[KAT-TUN] WATER DANCE -the KAT-TUN thread XII- ♫

[ayumisrael]

Thank you Karen! XD

Though even I did a better job looking for high quality covers
I might read your reviews later after I come back from work. ^-^
I just didn't find one for Break the Records

Here you go for anyone's who is interested. ^^










I love my junno and koki ^^.

I don't like QOP cover =\ reminds me nsync.
The others are great. =D

Yay! I contributed to KAT-TUN's thread!

[KarenPang]

I don't like QOP cover =\ reminds me nsync.

OK that's a 1st for me LMAO

I actually scanned & uploaded both editions of Break the Records's covers via my jpop scans thread though

& it's nice to have you around to contribute on here for sure even though I hope Eirynne doesn't mind me for 'spamming' on here @_@

[Aga-chan]

I've usually seen the coloured version of cKIIYOU and I must say that I prefer the other version.

the 3rd cover for cartoon KAT-TUN II you :



this contains a booklet & YOU

I don't really like the photos that much in the booklet unfortunately

[ayumisrael]

My favorite cover of cartoon KAT-TUN is the one I posted where both my favorites, junno and koki wear cross necklaces.
They correlated because they know they are mine

How many versions are there for each album?
And in KAT-TUN's disco dls the albums are uploaded in the maximum versions? (I mean with all of the songs in the albums?) xD thanks as always.

ooo Karen where is your jpop scans thread? =D

[ll moments ll]

i love the Limited Edition of cartoon KAT-TUN the best! i'm glad that's the version i got, LOL. 8D

there are usually multiple versions for KAT-TUN albums (& other JE ones as well). it's usually 2 versions, but "cartoon KAT-TUN II You" has 3 versions (a normal edition, a photobook edition, & the limited with a bonus CD). but the rest have 2 (a normal & limited edition). the Limited Editions are usually the ones i get, but my "Break the Records" is the Normal due to the bonus track "MOON".

it kinda sucks sometimes because you get conflicted about which editions to buy since each edition has something different. not only albums, but singles AND concert DVDs too. @_@;;

yes, i ripped all my collection at 320 kbps, which is the highest! i can rip lower if anyone wants to preserve space on their music players though. just give me a PM~!

& the reason why i'm a KAT-TUN fan more than the others is because of their music too. to me, it has substance and it doesn't have the typical j-idol feel to it most of the time. & like Karen, i love the rock-influence. they're really good with modern dance music too. imo.

[Beauty4123]

OMFG SHUN, TAKAKI, NARIMIYA, AND ESPECIALLY KAME ALL LOOK SO GOOD!!!!

.......but why isn't jin and matsujun in it?! was seto kouji in it, btw? i think i saw him too, but it all went by so fast miura haruma's looking hot too

[ll moments ll]

^ omg ikr. it's so nostalgic seeing the transformations from Gokusen 1 & 2 to the movie. @_@;; i totally didn't recognize Ishigaki Yuma in G1 because he looked so different in G1 versus now (he also played the leader of the karate group? class in Hana Kimi. LOL.)

i think i know who you're referring to, but i don't think it's Seto Kouji. just some kid that looks like him. i think he's a Johnny's Junior, actually. is it that Tamamori kid? IDK. xD

Kame said Hayato (Jin's character) got stuck in Los Angeles LOLLOL...but idk why MatsuJun isn't in it. too busy, perhaps? since he's got "Smile" to do.

[Beauty4123]

LOL he actually said that jin's character was in LA? that's very fitting!

yea, jun was probbably too busy. such a pity but kame really does look good, though. the hottest i've seen him ever since one pound gospel.

[ll moments ll]

yeah, he said it during the concert MCs.
i think the full story went like....Odagiri Ryu & Yabuki Hayato went to study abroad in Los Angeles together and when they were supposed to return back to Japan, there was only 1 ticket. and they fought for the ticket & Ryu won. LOL.

