I’m just crying.

Seeing this just made my eyes watery. I can’t explain, normally I get in mood for a journal with a little music for you know let my feelings run across the keyword. But this time I was completely silent at first.

I will explain in plain language some key points:

just imgine )

About Idols:

Forget for Arashi reunion, for the day they changed Johnny's name, the contract died so they have to sign again. So the closest to the Arashi reunion is this kind of photo.

The incredible remarks like Kinki Kids most number 1, would be forgotten because they released all their work under “Johnny’s entertainment” label.

The days of “entering” would be from zero.

The name of several groups would change as the same of many songs related to johnny.

You can't name how you enter in the industry: Kyomoto, Matsumoto for example. Now is the time to tell lies, to invent t pretend things that idols and fans know that never happened.

Every Idol has to delete from his memory the name of Johnny. Forever.

Now, they don’t have past,

And I don’t know if they have future...

Are you happy?

You already know I like to dig in the past and remember some stories. This time is Olympic, we have a year to Paris 2024. (July 25th to Aug 11th)
So thinking in that I would re- introduce Johnnys back to 2013 were the Tokyo bid elecction was made.
That year Arashi in "Arafes" announced the bid and lit up the calaudron in Tokyo Olimpic Stadium. The same year decided Japan would re-build the whole stadium. So Arashi was the last male group/band in play and the last show was actually AKB48.
If you want to know the tied arashi-olympics here you have the "olympics songs"

At the time, Johnny announced the creation of a special unit called "johnny 2020" or in japanese トニトニ. The idea of JK was scauting a new generation of 40 Jr. And the scouting begun in Osaka and Tokyo.

Later Johnny named Tacky in his place in front of  "Jr" division in 2018. So he changed the original project they would be the last groups debuted: King & Prince (5), Sixtones (6), Snowman (7), naniwa danshi (7), HiHi jets (5), Bishounen (6) and Travis Japan (7) ⇒ 40 people in 6 groups.

But with the pandemic and the Olympic suspension, the project also changed.
This time Julie with Tackey decided form  Twenty★Twenty for Smile up! Proyect to collect found for pandemic relief. This time will have all the groups in the agency and only the debuted ones.

Until then people sympathized with Tackey like "taking Johnny's to another level". Only a few fans critizised the decision about the jr groups without the opportunity to show up even more fans and magazines pointed out to Julie. So how was the real role of Takizawa?

love it!

I love the song plus the PV. I was waiting for some beachie PV since JAL okinawa CM from 2018. The only thing I don't  bear is the ossan clothes, ugh! c'mon they still young. The lyrics are good, sonnds good too and have a nice and smooth choreography. In a sense the last two digital singles looks like the intenents of US artist for coping the latin market in the 90'. Is quite paradojical that Johnny's tries to atract the overseas public now that they are facing an hiatus next year. Imagine the situation: you finds about a group in spotify sounds goood looks good but you don't have the opportunity to to see them live or get the membresy to their fan club because you live overseas... plus they gonna enter in hiatus in the following six months. quite illogical huh!.
Still, pretty good song.

Why do I dislike Nino's marriage?

First of all Nino isn't my ichiban, not even my niban so there's nothing like platonic love towards him.

Second, I wish him all happiness as any arashi member. I really want them to find happiness in marriage.

I strongly support Ayako Ito. There's my motive.

She was bashed online harshly by fans and media and Nino did nothing to protect her.

In his Ninosan, he mocked about womens who have the same attitude as Ito in sns and variety shows. The special was titled "woman who dislikes another woman".

When he was questioned directly by the magazine he answered like a kid, telling them to ask the agency instead of defending his relationship with Ito.

The same when he was invited to Tetsuko's room and when he was questioned he replied with the pre formatted answer "my fans are my girlfriend" instead of defending his relationship.

After all of this I think he had many opportunities to stand up against his harsh fans and defend his girlfriend-wife to be.

If I were Ito I never would have married such a man. She had to quit her job and her career and Nino didn't do anything to protect her instead he tried to keep lying about it. Now that she is a general woman he married her.

