Press conference for Takki’s recital ONE! ~ THE HISTORY OF TACKEY ~ was held 2 days ago. He looks really good in the clips wor, especially during the closeups~~ Here are just 2 screencaps out of the numerous I’ve freezed framed lol~
Snuffles posted some points that she got from various online articles.
- Takki said how even children can have history when they experience deaths in the family or divorces etc. For himself, his parents divorced when he was still really young.
- Takki was born on a hospital bench. Apparently by the time his mum reached the hospital, all the delivery rooms happened to be full. So they had no choice but to set up for emergency delivery on the bench.
- He will be shown dying as an old man at a park bench (this part I don’t really get it too. Aren’t they only telling his ‘history’, meaning Takki from birth to 24 yrs old?)
- Times were hard after the divorce. He was brought up by his mother and financial situation wasn’t exactly good. His mother used to make gyoza (fried dumplings) with tuna instead of pork cos they didn’t have enough money but Takki was apparently too little to tell the difference then.
- He took one week to write a report about his life, together with inputs from his mother, before submitting it to Johnny Kitagawa.
- Takki said he couldn’t really accept it when his mother remarried and he had to change his surname to “Takizawa” (sou desu ne~ so I guess that’s where his birth name fits in? So… all along we were calling him based on his stepdad’s name! So weird…)
- Although it sounds dark, the recital will not be simply sad and gloomy. Takki just wants to let people know what go through children’s thoughts when they experience events like divorce. And in this way, sends out a message to lonely children and (single) parents, assuring them that they are not alone in this and thus giving them some courage and light. It will show happy moments in Takki’s life too.
- 1st part of show will be about Takki’s history. 2nd part will be about the current man that he is, and showcases the illusions that he learnt during his stint in Vegas.
My japanese is hopeless so I had to snag it almost-wholesale from Snuffles’ blog (Arigatou, Snuffles!). It’s really touching reading it ne… I wish I can see the recital too… *sulks*

arigato! the ZOOMIN clip on LAKYNIU’s was refusing to d/l (v___v;)
yayayay~~ nice screencaps btw~ T__T i cant make them on my comp right now so thanx for doing all of us a favor! LOL
erm…sry for making a double post! vv
but about [MS], i downloaded the whole MS show…and there wasnt much after the opening + the performance. Tsubie left not long after another groups perf…and then there were a few seconds where they zoomed in on Takki’s face (the Daniel Powter talk portion)…and thats basically it vv.
honestly, [MS] is my least fav. show — its just tooooo boring! LOL T&T look bored in it too!! HAHA~
arigato bonnie for telling me about the MS show~ I was dling halfway and it’s taking so long. after reading ur comment, i stopped the dl and deleted the file haha~~ my clubbox is most of the time at 0%… so frustrating rite?
MS and Utawara was boring, the best are the Zubari and Utaban ones. Heyx3 would be good if there’re eng subs :)
i’m dling zubari eng subbed now (only 9kb/s), and hoping to download the TFP2 Satoken show too but the dl for those juz won’t start… 3 more hours to go b4 i knock off from work^^
Thanks for the report! I didn’t know Takki’s first name wasn’t even Takizawa either xD That IS so weird.
yeah i\’ve read rumors that it his name was supposed to b …. vv; NO. i just cant accept that! he seriously *LOOKS* too much like a \”Takizawa\” so i cant imagine him w/ any other name~~~ XDD
mahhh no prob~ it wouldve been a serious waste of ur time if u had continued the MS d/l
i agree w/ all of that!! lol but Zubari gets boring @ times too (like the Hosoki-san “fortune telling” parts. i get TOTALLY lost on those haha~)
btw~ ganbatte!! those d/ls will finish b4 u kno it! TFP2 was really cute~ (loved the velcro/song guessing sections of the show (HAHA ok i’ll shut up now b4 i spoil the whole thing) – and the Zubari (subs) were cool too ^___^
(mahhh gomen ne! i keep forgettin that its HTML so i have to always make double posts after making a *SQUINTing* smiley! sumimasen~~~)
Know what Mic-chan…I agree w/you re Takki’s ‘original’ last name. It does sound weird other than Takizawa-san, ne? Hmm…and didn’t know his parents were divored. Wow…reminds me of my close friend. She just went through a painful divorce and now she is a single-parent. Now her daughter is father-less. *so sad* She was living here in San Diego where I’m at but, now she moved back to her hometown of Minnesota. (She’s American Korean) I think she probably could relate to Takki’s situation.
