More of shoppings arrived~! <3

How do I love when my sister is waking me up shouting "Your order arrived!!" *laughs*
I'm sure a lot of you have it already, but I wanted to write review anyway (^^) It took me a while because I had other expenses, but I finally got my Kurosagi Official Guidebook!!
I LOVE IT SO MUCH!!!!!

I though I'll scan it after I get it but it's too difficult. Most of all book is put together with glue, so if I open it too wide it might break. Also paper is a kind where finger prints are VERY visible. For that I had to ask my mom to get me from work special gloves, usually used by dentists and doctors *laughs* Now at least I can touch and read it as much as I want ;D
I'm such a freak when it comes to things like that (^^);; All my original CDs have foil on them and I played each maybe once or twice only (to put track to mp3 and scan booklets). Same with Pi's Anan (still in foil). I can't stand to see finger prints on any of my goods XP

These are the only bad points in this book, rest is pure love~ (^^)

Book is divided in 3 parts:
#1 Photo Comic Kurosagi - A comic made with photos from movie. Have also some dialogs from movie (^^) But not full movie, it stops at some point so it won't spoil watching.


"Yoshida, you cut your hair?"
"It's Yoshikawa, it's not your business."

#2 Making of Kurosagi - A lot of information about movie, like cast and places. Also special interviews with Yamapi and Maki!! (^o^) With little photo session attached, I love these pics (*___*)






#3 The World of Kurosagi - Starting with test! You can see who (from movie characters) you resemble the most ;) I didn't make it yet (^^);;
Also a lot of other info connected with movie, like reviews of manga and drama episodes.



It's definitely worth the money!
I know movie is already on net and even subbed, but I decided I'll wait with watching it until DVD release (^^) I want first experience to be good ;)
Oh yeah, that reminds me ProDai SP is coming out soon~ Can't wait already!!

I'm also trying to catch up on older CDs while I still have a chance. I can't forgive myself I didn't get Sayaendou from YesAsia while it was still available (T_T) Not to mention it's just frustrating how hard to get are older singles... Why can't they make a re-print or something (T_T)
Along with a book I also got these 2 (+ Tofu Mini *cute*):

I had Limited Edition of Hoshi wo Mezashite, but need both (*_*)

I was so surprised when I checked YA today, Limited Edition of Aiaigasa is already sold out! So fast!! It's still about 20 days till release, right!

Aiaigasa PV + singles scans

My SUMMER TIME finally arrived!! They send it out already on 4th May, but because of stupid Polish post fighting for more money the delay was this huge. It took 15 days!! (T_T)
And what made me almost shouting nooooo! was a tiny booklet. What the... are they trying to do the same thing as Arashi?! I want NEWS to have regular booklets with loads of photos~!!! Please don't stop it (;_;)
Aside from this, Summer Time is definatelly my number one single now (^____^) All songs have so cute (ok, "liar" is kind of emo, but nvm). When listening to it, I really feel summer already~!

I was looking for excuse to make another post and this one came out quite big (^^);;
First of all, PV for new Tegomassu single is out!!! It's so sweet~ playing in Gods, or maybe cupids? *laughs*
Whaaa~ I'm glad I already ordered the single *hyper*

Here's mine and my sis collection (^^)

I have them attached everywhere! To my mobile, bag and keys XD

2005 NEWS spring concert ending

I thought of what next I can upload from what I have on my drive (^^);;
These 2 fancams of Kirameki no kanata he, an 2005 Spring Concert ending comes from nomanymore.blogspot.com
They show things you usually don't see on official videos, like Koyama behind camera, Uchi pulling up his pants or gossiping with Pi about fans XD
It's really cute and worth seeing (^^) Whole clip is cut in 2 smaller parts.

Yesterday I was watching in tv woman's volleyball Poland vs. Japan. It was live broadcast from Japan. All the time my sis was looking for Hey!Say!JUMP members, and said she saw them once, but could as well hallucinating *laughs* Well, according oto JE website they're on games since yesterday, but I doubt our tv will ever show them :(
BUT! They songs were played during every technical break (^^) Also there was one girl holding a sign saying "Hey!Say!JUMP". It was pretty amazing~! To know Johnny's are so close!! I wonder if NEWS was brodcasted here the same way~

I didn't ahd time to download the subbed videos so I watch catching up on them last night. I was so shocked to see NEWShFAN subbed GRAPEVINE (Budou no Ki)!!!!!
Grab it here!!

I posted chinese subbed version before (here). I was waiting a year for this project and it's finally released~!! It's even more touching subbed. I jumped to the end today to see the letter part and cried 2 tissues already. No matter how many times I watch it, it's always making me cry buckets. NEWShFAN guessed Yamapi was at the same stage of his life as a character he's playing, and she was right. Pi cried even when her read the script!! Later I found transation of Yamapi's review on Hadaka no Johnny's Forum

You know, this is a bit late because I always forget to write about it, but I suddenly realized who's the guy playing with Pi in Toshiba CMs! *laughs*
Tamura Masakazu played famous detective Furuhata Ninzaburo. Yamapi even did his immitation in ProDai! When Kenzo was trying to hide from Rei his missing button *laughs*
Subbed by Love Song



Also Tegoshi was trying his immitation in old Domoto Kyoudai with NEWS from 2004.05.09
Somehow after I upload the part on blogger, the voice is delayed, sorry for that!
Subbed by BnS



I was throwing again pics from my mobile to laptop (^^)
I already feel summer~! I live in a town, but the are is really "on the edge". Sometimes I think it's the most relaxing place I've lived in. Here's a view I made minutes ago from my balcony

And in the evening, my neightborhood seen from fields:

On a walk with my dogs:

And other random pics from my garden, starting from blossoming apple tree :)

Sunrise and sunset around my home and on the way to work.

