#2:  Spy Movie (July 2023)

Translations | July 2024Read in Outline

A serialization where Kotoko-san makes a poster that everyone would want to post up at their house. This time she works in the shadows with a pistol on one hand.

I thought I was taught how to hold a gun…

This time I become a spy movie protagonist. It feels like a first time I see a gun and a knife, I have no idea how to hold them…. We gathered our little knowledge along with the people at the shoot and took photos while saying "looks good, that sounds like it." all the time.

I usually watch foreign movies so I suppose to know what these scenes looks like… Turns out I can't remember any of it. This time I heard the concept is similar to "Mission: Impossible", so I watched the movie as a preparation… But there wasn't much scenes where Tom used guns (laughs).

Before that I often watch crime suspense movies where people trick each others and get killed like "24 -Twenty Four-" and "Blacklist". But lately I am into movies where a police teamed up with someone to fight crime like "Castle Falls" or "The Mentalist". I like the out-of-the-ordinary feelings of these movies that cannot be experienced in the reality.

…wait a minute, I remembered something. When I was a cover photo for a military magazine, a person from Japan Maritime Self Defense Force (JMSDF) taught me how to hold a gun! (laughs) You're not supposed to put your finger into the trigger, but just rest it on the right side of the gun. They even teach me how to rest your finger on the gun. How did I forget about that… I remembered getting told that you should not put your finger into the trigger unless you're shooting, so I suppose to be careful about that...!

The other thing that I was conscious about is that I am supposed to be a veteran spy for this shoot, so I try to raise my chin a bit to show some composure. However before I know it, I went back to my usual look (laughs). But, if I hold a gun with my usual smile, it gave an impression that I'm strong which is also interesting. I try to imagine putting up the poster I took this time at my house… (laugh) If I laugh I look more like a psychopath, but if I try to look cool it's more doable to be put on a wall?… You all are going to put this poster on the wall right….


Kotokotogoto: Latte

Things that Kotoko want to get into

I just learned about it's deliciousness! I don't like the sourness of black coffee, I can't drink it without a lot of milk even if I put in a lot of sugar. When you pour milk in, the sourness is gone. I make and drink my own drip coffee at home.
