Note: Okay, my Japanese exchange student translated this for me, but she’s only had three and a half years of English, so I had to rephrase what she said sometimes… I can’t vouch that everything is right or accurate, and not everything in this interview is translated, but the general topics of conversation are covered for the most part.
Also, just to make it somewhat easier to keep track of while you read, I’ve put down the speaker as both the character and the seiyuu (voice actor/actress).
Usagi/ Mitsuishi Kotono: (walking up the street, says to camera) Good afternoon everyone! (waves) I’m Mitsuishi Kotono, and I play the voice of Tsukino Usagi. Today is a holiday, so I came here to visit… (pauses, sniffs the air) Something smells very good, and I’m getting hungry. (sneaks up to house, peers cautiously through the window)
(Inside, the seiyuu of Nephrite, Zoisite, and Kunzite sit inside on a long, L-shaped (somewhat) sofa while Jadeite’s seiyuu stands farther back on the outside porch)
Zoisite/ Nanba Keiichi: Delicious!
Usagi/ Mitsuishi Kotono: (ducks back down below window level, whispers) What are the Shitennou doing here? (anxious look) But it smells so good inside!
(Zoisite/ Nanba Keiichi is saying something to Nephrite/ Mori Katsuji)
Kunzite/ Sogabe Kazuyuki: (sits up suddenly as Usagi/ Mitsuishi Kotono peers over the window ledge again) Who’s there?!?
Usagi/ Mitsuishi Kotono: What? (stutters something as Nephrite/ Mori Katsuji and Zoisite/ Nanba Keiichi also turn to look at her)
Zoisite/ Nanba Keiichi: Why are you watching this room?
Usagi/ Mitsuishi Kotono: (still stuttering) What…
Zoisite/ Nanba Keiichi: Wait! Stop right there! (puts down his plate of food, rushes outside. Camera view changes to an indoor point of view. At the window, looking that them, Jadeite/ Onosaka Masaya approaches with a shishkabob) Wait!
Jadeite/ Onosaka Masaya: (approaches others gathered at window) Your name is…SAILORMOON! (dramatically shoves the shishkabob at them)
Zoisite/ Nanba Keiichi: Eh? (thanks Jadeite/ Onosaka Masaya as he takes something off of shishkabob and takes a bite)
Kunzite/ Sogabe Kazuyuki: (to Usagi/ Mitsuishi Kotono) You’re brave to come here alone.
(Usagi/ Mitsuishi Kotono says something in response)
Zoisite/ Nanba Keiichi: We are the Shitennou! If you’re really Sailor Moon, then you should be able to transform.
Jadeite/ Onosaka Masaya:That’s right! (says something else)
Usagi/ Mitsuishi Kotono: (whines, pretends to cry)
Nephrite/ Mori Katsuji: Don’t bully her, it’s a holiday today.
Jadeite/ Onosaka Masaya, Zoisite/ Nanba Keiichi, Kunzite/ Sogabe Kazuyuki: (in disbelief, sequentially) Eh?
Nephrite/ Mori Katsuji: (to Usagi/ Misuishi Kotono) You want tapioca?
Usagi/ Mitsuishi Kotono: Mm! (enthusiastic nod)
Zoisite/ Nanba Keiichi: (to Nephrite/ Mori Katsuji) You’re too kind to her.
Usagi/ Mitsuishi Kotono: (replies)
Zoisite/ Nanba Keiichi: (to Jadeite/ Onosaka Masaya, holding up his piece of shishkabob) This is burned.
Jadeite/ Onosaka Masaya: Oh, I’m sorry.
(Everyone is inside the living room. There is the L-shaped sofa and a table in the middle with food on it.)
Zoisite/ Nanba Keiichi: Okay, make yourself comfortable. (waves Usagi/ Mitsuishi Kotono to a place on the sofa) What do you want to eat?
Usagi/ Mitsuishi Kotono: This food looks delicious! I’ll have sazai.
(Note: Sazai is a clam-type shelled food)
Zoisite/ Nanba Keiichi: Sazai. (puts one on a plate for Usagi/ Mitsuishi Kotono)
Usagi/ Mitsuishi Kotono: Shrimp, and the meat, and sazai.
