“We are… WACK BOYZ!” – Watanabe Junnosuke
Here we are for the last time. The boys woke up at the same time as usual.
We got some early morning footage of Rin’s room after Ryousei went to wake him up too. Rin gets his own room because he’s underage and having him on the live footage of them sleeping would break child labor laws. Also he deserves his own room.
Then came the marathon. Another relay.
This road in Niigata has a lot of rocks with eyes painted on them. Not weird.
The relay could only start once the boys finished licking lollipops and dissolving them in their mouths. They weren’t allowed to bite them or outright swallow them. Most of them decided to spin them around really fast like they were twirling a spinning top but Narutoworld… seemed to know what he was doing with his tongue.
For the love of god please call me.
After the second half of the relay, the results were
- C Ecchichichiichiichii and Hanagemonster
- B new and Tasukukusu
- D Kokorozashi Atsuwo and Washi Ga Dockson
- A Yakosei and A Anjukia
- WACK BOYZ Shunji, Ryousei, Rin
- E Yatto the Endou and Narutoworld
After was breakfast and they managed to eat it relatively quickly. From the table gossip, we learned that
- Rin likes 2nd generation BiS, and started smiling a lot when they were mentioned
- So does Ecchi, he likes Kika
- Naruto likes NCT
- Yakosei likes One Direction
- Atsuwo likes Kanjani Eight
Ryousei took a while once again, taking almost an hour with a few bites of egg and salmon skin, and talked more about why he’s slow with food. He mentioned last audition that he injured his stomach trying to drop too quickly to 50kg to get better at boat racing, but here he expanded on it a little more. He’d always been a very light eater but for this, he even measured out the portions of water he was consuming, ate only high protein foods and spent a lot of time at the gym and sauna trying to maintain that weight. But he never complains and is always polite with the staff and everyone around him when he eats. Plus, his mother always makes him small portions of meals to take with him to eat over the course of the day whenever he has to go to idol practice.
We will always be supporting.
Then afterwards, practice time.
And then
Performance time.
There’s a slight freeze in the video that was on their end and not ours so um. Sorry about that! We can’t fix it.
We’ll leave you to draw your own conclusions. Everybody worked hard, some flubbed their lines more than others but most importantly, everyone made it fun.
And then
We had to wait for about 10 minutes while Watanabe deliberated off camera.
AND THEN.
- new passed
- Ecchichichiichiichii passed
- Yatto the Endou passed
- Hanagemonster passed
So not passing are Naruto, Task, Anjukia, Washi, Atsuwo, Yakosei. They all worked very hard.
After some “thank you” speeches, Watanabe then had the usual “insane end of audition” announcement.
Such a rascaly expression.
The announcement was that he would be founding WACK WEST, a branch of the company based in the Kansai region of Japan. The WACK BOYZ will be based out of Osaka.
“We are… WACK BOYZ!”
Then afterwards… there’s no way for words to do this justice. Just watch it.
Thank you for staying with us for another four days of men once again. Our translators were Rachel Raisehell and Đorđe no Jinsei. Writing was left to Kintama Callie.
After everything, the official WACK BOYZ Twitter account opened. So whatever happens next, you’ll be able to see there.
going going WACK
