one more Candle Sho and Candle Jun snippet
from JON 03/02
5といえば、5人組の嵐。最近のメンバーエピソードは？
「キャンドル翔（櫻井翔）がキャンドルをくれて、『これで君もキャンドル潤だ』って(笑）。『ラッキーセブン』の撮影と、翔くんの『謎解きはディナーのあとで』SPの撮影が重なっていて、翔くんが俺の前室に持ってきてくれたんだよ。瑛太以外の探偵社のメンバー全員が揃ってたんだけど、俺は着替え中で。翔くんがタキシードみたいなあの執事姿で待ってたから、みんなはその姿にツッコんでいいのかわからず、気まずい空気だったみたい（笑）。もらったキャンドルはすごくいい香りで。これからは前室でキャンドルをたこう！って、みんなで盛り上がったよ」

THIS IS ME, RIGHT NOW
so first, I woke up this morning to find out that my download of Tokyo Jihen’s DISCOVERY DVD ISO has finished.
then, the two Spring 2012 Arashi dramas are confirmed. I am super happy that they are true but I do not find the plots very interesting so far. And why no more 恋愛 dramas for them?! I would be very excited to see Ohno in one, preferably with Nakama Yukie too.
then I clicked my Real...

recent Sakumoto things
｢TV LIFE｣5号 翌日、隣のスタジオには「ラッキーセブン」の収録で松潤が。テンション高めにキャンドルを差し入れに行った執事姿の翔君だけど、メンバー勢ぞろいで浮ついたムードでもなく、とても気まずかったけど。頑張れ“キャンドル翔”！
｢TVぴあ｣2/29号 「実はこの作品（謎ディ）と『ラッキーセブン』を撮っているスタジオが隣り合わせで、マツジュンの所によく遊びに行ってます。 でも先日、執事の格好のまま『ハイどうも』って高めのテンションで控室に入ったら探偵社のみんながいて。その時はなかなかのドン引き具合でしたね（笑）。 まぁお互いに撮影があるのでマツジュンとはなかなかタイミングが合わないけど、 一日に一回ぐらい会いに行けたらいいかな、と思っています」

so...
it was after all huh. to be honest, I think that they really are dating but starting a family wasn’t in their plans at the moment. Jin knocked Meisa up but I seriously think that her agency won’t let her not be married and pregnant, hence the shotgun wedding. I can’t say much about Jin since I was never a fan but I’m pretty sad about how Meisa’s career will turn out...
5 tags
so wait, is it confirmed or not?
if true, well my reality of Ohno and Meisa being together will be crushed and I will spend the day moping around.
if not; Jin is probably a decoy for Ohno because we all know that JE would be closely guarding Ohno more rather than Jin (THERE. I SAID IT.)

can anybody confirm the story that on Sho’s birthday, he only received mails from Ohno, Aiba, and Nino. And Jun purposely did not send him one because they were apparently meeting the next day (though it’s already January 26) and it was probably also the day where he dropped by Lucky Seven studio and joked about appearing in the drama but was denied. /EVERYTHING HERE IS UNCONFIRMED and...

bawling in a corner now
school food punishment has announced an indefinite hiatus via their official website today. no definite plans of when they are going to come back but they do want to pursue their own separate paths as musicians. and that’s synonymous to “we’re disbanding, just not now because we want to prolong your agony”.

to be released next year
a novel adaptation of the same name from the same author of Ryusei no Kizuna
a sci-fi suspense dealing with DNA investigation
sources 1, 2

anyone have Ohisama download links?
I’m seriously in need of this asadora. I only have episodes 1-6 downloaded before Megaupload and Filserve both wiped out the links. I’m trying d-addicts now but it’s too slow and nearly no more seeders. If there’s anybody who can help, I’ll be completely grateful!

today is a sad day
pretty much a love letter for megaupload
when I started in the fandom back in 2006, Megaupload was pretty much still in its early stages and did not have any country restrictions so I hoarded all Arashi PVs there in MQ and various random Shukudai and Mago Mago Arashi episodes from Thai blogs because resources were even scarce in LJ (yes, a_ra_shi was still starting then and arashi_on...

