Hello all !
It is today, the birthday of my biased Arashi member, and quite possibly the love of my (fangirl) life, Ninomiya Kazunari. In the span of his 31 years of life, 16 years of it was spent alongside Johnnys and Associates, to which 15 years was well spent with 4 others in a stormy journey of Arashi. To which, I have had the pleasure of spending 7 years growing up with them.
In my 7 years of journey, I have met with a lot of people from numerous parts of the world. And even though I may not be the most socialized person, I greatly appreciate the company I’ve had within the fandom. From brief moments, to the best of friends. From those who care to share, and those who respect the rules and (raw/subs) providers. To these people, I would like you hold this special giveaway for you.
It is with great pleasure that I announce this on the much-celebrated birthday of our bratty king, our game master, or magician and the forever 17.
What I am giving away:
LE version of this year’s releases
Bittersweet LE (Japan First Press)
GUTS! LE (Japan First Press)
Dare mo Shiranai LE (Japan First Press)
ARAFES’13 DVD LE (Japan First Press)
LOVE DVD LE (Japan First Press)
any other releases up to sept 15

Things I haven’t decided yet ahahaha
This pictures only since I'm not getting round to snapping up the other items now, am I?
Shipping costs for this giveaway will be covered entirely by the organizer, a.k.a. me!
^ ______ ^
So…
how do you win yourselves these items?
Well, there are several themes for this giveaway!
You may choose from:
something that you've done solely for/bcos of arashi
how arashi changed your life
what big/interesting thing you'll be doing for arashi's anniversary
With either one or a combination of any or all of the topics above, this giveaway requires you to submit any form of presentation of choice. You may choose from making videos, to drawing doujins (hinthint my otps are NinoAi, SakuMoto, OhnoxNakamaYukie), to maybe an essay, or even creating a powerpoint. You may even create something and send pictures of it, however, no cookie points will be given for making 3D models.
What I want to see:
1) Effort. Like really, this will earn you a loooooooooot of cookie points.Try to pull a “Oh I don’t know, i love them all for everything they’ve done, they’re just so great, you know!?” on me, and the chances of you winning is really low. Like, I want to know the ‘how’ with all the details. I don’t want something you can send in 5 minutes, I want you to be creative, to find inspirations, to work and project your work, to create something you can be proud of, even if you don’t win.
2) Creativity. You can use any form of presentation. The more creative you are, the more I know you put in effort for this, the more you’re going to increase your chances of winning something.
3) An active account. Either your twitter, tumblr, or LJ has to be active. Being active on facebook WONT help, cos I don’t have a facebook account, and I’m the one holding this giveaway and creating the rules *shrugs* ahahahahaa!
Things I don’t want to see:
1) Short submissions. Like, no. This is the total contrast of what I want to see. Short submissions = no effort.
2) Submissions from users who disrespects subs/raw providers and anyone else in the fandom. I do not want to be encouraging this behaviour, so if you’re one of those people, please don’t participate in this giveaway. This giveaway is solely for those who share and respects other users.

Please comment if you have any enquiries at all. I will update this post with common questions (sort of like an FAQ) as and when I feel the need.
Anyways, good luck to you all !!
