Himitsu no Arashi-chan posters & secrets
Mar. 20th, 2008 01:54 pmSome of you probably already know about this, but as a part of promotion for their new show, Himitsu no Arashi-chan, posters are going up in certain areas in Tokyo.
There are two versions: one regular one of the upper half of their bodies:

And then another one of the other half:

Here's a full shot of what the two posters look like when placed together:

Now, there's something special going on with ones with the bottom half-- the flys in front of their jeans? You can actually unzip them one by one and read "secrets" from each guy that are hidden behind them.
Don't believe me?


(You can also watch a news clip - and a live demonstration - of the posters here.)
So after reading all that, you're probably wondering what the "secrets" say, right? I've translated them so you don't have to be in Japan (and know Japanese!) to see for yourself. :D
Ninomiya Kazunari
To be honest, lately, I've been using a vinyl bag.
Aiba Masaki
The number of times I've mistaken my TV remote for my cellphone and taken it out with me: four times.
Sakurai Sho
I don't know how to tie my own necktie.
Matsumoto Jun
In actuality, my fly is unzipped pretty often too.
Ohno Satoshi
To be honest, even now I'm still afraid of Nostradamus' prophecy. [T/N: I'm assuming he means the one about the world ending in 2012.]
Hope you all enjoyed that. :3 Have a nice Easter weekend!

Date: 2008-03-20 07:40 pm (UTC)you know, i've accidentally tried to answer my remote/change the channel with the phone before, so i can kinda understand why aiba would make a mistake like that :(

Aiba's and Ohno's are both strangely fitting for them. And Nino's is kind of confusing - just as usual. The only one that had me a bit surprised was Jun...XD
Thank you very much for the translation! ^____^

Reminds me of the recording session of Fight Song, a few seconds of which are in the PV. SERIOUSLY, SHO-CHAN! He's either a smart rapper who wears suits, or a newscaster who dresses Gansta-style or even sometimes has the "Nipple-Hole-Shirt" look.

TO AIBA: LOL. Just what does your remote look like? XD
TO OHNO: he's seriously paranoid. XD;
TO NINO: I don't get it. ;_;

Date: 2008-03-22 01:44 am (UTC)Aiba's secret is just so baka and adorable. Maybe his phone is as big as his remote control. hehe
I can somehow understand Ohno's secret. I was afraid of that too when I first heard it.
Nino. Although I totally love him, what's that secret all about? XD
Sho, soooo adorable. It's funny to find out that he doesn't know how to tie his own necktie when he's wearing it for News ZERO every now and then
Jun... haha. Jun... now words. But I wonder why I haven't seen that yet. hehe
