On this New Year's special edition of Popper’s★Lounge, please welcome the faces of Pop’n themselves as our next guests! |
 |
Happy New Year! Did everyone have their first dream of the year? I'm Mimi! |
 |
Happy New Year! Did you win the lottery? I’m Nyami! |
 |
Welcome Mimi and Nyami. We’re so glad you made enough time in your busy schedules to be here. Okay, let’s start with the questions. “How did you two meet?” |
 |
We first met at the Pop'n Music auditions. |
 |
Somehow we both made it to the final round, and we ended up forming a duo. |
 |
Not the most exciting story, is it? |
 |
The next question is, "What do you two think of each other's personalities and hobbies?” |
 |
Nyami's the best! She’s very talented and I love how masculine she is♥ |
 |
Thanks! Mimi has the best personality~♥ |
 |
Masculine!? |
 |
She means her personality, Judy. |
 |
Oh, really? Had me scared for a second. This next question asks, “Have you two ever had a fight?” |
 |
We’ve had our disagreements but nothing major. I try not to get into fights anyway. |
 |
With how riled up I can get; I could be brawl leader*. |
 |
Brawl leader? The Japanese language is very deep. |
 |
I think you’re just confused by the weird vocabulary of these two, Judy. |
 |
Okay, next question. “What kind of TV shows do you two appear on? Do you two sing as well?” |
 |
It’s a show with all sorts of things. Its got dialogue, singing, tears, face-to-face action, generous donations from viewers, and more drama than you could ever ask for! |
 |
It's more like a variety show. We invite guests and have fun! In a way, it’s kinda like Popper’s Lounge. |
 |
And it’s not one of those shows competing for the timeslot if that’s anything! |
 |
Of course we both sing, too~ We’re idols, after all! |
 |
Wow! You guys really do everything! We’ve been getting a lot of questions asking, “Are two long braids hard to maintain?” |
 |
I leave it up to the hair and makeup artists~ They do a great job! |
 |
I do hair treatments every day and try to get 12 hours of sleep. |
 |
Mimi, you're full of lies. |
 |
Huh? I’m telling the truth! A girl’s hair is the most important thing! |
 |
I'm more curious about how Mary takes care of her hair. Well, okay. Next question! “It’s hard to tell, but do you have a tail?” |

 |
That’s secret. Super secret. |
 |
This question asks, “Who is Nyami's darling? Do you usually call Timer "darling"?” |
 |
Of course she does! I’m really proud of her for it. With how idol culture is, it’s really hard to do that kind of stuff. |
 |
Why are you answering, Mimi? |
 |
I know how shy you can get when talking about this, so I answered for you. Friends have each other’s backs, right? |
 |
I'm so lucky to have someone as thoughtful as you! Umm… let’s move on.
What’s that question you have there? “Is there anyone else you are friends with?” |
 |
(She totally dodged the question…) Are you good friends with Uncle Jam? |
 |
Uncle Jam and I play Beatmania a lot! I always win the battles. |
 |
Other than that, Timer, flea market friends... I play a lot of games with Dino.... |
 |
But we're basically friends with everyone. |
 |
Yeah! Love & Peace♥ |
 |
Then, "Who are your rivals?" |
 |
P-1&P-2? Their intense retorts seem genuine. |
 |
Pretty? Only because we’re both rabbits. |
 |
“How do you spend your days off?” |
 |
I usually go to the amusement park! I think the roller coasters are a lot of fun! |
 |
I'm either playing with my pets at home or playing Pop’n at the arcade. |
 |
And finally, "A word to the fans!" |
 |
Whether you're a beginner, light popper, or heavy popper, we're always waiting for you to join our Pop'n Party! Come on out and have fun! |
 |
Thank you for playing with us! Let's all continue to have fun with Pop’n and aim for 3000 years! |

 |
Ciao♥ |
 |
Mimi, Nyami, we look forward to working with you more this year. Please come back soon! |
