Aashi's 応援 Performance

[karened]

What an apt song.

A very simple set, simple clothes, simple performance.

 

But I love it.



Everyday, everything is (literally) smeared with mud, but it's too late to worry now.



Let's aim for that shining door together.







Let's take a step out and start all over, however many times.



Those feelings that won't vanish are right here.



No matter when it is, let's stand up once more.

.

With all our might.

Such an apt song.
Nino's ability to make people's heart wrench with his expressions, Ohno's very simple yet sincere expression, and the other three's effort to portray a 'we can do it' atmosphere.



I think the simplicity of it all made the performance convincing as an attempt to cheer people up, and not a promotion gimmick (not that Arashi will resort to such things). It's just so sincere, just the boys trying to convey their feelings and hopes. I felt the warmth radiating filtering through. <3

I hope this brought some courage to their fellow countryman!

On a fangirling note, Ohno's hair is so short! Kaibutsu-kun? And Nino, my gosh. I. Loved. His. Hair. evenmorethanJun'sinthere.
