arashi_on
UPDATE 
Yuji Shimomura, action director of Ganz (U’den grame works) blog, today Hiroyoki Yoshida-san came to help us to the site. Hiroyuki Yoshida a stunt man’s blog. Yesterday (2/21) I participate U’den –san’ site. It’s team that has already worked for 4 month. I visited brassily there just like I’ve been there always. As this is large scale movie the filming pave is slow. This time for 2 day I worked as wire rigger. I think they don’t take many times and played with concentration. Mainichi, the highlight of spring re-organization of program is Arashi’s talk variety show “Arashi ni Shiygagare” (every Saturday 22:00” of Arashi challenge ad-lib without knowing guest and content. Every time different guest and set according to guest. There’s section to learn the professional domain and other prepared. (seems show title is Arashi ni Shiyagare is definitive no more draft word come along) Kabachi, staff blog, about Nakamura-san, Kurihara(FM Yoohama DJ) blog, write about today's Arashi discovery RBB Navi, celebrities of cat tpe, no.1 Shun Oguri, no.2 Masaharu Fukuyama, Teppei Koike, Jun Matsumoto, Gackt. Neko Hiroshi. Rakuten news, <TV writer who worked with Arashi for 10 years disclose bad story on his blog.> On 14 Feb. one blog, an article obscurely uploaded title “Do you think this is bad story?” (currently this is deleted) I introduce the content roughly. At small section of big company “The product (Arashi) was ploddingly created for 10 years.” One day it got smash hit. Then that company shifts everything of the product to major star section in order to make it a major product. Then small section was ordered easily to dissolution. The guy who belongs to the section. “He doesn’t want to see that product any more.” He comes to have such a feeling. This is story. You don’t understand what this meaning only with this. indeed this article, Motoichi Adachi, a TV writer wrote on his blog “Motoichi Adachi and aspiring TV writers” He used to handle popular shows of Sanma Akashiya, Tonneruzu, Smap, Downtown in the same time. He got over 200% of total of audience rate for a week. He calls himself “200% audience rate guy”, a popular TV writer. He handled C no Arashi, D no Arashi, G no Arashi then current Arashi no Shukudai-kun. If you hear this you already understand what this article means. TV related people says “From April ‘Arashi no Shukudai-kun’ will be renewal and shifts to the frame following by current “Enta no kami-sama” The contents will be changed completely and staffs are planned to be changed completely. It’s rare that to protest like him. Staffs who watched Arashi grow up would have with mixed feelings. “Arashi currently has 3 shows “Arashi no Shukudai-kun” VS Arashi” “Himitsu no Arashi-chan!” There’s a group that don’t have any original TV show among Johnny’s agency. Comparing this, it’s enormous deal. As number of CD, DVD sales and attendance prove, number of fans that has momentum likely to surpass Smap. The rest is popularity of each members, they must thought so, the individual appearance or drama comes to overplus. A TV writer “VS Arashi and Himitsu no Arashi-chan average rate is 12-13%. Comparing glory days Smap x Smap over 30%. It’s still a lot to go. Tokujo Kabachi of Sho Sakurai is average 10% (last episode is 7.2 so far 9.78%) Johnny’s agency must feel pressed to achieve the results early and make them as national idol following by Smap. Strongly pressure won’t have good result or so someone thought” I think it’s pretty childish to say the TV show of the talent that he’s created for 10 years “don’t see any more” “change channel if that product come up on TV” I think the way of Johnny’s is hardhearted that makes their staffs like family think so. I hope they don’t plan a strategy that fans who keep cheering them purely would be sad… Toshinoshi Komatsu (Gantz co-star) blog. Today my role was completed. Filming will be continued. This was my first movie, heartwarming site, wonderful senior and stoic and beautiful staff work. Movie on theater next new-year. Gantz. Please look forward to it.

