August 2019, somehow one of Arashi's clip was on my IG's explore page. I was into Japanese seiyuus back then. It was a clip of VS Arashi (I forgot the ep.) where MJ was on the GoGo Sweeper cart and Ohno said "Matsujun nanka kawaiine."
I mean, MJ is indeed super cute here.
I really liked his voice there (I suspect I have some degree of voice fetish). I didn't know whose voice was that back then. So, I started to look (stalk/investigate/intensely searching) for Arashi-related posts on IG. I needed to find out whose voice was it.
The more I searched, the more I like their flow of "boke-tsukkomi comedy" esp. Ohno's deadpan & hengao (weird faces) delivery during any of their variety programs.
THIS FACE! THAT SENTENCE DELIVERY! 🤣🤣🤣💙💙💙
I'm not into their songs at first, but I'm already hooked on Ohno's voice, both speaking and singing, so it's easy for me to like their songs now. Although, I must admit there's only a bunch of songs that I could listen from start to end, because I was searching for Ohno's solo compilation videos at first, so mostly I only like that part of the song 😅. I still need a lot to learn 🙇♀️🙇♀️🙇♀️
This post is getting too long and nobody cares how I got into Arashi. I just want to get it out there. I'll end this post here.
Note: I'm hesitant to put the screenshots because those clips aren't mine. I might take them down, I'm not sure..
