"When it comes to how I dress in my day-to-day, I generally choose clothes that are easy to wear and aren't super show-offy. I like this cardigan because it's comfortable to wear, and also because when I need to record an idea that's come to me, it's important that the fabric doesn't make a lot of noise when you move and the fabric rubs past itself. By the way, Anne is the one who picked this out for me. At first I thought it was a bit too flashy, but now I wear it all the time."
"I want to keep it relaxed while I'm at home, so I tend to choose simple clothes that don't overwhelm. I think this knit vest is very useful, because it can change the entire vibe of the outfit on its own. It's an casual outfit for day-to-day that doesn't look too thrown-together, so I find myself wearing it quite often."
"I've been wanting to wear a matching top and bottom set lately, but other people are always wearing, like, casual suits and shirt sets, you know? But on the other hand, I was thinking that just going out in sweats feels like a total no-go, and that's when I came up with this! I think the striped socks and the sneakers help give it just that perfect pop of streetwear style."
"Because I usually wear tailored suit jackets for work, I generally choose something a bit different when I'm not on the job. This leather jacket is my favorite; I've had it for about ten years. I like the fact that the more I wear it, the more it breaks in and takes on a unique texture."
"Wearing too many bright colors makes you look like a little kid. I like wearing black. But wearing all-black doesn't look good either, so I try to pick out tops that have some kind of eye-catching detail. I don't want to have to carry around a bag or anything like that when I go out, so I usually only keep my wallet and cigarettes on me."
"Nobody alive can stop Ryu-kun, who comes fully-armed with unparalleled megaton-class fashion sense! When the nefarious tererorist group The Evil Raccoons show up at the bar without warning and kidnap Shikki, it's up to the vice principal, armed with matcha jelly and a bathroom air freshener, to thwart their evil plans! (Coming this fall.)"
"I really like this shirt I got from the Owner a long time ago, and I wear it often. It's still a little bit too big for me, but it seems like everyone is wearing oversized shirts these days, so I think it's fine. Ah, as for the rest... I do like leather shoes, but they're a little bit too stiff for me, so I decided to go with sneakers instead."
"Nayuta picked this outfit out for me. I wear it a lot because it's comfortable."
"I ride a skateboard to get around town, too, so I like clothes that are easy to move in. I go for tops in trendy colors that aren't too dark, and since I like the oversize fit, I size up. Of course our music has to be good, but we have to look good, too."
"I make it real flashy on stage, but when it comes to my day to day, I focus a lot on wearing comfortable clothes, y'know? Samue and geta get me in good spirits. Wear that with a button-down, and you're lookin' sharp. And top it off with a gold chain necklace and you're good to go!"
"I'm a bigger guy, so unfortunately, my clothing options can be a bit limited. When I'm at work at CANDY, I wear suits, but I tend to outgrow them quickly due to how much I work out; so, I tend to pick out larger clothes that I can relax in. The jacket was a birthday gift from the other members of Akan Yatsura."
"Isn't the cat on this sweater cute?"
"I wanna wear cool clothes and look good, since I'm a rapper, after all. I've been digging this vest lately, so I've been wearing it a lot. It goes well with a hoodie, like I'm wearin' here, and it also looks sick over a t-shirt, so that's cool too. I wanna get blinged out like Aniki wears during live shows, but that shit's expensive!"
"The trend right now is for oversized stuff, so I decided to go size-up from head to toe. I wanted to use color to make it cuter, but doing only super bright colors would be cloying, so I threw in the black bucket hat and pants to make it cooler. Man, I sure am stylish~"
I chose sneakers on purpose to make the look more casual.
How would you spend a day off?
"I like to relax, so if I have a day off, I think I'd like to go somewhere like an aquarium or an art museum. Places like that have this kind of extarordinary feeling that I find really excites me. It's nice to have a change of pace, so I don't mind going alone. So, if I went there on a date, I would be able to show my date around pretty well. If we get tired of walking, it'd be nice to relax at a café with a calm atmosphere and drink some coffee. I think it would be ideal to spend some time together, just the two of us, in a way we enjoy."
A look that suits the season but doesn't oversell the American casual style!
How would you spend a day off?
"If I'm gonna have fun on a day off, then I'd want to meet up around noon and maybe go shopping! It's way more fun to go shopping when you're going with someone else, right? I'd want to start out by checking the skincare products at the department store's cosmetics section, and after that, check out some fashion outlets to check out some clothes. It'd be a lot of fun to pick out coords for each other and then buy them for each other as presents~! Then at night, we gotta get hyped ↑↑↑ with some delicious dinner and then go hopping to some karaoke bars!"
I added purple socks as an essential pop of accent color.
How would you spend a day off?
"It would vary depending on her personal preference, but if I were going to go on a date with my princess, I would be happy to head to a flower garden with her. Being in nature makes me feel at ease, and I love flowers, so I'm sure we'd have a lovely time. I also have some tea houses that I highly recommend, so it would be lovely to go there for a cup of tea. It's always sad to say goodbye, but it's lovely to part ways at the sunset. I wouldn't want my princess to have to walk home at night alone, after all. I'd like to prepare a surprise for her at the end of the date, as well."