6:45-6:55 Arashi Discovery Satoshi Ohno FM Yokohama Today’s topic was pickles. Hmm. Pickles is yummy. Err, pickles on the boar is really good. I almost always bring Turnip Greens pickles or Chinese cabbage pickles. And cup noodle on the boat. It’s yummy to eat it at home cubbily. If you eat tightly, it should be yummy but it’s pretty ordinary, right? (on the boat) “this is best!” Just like that. Can you feel that? Regarding pickles, I eat it at home. You see pickles are not so yummy, right? But on the boat it’s delicious like ethereal gusto. Don’t you understand that? It’s really so yummy. And sweet too. You have good appetite. If you eat in the room, sweets are yummy certainly. But, I you eat it on the boat, it’s like “what’s this?” I become like I wanna dive into sea. Don’t you understand that?

Date: 2010-02-23 05:34 am (UTC)I was still in denial about AnS.. but gah~ This makes me sad.. >_< Specially since the whole staff will be changed.. :( I'm a bit unsure about the new show and now that I heard it's new staff.. I'm a bit worried. But it's Arashi so I'm sure it's going to be interesting nonetheless. It would have been nice to have the same staff as Shukudai though..
About SMAP's 30%.. (if my ratings understanding is right and it's based on TV viewing..) I think times have changed. I mean now people have more means to watch shows other than on TV. For example, I don't watch a lot of TV here and the american shows I watch are usually just online. I very rarely watch shows on TV. I don't know when SMAPxSMAP started.. and I don't even know if I'm right about how they survey TV ratings. Correct me if I'm wrong.
I hope they stop comparing SMAP and Arashi. They are two distinct groups and are from two different generations. It's like comparing Michael Jordan and Kobe Bryant or LeBron James.. LOL XD

Date: 2010-02-23 05:43 am (UTC)i hope he won't see Arashi as bad guy or something ...it is not really their fault for staff changing rather it is Johnny who decide the matter....
i just don't understand why would they change such great teamwork and dynamic between Arashi and the staffs...
now it would be harder for them working in AnS set with many dissatisfaction between the staff waiting for the show to end:(
i really hope they can still stay with the old staff....
seriously people should stop comparing SMAP and Arashi..
they are two very different group and are great in their own way...
they share a great kouhai-senpai relationship, i don't want to hear people keep saying they are rival or Arashi will surpass them when they are from the same agency lol and suppose to show good relationship...
it hard to beat SMAP old record because time have change and it is almost impossible to get 20%-30% rating anymore^^;
even 15% is already good enough..

Date: 2010-02-23 06:20 am (UTC)He sounds upset, but "don’t see any more” “change channel if that product come up on TV” is too much.
I refuse to believe that someone producing CnA, DnA, AnS... could talk about Arashi like that. It's just so sad for Arashi.
And yes, people should stop compare Arashi and Smap. High rating like Smap did 30%, 30%... Excuse me, that's how long ago? Nowadays, people have too much entertainment means rather than TV, and there were a lot more ways to watch TV.
Anw, thanks for sharing Arashi news.
no subject
Date: 2010-02-23 06:57 am (UTC)"change channel" and "don't see any more"....sorry, but nobody tells me what entertainment to watch and not watch. He's upset about the change, but you know what? Life is full of unexpected changes. You have no choice but to keep moving foreward. Friends move away, people change jobs, kids move to different countries. That's life. Arashi fans more than anyone know the boys sing about moving forward more than enough times in their songs. The dude needs to take the hint and learn from that. It's not Arashi's fault. Frankly I think the staff change could have been needed anyway because the new show calls for improvisation, and the fact there is a new staff probably will add more to the excitement because the boys will have to find a way to entertain their guests and doing that with a new staff could be interesting, to say nothing of bring up the tension too. Not saying it didn't have to be that way, but I could understand if a new staff was decided. Move on, dude. Just move on.