(Zoisite/ Nanba Keiichi repeats each of her requests as she says them, also picking up the food from the center table. He hands a full plate to Usagi/ Mitsuishi Kotono.)
Zoisite/ Nanba Keiichi: Here, please help yourself.
Usagi/ Mitsuishi Kotono: It looks delicious.
Nephrite/ Mori Katsuji: Hey, where is Naru-chan?
All except Nephrite/ Mori Katsuji: (together) EH???
Boxed words: Holiday of the Shitennou
(The five seiyuu are sitting inside on the sofa, eating. From left to right, they sit: Jadeite/ Onosaka Masaya, Nephrite/ Mori Katsuji, Kunzite/ Sogabe Kazuyuki, Usagi/ Mitsuishi Kotono, and Zoisite/ Nanba Keiichi)
(shots of the food, the corn, and the shelled sazai)
(Note: There are a lot of random comments made, and I couldn’t get this part translated much.)
Nephrite/ Mori Katsuji: Delicious.
Usagi/ Mitsuishi Kotono: (giggles)
Zoisite/ Nanba Keiichi: The food is hot.
(Kunzite/ Sogabe Kazuyuki, Nephrite/ Mori Katsuji, and Jadeite/ Onosaka Masaya are talking about the Shitennou and something about the barbeque. Usagi/ Mitsuishi Kotono is laughing her head off silently, and Zoisite/ Nanba Keiichi is watching. ^_^ )
(Note: Okay, I couldn’t get this next scene at all since Kana (my Japanese exchange student) says that she couldn’t understand what they were discussing. Either that, or she didn’t know how to translate it. All I get is that Usagi/ Mitsuishi Kotono laughs at one point, and they mention something about this barbeque.)
(All are outside, gathered around the grill on the porch. Jadeite/ Onosaka Masaya is frying the noodles on the grill, and passes out a helping to each person.)
Unknown: I want to eat sazai.
Unknown: I can’t wait to eat.
(Nephrite/ Mori Katsuji is about to eat, but Jadeite/ Onosaka Masaya stops him)
Jadeite/ Onosaka Masaya: I want to put cabbage in there, so don’t eat it yet.
(Nephrite/ Mori Katsuji starts eating a moment later)
Jadeite/ Onosaka Masaya: You’re like a beast.
(Jadeite/ Onosaka Masaya is passing out the noodles to Zoisite/ Nanba Keiichi. Usagi/ Mitsuishi Kotono puts her plate out, but Jadeite/ Onosaka Masaya ignores it and serves Nephrite/ Mori Katsuji, who just pushed in front of her.)
Jadeite/ Onosaka Masaya: (to Zoisite/ Nanba Keiichi) This is my special recipe. Usually, we put cabbage into it, but today I used green pepper instead. (As he’s explaining, he uses the spatula to pick out the green pepper)
Zoisite/ Nanba Keiichi: I don’t think this recipe is so special. It seems pretty normal to me.
(Everyone is sitting on the sofa inside the house, having finished eating. They sit in this order: Usagi/ Mitsuishi Kotono sits on the very right, then Jadeite/ Onosaka Masaya, then Nephrite/ Mori Katsuji, then Zoisite/ Nanba Keiichi, and Kunzite/ Sogabe Kazuyuki on the far left.)
Usagi/ Mitsuishi Kotono: (To camera) The Shitennou are all here. Let’s ask them what they do on the holidays. (To Shitennou) Introduce yourselves.
Jadeite/ Onosaka Masaya: I’m the voice of Jadeite, Onosaka Masaya. I like driving my car.
Usagi/ Mitsuishi Kotono: Driving?
Jadeite/ Onosaka Masaya: Driving. (nods)
Usagi/ Mitsuishi Kotono: Anything else?
Jadeite/ Onosaka Masaya: I’m beginning to play golf.
Usagi/ Mitsuishi Kotono: But golf is expensive to play, isn’t it?
Jadeite/ Onosaka Masaya: I don’t think so.
Usagi/ Mitsuishi Kotono: Really?
Jadeite/ Onosaka Masaya: Only the equipment is expensive.
Usagi/ Mitsuishi Kotono: Ah.
Nephrite/ Mori Katsuji: I’m the voice of Nephrite, Mori Katsuji. On the holidays, I like to use the computer.
Usagi/ Mitsuishi Kotono: Is that right?
