This reminds me, on the May 2 episode of VS Arashi, Ohno referred to Sho as Sho-SAN, I think. Was it because there were kids in the challenging team? Do they call each other differently when the cameras aren't rolling? Because I've read recent interview translations where Sho refers to Ohno as Satoshi-kun, but he calls him Ohno-san on TV all the same. Don't they get confused that way? XD ~<3
