Smappies

speaking of smapxsmap, i forgot to mention i watched the ijime episode a couple days ago... it was so hard to watch. i couldn't help but getting teary eyed. I'm lucky enough despite having tons of things to get teased about, it never happened to me. But it infuriates me when other people get made fun of. and the thing is in japan, it's completely different from what people in the states would consider bullying or teasing. In Japan, the level of bullying doesn't involve one other person or even a couple of people beating someone up. It can involve a whole class against one person and not even physical brutality, but more emotional and mental brutality. It can be anywhere from ignoring the person even exists, writing horrible messages like "die!" and other such messages on their desk, and just doing awful things like that everyday.

to me, psychological/emotional abuse can be alot worse than physical abuse.

this might not sound that bad... but honestly put yourself in that situation where everyday you have to go back to a place where no one acknowledges you exist, and those who do only say the worst possible things for you. I don't care how strong a person can be, that can be very traumatizing to almost anyone over a period of time

Yeah, I can send them your way. I just got another HUGE shipment of magazine clips/articles so for a lot of those pics I have like 3 or 4 of the same thing. It'll be pretty easy to ship from CA to Washington, too. You wouldn't happen to have any older (pre-2000) non SxS SMAP tv show appearances would you?

yep! Not to mention Innocchi was in smap gakuen or whatever it was called. I'll have to look it up again. I do remember smap talking on utaban a very long time ago saying that once it gets below v6, they have a hard time remembering all of their kouhai. however, i think i remember takuya actually does somewhat keep track of all of them. I could be wrong because this interview was from years ago. But yeah, smap definitely knows the v6 members, tokio members, and kinki kids. They've all worked together during more than one occassion.

SMAP gakuen? Is that when SMAP had about a dozen members for a short while in the 80's?

While i'm rerecording them onto dvds, i'll make you copies too but the one i can promise for sure is the ai love smap tape i have :hehe: it's a cute show. the tape i have are shows from 1995-1996 i believe. I also have an ai love smap 1996 new years special somehwere, some yume ga mori mori, 1994 kakushigei taikai but yeah... once again i have to find them :sweat: i'm on a quest on finding all my old tapes so i can tape them over to dvd so yeah... right now i have that. I do also have just ONE episode of abunai shonen III somewhere(soooooooooo funny to watch!)

but yeah... i do have to apologize for the not so great quality again of the tape, but i'll make you a copy if you'd like it.

well, they weren't in smap. they were smap's backup dancers. the list includes like tokio members(the younger 3 members), sakamoto and innocchi from v6, and tons of jrs.

Whoa, no way! I didn't think anyone actually had those. Yes, please make me a copy of anything you can find. :mrgreen:

Another long shot but do you have SMAP appearances from Tokyo Friend Park or Magical Zunou Power? I know for sure that SMAP was on TFP around 1995 and I remember a friend mentioning that SMAP was on Magical Zunou Power in the early 90's before 20th/Coming Century appeared...but I could be confusing it with another game show.

haha, i actually do! I LOVED magical zunou power so much! I recently found one tape of it, but i think it's all tokio episodes. and yes you're right about magical. Basically for a long time, it was smap and tokio, and then it sort of changed to sometimes tokio to mostly v6 being on. Once again, I have tapes of them on it somewhere, i just have to find it. i honestly probably have over 500+ tapes if not more of japanese entertainment related stuff... so alot of it might have gotten put into our shed and storage.... so as I said i'm on a quest to find them all lol... :sweat: i'll do my best to find everything because i want to see all this stuff again!

Oh!! I miss <<Ai Love SMAP>>,, thatz the first show I watch,, from the 1st episode until it ends,,, but now I totally forgot the details oredi,, just remembered there are baseball skitz and their "HOME" is at a coffee shop,, :nut:

That's from right before there debut though. I'm positive I've seen a picture of a group of boys with the 6 SMAP members wearing identical SMAP sweatshirts. Maybe around 1988? I guess it could've been a temporary thing Johnny's put together in between Skateboys and the official SMAP line up.