Kame & that crazy brain of his.

but hopefully Sawada Shin (MatsuJun) & Yabuki Hayato (Jinnifer) are mentioned in the movie, whether it be in dialogue or pictures, if they aren't able to show up at least.

for bonus tracks wise for each albums

Best of KAT-TUN - Real Face #1 ; only found in the regular edition . You will not find this in the special debut box

cartoon KAT-TUN :

normal & 1st press editions (1 CD for each) - YOU

2 CDs limited edition which Eirynne & I have - you will not find YOU in here . Instead , a 2nd CD containing 7 songs which they did since their junior days :

1) Freeze
2) LOVE or LIKE
3) FIGHT ALL NIGHT
4) HEARTBREAK CLUB
5) MY ANGEL , YOU ARE ANGEL
6) NO MATTER ・ MATTER
7) Peacefuldays

LOVE or LIKE is cowritten by Akanishi while MY ANGEL YOU ARE ANGEL's composed by Tackey

QUEEN OF PIRATES - 4 bonus tracks ie. SHOT ! , 12 o' clock , Ai no Command & SIX SENSES . All found in the CD + DVD edition

SIX SENSES's the only 'old' song in the record & also the only one written soley by Tanaka , be it rap or non rap

he usually's in charge of all his rapping lyrics but not this one

Break the Records - bonus track MOON which's found in the normal edition

that's why I bought both the normal & the limited editions in a non music way or 2 HAHA xD

as always don't mention it Eirynne

new single ? - yeah I saw it on LJ too . Not sure frankly . Do you & can you see the guys providing the theme song for the Gokusen movie since they didn't do it for Gokusen 1/2/3 (ie. if you count or don't count Kame's solo Kizuna in a way or so)

so Akanishi's character will not be appearing in Gokusen movie after all (source - http://www.tokyograph.com/news/id-4862)

guess it's because of Bandage (what's the plot all about again ? I totally am blank in here )

no DREAMBOYS's a stageplay started by 1 of the most respected seniors in Johnny's , Takizawa Hideaki .

Eirynne said in the NEWS thread it's about boxing . I don't think Tackey hems it anymore but previously Kanjani8 , KAT-TUN acted in it .

This coming Sept , Kanjani8's Subaru & Kame will return to act in it & it will be a 1st time for a NEWS member to participate in it

[ll moments ll]

seeing Kamenashi has a big role instead of a cameo like the rest of the other Gokusen alumni, i think they could sing theme. either KAT-TUN or Hey! Say! JUMP...but who knows.

BANDAGE, from what i've read is about the struggles of making it to the music industry? i think Jin's the leader/main vocalist of the band.

actually, i watched a news clip about the Gokusen movie & i think they wanted to level out the cameos. 3 from each season (Kame not included in the list since he's a lead). so maybe they left Jin out of the picture. lol sad.

DREAM BOYS is a musical. it was originally led by Takizawa Hideaki, but left to do other projects, so Kamenashi is lead. it's about boxing. the champion is usually led by a KANJANI8 member, like Subaru, & Kamenashi plays the challenger. it's a competition between the 2. complete with frilly outfits & songs~! 8)

from DB2006, Kame killed Subaru in the ring. LMAO. but i wonder how this one will be with Tegoshi.

[Beauty4123]

you know, i'd kinda rather have HSJ release a single for the gokusen movie, just because they NEED to release a single already! lol.

jin's movie sounds interesting, though. i'm pretty sure KT will sing for that when it's released.

[ll moments ll]

yeahhhh, i hear you, Lisa. though, my reason is for financial ones (irene's wallet needs a break). LOL. i don't mind waiting for a fall KT release since i think JE needs to focus on the other groups too! & KT's releasing a summer photobook, so i know i'll be spending money nevertheless. D:

oh that sounds interesting

I wonder whether will it opened in cinemas here next year ? cos yesterday Kuroki Meisa's Dance Subaru ! was so maybe for Bandage & let alone Gokusen the movie , hopefully ?

I mean if Kurosagi the movie & Hana Yori Dango Final were shown here I don't see why Bandage & Gokusen the movie cannot do that at all

from DB2006, Kame killed Subaru in the ring. LMAO. but i wonder how this one will be with Tegoshi.

LOL LOL

I think it was natural for Kame to act as Kosaku in IchiPon because he did an amazing job in it

never ever fails to bring in the laughter for me xD xD & I can't imagine Kame Vs Tegoshi

Now Akanishi Vs Tegoshi in the boxing ring , it's a different thing cos well you know

mmmm

Gokusen movie - I can't picture myself in seeing/hearing HSJ do it . KAT-TUN maybe ?

then again I have no idea , it might be someone else

haha

yeah no material releases for the moment PLEASE

I'm already tapped out dry & I just blew even more $ on 3 singles that I got them earlier on at the local HMV @_@

& I still be buying stuff in weeks to come , all the way til mid July already now

luckily I have no plans to buy their new photobook . Soft copies are good enough for me even though my hands are a bit itchy in whether should I get Kami no Shizuku photobook at the local Kinokuniya @_@