The history of emperor greetings songs

Heisei 10th anniversary: Yoshiki (1999)

Heisei 20th anniversary: Exile tribe (2009)

Heisei 30th anniversary: Miura Daichi  (2019)

Reiwa first enthronement greetings: Arashi

Is huge! I'm so proud of them.

Maybe I'm a bit melancholic these days, I started thinking about all the things and big projects they have now. Now they are about to start the hiatus.

Is a real paradox that everyone the company, sponsors, TV in general are realising how big and how good arashi is now after the announcement.

I thought they deserved this so much time before, like in 2009, but is good recompense after 20 years of work.

Is better thinking is a big way to say じゃね!

I love it, even if someone doesn ́t understand a word in japanese it can be moving as well.

Composer: Yoko Kanno

Is really nice to know which are the “Arashi best”

I was influenced by Kinki “the best” album and “25 years” of SMAP. I wanted to know what about Arashi songs and their upcoming 20th anniversary.

How I did the count of the tour? It wasn’t easy at all. First of all  I only took the DVD released ones, because it's easy to have reliable source of the setlist. And the second point is I didn’t took the “special concerts”


  • AAA


  • 5x10


  • ARAFES 2012


  • ARAFES 2013


  • BLAST IN MIYAGI


  • BLAST IN HAWAII


  • JAPONISM IN ARENA


These concerts are specials, and I try to count the songs of annual tours specially the encore part.

If you want a precise account of every song Arashi released and the live performance check the wonderful spreadsheet of [livejournal.com profile] projectpaprika.

The second part I based on my own previous post of “arashi in music programs” and “sales post”.

Johnny’s Countdown is the new year concert, but since 1997 is aired on Fuji Tv and other regionals stations. There’s a JC part isn't’ aired before 11PM and some CM time too, for this particular chart I only care about the aired content.

Arashi have almost 400 songs, wow!. Like all the fans I have a couple of favourites, not all 400 songs. They are just 10 songs really special for me … between them one never been performed live. 😢

For me is interesting know the sales isn’t related to the songs they chose for TV or concerts. Also, as far as I know (because I can’t find a reliable data about that *help me*) the songs more performed aren’t related with fans’ choice (like they did in arafes).


So, which are the songs more performed in TV? *drums*

I’m sorry but I can’t do fancy graphics about it, If someone wants to It will be really helpful. Of course statistics aren't exact, but can give us some references.

See, sometimes things are a little different of what we expected.

I know there are songs more promoted by the Agency than others. But, I like to think there are songs specials for them too. As an Aiba fan I can figure out what are those, I would like all of them would be more open about music taste.

EDIT: This post was in drafts since november, but It's takes so long to find the right data and some beautiful images. Now based on the Arashi Hiatus I will posted just like it was in drafts without the nice and beautiful images. Sorry..

I found about this just on lunch, but I was on my Aunt home so I can't say nothing about this before.

I'm not shocked because they have already prepared the fans in different ways first of all in Arashi NHK documentary. I'm a bit sad because of course I'm a fan. They are people who have emotions and life sometimes expectations have their own weight on us.

I was less cautious in my beginning as fan, so when I saw Ochan crying in Hawaii I thought maybe he needs a bit of rest and maybe the end of Arashi is near. And many other fans in very bad manners told me this will be impossible and I was telling lies. But when Ohno ended his radio show of 12 years, I was more cautious this time and only pointed it.

For Ohno fans I think is devastating. He have my favourite voice in Arashi and one of my favourites in JE. His dance is wonderful and is crown as the kings of dance of the whole JE.

I think they have to do the things they want, is their lives after all.

I don't know why the management thought this would be a better occasion since the applications didn't finished. For me is too early is we are talking on the beginning of the hiatus. In the other hand after heard the time he wanted to quit and all the time they have to hide this decision made me think maybe they have to announce it early and let Ohno begin with his rest time soon. And sometimes I think maybe the agency makes some marketing about this.

I don't want to mix translations with my hopes. just saying some points...

🐟They would be on hiatus on 31 december 2020 just 703 days or a year and 11 months.

🐟 From that dates onwards they won't have groups activities. i.e. ANS, VSA, music station, kohaku or other single or album as Arashi.

