win formula

Ever since I saw previews of WU of sho kun with the kids, i've been in a daze ^^;
And when i saw the entire spread of Sho goodness, i'm totally weak in my knees and half the time in lala-land XD

What made me even more excitable was to read that it was the rest of the members that chose the theme for Sho chan...reason being is because it's just very Sho kun (翔くんらしい). I couldn't agree more.
Sho + kids = WIN

I'm totally glad to see how he's matured since his 良い子の味方days.. where the kids actually thought he's stuck up XD But now, the 3 little boys in the photoshoot truly look like they are enjoying themselves with papa sho! To play catching and tossing them around...awww, it's just so sweeeet! Can't help but remember Sho chan putting Koharu-chan to sleep as well... totally adorable! What else can I say except that he's purrrfect!!  
*continues to be in puddle of goo state*

Arashi kai + major shock!

found out something that i totally never expected.....and it wasn't just me alone...lol

だいショック　*_____*

...what a great way to end the Arashi kai.. ^^;;

but other than that major shock, i had fun ^__^ BBQ and fangirling over Kokuritsu, Time and Iza Now dvd XDD Saikou!! Mochi's so sweet to bring back omiyage for us <33 Gummy sweets..i like!

Mitsuya Cider

 

Tired after screaming so much...shall head to bed as soon as i get over my shock...XD

Ashita no Kioku (full version)

kyaaaaa~ Daisuki!! I love the song <333

Many thanks to arashijuuuu2 for the radio rip and lyrics!

Ashita no kioku

....Super happy I don't have to work today ;DD And Arashi kai tomorrow! yatta! Looking forward despite just having one just 3 days ago XDD

Motto oppai kudasai!

This episode is awesomely hilarious!! i couldn't stop laughing!! ahahahaha

I like Ayase Haruka from Hotaru no Hikari. She's tennen cute. And our boys are really full blooded males with loads of ecchi behaviour today! lol!

I was wondering if Haruka chan was gonna say “セクハラ~！”(sexual harrassment) with them having so much oppai jokes. Good that she was more amused than offended XDD

I was equally excited that Ogu san was so enthusiastic and vocal in this episode. He really clicks well on the same topic with Arashi..hahaa!

We can kinda tell who are boob-guys from this episode! XDD We had quite a number of pairings in this episode.. Nakimushi eating oppai pudding, Sakuraiba, SJ hug(!!!!!!...i was just grumbling to Dun last night that there was a drought of SJ and my wish was fulfilled ;DD) Ohmiya was erotic. Did anyone hear and notice the tone of voice Nino used on Ohchan? XDD And his hand went right smack on Ohchan's butt. I positively heard the audience kyaaing amidst mine xD

Simply must add that Sho chan is sooo adorkable!!! kyaaa!!! i need a separate post to spazz just on him xDD

And yes, i know i've been a terrible neighbour, hardly commenting much though i always check my hood. Thanks for all the updates! I have been really busy..so many management meetings to attend and so little time to do my own work! >_<  But thanks to the boys making me laugh so much, i feel some of the pent up stress relieved! <33

And I totally second Sho chan... motto ARASHI no Oppai Bakuhatsu kun kudasai!!!! ;DDD

PS: I need HDTV for this episode!! ...For now, i shall proceed to convert this episode into mp4 to save in my phone XD

Switch

The previous issue with Arashi on Switch was quite a while back and i couldn't really remember how they looked like. I went to find it and i was quite unexpectedly surprised to notice that GAP again between Sho and Jun!

Next, i also realised the order in which they were standing...

Aiba Ohno  Nino   Sho     Jun  
(notice the spacings i left between their names? trying to show the distance between them XD)

Switch vol 25

And this current issue....it's in the reverse order!

Sho     Jun   Nino  Ohno Aiba

Switch vol 27

Well...other than Jun and Sho that swapped places. The reason? Sho was displeased that during the last issue, Jun stood so far away from him...and so, this round, it's revenge! XDDD

Lols... i know it's really lame ^^;;; Blame the lack of sleep XD

Other sneaks...

Switch vol 27-1

Switch vol 27-2

Credits: yahoo auctions

Other than that, I think i'm loving the photoshoot already! <33 Can't wait to get mine!