Date: 2010-02-23 06:50 am (UTC)I love both groups so I HATE reading these articles. Why can't we have two groups that do good in all areas and excel in their own respective niches? Now with Arashi's recent ratings, I'm afraid that we'll see more of these articles. Please uncle Johnny, do something!! It's hurting both of your top groups.
no subject
Date: 2010-02-23 07:42 am (UTC)If you watch a lot of shows (range from CnA to AnS), you will really miss the show (and the staff as well since they are the ones who plan these stuffs) When I first learned that the staff will be changed for the next show, I am kind of sad regarding to the news, but if this new staff will produce more entertainment than the old staff, then it is better for all of us since we are gonna enjoy more lots of Arashi ♥.
About the SMAP and Arashi, as everybody is telling here, don't compare them. In this generation, to have a ratings of 20% is a very high thing in spite of people who are less interested in watching TV. A lot of people are already dependent to internet rather than the TV.
One thing that I hope that they will not change/remove the staff, ODOROKI!! XD
I would be really glad if they continue this show every once a year (or twice if possible) because aside from the silly things done by Arashi (because of the professors), I really learned a lot from that show. XD
my ramblings end here XD

Date: 2010-02-23 07:47 am (UTC)both smap and arashi have their own style,struggle and glory moments,,
smap wasnt that popular in their early debut,they worked hard for long time to reach their glory,,
arashi still have a long way to go, they still work hard to reach smaps stage and maybe even higher
so comparing them based on the rating they achive now is just not right in my opinion
i miss shukudai staff,,abi chan,,hino,,,,*who else can make guda2 eps,,,
they've worked together since cnoarashi so its sad when the staff going to change,,i wonder how arashi react to this,,

Date: 2010-02-23 08:36 am (UTC)> to be honest, why does the AnS writer needs to publicized this in the first place, Is he/she thinking that THIS will hurt Arashi. the writer was not thinking, he/she let his own emotion shadowed by his anger. he/even mentioned Arashi's "flop" ratings, for goodness sake...and the worst he/she compared it to Smap and how'z Arashi's variey show is nothing compared w/ his/er past works.......Ok OK! the writer is really "hurt" But you know the media will point this to Arashi and Arashi alone and they will not understand the whole...Actually, I pity Arashi so much...they have no control of everything...may it be good or bad it has their name..pooooor Arashi, they have no much freedom..
he/she needs to shut his freedom for a good cause...he.she is not helping Arashi to grow...sorry to say *i feel hate n depressed after reading his entry.

Date: 2010-02-23 10:04 am (UTC)smap vs arashi...again? Time have changed! Now a days many people like to record or download the show to watch it later -.-' having 30% rate in variety show now is impossible...
Wallflowes drama that have 3 johhnys have less rate than tokujou...so what? Will they put the two drama in a fight? (btw, i watch both of them so i'm not saying wallflowers is not good as tokujou...)
and thank you for the news!!!
no subject
Date: 2010-02-23 10:05 am (UTC)But still, I don't understand why there's a need to compare Arashi with SMAP again and again. Arashi may never be national idol for all we know but they are getting there in their own way, going on a different path from their sempai.
Let Arashi make their mark in entertainment world without linking them to SMAP all the time, please.
Besides, if the guy really works with Arashi from before then he should be supporting them no matter what, right?

Date: 2010-02-23 10:06 am (UTC)no subject
Date: 2010-02-23 10:25 am (UTC)Just let Arashi be what they really are.
It does not matter how much audience rate they get.
They just have to be themselve...
Moving with their own pace.
I do not see a need to pull them up so high at such a short time.
And somehow i feel that the AnS writer or any staff, the way
they post about all this, really makes me feel that they only care about themselves, please, this shows that they are using Arashi.

