OK people!!!

Just read some fans' reporting on [H] magazine released today.

Remember this is the final part on Arashi SP for Kiiroi Namida ne.... So first part we have a special feature on Jun. THE PHOTOS seemed to be really cute + sexy yo!!! Must see for Jun fans!!

Jun in glasses
Jun in red robe

Then comes the text on his interview.... He touched on his acting works right from [Kindaichi] days to present. His feelings, his satisfaction, his sense of achievement. Really so like Jun desho???!! He is so serious about his work and his career (and basically his everything ha ha!)

You also have to check out what Jun said about their concerts ne..... Fans said you can cry just by reading his comments yo!!!

And of course the most interesting parts are the Questions & Answers on Jun from our 4 members. Seems that Aiba chan's replies are really funny. One of his reply is something like NO COMMENT or NOTHING TO COMMENT FROM ME..... So fans said he seemed to be AFRAID of our Jun ha ha ha!! But this I doubt ne... He is the ONLY one who is not afraid of Jun I think..... The rest are still slightly afraid..... Of his seriousness ne!!

Leader!!!! He said something about Jun's eyebrows yo!! Ha ha ha ha he is so BRAVE ne!!

Last part we have the director comments on Jun, which fans said they accept very willingly coz it seems really true on Jun!!

Can't wait to get my hands on this!! Arrrgh!

嵐カレンダー：特大ポスター

あれええ？嵐のカレンダーに特大ポスター付きなの？？

よっしゃ！！！

でも、全部かな〜？予約の物ももらうのかしら？？？

To all Jun fans!!!

Today's TV magazine The Television has something on Jun's new drama Bambino!!!

Read that there is also a picture of him under-training as a cook for the drama yo!!!

Wonder how that picture looks like??? Hmmmm....

This may be the same issue where we see Aiba chan & Leader "kissing" while baking cookies??? Hmmmm....... maybe not ne.... Think this is the Weekly one and Aiba chan/Leader is the Monthly one...

花男２：今後〜最終回まで

People!! Basd on the latest TV mags, fans gathered the storyline of HYD2 from now till the final episode ne!! I'm very surprised coz just 3 more episodes and they are squeezing ALL these in???? Hmmm....

Those who don't like spoilers PLEASE DO NOT READ ON.

The upcoming story:

(1) Raining scene
(2) Amnesia
(3) Umi-chan appears (for those who read the manga, you would know WHO this gal is ne!! The irritating one, at least to me!! ha ha)
(4) Something terrible happens (again for those of you who know/read the manga, you would know who and how ne, very close to original storyline yo!!)

Woooow I can't wait for the raining scene and the amnesia part!!!!

パパとママは、仲良くハンバーガーを食べました！！！すっごく可愛いよ!!ラブラブ！！


Everyone!! Seems last night's Shukudaikun was filmed around same timing as Utaban coz Kazu wasn't inside!!

Hmmmm.... disppointed but no choice ne! Kazu is trying his best alone!!!

But just like Jun said, Arashi has 5 members!! Only when 5 persons are together can they be called Arashi ne!

I'm sure members missed our Kazu ne..... very evident from Music Station!!! Their faces when Kazu came to the studio tells it all!!

Oh but Papa and Mama ate hamburger (?) together very love love!!

CD全然無い!!

やっぱりLove So Sweetはすごい！！！

ファンによると、全国的に売り切れちゃってるし、レンタルも無い！！！

すごくない？？？？

んで、A Day In Our Lifeは、初動も２０万枚以上だったんだけど、結局全部６０万枚売れてたんだよね？？！！だから、Love So Sweetも期待大！！！！はい！！どんどん売れてってください！

People! It's just simply fantastic news ne!

The single Love So Sweet has been reported by many fans to be out of stock in many cd shops all over Japan!!!

There is also no more available for rental!! (yes in Japan they have rental ne)

Sugoi ne!!!!

Seems that A Day In Our Life in the end sold more than 600,000 yo!! So we can also expect Love So Sweet to sell as many ne!!

Yes please sell MORE AND MORE!!

