And that sucks that you don't have time for their older stuff.
It's really great. Iza, Now! is their best album IMO.

I really enjoyed Arashic!! But now that you say that Iza, Now! is good... well... let's check Amazon Japan and Yahoo Auctions, ehehehe!!

Great scans. And yes, Leader never used to be my favourite, but he's getting up there, especially after seeing him in concert. He's such a loser-dork, but I like that!!!

ARASHIC - yeah I really enjoyed the whole album . I guess outta the 4 albums that I have of them (One , ARASHIC , Time & Dream"A"live) , I consider ARASHIC to be my fave outta the whole lot at the moment cos the non singles songs on there are strong .

LOL Captain a loser ? nah ...

but I'm surprised that Sakurai's such a scary cat after I watched the sub episode of MS that took place on 20th June

poor boy lol

EDIT :

SINGLES
x->1 - YUI - 18,348 (x1.75) = 32,109
x->2 - VAMPS - 15,892 (x1.75) = 27,811
1->3 - ARASHI - 4,546 + 4,618 (x1.75) = 16,037

as expected ARASHI has drop from the top & I'm not surprised that YUI has taken the top spot for the 1st day

but the sales are very low , such a sharp difference compared to last week

*randomly pops in*
That was the same with me, when I first got into them I really only had eyes for Jun and Sho. But after watching all their host shows I found riida to be amazingly adorable!!!XD He's now my favorite next to Jun, yes simply just for his idiotic lameness

And I love ARASHIC as well, its my second favourite album of theirs matched with Iza, Now! I actually like Time the best though, for me all the songs on their are strong. The only ones I'm not too into is Everybody Zenshin! and WAVE..but thats only because I don't like the introductions otherwise I think they're great!

this's going to sound 'amazing' but the 1st thing that attracted me to ARASHI was NOT the members but rather it's their music

for me I always place music over looks but of course now's different

yeah ARASHIC's really good & so's Time & Dream"A"live

I guess these 3 albums have their strong & weak points but in general I like all 3 of them

KarenPang · #**326** 2nd July 2008, 12:32 PM

why's Ohno called Riida ?

I thought he usually known as Leader / Captain ?

Beauty4123 · #**327** 2nd July 2008, 12:46 PM

i guess they prounounce leader as riida in japanese? lol.

anyway, at least the boys are #3, considering all the new releases are out.

TITANIC · #**328** 2nd July 2008, 12:51 PM

22 *,286,897 **2,020 Dream"A"live / 嵐 08/04/23

haha I only heard of Arashi back then because I was jun baited. I liked MatsuJun for his acting rather then his looks. And I just started off watching his dramas. I didn't even know they were the ones who sang WISH until I actually checked them out. So I did like their music, but its not exactly the first thing that I looked into..

and yeah Riida is leader when pronounced in Japanese syllables, its just another name that fans call him by~

guess the signature banner of mine speaks the truth aka JunBait

for me what sparked my interest in them is when Ken Hirai said that he was so obsessed with Kitto Daijoubu during his Ken's Bar '06 Winter performance which led me to wonder why's so good about that song

now I know why

TITANIC · #**331** 2nd July 2008, 01:24 PM

^ aww really? what.. that's good.. I dont know about their album sales..hoho

yeah Ryo bcos their highest selling album's their debut album

I think the sales for that was about 320K +

that's the thing for JE bands , their albums sales are nothing to shout about

baka-ranger · #**333** 2nd July 2008, 01:34 PM

you signature is the story of my life

And thats really cool that Ken Hirai mentioned them X3 lol everyone was obsessed with Kitto Daijoubu and the pv for it..I could watch that all day

Spoiler:

I just thought the pic's so funny , I might as well use it as my signature

PV - yeah the PV's fantastic & really colourful . It's awesome . I still say that if I didn't know that Ken Hirai was obsessed with the song , I wouldn't have known about ARASHI's music & the guys themselves .

During his Ken's Bar '06 Winter performance , he mentioned that he was obsessed with the video & wanted to do the dance moves but he feared that it will damage his reputation

anyway he's a lousy dancer to begin with

you can see the clip without subs via http://megavideo.com/?v=HY15O87D

he also mentioned something about Sakurai too . I think about Sakurai's rapping cos Ken was intimidating his Sakurap in there heh

haha nice

baka-ranger · #**335** 2nd July 2008, 01:50 PM

LOL I dare you to use that as your signature XD Although I'm worried it might give people the wrong impression on Arashi gahaha

I'm with Ken, It'd be so fun learning to dance to that

My friend and I already mastered NEWS' Taiyou no Namida

So does Ken Hirai rap like Sakurai (OMG they rhyme =O)in that video link? *Goes to see*

haha but I think the pic on my signature banner's funny & quirky

Sakurai - you can see that almost at the end of the clip , Ken Hirai was rapping like Sakurai , I don't know what he said about Sakurai though but Ken was able to mimic Sakurap quite well

it's cute

EDIT -- http://youtube.com/watch?v=IVJFWL7BEGc

omg they performed the FINAL REMIX at the Hana Yori Dango Final Special , TBS on 27th last month !

MatsuJun was acting like Tsusaka in there

in the beginning ie.

baka-ranger · #**337** 2nd July 2008, 01:59 PM

hehe yeah thats the special I was talking about earlier in the hyd thread.

I'm really happy they performed the FINAL remix, but I'm kind of disappointed with how they performed it

Spoiler:

I love the L=LOVE thing

Its cool how jun just changes in and out of his character the whole time.

KarenPang · #**338** 2nd July 2008, 02:02 PM

I think where parts of the HYD Final movie was shown at the back of the screen especially when One Love was done , I was looking at that more than the guys themselves

I swear the 1st part of the video , MatsuJun was acting like his character Domyoji !

the part where MatsuJun was topless on the screen = <3

^ yeah he's doing the same bit like in epi.4 of the first season, that parts so funny, and its so random LMFAO

heh

in a way he's cute when he does that

either that or it's the perm hairdo that's talking

I'm just glad in a way that after the whole HYD's finished , he will not sport any perm hairdo anymore
