ka♡ri. · #1 21st March 2009, 08:28 PM

Hi Arashi !
This year is their TENTH ANNIVERSARY
So it's gonna be a year full of Arashi Love !
They are one of Johnny's Entertainment's most successful groups !
They debuted aboard a cruise ship in Hawai'i in 1999 !
They are the most popular JE group outside of Japan !
They are the most talented TV personalities, actors and musicians in JE (imho ok. ) !
♥

大野智
♥ Ohno became Arashi's leader because of a Rock-Paper-Scissors game! He didn't even want to be the leader!
♥ Arashi's mama's boy! He says his mom still buys his clothes!
♥ Known for his amazing artistic ability!

松本潤
♥ Jun is an elite in Johnny's - meaning that he is one of the few who didn't have to audition to make it into JE!
♥ Known as the "bait" to Arashi thanks to his good looks and acting roles!
♥ Although the youngest, he's the most serious about Arashi's work!

二宮和也
♥ Nino is currently obsessed with magic tricks which is why he's always performing them on TV! It's almost eclipsed his love for his DS!
♥ Has made his Hollywood debut in Clint Eastwoods Letters from Iwo Jima!
♥ Loves to play jokes and pranks on other members!

櫻井翔
♥ Sho may seem to be the most manly in the group - but he's the biggest scaredy cat!
♥ Inspired many of his kouhai to attend college after getting into Keio University!
♥ Also hosts the popular news show NEWS ZERO!

相葉雅紀
♥ Aiba enjoys animals which lead him to work on Tensai! Shimura Dobutsuen where he often gets to work (hilariously) with wild animals!
♥ Joined Johnny's only to meet his idol Miyake Ken and play basketball with SMAP!
♥ Loves speaking English - even though he's not too great at it![/center]

PLS FINISH OTHER THREAD 1ST!!!!

omg you guys. I updated the sales of other albums and singles (the numbers are from january so they're kinda off) - but One, ARASHIC, D"A"L, Time, 5x5, Single Collection, Happiness and Love so sweet were all in the top 100! and from my old sales each sold at least over 5k more - Time even sold about 15k more from when I last updated it! I'm so happy!

ka♡ri. · #2 21st March 2009, 09:10 PM

hey - lets use this one.
i'll have to get the other 2 deleted. @_@

KarenPang · #3 22nd March 2009, 04:02 AM

yay for another new thread

Beauty4123 · #4 22nd March 2009, 04:16 AM

hot graphics

ka♡ri. · #5 22nd March 2009, 04:22 AM

^
the wall calendar is definitely full of sexiness!

and i love the colors~
all the red made it even hotter.

how's Believe/KnK charting?

Beauty4123 · #6 22nd March 2009, 04:27 AM

^ it was from #8 to now #4

btw, at the end of this week's VS arashi, they show a CM for the AAA DVD.

KarenPang · #7 22nd March 2009, 04:35 AM

scan of Aiba in Only Star - http://creamy-amande.livejournal.com/15616.html

wow he looks great

ll moments ll · #8 22nd March 2009, 05:19 AM

i LOVE enhacing red on graphics in general, so that's why i'm a fan of Mika Ninagawa (the photographer of the wall calendar). her use of red is AMAAAAAZING.

nice to see "Believe" @ #4 today.

Aga-chan · #9 22nd March 2009, 09:08 AM

First time seeing the calendar pics. lol Yeah, I'm late. xD But they're great. ^^

ka♡ri. · #10 22nd March 2009, 02:31 PM

^lol better late than never!
you should check out the rest - Arashi's calendar was really great this year!

KarenPang · #11 22nd March 2009, 02:55 PM

I don't know about you but I don't really like their new calendar's pics that much , it's just all over the place , colour wise & my younger sister wanted to order it locally but she changed her mind after she saw the photos

+ it's so expensive too

I prefer NEWS's as they're more simple & straight to the point & they all looked great in there

ANYWAY before I get egged by Kaori & Lisa (joke

) , did you guys see the latest VS ARASHI ?

the Falling Pipe game was

&

at maximum capacity man , poor Aiba hit his head accidentally or not when he went up to try to catch a pipe or 2 but that failed HORRIBLY

Lisa I don't need you to upload part 2 of the file for me now thanks

ka♡ri. · #12 22nd March 2009, 03:17 PM

^lol - the only calendar's i liked this year was Arashi's and Kanjani8's (even though I don't really like them). Arashi's had nice pictures and Kanjani8's were natural. I haven't even bothered to DL NEWS'.

I haven't seen VS ARASHI in a while. =[
is it the one w/ Hiroki Narimiya?

yes & I think he's pretty hot

I hope Kumori Nochi Kaisei will be played later on here

, the local radio station just played KAT-TUN's On Your Mind -Please come back to me- as part of their weekly Sun night j/kpop segment & I went

on hearing it

Beauty4123 · #14 22nd March 2009, 04:06 PM

hiroki narimiya is SO HOT. his smile =

okay karen! glad you were able to watch the show

arisu_1love · #15 22nd March 2009, 04:09 PM

Omg yes! Narimiya is the one who acted in NANA the movie, right? He's hot.
And kaori, I super love your avatar and banner set!
I've been outta touch with the Arashi fandom lately, so sad.... It's only been three weeks and uni works are piling up.

KarenPang · #16 22nd March 2009, 04:16 PM

Thanks for understanding Lisa &

you didn't really miss that much Alice , if you think keeping up with the ARASHI fandom's tough , wait til you try KAT-TUN , it's worst

& YAY my 2 OS presses/ CD + DVD's of Believe / KNK will be mailed out by my Taiwanese friend Cliff tomorrow

he said that he will be throwing in another photo surprise for me O_O

too bad he didn't said who's the person in question in the photo T_T .. I'm hoping for an Ueda one this time round but I don't think it will happen bah

Beauty4123 · #17 23rd March 2009, 03:54 AM

omg i just checked jpophelp's website, and my believe single is back to being listed on the site! which means they must have or will be getting it in, so it shouldn't be too long until i FINALLY get the CD

before it wasn't listed at all, so i'm really relieved and i have positive hopes

and thanks for the scans Karen.
i'm loving Sho's shots in MORE!

ka♡ri. · #20 24th March 2009, 12:01 AM

OMG. I don't care about double posting - this is important.

ARASHI IS AT NUMBER 3 TODAY ON THE CHARTS!!
WTF! TOP 3 AFTER ALL THIS TIME! I'M SO HAPPY!
(KAT-TUN is at number 4!!! I'm glad RESCUE is charting so well - it is sooooo much better than ONE DROP. )
