I’ve just been part of such a small bit of its history, but it’s already the 4th anniversary!

• duet -  ダブルスターライト  (Double Starlight)
  

Come now, we’ll guide you
So smile, believe in the string of possibilities, and face tomorrow.

• Nogami Sho - Make up lip
  

This is just a coincidence, but it’s already fate
Everything about you has become something I want to know

• Yashiro Taku - Two Steps

Even if you hear me asking “Where shall we go today?”
I already know, like I know everything else about you.

This took so so long I’M SORRY BUT FFS THAT RAP Full translated lyrics for all songs under the cut!

duet -  ダブルスターライト  (Double Starlight)

As we aim to be the brightest star
(Go up to the stage!)
We go journey up to the very end
(It just started now)
My heart is burning

The unfolding future
(No, nobody knows)
Is uncharted, new history
(Singing like a star)
It’s time for everything to change 

We want to show you the greatest passion
Sometimes, it just comes from love and dreams

Step into love, we can’t let go (Yay!) of our bonds with you (Say!)
That’s right, we’ll show you (Hey!) the two sparkling starlights(Yes!)
Until the very end
(Raise up the starlight, light that never dies)
Of the world
(Double starlight emerging from the darkest night)
We want to convey these feelings in two-part duet

Come now, we’ll guide you
(Going my own way!)
So smile, (We are walking on)
Believe in the thread of possibilities, and face tomorrow

There are dreams we want to come true,
(Catch a dream and love)
So there are also times when
(Sometimes we must fight)
We clash and collide

If we’ve always wanted the greatest experience,
Then putting this in song is better than words,
Let’s use courage and hope.

Get back true minds, we won’t get lost in
Small (Yay!) things like pride (Say!)
Break the cycle, we are starlights(Yay!)
Shouting until our voices go hoarse (Yay!)
If you gather
(Starlight scattering like fireworks)
Our heartbeats
(Double starlight colliding with passion)
Time shall tick away in lightyears

The wish we’re aiming for
Is what links our sky to you.

Step into love, we can’t let go (Yay!) of our bonds with you (Say!)
That’s right, we’ll show you (Hey!) the two sparkling starlights(Yes!)

Get back true minds, we won’t get lost in
Small (Yay!) things like pride (Say!)
Break the cycle, we are starlights(Yay!)
Shouting until our voices go hoarse (Yay!)
Until the very end
(Raise up the starlight, light that never dies)
Of the world
(Double starlight emerging from the darkest night)
We want to convey these feelings to you.

Nogami Sho - Make up lip 

How long has this been going on?
Oh, please, please tell me
Because I just want to know you better,
I get you, I get you, that’s all there is to it

You’re scared to say how you really feel,
So if you want to feel like you’re someone else, then,

Here’s a secret palette, it’s magic!
I’m not lying, this is for real!
For the sake of your honest smile,
I’ll always be by your side.

Put some makeup on your lips,
Take a look, it really suits you
You’re tinted in pink, so cuz of this, [go on,]
Yes, just the way you are.

We’re together everyday,
So if there’s anything bothering you, please tell me
And when you’re crying,
I’ll cheer you right up.

This is just a coincidence, but it’s already fate
Everything about you has become something I want to know

Here’s a secret palette, fantastic
This is just for you, soul lipstick
So that you’d be able to say your honest words,
I’ll always be by your side.

Take over the world,
If you run away it’s game over
I’ll softly make those lips of yours pink
And always be by your side.

Don’t be afraid,
Don’t pretend [to be anyone else],
Adorning yourself and playing a part are two different things,
Whoa…

Here’s a secret palette, it’s magic!
I’m not lying, this is for real!
No matter where, I’ll be by your side,
For the sake of your smile.

Put some makeup on your lips
Take a look, it really suits you
(“You look good.”)
You’re tinted in pink, so cuz of this, [go on,]
Yes, just the way you are

Yashiro Taku - Two Steps

Even if you hear me asking “Where shall we go today?”
I already know, like I know everything else about you.

Through this path with the wind blowing,
If we walk at the same pace, our gazes will intertwine.

The clear colors of the world
Started changing because of you
I wonder what my eyes looked like when I noticed it?
I just noticed when I looked down [at you]

(You and me,)
With your voice, the way you act towards me right now,
(Going now, the two of us talking,)
Let’s chat more, so we can get to know each other better, shall we?

I want you to tell me about anything,
So let’s go somewhere a bit further today.

If you’re happy, then these sceneries
Will always become good memories

We are the many-colored pieces on the path we chose to go on.
The lights of the world have gathered here to dance.

(Shining heart)
As we innocently laugh together
(I’m feeling, as I talk with you,)
Let me stay next to you forever.

