What's better than to start the new year with what we all love most?


Our beloved Arashi. Oh boy, I was pleasantly surprised when Nino did most of the talking instead of Sho (in his own words, the one who just does it, naturally).



Relieving him from his MC duties was a good idea, because it freed up his inner self to do things he really wanted. Like COPY Nino's signature wink. Go watch it. It's hilarious! You know the wink that Nino always gives to show how amazing he think he is, complete with the neck movement? HAHA COPYCAT Sho. And lol at Nino and Jun in this cap, for they were both pursing their lips. At Sho. hehe.


Why did they have to make Arashi perform OUTSIDE in the middle of Winter, on top of a building where wind is blowing from all directions? Why not just a studio? I don't know, but this rooftop set up is really pretty.


Stuck between melting (at Ohno) and laughing (at Aiba).


Ok, meltinged.


The background people are distracting!!! Only Arashi can make dancing such moves look all happy and cute.

 
Having had the attention stolen from them, Juntoshi plotted to get it back now!


And they succeed. They looked so happy! Go away, Nino! =P


Fine fine fine. You're amazing. Not as a s**-powerhouse, but a camwhore that Johnny-san would be proud of. The moment the camera changed, you turned to cast your powerful gaze at the new one! SUGOI!


Finally, let's end off with some Sho.
 


Sho waving to the sky (at the camera shooting from the top?) when the screen isn't showing that camera. Nino should be nice and share his camwhore tips with Sho. hehe....


Sho smiling. In an odd way.


Sho looking stupid.


Sho...looking stupid.

Don't get me wrong. I love stupid sho. He's so funny...I cannot imagine him as newscaster. I cannot!



Because I love the gap.

Like how the boys who cannot sing (very well), cannot dance (very well), have tons of footages showing embarrassing moments...

Can be super heroes helping to save (even if just a little) Japan's economy through tourism, sales and promoting optimism.


NUMBER 1 HERO OF NEW SALVATION

And I'm thankful for the slight quiver at the "zutto~" line at the end of Love Rainbow. It's LIVE! yay.

Wait, how could I forget to mention that I *heart* the EPIC-ness of YamaPair for wearing matching coats and soooo much Juntoshi in this medley!!

Silly dork antics dont get any better than this!!

Definitely! I watched the Kouhaku performance and it was.....normal. And normal is hardly what I know Arashi for! But I guess there are rules of conduct when you go on such shows ne.

Yup. Too much etiquette to observe for stick-in-the-muds Kouhaku. :P

While we're still on Kouhaku, Nakai's stumbling when he introduced his kouhais really surprised me!

And I thought Sho was bad for messing up badly when presenting Funky Monkey Babys..

They did?

*rushes off to find clips*

Off all people, Sho?

What about Aiba and Ohno hehehe

Yup. And we thought Jun was the most nervous one when it came to live presentations huh!?

Aiba had a few pauses (I think they refer to it as dead time for TV) but they werent that bad. Ohno rose to the occasion quite well! Sasuga Riida!! ^___^

hi :)

it must be weird to find a stranger commenting on your entry (i would). I was bored and found your post :)
during Jun introduction to Shuji to Akira, Nino were bunny hoping with bunny ears in the background. it was in a little box....I would pay to see him do it again!

I love their performance for JCD. ^^ They were so happy and dorky...♥

"What's better than to start the new year with what we all love most?"
Golden words!!!! ^_^ Really the best start of the new year. ^^

Haha, copycat Sho. XDD Yes, he awakened his inner self. XDDD I thought so, how can this 'boy' be a newscaster? XDDD But as you said, we love this gap. ^^

I can´t help, but I love their outfit for this performance. I really absolutely adore it. ♥ And the performance on top of NHK building is gorgeous!!! I was surprised that they didn´t shiver because of the cold, but I am really happy that they performed on the rooftop, because it was cool and I wished for one performance which would be similar to Pikanchi Double PV, but you are right it would be better during summer. XDD
And the lights all around make it really very nice. Really it took my breath. ♥____♥ Absolutely perfect!

Juntoshi was cute during Love Rainbow. XDDD They caught my attention as well. XDD I thought that they could sing LR for Kouhaku, therefore I am happy that they performed it for JCD. ^^
And Sho and Nino... XDDD

And I noticed that quiver too - woooow, it is live! ♥♥ Honestly I can´t say when they sing live and when not, therefore this made me sure that they can sing live very well!

Happy New Year! ^_^

I watched Nino's famous wink that Sho did, and just had to repeat it plenty of time XDDD
Oh, and that stupid dorky faces he made everytime they performed Troublemaker (in MSSL too) were sooo funnily dorky n sooo Sho-kun XDDDD I was susrprised but loving to see it again XDD

Even when our boys sing live, no one believes it that my friend and I would always go "Ah! They sound so good - it must be lip-syncing and that quiver? Psh! They must have inserted it into the music especially that Ohchan, no way he sings so well must be someone else's good voice he is lip-syncing to" LOL! Happy New Year~ I am so happy to get the warmness of our boys and pairings.
