[ARASHI] The 34th thread ~ 49th single I seek / Daylight (18.05)

[KarenPang]

Happy birthday Aiba who turns 33

And last week's VS ARASHI was the last episode of 2015 which Aiba obviously was upset as in the beginning of the show , the cameras kept on zooming onto him and Sakurai asked what's wrong LOL

Ohno always kept on saying 'thank you for forever always giving birth' to every single ARASHI member's mums during their respective birthdays , likewise for himself last month

At least Ohno did Aiba's 1 week in advance LOL

Beginning of MSSL medley

Their MSSL outfits





Aiba's outfit is very Aiba , LOL

And it was a really nice medley . The beginning of the medley showed all 5 of their hands forming an improvised Christmas tree which was so cool

Still like Ai wo Sakebe a lot , Love so sweet brought back tons of Hanadan related memories while Sakura was so cool with the dance moves incorporated

Such a pity since Sakura is good but the PV itself was quite boring . They should have danced in it , just like One Love & Face Down :x

I watched the Johnnys Countdown online

ARASHI covered NEWS's NEWS Nippon earlier on which was awesome & NEWS returned the favour by covering Monster

Also , in the Top 5 duets you wish to see that viewers voted , viewers voted Ohno & Shounentei's Higashiyama-san where both of them covered/sang Shounentei's Nihon Yoitoko Maka Fushigi together

Higashiyama-san isn't young anymore & for him to be able to do backflips earlier on was crazy

And A.B.C.Z's Kawai & MatsuJun teamed up together to do WISH wow old Shounen Club memories came flooding back <3

Anyway Kouhaku video streamings are already up

Yaaay! For the first official drama-related news, for an Arashi member for 2016, so far. I think the last drama of Ohno's I watched was "Kaibutsu-kun", so I hopefully look forward to watching this new drama, as well. Now...if only that MatsuJun spring drama would get confirmed, then my spring's already complete!
