This was originally going to be longer, but then I realized I can only be so ridiculous today.

» Journal hopping led me to: Dante's Internet and lolling so hard right now.

♫ - Shun releasing an All Night Nippon magazine and AHHH WHY AREN'T THERE BIGGER FANDOMS FOR NON-JE ACTORS because I would totally be interested in translations of that!

♫ - Boku no Miteiru Fuukei's first day sales set a new record for Arashi and I am delighted by this

I am loving all your Arashi posts lately, they make me squee :D

HnA 88: Random fandom collision moment - seeing Verbal from M-flo (my first ever favorite J-music group!!) in the judging panel! Even though he's got a rather...interesting style sense of his own, lol.

Ohno the little BASTARD copying the BEAMS mannequin, and especially his little fish broach in the pocket - I love when one of the judging guests was like, ew, why would you want that?? And then Ohno got all defensive and started blaming the sales attendant for saying they had left it out for him, so HE HAD TO BUY IT AND THAT'S TOTALLY NOT HIS FAULT. (Also, angry!Ohno is hot. ...um, yeah. XD) And re: Nino messing around w/everyone - I think my favorite was when he gave Ohno a dress and told him he'd look good in it. xD AND AIBA AND JUN BOTH HAVING "SHIRTS ON SHIRTS" HAHAHA their expressions of "..." were TOTALLY great. And Jun was a good sport in the end, getting his "punishment" - he bore it like a champ, and the photos were so fantastically gay and yet I am not surprised

Oh sure you say that now, but wait a week until I've tl;dr'd you into a fugue state. :|b

HnA 88: I like when they get odd guests like Verbal in (odd in the sense that you wouldn't often put him together with Arashi, that is), especially when it's for fashion stuff. I loved the whole thing with Ohno and the fish, because it was semi-true, the guy kind of did force him into buying it, since he prepared it ~*specially for Ohno*~ and I actually really like what he did with it, making it look like a heart in his pocket. It worked well with the outfit! (Angry!Ohno is totally hot. So is angry!Aiba, which we should see more of, too.)

I still feel badly for Jun because I think it really is frustrating to him and he does have trouble when he's not good at something/gets criticized for it even though he was really trying, but. The photoshoot at the end. He was amazing during that and I will cherish that memory forever.

VSA102: I LOVED NINO'S COMMENT AT THE END. He does snark so well and NO REALLY HE HAD SO MUCH FUN REALLY and everyone just dies laughing all the more because he's such an idiot today. ♥ And I wouldn't

THAT'S NOT POSSIBLE at least not when I don't have school right now LOL

Haha the other thing that I remember laughing so hard over in HnA 88 was when Sho was SO HAPPY he won he cramped his foot. Oh, Sho, even when you win you fail. (AND YES ANGRY AIBA! Was it in your last post that you talked about him being the angry dad in the skit with Ohno? 'Cause THAT WAS HURRRRR HELLO AIBA.)

And the faces of the rest of Arashi, purposely making the OMGAH LOOK AT JUN FAIL expressions were GOLDEN. Seriously, I would put that photoshoot up as wallpaper in my room.

VSA102: YESSSS HIS FLAT LITTLE VOICE. I'm in the process of trying to make a mood series using just VSA caps and man, 102 was a GOLD MINE. All of Nino's "I'm super cool *sparkle*" faces at the camera, and then his various fail!moments, too. And yeah, I can't remember the last time Nino was the butt of the joke, so I'm glad he got to do it in this episode. (Nino as cranky bitch of the group will NEVER get old, though. :D)

(And this is really random, but...did you ever watch the HnA Haunted House trials that Arashi had to go through?)

SCHOOL IS FOR WEENIES! I HATE SCHOOL!

[beckerbell]

Yes! It was the previous post (I forget which episode number of Himitsu it was) with Shaku-san where Aiba and Ohno did the father/son skit and Aiba was seriously so hot in it. I used to have trouble imagining him genuinely angry (which is still a little hard even after that), but... yeah, seeing that? HIIIII AIBA WHERE DO YOU WANT ME TO SEND MY RIDICULOUSLY SQUEEFUL LOVE LETTERS TO?

Oh, man, if it wouldn't be a ton of work (to go through all their episodes to find perfect shots), I would totally do an Arashi mood theme. It'd be amazing and I'm envious of your one already! *___*

No, I haven't watched those yet! I kept putting them off and putting them off and then I forgot what episode numbers they were and where they are in my archives.... orz

HnA88 DESCRIBES ARASHI SO PERFECTLY agjks;ld I knew Jun would lose the poor kid tries too hard......

Recently I've been getting back into this fandom too it's seriously amazing I COULD RECOMMEND YOU A WHOLE more since my friend has every himitsu no arashi chan subbed. HAVE YOU WATCHED EPISODE 69???

[beckerbell]

What confuses me is that I know Jun actually has a good fashion sense and could pick out excellent outfits, he just... doesn't? And yet he really is trying super hard and super serious? YOU CONFUSE ME SOMETIMES, JUNBUG. Though, I love these kinds of episodes, I do wish Himitsu would ease up on the boys a little sometimes.

OH MAN I AM SO DISORGANIZED. I've usually tried to catch all the subs as they come out, if I can spot them, but I have no idea what I have and what I don't. I really wish someone would create an updated, organized list of what group has what subbed, it would help so much to have a checklist. T__T

(And I am seriously up for recommendations ANY TIME. What happens in #69?)
