His red hair reminds me a lot of Ruki's previous haircolor...

All 5 members would answer a question corresponding to a letter from the band`s name ~
A - Animal (Matching the members with animals)
And here`s what they came up with ~
Shou - A tie between a cat and a rabbit
Pon - Mouse
Tora- Siberian husky (the dog)
Saga - Penguin. The other 4 members were passionatly proclaiming "HE`S SO PENGUIN-LIKE"... and �¹‰ä just responds "Really? I`m happy!"
Nao - Bear.

L - Like (What kind of people they like)
This wasn`t for girlfriends or anything, but more for respect or friendship. Saga started off with J (ex-LUNA SEA). After that, all the members agreed that they like Nao of Kagrra,.
Shou also says he likes all the other members of alice, and to that Tora asks "But that`s not love, right?" ... and Shou answers "Yeah, I`ll stick with like (laughs)"

I - Innocent (Who`s the most innocent)
It was a unanimous Hiroto there...

C - Change (If you could change into someone else, who would it be)
Ok, this one was good...
So Tora was pretty free about it, claiming anyone`s fine... but then he said that he`d like to become a girl.
Hiro said that anyone was fine...
Nao, in complete Nao fashion, said that he wanted to become ƒAƒ€ƒ�ƒŒƒC (Amurorei) from Gundam. I have no knowledge of that series, so I don`t know how to romanize the name properly...
Then Shou...
Shou - "I`d like to become the model that Saga likes, and then tempt him."
Saga - "So you`re saying you want to have XX with me?" (it was actually `XX`)
I`ll leave his answer in sweet suspense... muhahaha...

E - End (If the world would end tomorrow, what food would you eat)
Shou answers right away "SOY MILK!" ... is anyone surprised?
Tora answered that he would eat McDonalds. "Since it`s delicious, but terrible for your body, I`d eat it if I knew I`d die the next day. Dieing from McDonalds would be alright (laugh)"
Nao said he`s eat the most expensive food on the planet...
Saga and Shou both agreed on ramen...
And Hiro said his grandmother`s cooking. (Aaaaaaw) ~

N - News (Current news)
Most of the members talked about actual Japanese news... so I`ll skip that.
But Nao...
Nao - "Soon, I`m starting a new diet!"
Tora - "... that`s news!?"

I - If (If you could be transported in time, when would you be reborn)
Saga - "I want to go back in time 14 years and try harder at baseball..."
Tora - "And if you did that... you`d have become a professional baseball player!?"
Shou said he wanted to go back to the beginning of time / life... but the other members were pretty free with their answers.

N - New (New DVD single �uNUMBER SIX.�v)
There was talk about the new release here...

E - Everywhere (Something you have with you where ever you go)
Tora and Shou agreed on watches. Shou also mentioned his PSP...
Hiroto said accessories (necklace, bracelet etc.), and Nao said a handkerchief...
Saga - "I never leave my house without my point cards. I have point cards for so many shops, that if I forget them... I`ll really miss out."

oh, and another thing..really sweet

Tora: "I`m happiest when I`m eating my mother`s curry...

The friendship of Alice nine
As we know, friendship of the 5 members of Alice nine is not know to fans, and there are some people who wanted to know more about how each member views another. Today, we are really lucky to have an opportunity to hear what they have to say about the feelings they share for one another!


First of all, please share your feelings and thoughts about other member. Please start with Saga.

Tora: It is great to start this interview with him! Saga is the type who over reacts/ expressive.

Shou: He is like this because he had been reading too much Manga!

Tora: In Alice nine, he is the member that over-reacts the most!

Shou: That is true. Before we form this band, my first impression of him was the kind of person who doesn’t care about anything, but when we begun to know each other through working together, I realize how kind he really is, unlike what I first thought of him.

Hiro: My first impression..... He looks really serious.

Nao: Both serious and very quiet, but when we get to know him, he is wild and crazy. He does what he wanted to do!

Tora: He is exactly like this! What he wanted to do, he would get it and do it immediately. Even when we tell him not to, he does it anyway.

Shou: In this band, he is the wildest member!

