The Serious Pair in Arashi - 2008-2016

From TV 2008:

M: We wanted to have words that feature dream and reality. We were asked to propose the words. I said I wanted to use the word “dream” and Sakurai-kun said how about adding the word “alive.” So in the end we decided on Dream “A” Live.
O: None of my opinion got included.

From Japonism booklet 2015:

- Something that each of you are risking your life to challenge is?
S: It was really accidental but… Somehow for my next solo, I thought, maybe I should do this kinda thing, I agreed with what Matsujun suggested for me. It was decided quickly.
N: Is that so?
S: Yes. When I was talking with Matsujun about something entirely different, then it turned into that kind of conversation.

“Thinking, I want a personal point of view, I asked Sho-kun to rap.”

From The Television 2016:

Rap lyrics given to Matsumoto Jun, the untold story announcement!!

“This looks like a role Matsujun hadn’t done until now so a new side of him will be shown, I think. It must tough for those two, but do your best! The promotions for “99.9″ episode 1 and 2 were done for him, though (laughs)”

source 3:

I'm not very proud of it but 99.9 is also the only Matsujun work I've finished. Considering he's half of my OTP, it's definitely not a lot.
Then again, there are many Sho-kun works I haven't watched. And also, there are some I never managed to finish... I'm this type of fan after all. ่Œถใฎ้–“？ But that's not true either because I buy their stuff from time to time. I guess, I'm just a very my-pace type of fan. It took me 5 years to finally memorize their birthdays, apart from Aiba's. (It's petty but I'm actually very jealous of him lol)

Piano - 2012

From Monthly TV Guide 2012/09: The bond between the two: The studio where Matsumoto was filming Lucky Seven was next to the studio where Sakurai was filming Nazotoki wa Dinner no Ato de SP. Sakurai visited Lucky Seven’s studio and gave Matsumoto a candle. To Matsumoto who lit the candle, and Sakurai happily remarked, “ It’s Candle Jun! ” For these two who seem mature, it’s a charming episode. M->S I want Sho-kun to hold a piano recital one day. I don’t remember when was the last time I heard him play the piano, but I remember when we were doing a shoot in a wedding hall, there was a pipe organ and he started playing it. I’ve heard his stories about playing the piano before that, but that was the first time I heard him play… I can’t play the piano so I when I hear him play, I think, “How nice.” His form playing the piano at last year’s Kouhaku Uta Gassen also left an impression. If he ever holds a recital, I’ll definitely come. I feel like it really will be a reality. S->M Lately ...

Kindness - 2012

From Gekkan Television 2012/04/25: Sakumoto making breakfast for the corner Gekkan Arashi. S: If it's alright with you, please try eating my omelettes. M: Omelettes are delicious~. Let me try... Delicious! S: Really? M: This kind of taste is popular. S: Really? Finally it's here, my period of popularity. But, isn't it a little bit salty? (Laughs) M: There's cheese inside, right? That's (where the) saltiness (comes from). S: That makes sense! Certainly, if you take out the saltiness that comes from the cheese, it will be about just right, maybe. M: Ah, but this taste, I like it! When I want a big breakfast, I prefer this type of food with strong taste. It's very delicious. S: So kind~ (cries) M: I would like to eat that French toast as well. S: Please, go ahead! Source
