Kanesugi Fumio’s blog. Arashi’s chief manager in one of my young friends. I see that he feels enthusiastic about Arashi like managers in the past. It could be far from Estamp agency (regarding guarantee.) I’ve seen his guts of sixth Arashi at offstage areas of national stadium.
Shibuya Station of Toyoko Line, full of poster of VS Arashi! looks so good!!!!!!
New version of Arashi poster at AU shop!
Orista, Sho Sakurai genteelly shows up. The reason why his relaxed sweet smile? In current issue of Orista, Sakurai-kun shows up for serial of “Himitsu no Arashi-chan”. Inside story of photo shooting. I told him “this time in genteelly atmosphere.” He answered smiling to camera “yes, I see.” I told him ” I’m glad if the atmosphere that you relaxed in your room,” he said, “Is it better I lie down?” He makes relaxed face after touching fluffy cushion. We take that moment.

J-web, Otonoha Updated. Well, It’s me. Recently I do exercise as usual. Once or twice a week. Persistence is power. This is training with trainee. For example … the course with slope projected on the big screen I ride bike…Then I breathe only from nose or only from mouth….doing interval training…. I do various things using bike taking my pulse. Then. After riding for 20 min, training using balance ball. Totally I do roughly for 1 hour. Then core training. It’s been 4th month since I started doing regularly. Finally my trainee told me “Oh! Your muscle is getting much more flexible!!” Oh ! No! I can’t do “Kacchikachi”any more! (inflexibleness… actually the gag Sho-chan shows at Utaban showing his arm muscle.) (This is not your gag.) Me, Former Kacchikachi. (It’s not your gag from very fast) well, Can I say now…. Declaration of “out from kachikachi”!! Yep. It’s goodbye to myself of that days. I will live as “former Kacchikachi” in future. Thanks a lot my muscle for many memories. I see you Someday. ….yep. Well, the other day as it was announced, I will play documentary drama of Hanshin-Awaji earthquake disaster. I started filming exactly that day.  There’re many fierce scenes so it is physically and also mentally not easy. I feel happy every day to act such a role. I think it will on air next year? Please <m(_ _)m>

Musicians?

[ayu-mi-kay.livejournal.com]

Hello! I was wondering this today:

I know that Ninomiya is musically talented and can play the guitar and piano, but I was wondering if any of the other Arashi members can play any instruments. Have they ever performed any songs either for a CD or live? Also, I know Sho writes the lyrics to his rap sections, but does he write lyrics to any other songs? How about the other members?

Sorry for the n00bie question. I've just became an Arashi fan two month ago ^_^

[Subbed] Hana Yori Dango Final DVD - Making Of

[nachosnpaprika.livejournal.com]

Full of hilarious behind-the-scenes and dorky bloopers and fail XD

Hana Yori Dango Final - Making Of
Summary:
What can I say? It IS the Making! It's a JunXMao-centric fifty-seven minutes but F3 make frequent appearances as they go from Hong Kong to Las Vegas to Okinawa. Expect plenty of dorky behind-the-scenes, hilarious bloopers and most of all, fail! Shota-kun is a goldmine of fail and seasick expressions ♥ Watch Shun-kun poach all of the food on the set and Abe-san show off his multilingualism while Jun and Mao show us domestic bliss through their sunglasses-wearing, caveman fire-lighting, shampooing and car-vandalising ways.