I do remember some member almost being in smap... i think it was actually innocchi but i can't remember for sure. i know for a fact that smap was created in 1988 though, the b&w pic i have of them is from when they first came out in 1988 and it was the 6. But i'm sure they were other johnnys kids definitely possibly grouped together as possible smap members. skateboys was like 12 members, including all 6 of smap and even kokbun taichi from tokio. lol maybe they were experimenting with who they wanted in smap

Oh my god! My sister and I freaking loved Magical Zunou Power but I think we caught it right before it ended because we only saw V6 and Tokio. Years ago we borrowed a bunch of them from a family friend and our dad returned them before we got to tape them. All I have now is one really messed up VHS with a few episodes on it. SMAP or no SMAP if you can find all your Magical tapes please copy them for me :bow: :bow: :bow:

the special was to celebrate 20 years since music station started. the countdown featured 200 songs(100 from each decade) of the most requested songs from each decade. I believe the votes were not over the last 20 years, but they asked fans before that special aired what their favorite songs were for each of those decades. It was a great special.

So the performances you saw were the most requested songs/performances over those 2 decades. Each decade had different #1s though. Smap was in both of the decades quite a bit :woot:

Ah I see. Thanks for the explanation! So it was according to viewers votes, no wonder some placings were questionable!

lol yeah... if it was based on record sales... there would have been ALOT of questions.

i found tat, the jrs famous too early..the moment they debut as a new johnnys group, many problems come out. Eg, News and Kattun :sweat:

Yup, especially NEWS more than KT...The gap between the most senior in NEWS (Yamapi) and the most junior (Tegoshi) is too big! At least Koki from KT waited 9 years to debut...Kanjani8 members (not including Uchi) waited longer (other NEWS members passed them). To quote the Kansai Big Three's words: "We have to watch our juniors pass us one after another..." :grumble:

Ohayo minna san! Ohha! :dancing:

Very hard la to online, network problem :sweat:

I can imagine Goro doing alot of things and not telling Miho.

Goro date other girl in order to maintain his "playboy" status :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

At least I know that there's also a K8 fan here like me who thinks that Hina is good looking. His solo in 2005 concert was great. Don't mind about his teeth, but Hina has pretty eyes. Put him beside Nakai in a show, he'll fight with Nakai to talk more, don't mind his kansai-ben. I've been wondering why Kanjani8 haven't been to Utaban to promote their single? I want to see them with with Nakai, it's going to be so hilarious! Sometimes I feel bad for the K8 members, especially Yassu, they always get abused by Hina's tsukomi. So basically I think Hina and Yoko are the type that bully the others... The similarity between Shingo of Smap and Shingo of K8 is they both love football. if you think when Nakai talks about baseball in his radio that it gets very boring, Hina did the same thing talking so much about football.

Last time my friend told me that Hina looks a bit like Takuya. I think it's quite impossible. But this Takuya pic in Sample concert, I almost mistaken him as Hina!!!

Ryo-chan... Fans know that he's the Sexy Osaka man, very true. In Johnny's he has the poison tongue. He's kind of mean sometimes, but I think he's really gentle inside. 1 litre of Tears change my opinion of him a lot!!!! Nakai has said that he's really kakkoi in Iitomo and his personality is quite something....
Ya, he bullies other in NEWS(Shige, Koyama, etc) and he was so protective of Tegoshi. Tegoshi was spoilt by NEWS members, so he's kind like Shingo in Smap, the baby type.

Most photogenic in K8? Uchi and Ryo. Definitely Uchi, I want him back!!! :shamefulcry:

Most photogenic in Smap? I think Takuya and Goro!

Hina's handsome but he doesn't look it, but he's definitely most photogenic in K8, and I personally think that Yassu is much more photogenic than Ryo, because Ryo DOES take bad pictures but Yassu has always been so cute!

Yup, K8 in Utaban is still a dream not coming true for me! More than 2 years after debuting, never an Utaban appearance (let alone a Music Station Super Live appearance!). Watched how they kind of 'make fun' during one Mecha2x Iketeru SP in 2005, and I love Nakai-kun to death but that was hilarious! Trust K8 to be really poisonous with words and damn witty, even Nakai didn't know how to respond to that. Sasuga Kansai-jin! :rofl: Well, popularity factor may have been one of the reasons why they never appear on Utaban...the agency focuses too much on NEWS and KT and 'abandon' their Kansai boys. They need 2 years after debuting to be where they are now, looks almost like the road SMAP took years ago already...

Minna san, yesterday I go out with my friends to KLCC to survey for Snap no Shingo photobook. And then I read some of bad news about Takuya that almost makes me yelling in Kinokuniya.

TAKUYA - SHIZUKA : DIVORCE IN THE AIR

How can this happen????? You can read it guys, in HOT magazine, issue 65 Januari edition

I capture some of the news with my handphone, so the quality is not very good, but as long as you all can see it with your own eyes :shocked:
