Seriously, J-storm is trying to make us bankrupt.

ARASHI IN ASIA+ in DOME CONCERT DVD on sale 10/17. SERIOUSLY. NOW they start moving fast.

I shouldn't be complaining...but seriously, where will all my money disappear to if they keep on releasing movies and concert DVDs and CDs? I swear I'm going to have to steal work my butt off to get some money.

Besides that, I saw Jun's "Boku wa Imouto ni Koi wo suru" today. 
I wrote this on the Bokuimo thread over at Aibakaland...but anyways. My rambling opinion: *SPOILERS*

I was sort of hesitant about watching this movie at first because of what I had heard about the original story (manga). As much as I love Jun, I didn't really want to see a movie about incest.
But the movie wasn't anything like I expected. Everyone keeps talking about their negative views on incest, how explicit the manga is, etc. But the movie didn't have explicit sex scenes, and it didn't really give you the feeling that it's a story about a brother and sister loving each other. I feel it was more about love in general.
A lot of things were inferred, but I think that was what made the movie better. I consider it a completely different creation from the manga, which it is, because it is a movie. It may seem slow, but it was a really quiet and calm movie that really portrayed how hard it is to love someone (not just how hard it is if you loved your sister). 
But yeah, it was quiet and calm that it seemed a bit long (but 2 hours is normal, I believe)...but nonetheless, it had a good flow to it and made sense. 
I just sort of wish they had a concrete ending...but the fact that you had to infer it made it better, I think. It would've been hard to have a concrete ending to it especially because it's such a controversial topic.

It was beautifully done, and I'm glad I watched it.
