Show Notes:

INTRODUCTION
  ■ Ryo's sweater shows his affection, from TV Guide with Nino and Ryo
  ▪ Ryuusei no Ki- no wait, Meteor Bonds! We're spiteful little children. :D
  ▪ Warning: we curse. But Ryo started it first!
  ▪ "Well, Ryo smiles for JEP Cast, because we are talking about him today." "..." "LONG PAUSE."

JE NEWS (5:24)

SMAP
  ■ Shingo in "Kurobe no Taiyou" adaptation
  ▪ Did the lead actor from the original movie "make" them not show it except in theaters? o.O

TOKIO/Kinki Kids/KAT-TUN
  ■ Hey!Hey!Hey! SP, Sept 8 - TOKIO VTR, Kinki Kids and KAT-TUN unaired clips
  ▪ We highly recommend you check out TOKIO and V6's Bowling Tournament on Hey!Hey!Hey!. (HYSTERICAL.)
  ▪ Kame said an explicit word, and then everyone catches the "fever" and repeats it over and over again.

TOKIO
  ■ Music Station, Sept 12
  ▪ Nagase isn't very impressed with Avril Lavigne. Taichi bounces along though. *gasps*
  ▪ THEY PERFORM ON FREAKING RUGS. What is up with that?!

V6
  ■ New variety show, Levels of New Knowledge "Kumagusu"
  ▪ MOST IMPORTANT PART, Peyton tells me I did a good job in pronunciation. *PREENS*
  ▪ V6 gets pushed back to the midnight spot after being in such a prominent position - kinda sad, isn't it? :///
  ▪ Will this be a quiz show?! :DDDD That'd be fun. We theorize.
  ■ Light In Your Heart PV
  ▪ ULTRAMAN!!!! The most important point. :D
  ■ Utaban, Sept 11, Music Station, Sept 12
  ▪ Spangles, fringe, tassels - WHATEVER THEY ARE, they're horrible. We say it now, these are worse than even the skirts. HANDS DOWN.
  ▪ "Kami likes it when they jerk their bodies." ~_~;;
  ▪ "He (Yamaguchi) got most of JE of the younger groups into it (surfing). Pi. Kame." "...." "Stopping, okay."

Arashi
  ■ Ousama no Brunch, Sept 6
  ▪ We laugh about Aiba slipping in their concert during "Kitto Daijoubu." The irony. XP

NewS
  ■ Happy Birthday PV
  ▪ Peyton is the only one who really liked the PV, the other two hosts are not so enthused - although we still have parts we like, so not all negative.
  ▪ Does NewS just have a trend in their PVs? Jennie thinks this one is lacking in terms of this trend.
  ■ Winter Concert Tour Dates with "Leader" Koyama
  ▪ Peyton is HELLA excited because she timed her vacation perfectly in time with NewS' tour for Fukuoka and Tokyo Dome.
  ■ Code Blue Special Airing 2009
  ▪ Yamapi kinda blows the secret early by telling everyone following his j-web that he's filming the day before the finale. >.>

Kanjani8
  ■ New variety show, Kanjani8 can rescue the world
  ▪ Jennie giggles first and foremost because I have to say the very, very long title - kanjani8's grand plan to rescue the world CAN-jani ~ they will make it happen.
  ▪ And then we get some bitter fangirling in there. XPPPP We do congratulate them on having another show~

Johnny's Junior
  ■ Nakayama undergoes surgery
  ▪ ...Jennie makes a joke that goes over our heads. lol
  ▪ He bounces back and makes it back to the concert in time to make an appearance, in a wheelchair.

DRAMA TALK (38:51)
  ■ Sushi Ouji Episodes 1-4
  ▪ Jennie and Kami talk about their opinions on this drama - our first times ever seeing it, Jennie enjoyed it.... Kami, not so much. She even compares it to Teppan Shoujo Akane. :///
  ▪ "...he exchanges eyes with the fish..." "No, he didn't actually exchange eyes with the fish." "Fish's eye is as big as his head."
  ▪ Peyton points out some of the important translation errors.
  ▪ We talk a bit on languages - first on the German which we ask Jennie's opinion on, and then on the different Japanese dialects. Which kinda leads into us wondering if their accents are heavy for a reason.
  ▪ "What happened to Maru when he had to hold her hand? And then keysmash lolol."
  ▪ "The eggs are alive" - Doesn't exactly have the same effect on the drama characters as it does to us. As does a lot of the food descriptions in this drama. Ew.
  ■ For next week, Sushi Ouji Episodes 5-8! :D

LETTER SEGMENT (1:05:32)
  ■ This week's question: What do you like or dislike about Kato Shigeaki?
  ▪ Listener responses from devilayu and jliann! We love you guys for all the amazing responses~
  ▪ Then the hosts respond - Kami used to mix up Shige and Kusano at the beginning, Peyton apparently has a "sordid" history with Shige, then rants a bit about Shige's acting, and Jennie may be giving Shige a little too much credit. (KIDDING, KIDDING. lol)
  ■ Next week's question: How did you get into Johnny's Entertainment?
  ▪ The hosts have already answered this question, but this time, we'd like to hear your stories! :D Please let us know how you entered this awesome fandom we're in. We'd love to hear all about it.
  ■ We're calling out for letter segment questions! Is there anything you want us to talk about, or hell, ignore us. What do you want to talk about? :D

CLOSING (1:16:54)
  ■ Kami's Batsu Game - Bokura no Machi de T.T
  ▪ Before that, we give the batsu point tallies! Because really, we're starting to blank and forget ourselves. Since I performed my batsu game in this episode, that restarts my points back to 0, Rhey has 3 points (the only who has yet to perform a batsu game), Jennie has 3, and Peyton has 1. :D
  ▪ Then, you get to hear my fail!singing! ...Fun.
