I'm so happy about VS Arashi going to golden time. Congrats to Arashi! This is turning out to be a really really great 10th year for them. It couldn't have happened at a better time. A show with Arashi just hanging out is love <3. They're just so funny and comfortable around each other that they can make anything fun.

Aiba-chan is really HOT in the Chou Chou spread. And I'm loving his hair

Thanks for the article links. Arashi are so cute when they're around each other, it's like they are genuinely having fun doing what they do. I'm thinking that the song Oh-chan chose for Sho-kun is Re(mark)able, what do you guys think? I hope they will tell us who chose what song, I'm really curious. And Nino's interview was very philosophical, as always.

There are some rumors floating around that Aiba is going to be in a drama based on the Korean version of "My Girl." It's just a rumor at this point since there is no legitimate source, but I really hope it is true. I want him to show everyone what he's capable of.

I love the LE cover, so happy I got it. I'm not feeling the RE cover though, what does the bus supposed to represent? Maybe it'll look better up close but as of right now, I'm not feeling it. The Concert logo is ok for me too, I don't like the font too much. I guess the theme colors for this tour will be red and blue? Can't wait.

I hope Aiba-chan's drama rumor is true. Really want to see him in a drama this year.

I really love the Arashi in Tokyo Disney Sea CM. I would never imagine Arashi or any Johnny's to be doing these kinds of events, it just seems so un-Johnny's like. And I was even more surprised to see Arashi's picture on House's official website. I thought Johnny's don't allow that.... But anyways, Arashi and Disney characters are

Arashi member Masaki Aiba (26) is set to take on his first lead role in a drama series this fall. He will star in TV Asahi's "My Girl," his first series since "Yankee Bokou ni Kaeru" in 2003.

Aiba, who is more known for appearing in variety shows than in dramas, said that he wants to show his fans a "completely different Masaki Aiba" from his usual self.

"My Girl" is based on a manga by Mizu Sahara (an alternate pen name of mangaka Sumomo Yumeka), currently being serialized in Shinchosha's Weekly Comic Bunch. The comic is described as an "ultimate love story" about a young man named Masamune Kazama (Aiba). During high school, he had a girlfriend four years older than him, but she suddenly left one day. Six years later, he receives news that she has passed away. In addition, she secretly gave birth to Masamune's child, whom he finally meets and decides to raise.

TV Asahi will broadcast "My Girl" in its Friday 11:15pm time slot, starting in October.

Very good episode. Lots of cute OhnoxChinen and Ohmiya moments. Oh-chan talked a lot of this episode surprisingly, I guess it's because Chinen was there.

I thought Sho was so adorable during Rolling Coin Tower. The Nino vs. Chinen part was funny. I love when Aiba tells Chinen to lie down, but Chinen doesn't believe him until they get Ohno to tell him to lie down and he does it immediately, lol.

Nino's picture of him peeking out from under the covers is freaking adorable. T-T <3

I came across this today and was amazed. I wonder how much of that they really see.

The eight minute track has a hidden track that has snippets of:
- Edo Harumi's Gu-gag
- Right Back To You : mada mada hold me tight
- Step And Go : rolling rolling
- Re(mark)able

Download it here.

It's SUPER fast and catchy, lol. I really love it.

I love the hidden track, it is super catchy. Makes me wanna get up and dance lol. Thanks for pointing out the snippets, I only caught Right Back To You and Step and Go's parts the first time I heard the song. I guess Edo Harumi's Gu gag is when MatsuJun goes
この静けさの中 setting 南北から faking (come on) ~ I thought the settingu and fakingu parts were pretty funny. I need to go listen for Re(mark)able now, this is actually kind of fun.

Just checked HMV and they're processing my order, hopefully they'll ship the CD out to me soon

jtania and cassy_clim8, welcome to the Arashi's thread. Yoroshiku onegaishimasu.

1st Day Sales for All The Best! 1999-2009 261,076

This is a good start for Arashi. I think it's still too early to tell just how much this album will sell but I'm hoping it will go over 500k for the 1st week. But I'm so happy that this album is doing so much better than any of Arashi's previous albums.

amazing sales for the first day! although i had much higher expectations (possibly a bit too high....at 500k+) i still am satisfied with the actual sales.

and thanks for this week's AnS. i was looking for it!

^ I think that if J-Storm had issued more of the LE, first day sales would be much bigger. The LE is sold out everywhere since yesterday and if they only sold 261k, then that must means that there were only 150k - 200k of the LE printed AT MOST. A lot of Japanese fans are desperately trying to get the LE the same way they're desperately trying to get tickets to the concert. I went on Yahoo Auction earlier and so many people are selling the LE for around 10,000 yen. I think if there were more of the LE available, people wouldn't take advantage of this situation and try to make a profit from Arashi. And I'm sure that many fans are willing to buy both the LE and RE if they're available. I hope they will decide to print more of the LE, but it looks doubtful at this point.

All The Best! 1999 - 2009

Day 1 #1 - 261,076
Day 2 #1 - 171,046

I feel much better about the sales for All The Best!

I hope it continues like this.

and my prediction for a 400k+ second day was correct!

congrats to the boys! i think now this BEST album is their best selling album, right? and it only took two days, also. amazing!