🐟 Ohno would live his life as a general person from the 31-12-20. So, he won't do any entertainment activity. I.e. guest appearance in any show.

🐟 Aiba said he would try his best in his solo activities, maybe the others members try to pursue solo activities too. (is highly unlikely they would do any appearance of other member show like jun was guest in yakai.)

🐟 Jun also said he want to rest a little bit and challenge himself with things he never try. He maybe have some projects to do but seems he would slow down.  The other two didn't make any reference to the time in hiatus.

🐟 The end of hiatus isn't decided yet.

🐟 The decision to quit start growing around Blast in Hawaii

🐟 Ohno wanted to quit in june 2017. In february 2018 the group communicated the agency he would quit and Arashi future as group. The agency have many meetings and offered Ohno an hiatus. They agreed on the hiatus and made the proper arrangements with the agency in june 2018.

🐟 Although is a discrepancy between Nino or Aiba way to tell the story I would credit Ohno. He start talking one on one with Arashi members in june 2017 and heard their thoughts for his decisions.  Then, gathered all in the hotel room in Osaka (for the wakuwaku) and told them the conclusions of all the individuals meetings on 16th June just minutes before Nino’s birthday.

🐟 They NEVER say they won’t disband after the hiatus. They said they have to have time to think.

🐟 Ohno NEVER say he will back for sure. He will find his true self and then start thinking in the future as idol and Arashi member.

🐟 They begin with the hiatus because they don’t want to perform as 4 person arashi.

Of course I will continue to support them as I supported many other bands inclusive the other disbanded as SMAP. I want Ohno to think the best for him. I want to him to take care of his life, his family, his body and even his soul.
Later I will continue to comment on this situation of all the things that I am remembering but before. First of all I will post all the things that I had in the drafts even if they are incomplete ... surely I will complete them later.

Warning: This post will talk about grown up topics. I will talk about business and Arashi as business. If you want to believe and live in Arashi' fairytale world go ahead, but don’t try to say to me this is because I’m an Anti. I will talk some facts and some numbers and economics, all those information is under the cut.

Read this post is under your entire responsibility. Commentaries are highly appreciated even if you don’t agree with me.


I have seen some inquiries of fans in TW and and here about the sales of Arashi. They wanted to know If Arashi have a drop in their popularity or a significant change in the sales.




First of all, Japan have the 2nd biggest discographic industry in the world. Aside of that, Idols are 30% of the discography and Johnny's is only the half.




I began to learn about this industry by Arashi. I will try to explain the little things I know about the business.

last post or my last interaction here. Sorry. Health issues and RL are driving me crazy. I wasn’t in the fandom for two month not even for post the “HIATUS” phrase.

Is quite unbelievable I don’t follow JE for that short and everything changes.

The retirement of Tackey surprised me a lot. I’m happy he accedes to a management position in the JE. He was a great johnny and the most wonderful Jr of all times. He was the one who all jr respected back then.

In the other hand I’m sad about Tsubasa. He is too the image of the golden era. He was bright back then. Like him sometimes, my own health put limits on my career.  I believe he could have some management desk in JE too, but maybe the full retirement was his decision.

We are close to the 20th anniversary of Arashi and maybe this make the news more painful. In this year retired from Johnny's 3 of most powerful JR of all times: Subaru, Tackey and Tsubasa. Since 1995 the jr. were divided into “Kansai johnnys jr” and “johnnys jr” (for all those who doesn’t belong to kansai). From this sub units remain in the agency: Arashi, KAT-TUN 3, Yamapi, Ikuta Toma, Kazama Shunsuke and Yara Tomoyuki. From Kansai side the part of the Yu Yokoyama Yu, Murakami Shingo, Maruyama Ryuhei, Nishikido Ryo. The other K8 members joined the agency after 1999. There were other Jr in that time, they were the Jr more young of the agency they have 10 years or less: ふぉ〜ゆ〜, ABC and Fujiyawa Taisuke.

Less than 10 johnnys remain in the agency after 200 jr pool at 1999. The most awesome and bright era of Johnny’s begun with NHK “Idol on Stage” where Arashi begun their path.