That’s right, let’s go make a miraculous time
[What you were saying] just now, can you let me hear it?
Because it’s all precious [to me].

The clear colors of the world
Changed to make way for a bright future
My heart can’t stop beating
I just noticed this while I was looking at you

(You and me,)
With my voice and the smile on my face right now,
(Going now, the two of us talking,)
Let’s chat more;
If you wanna get to know each other better, let me know

(I want to chat)
(I’m feeling I want to know you more and more,)
(I’m feeling, let’s go walk together, ah)

Ahh, this update got delayed so much, sorry about that…
It’s already 2018.
Last week was “Nekorobi Danshi”.

2018 (Comprehensive)
5th place: Kousaka Atsushi

To the polite and excellently practical Kousaka Atsushi-san

Someone with good intuition, a fertile imagination, who works for the sake of his peers and the people around him.

It seems that a lot of things that didn’t go well have happened, and have made you sulk.
However, as the years pass your real abilities have taken shape, so do your best.

Your life may seem irregular, but somehow, a resurgence…
If ever you wanted an answer to something this year, don’t rush to come up with a conclusion immediately.

If you ever get tired of listening to people and stuff, go keep some distance from them.

Your lucky item is red pants. Ah, that means underwear.

Fifth place out of five people, huh.
The message seems to be “hang in there” so I’ll do my best.
If I don’t get to buy lots of red underwear soon…

Atsushi will always be behind the cats…

• thanks for reading!

This is a translation of Animate Times’ event report of the October reading event by 8P (Eight Piece), a seiyuu project by  Hatanaka Tasuku, Nogami Sho, Yashiro Taku, Enoki Junya, Lounsbery Arthur, Kousaka Atsushi, Masuyama Takeaki, and Chiba Shouya. Full translation can be seen under the cut!

Hatanaka Tasuku, Nogami Sho, et al’s “8P (Eight Piece)” holds a reading event! This is a report of their reading drama and talk parts!

Last October 14, 2017, the young male seiyuu project 8P(Eight Piece) had its reading event in Tokyo Yomiuri Hall.

8P(Eight Piece) is a project comprised of Hatanaka Tasuku, Nogami Sho, Yashiro Taku, Enoki Junya, Lounsbery Arthur, Kousaka Atsushi, Masuyama Takeaki, and Chiba Shouya. In this event, the continuations of the four reading dramas that had been broadcast on Animate Channel as part of 8P Channel 2 - whose theme songs had been released, one pair at a time, starting June 7, 2017 - had been performed.

In the afternoon session, they had Hatanaka and Chiba’s Lament Song to the Moon and Enoki and Masuyama’s Hachigaku! On the other hand, this report is about the night session, which had Lounsbery and Kousaka’s The Rose Garden and Nogami and Yashiro’s Starlight Stage!

Lounsbery and Kousaka play the main characters in The Rose Garden - Meiji Chapter.

The curtain opens on the reading drama The Rose Garden - Meiji Chapter. At its very center are Kousaka’s young man Reese and Lounsbery’s vampire Ewan; the story spins a tale out of the painful bonds of Reese, who passes over from the Meiji era to the current age, and Ewan, who yearns for Reese’s blood. Kousaka was able to portray the fear and distress of someone being struck by a vampire through his gestures and expression. Lounsbery uses a dainty, fragile expression as he portrays Ewan, who had been rejected by Reese, who struggles with his own immortality. Playing the characters surrounding Reese and Ewan are the other six members, bringing the story to its climax.

As the story comes to its end, Lounsbery and Kousaka move to the front of the stage, their cloaks trailing behind them. Sweetly, heartrendingly, and from the bottom of their hearts, they sung the theme song of their drama, the duet fate ～A Forbidden Scent～. Illuminated by penlights in their associated colors blue and sky blue, the hall had a magical ambiance to it. With their singing voices and choreography, Kousaka and Lounsbery were able to portray the frustratingly close and yet way too far mutual distance between Reese and Ewan, once more bringing their audience to tears.

Illuminated by penlights in their associated colors blue and sky blue, the hall had a magical ambiance to it.

Sweetly, heartrendingly, and from the bottom of their hearts, Lounsbery and Kousaka sung their duet song fate ～A Forbidden Scent～

Replacing the two of them, Masuyama and Enoki step on the stage, as the MCs. They call the six other members back to the stage for the talk part! As everyone, wearing black suits and a necktie with their assigned color, greets the audience again, Chiba, in his black suit and white necktie, quips “I just came from a wedding,” leading the other members to jealously blurt out “That’s unfair!” as their laughter rolls off the stage. And then Lounsbery, when asked about the song he just finished singing, says “It’s because it’s a pop song, it’s not like the the usual ‘go! go!’ music we usually do…” pretending he didn’t use that kind of word before on 8P, only to burst into laughter as soon as he’d said it.

