sorry to double post but DRAMA RUMOURS surrounding Ohno & MatsuJun ! (Lisa will be happy over this :innocent)

http://community.livejournal.com/arashi_on/1900163.html

omg if it's true that if Ohno were to act in another new drama in Oct , wow whee :thud & that goes for MatsuJun too xD

OMFG OMFG OMFG I WAS JUST THINKING ABOUT JUN AND OHNO BEING IN A NEW DRAMA TOO! WELL, MORE FOR JUN, REALLY :dead2

breathe lisa, breathe ......................:dead2 brb!

.....i'm actually crying tears of joy right now. mostly over a new jun drama rumor than ohno, but...if both are true, i'll obviously watch both, lol. but omg yiou guys, i honestly couldn't enjoy smile in the way i wanted to, and i was literally hoping that jun will get another drama :weep this is too good to be true........:scry (crying buckets)

:weep

AND OMG JUN AND OGURI SHUN?!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

time to stop going crazy over narimiya hiroki. I NEED MY JUN (and shun) :luv2

(end of fangirl rant. need to calm down so i could watch BUZZER BEAT :laugh)

oh and one last thing..........ARASHI BETTER SING FOR JUN'S DRAMA THIS TIME BECAUSE I WANT A NEW SINGLE (since their last jun drama song was for BAMBINO) OR ELSE...........:grumpy

edit #2: i did an excite translation, and they mention something about asami mizukawa in ohno's drama, too. :P

omfg. YES! I hope the rumors are true
they better do the single for jun's drama ~~~~

lmao Lisa's outburst is just classic :laugh & to me I consider One Love as the 'last' song that was given to MatsuJun since it was used in a movie of his but whatever works your way :yes

Latest Hitmitsu screencaps - http://community.livejournal.com/arashi_on/1900768.html

HAHAHAHAHA at Ohno with that bra over him -_-'''

wtf's going on in there :roflmao

& OMG I just read the local papers that Ryusei no Kizuna will be shown on local cable TV Singtel's Mio *____*

Mine's StarHub but my paternal grandparents subscribe to Mio :P

at least in the article , they did mentioned that Nino & Ryo are from ARASHI & NEWS respectively & that because of them , it ups the star factor :D

haha you just gotta love my outbursts! they only come with drama announcements like this. maybe i need some chill pills to calm myself down :laugh that's how much i love arashi, though. i'll just go bananas over them :love

i wish RnK would air here! on one of my channels, it's all sponsored by fuji TV, so they only air variety shows from there and dramas. now if i had TBS, i'd be watching arashi dramas on my own TV by now :weep it's not fair! :scry but VS arashi could possibly air since it's on fuji as well, but i'll keep hoping! the minute i see the boys on TV.........

OUTBURSTS GALORE! :dead2 i'll tape every single episode even if i saw it already, haha.

:tipsy

you wanna know what's even better? it says jun and oguri shun will be on Fuji's 9pm timeslot. it could either be the popular getsu 9 timeslot (mondays at 9pm) or tuesdays at 9pm. but i hope jun gets the timeslot for monday! BUZZER BEAT is currently on that timeslot.

btw kaori, guess who saw 3 episodes of gokusen today :laugh jun as sawada shin is perfect for me so far! i'm really enjoying the drama. but i'm so tired. i watched dramas all week :dead2

i need to finish smile, too. but i'm just...not interested in it anymore, lol. it really wasn't one of my enjoyable jun dramas :( STORMY hasn't even finished subbing it, too.

haha, shin seriously is like watching tsukasa #2 but just more quiet and more bad :laugh jun has like the same expression in the episodes of gokusen that i've seen so far. love the "mean" face :P i hope i can finish it by monday :dead2

so...is there any new arashi news? it's been a bit quiet here :(

oh, and does anyone else love itsuka no summer? so catchy! aiba is too cute for his own good :P

and on another note, i now have 8,000 plays of arashi on my last,fm. all in those one year :tipsy yup, i'm obsessed! and damn proud :D

yay! #1 :cool

lol I saw screencaps of the latest VS ARASHI episode

Aiba crossed over to the other side & challenged the other 4 guys o_O

MatsuJun went for the Falling Pipe again & the pipe choser was Aiba (blue team)

I don't know what happened but I'm going to download it tomorrow because the links are all hosted under MU & not MF yet

you see this Kaori - http://community.livejournal.com/ara...ream/8954.html

the 2 guests are apparently Olympics medalists or something like that

I don't know what led Aiba to join them o_O

lol at the Arashi vs Arashi screencap :laugh & argh MatsuJun looks great *____*

omg I can't believe All the BEST will be out exactly in a month's time @_@ :thud

and i STILL didn't order it. well actually, i didn't even ask my mom yet :weep i'll wait until early august, lol.

