I hope you don't mind the constructive criticism, this is how I would have done it.

櫻井:さあ、よろしく、どうぞ!さあさあ、もう週明けるとバレンタインになるんだね!
Sakurai: Welcome, Thanks for coming! Well, in another week it will be Valentine's day, isn't it?

S: Well, we ask for your favor! Say, isn't the beginning of next week Valentine's Day?

[明ける: the start of]


ニノ:なるほど!
Nino: Yes!

N: I see!

櫻井:2月の11日ですからね!来週はもうバレンタイン!やっぱさ、バレンタインって男の子的にはちょっとソワソワするもんなの?
Sakurai: Because today is February 11th, next week is Valentine's day! After all, for Valentine, won't it make boys feel a little nervous?

S: Right, since it's February the 11th today! I'm sure Valentine's Day would have guys on tenterhooks, wouldn't it?


ニノ:ドラマやってると、やっぱ、僕はちょっとドキドキしますよ。
Nino: When I'm filming a drama, it makes me a little uneasy.

Nino: When I'm filming a drama, it does make me a little excited.

[Added the "does" to reflect the やっぱ [after all], and I'd choose to use the word "excited" instead of "uneasy", because "uneasy" tends to have a negative connotation, whereas "excited" conveys the ドキドキ, happy feeling.]


櫻井:と言いますと?
Sakurai: meaning?

S: Meaning?

ニノ:現場で、その女優さんが行事的にやってくれるんじゃないですか?
Nino: In the filming site, all the actresses give the chocolate as an obligatory event.

N: At the studio, don't actresses give out chocolates as part of an obligatory event?

[Added the question mark to the sentence.]


櫻井:目を見張る義理チョコではあります!
Sakurai: They have Just-for-the-show compulsory chocolate.

S: There are the Astonishing Obligatory Chocolates!

[目を見張る: I interpreted this as astonishing, and apparently Wikipedia calls Girichoco "Obligation Chocolate".]


To be very honest, I am not confident of the translation I have made here myself. I try to double check across different dictionaries, use the Japanese thesaurus and what not. Wikipedia is an indispensable tool.

That being said, I think you should definitely give it a shot. Start with small clips and see if experienced translators can help you spot. That's how people learn.