The night session’s MC were Masuyama and Enoki.

Everyone steps onto the stage in their matching black suits! In a complete 180° from the reading drama which brought the audience to tears, the eight of them made everyone laugh during the talk part.

Once more, the talk part works off of the theme decided upon. The theme shared with the afternoon session was “lines which left an impression,” leaving Kousaka and Lounsbery to both ask “what were you saying back there again!?” to each other. Also, they talked about “things we don’t wanna stop doing no matter what,” and the inside stories behind the production process of their event goods.

In the second half of the event, the story of hot-blooded young man Reo and cool Kai unfolds, as they become closer to their dream of being top idols. Yashiro portrays earnest, cheerful Reo with a strong confident voice. On the other hand, Nogami, who plays Kai - who had taken up idol work to settle the discord within his family - is generally cool, sometimes passionate. Aside from Reo and Kai, there are two other characters who gradually cause trouble for them. The other six play their stubborn rival (CV. Lounsbery) and Kai’s younger brother Shougo (CV. Chiba), as well as the other characters supporting Reo and Kai, headed by Masuyama, on the stage, further adding color to the drama.

And then, Nogami, in his pink cloak, and Yashiro, in his yellow cloak, jump into singing their duet song “Double Starlight”. As they fill the halls to full capacity with their pink and yellow penlights, you can feel being wrapped up in the fans’ enthusiasm. With the way they held eye contact and their flawless dance steps, just like the idols they portrayed, they were able to charm the audience.

The two, passionately, confidently singing the theme song to their reading drama, “Double Starlight”.

Once more the eight of them head to the stage, to talk about their thoughts about the reading drama and duet song. Yashiro says, “The yellow and pink lights were beautiful. I always wanted to see them, but…when I’m dancing with this cloak in the way, sometimes I see it, sometimes I don’t…”

Coming from the theme “I’m really curious about this thing!”, the talk came to be about the “senmu” (lit. ‘senior managing director’) character played by Kousaka. From the start, “Senmu” had been a pet name 8P has been using as they got closer to Kousaka, leading to the audience murmuring amongst themselves and giggling when it was also the name of the role he was playing. During the time they were taping the first part of (the drama) for broadcast, the members also talked about the shock they had when they found out “Senmu (Kousaka) is gonna play a ‘senmu’!?” Also, they said that, on the script, the parts said by the managing director were erroneously marked with “Kousaka”, leading then to imagine “So could it be the character is actually him?”

During the talk theme of “a goal you’ve accomplished recently,” to Hatanaka’s goal this year, “I don’t want to forget anything,” Enoki confessed, “To be honest, I forgot to wear my belt today…”, and the 8P members then talked about stuff they easily forget! After that, Masuyama sums it all up by saying “This is the goal of all 8P members, I guess.”

They say their final words to the audience one by one. Hatanaka spoke fervently: “It’s a reading stage, so we had lots of thoughts that we wouldn’t be able to fill up a small theatre. But to see this many people assemble and seriously watch (our show), makes me very happy, as an actor.”

Nogami: “I had fun playing roles we don’t normally play, singing together, and getting to challenge various things. And I think that it’s all thanks to all the members altogether, and to everyone who came to see us.” Kousaka expresses his utmost gratitude: “For this 8P event, we just have a serious drama, so I wondered if it’ll be okay since all we ever did up to this point was stupid things, so I became uneasy… And because of that, when it’s about 8P I always feel a feeling of accomplishment that’s a little bit different from what I usually feel as a seiyuu or as an actor, and I’m really grateful for it.”

Lounsbery: “There’s solos we haven’t done yet, like for example (the in-show project) "Road to the Circus” (lol) If it’s for 8P, I’d like to see it.“ Masuyama: "Today we’ve been bonded by the confidence we have as part of 8P, and I think we’ve found our own challenges. We don’t know what’s in store for us yet, but from here on out we’ll keep on challenging ourselves, so everyone, please wait for us with excitement." 

At the very end, the eight of them sung "FULL VOLUME!!”, and, in the middle of all the multicolored lights, it felt like they were united. As they jumped and linked arms with each other, the eight of them singing with their smiles conveyed feelings that were worth more than words.

Animate Channel airs 8P Channel every second and fourth Friday of the month. It is currently airing its third season. The first halves of the reading dramas included in this event had been included in the DVDs for 8P Channel 2, which had been released sequentially starting from Wednesday, July 26, 2017. On Saturday, December 2, 2017, an event commemorating the release of the DVDs will be held at Animate for those who bought all 3 volumes of the 8P Channel 2 DVDs, so for those who have never gone to any of their events, this is your chance to see the charm of 8P up close!
