Repost from Tumblr: All Arashi fans are NOT lunatics. don't clump us together in that catagory.
i was on FB and i found some good news that this “candy” person was arrested on fraud trying to claim arashi and even tried to set up a “Talent company” where she would be CEO of and was demanding people for money, passports and sending out threats. she even offered “contracts” trying to get other artist to supposedly sign with her. she was also the reason why Sora_Takaku community on LJ closed down. well yes, she was arrested and i was reading comments under the link and one of the comments said this.
EXCUSE ME?!? ARE YOU FREAKEN KIDDING?
1. Japanese boy bands are NOT bad influence. have you listened to Arashi’s songs? they are some of the most beautiful songs ever written and you say they are a bad influence? open your eyes and smell the coffee! because the truth is in front of you.
2. REALLY?? LOONS?? we other fans are NOT loons like her. we other fans are helping to protect our beloved idols from people like HER! DO NOT clump or assume that all Arashi fans are like her.
i can say for myself that there are SOME crazy (in a bad connotative sense) ones out there, but most of the time, the fans i meet are the good supportive ones who only want good, moral, logical intentions, and i know most people will agree with me.
I fully agree with this comment. It’s true that things like these Arashi doesn’t know about, but then again remember at this age of technology and with internet, things are able to go around fast and at times it may and will lead to that actual artist themselves without you even knowing it! we must be careful about what we say or put online because this very incident can happen and as a friend of mine always said (i’m pretty sure you heard this many times) safety first; especially those who are fans of Arashi.
The reason why some people went bananas over this situation, because think of how big of an incident this would be if Candy had her way. JE is already demanding Arashi pv’s and videos to be off of youtube. if she was allowed to continue with this act, who knows what will be taken away from us fans next. not only to mention that the ban of JE artists photos on their website was just lifted a few days ago.
All in all, i can say i’m glad that this person was arrested. Her intentions were hurtful, illogical, and stupid; so much to that extent that i feel sorry for her.
Note: all names are removed from the comments provided. and i also wanted to reply to these comments, but seeing as i don’t like flamewars, i decided to reply on here (tumblr). ^^
Edit: Additional info: from a question asked on my tumblr and this is my answer.
she was arrested for two 5th degree theft and one 3rd degree theft.read here she was arrested recently, so it may take a while before information on her case shows up.
as for the fraud, there is no such thing as the Sora Takaku Arashi international agency or hotels as she claims…Sora Takaku was not only an arashi song, but a community journal on LJ. She claims to know arashi “personally”, she is offering contracts and conning people to join her group here and all of the things do not make sense. if you look through my tumblr, there are several posts i made from others about this situation. here is another source i have found. here
Many have looked at her postings and have found her crazy. Then again, this is all from me snooping around. i hope you find what you are looking for.
- “I knew those Japanese boy bands were a bad influence”
- “Yep- they might be as loony as she is. Kinda easy to see how she went that way too dealing with all that nonsense.”

- no one can blame arashi easily!!!arashi don’t know anything!they just giving as entertainment and fans are the one who are responsible in how we will use it. Try to imagine… What if one of them know this thinking of Candy? do you think they will just let it? Arashi tried to discipline their fans at any cost. Sho Sakurai prove it. Be careful in pointing fingers to others… cause it will comes back to you three times…