I know everyone has the right to leave the agency for pursue their own career, but I’m sad about the treatment they had in the agency. Sometimes the three of them didn’t receive the correct publicity in the media or the right work offers. How did they turn the most successful Jr into talents in the bottom of the agency?. T&T didn’t have not even the half of the work of TOKiO.

I found awful the common japanese philosophy of the end of the career at 40. Normally Idols has an “expiration date” at the age at 30, SMAP was the first idol whom surpass the 30 years mark in the top of the success.

And I have the worst proof of that way of thinking: Aiba. Yes, my own ichiban says so. He thinks he can’t reach anything else since the day he reached 30 years old (zero G making). I’m 10 years younger than him but I still love him like he is right now. I don’t want to believe him, Arashi has much more to do in entertainment industry. I hope he changed his mind by now.

Most of the newspapers in japan says the end of Heisei era is the end of the idol era too. They compared the popularity of Idols like the end of the bubble at the 10th of Heisei.

I’m sad… truly. Even if they aren't my group is still sad, they are from the same generation as Arashi and shared with them most of the precious moments during their teenage.

I want them to enjoy their new life now, they deserve it.

Primero de todo debo decir que no tuve un  muy buen final de año... mi pc... mi amada pc; ella dejó el fandom! La tuve que reparar y todavia no tengo acceso a todo mi material de Johnnys. Igualmente pude seguirlos y ver todos los compromisos que tenian para fin de año. Bueno, mas tarde haré otro post con todo lo que paso en fin de año y con un poco de screencaps o algunos gif.
En medio del calor agobiante del verano, estuve viendo el Tokio Kakeru de MatsuJun y me habia dado la idea de poder ver a todos los Johnnys que pudieron pasar por el programa.
Me di cuenta que Tokio cambio un poco la vision de la relación Senpai-Kuhai dentro de Johnnys. Segun el Dai-Senpai la relacion se establece por la entrada en la jimusho y no por la edad o la fecha de debut (ya habia hecho un post con los dias de debut de los Johnnys, o sea que ahora cambiaron las reglas). Y así nacio la idea del post que después quedo en drafts.

Arashi habia dicho algo de esto cuando le dijo Senpai a Tackey y Aiba llamó senpai a Yamapi. Pero parece que ahora es oficial.
Entonces directo a nuestro asunto, debajo del cut esta reproducido la linea de tiempo que tiene Tokio  en su programa. Obvio. no tiene las fotos ni los grupos por dos razones: no me entraba y no tengo tantas habilidades de diseño.

*Since Tokio don´t put the members of ABCZ and Johnny's west I don't have a clue when they join (If someone in the fandom know, help is always welcome). Sorry, but I have to introduce SMAP here, I mean if weren't SMAP probably weren't all the sussex of johnny's groups.

Thanks [livejournal.com profile] sacchanxd for the subs for KinPuri, I got the names and the dates there. The members are separated into two groups of King (Hirano Sho, Nagase Ren, Takahashi Kaito) and Prince (Kishi Yuta, Jinguji Yuta, Iwahashi Genki). There are a new community of these Jr. now a fully Johnny's in LJ with that nickname, if someone of the olders groups fandom wants to follow them.
** Tokio no puso los nombres y fechas de ABCZ Y JOHNNYS WEST, así que no tengo la menor idea de cuales son (si alguien sabe, la ayuda siempre es bienvenida). Entre otras cosaas tuve que poner el debut de SMAP porque a decir verdad sin ellos quizas la jimusho no tendría tanto exito.

I was having this post for so long in the “to do list”,  since all my favs were in Kakeru. As I say before, my pc was broken and now I don’t have my Johnny’s material in my hands. Only have this draft online. Next post will be for the end of the year of arashi activities.
I’m will reproduce the Tokio kakeru board, well I´ll try to reproduce the tokio kakeru board (Staff-san do it with the faces and all fancy stuff, but I don't have the art skills they have). I finished the chart in midnight (because it's summer and 35°C in the afternoon isn't healthy for a fangirl) so, forgive me for the mistakes on the kanji names.
For those who didn’t know Tokio has been doing a timeline with the day when they join and the debut dates of all johnnys. The emphasys is given in the "join dates" of the talents in the agency. Tokio considers senpai to everyone who join first in Johnnys and then all are Kuhais. Following that principle Ohno is Senpai of Okada and Yamapi of Aiba. Rules are changing in the Jimusho.