Date: 2010-02-23 11:20 am (UTC)ARASHI WILL BE ARASHI
seriously, saying stuff like, "the next SMAP" or something is almost an insult to 10 years of Arashi's hardwork. They worked hard to be the Arashi that they are today and everybody should recognize that and give the 5 of them the credit that they soooo deserve and not be stamped like a market doll with "the next ~~~"
As for AnS, its really worrying to change the staff since aside from the fact that a lot of viewers have grown accustomed to the staff's ingenious screen side texts and crack segmets, the format of Arashi's new show is totally different from what they are accustomed and having an entirely new staff will prolong the adjustment period.
I just PRAY and WISH that Johnny's moves concerning Arashi will not be their downfall. Arashi's talent and sincerity when it comes to entertaining deserves Brilliant Decisions.
and i hope this writer realize it isnt Arashi's fault ( though i hope, arashi has at least some 'say' with regards to these kinds of changes)
no subject
Date: 2010-02-23 11:26 am (UTC)I believe that a tv show is a success because of the good work that are done by both the production team and the stars of that show. One simply cannot go without the other. That's why I am sorry that the current production team is not going to work with Arashi again in the new tv program, and I understand that some of them might feel abused by this decision.
However, I agree that Arashi cannot be blamed for this. They're not the ones who made the decision. They didn't have control over it either. So please don't direct the anger towards Arashi. Direct it to the people who made the decision instead.
And yes, I agree that people should stop comparing Arashi with SMAP. Arashi is Arashi, SMAP is SMAP.
(I love BOTH Arashi and SMAP by the way.. and I love them EQUALLY!)

Date: 2010-02-23 11:41 am (UTC)honestly, they should start living in the present.
though i feel bad for the AnS producer/scriptwriter/whoever he is. must be hard to let go of something you've been doing for the past decade. it's no wonder he's so bitter
no subject
Date: 2010-02-23 11:46 am (UTC)it would be easy for us to say that it's not right for him to write those things: arashi's slump, smap's glory days and changing the channel. but i think that when you're in that position, feeling the same overwhelming emotions, going through that situation, you probably might write the same things without thinking of the repurcussions of your actions. i'm not saying that what he said was right. but life's a bitch. shit happens. and so we move on. :D
no subject
Date: 2010-02-23 11:54 am (UTC)I always feel sad when smb compares Arashi with the other groups. Arashi is Arashi. There's no need to compare or to try to make Arashi do what their seniors did. Just let it be.
Hope they'll feel better soon.

Date: 2010-02-23 03:37 pm (UTC)that bit about the ANS writer is sad... and harsh...
personally, people should really stop comparing Arashi to SMAP. those two are two very different groups belonging to two very different eras... bottomline is, they are not the same. PLUS, i think Arashi NEVER targeted to be "the next whoever"... from what i have seen, Arashi only targeted to be Arashi, not a 2nd generation of someone else... and the never-ending comparison is like casting a dark shadow on everything both these groups had ever done to accomplish what they have now. the time has changed...
on another note, what does "cat type" mean? i can't really connect it to oguri shun, matsujun, or gackt...
thanks again... :)

Date: 2010-02-23 03:49 pm (UTC)The boys are just doing any job that's given to them, the pressure they must be feeling must be so hard when it comes to the ratings.
plus they will be leaving the staff and ogura san behind.
I would mourn for this show
Arashi gambare!

Date: 2010-02-23 04:26 pm (UTC)maybe if they want they should just try to search how many people actually DOWNLOAD Arashi shows online!? People watch more from the internet nowadays. And sometimes I really hate how the Johnny higher ups keep pushing them so much, and the TV personnel too.

Date: 2010-02-23 08:26 pm (UTC)Will Arashi ever be considered and respected on their own merit? Stop comparing them and putting them under SMAP's shadow.
Arashi has done so much and achieved so many thing in THEIR own name. Will the media open their eyes and see Arashi as Arashi but not the next SMAP?
had to de-lurk just because this frustrates me sooooooooo much.
no subject
Date: 2010-02-23 10:42 pm (UTC)I have to agree with the article and I don't blame that staff member at all. I have so much mixed feelings about the new TV show, but most of them are negative.
I really don't want to see AnS end, or even if it does I want the old staff to follow. I feel like that's the only show that can truly bring out the charms and essence of Arashi, one member at a time in such details. Only people that have been with them for all these years can do this.
I really really hope this new show won't ruin Arashi for me...
I totally agree with the article too, I mean, I do feel that Johnny's is really trying to push Arashi's popularity but they're not doing the right thing and its making the fans sad. :(
One at a time, they're taking away TV Shows that showcases Arashi's "un-idol-like charm" and they seem farther and farther away from the fans...
Plainly put, THIS FRIGGIN' SUCKS ASS.
