Hmmm....What's Mabo doing at the moment? Hehehe..mind me saying that it's just out of the blue.

I'm not sure if someone already mentioned this, but there's supposed to be a Nurseman special coming out. I'm not sure when though, gotta go look for that article again!

It already aired a week or two ago. I really don't like Nurseman though... even though it's one of his most successful, I think it's his worst drama to date...

You didn't care for it too? I usually enjoy Mabo's dramas, but I had a really hard time watching this one for some reason. If I remember correctly, wasn's Sakurai Sho from Arashi in the special too?

My sentiments exactly..... Prefer his older ones like Heaven Cannot Wait and the last one Manhattan Love Story (even though ratings were poor on this one).

Anyway, i might be a poor judge of "drama quality" cos i tend to really like the poorer rated ones these couple of seasons... for eg thought that Kanojo Ga Shinjatta was really good.

Confirm me girls..Is Mabo going to be in a Stage Play with one of the Arashi members? I forgot which one is it Aiba Masaki or Ohno Satoshi?

Yap, Mabo will be in TRUE WEST with Ohno. The play opens 23rd April.

Darn it! Another stage play that I can't see!

Maybe I gotta save some money so I can just go live in Japan already!

Damn! Me too..I want to see lots of stage plays where the lead actors are from the Johnny's.

The best is in the eyes of the beholder

Some of their more popular songs include

1) Ambitious Japan
2) Love You Only
3) Hanauta
4) Kanpai!
5) Message
6) Ding Dong

I really liked their latest single Transistor G Girl but it's not that popular.

Hitoribotchi no Haburashi is just Nagase.

Wow, I can't agree with you anymore!...haha I absolutely loved Heaven Cannot Wait (didn't really like the 2nd one though) and of course Manhattan remains as one of my favorites.

I really liked Kanojo Ga Shinjatta too...it's so weird how all the dramas I like don't get good ratings but the dramas I hate are at the top. Kisarazu Cats Eye is one of my favorites but it got bad ratings (but it did get popular after it aired ) I guess I like things that don't have mass appeal...haha

Shigeru Joshima..hehehehe..yes, he looks very young in that pic

I've mentioned my favorite songs of Tokio before...well the hell I will say it again:

- Oh! Heaven;
- Message;
- Green;
- Southend;
- Glider;
- Be ambitious

Whenever I hear Oh! Heaven the only thing I can think of is the ending of Tengoku ni Ichiban Chikai Otoko where everyone is dancing!
