[ichnelle.livejournal.com]

hi arashians, i'll be in Japan from August 3 to 8, so maybe this is a lame request but if any of you can help along the way since i can't read japanese and so and i would love if can meet any arashian there :D


ps: can foreigners like me come and watch Arashi tv shows directly? if so anyone knows how to do it? it would be like dreams come true if i can see them goofing around each other for real XD

How cool, have fun! ^^ Wish I could go to Japan too!


Arashi TV shows are done by lottery within the official fan club, and it's super tough even for them, and I believe they are extremely strict with checking ID, etc. (more so than at concerts), so unfortunately I don't think you'd be able to attend a taping. :(

oh, that's the system.. okay then i just have to pray for miracles that when i am there, they will miraculously pop out of nowhere in front of me :D

oh but maybe there will be concert that i can attend to, maybe.. oh well lets hope there will be XD

I'm in Japan, we can meet :) ( if you'll be coming to Tokyo, that is ).

Going to an Arashi show has nothing to do with being foreign or not, but unfortunately you have to be in the fanclub to apply for their shows. And the chances to win are not so high. I've been applying for 6 months and still no luck *sigh*

hurray! lets meet up! i will be in tokyo before going to kyoto or osaka.. but i dunno what me and friend are going to do yet... do you mind to be my guide, my friend might want to go to some places i don't have any interest to so we maybe split up in the way XDDD


aaah, so do you know if maybe i can register to arashi's fanclub? :D
waaaah i believe you will be lucky, it must be really fun to see them for real, goofing around each others and homg just imagining i can see aiba in flesh makes my heart beat faster XDDDDD

I am also in tokyo ;D

well about register to JFC, yes you can but you need to pay yearly fee, for the first time member is 5,000yen and someone to apply for you.

is this your first time travelling in japan?

[ichnelle.livejournal.com]

lets meet up then! :D
5,000 yen? wow that's quite a lot of money ;___;
so i need someone to apply for me? like a registered-member have to recommend me before i can join? heee...

yes, it will mark the first time i ever set my feet on japan's ground and i am too excited even though the trip is still 5 months away XDDD

[darkhriss.livejournal.com]

After you register to the fanclub it takes a month for you application to be processed :(

Anyway, can't wait to meet! Tell me before you come ok?

[ichnelle.livejournal.com]

ah sou ne.. maa, maybe i will be able to register in the near future , trhank you for the info, oh and do i need to register in japanese? do they have web-register for this? :D


yes, can't wait to meet! do you mind if i add you to my f-list? :D

[darkhriss.livejournal.com]

Yes, it's in japanese. You either need to go to fanclub's office in Shibuya or go to a post office and fill a money transfer order. The second one is a bit harder. I joined at the office because they have pre-made papers with all the things that you have to fill in.

And yep, you can add me :)

[ichnelle.livejournal.com]

it's a bit difficult huh D;
have to learn japanese then :D

added you, thank you ^^

[darkhriss.livejournal.com]

You can just go with someone that knows. The real problem is that you have to live in Japan to join...

[ichnelle.livejournal.com]

aw then i can't do it in the near future :(

[iylover.livejournal.com]

your only going for 5 days but are going Tokyo AND Osaka? daaaaaang. That is one intense schedule. I hope you can fit everything in! :) I was in Osaka and Kyoto for 5 days and that was not enough time to see everything :(

[iylover.livejournal.com]

P.S you really don't have to know how to read Japanese in order to get around. Don't worry. :)

[ichnelle.livejournal.com]

really? i am scared i will get lost and i won't know how to explain myself and get my way around.. but since you say so i feel a bit relieved :D

[ichnelle.livejournal.com]

yes, it is one intense trip XD


i plan to not sleep at all once i am there, just blinking my eyes would be such a waste of time XDDD (sorry i sound crazy XD)

thank you! i believe i will have a great time XD

[ichnelle.livejournal.com]

oooh, i have a question (well questions actually but i am quite incoherent right now XD) do you have any recommended place i have to visit when i am in tokyo, kyoto or osaka? place where i shouldn't have missed at all, i am quite clueless and haven't plan the detail yet XD

[iylover.livejournal.com]

I loved Kyoto. Love love loved <3 Golden Temple, definitely go to. I would say try to see as many shrines and temples as you can :) Osaka-jo was amazingly cool as well :)
Have a blast, I miss Japan so much that I cannot wait to go back :)

[ichnelle.livejournal.com]

wooh, golden temple then! shrines! me and my friends plan to visit as many of them as possible :)))
any recommended food to try? :D

i hope you can visit japan again! :D
