This comes after just the first raw watching... so well, they are just rambling before I forget. Want to know my change of thoughts after I watched it again and check the sub-ed version.

Spoilerish...

( Read more... )

I think I need more than several 140 characters posts to express myself... Definitely journal posts are way better for that... At least thoughts flow better (at least in my case)

I'm still in a post-Shitsuren Chocolatier flailing mood. I'm still really excited but I am keeping it to myself. It's that feeling of not wanting anybody to burst my bubble... Not sure it makes sense. I really love the first episode and my over active imagination has this little plot about how I'd like things to develop (won't last too much as the manga is around there and I'm checking it out) that I want to enjoy for a little longer, maybe until VSA tomorrow XDD

Shouta is so cute it hurts!!!

I wonder how J feels about episode 1 final result. Hope he is proud of it! Rating was 14,4% for what I've been told, which is good... But really doesn't leave a lot of room for decreasing right? I hope people keep being loyal to it. I wish those not living in Japan and watching counted *pout* You are doing great J!!

Anyway, I'm really looking forward to get to OST. Today saw a link to 7net shop that says that they will release it on February 26. So far, cdjapan/yesasia don't have it listed yet, but Amazon JP does have it: HERE So those using Amazon JP can already pre-order it. I'm really considering doing so myself...

Now, several other things I've been thinking/flailing/wondering about.

Ohno's crush on Satomi. Oh gosh, probably it's me seeing things where they aren't but, have you noticed how during Hey!Hey!Hey! they asked him to choose the person asking their question first, and he had two beautiful well known girls, Satomi and Rola, but he chose Satomi!!! XDD That moment made me lol big time! and I was telling speaking aloud to Riida, telling him that he shouldn't be that obvious or if the wants to, he should just take a step and do something about that cute crush! They would be adorable, don't you think? Well, at least I do XDD

I know some may say that it was good to start with her for Chocolatier promotion... but wouldn't it be better if she was the last one, following that line of thought? I dunno. I think he couldn't resist himself...

Also, I keep thinking that Aiba was the cutest thing ever during Hey!Hey!Hey!. when Sho admitted that he would date him when Aiba said he couldn't date Sho. He was blushing big time!!! I wonder why... was he really caught out guard by Sho's words, was he feeling awful because of the outcome... Because when Nino says that he wouldn't date Aiba, I bet Aiba was expecting that, since well, Aiba knows Nino as well as he knows himself, I bet... but he didn't expect that Sho said that and was so cute while saying it XD oohhh the feelings!

Also, also... I got annoyed by the Downtown guy next to Jun. Did you notice how many times he was slapping Jun's leg? That type of thing bothers me so much!!!! I imagine that in Jun's head there was this image of himself standing up and just punching the guy XDD The guy also dared to slap him on the head too... and J being the nice boy he is with that 'I am not really amused but have to look like I am' smile plastered on his face Lol!!

I would have kissed J when the guy asked if he chose Aiba because he is 'baka' and Jun said that he was wrong several times, that it was because he is a clear/shining person... *applauses and bravos to J* (the camera was on Aiba at that point, and I like that he smiled nicely to J) Junba was so very cute!!!!! --> you two can move together only if you allow Sho and Nino to be there most of the time XD (Riida would be probably fishing or enjoying his hamaka, or that floating houses it seems he is checking - not sure what that rumor is about)

Oh, that reminds me. I AM NOT COMPLAINING ABOUT THE AMOUNT OF SAKUMOTO LATELY. But I have this tendency to think the worst... So I wonder... could it be possible that JE saw/realized that sakumoto is a growing in popularity pair and suggested them both that they should be nicer/closer to each other... Because it's too good to be true!!! ~ ~ ❤

Bittersweet already grew on me and I already love it! Hope it happens the same with Road to Glory because for now, I am not really feeling it... :S I am so curious about the cd cover and photo shoot about it!!! Oh, that means more shop photos!!! nooooo! yesssss! (mixed feelings there because I want them all, but not sure when to buy them...)

They were really cute in the performance but I lol-ed so much when I saw a photoshop-ed image of them in that triangle like formation with a bonfire in front of them!!! Really!! LMAO!!

