a fresh Taiga and Yamabu

The chibi Jrs did not perform SAM this SC which made me look forward to the next SC like crazy >"< However, I did not regret staying up until 3AM on Monday to download the full SC and upload it (it could be found at shokura)

Back ^_^ Thank you for uploading SC. Ah new costumes, I don't quite like what they gave Shoon though and he got so little screen time. Taiga looks tall, and there is a slight difference in his hairstyle, nice. I'm a bit worried he'll shoot up too fast (only turning 14 in Dec). I bet the costumes for SAM will be more 'stylish'. The Japanese fan was right, he was sort of pushed during the medley and ended standing behind while the other 5 were in front. I was disappointed 'My Everything' wasn't longer. Taiga says (Duet Oct) that when he gets lucky he can do the spin for 30 seconds.

Jr ni Q, Taiga - 「チャンジャ」辛いもの大好き. He likes kimchi or something like that, someone has to help translate. I was guessing as much they'd bring out Nakajima Kento soon. He's lucky cause he seems to have caught quite a bit of attention by using that smile of his. I think Sato Shun's chances of getting a permanent place with the Fresh Jrs has been affected, first Kikushi Fuma and now Nakajima Kento.

Shoon hid himself somewhere backstage with Yabu. That's a good one ^_^ Not much Shoon and Taiga in this SC, this weekend will be better *cross fingers*. Egoist and Angel come to me made my heart ache. These songs bring back so much Ya-Ya-yah in them. But I thought both Yabu and Hikaru looked happy and proud to perform those songs, and at least they didn't perform it with other HSJ members (for now). I want to believe they'll always remember where it all started for them. As much I as I like Yabu and Hikaru, I don't think they should let any debuted Johnny's take up too much SC show time. Shoon, I hope better things are ahead for him. I won't mind if they put him together with Hasshi, Yuki, Sanada. Keep the older groups as they are and save Jrs like Shoon and Hasshi from the wrath of mean fans. Maybe it'd work out *shrugs*. Next SC!.....

So the Sho Takada gang is called Fresh Jrs.? I still need to learn a lot about the jrs. I prefer Sato Shun over Nakajima Kento. Somehow, Sato Shun smiles much brighter than Nakajima. Actually, I had to rewatch the SC again to see who is this Nakajima. Except for Sato, only Masuda Ryo and Okawa Keigo catch my attention.

Do you think the reason Taiga was pushed behind because of his height? His Duet 2008.11 scan reminds me of Taiyo: Long face, tall but skinny... Being tall is good, but not too tall. I'm afraid that Johnny doesn't like super-tall people.

I don't think they should let any debuted Johnny's take up too much SC show time
We have the same thought. SC is about the juniors, so let them perform as many as they can. take the Aug SCs as examples, they are my least favourite. To fill out the empty spots of A.B.C and Kisumai, the Jrs that rarely sing in the other SCs should get a chance to show off their voices so maybe we can discover some potential in them. Instead of doing so, 5 guests were invited (doesn't count Koyama and Shige) and took all over the shows. If there was a lack of Juniors, why didn't they let Shoon sing a solo part ?

They made another silly decision by inviting some Britain group to the show. Sometimes, I don't know what JE is thinking. What can I expect next? Ayumi or Koda Kumi in Johnny countdown? Next SC could be a perfect one for me, but now...*sigh*

That's what they were called a while back, nothing official but it's just easier to refer to them that way. Fresh Jrs is often used to refer to new Jrs in mags. Nakajima Kento kind of resembles Ohkura of K8. I thought there was a chance Sato Shun was going to be placed in this group but they've put in 2 others instead. Let's hope he continues to work hard and gets to join one of the more 'permanent' groups soon. Keigo got a lot of spotlight at first, but it seems to have slowed down a bit.

About Taiga, what the fan meant was that another Jr sort of pushed him so he didn't get to come in front on time. I've heard quite a few people say Taiga reminds them of Taiyo. The Duet 2008.11 scan is good, thanks. Cute, and he's starting to look a little handsome don't you think? IMO all the photoshoots for Nov turned out pretty well, though I haven't seen high-res scans anywhere. 178cm (slowly) would be just nice, but it's not exactly within his control is it?

I agree with what you said about SC. They should have given Shoon a solo during one of those shows. I'm baffled about US5 performing on SC. Don't sigh... let's just try to enjoy what's good. Trying not to expect too much and end up disappointed but I'm looking forward to Shoon solo and Taiga in SAM and talk segment.. and possibly the Taipi-Taiga moment mentioned ^^