Switch & CUT

again!! >"<

just by looking at the cover of Switch, i really wanna throw SJ into the meat freezer >_< they are standing sooooooo far apart as compared to the spaces between the rest T_T It doesn't surprise me... but oh well, one can hope, ne? XD really hope there's more SJ love beyond the cover ^^;;

and sakurai san, i gasped out loud when i saw the CUT scans!!! i was mentally prepared when i read abt the topless shot and him brushing his teeth.......even still, seeing with my own to eyes is totally different! XD *dies*

odoroki SP

fune again?!? i thought they declared it was the last ever experiment with their DIY boat ^^;;

Fune

Fune 2

but i have high hopes now........lego blocks......plastic can't fail u....i guess? XD

 

And shukudai was funny! they should let Ohchan play MC more! the niko niko smile was cuuute!

The Piii" censoring part almost felt as if Ohchan wanted to know when Jun kun's first kiss...and Jun kept staring and giving looks to Ohchan but failed! done on purpose i feel XDDD

Pict Up 0904

A comment from the interviewer towards the end mentions about Sho kun and i loosely translate:
When we ask him questions pertaining to himself as an individual, he will somehow or other revert it back to Arashi. To him, it seems as if the changes of the group as a whole has a deeper meaning to him rather than focusing only on his individual growth.

Aww... it's always like this with Arashi. every member not for themselves only, but thinking about each other and wanting to grow together <333

sho mags overdrive!

It's raining men Sho!! Hallelujah, it's raining men Sho~! Amen! XDD

I'm definitely not complaining about it...well....maybe my wallet is letting out some protest..but seriously, Sho kun's smoking hot in the recent mags!! kyaaaaaaa~!! If i had to choose, probably CUT and Pict Up are my favourites so far ^^

I loved the effect for this! It's as if his eyes were piercing right into mine *__*

0903 CUT 08

And how dorky cute can he get here in Pict Up <333

0904 Pict Up 09

The shots with Doronjo-san are awesome too. Really kakko ii~!

Another more serious looking one from Barfout! in black & white. Looks nice for a change ne~^^

0903 Barfout! 03

And Nonno's special issue of Arashi is pretty, Sho chan in a pink scarf!! <333 Aiba chan in a beanie XD

Believe PV and album cover preview

...The attack of the rainbow is back!! XDDD

The LE version 2 of Believe with Ohchan has rainbows in the background. This is so Arashi~lols

It's indeed the first time for any member to appear solo in any album!

LE 1:            RE:

ok...is it me but sho chan's jawline looks very sharp here? o_O photoshop huh.....

Anyway, lemme just say how much i'm in love with Believe PV!! it is very Truth-like, and i sooo adore Truth! kyaaaa!! The dark setting when all 5 are dancing together and then individually dancing between the two waterfalls is nice. Although i think the trees in the background are really random! ^^"

I hope they talk about the choreography and filming the PV, and whether Aiba chan could remember the steps and sing at the same time! XD looking forward to live performances~!! <33

Smile

Yatta! TBS saikou!! Friday 10pm slot is almost by default reserved for Arashi XDD
heard of this uwasa with gaki as co-star and it's finally announced!

I'd take off my hat to Gaki if she can pull this role off since she basically acts just using body language only! Her character, due to some reason in the past, caused her to be voiceless, but her smile is as bright as the sun (as what Sponichi calls it XD) How she'd get through the entire drama without speaking and yet able to convey the story is going to be interesting as well as challenging i think.

And for Jun kun, he plays a half filipino, dad is a filipino, mum is a Japanese. Plays a realist who wants to be a person full of life (リアリティーある人間味あふれた人物像にしたい..lol, how do explain 人間味? ^^;;).

So, i guess it'd be a new single and coupling song will be Kose's Esprique Precious CM song..? :D It's only Feb and things are just about to get more "exciting" XD

I'm glad Jun kun's taking it easy now and enjoying time with his friends and time for himself before things get hectic ^^

マツジュン＆ガッキー、連続ドラマで初共演

　嵐の松本潤（２５）と人気アイドル、新垣結衣（２０）が４月スタートのＴＢＳ系連続ドラマ「スマイル」（金曜後１０・０）で初共演することが１１日、分かった。

　主演の松本演じる日本人とフィリピン人のハーフ、ビトや新垣扮する失声症を抱えながらも純粋に生きるヒロイン、花が、笑顔の奥に隠した秘密や過去の傷を通じ人間愛を育んでいくヒューマンラブストーリー。若い２人に接するミーハー弁護士役で中井貴一（４７）が１２年ぶりに同局のドラマに出演する。

　松本は「ハードルの高いキャラクターですが、リアリティーある人間味あふれた人物像にしたい」と意欲十分。新垣も「精神的な理由で声が出せない女の子という役は、私の中で今までにない設定。懸命に取り組んでいきたい」と“スマイル”で誓っている。