* For all who read this post, I like doing index and I like know about Johnny's History, because I don't like feel like an outsider when Senpai talks to Arashi about some of JE stuff.

¡sí! un poco tarde ... pero vale la pena
Hoy me enteré sobre las Tokio songs ...
La expectativa es enorme sobre los juegos olímpicos de Tokio. En este 2018, todos conocemos a los cantantes de k-pop en la apertura de los Juegos Olímpicos.
Hasta ahora, Johnnys no parece aparecer en la apertura, tal vez en el final de los juegos olímpicos donde el rating disminuyen. Incluso la presentación en los Juegos Olímpicos de Río nada introduce al mundo de los idols. Es la primera vez que presenta canciones idol junto con canciones que no son idol para los Juegos Olímpicos.
Es una gran sorpresa este especial programa. Para mí es algo triste ... Arashi no se muestra en esto. Tienen el programa especial que presenta a los atletas en 2016. Pero este programa es solo para música y, por lo que yo sé, el programa no se transmitió por todo el mundo.
Pero, no sé si quiero que interpreten mikan en la televisión internacional, pero tienen una enorme trayectoria y maravillosas canciones para presentar.
Siento que los japoneses no quieren mostrarle Arashi a el mundo, no sé por qué. Algunos blogs piensan que es vergonzoso, otros dicen que incluso tienen maravillosas canciones que no se ajustan a la imagen de representar a Japón.
Para murakami, ¡Felicitaciones! Creo que es el primer programa de Kanjani transmitido en televisión internacional.
murakami.jpg
Para aquellos que quieran pasarse por la pagina: https://www.nhk.or.jp/songsoftokyo/

El programa va tener lugar el 1 °y 2° de enero por nhk world que esta en ingles. Depende de la prestadora de cable estará disponible en algunos paises (direct tv lo tiene ppv). Los johnnys que se presentan son Kanjani y News por ahora no hay otro que tenga presentacion. Tal como lo anuncia la pagina se graba en el 25 de noviembre y será transmitido primero para nhk world en ingles y luego en Japón en el 8 de Enero.

Sobre Nino: AHHH creo que se lo merece. Su capacidad como mc lo demuestra en todos los programas de arashi y en cada uno de sus preoyectos en solitario. Es impresionante, el Kohaku fue bastante bueno con Aiba a cargo y con alguien como Nino al frente creo que puede levantar un poco más la audiencia.
Me hubiera gustado mas una conductora del rojo como Namie Amuro, alguien que represente la musica japonesa desde el punto de vista femenino. Pero bueno, quizas sea una cuestion de agencias.
Estoy feliz por él. Ahora queda seguirlo en todas las actividades de promoción que quedan.
Definitivamente voy a tratar de mirarlo  en vivo.

yes! a little late ... but it's worth it
Today I found out about the songs from Tokyo ...
The expectation is huge about the Olympic Games in Tokyo. In this 2018, we all know about the k-pop singers at the opening of the Olympic Games.
So far, Johnnys does not seem to appear at the opening, perhaps at the end of the Olympic Games where the rating decreases. Even the presentation at the Olympic Games in Rio nothing introduces us to the world of idols. It is the first time that it presents idol songs along with songs that are not idol for the Olympic Games.
It is a great surprise this special prgoram. For me it's a sad thing ... Arashi does not show up in this. They have the special program that presents the athletes in 2016. But this program is only for music and, as far as I know, the program was not broadcast all over the world.
But, I do not know if I want them to perform mikan on international television, but they have an enormous trajectory and wonderful songs to preform.
I feel that the Japanese do not want to show Arashi to the world, I do not know why. Some blogs think it's embarrassing, others say they even have wonderful songs that do not fit the image of representing Japan.
For murakami, congratulations! I think it's the first Kanjani program aired on international television.
For those who want to go through the page: https://www.nhk.or.jp/songsoftokyo/

About Nino: AHHH I think he totally deserves it. his capacity as mc shows in all the programs of arashi and in each of his solo projects. Is awesome.
I would have liked more a red moderator like Namie Amuro. But maybe it's a matter of agencies.
Im truly happy for him.
I will definitely try to watch Kohaku live.