aw :(

I will wait for HMV to bring in stock for both editions of All the BEST . I'm getting the limited edition , by hook or by crook :P

so I guess this means covers for both editions will be out soon & the title of the only new song on All the BEST too :yes

did anyone see this live from nino before? it's from the Iza, Now!! tour.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1BPA57lFswY

seriously beautiful :love

i hope the covers are NOTHING like KinKi Kids' 10th Anniversary best album. they better be nice, not just red & white stripes. i'm hoping the boys are going to be on the covers.

i better get the LE. or else my super secret connection is going to get ram-tackled. :D *DoS* jk jk jk. :laugh

oh definately, the boys BETTER be on the covers :yes or else...:mischief

it'll be a miracle if i can get the RE :weep

I still don't get the red & white stripes going on in 39 , it just doesn't make sense to me :dead2

:roflmao

oh I can think of arranging something for you Lisa :innocent

i know! i want him back to his 2007 style :(

btw, you guys need to watch this fanvid! priceless! (btw, where is the song from? never heard it before)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cE-wjYsaPj8

thanks for the video lisa :D
if the boys are not on the covers... :faint
no no no I don't want to think about it

Music : Arashi no mae no shizukesa by Arashi

yea i got the title, but what album or single was it from? i never heard it until now. it's really catchy :P

mag scans update of the guys !

Sept Popolo - http://community.livejournal.com/aznongaku/4765.html

CanCam & an.an (!!!) - http://jesychan.livejournal.com/25955.html

there's nothing raunchy going in an.an unlike MatsuJun's 1st solo photoshoot of it :innocent

really? i never would have noticed, because their voices sound the way they sound now, i think. :shrug but i love the song anyway! that fanvid is so fun.

i wish we had some more drama rumors or something. i'm bored :tipsy

I don't plan to listen to their 1st 3 albums , I can imagine how cheesy the material might be :dead2 :dead2 :dead2

i heard some of their first album last year, but i didn't finish it. i didn't really love their sound so much, lol. but i like the singles, though :yes

album wise , I listen to Iza , Now onwards

singles wise , it's from their debut all the while to now even though I must admit if you ask me to recall their older works like Tomadoinagara , Kimi no Tame ni Boku ga Iru , I need to think & listen to these tunes a few more times

yea, i like all the albums from Iza, Now!! and onwards too!

but karen, you don't like tomadoinagara? :( that song is really catchy, haha. i've always liked it.

ummm it's not that I don't like Tomadoinagara , it's just that their older works before PIKANCHI onwards take a LOT for me to remember :dead2

even I can't recall how Nice na Kokoroiki sounds like right now :dead2 but if you were to ask me to put that song on repeat sure !

It's just that I'm more familiar & able to catch hold of their singles from Hadashi no Mirai onwards

i see! well, it's understandable. they did get a new style later on, so i guess it depends on people's tastes :yes but isn't PIKANCHI great, though? lol. i wanted to watch both of the movies but i can't find it streaming with english subs ::( i can't even find it streaming, lol. on youtube all i saw was spanish subs or something.

i like "HERE WE GO!" quite a bit! :D

but yeah, i'm more...."Iza, Now" to "Time"...type of person. i think it's the best mix of sounds. not too much of their debut time, but not as mainstream as today.

PIKANCHI's ace be it the single or album version :yes

lol I know I will be decked for saying that :laugh

I might listen to their 1st 3 albums in future but definitely not now T_T . I have other stuff that I'm currently listening to at the mo

I have to say that I also don't really have an intention to listen to their early albums. I own both best of's and I don't like the first one that much, though it seems to be growing on me.

"Tomadoinagara" is playing in my mind now. lol Tomadoinagara bokutachi wa futashika na michi sagashite or something like this. ^^;

the bright side's that my sister likes How's it going ? so it's not so bad really :P

yeah the song's a grower for me too Aga

i wanted to watch yokio no mikata but i also can't find that streaming with subs :grumpy

probbably :( oh well. still love the song, though! :P

I watched last week's VS ARASHI & it was so amusing/funny when Aiba crossed over to the guests & challenged MatsuJun in the Falling Pipe game

he was annoying & harressing pretty much everyone during the Rolling Coin Tower game haha

haha the ending of the episode was amusing :laugh

I saw Everything on MTV Asia earlier on :luv2 :smitten & I guess with regards to the CD only of Ashita no Kioku / Crazy Moon , I suspect the stickers are 1st press stuff

because I was at the local HMV during my break before I head to my last tutorial of Human Resources Management & they brought in a new shipment of the single

but there weren't any stickers at the back when I checked so er I guess me & Lisa are lucky haha :laugh

