has anyone seen their new scans? I'm loving their new look and their new song.

march wink up scans are already out:
http://vendy.blog3.petitmall.jp/

Okay so I'm infinitely jealous of my cousin.. She called me at 4:30 in the MORNING. Eastern Time, USA JUST TO TELL ME THAT SHE SAW SHIGE IN SHIBUYA................ GAHHHHHHHHH!! She's mean... o_O

^That is soooooo COOLio!!!~ isn't Shibuya one of the most busy places?
by the way, Shige's new hair do is hot.

WAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH HOW LUCKY HOMG!!!!!!!!!!!! Y_Y

shige is my favorite NEWS member TT____________TT did she go up to him or what??

shige always hangs out there Y_Y

Yeah, it's one of the busiest... possibly the busiest.



She said she was just walking to some place, and then she saw that the person in front of her kinda looked like Shige, then he turned around for some reason and she realized that it WAS him (with another guy friend). He was going to some cafe. She wanted to go in with him, but right before, Shige's friend and my cousin had an eye contact, and she said she just couldn't follow them after that. Haha. According to my cousin, he probably goes there often because he looked like he was basically walking TO that particular place, you know what I mean? So she's gonna try to get a baito around the place to see if he comes again, or so she said... LOL

Umm yeah. So basically, when I go to Japan this May... I'm gonna sit out in some busy area in Shibuya, Harajuku, or Ginza every night just to see if I can spot them Johnny's... I heard they go out alot, especially the young ones to see whether they'll get noticed or not.

DOES HE LOOK HOT XDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD actually you know shige, shige doesnt look like a celebrity when's with Johnnys people, many people say that, but when you see him in an ordinary crowd he looks like a celebrity ^^;; but knowing Shibuya and all everyone looks like celeb there LMAO

but its good your cousin didnt come up to shige, because shige is kinda sorta well allergic to fans : x well not extactly tho, i dont know if he's afraid or he's just shy, he just feels akward when someone notices him. because he tells stories about fan encounters in he's jweb LOL, but i think one of them was because he thought the girl that went up to him was koyama fan not a shige fan, but koyama said the fan was a shige fan LOL i think shige was disapointed, but shige expects no one knows him, actually he thinks he has no fans Y_Y i dont know whats up with him. (i am here, Im a fan) LOL

but if i see him GOSH IF I SEE HIM ROFLMAOOOOOOOOOOOOOO omg because when i go to Japan im planning to visit he's University, Aoyama Uni and check it out and hope he's there XDDDDDDD but if i see him i will pretend im not a fan probably ask directions are what soo he can talk to me freely I WANNA HEAR HIM SPEAK IN ENGLISH XDDDDDDDDDD but knowing myself if i saw shige il just stand there and freeze ROFLMAOOOOOOOOOOOOO

but yes they hang out there most of the time besides it close to Johnnys, they shop and eat there like Massu, Tego, Koyama, Shige are always there ^^;;

OMG!!!!!!!! Your plan.. xD!!! That's EXACTLY WHAT I WAS GONNA DOOOOO!
Pick a place I wanna go, then if I spot one of THEM (you know ! hahaxD) I'll just look lost and confused.. asked nicely in English (or Japanese) how to get to the place... and then attack them by holding hands and say.. THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THE DIRECTIOn!!!... lol... oh my-- I'm crazy o_O
Or .. Plan B.. I'm gonna look for someone to take a picture for me.. approach THEM... ask them to take one for me.. then be like.. "Hey, I'm a foreigner.. I want some Japanese person to take a picture with me.. want to?" LOL!! I'm not sure how that'll work out since they're not allowed to take pictures with fans... I'll have to act really cool and casual and NOT look insanely excited.. right? teeheee..

Oh yeah, I saw this picture online of Shige at Aoyama Univ. Some Korean person took the picture in school.. LOL. he looked hot.. although it was just his back..

oh you mean this one right???



DAMN HOW HOT HE IS XDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD

i guess its okay with that picture thing LOL no one will be with them so it will be okay, but sometimes some celeb knows youre a fan i dont know but some times they sense BUT I THINK ITS OKAY XDDDDDDDDDD

Yamapi is really friendly to fans i heard XDDDDDDDD

Yeah that!!! hehehehehehe. I've seen some pictures of Yamapi on Yamanote texting.. man. if I spot him.. I'll just go nuts.. o_O if he still goes to Meiji, I'd go stalk him there! I'm going to Koyama's mom's noodle place when I go.. I heard Koyama comes very often, especially at night around 9pm.. LOL.
I daydream about this everyday (instead of doing hw, studying for tests, writing papers..) YEAH. MAY!!!

Yay! Finally NEWS is on the cover of magazines again!







Credit: Vendy's scans & me for uploading
P.S. I didn't actually ask for permission, but if anyone has a problem w/ me posting them here, tell me and I'll take it down.