松潤が日本人とフィリピン人のハーフ役

   嵐の松本潤（２５）がＴＢＳ系連続ドラマ「スマイル」（４月スタート、金曜午後９時）に主演する。フィリピン人の父親と日本人の母親を持ち、自分の生い立ちにコンプレックスを抱えながらも笑顔を絶やさず、明るく生きる青年ビトを演じる。

　「花より男子」を手掛けた宅間孝行氏が書き下ろしたオリジナル作品。ビトと声を失った少女、弁護士のそれぞれの笑顔に秘められた思いや過去が交差していくヒューマンラブストーリー。ヒロインの少女を新垣結衣（２０）、弁護士を中井貴一（４７）が演じる。

松潤、ハーフ役挑戦！エキゾチックに変身

　人気グループ「嵐」の松本潤（２５）が、４月スタートのＴＢＳ系新ドラマ「スマイル」（金曜・後１０時）に主演する。「人間愛」をテーマにした重厚な社会派ドラマというコンセプトのもと、日本とフィリピンのハーフの青年を演じる。共演は新垣結衣（２０）と中井貴一（４７）。人気シリーズ「花より男子」でもチームを組んだ演出家で俳優の宅間孝行（３８）が脚本を担当する。

　松本が演じるのは、フィリピン人の父と日本人の母の間に生まれたハーフの青年ビト。父親とは死別し、母親は行方不明という不遇な境遇にも負けず、人種や生い立ちにまつわる悩みを抱えながらも、常に笑顔を絶やさず、前向きに生きている。

　松本にとってはハーフという役柄は初めて。ドラマのビトは日本で生まれ育ったという設定で、日本語も普通に話すが、外見的な役作りとして、髪をストレートヘア(straight hair!!)にするなどエキゾチックな雰囲気を出すという。「ハードルの高いキャラクターですが、リアリティーのある、人間味あふれる人物にしたいと思っています」。これまでにない難役で新境地に挑む。

　同ドラマは脚本家として「サタケミキオ」のペンネームを使ってきた宅間が、本名に戻して執筆する社会派ドラマ。「スマイル」というタイトルには、松本、新垣、中井が演じる三者三様のキャラクターが見せる笑顔の裏の秘密や過去から、人間愛をあぶり出すという意図が込められている。

　新垣は、ある事件を契機に失声症となりながらも明るく生きる少女・花役。「私の中で今までにない役の設定なので、戸惑うこともあると思いますが、しっかり『スマイル』の世界になじむよう懸命に取り組んでいきたいと思います」。花も宅間が主宰する劇団に実際にいた女優がモデルという。

　また「ふぞろいの林檎たち４」以来、約１２年ぶりにＴＢＳの連ドラに出演する中井は２人を見守る弁護士・伊東を演じる。

松潤＆ガッキー　笑顔がポイント！ドラマ初共演

　４月スタートのＴＢＳドラマで「嵐」の松本潤（２５）と女優の新垣結衣（２０）が初共演する。番組名は「スマイル」（金曜後１０・００）。松本はフィリピン人と日本人のハーフ、新垣は失声症の役でセリフがない。これまでとは、ひと味もふた味も違う演技に挑む２人のラブストーリーを軸に、人間愛がテーマの重厚なドラマを目指す。

　主演の松本は父がフィリピン人で母が日本人の設定。明るく活発で常に笑顔を絶やさないが、その裏で苦労をした過去を持つ青年役だ。

　松本は「ハードルの高いキャラクターですが、リアリティーのある、人間味あふれる人物にしたいと思っています」と意欲満々。初共演となる新垣と偶然、あるスタジオで会い「“頑張りましょう！”とエールの交換をしました」という。

　ヒロインの新垣は、ある出来事が原因で失声症となり、言葉は発しないが、太陽のような明るい笑顔の純粋な少女を演じる。表情とボディーランゲージだけで感情を表現する難役。セリフなしの演技が注目を集めそうだ。一方で、まぶしい笑顔の役どころとあって、明るいガッキー・スマイルも画面からあふれる。

　新垣は「私の中で今までにない役設定なので、戸惑うこともあると思いますが、しっかり“スマイル”の世界になじむよう懸命に取り組んでいきたいと思います」と意気込んでいる。

　この２人に信頼される弁護士役で中井貴一（４７）が絡む。ＴＢＳの連続ドラマは９７年の「ふぞろいの林檎たち４」以来となる。中井も人を食ったような笑い顔がキャラクターとなる予定で、瀬戸口克陽プロデューサーは「笑顔がこのドラマを象徴する重要なキーワードなので、スマイルというタイトルにしました」と説明している。