限界だと思った時がはじまりだよ〜
まあ、がんばってる？？

すごいね！！相葉ちゃんがいつも良いことを言ってるんだよ！私達は、励まされてまた頑張っていこうと思わせたりするんだよね！！

はい！頑張ってるよ、相葉ちゃん！！あなたも頑張ってね！！


Minna!!

Jweb (handphone website) has this part whereby Johnny guys kinda take turns to write a sentence or phrase every week to fans. Most of the time though, Japanese fans do not write exactly what the guys say ne..... (just like Game Nikki, fans are not supposed to copy out of the site)

But this week (today) we have Aiba chan saying something, and surprisingly some fans DID write down what he said!!

It's words of encouragement from our baka boy:

When you think you have reached the LIMIT and cannot take it any more, it is just the beginning!
Well, are you trying your best?

Hai, as you can see, our baka boy is not baka at all ne!!

YES Aiba chan!! I am trying my best yo!! You must too ne!!! I shall always remember your words on reaching the limit and make an effort to see it as a beginning and not the end!!

Arigato!!

Congrats Arashi!!

ドラマ：今期のみどころ

花男２が大ヒットで、今期ドラマの競争は激しいけど、少し私の好きなトップ３を話して見るね。ドラマ大好きなみんな、どう？？？！笑。

今期は、「花男２」＆「拝啓」は勿論、他に面白いと思ってるドラマがもう一つある。

「ハケンの品格」
篠原涼子
加藤愛
小泉孝太郎
大泉洋

このドラマは、かなり面白いよ！！正式社員　VS　派遣（ハケン）社員のストーリが笑えて、泣ける。特に篠原涼子さんの派遣が常に無表情、無感情というところは、とても新鮮で、今までドラマに無いようなキャラだと思うね。

でも、このドラマの一番見所は、やっぱり、現在日本就職の現像をうまく再現できたな〜って。

それに、演技。このドラマには、正直に言って、俊男美女がいない（はいはい！！そう思ってま〜す！）けど、演技派がいっぱいで、すっごく面白い！！特に最近あまり出てない大泉洋さん。この俳優（？）は全然男前じゃないけど、なんか魅力があるっていう・・・・笑えるしね！！

視聴率を見てみたら、分かると思うんだけど、先週第一位は花男２、二位は華麗〜、三位はハケン。全部２０％超えてたよ！！

だから、ハケンは面白いよ！！見てね！！はい！

OK this has nothing much to do with Arashi, but it's more on this season's interesting dramas.

To me, there are 3 dramas worth watching this season:

HYD2 (of course)
Haikei (of course)
&

Haken no Hinkaku (Shinohara Ryoko, Kato Ai, Koizumi Koutaro, Ooizumi Hiroshi)

Basically, the story of Haken no Hinkaku is about a "contract" staff who is very much in demand by companies with very high hourly pay. This tells the story of why she has chosen to become a "contract" staff (which is usually for 3 months, renewable upon review) and not a formal employee of a company.

To us, this may not SOUND like something you will want to know more about, but actually if you know Japan, you'll know that this kind of "contract" staff has almost taken over as the major trend now for big companies as opposed to formal employees. More and more companies prefer to employ "contract" staff (skilled ones) because of the flexibility (quick retrenchment during bad times) as well as the cost effectiveness (no bonus for "contract" staff).

So you can imagine the underlying BATTLE between the formal employees and the "contract" staff (since a lot of the "contract" staff actually holds more qualifications and are better-skilled). There is a lot of conflict in an office, and you can see that from the drama.

The other interesting point about this drama is the acting. To be sure, none of the actors/actresses are gorgeous or very cute looking. However, the acting will win you over!! Especially this guy Ooizumi Hiroshi (the natural curl guy who is quite funny but not good looking). He is a capable formal employee of the company and falls for "contract" staff Shinohara Ryoko(who may be even more capable then him). But Shinohara Ryoko has chosen to turn cold and cool towards anyone from the office to avoid any feelings of HURT or SADNESS since she will leave after 3 months anyway. In fact, she has chosen to work for a company not more than 3 months to avoid attachments. Smart woman, but not so good for her image (cold, hard-hearted, sacarstic etc.)

Won't elaborate more, but you may want to check out the drama coz last week's viewership not only HYD2 and Karei hit above 20%, Haken no Hinkaku too!!! You can tell how popular the drama is already from the figures ne!

