da iirc I think they talked during 17 album promo about how they weren't really close in the past despite looking like it on camera but they are getting really close in the recent years
Wait, you think Arashi are closer than TakkiTsuba? No way. TakkiTsuba like to make comments like they're not close but their body language and the way the banter if you listen to them MC, totally gives away how close they really are. They may not spend as much time together as they used to but they are still SUPER close. Its like how my best friend and I have lived on opposite side of the planet for three years now, so we never spend time together much anymore, but we are still really really close. When we talk its like no time has passed. Thats the kind of closeness TakkiTsuba have, really deep closeness.
Is this person JOKING!? They used the term Member ai but ignored NEWS? I know that 6nin NEWS was more of an illusion of closeness than actual closeness but 4nin NEWS are definitely the closest Johnny's group.
I think a "ranking" of groups' closeness makes no sense because every group has their own particular dynamics and their own kind of "kizuna". You'll find groups like kanjani where members hang out together a lot, others like smap with only some members who are friends in private but who proved that they could fight the whole world to defend one of the members when shit happened, others like kinki with members who never meet outside of work but who are amazingly synchronized and can understand each other perfectly without words, etc. They're not more or less close, just different.
Since closeness and member ai and stuff gets talked about as one of their selling points all the time, I think it makes a lot of sense for any type of fan to think about it. Although, I agree with above commenter that rankings of closeness don't always work well since each group has their own dynamic totally different from other groups.
I have always thought this though I think Arashi isn't close at all. I doubt any of the groups are as close as they seem. We always forget that they are just coworkers really. Are you bff's with your coworkers?
it's true they're coworkers, but because of the J&A system most guys from the same group/generation have known each other since they were kids or teenagers when they were too young to draw the line between personal and professional relationships. The older ones even lived together in the same dorms/houses. So we can't really say they're like your usual office coworkers. Not saying they're all close or BFF's though.
That's very true. And its hard not to be a little close with someone you've basically grown up with, and have been through a lot of shit together. Being a Junior seems difficult and you'd naturally develop a bond with the guys who went through it with you, even if they're not nessicarily the friends you hang out with all the time.
Why is this a secret? I'm an old Arashi fan who should no longer think about member ai, kizuna or what not.
