BEAT UP. The biggest injury you’ve sustained so far.

Tora: I haven’t had any major injuries yet, I don’t think.*

Hiroto: When I think of beat-up, I think of Tora’s feet. Tora: I’m always barefoot during lives, so yeah, they get all scraped up. The soles of my feet have gotten really tough lately, I didn’t even feel it when I stepped on some broken glass at home.

Hiroto: They’ve lost their sensitivity, huh.

Nao: Isn’t that just being insensitive? (laugh)

Saga: When I was in a youth baseball league, I threw the balls so hard over time I got like ‘baseball elbow.’ My bones stuck out so much I looked like an alien. Oh, but I got a story you’ve never heard, it’ll move you. There was one time, I was in a lot of pain but stuck it out as the pitcher, and we ended up winning the match!

Nao: Weren’t you just a fill-in? (laugh)
