Junichi Okada Duet April 2007 Interview

Thank you to effulgence for the scans and tommy for the translation!

*The outside is great. Today's photo shooting was so good. It's been a long time for me to throw a ball since KCE shooting. I felt like exercising naturally.
Recently I have played squash, I'm in fifth place at my fitness center. (laugh) But I'm losing a lot! I have to play a match with my trainers for a training. There are some working student trainers, but they never make allowances for me! Naturally I hope them to do so, but not at all. (laugh)
The other day I played a match with one of them, and I couldn't touch a ball at all.
Also I played FUTSAL. I was a defender so that I didn't make a goal, but I felt I had built up my physical strength.
To keep playing squash, I found I have gained much energy and improved very much. It's really interesting.

*I think it is important to sweat and run a lot, and drive me to train myself.
If there were no stimuluses, my heart and body would be lazy at once. (laugh)
I like both of watching and playing sports.
Soccer, rugby, tennis and ping-pong....I watch anything on TV.
I watch the Olympic Games without sleeping even if those are on the air at midnights. (laugh) Sport has a drama, and I like it very much.
I also like combative sports and ekiden.( a long-distance relay road race)
That's a great drama, too.

*I like team sports better because I used to play rugby.
Rock-climing may seem to be indivisual, but there are many situations to cooperate with others. To communicate with people, I suppose sports are the best way.
I could find their characteres while playing. (laugh)
Do I play sports with girls? I don't think so... Do they who are active in sports catch my heart? I don't know, I've never put emphasis on it. (laugh) I really don't care about it. But I want to watch sports on TV with girlfreind. If she didn't know the rules, I would teach her.
I just want to play something like badminton or Frisbee with her for pleasure, it's really enough for me as a man. (laugh)