So, there are rumors of fans complaining to FujiTV for the bath scene with Kiko and all that. That is... so TIRING! I really wish fans in Japan would behave more, I don't know... normal? less pathologically clingy/jealous? I dunno really! Don't they realize that Arashi interacts/are touched by lots of people daily?! Those doing their make up/wardrobe people/dentist/stylist... I mean, come on!!! And they realize also that probably J and Kiko are both with swimming trunks/suits or something right? At least in their lower parts...

But if Fuji changes things because of fans, they will be the ones to blame. Since when that is the way to go? Now they are asking that, next time what?! In that sense, I'm kind of glad that JE doesn't accept all that fans say around (although they are already doing enough, not allowing them to date/marry/have kids) Oh, all those gray areas made me feel really 'blah' and disappointed in how things are in Japan entertainment/Arashi fandom.

Speaking of Arashi fandom. Let me say this: Yes, it's rainbow land, and yes, in general I am happy being part of the fandom... But sometimes, fans behaviour disappoints me and makes me go 'wth!' more than before, really... :S and it's just in terms on manners... I wonder, really what their parents taught them in that department :S

I had more things to say, but I can't remember now and this is long enough ;)

I am not making sense... and there may be some spoilers (but just about the general plot)

( read at your own risk )

Title : True Lies
Rating : R (for language and description of violence)
Pairing : Sakumoto Sho/Jun (only mention of others)
Genre: Spies AU (one-shot)
Word Count: ~3000
Disclaimer: Own nothing. Fiction. Everybody knows that already.
Summary : Jun and Sho are spies. Shit and feelings happen. I am not good at this. Jun's P.O.V.
Thanks to cypros for checking this out first.
Notes: It's been literally ages since last time I wrote something. I really thought I couldn't finish anything... And this came. It isn't a super original plot, I think, but had fun writing it and it's what I usually would love to read: yes, the h/c works for me. This is NOT the Prime Minister AU, sadly... (just yet)
Inspired in some weird way by the Class J poster and Sho's latest Jins cm...
Btw: No Sho was damaged in the writing of this fic.

because it has come to my attention (via rumors) that it seems there are a lot of people who want Shake it! performed again at Arafes (or maybe it's yabai or any other).

I may be a little radical about this, but all those solos are already on dvd! There are currently 2 JUN SOLOS not on dvd! I can't understand why people don't want them at least on dvd once?! Is it okay with just a tiny/lq fancam version from youku??? For me it is not enough! I want those two solos on dvd so badly it hurts!! Especially Naked...

So please, if you don't really care what Jun's solo is performed or you aren't sure which one to vote for... please consider voting for Naked (or maybe W/me). Naked it's a beautiful solo and Jun looks so good!!

I know there are some new fans who really love Shake it! or We wanna funk... but really, Naked is not going to disappoint you (imagine if the other members dance with him!! With no shirt and with no shoes!!! I want that on dvd!!)

So you can check it out, in a lq/fc version HERE: http://v.youku.com/v_show/id_XMTg3NjAwOTE2.html

You can see caps nicely put together for a user of tumblr HERE.

Please, take a moment to watch it and if you like it, please vote for it, onegaishimasu! orz

This may be a bit low, me promoting what I want, but well, I'm really invested, what can I say! And I know some fans just vote quick not really thinking what they were voting... There are tons of beautiful songs that are not on dvd! So take the time to study or consider your votes a bit...

17 june is a Monday, wouldn't it be cool that after Ichimen, Sho stopped for a moment and Wished Nino 'Happy Birthday!' and after that they make this tiny remembrance vtr with the movies he has done, especially Letters from Iwo Jima with Eastwood and all...

Ohhh that would be cool! And also Ohno should declare once again his love for his Ninomiya during his AD... wouldn't it be fair? At least that?! for all the Ohmiya SK moments they had given us? Nino enters Riida's decade!! He should do some mention right?

Jun's b-day is in a Friday the week after 24h tv. I doubt they have concert/Arasfes in that weekend, but maybe they prepare something for him and Nino during 24h tv.

I can't believe, I can't accept that the youngest members of Arashi won't get an special treatment/celebration for their 30th Birthday...

You know what would be touching and totally tear-jerking: Jun reading a letter to all the members as after Jun's b-day all of them will be in their 30s... So grown up the boys!!!

So, poll time!!! *applauses/booing*

[Poll #1918888]

❤

*speechless*

I do enjoy all the detectivesque stuff we do for the boys... They are so vague and secretive when they want! Also their management sometimes too... *sigh* But I do wish we could get more confirmation...

