[Arashi] ARASHI IS ALIVE! - Section blurbs
I love love love these little blurbs that can be found at the beginning of each section in the photobook and on the last group spread at the end. I can't say much for the photography and the layout, but whoever that wrote these things? A+++, seriously. I was going to work on Ohno's but these distracted me, and quite frankly I think it's really worth a read. XD
Like usual, comments are always appreciated; Enjoy!

ARASHI IS ALIVE!
Dream-A-live
--Dreams and reality is the theme--
Osaka, Nagoya, Fukuoka, Tokyo, Sapporo.
What will they be able to convey as they continue forward?
Arashi's brand new story begins here.
Step and Go
Ohno Satoshi, Sakurai Sho, Aiba Masaki, Ninomiya Kazunari, Matsumoto Jun.
These five members of Arashi who differ in both colours and personality,
have become one and gradually increased in strength.
Now they will raise a great storm unlike any ever seen before.
We can make it!
"The us from ten years ago had never thought we would be able to do something this amazing." (Sakurai Sho)
Yes, come to think of it their "beginning" had been unexpected.
But meeting each other was definitely something inevitable, no?
Arashi: A miracle-like 5-man group.
Do my best
June 1st, second day in Nagoya.
Sakurai Sho fractured his right hand during rehearsals.
But hours later, he stood on the stage with a smile like always, and then danced in midair.
Do my best-- certainly words that describe Arashi's true worth.
Happiness
Unrestrained enthusiasm, overflowing smiles.
The five figures moving on the stage has taught us this.
The wonder of simply enjoying something,
and the importance of experiencing tiny bits of happiness in everyday life.
YOUR SONG
Arashi is singing. They are always putting everything they have in their hearts into their singing.
Above all else, singing together is important to them.
"To be able to share this joy with everyone,
I feel blessed from the bottom of my heart." (Matsumoto Jun)
A Day in Our Life
After the tour ended, the streets regained their usual sense of calm.
And without even the time to pause, the five of them returned to their hectic everyday lives.
Arashi is continuing onwards today as well.
Arashi's journey will never end.
Hadashi no Mirai
With their own respective thoughts about the tour, with their own respective thoughts about Arashi.
The five of them are always facing the next day without reason,
simply lost in their own world as they run through barefooted.
"Unchanging" charisma. That is Arashi.
Arashi provides dreams in things that can be seen.
They provide courage and energy in things that can be heard.
But, they walk with the same line of vision as everyone else;
they cry about the same things, and laugh as well.
These five people do not exist in a dream world far far away.
Arashi really is here.
