Seriously Ryo I was WORKING

Okay here we go
#stayhome
A thread https://twitter.com/ryonishikido_jp/status/1248146745516625920

Jin: It’s been five years, this kind of program-ish... thing...
Ryo: Huh?
Jin: WILL U STOP THAT

Lol Jin fumbles
Jin: Just till I get used to this—just till— ugh this is the worst

They’re like what do we do??? Ryo says they should begin with a ‘okay we’re starting!’ Kinda feeling and Jin’s like and Ryo’s kinda big brother bullyish SHOULD I DO IT THEN and he does lol

With Ryo in Tokyo and Jin in America (and with corona and all) they thought of doing something esp. with their scheduled live getting canceled

Jin: Yeahhhh but we really wanted to do it huh
Ryo: Yeah but we don’t know when things will calm down

Jin: Is this just for when everyone’s on a self-imposed quarantine?
Ryo: Dunno. Whaddyawant? If we don’t get views at all. Is that even possible?
Jin: Yeah but it’s not about the number of views anyway
(Lol Ryo is the one worried about views)
Ryo: What if we get only 2 digits?

Ryo: If it comes to that then let’s just quit!
Jin: If we get only 2-digit views yeah let’s stop
Ryo: Let’s stop EVERYTHING
Jin: ...even the company we made?
Ryo: (laughing) Yeah yeah yeah

J: Youtube has a comment section right
R: If you say it like that we’re gonna get bashed again, stop it
(Hahaha scaredy-cat)
J: Wonder if we can delete those tho
R: If we do then they’d be deleted but wouldn’t it be like running away?

LONG PAUSE

J: ...well let’s run away then
R: Should we~? (laughs)
J: Let’s, let’s, it’s kinda scary for me too

R: So there’s people who appear on TV, and be like they can totally be on/do Youtube, but isn’t it disrespectful for Youtubers to do it flippantly like that? So we should pay our respects and keep doing this even if we only get 2-digit views

J: But we can delete this if it gets risky
R: Well yeah if it comes to that, let’s run away, we’ll be like we’re quitting! We’re quitting!

They’re not even drinking and this is like drunken men talk lol

On choosing the channel name

Ryo: Akanishi, Nishikido. How ‘bout something like “Nishi-Nishi Channel?”

Also Ryo: UWA HAZUKASHII

J: It’s a good thing we have staff here too...

Staff suggestion: “Akanishiki Channel”
J: No, stop
R: That’s lame

“JRCH” (JinRyo Channel)
J: When I see JR I can only read it as Junior, but I guess feeling-wise it’s like ‘starting from here’
R: Maybe JR for now ‘s fine
J: SRSLY??
R: THEN SUGGEST SOMETHING

Married couple fight
R: Suggest something! When you start saying things like that, what the hell, we won’t get to decide this way
J: (falls silent) (drinks water)
R: DON’T IGNORE ME, YOU, I CAN SEE YOUR FACE U KNOW
J: Sorry sorry sorry
J: This is hard huh Ryo-chan

J: Atarashii... (new)
R: No stop, stop it with Atarashii, you, don’t you start saying stuff that don’t need to be said!

(LMAO most likely bc of Atarashii Chizu)

Suggestion: Jin&Ryo’s “Lonely” Channel
R: Who the hell suggested that?

Staff: “decide on a channel name and a plan for the next video”
J: If I say this it’ll feel like it’s decided
R: ‘s fine, say it
J: Personally doesn’t feel right for me but we can kinda use it. “Na no Channel.”
R: Why Na No?
J: N/A is Na. And no channel.

R: Isn’t that fine?
J: SEE, this is what I mean, I don’t like that! When you’re like, you get tired of stuff in the middle, I hate that!
R: Fine, Jin-san, how’s this?

“NO GOOD TV”

Jin:

Plans for the channel
- having another guest for a 3-person convo like calling a friend up suddenly

J: Till how many people do we do this for?
Staff: 100
J: Like a plan for making up to 100 friends?
Ryo, the person who has no friends: MURI DA YO

R: Should we make a jingle
J: Oh we’ll be more show-like that way
Staff bc they’re bullies: “make a jingle live”

More plan
- No Good TV logo making contest Jin vs Ryo
-calling up sponsors for their channel
-No Good TV theme song

Ryo imitates the way Youtuber(s) Nijiiro Samurai says “thanks for subscribing to our channel” lol he totally watches Youtubers huh

Another plan: English Convo w/ Ryo
-Jin will give instructions on how to say Ryo’s pet phrases in English
J: I can’t do that, not with Osakaben!

R: What’s that even mean, Osakaben is still Japanese wtf
J: But you can’t express Osakaben in English

Me:

R: It’s not that, no (he says chau yan)
J: SEE, LIKE CHAU YAN, WTF DOES THAT MEAN?
R: When I say chau yan it means “chigau deshou” (no/[you’re]wrong), so now say that in English.
J: ................No good.

R: There might be people watching who want to study English, but there might be comments from English speakers like “wtf is this dude saying, he’s totally wrong” but if we’re ready for those—
J: We’re gonna delete those comments. We’ll make it so no one can comment

Another plan
-these two old men (in the arena) trying out stuff popular among younger people
-TikTok LMAO (pls no)

R: Do you do TikTok?
J: No but I did make an account. You gotta dance to music, right? I couldn’t ‘cause it was embarrassing
R: LOL that’s a sign you’re an ossan

J: I kinda thought up of lots of stuff
R: Then write ‘em down. YOU write them down.
J: (spaces out)
R: Why tf do you keep ignoring me seriously
J: No no I wasn’t (pours a drink)
R: DON’T DRINK ALCOHOL WTF you’re so irritating

Another plan
-ask questions and get answers real time on Twitter (via N/A Twitter)

Ryo leaves lmao
J: Where tf did you go
R: Sorry
J: Imma go pee too

And it ends there
