I might be just a little bit late... but I've just finished listening to "THE DIGITALIAN" & I love it so incredibly much!

I've always enjoyed listening to Arashi's albums, it wasn't any different for this one. It was so much fun to listen to! I've already loved the singles, with "GUTS !" probably being my most favorite, "Daremo Shiranai" comes second. The album tracks totally did not disappoint me, either. I love each one of them! If I had to choose just one favorite, though, I'm pretty sure it would be "Asterisk", but "TRAP" & (of course ) Matsujun's solo "STAY GOLD" are my other close favorites, too. I thought "Hope in the darkness" was absolutely amazing, too. And I can't help but love Arashi's rapping in "Take Off !!!!!", it's tons of fun to listen to!

Overall, I would say that "THE DIGITALIAN" is totally one of Arashi's best albums, and I think the reason why I love it so much, is because most of the songs were kinda dance-ish/EDM, and I love that type of music, so it totally works for me! I also think the album booklet pictures are so awesome, too. Arashi all look incredible!

I've just watched Arashi's performances from today's MSSL & omg, I've enjoyed them so incredibly much!!!

They couldn't have chosen more perfect songs to perform, than "GUTS !", "Meikyuu Love Song" & "Daremo Shiranai". Those are just some of my favorites from the boys! I've loved how during "GUTS !", all those balloons were just everywhere on stage! So cute, lol! The whole performance was just so cute, actually. And tons of fun to watch! "Meikyuu Love Song" was lovely to watch & "Daremo Shiranai" was just plain amazing to watch. seriously. Arashi totally rocked that performance! And Ohno's facial expression at the end of the performance was so hilarious yet very cute, all at the exact same time! Arashi were looking better than ever during these performances, as well. They all looked so good in those outfits!

Sakura is a boring uninspiring song title but hopefully the song sounds better than the title itself

And please ARASHI , no more Bittersweet ish sounding song again

Yay! I am so totally excited for a new single! Even I'm a bit surprised to see Arashi providing a theme song, to a drama which doesn't star an Arashi member. But Matsujun & Oguri Shun are already like, best friends, so I guess it's close enough!

"Sakura" is such a lovely title & if that's the song, that's playing in the background of the Ouroboros CM (sounds like arashi's voices to me! ), then it's sounding pretty nice, so far! Hopefully we get like a radio rip of it or something, real soon! And I already can't wait to see the covers & watch the PV. Is it February 25th, yet?! I am so excited!

The description had me at "an intense and edgy dance song". That's pretty much all I needed to know! Hahaha. Totally can't wait to hear "Sakura", now!

A little longer preview of "Sakura", which is most likely from today's first episode of Ouroboros:


I am totally loving how "Sakura" is sounding! It totally does sound "intense" & "dark", which is probably why I'm loving it so much. Now I really can't wait to hear the full song, after listening to this longer preview! I just know the entire song is going to be so amazing. Can't wait!

Ahhh! I just love "Sakura" so, so much. This is totally what I would call, the best way to kick off 2015, which is...with one amazing a-side, like "Sakura". I can't wait for the covers & PV!

What a lovely tracklist! The b-side title, "Rise and Shine" is so cute. Looking forward to listening to it & the other b-sides, as well.

Sakura covers

CD



CD + DVD

I'm not so keen on the choice of colour used for the font & everything feels so random

Oh well could have been worst , at least there's no pink involved LOL

Such simple & sophisticated covers! I absolutely love them. so much! I think because of the black/white theme of the covers, it just makes Arashi all look ten times hotter! If I had to choose just one favorite, it would be the CD only, but I love both covers so much & already can't wait to see what the PV will look like!

...I absolutely cannot get over how breathtakingly amazing, the "Sakura" PV is looking like, so far. Arashi are all looking incredibly gorgeous! Meaning...they are all looking so equally handsome, that I don't even think I could handle it. But anyway! I absolutely love the setting/theme of the PV. I like the whole dark atmosphere that is shown & I think that, that one scene where the sakura blossom tree is lit up in pink, is so beautiful. Now I am truly impatiently waiting to watch the full PV!

Full Sakura PV is also uploaded via JPopSuki TV now

http://www.jpopsuki.tv/video/Arashi-...e8fb8ed84a88d0

Song wise , the full version is beyond awesome but PV wise it's quite boring but I understand that the background is the main focal point

Then again it wouldn't hurt for the guys to dance instead of just standing around looking stiff . Still it's not their worst PV , that goes to Dear Snow by a long shot
