OMG! i had to catch up on so much!! i still need to do my PM and email replies and LJ posts!! ahhhhhhh.....XD

Arashic world map: certainly something positive and good to see for us fans. It'll really be cool if they are gonna tour at those spots on the map! at least if anything, Arashi is recognizing (and maybe old Johnny-san!) that World Tour is a goal they need to strive for!!!

and about nikkis... There;s only Jun's and Ohno's too from what I know... but Ohno didn't write anything yet!!! and Jun only one note (I think he even said somehing about his new hairstyle there...)

Thanks for the info! haha, Ohno not writing anything yet..why am i not surprised. i kinda have this feeling that he doesn't like blogging..i think he would rather spend his Sunday afternoons drawing or doing more art projects. or maybe Riida is not good at computers?? he has to ask the little Neener to teach him cuz i think Ohno's blog entries would be uber hilarious!! makes me think about Aiba Sugoroku..the game piece that Aiba made for Ohno one time..didn't it say IT something? was that a mocking of his computer skills???
thanks for the google link to Lady Oscar pics! Do S DOES look like Lady Oscar.....O_o"

thanks to ainangst, i bookmarked the link for Nino's translated Nikki! will have to find time to read it!

zaizaiaddict: thanks for the first press booklet pics!! i actually haven't seen them cuz i was saving it till i get my album next week! haha..but it's ok..they're such nice pics!! OMG, i really like what Ohno is wearing...
is it just me or they all seem to have this "sun-kissed" look?! LOL
thanks for the tip about MU! and don't worry about the Ohno Worst date..no need for apologies!! ^^

Did anyone listen to the sample of Aozora pedal yet? I listened to it, and I like it! ^^ It's not the best song ever, but I think it'll grow on me. There's this one short little Ohno solo part though, it sounds really really good *_* His voice just keeps getting better and better, I swear <3 Anyone have thoughts on it? Or are you all gonna wait till you get your copy in August? ;D (I'm such a wimp, I could never wait XD)

ahh..i haven't listened to Arashic OR Aozora Pedal! cuz i'm making myself wait..but at the same time it's been so hard to resist cuz minna have been talking about it and i can't really join in! *cries even more* i very much believe Ohno's voice is getting better and better..OMG, i think he's just getting more and more manly and attractive! ^3^

OMG, Oh-chan fell into the audience during an encore??? OH...now do i even WISH more to be there watching their concerts! Ohno, you can fall into my arms anytime!!! XDDD For a split second when i just read "Ohno fell off the stage..." i was starting to panic and think of it as an accident happening....hahaha...then i read the "into the audience"...*sigh of relief*

Arashi really does enjoy their concerts and enjoy the high tension ne!! i sometimes find that the things they do during the concerts are stuff that you would never have guess they would do normally...so it's definitely the high and adrenaline boost they are getting which is good! you just GOTTA have some fun!!

Welcome back pink dragon!

Mika-chan: OMG! that is so nice of your dad! Mika Oyaji is so COOL&SOUL! k, that was a bad attempt at using the concert name...LOL. i still have to wait till next week.......... i'm gonna reply to your PM TODAY..i PROMISE!!

aoi_tsuki: i think it would be so awesome to really know that oversea fans WERE the inspiration for their Arashic world map!

ano.... can somebody help me? I can't registrate to clubbox, because it hates Hungary... so could somebody registrate an account to clubbox for me, please? thank you~ Btw, listened Arashic and I think it's not that good ^^;;; Some song are really good, but why couldn't they paid more attention on the album....? But this is only my opinion....

wahwahwah
somebody actually gives a bad review on the album...
well for me I felt the same way at 1st hearing... must be because of Wish (coz i'm bored of that song ) & a lot of the songs have a repetative wording ryhthem (spell???) to it (Raise Your Hands, Ready To Fly... but loving it now!). I do I realize I can actually get bored listening to the whole album on replay (must be the repetative wording). After really listening to the tracks for the 2nd time, I totally love it! Especially COOL & SOUL, Carnival Night2, Love Parade, Chou Chou Arigato, Caramel Song, I Want Somebody & Tabidachi No Asa (almost the full album ) A lot of details were put into each an every song. You can hear them harmonize, the arrangement is great, the sound effects (eg: children laughter in Caramel Song), orchestra&bigband sound, plus the mature fresh sound of their music. They are afterall venturing to a more mature market & I'm loving their experimentation on their song choice.Overall its a good effort by THEM considering they were really busy when the album was being produced.

I know this is your opinion but to say that "they didn't paid much attention to their album" is really unfair. Maybe its not to your liking. Too bad. Your lost.
I LOVE Jin's voice but hate the wording for his solo Ha Ha Ha. The degrading words totally killed the funky melody.

yeah, i'm slightly bias (this is afterall an ARASHI thread right) and bitchy

Ru-chan well I think Ohjichan isn't bad with comps... in Hanamaru Cafe he was saying about his laptop and how he used the internet @_@
and after all they use their mobiles to write it (for me that's more difficult... hate writing on mobile). so... there's no excuse for him:P just his character:P

deleted, ppl haunted me down.

oh and,
TO zaizaiaddict: just bcoz i dont have arashi stuff (avatar/sig) and dont really like the new album then automatically i dont like them or what? then better if you know.... i love them....

ayumiii_chan I know that each person has their own opinion and all, but I just really don't like that way you said about the guys ::: "they didn't paid much attention to their album" I think that's just mean and not right !!! I think that what they did for their solo this year is new and refreshin', they're tryin' out new things and for me it's totally off the hook. Anyway, that's just my opinion ...

why are we talking about this? it's a bit of a waste of time isn't it? i mean, some ppl will like the new songs whereas some won't.. it's all a matter of taste.. and no one is forcing anyone else to like each and every single song or album.. each to his/her own..

i have to say tho that no one here feels obliged to like all arashi songs just cause we're fans and we definitely don't say so to the world.. we're not blindly being arashi fans..

pls be considerate when posting comments.. thnx

wow... that would be great!!!! Not only that... would be Arafantastic!!!!*making new words

My review from arashic is that i liked...
I get this feeling that is really retro... with differents kinds of rithms
I really really like Cho arigato ...carnival night2.. Love parade.. are the songs that i start to dance in the middle of the street
XD~ and of course kittodaijoubu too...

I just loved 'Cool and soul'... how different is this song!!! Very unic!
I liked 'read to fly' ... Riidas voice melt my heart..
and liked 'Raised your hands' too... *Picture myself at they show raising my hands!!!!

The only on that i didn't get into is 'i want somebody'...

Now.. I think that the differents songs and improves show some thoughts about...
'carnival night2' and 'love parade' had to have some thoughts about XD~

Konichiwa minna-san

i guess this month is full of arashi nee?

makino-chan!! yea it'd be arafantastic!! hahaha

especially since brazil is marked on their map!

to tell the truth, i liked all the songs.. they're all unique, it's something they've not attempted before.. cool & soul sounds very sho-ish.. the way the rap and most of the song is done.. very unique!

and i really love tabidachi no asa and silver ring as well..

i think it's really cool how in this album, everyone really got to participate.. even aiba n jun n nino got to do a fair bit of singing as well.. whereas before it was really a lot of ohno singing n sho rapping..