Hai! Just a recommendation.

オスカー

ベスト作品賞、「硫黄島〜」じゃなかったのか・・・・

残念なんだけど、これぐらいのプロモーションがあって、和君も世界へ進出することができて、すっごく良かったな〜と思ってるよ！

私は、映画も見たし、和君の演技力も確かめたし、もう十分！！

お疲れ様、クリントさん、和君！！


Well well well, a little disappointed that Iwojima didn't get Best Picture for the Oscars.... But I have to say that the amount of promotion this movie has had from all sources, the fact that Kazu has successfully created a stir and a name for himself, this really proves that the movie is something special ne!!

For Clint Eastwood to do a documentary movie on war, AND from the Japanese perspective, AND ENTIRELY IN JAPANESE, is itself alreay a great adventure!

I've watched the movie and saw how Kazu performed.

I am impressed.

That's all I need.... Hai!

Thanks to Clint and Kazu!!!

Best Sound Editing - Iwojima

音響編集賞　硫黄島からの手紙　受賞。

すごい！！！！次は、最優秀監督、作品賞を取ってくれ！！！


Minna!!

Up to this point we have Iwojima winning the Oscar for Best Sound Editing!! Yatta!!

Waiting for final results for Best Director and Best Film!!

Ganbatte Iwojima!!

Ganbatte Kazu!

視聴率花男２：やっとNo１だ！！

やったやったみんな！

うちの道明寺が「華麗〜」を突破して、先週の視聴率は、No１だああ！

「華麗〜」は、２１．１％だった。

すごいぞ！！花より男子２！！恐るべし！！

http://beauty-cdn.oricon.co.jp/news/42468/


Minna!!! Before the Oscars, we have great news!!!!

HYD2 last week's viewership rating was finally No 1 !!!! YEAH!!!

Finally, this has beaten the boring KimuTaku drama to become No 1, with really great rating at 22.7% yo!!

You can see the ranking in the links above ne!

Well-done Doumyouji!!

Well-done Jun!!

Bet the song Love So Sweet will also be big!!

Yatta!!

PS. Thanks to G-chan who gave me this great news so early in the morning ne!! Arigato!

連続No１

やった！！！！！

みんな！！！！

「Love So Sweet」は、４日連続オリコンで１位ですよ！！

さすが、[バカ売れ]のCDだね！!

すごいぞ！！！

Minna!!!!

Fantastic news ne!!

Love So Sweet - 4 days at No 1 of Oricon Ranking!

YEAH!!!!!

Really very sellable CD ne!!

ベイスト：衣装の話

笑。これは面白いから、ちょっと書いちゃうね！！

今日のベイストには、和君が視聴者から演出衣装について質問に対し、回答したらしい：

「衣装はね、決められてんの。
でもね、選択肢がないんだよ。これですって渡されて。
でも…翔ちゃんと潤くんはあるんだよな。
“こっちとこっちありますけど、どっちにしますか？”って。
でも俺はない。キャプテンと俺はないんだよ、衣装に興味ない人はね…
そう相葉さんも選択肢…あるんだな…どうしますか？って。
だから、選ぶの…大変だよねえ………」

やっぱり潤君、翔君、相葉ちゃん、この３人が衣装に興味あるから、選択肢があるんだな！！納得！笑。だって、リーダーと和君は、興味ないんだもん！

Today's BayStorm we hear Kazu replying to some listener's question pertaining to his dressing on TV (something like why was he always in PINK nowadays).

[MY clothes ne, are already decided. I have no choice nor say in this. Usually they will say THIS IS IT, and I will be given my clothes. But Sho-chan and Jun-kun have choices. "We have this and this, which one would you like?".... But I don't have. Leader and I don't have yo. People who have no interest in clothes ne. Oh yes Aiba chan also has ne... He will be asked which will you have?... So he has to choose..... Quite troublesome ne...]

Ha ha only Leader and Kazu will feel troublesome yo!!!

