I started to fill this out, but then I realized there were questions that didn't have the answer I wanted to choose.

So in the spirit of extending my procrastination on work, I'll post some of my thoughts here.

I don't think there's a question about whether a BW DVD will be released. I think it'll probably be released same time the Scene tour Dome DVD was released last year, so around June?

I don't know about the venues b/c I don't know how that's normally decided, but I don't think it'll be two different releases, because they're all so incredibly busy this year I don't see how they would be able to prepare for something like this (especially if they want to include extras), unless they leave it all up to other people to make the final call and don't take any part in the editing process. If only one person was to be involved, I think Jun, since he's so meticulous about this sort of thing. And he'll be finishing up L7 soon, so he'll have a wee bit more time on his hands than the others for now.

I also don't know what to think of the singles. If there's a single for both Aiba and Ohno's dramas, I wonder how they'll promote them. As it stands, I still don't get why Waiha was released so late after L7 began airing. If there's a single also for Sho's Blackboard SP, NazoDi SP and Nino's movie, I just don't know how they are going to get all that out, plus host 24 hr, release all their dramas on DVDs, etc.

I really hope it gets released before June!!! It looks far away, although the way my days goes by, in no time June will be here... Nazodi SP looked so far ahead and we will have it in a couple of weeks!

I want two releases because it really looks kind of weird releasing two versions one year and coming back to just one when they are still going so strong! right?

Now that Jun and Sho will be done with their dramas, maybe they can work on it together?? That would be good!

Waiha was released so late!! and now if they are having singles for the dramas of Ohno and Aiba they will be so close! Actually thinking about it has made me think that maybe they don't release any! and both dramas have themes by somebody else! Arggh! no!!

Don't think there will be singles for Nazodi SP (they will use Meikyuu) or Blackboard... Nino's movie maybe, though ;) Just my two cents ;)

They are too busy!!! Which is good for some things but bad for others (like the releases or concerts)

It was definitely abnormal, right? That Waiha was released so late? I truly believe that if it was released at the beginning of the dramas, L7s ratings would have been higher. How could it possibly not?!

But you know, it was probably delayed because (surprise surprise) the boys were too busy. :/

I want two releases too, but if both are going to be somewhat crappy, I'll settle for one quality one. And please, with at least one or two extras!

That's true, Sho's finishing up too, so if Sho and Jun can collaborate, then I trust them to give us awesome concert DVDs. I just really don't want to be disappointed, as it'll be my first time shelling out for the one (or two) DVDs instead of watching DVD-ripped versions.

As an Arashian, I'm loving all this Arashi exposure, but for others, it may be too much? (the horror!!) But it would be so messed up if Aiba and Ohno's dramas didn't have Arashi themes, nooo!!

Ok, if the NazoDi SP and Blackboard SPs don't need singles, then maybe it gives them a bit more room to breath, but still, 24 hr is a huge huge thing, and also the Olympics. Not to mention their regular shows, that they seem to be doing a lot of SPs for (which again, I love, but I think it's taking a toll on the boys).

I say this after watching the last AniS w/Toma, and Jun looked so beat.

But yes, I wish I had the BW DVD right now in hand. Their concert DVDs rock my socks off, and I love working out while watching them too LOL. An hour goes by so quickly! xD
