JE
I originally posted this as a reply on peroxidepest17's journal.
And please keep in mind than I don't mean to bash anyone in this post.
I'm relatively new to JE world and I first knew them from local J-culture magazines and peroxidepest17 fanfics. Which puzzled me that when I decided to take a plunge into JE fandom, I fell hard for Arashi, who is never featured in her fics, like, at all. I love Arashi despite their total failure in dancing and singing, compared to other JE boybands (except Ohno, who is really good at dancing and singing, but a total failure in his idol attitude). And I mean no harm by this comment, considering I love Arashi as the silly dorks they are, as much as the other Arashi fans.
I'm quite confused that despite peroxidepest17's total exposure of NewS and awesome fics of them, I don't seem to be able to like NewS wholeheartedly. Koyama (who reminds me of my brother) is still very dear to me, like, in I-really-want-to-marry-this-guy kind of love. And Ryo reminds me of myself (who fails at empathy and kind words). I don't really like Tegoshi, and that's quite confusing, considering how cute and totally loveable he is. This made freedomthisway asked me, "Don't you usually fall for the cutest one?". And I said to her, "This one doesn't work. Don't know why..."
I don't like KAT-TUN (but I like reading peroxidepest17's fics about them, guess I love her fics too much). I probably almost hate them if not for my admiration and amusement toward Koki (who I think is one of the cutest and dearest boys of JE despite his gangsta appearance) and the fact that Ueda in fics is so damn funny and loveable (and constantly bickering with Ryo). This made another friend asked me, "But they're good looking, and smartly-dressed. You LOVE men who are smartly-dressed." And I answered, "Dunno. There's something about them, I don't know what it is, that rubbed me in the wrong way."
How do you explain things like that, actually?
When I first go into Arashi fandom, I was baffled in the size of their fandom itself. I thought, "WTF? These guys are not even THAT good looking! And this is Japan so they're probably can't sing to save their lifes as well." But then I got their whammy and going ga ga over their pictures in five days flat.
That's kind of scary...
And I'd like to revise my opinion toward Taguchi Junnosuke aka Junno of KAT-TUN. At first, I think he reminds me of my brother as well, but that only works if I stared at the still pictures of Junno. My brother can never be as happy, childish, and dorky as Junno. My brother is a calm, caring, and quite well-dressed young man who charm his way to his girlfriend' (and ex-gfs') and their mothers' hearts. But he can be a little bit insensitive and sarcastic sometimes.

You are Ryo! You are the type who likes to get things done the way it is needed to be done. You speak your mind without fear of others, making others fear you at times. You are strict on yourself and others and sometimes you find yourself saying things you do not really mean to say. Yet, in the end you try to work things out with everyone and become friends with many.