まごまご：CD宣伝

みんな！昨日のまごまご５人トークはすごく短かったけど、CD宣伝があったので、ちょっと英訳するね。

People!! Yesterday's Mago 5 person talk was very short and they had this CD promotion which I am translating briefly below for you guys ne:

Masaki: I, Aiba Masaki, am delivering a sweet song to all of you! (spoken in a tone like gay... Ha ha)
Satoshi: How sweet can this be yo! (hit Aiba chan's shoulder ha ha)
Sho: Ha ha ha ha ha (always laughing, as usual ne!)
Jun: Thank you.
Satoshi: Please buy the cd ne!

J WebのMステレポート、仲良し嵐だ！

きゃああああ！Jwebに更新となった嵐のMステレポートに感動。

嵐って本当に５人が仲良くて仕事ができる愛しい男だね！嵐のファンになれて良かった・・・・本当！！幸せ！

Jwebに書いてあったMステ出演時のことは：

（１）リーダーの髪の毛、ずっと触ってたり遊んでたりする和君・・・・大宮、可愛いね！！だってリーダー、全然怒らないんだもん。ずっとやられるまま。感動。
（２）和君は、ベルリンでショルダーバッグを４つ買ったんだよ。ちゃんとみんなの為にお土産！！！しかも、翔君が使ってて・・・・可愛いね！！やっぱり仲良し！！感動。
（３）５人がほわほわの空気でも、VTRチェックをしてちゃんと仕事もする。格好良い嵐！感動。

なんか、このグループっていいね！！

We have so much "proof" already that Arashi members are really very intimate and closed to each other, but I still want to write this coz I am very touched!

Jweb just had an update on Arashi's Music Station performance:

(1) Kazu kept fondling and playing with Leader's hair.... Yet Leader is never angry... In fact, Leader just let Kazu do whatever he wanted!! Ha ha Omiya saikou ne!!

(2) Kazu bought 4 shoulder bags from Berlin as souvenirs for the guys!!! And he actually bought for everyone, not forgetting any!! The fact that Sho was already using it really shows how closed the guys are ne!!! Saikou!

(3) In the midst of such lovey dovey moments, we still see Arashi checking the VTR seeing how they had performed!! Yappari these guys are also hardworking and pro ne!!!

I am so lucky to be their fan yo!! This is SUCH A GREAT GROUP people!!

K８がどんどんやってるぞ！

あ〜の〜ね・・・・K８が嫌いじゃないけど、じゃないけど、嵐がやりたいことをどんどんK８がやっていくんだよ・・悔しい！！

K８が５月から９月まで、４ヶ月で47都道府県ツアー決定

嵐も早くやってほしい！！


I do not dislike Kanjani 8 ne... Please don't misunderstand ne... But what Arashi wanted to do in their Secret Talk 2005 is going to be done by Kanjani 8 soon yo!! Arrrrghhhh I feel so upset for the guys!!

Arashi should be doing this too!! Going to 47 prefectures/districts to hold their concerts within 4 months!! Arrrrghh Kanjani 8 is doing this within a 4 months period yo!!

Well, congrats to K8..... They really are very popular now ne!!

I am happy that it's them and not.... er.... you know which group ne!!

Arashi, GANBARE!!!

これは、噂の・・・・・？

何なんだ、これ？？？すごいぞ！！！リーダーと相葉ちゃん、何やってんのよおおおお！！？？？

People people people!!!

Those who are interested to see how Aiba chan + Leader photos are like in Monthly The Television (I think this is the one), go to this Japanese fan blog site!!

The fan never specify but I think this is the one which I mentioned yesterday to yo guys!! The Cookie Making one! Kyaaaaaa I can't believe the pictures!!

ゲームニッキ７７９

今日の和君は、ドラマ撮影の時に大雨のせいで中止となってしまい、まだ終わってないのに、なんだか終わったような感じ、って！

でも、本当に後３週間ぐらいで和君は、一平君でなくなっちゃうから、少し寂しいよ。もう一平君が好きになっちゃったからね、私は！！


Kazu mentioned that due to heavy rain, his drama filming had to stop. Although the filming has not been completed, he felt like the drama has already finished.... Hmmm, Kazu is probably starting to feel lonely already!

Coz 3 more weeks and Ippei will not be around any more!!! Arrrghh I feel lonely too ne, Kazu!! I already like Ippei a lot now!!

Hope Kazu has another drama soon!

