QUARTET NIGHT TNXXXX Duet Song Documentary Summary
I'll never find the time to make a full translation so here's a summary of the drama track documentary!! sorry if it has sloppy writing, I was re-listening to it and typing away as much as I could...
Chapter 1
QN are having a meeting about the upcoming concert. The solo songs are already done, and they want to do the group songs later, once they have a clear direction for the entire concert. Reiji suggests doing duet songs! The others agree that it's a good idea. To decide which pairings they should go for, they briefly go over every duet song they've already done. When Reiji mentions Non-Fiction, Ran & Myu immediately claim that they do NOT want to pair up. They then start provoking each other about it (C: "We're not on the same level" R: "Huh, you're just scared"), and Reiji tries to calm Ranmaru down. Ai does the same for Camus. So, Ranmaru says that they should go with these duos. Everyone likes the idea because it's the same combination as their first duets, so it'll be cool to see how much they've grown (also Ranmaru and Camus try to drag Reiji and Ai into their rivalry lmaoo). After that, they decide that the overall theme should be "call and response," so the fans can participate in the songs too.
Chapter 2
Reiji and Ranmaru's first meeting for their song. They want to find a good call for all the my girls and my boys~ to include the audience as much as possible and make them yell. Ranmaru wants a sound that comes from the stomach. They spend a whole minute making woo! woa! wOAR! WOY! sounds until they find the right one and high-five. (Btw, there's a high-five in every single chapter, "group that doesn't get along," you're not fooling anyone)
Chapter 3
Same thing with Ai and Camus. They want to find the best way to express their love for the fans, because an idol is someone that is loved and loves back. Ai thinks of a kiss, so he literally makes a kiss sound and asks Camus to do the same.
Chapter 4
While Reiji and Ranmaru are working on the lyrics, Reiji laughs to himself and reminisces about the first time they did a duet song together, back when they didn't know each other very well. Ranmaru adds that back then, he didn't really want to be an idol, to which Reiji responds that it was the opposite for him. He was really enthusiastic about his work, even if there were times when he wasn't sure if he should continue. He started as a child actor, had his ups and downs, but still strived to survive in the industry. Then, he got to be a part of QN, which gave him so many new paths he couldn't have found on his own. Ranmaru stays quiet. Reiji continues and says that it was like they shone a light on his future, made him really happy, and reminded him that he loved being an idol after all. And that feeling hasn't changed, even if he was never sure how far they could go, or when they would reach their limit. That's why the upcoming concert is really important to him. Ranmaru gives Reiji a very strong slap on the back, and tells him to focus on the current song (rather than when this could all end, I'm assuming). They both laugh and Reiji says that Ranmaru has a strength of mind that he's always admired. To him, Ranmaru is really reliable and has helped him so much. Ranmaru brushes off the compliments and says that worrying or feeling lost isn't a bad thing, it means that there's room for growth. What's important is the choices you make, because life is just an amalgamation of all your choices. They conclude that they'll be the ones to choose their own lives.
Chapter 5
Back to Ai and Camus. Ai notes that the song is quite different from Camus's usual vibe, and Camus answers that it opens a new door for him and he'll do whatever is asked of him if it's to please the fans. He talks about how he ended up becoming an idol: if his past self knew that he'd be working as an idol in a foreign country, he'd be really surprised. A lot of things have changed, be it his surroundings or Camus himself. He recalls that back in his homeland, he didn't have any real friends, and he couldn't even consider his own family as allies. Ai gets up and hugs him!! It's so cute that I made subtitles for this scene here. Ai says that he'd also like to hug all of their fans, but that's impossible, so they agree to put that feeling into the song instead. When they finish up, Camus confesses that Ai is really important to him, and Ai says he feels the same way.
Chapter 6
Ran to the Rei recording. Ranmaru is wondering about what he actually wants to do in life, then Reiji appears and tackles him (lol) Ran says that the recording session is going great, which makes Reiji happy. He comments that this ROCKIN song suits Ranmaru. That makes Ranmaru get stuck on the word "rock." He talks about how, unlike Reiji, he never set out to be an idol, and still doesn't think he's right for the job. Reiji asks him if he'd rather be in a band like in the past, but Ranmaru says no. Reiji goes on a little monologue about how you can't change the past, and that's why it's easy to have regrets, or to wonder if you should have done something differently. He asks Ranmaru if he's worried that he's not giving it his all as an idol. Ranmaru hesitates, so Reiji says he doesn't have to answer. Ranmaru simply says that his desire to sing has never changed. Reiji then does an imitation of Ran's voice with what he said in chapter 4, "just focus on the current song" and that makes him laugh. Reiji also adds that he might he might find the answer to his worries during the upcoming concert.
Chapter 7
God Love Keihou Hatsurei recording. Ai says that singing this song makes him wonder about love. The more you like someone, the more you want to know about them, and the more you want them to know about you. Camus says that that's a natural outcome when you become close. Ai asks him what he would think if someone was hiding a secret from a person they loved at lot. They can't tell them the truth, because it wouldn't solve anything, and they're scared of what would happen if the truth was out. It could suddenly create a rift between them. Camus relates to the guilt of feeling like you're deceiving someone. But he laughs (I got a heart attack) and says that everyone has secrets, including himself and all their fans. Sometimes there's no point in trying to know everything about someone, what's important is to understand each other and keep moving forward together. But it's true that you can become more and more greedy the deeper you fall in love. However, that's just how humans are, and it's a proof of love. Ai thanks Camus, but Camus replies that he only stated the obvious, and that Ai's voice is absolutely necessary for this song. So Ai declares that he'll try to convey the feeling "I'll love you forever" through the song. (I didn't run out of steam or anything, the last three tracks are under 2 minutes so there's not much to say)
Chapter 8
Reiji and Ranmaru are exhausted after the recording, and comment that the staging is going to be pretty difficult, but they want to perform in a way that'll surprise Ai and Camus. Ranmaru reminds Reiji that he'll need to work out to be strong enough for the live, and Reiji is like "Uhh, I just remembered I have to leave, byyyeeee!!" and the track ends with Ranmaru running after him.
Chapter 9
Ai and Camus are finished recording. Ai thinks that the "chu~" in Myu's low voice is impressive, considering the gap between that and his usual image. Camus takes it as a compliment. They bring up the fact that during the performance, they have to find a way to get as close to the audience as possible (I wonder what that will entail lol).
Chapter 10
Reiji claps for the group to congratulate them on finishing the duet songs, and Ai says they sound better than he could have imagined. They all discuss how they have to make this the best show ever, they can't wait to see the fans, etc!