Thankx for posting this recital translation. =) I will def copy/paste this onto Word for myself. lolz
haha. no prob, Bonnie! i’ve seen the music-guessing part only, from a clip i downloaded (from takkitsuba_rabu LJ i think). takki’s hands actions and expression was so super kawaii~ i might have a problem understanding hehe.. it’s still not even 1/2 way thru yet.. think i’ve to wait, and be more patient~~
hey reiko-chan, i think it’s hard on both the parents and the child in a divorce situation… seems like many celebs also go thru divorce when they’re young? chilam’s parents divorced too, but got back together after 13 yrs… so sweet ne….
i remember watching a music station 2002 clip (T&T promoting their debut album)~ in the clip, takki said that at first he didn’t get use to the name ‘takki’, and he said ‘because that is what my father is called’… lol. thinking back, he was talking about his stepdad~~
Tackey looks tired on this but *lmao* on the 1 pose…. *Tackey fone hoooome* XDDD
I’m sure this would be another great show. Well, it is expected of any Takizawa Hideaki shows deshou? Coz the zachou expects nothing less specially that it is his own life depicted on it ^_~ I wonder who’s playing Tackey papa and mama on it. They should cast a really good-looking couple there right?! ^^
I feel the same DiTHeRs, his eyes look tired, but he still looks realllly good~~ hehe.. yea, we need to know who’s takki(hem)papa & mama, and his siblings too ya? and who to act as kid!takki~~ how about kid!tsubasa? lolz..
Michelle~~~ Like Reiko-chan will know who is Chilam??? LMAOO~~~ Or does she??? Do you, Reiko??
Anyway, about Takki being called Takki.. from what i THOUGHT i heard.. i may be wrong, he said he felt weird being called Takki at first cos that’s what the people from his (step)dad’s office call him??
haha.. snuffles, i think she does coz i told her b4 haha…
yea, takki mentioned it on music station 2002… i have a clip which was recorded from channel 8 (goggles) lolz~~ with eng subs. but he juz said tat his (step)dad was called that, he din mention that it’s his ‘stepdad’ or that it was in the ‘office’.
No i meant, the people at the office/company called Takki “Takki”, not called his stepdad “Takki”.
Chilam ne.. reminds me.. I MISSED THE SECOND LAST EPISODE OF “Point of no Return”!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! *bangs head on wall* The most CLIMATIC epi somemore…. stuuuppiiiiiid unreliable cousin lah!!! never record for me. RAR!!
Then again, im getting more and more unsure… but i really TOT i heard that that nickname was used on himself, not his dad. Bwaah… whatever. Takki is Takizawa Hideaki now. :)
oic.. it’s getting more confusing lolz!!! haha.. but he IS takizawa hideaki now so that’s all that matters rite. I think “TAKKI” suits him la, sounds quite cute ma :)
oh ya, PONR juz ended its run on TV rite? lolz. come to tink of it, actually i have an extra set of discs burnt from rmvb that i purchased from someone yrs back when the drama was juz released. some fan asked me to help her buy but end up not taking it lor :( it’s in cantonese~~ if u want, i can give u the whole set wor (actually i’m thinking of a way to dispose of that too la)
i want to watch but Cantonese??? Wakaranaaaiiii…. And i only want to watch the last 2nd epi, which i tink will be on Youtube soon. Someone’s uploading. So thanks for the offer! =)
haha… ya, now youtube got loads of dramas liaoz~~
Snuffles, yes, I know who Chilam is. lol Michelle gave me the jist of who he is. =)
Oh.thank youfor your translation about “ONE” .Many things about him I don’t know before.Sometimes i used to want to quiz and see his family.I think I know his feeling cause same situation with me.>