Nephrite/ Mori Katsuji: (nods)
Usagi/ Mitsuishi Kotono: Is it difficult to use?
Nephrite/ Mori Katsuji: I don’t think so. Actually, I began to use it because Tuxedo Kamen said to me jokingly, “Don’t you use a computer?”
Usagi/ Mitsuishi Kotono: Ah, I see.
Zoisite/ Nanba Keiichi: I’m the voice of Umino Gurio…and Zoisite. I am Nanba Keiichi.
Usagi/ Mitsuishi Kotono: Yeah! (giggle)
Zoisite/ Nanba Keiichi: (says something in a distorted, exaggerated voice)
Usagi/ Mitsuishi Kotono: Is it strange to do these two voices?
Zoisite/ Nanba Keiichi: No, it isn’t. On the holidays, I just sleep.
Usagi/ Mitsuishi Kotono: Do you like to play golf?
Zoisite/ Nanba Keiichi: Sometimes I play tennis, and sometimes golf.
Kunzite/ Sogabe Kazuyuki: I’m the voice of Kunzite, Sogabe Kazuyuki. I don’t leave my house very often on the holidays. I play the guitar or read books. Do you think I’m interesting?
(Usagi/ Mitsuishi Kotono now has her camera out, and a small square box showing her camera view appears in the lower right hand corner as she asks her question. The box is titled: “Usagi’s Camera”.)
(Note: There’s more discussion going on in this next part that I didn’t get to have translated, but as I said, the main ideas should be there.)
Usagi/ Mitsuishi Kotono: What is difficult to play about villains?
Zoisite/ Nanba Keiichi: We’re not bad guys. The people watching us only think we’re bad, but we’re really good.
(Jadeite/ Onosaka Masaya says something about believing in justice)
Nephrite/ Mori Katsuji: We’re from the Dark Kingdom.
Zoisite/ Nanba Keiichi: We work hard. Do you understand? (laughs)
Nephrite/ Mori Katsuji: Usually, the villains are not handsome. Lately however, the villains have become cool and good-looking.
Kunzite/ Sogabe Kazuyuki: Now we villains can be popular too.
Usagi/ Mitsuishi Kotono: Do you have an episode you remember strongly?
Jadeite/ Onosaka Masaya: (to other Shitennou) You guys know how you say “Queen Beryl-sama?” Let’s see how you say it.
Nephrite/ Mori Katsuji: Queen Beryl-sama.
Zoisite/Nanba Keiichi: Queen Beryl-sama.
Kunzite/ Sogabe Kazuyuki: Queen Beryl-sama.
Jadeite/ Onosaka Masaya: I think it’s difficult to pronounce.
Nephrite/ Mori Katsuji, Zoisite/ Nanba Keiichi, Kunzite/ Sogabe Kazuyuki: No it isn’t.
Jadeite/ Onosaka Masaya: I can’t say it right. I messed up on it three times.
Nephrite/ Mori Katsuji: Say it fast.
Jadeite/ Onosaka Masaya: (slowly) Queen Beryl-sama.
Nephrite/ Mori Katsuji: Try again.
Jadeite/ Onosaka Masaya: (again, slowly) Queen Beryl-sama.
(Everyone laughs.)
Zoisite/ Nanba Keiichi: Are you okay? How come you can’t say it fast? (goes over to Jadeite/ Onosaka Masaya and ruffles his hair while Jadeite/ Onosaka Masaya tries to push him away.)
Nephrite/ Mori Katsuji: My death was the most dramatic one of the Shitennou.
Jadeite/ Onosaka Masaya: Mine wasn’t so great. I just disappeared quickly. (Asks Zoisite/ Nanba Keiichi about Zoisite’s death.)
Usagi/ Mitsuishi Kotono: Yeah, Nephrite’s death was dramatic, but Zoisite’s death wasn’t as good.
Zoisite/ Nanba Keiichi: What? …Alright, I know my death wasn’t as dramatic. I don’t need you to say it.
Jadeite/ Onosaka Masaya: How did you die?
Kunzite/ Sogabe Kazuyuki: Queen Beryl killed him. I cried “Zoisaito” as he died.
Zoisite/ Nanba Keiichi: It was sad but good.
(Jadeite/ Onosaka Masaya asks about the relationship between Zoisite and Kunzite.)
