Since Jack Caper have been kind enough to add big, colourful subtitles (and even pictures!) for most of the dialogue in their new YouTube videos like variety shows, I decided to try to translate this video a while back. It's from a series of interviews where the members all answer the same 20 or so questions to introduce themselves to the fans. For whatever reason, Riku added some extra questions in at the beginning for Hiro that none of the others answered, so those aren't numbered.
My Japanese is atrocious, so even with the subtitles there are some bits I didn't understand, which I've highlighted in red and marked with "**". If anyone wants to help fill those in, please feel free. Any corrections are very welcome.
Riku: Question time!
Hiro: YAAAAAAAAYYYYY!!!
Riku: The reverberation (“yoin”) is really long (laughs)
Hiro: Isn’t the reverberation still good?**
^(This is some sort of bad joke - he says “Yoin wa mou yoi n?”)
What would you want to be if you were reborn?
Hiro: I think I’d like to be myself again.
What do you think of when someone says ‘summer’?
Hiro: If it’s summer…TUBE! And Kuwata Keisuke.
Riku: And if we’re talking about songs representative of TUBE?
Hiro: Ah~ natsu yasumi~!
Riku: As expected, that’s correct!
1. What is your part (his role in the band)?
Hiro: The cash register at the supermarket!
2. What made you want to do that part?
Hiro: I wanted money!
3. What is your blood type?
Hiro: Sakuran joutai Type-A…B (AB)
Riku: What’s that supposed to mean?
Hiro: It’s from a DIR EN GREY song! There’s one where the lyrics go “Sakuran joutai TYPE-A”
^(he means “myaku”)
Riku: (part I didn’t catch)
Hiro: Kuwagata (Stag beetle). (More stuff I didn’t catch)
4. Where are you from?
Hiro: Adachi City, Tokyo!
5. What are your hobbies?
Hiro: Spearfishing.
6. What are your special skills?
Hiro: Finding peoples’ faults. It’s the worst, isn’t it?
Riku: The worst.
7. Favourite food?
Hiro: Sweet things.
8. Things you hate?*
(*When he reads the question, Riku omits the “tabe” part of “tabemono” that specifies it’s about food)
Hiro: Riku.
Riku: That’s wrong! Foods you hate! Even so, that was a shock. (laughs)
Hiro: Liver.
Riku: Do you have to do that for each one?
Hiro: Ireba! (Dentures!)
Riku: Do you need to move like that though?
Hiro: (laughs) My body’s just moving on its own. I can’t just be quiet and answer!
Riku: Well, I wish you’d calm down a bit (laughs)
9. Favourite artists?
Hiro: Southern All Stars, Nakajima Miyuki and Sada Masashi
Riku: What do you like about them?
Hiro: -- (didn’t get this part)**
12. Type of girl you like?
Hiro: A slave. Someone that will faithfully listen to what I say.
Someone who will go “Yes!” even if I say “I’m good, but you’re not.”
Riku: Which kind of slave is that?
Hiro: (laughs)
10. What do you like about yourself?
Hiro: Generally, I’m pretty smart.
11. Things you hate about yourself?
Hiro: I’m too good of a person. I’m always sacrificing myself because I want to make the people around me happy.
Riku: (snort of disbelief)
Hiro: What? Is something weird about that?
Riku: I’m just thinking “He’s saying that with a straight face”
Hiro: (laughs) It’s true!
Riku: Quit acting.** (laughs)
13. How you spend your days off?
Hiro: Messing around with my bike.
14. If you had to share a room with a member of the band for a month, who would be good and who would be bad?
Hiro: I’d like to try sharing a room with all of the members.
All: Ohh
Hiro: But Riku would be bad. (laughs)
Riku: Everyone has been saying I’d be bad! (laughs)
Hiro: Because you’re messy!
Riku: What’s so bad about that~?**
15. What do you want to do with Jack Caper?
Hiro: I’d like to live together on a deserted island for a month!
Choco: I can’t deal with bugs~!
Hiro: You can eat the bugs!
16. Prefecture in Japan you want to go to?
Hiro: Oita Prefecture!
Riku: Why?
Hiro: Because I’ve always wanted to try being a fisherman in Oita.
Riku: Oh, to scope it out**
Hiro: Recently I’m also interested in the Ogasawara Islands. I was
researching some of the world’s picturesque views yesterday as well, and
since the Ogasawara Islands were mentioned—
Choco: Which prefecture are the islands in?
Hiro: Tokyo. If you put the boat and accommodation together, the cheapest trip there is around 70 000 yen. (About $700)**
All: So expensive!
Hiro: If you go on the fastest boat, it’s 24 hours. The second fastest is 25.5 hours. One-way trip.
Riku: (didn’t get this line - some joke about giants?)**
17. Most recent YouTube video you watched?
Hiro: Probably something like Game Center Mikado’s KOF (King of Fighters) tournament.
18. If you weren’t in a band, what would you be doing?
Hiro: Fisherman.
19. What’s something that you’re glad you bought recently?
Hiro: A bicycle! Well, I didn’t buy it, it was bought for me. I haven’t
really bought much myself recently, but water – I bought water
recently. I thought I’d try drinking mineral water. The water in Tokyo always tastes so chlorinated.**
Riku: It’s not that water that’s supposed to boost your power, is it?
Hiro: Chikara mizu! (laughs) Recently, I buy water at regular intervals.**
^"Chikara Mizu", or "Power Water", is the name of the product
Riku: Like some sort of secret agent. (laughs)
Hiro: I won’t say the name of the product.
20. A message to yourself after one year.
Hiro: Are you still a genius?
21. A message to yourself after ten years.
Hiro: Is Riku still alive? (laughs)
Riku: Don’t kill me~ Seriously.
Hiro: Are bikes flying in the sky?
Riku: A message to yourself! (laughs)
Hiro: To myself in ten years?
Shuma: It became a message to the time period (laughs)
Hiro: When you felt you had to persist, it wasn't a mistake!**
Riku: I feel like I’ve heard that before…
Hiro: Myself in ten years, huh… Are you getting married? (laughs)
Riku: You’re doing It seriously, huh? (laughs)
Hiro: Are you a fisherman now? Are you a bandman? Or have you even become a man that relies on women for money like Riku?
Riku: Hey! Shut up (#^w^) (laughs) Don’t say that.
Hiro: No matter which path you walk, all you can think is that you’re a success. In this life, can you still think that way about yourself? (blows kiss)
Riku: You kissed yourself?
Hiro: In my life, I don’t think I’ve failed much. No matter what kind of life I live, I think it’ll be a success.
Riku: That’s all the questions.
Hiro: Well, we’re going out like this. Finally, this shitty guy (Riku) is going to answer some questions, so-
^Riku's video is going to be the last one in the series
Riku: Cut it out! (laughs)
Hiro: Enjoy! See you!