The main focus point is the rabbit hair band, for sure~ Doesn't it suit me perfectly?
How would you spend a day off?
"If I had a day off, I'd wake up early and go to a theme park~! I get suuuper excited every time I go to a theme park! There's tons of cool scenery and cute-looking food, so there's tons of photo ops ♪ But roller coasters and haunted houses are a lot of fun too, but I actually prefer mellower rides like merry-go-rounds, you know? I wanna spend my day off enjoying all the attractions all day and then going on the ferris wheel and strolling around looking at all the lights at night~."
Please share with us how you might spend a day off.
"There are no days off for those who walk the path of supremacy. Don't you dare assume that my daily life is anything like that of a lowly worm. With that said, there are times where I head out in order to acquire new clothing. Naturally, if it is going to be something that I wear, I will only buy things from high-class outlets that mere commoners would never be able to afford. I don't have a lot of free time to waste on something as mundane as shopping, so I only do this when a new item has arrived at a store with which I have a good rapport. As a member of the Yeon family, it is important to spend sometime on these business relationships. I get Chungsung to attend to my belongings and bags."
Please share with us how you might spend a day off.
"Wherever the young master is is where I will be. As his butler, it would be untoward for me to make judgments about where I would or would not like to be. Recently, I accompanied the young master on a shopping excursion. Even going shopping is a matter of social importance for the Yeon family, so I must be meticulous about my appearance. I dressed myself in accordance with the outfit established by Dongha-bocchama himself. To carry the burden of the clothing and shoes he purchased is the most delightful burden."
How would you spend a day off?
"I often spend my time writing songs. I notice that, when I want to be inspired or need to think about something, I will often go to look at the ocean. I tend to feel ill at ease when I spend too long in a crowd, so when I'm doing something important or creating something important, I want to be alone and have a chance to clear my head. Also, sometimes I cook. I've rarely seen the need to cook for myself until recently, but I've been doing it more ever since Rokuta and Itsuki moved in."
How would you spend a day off?
"I prefer to stay at home. I find it much easier to be at ease there than when I am out. Although sometimes Rokuta's behavior can pose a challenge, I understand that this is a necessary cost of cohabitation. The thing I find most enjoyable about being at home is washing and cleaning up. Though the results are of course the end goal, I find the process itself quite satisfying. Aside from that, I often listen to music. More than being about what I like or dislike doing, it is essential to learn more about the diverse modes of expression. Increasing that which I intake will assist in the fulfilment of our team's goals."
How would you spend a day off?
"My favorite place to go is the park! When I play at the house I tend to break things, and Itsuki-nii is always scolding me for it~. So, when I go to the park, there's lots of stuff to play on and I can run around as much as I wanna! ... ah, but then, if I get hungry, I won't be able to move, so I've gotta make sure I bring a bento or snacks. When it comes to food, I'd be happiest if I had my favorite food, karaage~! I want everyone to bring bentos to the park and play when it's nice out~. I'll have to ask Itsuki-nii and Kei-chan to come along next time I go!"
How would you spend a day off?
"I wouldn't say that we really have a clear division between weekdays and days off. We spend our free time on the premises of the prefab housing we've been provided. If we get permission from the higher ups, the prisoners can go out, so we sometimes go for walks together. Well... I say we go on walks, but we generally just walk around the immediate area; I don't want to cause any trouble. As for me personally, I enjoy eating senbei and drinking green tea while watching travel programs that I've recorded. My day-to-day is generally pretty hectic, so that kind of time to relax is the only chance I really have to unwind."
How would you spend a day off?
"Can't really do much in the prefab house we're living in now, so I usually just work out or write lyrics. In my lyrics I write about the shitty live I've lived and how pissed off it made me when people mocked me. If I try to be cool and write anything fancier than that I'd just be a fake. I'm not good at kanji and can't write good but that's who I am. Sometimes it's hard to write. That's probably my karma."
How would you spend a day off?
"I like places that aren't quite so bright. But aside from that, as long as there are cute girls there, that's all that matters. I'm stuck spending every day locked up with three dudes, none of whom are really my type and it's pretty stifling. So I'd really like to hook up with a cute girl, get something nice to eat, have a few drinks. When things start getting heated up, we can smoke some shisha and chill. Then to close the rest of the distance between us, we could head out to a club or a bar and dance... and after that... I think we could maybe have a little bit of fun."
How would you spend a day off?
"I want to be alone. Talking to idiots all day is fucking exhausting. There's not a lot I have to do right now, so I kill time by making some tracks. Sometimes I'll spend some time digging around the sites of companies or organizations that might be interesting. If you have to ask how I do that, it'd be a waste of breath trying to explain it to some smooth-brain. Point is, it's better to spend time inside than going out. I can't relax any other way. I get pissed off being around idiots out in meatspace so it's way easier to just be in my room where I can do whatever I want. Interpersonal relationships are a total joke, so I'm not here to make friends. Also, what's the fucking point in doing this interview?"