Kunzite/ Sogabe Kazuyuki: In the original Sailormoon manga, Zoisite loved Kunzite, but Kunzite didn’t seem to love him back. However, in the anime, Zoisite and Kunzite do love each other.
Zoisite/ Nanba Keiichi: At the beginning of the anime, it looks like their relationship was one-sided, that only Zoisite loved Kunzite, but that’s not true since we later see that Kunzite really does love Zoisite.
Nephrite/ Mori Katsuji: (to Usagi/ Mitsuishi Kotono) What kind of character do you like in men the most?
Usagi/ Mitsuishi Kotono: I like nice, strong, interesting men.
Zoisite/ Nanba Keiichi: I think she loves me…
(Everyone laughs)
Usagi/ Mitsuishi Kotono: I like Nephrite-san and Kunzite-san’s characters the best.
Jadeite/ Onosaka Masaya: No, she likes me the most.
Usagi/ Mitsuishi Kotono: (to Jadeite/ Onosaka Masaya) I’m sorry, I simply like their characters better, especially Nephrite’s. I don’t hate you, but your character is low ranking.
Jadeite/ Onosaka Masaya: Yeah, I seem low ranking compared to everyone else.
Nephrite/ Mori Katsuji: Jadeite is the least powerful leader of the Dark Kingdom. The others are his seniors.
Usagi/ Mitsuishi Kotono: (to Jadeite/ Onosaka Masaya) So are you just a small leader in the show?
Zoisite/ Nanba Keiichi: We’re called the Shitennou, which sounds strong. But Jadeite is different from the rest of us because his rank seems lower.
Usagi/ Mitsuishi Kotono: (to the camera) Let’s see who they like best of the senshi.
Jadeite/ Onosaka Masaya: I don’t want to say because you are Sailor Moon.
Usagi/ Mitsuishi Kotono: Oh, don’t mind me.
Jadeite/ Onosaka Masaya: I like Rei because she is sexy and always wears high heels.
Usagi/ Mitsuishi Kotono: (discusses high heels with Jadeite/ Onosaka Masaya for a moment before turning to Nephrite/ Mori Katsuji) Mori-san, you like…?
Nephrite/ Mori Katsuji: I like Naru-chan.
Usagi/ Mitsuishi Kotono: Naru-chan?
Nephrite/ Mori Katsuji: Naru-chan.
Jadeite/ Onosaka Masaya: But she’s not a senshi.
Usagi/ Mitsuishi Kotono: (giggles)
Nephrite/ Mori Katsuji: Well, of the senshi, I like Ami-chan. She is always cool and smart.
Usagi/ Mitsuishi Kotono: I see. And you love Naru-chan.
Zoisite/ Nanba Keiichi, Jadeite/ Onosaka Masaya: Yeah, we see.
Usagi/ Mitsuishi Kotono: Alright, Nanba-sama. Nanba-sama?
Zoisite/ Nanba Keiichi: (exaggerated, distorted voice) Of course, my favorite character is Usagi, or Sailor Moon! (whispers) She will get angry if I don’t say this, so I have to say that Sailormoon is my favorite character! (laughs)
Usagi/ Mitsuishi Kotono: (turns to Kunzite/ Sogabe Kazuyuki)
Kunzite/ Sogabe Kazuyuki: I like Usagi-chan, but I also like Rei.
Zoisite/ Nanba Keiichi: (to Kunzite/ Sogabe Kazuyuki) You should say you like Sailormoon/Usagi-san the best! She will surely get angry!
Usagi/ Mitsuishi Kotono: (to Shitennou seiyuu) Please give a message to the viewers.
Nephrite/ Mori Katsuji: We have already died, but Sailor Moon will remain in an active role. She will continue having challenging battles, and fighting new enemies. Please keep watching the show.
All: Nice to meet you.
Zoisite/ Nanba Keiichi: (sweetly) Nice to meet you. (blows a kiss) Don’t forget Gurio!
Usagi/ Mitsuishi Kotono: (stands alone, speaks to camera) Everyone, how was our interview? The Shitennou go driving, play golf, and sleep on the holidays. I also sleep and stay home like them sometimes. Perhaps those activities are not the best way to use your time, so you, the viewer, should use your holidays better. Bye bye!
