one question... Everyone here in the concert hall is not going to watch my drama?
Aiba chan: Well everyone can get home in 30 minutes yo!
Leader: Everyone records it!
Sho: In G-code ne. Do we still have G-code now?
Aiba chan: Yes there is yo! It's written in the newspapers!
Sho: Do you know what does G stands for?
Aiba chan: That right? (looking at Sho with no more words).... Hya hya hya hya (laughing) I wanted to say GIANTS!

Aiba chan: You know my family has a parrot right?
Kazu: Oh you mean the one that ran away?
Aiba chan: It didn't run away!
Kazu: Didn't you say previously that it ran away? Was that some other bird?
Aiba chan: Aaah, that bird ran away... This time we really take very good care of this parrot, in the dog house. Our dog dies, and my dad said he is lonely. Our dog Atom's smell is still in the dog house so we didn't want to get rid of it. That's why our parrot is being reared there.
Jun: It is something quite different ne!
Aiba chan: Then, the parrot remembered a word today!! What do you think that word is? It's not something you would use often.
Sho: One day One night.
Leader: Reverse of Start & Finish.
Kazu: No one can be specially excited about THAT!
Aiba chan: That dog house's door, when we open it, there is a KEEEE sound. Our parrot remembered that sound!

THIS IS NOT A WORD, EVERYONE LAUGHED LOUDLY!

Aiba chan: I said, when the door opens, there is a KEE KEE KEE sound made. I always think what a noise so early in the morning!
Jun: It's you who is noisy ne!

Sho: It's been really fast, these 3 days. OK shall we talk about what we did during New Year?
Jun: Ha ha we had done this 3 times already!
Aiba chan: Then let's talk about Christmas!

Sho's Xmas
Sho: Ahh, I dressed up as Santa Claus!!! I was so popular!
Kazu: You said popular but.....
Aiba chan: Fuua ha ha ha ha ha.
Sho: I bought the Santa clothes at Donkey, and no one recognizes me when I waited and stroll on the streets!
Leader: Purai, Purai, was that in Private?
Kazu: Ha ha how many times must you eat your words?
Sho: When I walked, some people rolled down their car windows and said SANTA CLAUS! to me...... I said to them (in a low voice) MERRY CHRISTMAS. They asked me WHERE DID I COME FROM? I told them (again in a low voice) TOKYO yo!
Kazu: Can you please don't teach others incorrect fact?
Aiba chan: That's right! Santa Claus is from Finland yo! You have been there right, Finland?
Jun: ??????
Aiba chan: Aaaah, please delete what I said!

Jun's Xmas
Jun: I went to a party.
Sho: So you went in your Doumyouji coat?
Jun: I went to a 10-year old boy's home party! He is NOT my kid!
Sho: Did you dress up as Santa Claus? (so persistent)
Jun: Nope.
Sho: Aaah, you would have been very popular in that suit!
Jun: The party had about 50 guests! (sugoi)
Aiba chan: How about the OPPOSITE Leader?
Jun: Don't assume his Christmas is the opposite of mine ha ha!
Leader: I was performing on stage (play) yo!
Aiba chan: Oh yeah....
Leaer: My throat was a bit uncomfortable and wierd. Then when I met Jun, he said YOUR VOICE IS A BIT FUNNY NE. And I got some medicine from Jun. He said this is good. It really was good! Jun was really kind! (talking while looking at his pet Kazu ha ha)
Jun: When Leader came back, I met him and he told me his voice came out real loud!
Sho: Jun ne, if you tell him what health problem you have, he will give you medicine. It's like, Matsumoto Pharmacy!
Jun: That's why my bag is always so heavy ne!
Aiba chan: Kazu? How about your Christmas?
Kazu: Hai?
Aiba chan: Er, you look very sad/down so I want to ask you....
Kazu: That day was really great! We were filming drama from 10am to 5pm that day. I didn't have any other work schedule before or after this time so I asked them WHY do we limit the time to this? Then I was told Umemiya-san wanted to decorate his Christmas tree until 9am in the morning so requested for filming to start from 10am instead. And after 5pm he had to dress up as Santa Claus so he had to go.
Sho: If you had told me I would have joined him as Santa!
Kazu: So I went with the other casts and staff for steam-boat after filming yo.
Leader: What type of steam-boat?
Sho: It doesn't matter right? ha ha

