Song for a Friend - Jin/Maru Fan video

Feb 07, 2011 12:29

I'm really happy for Jin's solo success so far but I admit that I do miss him from KAT-TUN, especially Jin/Maru interaction.  Even though everyone bullies Maru, no one does it better than Jin :p

To help ease my Nakanishi wounded heart I made a fanvideo featuring a song by my favorite musician, Jason Mraz.  I mentioned previously in this post how I ( Read more... )

I loved the video Mi-chan!!! ^____^
Awwnnn... Miss Jinjin too... And Nakanishi even more!! >///<
I remember when I first saw a video about those rumours of Jin leaving the group and they put the song "BANDAGE" as soudtrack I almost cried. I can't explain what I felt at that moment... I just can say that it was sad... I haven't listened to that song again since then... ;__;
I know what you feel... And I still have hope to see those two together again in someway!!

Random: I love that last gif you put in your sidebar! ♥

I'm happy you liked it. I was worried it wasn't any good since no one seemed to be commenting ;__;
I really hope we can see the two together again too. I'm praying that Jin goes on Shounen Club as a guest to promote Eternal since it seems like the only place we could see them together.

Awww, that's too bad that Bandage was ruined for you. I only recently watched the movie and bought the Lands CD. I quite like the song.

I fell in love with the gif when I saw it at Pola-chan's LJ ♥_____♥

That's a bit sad indeed, even because I like that song so much! ;__;
But I'll overcome it!! \o/
Yes, having Jin as a guest at Shounen Club would be awesome! That makes me wonder if the japanese fans are dealing with Jin's solo carrer better the worldwide fans. Seems to me that the foreigner fans didn't accept this very well...

Based on some brief footage of the YG3011 lives, it seems like he's playing to really large crowds but that doesn't surprise me since he is Japanese after all even if he sings a lot of songs in English. But we'll have a better idea once the single is released and how well it does.

It seems to me like JE thinks the Japanese fans are really sensitive about the whole thing because it's really rare for Jin and KT to even be mentioned in the same sentence on the air. Which makes me wonder if Jin will appear on SC at all. *crossing my fingers*

As I'm sure you already noticed I would say there are 3 types of fans - fans that are strict Jin fans that have since abandoned KT, KT fans that couldn't care less about Jin since he's left (both sad but true), and fans that support them both.

For me, it's strange in the sense that I actually like Jin a lot more since he left. Not that I didn't like him as a part of KAT-TUN but that I misunderstood him for the longest time. Now that I feel that I can understand him better I really like him a lot

This reminds me of the old days where Jin was still a part of KAT-TUN and seemed happy Q.Q

Nakanishi's interactions are always cute, and when Jin was in his moody self, it looked as though he could still be silly and smiley when with Maru.
Well, I'm glad he's able to smile like his usual self now that he's gone solo. As much as it hurts, I think KAT-TUN is better off as 5-nin and Akanishi Jin is better off as a solo artist. *hides*

I would've liked it better if the video was a little bit shorter but it overall it was great. You did good on your first try. I'll add it to my favourites definitely! :)

I agree KT and Jin seem much happier apart and I'll continue to support them both but in an ideal world I think I would still prefer if they were together. I love 5-nin KT but music-wise they are better with Jin although I am glad that T-TUN can be heard more now.

Yup, one of the reasons I have really grown to love the pair. Makes me feel all warm and fuzzy that Maru can bring that smile out of him. And also from the hiatus to his departure, I feel as though Maru has always supported him. I'm really happy Maru cares a lot about members and ex-members a like.

I would've liked it better if the video was a little bit shorterI was wondering about that. Maybe the lack of comments is because a lot of people gave up halfway ^_ ( ... )

Emily-chan ♥♥♥♥♥

You don't know how much I ♥ you for this :))) A very small amount of people are missing NakaNishi. And posts about the two of together are getting less these days. So, seeing the fanvid makes me feel so touchy. :)

and you did take some good parts :) And you can see how much Jin can show all his natural sides with Maru. And after Kame (in their chibi days), he seems to be closest to Maru. He is the only one who even went to Jin's farewell party. (the gesture enough is so... ♥)

and all those bullying! That's one that I missed the most! The way Jin will sadistically bully Maru with all his cute imperfections and Maru will hit him back. But in the end, they will laugh together. Ahhh!

But then Jin seems to be a lot more happier now. And Maru is too :))) so I'm just showering you, Jin, and Maru with ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥

and now, don't worry about the lack of comemnts. People are getting a bit lazy giving comment these days....

and were still here :) *hugs*

Thank you so much for the lovely comment. I can't even tell you how happy it makes me ♥♥♥♥
*wants to hug you tight and not let go*

I'm happy with how the video turned out so I know I'm being silly with the whole comment thing. Ordinarily it's not a big deal but I realized that when you put a lot of time into something it's nice to receive some feedback. Plus Nakanishi love is pretty rare even amongst Maru fans so it would be nice to see more appreciation for them because like you said posts about the two of them are hard to come by. I'm really happy though that there at least those few of us who still treasure the 2 of them ^_^

You're so right. I also think out of all the members of KT he's the most natural with Maru. Nakanishi brand of bullying is quite special and there's really no other like it and Maru has an uncanny ability to bring that smile out of him.

He is the only one who even went to Jin's farewell party. (the gesture enough is so... ♥)IKR, Maru was there at the hiatus press conference, he attended Jin's "You&Jin" ( ... )

Nakanishi brand of bullying is quite special and there's really no other like it and Maru has an uncanny ability to bring that smile out of him. ~ yes, even NaKame can't do that kind :))) They're being gentle :)))) NakaNishi is more of like a brotherhood :)))) Like Maru is Jin's lost, missing brother :)

And I really really believe that he did attend :) but kame crying at the vip? Hmmm...

I'm happy that somehow I cheered you up :)))