===

streaming of Nino's au KDDI CM - http://community.livejournal.com/arashi_on/1923205.html

LOL at the part where he caught so many fishes in lighting quick speed o_O

sales update for singles

1, 651,377, Believe/曇りのち､快晴, , 嵐/矢野健太 starring Satoshi Ohno
2, 611,242, 明日の記憶/Crazy Moon~ｷﾐ･ﾊ･ﾑﾃｷ~, , 嵐

4, 386,193, Everything, , 嵐

man that's really crazy & nuts @_@ :dead2

crazy moon will almost outsell believe :dead2

nah I doubt that can happen at all

July's almost closing to an end & you need to sell 50K in order to overtake Believe which I doub that can happen

even though Ashita / Crazy Moon had higher 1st week sales than Believe / KNK , I don't think it can overtake Believe / KNK's total sales but you never know

another HYD Final extras subbed clip & this time round it's the Hana Yori Dango Final - Press Conference (Announcement of Filming) - http://nachosnpaprika.livejournal.com/3692.html

lmao it sounds very interesting & funny :laugh , I can't wait to watch this before I go & bath

Everything went up to #13 today !

& finally , you can download Nino @ Shounen Club Premium & it's subbed - http://mlie2968.livejournal.com/4305.html

great to see it's still charting!

i feel so behind. i didn't watch this week's episodes of anything (AnS, VS arashi...) i gotta catch up! along with my dramas :weep

a bit off topic Lisa but you haven't receive my Everything single yet ?

I hope you're able to get today or something , Sea Mail can be quite slow if you ask me :dead2 since SingPost put on their website between 6-10 weeks

@_@

you know, i've been asking my mom EVERY DAY if i got a package, lol. and i got nothing yet :( i'm sure i'll get it soon, though :yes whenever i get it, you know i PM you anyway :laugh

ok :D because you're supposed to receive something like 3 parcels from me in which all of them are sent to you by Sea Mail so :innocent

I hope you like all those extra stuff I put inside the parcel other than Everything haha :laugh

oh i'm sure i will :mischief but i'm just so excited to get them already, haha!

xD

all I can say's that Everything will not be the only ARASHI related stuff inside the parcel

there're 2 other items that're related to the guys & I have a feeling you will like them ... I hope :innocent

....omg now i'm even MORE excited, if that's even possible, lol. :tipsy

:roflmao

it's only a matter of time as to when will you get my 3 parcels , I hope it will be soon :weep

I can't wait for you to get them seriously , I think you will get Jun-baited all over again :rofl

Sakurai & Nino in Only Star - http://jesychan.livejournal.com/27344.html

wow I love that solo Sakurai shot :luv2

===

so I just watched finishing Nino's part at Shounen Club Premium

I was unfortunately quite bored with it especially it placed a LOT of emphasis on him talking about his acting with Taichi . I wanted to know how he felt about the rest of the guys in the group which didn't happened at all :(

but the upside's that Ryo did talked about Nino during the VTR segment so that's like a highlight for me & omg talking about Ryo , it's damn long overdue for him to appear on SCP !

some VS ARASHI updates

Fans of popular boy band Arashi will now be able to watch the group every week during golden time. Their show "VS Arashi" on Fuji TV is moving from its Saturday afternoon time slot (12:59pm-1:30pm) to an hour-long time slot on Thursday nights at 7:00pm. This will be Arashi's first show during golden time hours.

"VS Arashi" has been on the air since April 2008. Each episode features Arashi competing against different guest celebrities in a variety of games, such as "Falling Pipe" and "Cliff Climb."

The show will air in its new time slot starting this October.

omg I can't believe VS ARASHI has been on air since last April @_@

it seems like yesterday the guys were on a never ending losing streak & I really missed the M.D.A (Most Dame ARASHI) corner now :(

I remembered for the 1st episode where they still had that M.D.A corner , MatsuJun got it & he FREAKED out like a schoolgirl when they dropped him in the pit :laugh

.......i still can't watch it live. 7PM is like.....6AM where i live :weep

:dead2

it's a good thing I'm living in South East Asia , it will be 8pm for me if I'm able to watch it :innocent

Promo of Everything in South Korea - http://community.livejournal.com/arashi_on/1938770.html

man I want to steal that from the CD shop :P

I don't get to see such big standee's of the guys in HMV here :(

OMG One Love was played earlier on via my local chinese radio station Yes933FM *_______*

House Premium Night details - http://arashiheartie.livejournal.com/30148.html

ugh I want to be at Tokyo Disney Sea on Nov 10th ;_____; & yes Japanese fans are so lucky :grumpy

i wish i was also there :weep i'd faint just from excitement.

lol yeah you can say that again

ah I hope 3 things will happen this week

1) confirmation of that new song & also title of it in All the BEST ! since you will get that on disc 2 , regardless whether you buy the regular or the limited

2) All the BEST ! covers to be released

3) Lisa receives my parcel(s) this or next week :innocent

i'd prefer this week, karen! :laugh

but i seriously wanna see the album covers!