So, Ohno finally admitted he was in London and Paris with J. I still don't understand why J didn't mention he was with Riida in his Enjoy... but knowing J I bet it was because it's not for him to say... Now, I wonder if he did say that he went with Riida and Aiba to NY... Will have to track down that entry of Enjoy :S

Anyway, Riida was pretty careful about what he said which has led to a long discussion about what he did in both cities around twitter XDD

So they went to a concert. I guess that was in Paris. Although I've been trying to search for concerts that were held in Paris during the supposed days they went there... the only one that matches, if the dates are right, it's the Beyonce concert, as her concerts in Paris were on 24 and 25 April.

Btw, it may fit into what J likes in concerts. Check her tour promo video HERE.

He says it was 2 nights in Paris and 2 nights in London.

Riida says that both went to the Louvre but I inferred from Jun's Enjoy that he was by himself in London, to check Big Ben and Westminster... :/

And for what Riida says about him having to stay at the hotel, i guess that was the time when J went shopping (as fans' reports said)?

But it seems Ohno did have time to go with or without J to get some t-shirts for the members... If he went to the Beatles shop as he said, I want to cry! that is not far from my house!

Some fans think that while in London they should have checked the David Bowie exhibition being held at the V&A museum... They could, honestly, but I am sorry for the poor guy/woman who had to get the tickets for them... It's pretty sold out for pre-order/online tickets :S I haven't been able to go myself yet! *cries*

I wonder what that deadline and secretive stuff that had to be done at the hotel was... Oh I need to know!!!

(thank you to twosen for the translation of this morning's AD ;)

This rumor, so far, is confirmed as RUMOR... It seems the person who spread it apologized ¬¬

Now, it also seems that there is this rumor going around that Aiba is the one starring in the 24h tv drama... Not confirmed just yet... but if the rumors are true... I don't really know what to think. Part of me is happy because I am happy that Aiba gets more drama roles and the title I have seen around it's just too sweet and fits Aiba nicely... BUT, and it's a big but, if the rumors are true and it deals with lung illness, I don't really like it.

Maybe I am weird but I don't like when dramas link to things that happen in reality (Aiba and his lungs) so for me that is a bit tasteless, for a lack of another word...

Also, if rumors are right and O-chan is his doctor. Honestly, isn't that a consolation price for Riida?! I mean if I were a Ohno ichibaner I would be furious! Apart from the fact that I love Ohno's acting, but I doctor is not the first thing that comes to mind when I think about next Riida's acting job :S

Some said something was mentioned at Miyaneya today but I haven't been able to find it so far (still checking)...

And for what I can tell, those I follow around wb who are Aiba fans haven't said a word, so I tend to think that it is a rumor until I get confirmation of it...

1. Do any of you buy regularly at amazon.jp? I always stop myself from do it so because I've been told that shipping fees are high... I want to buy some books... probably is not wise right? Any advice...? (No, not all the books are available at CDJ or YA).

2. I keep looking for info about Jun's asymmetrical jeans from BW tour. The only ones I find are from Vivienne Westwood (when I look for asymmetrical)... I really want some info :S *desperate here* HELP PLEASE? do you know how can I look for it in Japanese/Chinese/Korean? just in case I get luckier looking for the jeans that way...

3. Have you seen Kat-tun's Junno's solo - Flash pv? In my opinion he is the cutest in Kat-tun... I love the pv. It's simple but it's a dance number and I love this kind of pv :D Actually, I enjoyed Kame's cameo... and also made me wonder about fics with this pair :P Any rec?
HERE you can check it out via aramatheydidnt comm (Oh, I love the black sneakers boots he is wearing, btw)

Why Arashi don't have pv for solos...?! Imagine one for T.A.B.O.O. or We want a funk, we need a funk... *dreams awake*

4. Have you read today's Ohno's Discovery translation? It isn't that special but it made me smile that he mentioned the artists he knows and meets... and how he is still doing figurines (don't really like them, I prefer his drawings/paintings)... I keep thinking he is preparing an art exhibition. Am I the only one? And if you think the same way... Do you dare to venture a date for it? ;) (credit for the translation to twosen)

Haven't watched VSA properly, will do now... but just after watching the pics from weibo I can do so flailing...


because Jun looks just too cute with his new hair cut and he did awesome in Pinball runner... and he was so handsome and ashdfalkshdfkashfkashfdlkasdhflaksdhf, yes! He did!

