Fandom complains.

And this is mostly for Kat-tun fans, but I don't even know how many Kat-tun fans would actually read my LJ.

I rarely participate or give comments with regards to discussion about fandom rules because different people have different opinions no matter how much I disagree with them. One example will be no reposting even if credits are given. I mean I

Comments

I really have no comment on most of this; I was never one to participate or help in fandom. Arashi may be the first group that I've followed with such a strong following, haha.

But I do wonder why Kame has been blasted with such poor roles of late. I mean, all my love to Oh-chan, but Maou and even Uta no Onii-san are superior to One Pound and Kami no Shizuku. Oh-chan's not even "popular;" at least I would wager that Kame is more so (take the results from Nikkan Sports as an example). I think that they weighted his popularity too heavily these past two times. When there are so many good dramas with strong storylines and great casting, can you really depend on one idol to pull in high viewer ratings? Apparently that was their hope.

I usually have no comments too, it's just the girl puts in so much efforts, my heart hurts for her.

LOL. well.... I have no watch any of the shows u mentioned except for Maou. But you are right, they can be hoping for kame alone to bring in the viewership. Either that or Johnny-san hates Kame.

Anyway, the saddest fandom must be SMAP. I have worked hard to find the maybe eight but surely still less than ten episodes of SMAPxSMAP, even dling torrents for weeks. If I ever learn enough Japanese, that is what I am going to attempt. (Then again, if I ever learn enough Japanese, I probably wouldn't care enough or be kind enough to help a fandom out, because I'm cruel. I'm nowhere as nice as you and other subbers, and I don't care about being "virtually" elite.)

(Sadly, Arashi doesn't need me for subbing; at least, not unless their popularity suddenly takes a downturn x:)

Is it terrible that I don't really notice colors then? And Arashi videos are very colorful; it's almost a prerequisite. I actually prefer the plain text ... good translation and grammar matter more to me than effects x: (although I do like karaoke themes!)

and I've only watched the Ohno dramas x:
but I still haven't finished Maou yet since I already knew what was going to happen from the original drama