CM para el nuevo cd



Bueno, quiero decirlo en algun lugar... que estaba pensando el managment de Johnny cuando hizo este cm?.
Ya sé seguro es que quisieron innovar, pero la pregunta es a que costo.
Durante años la promoción del nuevo cd fueron los singles que venian incluidos y/o la canción de promoción.
El año pasado el cm era un poco desconecatado con el tema de los treboles y Are you happy que no se parecía a la cancion de corte ni al tema o título del álbum.
Pero.... no estaban tan mal.
En todo caso lo que me molestó es que en todo el cm no se muestra Arashi, no solo lo presentan como un lienzo en blanco (cosa que nunca podrian ser por tener casi 20 años de historia) sino que también la intervención de una persona occidental!.
Yo soy occidental de pura cepa: pero que lo tantos queden claros, vendo musica japonesa en japon, de un grupo cuyo nombre está en japonés y que nunca hizo una gira por un país occidental con ¿¿??? ellos mismos noooo, con un occidental no relacionado con ellos. EHHH! WTF!
Este CM no me da ansias de comprarlo mas bien miedo. Tengo un poco de inseguridad acerca de las canciones y mucho mas del tour.
Por cierto, Mikan esta bien pero la parte Mozart esta un poquito demás! Me quedo como mi favorita hasta ahora "Power of the paradise".


english text )

Well, How I put this? What the hell are you thinking Julie?. Innovation doesn´t means give it all for nothing. For years the promotion of the new cd were the singles that were included and / or the promotional song.
The last year CM for the newest album features Arashi like a clover. The image doesn´t fit in the theme, the name or even the promotional song. But, wasn´t that bad.
This time not only the discconected image,they don´t show Arashi also have the intervention of an occidental person. They  present Arashi as a blank canvas (which could never be due to having almost 20 years of history)
I am a pure western person: but  selling Japanese music in Japan, a group whose name is in Japanese and never made a trip through a western country with ¿¿? themselves noooo, with a western men unrelated to them = WTF?
This CM does not give me anxiety to buy it rather fear. I have a bit of insecurity about the songs and much more of the tour.
By the way, Mikan is fine but the Mozart part is a little bit too much! My favorite of the years so far is "Power of the paradise".

En muchos sitios de Internet hay información pero lamentablemente esta desactualizada y esparcida en varios lugares. Traté de buscar en muchos sitios algunas de estas canciones.
[necesito decir que me gusta hacer indices?]  ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
En otros casos me enteré de canciones que son exelentes y que sobrepasan la mision de una cancion para comercial. Es decir, que en el caso de "Everything" solo se escuchan 10 segundos de la cancion entre medio de lo que se habla de la publicidad. Me parece que es una letra muy linda y con mucho significado como para una publicidad.
Otra  cosa que me enteré fue el comercial de Ai wo sakebe (todavia esta disponible en streeming).
No tengo ni encontre algunos de los comerciales en esta lista. Pero si puede ser util en el caso de que alguien quier buscarlos por nombre y año.



english text )

In many sites of Internet there is information but unfortunately it is outdated and spread in several places. I tried to find some of these songs in many places.
[I need to say I like to do indexes?]
In other cases I heard songs that are excellent and that surpass the mission of a song for commercial. That is, in the case of "Everything" only listen 10 seconds of the song in between what is spoken of advertising. It seems to me that it is a very beautiful letter and with much meaning as for an advertisement.
Another thing I found out was the Ai wo sakebe commercial (it's still available in streeming).
I have not even found any of the commercials on this list. But it can be useful in the case that someone wants to look for them by name and year.

