[ARASHI] Get Lost in the Spiral - 26th thread of Arashi.

[KarenPang]

ah looks like me & Lisa MIGHT be getting our Taiwan press copies for 僕の見ている風景 the album much earlier than expected

I saw this on avex's Taiwan earlier on

收錄於08/20 預定發行專輯「嵐 / 我眼中的風景」中

5musicTaiwan listed the album will be out on 27th Aug in Taiwan but I think in due time , this will be changed in line of what I saw on avex Taiwan

yay I hope it's true

[Beauty4123]

i hope that's true, too! but honestly, i don't mind waiting, since it's Arashi, haha. but it'll be nice if that's true!

[KarenPang]

I think it's true since I took that info from avex taiwan itself

I also see 20th Aug listed on HMV HK too

well I have to wait for 5musicTaiwan to update their website on this x)

later today the NINKI index will be out

[Beauty4123]

i'm so excited to see the NINKI. lol. since arashi has passed over 500 points for their singles, i wonder if they can get to 600 with this album's NINKI. i think i'm expecting too much, haha.

[KarenPang]

LOL

wow 600 will be a record , NINKI index wise xD but we'll see

somemore the album will only be released in 1 edition

but if To be free's able to get something like what 420K in the 1st week for sales , then why not ?

[Beauty4123]

well, as always...let's just expect the unexpected with arashi!

[KarenPang]

yup yup

"100 most influential Japanese people" as chosen on the internet

Around mid-June, eight prominent Japanese sites conducted the same online poll and gathered all the votes received together - a total of around 265,000 votes - into one comprehensive ranking. The question asked was which Japanese person they considered most influential, and here are the top ten along with Arashi's rankings

I did not post the full list as I don't know for some xD

01. Kitano Takeshi (filmmaker)
02. Ichiro (baseball player)
02. Naoto Kan (Prime Minister)
04. Ozawa Ichiro (House of Representatives member)
05. Koizumi Junichiro (former Prime Minister)
06. Shimada Shinsuke (Talent)
07. Hatoyama Yukio (former Prime Minister)
08. Renho (Minister for Administrative Reforms)
09. Higashikokubaru Hideo (governor of Miyazaki)
10. Honda Keisuke (soccer player)
24. Arashi (idol group)
38. Sakurai Sho (talent)
42. Matsumoto Jun (talent)
48. Ohno Satoshi (talent)
49. Ninomiya Kazunari (talent)
51. Aiba Masaki (talent)

For those interested, the only other Johnny's-related people to appear on the ranking were Kimura Takuya (at #17) and SMAP (at #89).

Sites involved in the poll: Ameba, Infoseek Rakuten, getnews.jp, Niconico Douga, Hatena, @peps! Chips, Mobage Town, MSN Sankei news

[Beauty4123]

cool! i'm just happy to see they've made it on this list, not so much the rankings

[KarenPang]

I think what's something about this list's that all 5 members & the whole group were cited/listed out

something which I didn't see for other Johnny's groups

you can imagine how much influence they have , be it in solo or group mode :O

but my brother in law's higher than MatsuJun so that's good xD

[Beauty4123]

boku no miteiru fuukei CM:


i seriously love the background. it'd be a great setting for a PV.

[KarenPang]

yeah the background is awesome

kinda wish the CM was longer instead of just 16 seconds ._.

[dreamland2.0]

Eek awesome!! can't wait!

[KarenPang]

NINKI index time

ALBUMS
01 502.20 嵐 - 僕の見ている風景
02 77.30 RIP SLYME - GOOD TIMES
03 57.10 湘南乃風 - 湘南乃風 ~湘南爆音BREAKS!~ mixed by The BK Sound
04 43.10 奥田民生 - OTRL
05 38.10 GARNET CROW - All Lovers
06 36.10 The Offspring - HAPPY HOUR!
07 32.20 THE PREDATORS - THIS WORLD
08 28.90 DAISHI DANCE x →Pia-no-jaC← PIANO project
09 28.60 元ちとせ - Orient
10 25.60 Ken - The Party

No surprises at the really high no. there

I don't know if it's possible on whether 僕の見ている風景 can outsell Dream"A"live if not their 1st album but it seems possible x)

Now's to wait for the album to leak out <3

[Nackar_91]

That's pretty high!

Does anyone remember the Ninkis for Dream "A"Live and All the Best!?

[KarenPang]

I'm not very sure but I'm quite certain Dream"A"live's NINKI no. was lower than 500K+ xD

Anyway I don't think you should bring ALL THE BEST ! in the picture since it's a best album

Comparing 僕の見ている風景 against Dream"A"Live is more logical since ALL THE BEST ! already sold close to 1.7 million & counting

Hey! It has been a long time since I went into the forum.

So, you already got the album? I don't think I will buy it cause I'm in a difficult position. I have no more place to put my CDs/DVDs and my mom told me to sell some of it if I want to buy new CDs/DVDs. Arghhh.

OMG woman you're finally on here lmao

ah no I don't have the Taiwan press of 僕の見ている風景 yet , it will not be out til 20th Aug but I already preordered a copy of it for myself & also for Lisa online

inclusive of registered airmail cost , it will set me for a mere S$24/25+ or so

I cannot imagine how much HMV Somerset/Citylink will charge the Japan press when it's out next week

Haha. Yeah, like finally I'm here.

Obviously, they will charge like so freaking high. That's why I prefer to order online and preferably not Japan press. It's sucking me dry. My mom has already limited my spendings on the card ):

Anyways, I think I shall be a very emo girl for the next few days. Who knows, maybe my mom will buy for me the album like she did for the Monster single.

[KarenPang]

well I hope so lor & yeah you did told me about your mum getting the Monster single for you as a surprise

the website that I preordered the Taiwan press of 僕の見ている風景 from , they still have slots for the 1st press but I think they will be gone soon & somemore they raised the price from NT388 to NT418 when I checked online yesterday

but if you need my help to preorder it , you know what to do ar 8D

[deelah]

^ Ohhh. If I want to preorder, I will definitely let you know. Thanks, girl!