K８コン：一平君が出た！！

本当？？？！！！

なんか、昨日K８のドーム公演で、ヨコのソロの時、一平君がVTRで出たみたいよ！！しかも、時夫の膝にのって、メッセージを言ったらしい！！可愛い・・・・

初めてかな？？？嵐メンバーが他のグループ公演にVTR出演なんて？？！！聞いた事がないけど・・・でも、嬉しい！！ヨコもきっと嬉しいでしょう？？！！はい！

Wow it seems that Kazu (as Ippei) appeared in VTR during Kanjani 8 concert yesterday (Dome concert)!! This was during Yoko's solo part yo!!

AND, Kazu was kinda sitting on Yoko (Tokio) lap when he said his message!!! Ha ha ha I bet Yoko must be really pleased and happy!!!

I've never heard of Arashi members going on other group's concert via VTR before.... May be a first time ne..... Sounds fun!!

二宮和也「最近のアイドルはすげぇ！って思われたい」

みんな！！！いよいよオスカーだ！！！アジア時間、明日の朝に発表される予定だが、今日、日本の新聞に既に和君の記事が載ってたりして・・・すごくいい記事なんで、見てください！

http://www.sanspo.com/geino/top/gt200702/gt2007022500.html

Minna!!

Very soon, very very soon we shall have the announcement of Oscar winners ne..... Asian time will be tomorrow morning!!! YEAH!!

Well, although Kazu is not in LA (still hoping that he is), this news above was released this morning on Kazu and his acting skills.... (including for Iwojima and drama)

Basically, Kazu wants people to think that nowadays, idols are very fantastic, that idols have a lot of potential in achieving many things. By acting in dramas or movies, he thinks that these works are given to him more as a present/gift. He hopes that people will think of idols in a different light then just idols ne.

On the question of how he feels about being in such a big production like Iwojima, as well as working with all the veteran actors in Haikei, he said that if this was to happen to his members in Arashi, he would be very much interested to know what they think as well. But when he is the person involved here, he doesn't think much of it, and would prefer everyone to watch his works and tell him the comments/opnions instead.....

A very cool and calm Kazu, oblivious (or choose to ignore) to what others think about him.

On how he prepares for his role, Kazu mentioned that his script is always very CLEAN.... In fact, he ONLY READS HIS OWN PARTS and not the other characters' words.... He doesn't care if the other character has died or something, but he remembers and thinks about his own character and role.

Kazu also said that he doesn't read the script at home! (oh wow) In fact, he reads his script any where except at home..... And the time taken to read his parts in the scripts is very very short.

The writer of this article then commented that Kazu seemed to be an actor who treats the atomosphere and all the characters' feelings very importantly during filming. And from there, he will naturally react and act! That's the kind of actor Kazu is.

Kazu himself said that his body is very normal, nothing outstanding, and his face is not special too. This may be the reason why he always uses NATURAL way of acting.

The writer then said his impression of Kazu:

He is not the type you would take lightly. He has both his feet on the ground. He seems to have the courage/strength to be afraid of nothing. He also has a sense of humour.

This is roughly what's written in the newspaper link. I am purposely writing about this article so that Kazu fans will know more about him and from this like him even more ne!!

OOOOH MYYYY GOOOOOOOOSH!!

I am repeating last night's Music Station performance at Kazuhiro's blog now.....

WHY DOES AIBA CHAN LOOK SO DARN GORGEOUS????

I mean, what's that long white thing wrapped around his waist which flings here and flings there when he dances???

Why is he wearing such a CUTE long-sleeve soft shirt??? Everytime his arm moves the sleeves moves too!! Arrrrrghhh!

Aiba chan is just so GORGEOUS!!! FAINTZ.... SOMEONE KILL ME!! Arrrghhh!

I imagine that Hanazawa Rui will just be like that!!! In white shirt and jeans chooooooh cute and tall and slim and gorgeous and kakkoii and.....

WHO SAYS AIBA CHAN CANNOT BE HANAZAWA RUI???

Ha ha ha just wanted to EXPRESS my DROOL!

PS. BTW, you guys noticed that at the end of the performance, the 5 panels behind the guys turned into Arashi colours right? Red, Yellow, Green, Blue, Purple. Go check it out yo!!

Thanks to Music Station!!