Puedo publicar esto rápidamente porque ahora mismo se conoce oficialmente sobre los cambios en el vsa.
Aunque este SP fue grabado el 14 de junio, la producción cambia al invitado en BABA, BORRAN la parte de Tsuyoshi Domoto.
En el episodio pasado, cuando VSA tiene la vista previa del episodio lo veo y algo parece estar desaparecido ... Supongo que sólo mostraron algunas partes de la BABA sólo para fines promocionales. Luego, en la misma semana en el programa de televisión de Tokyo, Koichi anunció la enfermedad de Tsuyoshi.
Ahora, todas las piezas estan juntas.
Pero, ¿la enfermedad de Tsuyo es tan grave que tienen que borrar su participación en un espectáculo? ¿Es un problema diferente de la enfermedad? Arashi y Tsuyoshi están en buenos términos?
Para mí, Johnnys no tiene buenas modales y crean dudas y difunden rumores. Demasiado mal Johnny san, demasiado mal!
Espero que los Jimusho tengan una explicación apropiada a esto.

La promoción antes

I post this quickly because I right now known officially about the changes in the vsa.
Although this SP was recorded on 14 jun, the production changes the guest in BABA, they ERASE the part of Tsuyoshi Domoto.
In the past episode when VSA have the preview of the episode I watch it and something seems to be missing... I guessed they only showed some parts of the BABA only for promotional purposes. Then in the same week in the Tokyo TV show  Koichi annunced the illness of Tsuyoshi.
Now, all the pieces are together.
But, Is Tsuyo's disease so serious that they have to erase their participation in a show? It´s a different problem than illness? Arashi and Tsuyoshi are in good terms?
For me, Johnnys doesn´t have good maners and they create doubts and spread rumors. Too bad Johnny san, too bad!
I hope the Jimusho have a properly explanation to this.

Espaol + Pics )

Algunos de las tareas de arashi:
La semana pasada fue el anuncio del trabajo de las siguientes semanas. El miembro más activo, como de costumbre, Sakurai-San tiene casi una cita cada semana.
Mirá esto:
Los shows regulares:

  • VS嵐

  • 櫻井・有吉THE夜会 (Sakurai, Ariyoshi THE Yakai)

  • 天才!志村どうぶつ園 (Tensai! Shimura Dobutsuen)

  • 嵐にしやがれ (ARASHI ni Shiyagare)

  • ニノさん (Ninosan)

  • 相葉マナブ (Aiba Manabu)

  • 貴族探偵 (Kizoku Tantei) hasta el 26 de junio.

  • NEWS ZERO

  • グッと!スポーツ gutto sports

  • Y los dos programas de Nino y Aiba.


Tienen las presentaciones de: (algunas consideraciones personales también)

Waku waku school 17/6 y 18/6 Osaka. 8/7 y 9/7 Tokyo.
Me gustaria que pasaran este tipo de eventos en la TV. Otra vez con Sexy Zone, lo hace un poco aburrido (y que tal con otros grupos como Kis my Ft2). No es lo mío (quizas por eso de que no lo pasan en la tele, quizas sea todo el concepto. nose)

Tsunagu single lanzamiento en 28/6 (podría haber algun tipo de presentacion en music station o FNS, bueno eso espero)
Dije que me gusta ver a arashi un estilo tradicional japones?. Quizas no sea muy arriesgada la produccion de la portada, porque se parece a japonism y love. Espero si o si la presentacion en vivo por ahora, me gusta mas el track que la portada. Lo que da el veredicto final es la presentacion en vivo.

Music Day 7/1. Sakurai es el MC.
En el 5° aniversary del music day. Otra vez estan los chicos, espero una buena presentacion como de costumbre. Me pregunto por la Johnnys meddley porque dos grupos estan de cumpleaños, que lugar ocupa arashi en eso. (Por otro lado, Sho se ve fantastico en la publicidad).

24 hs television (Sakurai- Kame y Koyama). 26/8
El que diseña el logo este año es el mismo que hizo el logo para Tokyo 2020. Asi que nos perdemos la habilidad de Sho para dibujar (?).
Algo que me sorprendió es que usaron un concepto similar al Johnnys film festa del 2013 y lo dicen como si fuera una novedad. Que pasó Johnny san, se quedó sin ideas?