And they were cute at the beginning with no Aiba (based on caps, haven't seen it!) and Aiba was just to cute in some moments like in the bowling part

And Sho looks really idol-less due to this normal-looking eyebrows but he looks just too cute and too hug-able and have such a need to go and pat him...

And I don't know how I feel about also sharing b-day with that girl from Last Hope and Yama Taro... Truth be told, I liked her in Yama Taro, more or less and she seems fine sometimes, but some others... :S She goes into that category of Japanese actresses that I feel a bit blah about (i.e. Horikita Maki)


Also... I am so deeply in love with Tokei Jikake no Umbrella choreo... To talk about Arafes sounds like old news but for me, apart from, Happiness and Shake it!, Gimmick Game, Love Situation and Face Down performance, my absolutely favorite parts are (of course) DJxMJ + La Tormenta + Tokei! Maybe it is every single second of the DJxMJ -Masaki.com and Magical Song are just <3<3<3<3<3-, maybe it's related to those hot outfits (especially Jun's), maybe is the sakumoto moment at the beginning of La Tormenta, or maybe how hot and focused they look during the Tokei dance. And knowing Ohno's created it... make my heart doki doki (I can't recall Superfresh's too well, but although I liked that one too, I prefer Tokei's more!

Btw, which other choreos did Ohno create? I know I read it somewhere but didn't keep the link or write them down *headdesk*

Oh! and Breathless confirmed as Platina Data's theme! I am so curious about it!! When will we get a sneak preview of it? or of Calling's PV? I am not picky! But, NOW!!! *waiting impatiently*

I tend to repeat myself, yep, I'm like that. It isn't like I don't remember what I talk about but more than I get ideas fixed in my head and I can't shake them...

So yes, I am still sakumoto fic deprived. I've been re-reading fics I love and enjoyed a lot... I've been reading fics I somehow missed reading... I've been reading fics with plots that I may not read in other situation... I've been reading my own unfinished fics and notes... Inspiration to finish something eludes me lately...

*sigh*

As I said, I've been re-reading fics. Today I read some of astrangerenters because you know how awesome her sakumoto is!

I was doing the dishes (some stuff can't go into the dishwasher u.u') and I was thinking about these three slighly crazy sakumoto prompts and I thought I am going to post them openly so maybe somebody is inspired enough to write them...

The boys as janitors. The image I got in my head is Jun and Sho with overalls, like Ohno in Saigo no Yakusoku... (also I saw the pics of Jun with rubber gloves from the Waku Waku...). I imagined Jun with one of these black rimmed glasses that suits him so well. They don't actually have to be janitors... maybe they have a secret identity...

Jun is in love with the sexy manly voice in English he listens to and assist him when he calls phone assistance/customer service/English lesson online?... for whatever you can come up with (inspired by the teaser of next week's Himitsu, what can I say?

Snowhite retold ('Snowhite and the Huntsman' version of the likes -that I watched on Wednesday, not the Disney one, please!). Jun is the male version of her -don't really enjoy change of sex fics- Sho can be whoever you want but there has to be sakumoto and has a happy ending for them, that's all I ask (please don't make Sho a dwarf, please!)

*small voice* if you want to make any of this matsumiya I am fine with it, although I am craving sakumoto like crazy!

I've just finished re-watching 'Myuu no Anyo Papa ni Ageru'... because well, I miss Jun and I really like that SP drama...

...but it got me thinking about the upcoming 24 hours terebi and the possible drama and I decided to make this little poll (just 1 question!)

[Poll #1834645]

I also wonder if there will be a theme, and/or if there will be a letter.

I get the impression that the boys want to make a 24h terebi about the Earthquake and how affected people or how they are recovering from it, so maybe a drama as usual is not the case... maybe a docu-drama like the one Sho made about Kobe's, or not drama at all (as I put up there as last option)...

Well, I'd love to read other people's opinion, so if you could elaborate in the comments section would be amazing! ^^

I haven't decided my vote yet, which is strange, really, because last night I had it pretty clear, or at least the one I hated I had it pretty clear -it was number 4- but for some strange reason I am getting fond of it lol! I know I am sick or something...

Apart from that, some parts of the outfits reminds me of things or moments and now I can't make up my mind.

One thing lead to another...
