Popping in as a non-ARASHI fan here.

I happened to chance upon the ARASHI docu series while browsing Netflix and watched the first episode (I'm assuming it'll be released weekly) and I have to say I'm quite keen to watch the entire series as it comes out. It seems very introspective and you get to see the members reflecting very seriously. So serious, in fact, that it can come off as pretty sombre. Though I have to say, I feel like the editing in the first episode feels very choppy and rushed. Perhaps they wanted to squeeze a lot of different contents into the first episode to give the viewers a context as to how much of a whirlwind it has been right before and right after the hiatus announcement. However, that choppiness carried on to their individual interviews which can be a lil bit annoying. That said, I really enjoy seeing this personal side of the ARASHI members and I'm excited to see the rest.