Va estar interesante, sobre todo la dupla Sho - Kame. Voy a tratar de verlo en vivo.

Los nuevos anuncios:

  • “忍びの国” (Shinobi no kuni).  premier el 1° de julio 2017. Ohno satoshi

  • “先に生まれただけの僕 (Saki ni Umareta dake no Boku)”. Empieza en Octubre con Sho Sakurai como Ryosuke Narumi. [dorama]

  • “ナラタージュ” (Narratage) Premier 7 de Octubre de 2017. Jun Matsumoto

  • “ラストレシピ ~麒麟の舌の記憶~(last recepie, kirin no shita no kioku) Premier 3 de Noviembre de 2017. Kazunari Ninomiya

  • 99.9―刑事専門弁護士― SEASON II (99.9 -Keiji Senmon Bengoshi- SEASON II). Empieza en Enero 2018 con Jun Matsumoto como Hiroto Miyama. [dorama]

  • “検察側の罪人”(Kensatsugawa no Zainin). Premier en el final de 2018. Kazunari Ninomiya [ni siquiera empezo la filmación]

english text (images are in spanish section) )
Some of schedule for arashi:
The past week was the announcement of the work of the following weeks.
The busiest member, as usual, Sakurai-San has almost an every week appointment.
Check this:
The regular shows:

  • VS嵐

  • 櫻井・有吉THE夜会 (Sakurai, Ariyoshi THE Yakai)

  • 天才!志村どうぶつ園 (Tensai! Shimura Dobutsuen)

  • 嵐にしやがれ (ARASHI ni Shiyagare)

  • ニノさん (Ninosan)

  • 相葉マナブ (Aiba Manabu)

  • 貴族探偵 (Kizoku Tantei) until  jun 26th.

  • NEWS ZERO

  • グッと!スポーツ gutto sports

  • And the two radio shows by Aiba and Nino.

They have some live presentation in the following months:
Waku waku school 17/6 - 18/6. 8/7 - 9-7 at Tokyo Dome.
I wish they aired on tv this kind of events. Again with Sexy zone, make it boring (what about Kis My ft2?). Really, isn't my thing.
Tsunagu relase on 28/6 (we can expect some music station or FNS presentation)
Did I said I like to see arashi a traditional Japanese style ?. Perhaps the production of the cover is not very risky, because it looks like japonism and love. I hope if or if the live performance for now, I like the track more than the cover. What gives the final verdict is the live presentation. Only the live presentation gives the final verdict.
Music Day 7/1. Sakurai is the MC.
In the 5th aniversary of music day. Again the boys, I expect a good presentation as usual. I wonder the place of arashi in the Johnny meddley because two groups have their anniversary. (On the other hand, Sho looks fantastic in advertising).
24 hs television with Sakurai as one of the main person. 26/8
The logo will be draw by the same artist of the Tokyo 2020 logo. So we'll miss the awesome drawing skills of Sho. Something has surprised me, they used similar concept in Johnnys film festa. What happened Johnny- san you ran out of ideas?. Will be interesting, Kame is a good partner. I'll try to watch it live.
The new announcements:

  • “忍びの国” (Shinobi no kuni). Release Date: July 1, 2017. Ohno satoshi

  • “先に生まれただけの僕 (Saki ni Umareta dake no Boku)” Starts in October with  Sho Sakurai as Ryosuke Narumi. [dorama]

  • “ナラタージュ” (Narratage) Release date on October 07, 2017. Jun Matsumoto

  • “ラストレシピ ~麒麟の舌の記憶~(last recepie, kirin no shita no kioku) Release Date on November 3, 2017. Kazunari Ninomiya

  • 99.9―刑事専門弁護士― SEASON II (99.9 -Keiji Senmon Bengoshi- SEASON II). Starts January 2018. With Jun Matsumoto as Hiroto Miyama. [dorama]

  • “検察側の罪人”(Kensatsugawa no Zainin) Relase date in the ends of 2018. Kazunari Ninomiya [it doesn’t even start shooting]