Aiba chan's Xmas
Aiba chan: My birthday... Aahhh, I ate steam-boat yo!
Leader: What steam-boat?
Sho: I already said it doesn't matter right>
Jun: You said steam-boat twice and had such a happy face when you said it!
Aiba chan: 25th, I had to go renew my driving license.
Kazu: You got your license on your birthday?
Aiba chan: Yes, and I thought it would not be crowded since it's Christmas..... VERY VERY crowded yo! And I was a bit irritated there... Probably I showed an impatient face too... (showing it to fans)
Jun: So ugly yo! Ha ha
Aiba chan: Then a lady came to me, asking me ARE YOU AIBA KUN? I am going to Shimura Doubutsuen tomorrow! I was telling myself such a situation can really happen ne....
Kazu: ........ Return back the time to us yo!!! (because Aiba chan wasn't talking any interesting events of his birthday nor his Christmas!)

Aiba chan was as usual very innocent and free-spirit.....

Sho: After the countdown concert, this guy was really terrible! (pointing at Aiba chan)

[It seems that after that concert, there was an event whereby all the top management of Johnny Office gathered and held a celebration. While the top management was queuing up, Sho was being called up by one of them to queue around them. But Sho had difficulty going to that queue all alone so he went to Aiba chan and asked Aiba chan to go with him. In the end, the top management saw the 2 of them at one corner and asked them to come over to sit with the management. Sho had to sit beside Vice-chairman. Then Aiba chan sat on the other side of Sho, and whispered in his ears: Just as how you wanted it to happen ne! Sho was so embarrassed he scolded Aiba chan in a low voice! Seems the Vice-chairman heard what they said ha ha]

Aiba chan: After that ne, we went to eat ramen! And NewS members were there too and they ordered their ramen. But after that NewS members had to leave in their car. I thought they were quite pitiful. At that time the ramen waitress said WHO ORDERED TSUKIMI SOBA? and I helped her by asking if anyone ordered that. Then Sho said didn;t the NewS members left already?!
Sho: Yes I said OH I THINK THEY HAVE LEFT!
Aiba chan: Then Mori-san said I ORDERED IT! ha ha she was a little upset with Sho for saying that!
Leader: I ordered ramen but Tanuki Soba came instead yo!

Aiba chan: Talking about Countdown con, the Inoshishi Seven was great ne!
Sho: When did you guys know that you are in this "group"?
Kazu: I knew from the newspaper yo!
Jun: I was told by Kazu smiling so happily!
Sho: How do you feel being chosen for Inoshishi Seven?
Kazu: VERY honoured.
Jun: Very mysterious to me.
Aiba chan: Why was it Seven PLUS ONE in the end?
Kazu: There was also Kazama! Just one more Kazama right?
Jun: That group was just for that purpose? It ended?
Kazu: That? You don't know? That's the end of it!
Sho: Can still continue right? Like Shuji and Akira! Make it the AGGRESSIVE AMIGO!
Kazu: That's not true yo.... At first we thought we had to sing one song so everyone gathered. And we had 3 songs in mind. But with those members? Definitely some of them will not want to sing those songs...
Sho: Those songs are not really relevant....
Kazu: Then, Sakamoto (V6) told us to decide on the song. But we couldn't agree on one. In the end, there will be no song, and we were told to just do our new year greeting by Fuji TV....
Aiba chan: But that was fun ne!
Kazu: We sat in the same car as Shonentai ne!
Leader; I sat with Higashiyama san!
Aiba chan: Oh Higashiyama san ne.
Kazu: Yes.
Aiba chan: What? Ha ha ha.
Sho: You are even more FREE-spirited than usual today ne!
Aiba chan: SORRY ha ha ha.

Minna! Phew I hope the gist is there and you can at least grasp what the boys said!! I need a rest ha ha.....