Nao: Normally, he is a really cool guy, but sometimes, he acts too cool that it looks strange and funny!

Nao?

Tora: I wanna talk about Nao the most! He looks like that type of guy who is easy to understand but he isn’t! He is someone who is really hard to understand.

Shou: Speaking as in good and bad terms, he is not typical. He does things unexpectedly.

Hiro: He lies in the borderline of being a genius and a crazy man!

Saga: From all those people I have ever met, he is the strangest person! People see him as a person who is successful, cool and powerful.....that is so true!


Shou: In the band, he is our leader. He is the one who seems to have the most conscience, but he doesn’t!

Hiro: It’s like he understands but he got his own way of doing things!

Shou: we four except Nao, would do things with what we want, following out hearts, but Nao is the only one who does things with reasons. This is why he is our leader! He is the only one who understand what we need and aimed for, then he would explain it to others, and this is really important.

Hiroto?

Tora: He is straight forward.

Nao: He is a person who is easy to understand

Shou: It is like when we put batteries to fire, it will spark.

Tora: His style is nothing too complicated, comparing to a bulb, and when he place batteries in it, it would light up.

Shou: It is simple to understand him. He express all feelings. Being excited, bored, fun....

Tora: Whatever they say, he doesn’t care. He is an individual who as a developments and would grow up through everyday experiences. Quickly as well.

Shou: He is strong hearted at times. Seems like a housewife.

Saga: he might be a dad too along with that rock style.

Nao: In the band, he is the trendiest one. For example, he got his ipod in which he would be able to listen to new music before us!

Shou: That’s right! He would get something before others when it comes to fashion and trends. Other than that, he always help others to move forward, being the strength that pushes up forward.

Tora: When we are being discouraged, he encourages us once again with his support and we would feel encouraged again.

Nao: He is really determined with his future!

Shou?

Tora: he is a person who I knew the longest. He is difficult to understand. Four years ago, when I first saw him. My impression was that I didnt want to know anything about him because I didnt understand what he is saying. He is a person with talents and he doesn’t talk about himself that much.

Hiro: he is unluckiest one, like when we do naughty things, we would be first to get caught.

Tora: He ran really fast, Due to this, he meets the consequences first.

Hiro: Normally, he isn’t expressive, however, the friendship we have is really warm.

Nao: he got his own world, and he doesn’t talk about it.

Tora: Yes.

Nao: But his quietness is rather cute!

Saga: The friendship he has for friends, is really warm, he thinks of other before he thinks of himself. This is really kind!

Nao : Ask him something, he doesn’t deny.

Tora?

Shou : He is like a cat. Both his personality and mood. Embracing freedom, boring, doesnt like to stay in one place, and likes to detect for manga stores. He loves new things and is a straight forward person, following his heart and what he wants to do.

Nao: he is great in organizing his schedule, and could do so many things. Planning ahead of time. Tora is always like this.

Hiro: Think fast, do fast. This is so Tora.

Shou: He decides fast. He doesnt have a second thought, and does it quickly. Unlike me, who has to think over and over so many times before I start doing something. He is really kind, very dedicated, and is also really gentle. You may look him as masculine men, but he has his feminine side as well.

Saga: Yes, very dedicated, and very gentle.

Hiro: He has one disadvantage. He isn’t really active.

Shou: He got talents in music. He devote himself to it, and fill the spaces that the other members doesnt have. He is what makes the band complete.

Lastly, please leave fans a note about the concert.

Hiro: Nine months, we have no concerts tour at all. Now, we have this tour, Zekkeiiro. We are confident of the songs we have in this album that we shall play for everyone. We believe that we will bring the songs from album to the concert and we will make sure our songs would be accepted. I believe..... This is really important to me.

Nao: This tour is special. I want to play the drums right now, I can stand no longer! This tour, we and our fans are going to be a bit different in a good way!

Saga: we prepared a lot for this. In the studio, we practiced and put all put efforts into it. In this concert, we join five forces and this is gonna be fun.

Tora: This time we set a new goal for the concert, we each have a new character and fans would see Alice nine in a new style! This is great!

Shou: We want everyone to accept us as a rock band. This is our goal. We will slowly grow with this concert!
