Kono haishin ga nagareru koro ni wa

The surprising club choice in junior high school. Things get lively when they go well.

Actually, an episode is shared about how, having no friends around at the start of junior high school, one abruptly joined the athletic Karate Club. Since their parents were instructors in Aikido and Karate, there were various worries at first, but one can vividly picture the struggles in that world they boldly leaped into. The memories of days sweating in a boys'-school-like environment with not a single girl around are filled with a fresh sense of surprise now.

There was a unique obsession with hairstyles and fashion too.

In the second half of the show, the conversation expands to topics of hair length and fashion unique to student days. From eyebrows being abnormally thin back then to enjoying clothes unimaginable today, their respective obsessions evoke laughter. Regarding hairstyles in particular, the memories of the trends at the time and reaching-for-adults fashion revive vividly, and many listeners will likely find themselves empathizing.

What I want to tell my past self now.

Looking back at their student days, the way they humorously discuss the passion and tales of failure from back then is very impressive. Bittersweet and slightly cringe-worthy memories of youth are vividly brought back to life through the personalities' witty storytelling. Please enjoy the rest of the talk, which feels like it has captured the atmosphere of that era as it was, in the main episode.
