Mega Shinnosuke -- 18-sai no Natsu Yasumi(18才の夏休み)

 

What was I doing at 18 during the summer? Easy answer there. I was out in a suburban townhouse development painting fences, watering lawns and picking up trash. For two months, I earned my money to help pay for my tuition into university (the other help came in the form of government grants and student loans). It was weird being all by myself (kinda "Omega Man") in this huge area but along with the sunburn and athlete's foot, I did get my wages.

Meanwhile, thanks to singer-songwriter Mega Shinnosuke's July 2024 digital single "Juu-hassai no Natsu Yasumi" (Summer Holiday of an 18-Year-Old), actress Yui Okamoto(岡本ゆい)can enjoy a very pleasant walk out during the summer season (apparently, she can take 35-degree-Celsius-plus temperatures with high humidity) and read the screenplay for "The Trouble with Tribbles", one of the most famous episodes on the original "Star Trek" in a library. No judgments here, though. Any opportunity to soak up the sun and perhaps partake in copious amounts of iced drinks in July or August will always be welcome.

As well, Mega Shinnosuke's song is so relaxing and casual, it could probably hold hands with Ms. Okamoto for that walk through town. "Juu-Hassai no Natsu Yasumi" is also a track on his new album "Kimi ni Motetai!!"(君にモテたいっ!!...Wanna be a Hit with You!!)which is due to be released in September in a few weeks' time. Ah, incidentally, the below video is one scene from "The Trouble with Tribbles".
