Would anyone happen to know what this book is all about, exactly? My sister picked it up for me at Kinokuniya (Singapore) and I know just a bit of Nihongo to be able to tell you that it contains profiles, interview-like questions, answers from the boys, etc. I'm not sure this is official, though. Possibly something like the Otakara photobooks?

From the way the editing looks, I'm pretty convinced it's an unofficial one. :))

As people have already answered, it's not official, but so you can tell in the future - all official photobooks will be promoted either on the J-storm site or the Johnny's main site. Sadly wiki.theppn is down, but I used to have a list of all their official photobooks up there. If you go to their Japanese wikipedia entry (http://ja.wikipedia.org/wiki/%E5%B5%90_(%E3%82%B8%E3%83%A3%E3%83%8B%E3%83%BC%E3%82%BA)) though and scroll waaaay down past the list of singles, albums and concerts, you'll see a section called 写真集 (Photobooks). This lists every official all-Arashi photobook. As for individual ones, only Nino and Jun have had official ones, and they were tied in to movies (Ao no Honoo, BokuImo, HanaDan). The other way to tell just by looking at the book is to flip through the pictures inside - if they look mostly like paparazzi shots then it's not offical. All official photobooks will have photos that actually look professionally taken or staged - Arashi won't look like they're trying to hide from the camera.

hihi, my friend bought it for me when she went to Malaysia, however, i have to tell you that it's fake.really. nino's birthday was WRONG. i was totally O_O but I appreciated her gesture. Please dont buy it or something, cause the cover page itself is distorted, so it's totally not worth.
