So...this is my first entry after my intro. What should I start with? How about how I found Arashi? Well, I messaged Sana a while ago asking her about manga and anime. In college, I had taken a Japanese literature course randomly (which had nothing to do with my Biology degree but I had a scholarship so I was like hey what the heck, it's free anyway). The professor was awesome. She was this tiny old Japanese lady that had married this white guy who also happened to be a history professor at my school. It was cute...Cook and Cook. Their offices were right across from each other. Anyway, she made it really interesting. I mean we took the normal Tale of Genji and all that other stuff. But she had us watch Japanese movies too and anime and stuff. We didn't quite read manga but she talked about it. I always thought I'd try to figure out what the hype about manga and anime was about but then I graduated and normal life problems pushed it all right out of my mind.
So anyway, about a year after that class, I message Sana asking her about what manga was and she sends me a list of Japanese drama and manga that she loved best. She was so excited...and I was kind of overwhelmed. Like what is this? I'm not sure why now, but I opened the drama list first. And Nobuta Wo Produce was the first one on the list and the first one that I watched. At first I was like what is this? I don't even watch normal TV and I'm going to watch Japanese drama? Hmmm...don't hurt Sana's feelings, just watch an episode. Haha. I finished the whole drama in what? Three days, Sana? Hehe I fell in love with Yamapi and Kame right then and there.
My interest kind of sped up after that. Kind of like a snowball rolling down a hill and getting bigger and faster. What was it after that? Oh yeah, Ryusei no Kizuna. My first meeting with Ninomiya Kazunari. If only I knew how fateful that meeting was. (lol) Sana mentioned something about Arashi at that point because I loved the theme song so much. It gave me chills. But names were still unfamiliar to me. Keeping character's names straight was hard enough because the names are so unfamiliar sounding and so adding the actor's names in was impossible. And I don't think I was able to figure out why the actors were also singing.
Hotaru no Hikari 1 and 2. Lunch Queen. And then...dum dum dum...Hana Yori Dango. Sana absolutely forbade me to watch it. She's like NO. You aren't ready for that. Hehehe I think she wanted to keep the best for last or something like that. But I'd read so much about it in different forums and I couldn't help it. I was so tempted. One night, I guiltily finished the whole thing. THE WHOLE THING in one night!!!! I started around 3 or 4 p.m. that day and I stayed up all night watching it. I had the worst headache when I went to sleep around 5 or 6 a.m. But it was so worth it. Then Hana Yori Dango 2 in the following three nights. And Hana Yori Dango Final the night after that. They were like my most tense nights that I've ever had, besides the nights that I was going through a botched up engagement lol. The whole time I was thinking: Omg omg omg what's going to happen? Ahhhhhhhhh!!!!
And so I met Domyouji Tsukasa aka Matsumoto Jun.