why do I find it funny that the girl who played Mika in Lucky Seven share the same last name with Jun (also, same kanji).
YES. THE THINGS THAT AMUSE WHILE AT WORK.

now confirmed, Arashi will no longer be representing au by KDDI. au has already published a press release regarding the new endorsers of au: Igawa Haruka, Iseya Yusuke, Gouriki Ayame and a cartoon character I am not familiar of.

the part where I talk too much
I felt a pang of pain in my chest when people started posting about how au KDDI will no longer be featuring Arashi in their campaigns. I’ve always liked their cms for that. I personally don’t think it’s because Arashi is not being effective as endorsers seeing that they are still raking it in with more endorsements year after year but maybe au KDDI will be changing their approach...

GQ Japan Men of the Year
2008 MATSUMOTO JUN 2009 SAKURAI SHO 2010 OSAMU MUKAI (C-C-C-COMBO BREAKER) 2011 OHNO SATOSHI
Ohno got the title this year alongside Ryuichi Sakamoto (OMG!!), Darvish Yu, Tanaka Yoshikazu, and Norio Sasaki.
A year has already passed and GQ Japan has already hailed their new pool of men of the year but I still think that Nino got so robbed of the title last year. While Osamu Mukai got such a...

just when I thought that this year was about to end without a last Sakumoto explosion, Himitsu no Arashi-chan Christmas Special comes marching right in front of my face. seems a pretty good deal after the ain’t-happening-NazoDi-cameo situation. still hoping tha the Ohno tanpatsu cameo will have them both in a single scene.
Lastly, I’ll just sit here and think creepily how Kitano Kii...

YAY LUCKY SEVEN DRAMA CAST IS UP UP UP
no one in the rumored cast is there, thankfully but I will definitely miss that possible Kindaichi reunion. ANYWAY, MATSUSHIMA NANAKO IS IN IT!! DOMYOUJI SIBLINGS REUNION!! OMG FLAIL she might have missed Hanadan Final but I’m glad to see her working again with Jun, also she needs to guest on Himitsu no Arashi-chan too (and Takeuchi Yuko—just saying). I think that her character is the...

I HAVEN’T GIVEN UP YET. A tiny part of my heart is still hoping and believing that Jun will cameo in Nazotoki wa Dinner no Ato de. But if that won’t happen, a scene with Kageyama being all DoS to Jun’s Shuntaro (?) character would be very much welcomed. (ALL I WANT FOR CHRISTMAS IS AN EFFING CONFIRMATION THAT THE SCENE WOULD HAVE BOTH OF THEM IN IT.)

I’VE BEEN WAITING SINCE FOREVER FOR JUN AND SHO TO INTERACT WITH KIDS AS A PAIR.
Mago Mago Arashi Arashi no Totsugeki Kodomo no Bangohan has already failed me.
Himitsu no Arashi-chan Arashi Childminder did the same.
WHY CAN’T THEY JUST BE ON THAT KIND OF EPISODE TOGETHER? I want to see Sho being all good with the kids, being very hands-on, while Jun being the one to do all the other...

with the amazing news that is called Sho’s latest j-web entry, is it possible to assume that Jun either picked up his boyfriend from work or has visited the set to shoot his cameo appearance?
my brain refuses to recognize that it might be just a casual meeting but then does any member do that anyway? HIGHLY IMPOSSIBLE TO DO IT WITHOUT ANY PARTICULAR REASON SINCE JUN IS A VERY BUSY PERSON...

I can’t boycott NBC just yet. I still need the closure of Chuck and I NEED PARKS AND RECREATION IN MY LIFE. but I’m still pissed that they shelved Community. Community is a great show and their comedy style is different from most kind of comedies you will find on currently airing American sitcoms. They should have pulled the plug on Whitney instead.

don't rain on my parade
Ohno’s thing is just a Tanpatsu, not a Renzoku. I’LL BE KEEPING MY FINGERS CROSSED THAT IT WILL JUN WHO WILL CAMEO ON SHO’S DRAMA. bonus points will be given to Fuji TV if they both cameo though, but hopefully on different episodes because I can be very selfish (think Yoiko no Mikata!).
but then, who am I to dictate such circumstances to happen.

remember the time when Nino did a cameo role for Natsuniji? What did Jun do?
HE HUGGED NINO.
