Goods for KAT-TUN's 15th Anniversary Live went on sale today. If you're in the fan club, you can join the lottery to watch their concert in person which will be held from March. If you can't watch in person or are not in the fan club, you can watch their
online concert on March 22nd, Monday, which is also their debut date. This is a live concert with audience which will also be streamed online for fans that are unable to make it. It starts from 18:00 onwards Japan time. As of now tickets are not on sale yet, but do consider watching if you are able to to show your support.
If you are unable to watch the online concert but want to show your support, a short version of KAT-TUN's PV for their new single Roar was uploaded on
J-Storm's Youtube last night. Please check it out and add some views to encourage Johnny's to keep doing this and strengthen their online presence. I've never seen Nakamaru wear earrings before! Also, check out some
fanprojects you can join.

Now to the main topic. KAT-TUN's goods were trending yesterday because they released a
wineglass which reminded people of Kame's drama, Kami no Shizuku. It's perfect for viewing parties and crying while watching the concert lol. Today they were trending because the
penlight is!in!6!colors!!!!!! One hyphen interpreted the penlight
here as:
Top view: Triangle - represents the current three members
Side view: Rectangle - represents the hyphens
When lit up: Pink, Red, Orange, Yellow, Blue, Purple - represents the 6 member colors
I had to add it to my cart immediately when I saw it on Twitter even if I already finished buying my goods cause I wanted it to come in time for the concert, which means a separate shipping fee (Johnny's FAQ states that even if 2 orders were made on the same day, separate orders are separate shipping fees). It was worth it for the nostalgia, and it was half the price of Arafes's penlight (just saying). They also had
masks which were subtle enough for everyday use and reminded me of Nakamaru's Tanoshii Jikan
masks.
I know I keep saying Nakamaru is my new KAT-TUN ichiban, but I've been loving Kame's visuals recently. I haven't seen his drama yet but ever since that drama he's been looking extra good every time. Which is why I couldn't resist ordering
his photoset. Every shot was extremely cute even if I never knew what to do with those things. I also got the uchiwas cause they were really really really cute! They were posing while signing 1 and 5 on their hands for their 15th anniversary, but fans on
Twitter made me realize this also means 6 aka 6nin!
Kame was wearing glasses and
Nakamaru ended his streak of not changing poses for uchiwa shoots. I was debating whether to get the
pamphlet or not, but got it anyway cause it's the 15th anniversary and figured there must be some gems there and maybe they could look back a little bit. Also because getting the Arafes pamphlet last minute was so worth it.
They also had group and individual
posters,
clearfiles and
photosets, among other goods. Do check it out! In addition, someone found that the
logo for the tour and all the goods also contains all the member colors as subtle lines between U & N. They are killing us with all the
6nin references! This makes me hope they make an appearance on the online concert or at least watch. But this is probably wishful thinking.
Many services will ship the goods to your home country if you do not have a Japanese address. They will also pack the goods together for cheaper international shipping upon request, if you've made separate orders.
In other news, the
coupling songs for the Roar single were revealed. I want them to release all the songs they sang when they were juniors, but only
3 songs made it.
