I really hope they do one too... :|
I've read on the internet that their popularity is going down.... because the ratings for "change" arent that good....is that true..?

:mecry:

that happens all the time.
If the rating is good people say good things, and when it's not people say that their popularity is going down :grumble: :grumble: :grumble:

I heard that they will have a concert after The Olympics ends. I hope it's true, otherwise it's going to be a boring year again if they don't release a concert DVD :fingerscrossed:

btw, anyone here lives in Bangkok?
Heard it from a friend that Takuya will be in Siam Paragon on June 21. I haven't got the official news about this though.

LOL. yuummmm :P

so, if its after the Olympics, it would perhaps be a winter concert? They haven't done that since "Drink Smap!" if my memory is correct...

CHANGE is doing OK for a Kimura dorama, but definitely high compared to others. Ryoteki na Kanojo on the other had is doing very badly (at least in Kanto area), it's the lowest-rated dorama this season and the only dorama that gets lower rating than RnK is Muri na Renai.

This morning on "Mezamashi TV" they showed a scene of Nakai and Nakama Yukie's crank up for "watashi wa kai ni naritai" and when the director gave nakai a clam, nakai said "so this is what i want to be?" [ because the title of the movie is " i want to be a clam" ]

i thought that was funny. and i must admit, he looked pretty cute with his bald hair style :)

Even though, Kimura's drama rating not that very compare with gokusen, hmm but this doesn't mean smap's popularity drop. Remember kimura's look from CHANGE. Now, i saw many japanese magazine..many people (including his juniors) are following this style, curly their hair and wear 70's spec. so far, i saw Ryo and Subaru from k8 and Yamapi form news did follow tis fashion tread. Impressing~~ :woot:

Actually, CHANGE lost out to Gokusen 3 (and last week to Last Friends) ONLY in Tokyo. It seems like in other parts of the country, CHANGE is doing very well, even reaching 29% at one point! :woot: I've always hated it how Japan's TV rating only focused on Tokyo and left out other places *sigh*

And about the hair thing, I thought that OdaJoe started it? :hehe:

well..most of the tvmagazine published from Tokyo, of coz they only took the result from TOkyo 's part.
I think the geek look was started from American's movie 'Napoleon Dynamite'.. :woot:
when kimura got the hair too, now many junior following too.. :applaud:

I heard that it's written by a fan so it's not an official photo book, but it's still so worth it though.
It's already out of print on CDjapan but the last time I checked HMV, it's still available for pre orders.
