Wow.. I'm posting - again.. and here I thought I established a pattern of posting once month to ensure that I'm still around..
Reason for more posts than 1 this month is because I have something to RAVE about..
That being Arashi's latest and whitest greatest song yet.
Keep in mind though; Monster is still my favorite, besides Matsujun and his great hair at the time, now he just looks like a character from Dragonball , this song was what baited me to Arashi in the 1st place - remember folks, I only started LJ in June 2010 and that's when my obsessive fascination of all things Arashi (especially Nino) took hold.
Now I have many thoughts on this PV, which is why I'm splitting it up into numerous comparisons. Several reason for this include
- I don't want you to lose your train of thought
- I don't want to lose MY train of thought (I tend to waffle, but you all know that by now)
- I don't want to lose the few friends that actually do read my journal believing that I'm actually a nutter and run heading for the hills
So here goes Comparison #1:
The Rui Factor
Face it, I'm a die-hard HYD fan like any other person out there, but couldn't help but see that
- Arashi are dressed up all in white (with a few specks of grey here and there)
- Rui Hanazawa is generally dressed up all in white.
Visual aids are here for your viewing drooling pleasure convenience:
Arashi:
Various versions of Rui Hanazawa:
Rui Hanazawa - Hana Yori Dango (2005, 2006, 2008)
Yoon Ji Ho - Boys Over Flowers (Korean, 2009)
Hanazawa Rui - Boys Over Flowers (anime, 1995)
Is it just me? Or when others watch the Lotus PV, you can't help but see 5 Rui's dancing around?
Granted, they don't have Rui hair or red colouring but dang - those white outfits are startling!

Well, I believe the best looking one in this PV (and probably the best contender for Rui) is :
See, even Nino's pointing out that he's the best looking guy around - LOL
