Would like to share ShoYuri & OhnoYuri kawaii~ combi-s^^
Asaichi - 26 December 2014 Asaichi hosts were V6 Inocchi and NHK announcer, Udo-san. But ShoYuri appeared alone since the opening, acting like they're Asaichi regular hosts, haha! Right before Asaichi was NHK Asadora, Massan, and the episode that day tells about how the Japanese people doesn't like the Scottish whiskey Massan produced.
Sho: It's really too bad, whiskey made in Japan was finally born, but it doesn't suit Japanese tongue. Yoshitaka-san, what should we do to make the Japanese like whiskey?
Yuri: Yappari... we should put in some ice and soda......HIGHBALL weeyyyy!!!
ShoYuri give the thumbs up.
Hahaha~ they're so cute! It was a trademark gesture from Yuri's most popular Highball CM, LOL. Inocchi and Udo immediately came out "Chotto, chotto... don't give that gesture in the morning!"
When the host was reading letters, there was one person who called Sho "Sakurai" without -san or -kun ("yobisute"), so it became a joke the hosts and Yuri calling him "Sakurai." When the host said it's time for Sho to go cause he has other job schedule...
Yuri: Ehhhh......... Sakurai, kaecchau no? (you're leaving?)
Sho: Gomen ne (sorry), Yoshitaka!
haha~ Yuri kawaiiii~! It really looked like she was so sad that Sho was leaving her. And I like they called each other's surname without honorific suffic, just like classmates!
I like ShoYuri as much as NinoMao combi, haha! NinoMao in Asaichi 2011, were very cute too, especially when Mao was tapping Nino's arm, "Okiteeee (wake up)... ii kagen okite (wake up already)!" and Nino brushed off Mao's hand, "I'm awake, I'm awake!"
Yume no Kouhaku - 28 December 2014 Ohno: Have you get yourself ready?
Yuri: *grinning* Not yet...
Ohno: *chuckled* It's in 3 days! Be ready!
This combi was quite cute too... but, maa... it's Ohno ne... he always distance himself from his co-stars, haha. But Yuri looked quite comfortable around him.
I just realized Yuri is comfortable and feel relax around Arashi members, not just Nino. She act like Arashi members are her brothers or cousins or classmates or childhood friends, something like that. The way she speak and interact with them is quite different than when she was with Ikuta Toma, asadora's Kubota Masataka and/or Suzuki Ryohei.
I find the same thing with Ayase Haruka. When she was with SMAP, to me... Ayase is quiet, shy and "slow". When I watched her with Arashi ni Shiyagare, I was surprised that she's chirpy, not shy at all and even talk back whenever Arashi members tease her and she's very funny and stupid(*in a good way) when she's around Arashi. I realized this difference is because Ayase is nervous when she's around SMAP members and see them as the sempai she respect, while with Arashi, she thinks of them like high school classmates. I love Ayase more when she's around Arashi. Besides Arashi, I've only seen Ayase close with Sato Takeru, she's quite comfortable around him too, and they always argue, it was cute, but that's it. While Arashi could trigger Ayase to do or say stupid things, cause she doesn't hold back when she's with them, it's really interesting to see Ayase with Arashi.
Not sure with Inoue Mao, but so far I see her comfortable only with Nino, besides Jun. In case of Yuri, it looked like she really likes all Arashi members, and really depend on them during the whole Kouhaku thing since press conference.
Ohno doesn't react much around actresses or other women, but only with Ayase I see that Ohno naturally felt like scolding her. With other guests, usually it was acting, it was scripted. But with Ayase, it came out naturally, imho. Biggest proof was when Arashi and Ayase had a CM shooting, Ayase suddenly giggled after the director said "Cut!" and Ohno naturally warned her, "You shouldn't laugh!"... it was a making camera that shot this moment, so it was totally not scripted. That's why, I find OhnoHaru combi unusual^^
It's interesting to know 2 Fushigi-chans, Yuri and Haru are comfortable around Arashi, but they look different when they're around their other co-stars. I can't blame Ayase that she looks boring around SMAP, cause SMAP always give out that "Don't you dare come near me" aura, LOL. It's really rare to find actresses or other female artists that looks natural and relax around SMAP, except probably Mizuki Arisa cause she has known them since she was 10. Oh, Kanno Miho with SMAP in a SataSma episode in 1999, was also sugooiii ... it really looked like Miho is a sister in that moment cause it was behind-the-scene type of moments, and Miho could just hand over the baby to Kimura Takuya, and both with poker faces, like it's an everyday routine haha. Then Miho was feeding the baby who was carried by half-naked Shingo. And Miho really acted futsu, like half-naked Shingo is something Miho sees everyday! Urayamashiiiiiii~~! Really too bad Miho wasn't allowed to appear with SMAP again ever since she dated Goro, she was really close with all SMAP members, that time. She appeared in Nakai's shows sometimes though, and I really love Nakai's big brother attitude toward her.
Hopefully someday there'll be that kind of behind-the-scenes moment between Arashi and Yuri/Mao/Haru/Maki ^o^
