Kosaka Ryoutarou
(sobbing)
Playing… Tsuki-ma Kei… I—oh geez… I’d decided before that I wouldn’t cry but… Please forgive me. Eh, I… will proceed… as a Gekidan Haikyuu member. I was 19 when I… became a… part of Gekidan Haikyuu… these three years… went by in a flash. I’m here now because… everyone supported me. I really… I love Tsukishima Kei and I… really love everyone in Karasuno. And to everyone who came to see us, thank you so very much. Thank you for your support these three years.

Stage Grand Prix Vol. 5 Interview
with Kosaka Ryoutarou and Miura Kairi
Full interview translation under the Read More!
Please do not repost this translation, and please do not repost my scans.
The two of you have been playing Tsukishima Kei and Yamaguchi Tadashi for three years now, but what were your impressions of each other when you first met?
Kairi: Actually, the very first time we met, I didn’t have a very good impression of him at all (laughs). At the auditions, I thought, wow there’s a crazy noisy* guy here. That turned out to be Ryoutarou. Then at our introductory meeting, when it had been a while since we’d last met, I thought, “Uwahh, this guy’s Tsukishima!” And I was a little worried actually as to whether or not he could play him and play him well (laughs).
Ryoutarou: Well, at the place where we had auditions, I saw someone I knew so I was just talking to him was all! Since my acquaintance was auditioning for Yamaguchi too, I had said to him, “It’d be nice if we could both be cast.” But when I saw Kairi’s acting, I had a hunch like, “It’ll be this guy for sure.” He was the only one that had this totally different atmosphere to him, because he was bright while being ordinary.
“A lot of people probably didn’t know about BKB.”
When Kenta asked the audience what day it was, they answered, “Haikyuu day!”
But after the haiku, Kenta went for another alternate reading of 819 and said it was bike (baiku) day.
And that was Biker Ryoutarou’s cue.

Question cards!
Kairi’s card asked him to repent or confess to something he’s maybe done wrong, and he just kind of went blank, going, “But… comparatively, I’m a good boy. I don’t really have an answer for this.”
But with Ryoutarou making a face, Kairi then pointed out that if anyone would need to confess to anything, it would have to be Ryoutarou.
Ryoutarou: Me? No, I’m a good boy too.
Kenta: Well in that case, I mean, everyone’s good.
Ryoutarou: Well, ok, I guess I’ll admit to something.
Ryoutarou: I… the truth is, I love Haikyuu way too much.
Kairi: Shut up!

Of course, Kenta got himself one of Ryoutarou’s mini photobooks. Ryoutarou was very happy about that, and Kenta complimented his outfits, especially the yellow one.