I'm buying these two magazines tomorrow. Can't wait! There's a lot more pictures of them inside the magazine.

Yay.. Potato cover looks better.. I'm getting only Potato in mail.. so.. haha xD

do you know where Koyama Family Ramen shop is? and what is the name of the ramen shop?? I WANNA GO THERE TOO SHIGE EATS THERE TOO XDDDDDDDDDDD il visit Kei XDDDDDD

youre going there in May OMG GOOD LUCK TO YOU XDDD tell me all about it xDD when you come back ^^;;

that's so true.. whenever a junior in JE mention someones name.. like who's their favorite in NEWS or their idol, etc.. and if Shige's name is not mention he would look disappointed or think he doesn't have a fan. LOL... he's funny

The ramen store is.. I forgot the name.. but it's like 30 minutes from Shinjuku. gotta take Odakyu line and get off at Sobudai mae.. it's not in Tokyo.. kinda far from any downtown area ;-;

I think Ryo is the best looking out of all of them. <3

Thank you so much for posting it! When I listen to it I can totally picture the penguins treking on the ice as a group. I love the song and the beginning melody is so pretty! And Shige's voice is really nice and deep in this song! Even though he only sang one verse, but it was nice. Everyone's voice was nice. Definitely buying this.

*sigh* I'm sad, the Japanese bookstore in my area didn't get the new March issues yet. I guess I'll have to wait a couple weeks before I can get my NEWS issue.

Yamapiiiiiii. : D
and Ryo.
Ryooooooooo : D
and Yamapi.

okay i dont know what your saying but il take note of this, so when i go to Japan i can take a look at it ^^;;

lilsh0rtnancy yes beautiful it is ^^;; btw whose your fave member? is it shige?? LOL

Well, I liked YamaP and Ryo first because I got to know them through dramas and that's how I was intro. to NEWS as a group. As for my fave. member in the group? Hmm... that's a toughie. I like all of them for different reasons and I don't like to make one member my personal favorite because we're suppose to like them as a group right? I just wish that they were closer as a group, like Arashi and KanJani8 members are with each other, but then again NEWS is still fairly new so it's reasonable. I love watching them when they're all together, whether it be in interviews, on TV shows or in performances. When they're all together, my brain is in overdrive because there's too many cuties to keep my eyes on ... hehehe.

where can i go to order their new single?

but double check they said their already out of stock :x

lilsh0rtnancy thats true thats true actually i love them all too XDDDDD its just that if i had to pick one it would be Shige but beside him its Ryo, Yamapi, Tegoshi. but Massu and Koyama are great too I LOVE UCHI TOO XDDDDDDDD

Haha.. I love my cousin.. some exclusiiiiiiveness. I'm not sure if this is 100% true, but it's floating around on Japanese webs.
The regular edition of the single will have 6 different covers, with rotating positions of the members. Doesn't that just justify the fact that the single is cheaper than the others? BUY ALL 6 YA'LL!! LOL. This kinda sounds like KAT-TUN's debut single, yeah? =_=

YEAH........... I have already ordered my limited and regular editions, but my cousin said she would buy the other 5 if 'tis be true... sweeeet. She ordered me the NEWS calendar also.. for FREE, not 40 bucks.. hahaha.. muhhahah.. xD

^
I heard that rumour too, but if the regular single has 6 different covers, shouldnt they sell it like by member?? because K8 Kanfuu was sold like that 8 different covers sold by member you can pre order ryo if you want others can pre order Yoko.

OR ARE THEY SELLING JUST REGULAR SINGLE AND THEN WHO EVER GETS WHO EVER OMGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG I SHOULD BUY 6!!!! I SHOULD GET A SHIGE COVER WTF

But KATTUN had ABCDEF sold seperately like Real Face A, Real face B, but you dnt know whos A whos B or C. but NEWS only has 1 regular O_O

hie.....new NEWS fans here.....
i like Ryo!!!!wuhuhuhuh...
because of 1 litre of tears, i'm obsessed with Ryo now!!!muahahah...
he's so so s freaking KAWAIIIIIIIIIII!!!!!
i dlded their Cherish Mv..man..ryo's so cute thereeeeeee....
other members are really cute too..
^^Shiget^, the 2nd guy from the left!!!i like him too...he's so cuteeee..what's his name??
but i'm kinda confused now...
how many members are there in NEWS??
at first i saw there's 8..then now 6...??

In Shiget^'s signature you mean? the second guy from the left is Koyama Keiichiro.. ^^

In the VERY beginning, NEWS started with 9, but one left Mori something his name was. Then there was 8 for 1.5 years.. then Uchi got suspended in July 2005, and Kusano in early 2006.
Currently, there are 6 active members, but Uchi and Kusano are still considered NEWS members although their status is "trainee". It's your judgement to consider NEWS as a six-member group or eight. (:

I was going to preorder the Limited Ed. @ yesasia, but the DVD is Region 2. Does anyone know what DVD players can play that? Is it the ones in asia only? I really want it! And I must preorder before the price goes up! I couldn't afford their Touch Album- $26.99 so expensive...

