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

[Beauty4123]

Ahh...amazing first week sales! "Ai wo Sakebe" is still stuck inside my head, even 'til this day, so I'm very glad it's been selling extremely well.

And I'm also just now noticing that Arashi have 36 consecutive #1 singles...all I can say is "go go go!".

[KarenPang]

Ai wo Sakebe 1st week sales - 462,550

Yume ni Kakeru in music box mode



It's sad that Yume ni Kakeru is a B-side because frankly it should have been released as an A-side together with Ai wo Sakebe , oh well :x

Sorry but the covers are hands down really ugly if not an eye sore

Here's hoping the new songs in the album will sound good

[Beauty4123]

Even if they're pretty simple covers, I still love them! Although I would totally love them more if they were bigger...hopefully soon some bigger & HQ versions come out! But for now, I'm going with the CD+DVD LE as my most favorite. I just love how Matsujun's also the center of attention in all 3 covers...

Anyway, onto the tracklist...I totally love! And yes, I do "love" you, Matsujun. That's one solo I can't wait to hear! I'm not exactly sure what the Japanese song titles translate to, so for now, I can't say if I like them or not, but I'm really loving the solo track titles...oh how "Mr. FUNK" is totally fitting for Aiba. Out of those bonus tracks, "make a wish" is totally my favorite title.

Still looking forward to hearing everything & hopefully we'll get the PV for one of those album tracks real soon!

Japonism bigger covers

2 CDs regular edition



2 CDs limited edition



CD + DVD limited edition



Yup they're still really ugly & if ARASHI wants to showcase all the good things about Japan , there's nothing that symbolises it , covers wise

Likewise for their outfits . They should be wearing something like male Yukata if they want to convey the message of Japan

Instead they're wearing things like they came from a garage sale

It's all so wrong in every single level , like really

[AyuGAME]

the worst is Ohno..second...Aiba...Nino is third..it's ok...Sho looks nice...

I find that what Jun wearing is very interesting...I would love to wear it...

[KarenPang]

To me if you want your album to represent what Japan is all about , they should have gone for an Oriental concept

BREAKERZ's Tsukiyo no Itazura no Mahou is the perfect example with them nailing the Japanese aspect well (from their outfits to the song & also the PV)

Whoever styled ARASHI for Japonism should get fired

[Beauty4123]

hmm...after seeing the covers in bigger sizes, I think I'll go with the 2CDs RE as my most favorite cover. I actually didn't even fully notice their outfits until these bigger covers & now that you mention it...they sure are "interesting". Well, it's only Aiba & Ohno whose outfits I'm not so sure of, but...Sho, Nino & (of course!) Matsujun have the best outfits!

FRIDAY reports Arashi's Ohno Satoshi is in a relationship with a 24-year-old former actress

On the latest issue of 'FRIDAY', it was reported that Arashi member Ohno Satoshi is in a relationship.

The tabloid magazine caught Ohno coming out from a hot stone spa in Tokyo on Friday night in early September, and he was with a beautiful lady who stands about 170 cm.

After enjoyed the spa for an hour and a half, the two got in a taxi, and went directly back to Ohno's apartment building apparently.

According to the magazine, the lady is a 24-year-old former actress, whom FRIDAY is referring to as 'A', who has appeared in Fuji TV drama "Life" and movie "Real Onigokko 5."

It's said that Ohno and 'A' met at a bar in Nishi-Azabu where 'A' was working part-time, and they have been in a relationship since a year ago.

"I hear that they started living together right after they began dating. 'A' is currently inactive as an actress, and doing housework to support Ohno's busy schedule," an acquaintance told the magazine.

Couple of days after the spa date, FRIDAY once again caught the two visiting a fancy Yakiniku restaurant in Shirokane as well.

FRIDAY's latest issue contains two-shot photos of Ohno and 'A', as well as their conversation with Ohno regarding this.

Finally nobody can call Ohno a weirdo anymore for not being involved in a relationship lol

Arashi's Ohno Satoshi Denies Relationship With Former Actress, Vows Never To See Her Again

Arashi's Ohno Satoshi has denied that he is in a relationship with a 24-year-old former actress.

On September 19, Arashi held its first live concert performance for its "ARASHI BLAST in Miyagi" event. Before the show began, Ohno came on stage to address allegations that he was dating and living with a former actress.

Ohno directly responded to reports of being in a relationship and living with the actress. He state that the two were just friend, and that the situation was just a misunderstanding.

"After reflecting upon the fact that our actions led to this misunderstanding, I have decided that we will no longer be meeting each other. I'm very sorry for the trouble I've caused," he said. The idol repeated that they would "absolutely not meet each other anymore".

Ohno once again apologised to the crowd for his involvement in the scandal. "I regret my thoughtless actions and will reflect upon my actions," he said.

Tabloid magazine FRIDAY released an exclusive report in its latest issue alleging that Satoshi Ohno had been dating a 24-year-old former actress. A reporter for the magazine caught the two on multiple dates together, and a close acquaintance stated that they were living together.

Netizen response to reports of Ohno being in a relationship were mixed. While some congratulated the idol and wished him well, others were outraged over the nature of their relationship, including the 10 year age difference.

Although Johnny's Entertainment discourages its idols from publicly dating, Johnny Kitagawa, the company's founder and president, recently stated that when his artists get older, they should become involved in romantic relationships.

"Once you reach the marrying age, you are free to get married. Having a wife and children becomes necessary. This is the natural course of life. It would be pitiable if you don't," he stated.

Ninomiya Kazunari and Kiritani Mirei Join "Assassination Classroom" Sequel

The popular manga “Assassination Classroom”, which topped 17 million copies in circulation in a remarkable span of 3 years was made into an anime and live action film. The first movie was released in March this year and exceeded 2.7 billion yen at the box office and ranked number 1 among Japanese films in the first half of 2015. The sequel will be titled “Assassination Classroom~ Graduation Edition”.

At the arrival of the new semester, Class 3-E students are still aiming to kill their teacher who moves around in a speed of Mach 20. Students feel conflicted as the limited time approaches. The mystery of Koro-sensei’s identity, as well as the fate of the Earth, will be revealed.

To be released in Spring 2016, Hey! Say! JUMP’s Yamada Ryosuke will be back as the hero Nagisa Shiota. The cast from the previous movie will also be returning. In addition, Arashi’s Ninomiya Kazunari, who voices Koro-sensei, will be playing the “God of Death”, the world’s best assassin. Kiritani Mirei will play Yukimura Aguri, Class 3-E’s former homeroom teacher.

Visuals for the movie have been released through flyers distributed at the theaters last September 19. It shows Koro-sensei amidst cherry blossoms in full bloom looking up to the sky along with the wording “Please don’t forget about your Sensei,” which conveys a sense of the heartache of parting in store for Graduation Edition.

The series’ creator Matsui Yusei will be supervising the sequel.
