Strong Zero in the girly world.

Marriage Guy" (Heibonsha) ¥1,500+TAX

The book "The Marriage Guy," which tells the story of your marriage to gay writer Samson Takahashi, starts with the (somewhat shocking) episode of the "Gelato Pique" that you bought in Matsudo. At first, the title of the book was proposed as "Gelato Pique Strong Zero.

Noh town:Gerard Pique and Strong Zero have opposite images, don't they? The book is about marriage, so it was just right to bring in Gerapique to give it a "fluffy, newlywed happy essay" feel. But the way it was presented in the book was so terrible that I was surprised that they invited me to do the photo shoot. I thought they would get mad at me because of the content (laughs).

That's why I'm so happy to see you here (laughs). And now that White Day is approaching, what made you decide to give Samson Takahashi a gift of "Gelato Pique"?

Noh town:In fact, I gave him another brand of pajamas before Gerard Pique. And it was a tiger-print pajama shirt with an osoroi pattern. It was half a story. But I bought Gerard Pique a year later, so there was no resistance at all.

Noh town:At the time of the gift, we weren't really living together, but we were going to the other's house about once a week, so I think we no longer had a relationship that would cause strange misunderstandings no matter what I gave.

In fact, he seemed to like cute things, and I knew he always slept in appropriate T-shirts and such, so I thought he would probably enjoy something like this.

Smooth 2BD Hoodie (BEG) ¥6,600+tax, Pile Dress (OWHT) ¥6,800+tax,
Smoothy 2BD Short Socks (BEG) ¥1,800+TAX

Do you have any memories of Valentine's Day or White Day?

Noh town:This is a recent story, but for the first time this year I went to the Valentine's Day Fair at "Isetan". I just enjoyed seeing all the different brands of chocolates. I want to eat them myself, and if I buy too many, I end up giving them to someone else. Recently, there is a feeling of abolishing giri chocolates, but I am starting to see it simply as a chocolate festival.

That also connects to your discovery in "The Marriage Guy" that "perhaps I was too caught up in common sense and therefore didn't enjoy things". He decided to enjoy Valentine's Day in all its simplicity.

Noh town:That's right. In the past, I used to be overly conscious of "it's Valentine's Day, so I have to do something" or "it's White Day. I didn't like it because I felt like I was obligated to do something. I also thought that if I was working at a company, it would be a hassle to have a "giri choco" (obligatory chocolate). Once I got away from that and started enjoying myself, it became more interesting.
