Ketika debut Arashi (Ohno Satoshi aka Riida)

“It’s something I’ve always enjoyed doing, but whenever I started drawing in my free time, somehow I wouldn’t be able to make myself stop. I had also gotten to the point where I was content with my dancing, and I decided that once I returned to Tokyo I would join an art school and get into some career involving drawing. However, when I returned to Tokyo and went to tell the company president that I wanted to quit, it was then that he asked “How about going to Hawaii?” 

~Ohno Satoshi~

   Although I’ve stated that I’d like to quit, but somehow I landed on “Mask”. This led to my “PlayZone” performance too. Then, Arashi was formed, it's kinda vague, because to me, this is my last chance. I was thinking “I wanna follow the trend”, but I couldn’t bring myself to sincerely to my best. During our debut in Hawaii, when the press conference ended, we went to the Jr. Concert. They were all introducing themselves during the MC part. “I am Sakurai Sho!” “AHHH~!!!”; “I am Matsumoto Jun!” “AHHH~!!!”; “I am Ohno Satoshi!” “…..(silent whispers)”, “EHHH?!” like this… I was thinking “Quick! Get down! Get down from the stage!”, “I am one step behind the members!”. At that time, suddenly I became very hardworking. For example, “I must reply all my fan mails!” things like that. To think about it, the rest of the members appeared a lot in the TV and were more popular.

     I’ve been in Kyoto all along, no one knows me. Although I know that our debut song got 1st, Arashi is quite well-known, but still I felt “I don’t have any fans”. Because I always hear things like “who’s that?”, “why isn’t it Takkey?” and “heaven knows?!” as a reply.  “Can I do it?” this thought really bothered me. But when Arashi’s five members are together I’m really happy, I was really comfortable from the start. Although there’re lots of troubles, they were all unleashed by the comfy feeling when the five of us are together. During our first concert, I was really worried, “will there be anyone holding my Uchiwa?” was my thought. I can never forget the scene when I saw so many of my Uchiwas in the midst of the audience crowd, what a relief. Then I gradually encouraged myself to be more positive.