THURSDAY'S YOUTH - Sayonara (english translation)
Since their bass player announced that he's leaving soon they've been posting quite a few live videos of this track, so I thought I'd finally get around to translating it.
さよなら / Goodbye
Music and Lyrics: Shinoyama Kosei
I was living to save you, but
I wasn’t the one you wanted to be with
Since that day, I’ve lost my reason to live
You say you’ve found meaning in your life
That’s great
I dreamed of the future I abandoned when I was 15,
And when I tried to look back to it, it floated to the surface and disappeared again*
I don’t have anything precious to me anymore
But when I close my eyes and think back, I’m enveloped by a gentle warmth
Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye, goodbye
Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye
Please be gentle with me, it’d be great if you could
Please stay connected with me, even if it’s just for now
Please love someone, it’s fine even if it's not me
Please live on, it’s fine even if it’s just until you die
I don’t have anything precious to me anymore
But when I close my eyes and think back, I’m enveloped by a gentle warmth
Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye, goodbye
Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye
Be happy, okay?
Live peacefully, okay?
Although, from this point on, I’ll never forgive you**
I don’t have anything precious to me anymore
But when I close my eyes and think back, I’m enveloped by a gentle warmth
Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye, goodbye
Goodbye, goodbye
I don’t have anything precious to me anymore
Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye
Morning is coming
Morning is coming
Notes:
*Not really sure about this line
**I think this is the only way it makes sense, but the “de” at the end is making me kind of worried that I’m reading this wrong
さよなら / Sayonara
Anata o sukuu tame ni ikite ita kedo

Ano hi kara ikiru imi o boku wa ushinatta

I also translated this Twitter exchange as an added bonus, because I thought it was pretty sweet (especially given the current circumstances). It's about Shinoyama, but I think it captures a lot of what I love about this band. Fuyukan Chie is a singer-songwriter that has been working with the band on various things - she featured on one of their songs, made a video for them, etc.
https://twitter.com/sudatch/status/1167810864067465216
Fuyukan Chie: I want to know why Shinoyama Kosei is loved, so people that like Shinoyama-san, won’t you tell me what is it that’s good about him? I just genuinely want to know what parts of him are charming.
Suda Yuuki: His songs, his voice, his words, his height, his sensitivity. He’s also a king of random trivia. And, around when I joined Suck a Stew Dry, he said “You’re a good bassist.”
Shinoyama Kosei: You’re a good bassist. (Now as well)
Fuyukan: His height… ! lol lol
Overall, these reasons are very like you, so they’re good.
Thanks for telling me!

