Having only joined this boyband fandom a couple of months ago, I have had the privilege to watch/catch up on Arashi's how many years worth of videos, songs and shows particularly Himitsu no Arashi-chan. The show aired for 5 years (since 2008), and has finally come to its Finale.
This episode took place in the Sharehouse corner. Normally, a camera follows them from behind (which they have to pretend to not know about or something like that) after they walk out of the waiting room to the studio to shoot.Then here comes Aiba being his normal silly self minding the camera and saying his greetings in Korean. As usual, the members tell him off.
They each go out of their respective doors and find the now empty living room with 3 boxes on the floor.
Inside the boxes were significant memorabilia from their past episodes and the members spent the entire duration of the show reminiscing.
I was heavyhearted watching this final episode because HnA came to be one of my absolute favorites. I would have probably bawled if it wasn't for their occasional joking around. (I can so clearly recall them doing Janken over that feet smelling liquid for it to be placed under someone's nose. Unfortunately for Aiba who suggested it lost all the same and had to injure the gross stench).
Though not having bawled, I found my glassess fogging up as the episode was coming to a close.
After having taken their last ever photograph in Sharehouse,
the members left one by one, rendered their words of thanks and hung up their room keys.
Ohno, being Riida had the toughest job of packing up, turning off the lights and putting the show to a close.
This scene. *sheds tears right about here*
This show may have ended but I think that these guys will have more hopefully similar opportunities in the future and after all, it is Arashi's job to take the world by storm.
Looking on the brighter side, THERE IS THIS TO LOOK FORWARD TO!!!!
Time to wrap up this fangirl entry and hit the sacks real soon. I can say that yes, I am happy to have been sucked into this blackhole and addiction that is Arashi. Thank you so much for your awesomeness, boys! Til next time again!