I kinda have a nagging feeling the covers will be out this week since it's less than 3 weeks before the album will be out & why I have to take my final exam on that day @_@ T_T :dead2

hopefully you're able to receive my parcel(s) this week since Sea Mail can be really unpredictable

I've read all the posts lol
but I had nothing to say XDD


I hope we'll have the covers this week!
I really want them! I wonder if the boys will be on the covers? I hope so!

my mom checked the mail just now...nothing :scry

i wonder how the covers will look like :shrug i want the boys to wear suits or something classy :luv2

ooooooooh I LOVE that idea.
it would be classy but at the same time sexy

let's hope they'll wear suits:luv2

not a package - but packages :laugh karen is just too much for me, haha.

but seriously, they do need to wear suits. i find that the japanese men look hotter with suits. or just by watching HYD, you can tell matsujun rocks the suit waaay too well :lech

LOL. i'm getting something from Karen also. :laugh

i'd like suits also! they look so clean in them. :) anything but a lame design & lame text, please JE. Arashi's had some good covers lately though, so hopefully JE won't mess things up this time. :dead2

nino's drama SP with inoue mao will be aired in september! :D

aw :(

hopefully you're getting them somewhere this or in weeks to come :dead2 & yes Eirynne will be getting some thing(s) from me this week 8D & the week to come lmao lmao lmao xD

I would love that too :D :yes

Has anything been announced yet regarding tv promotion for the best of album? It would be great if they performed some of their old hits on tv. :)

And that's interesting about VS arashi - the ratings must have been great on Sat. afternoon for them to expand the show to an hour and move it to golden time. Though 30mins seems to be the perfect length for that show.

as far as I know , I haven't seen any form of promo going on for All the BEST ! yet but yeah it will be awesome if they performed their older hits like Jidai on TV :heart

it has been quite quiet in the ARASHI fandom right now but I'm sure all that will changed in weeks to come :yes

covers are not out yet & let alone the mysterious new song that will be included in All the BEST !

I hope some new updates will materialise this or next week , kinda have a nagging feeling it might be this week :shrug

It's nice that VS Arashi got moved to a different slot, but the longer version could become draggy. Like those SP. They're nice, but feel draggy. Will they play more games then? 4 or 5? That would mean that probably new ones will be added to the show. ^^

I'm quite sure the guys will play more games

within 30 mins , they only had time for 3 games so they probably might extend when the time slot for the game show moves to Thurs night in Oct

I hope they will play even more of Bank Bowling & Jumping Shooter :yes

did anyone saw last week's VS ARASHI ? it was kinda like a 2 hours digest & they played quite a lot of games during a BBQ

& as usual , Sakurai blew it -_-'''

my younger sister keeps on going :dead2 as to why her hubby is just basically BAD at everything -_-'''

Nino in the Sept issues of MORE & with magazines - http://jesychan.livejournal.com/28148.html

I don't like his hair in the 3rd pic of with :no , he looks ... weird in there :dead2 but other than that , he's looking pretty good even though my middle sister's not feeling his new hairdo at the mo .____.

his hair for the butai isn't really that bad to me. but i want his WISH era hair back. or his hair from last summer. but honestly, i prefer nino always with short hair :yes

as long as he doesn't have that Step and Go PV hair again :dead2 , it's ok with me haha

but that 3rd pic of him in with magazine , the centre parting going on in there's a bit o_O

i saw yesterday's AnS just now, and shinohara-san from gokusen was the guest! such a coincidence, seeing as how i'm watching gokusen :laugh that guy REALLY dosen't seem to age, an he's like...40 something :irked aibaland was funny, too. jun's funny face expression was hilarious (but a bit scary :laugh)

sooo.....covers? pleaseeee. i wanna see them already! :grumpy

LOL LOL LOL

My younger sister downloaded this week's AnS already . She hasn't watched it yet I think she will do so soon

& yeah it looks really stupid/funny as always & Aibaland's just golden :laugh

I hope the covers for All the BEST will be out soon :yes