Wah... I wonder if the Spring Con. included is the one where YamaP takes off his shirt *drools*.

^
DVD region 2 can only be played by these countries: Europe, including France, Greece, Turkey, Egypt, Arabia, Japan and South Africa. ^^;; but in the computer i think you can change the regions, except that you can watch these on your DVD players if wanna get the Taiwan versions (i dont know if theyre releasing their versions) Taiwan version is Region 2.

Not sure LMAOOOO but maybe because Hadashi No Cinderella is being played in the encore part where Kei and P remove their shirts ROFLMAOOOOOOOO but il ask my friend because she watched both sendai concerts for the spring con ^^;;

yokemun the doctor already answered your inquiries LMAO

but here since you like kei:



edit.//





yatta ne? Most likely on SCP they will have a Sayaendou and Hoshi Wo Mezashite medley too ^^;; omgosh im soo excited ^^;;

minna remember Feb 16, ITS ALREADY NEXT WEEK XDDDDDDD

Yay, Shiget^...

I just checked the music station and came here.. LOL.
NEWS AND ARASHI!! My favorites xD

Uchi and Kusano will be backed?

hey guys, there's someone on LJ who may be (emphasize on the "may be") going to NEWS concert so she may be able to buy concert goods for anyone who's interested. also since i don't know her i'm going to say that i don't know if she's reliable or not but yea if you want the stuff i guess you gots to take the chance. link below to lj.

ok so i have a question, what's a Clear File, a Phamphlet, and Original Photo Set? also look at the price of the uchiwa. it's only 500 yen...so that's like only $4.11 U.S. dollars. is it really that price? i thought it was more.

concert goods:
1. Pamphlet - 2000 yen
2. Jambo Uchiwa (6 types) - 500 yen each
3. Poster (group/individual: 7 types) - 800 yen each
4. Clear file (group/individual: 7 types) - 500 yen each
5. Shopping Bag - 700 yen
6. T-shirt - 2500 yen
7. Face Towel - 1800 yen
8. CD case - 1200 yen
9. Sticker - 800 yen
10. Original photo set (group/individual: 7 types) - 600 yen each
11. Johnnys pen light (with strap) - 1300 yen

as long as you have a dvd player that plays all regions then it should be ok. i think most american dvd players don't play all region. i have a karaoke dvd player that is all region....shinsonic.

I wanna know what the shirts look like, because I want to buy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Unfortunately, my cousin didn't get the ticket to the conert ;-;
BUT she's going to go to Yokohama anyways to buy the concert goods.. LOL
You know what that means.... SHOPPING FOR ME!... man.. I need to save money for my trip.. but gahhhhhhh...

A clearfile is basically a plastic folder looking thing that has the member's picture in it and on the other side, it'll usually have concert's logo and the member's name. The pamphlet is.. well, a pamphlet. Sorry, hard to explain~ The pamphlet has the member's photos in it and interviews and stuff like that. But the pamphlets aren't small, they're pretty big than what you might think a pamphlet is. An original photo set is a set of four photos from either the pamphlet photoshoot or the live concert, depending on which one you're getting (if you want an example, I could show you pictures of my original photo sets I have of Kanjani8)

Sorry if I cant explain this all very well

Yamapi is hot! -puts on sunscreen-

kusano_moles oh i loved to see your photoset of k8. is that set you have pics of the concert or from the pamphlet.

i can't decide if i should buy more uchiwas (other members other than ryo and yamapi since i already ordered them), a pamphlet, or photoset of NEWS and Ryo. i'm sure shipping may be killer. the gal that is buying is from singapore.

also wanted to ask if anyone has a ryo poster from any of the concerts that he's been in. i'm thinking of getting one but i just wanted to see an example.

DR......THANK YOU!!!!!!!!kekkekeekek..

shiget!!thanks for the pics....indeed...he's real cute.....
but ahhh...afta goin through all the 47 pages of Ryo's thread...i'm in love with him now!!!!!
he's so so so cuteeeeeeeee~~~!!
thanks again everyone!!!

well i decided to go and order je goodies from another person/site.

http://shop.j-amnos.net. it's a forum where they are selling JE (and other japanese artists) stuff. also they take request. i just placed a request myself. if it works out i may just order from them from now on.

Wow.. it's really expensive. They're charging soo much when the exchange rate is pretty low for the USD users.
The pamphlet is 2000yen.. the site sells it for 30 bucks without shipping? o_O hopefully that's everything included.

I wanna goooo to the concert!!!

BOOM!! BOOM!! POWER IS OUT!!!!!!!!!!!! IT ROCKZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ I LOVE THE SONG BECAUSSE SHIGE HAS SOO MUCH LINES XDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD

where where where ? i wanna listen to it ^^