KUROYUME - Suck Me! (english translation)
Suck Me!
Lyrics: Kiyoharu
Music: Hitoki
Dance and dancing, lenient downer
The upper dribbles spit
While the downer is in anguish
The blue’s mane, the pink’s corruption
Orange-coloured aural
Dance and dancing, forceful upper
It hits the downer’s throat
Let out your voice, upper
An aural so intense it could stir up the blue’s mane*
Suck me, suck me
Suck you, suck you
Suck me, suck me
Suck you, suck you
When you’ve got me soaking wet, piss off!**
Dance and dancing, bent backward downer
Use the tip of your tongue too, upper
Get down on your knees, downer
Even with just holding it in your mouth, my hips seem satisfied
Give me more of your specialty, that aural
Suck me, suck me
Suck you, suck you
Suck me, suck me
Suck you, suck you
When you’ve got me soaking wet, piss off!**
Suck me, suck me
Suck you, suck you
Suck me, suck me
Suck you, suck you
If swallowing it bothers you, piss off!
The blue’s mane, the pink’s body fluids
Orange-coloured aural
Suck me, suck me
Suck you, suck you
Suck me, suck me
Suck you, suck you
Rather than the worst type, the ones that feign ignorance,***
Suck me, suck me
Suck you, suck you
Suck me, suck me
Suck you, suck you
Inside the mouth of someone with loose morals,
When you’ve got me soaking wet, piss off!**

THURSDAY'S YOUTH - #Songwriter (english translation)
There are some lines I'm not too sure about, but I think the gist of what he's saying is pretty clear. I'm really happy that they did a live video for this track.
#ソングライター / #Songwriter
Music and Lyrics: Shinoyama Kosei
A heart with a low-level rebellious spirit
A Japanese person that’s withering away to nothing
Saying it’s filled with slander is my air raid shelter from SNS*
My soul must be defective
When I face any hardship, I think having none would be better
The ones still left on the shelf must be available at a bargain,
But the return period on mine has already expired
Won’t you stay for me? Please!
I still need your money
Looking at it from the opposite side, thinking something like that just seems the lowest – the worst – doesn’t it?**
Guys like that can just hurry up and disappear
I’m being loved for telling nothing but lies, right?***
The truth is, I hate everyone
But even so, I won’t flinch away from it
I’ll accept this world
Writing songs to play at festivals
It’s alright if you get fired up
I could hear voices from the area around me saying
“It’s no good if you complain”
Won’t you stay for me? Stay there
Because I still need your money
“Ah, that’s right, make sure to buy the CD after too!”
That copyright is what's keeping me alive
This kind of song is the result of my struggle
This song is the type of song I can write right now
Even so, it doesn’t matter
I’ll accept this music
I’m being loved for telling nothing but lies, right?***
The truth is, I hate everyone
But even so, I won’t flinch away from it
I’ll accept this world
I’m being loved for telling nothing but lies, right?***
The truth is, I hate everyone
But even so, I won’t flinch away from it

The truth is, I hate everyone
But even so, I won’t flinch away from it
I’ll accept this world
What’s right, and
What’s wrong
An absurd songwriter
Let’s sing along pointlessly
Let’s lament this dying music scene
For every suitably laughable songwriter****

Suga Shikao - TWILIGHT ★ TWILIGHT (english translation)
Not really sure about some of these lines, but I think this has the gist of it, hopefully.
トワイライト★トワイライト / TWILIGHT ★ TWILIGHT
Music and Lyrics: Suga Shikao
Twilight
In the photo, we’re laughing a bit in monochrome
Twilight
I wonder if we stopped on that day?
Hey darling,
The wine of happiness,
It’s always been redder than my blood
It’s not something I’ve been able to drink a lot of*
Twilight
In the photo, we’re laughing a bit in monochrome
Twilight
Tomorrow, let’s graduate from this city
I’ve finished packing and,
My room’s already empty
When the cigarette goes into the empty can,
There’s the sound of its heat fizzling out**
Hey, what kind of colour does love have?
When I try to remember, it hurts a bit
If it’s the time when you were here with me,
It’s the colour of the morning on a day off from work
Is love a beautiful thing?
Deep in my heart, it hurts a bit
It’s just the same as beauty, hard to see and precious***
Traumerei
Your dainty hand took hold of me
Traumerei
A painful, awkward love sprouted to life
Hey, darling
It’s just convenience store coffee, but
For someone like me that’s become used to wet dreams,
It’s like I won't ever wake up****
I remember that sparkling day shamelessly
Even if I don’t have a direction to head towards,
The story is continuing
In this sparkling season,
In this city as well,
And probably inside you as well…
Even this glass that has been emptied,
One day it will be filled again
The headphones you gave me,
I wonder if I should put them on
I already can’t hear out of the right side,
So I’ll pick a new pair*****
Hey, what kind of colour does love have?
When I try to remember, it hurts a bit
If it’s the time when you were here with me,
It’s the colour of the morning on a day off from work
Is love a beautiful thing?

It’s just the same as beauty, hard to see and precious***