And at the end, my dog watching Yamapi when I'm sitting on my bed, chatting with ~mao~ *laughs*

re-open!! j-dramas reviews

I'm baaaack~!
I decided to re-open KenKen again and run it just the way I used to (^^)
Recently it became too much of a upload page than a blog...
I hope I can continue it the old way~
今からよろしくお願いします。

So the LJ feed for KenKen should be working again.

I fixed YesAsia links. I can't believe all LE of NEWS CDs are already sold out! I was buying Hoshi wo Mezashite in September 2007, half a year after release it was still avilable. But now CDs are disappearing even before release. But I guess it's a good sign because it means more people is buying original goods (^^)

I also added more recent links:

Otakara Photo & Episode NEWS Kiseki -2005-2008

Aiaigasa (Normal Edition)(Japan Version)

Aiaigasa (SINGLE+DVD)(First Press Limited Edition)(Japan Version)

Because there wasn't much going on around Pi, I could catch up on few dramas I wanted to see (^^)
First, Nya! released first episode on Osen with Uchi. They even did it in two different resolutions, icluding 1280x720! Thank you guys!!! (^O^)
Honestly, I'm still stuck after Isshun no Kaze ni Nare 2nd episode and don't know when I'll finish it because drama is boring. But I'll continue Osen, it's pretty funny! Check for yourself at the part I cut off (^^)

Handa Sen is the "okami" (proprietress) of a long-standing restaurant in one of the lower parts of Tokyo. Though she is normally airheaded and loves to drink, she has an impressive mastery of a wide range skills, from cooking to ceramics to calligraphy. While the drama follows various events surrounding the restaurant, one of the series' highlights is its illustration of Japanese food and culture.

Second drama is Hokaben. Althrought Candypop released only 1st episode subbed till now, I saw it up to 3rd ep. RAW.

Domoto Akari is an idealistic lawyer who wants to "rescue the weak." She joins a large law office, though she is assigned to a lowly department whose only other member is her boss, who was transferred there after making a mistake during a case.

from DramaWiki

Of course drama is centered on Ueto Aya, but Shige's appearing quite often as well. He makes me laugh everytime. His style and the way he's walking is so obviously like an idol and not a lawyer at all *laughs*
It's not a drama I would highly recommend, but if you have time and love Shige, you can see it (^^);;

I thought I won't watch Gokusen3 because I'm not into juniors, but since SARS subbed it then why not try it (^^);;
Theme didn't change and it's pretty predictable what will happen, but I still enjoy it (^^) And I was so shocked to see Miura Haruma as one of class leaders!! (*O*) I love this guy since I watched Koizora, he's amazing~!

But seeing he's only 18yo, I feel old myself (T_T)

The other two don't have any connection with Johnny's, but they're super funny and I like them a lot (^^)
Zettai Kareshi (Absolute Boyfriend) I first read as a manga and loved it a lot!! I hoped they would make it into anime, but I never dreamed they will turn it into drama!!
They changed storyline and it's no longer story of a high school girl, but a grown up office lady. But the rest is pretty similar (^^)
Riko, shy girl who's unlucky with her lovelife, is buying herself a robot lover who's looking exactly like a human being.

Zettai Kareshi at DramaWiki
Get it from DAddicts

Aibu Saki (who's playing Riko) have quite a history with JE. First she was rumored to be dating Ryo-chan, they starred n 2 dramas together: Ganbatte Ikimasshoi! and Attention Please. Later she was like a break in Abiru rumors, after someone supposedly saw her on a date with Yamapi. They were on a boat together. I've heard some fans even accepted they relationship! But they haven't been seen together since then. And now she's dating Nagase Tomoya from Tokio, they were even spotted toghether:

Well, she's cute so I can forgive (^^);;

And finally, the last one I wanted to recommend, Hotaru no Hikari.

Hotaru works for a famous interior design company. It's a glamorous job but Hotaru's private life is totally the opposite of glamorous. She lives alone, and when she isn't working she's mostly lazing about her rented house in training wear. She's not interested in men. In fact, she isn't interested in anything. "I'd rather lay around than fool around," is her motto.

Her landlord is a bar owner, and one day his son, who has just separated from his wife, comes to inspect the rental property, not knowing that someone is living there. He is shocked at the mess, but not as shocked as Hotaru. He turns out to be her boss, Takano.

from DramaWiki

I watched it streamed online from anzv.tv. I didn't know Ayase Haruka can be so good and funny in comedy drama. I was crying with laugher seeing her rolling on the floor, sleeping under newspaper or getting paralised when getting mail from her crush.
I have to admit I'm so much like her in this drama *laughs*
To connect her with Yamapi, some of you might remember her from drama Sore wa, Totsuzen, Arashi no you ni..., where she was playing Pi's childhood friend.

*sigh* that was a long post! Forgive me spamming (^^);;

Best Artist 2006

I had to recharge myself, so I took few lazy days and did nothing except for sleeping, sunbathing, drinking beer and watching dramas, feels so good~ (^^)
I still continue, but I'm going to work in 4 hrs so I should be fine (sober) by that time :P

I've been thinking about uploading the recent appearances, but since they were already uploaded and even subbed, I won't do it. Unless someone request :)

For Utaban please go to yamaperfection's journal
Althrough she's worried the talk part it's not everything, it is all that was aired. Koyama and Shige brought they things and you can see them on the table, but it wasn't shown at all :(

For hardsubs of Utaban, MS and Osama no Buranchi, please go to NEWShFAN journal. She's always doing amazing job in fast subbing all recent appearances (^^)

I uploaded something I digg out from old torrents on jpopsuki. Whole show had 2GB and only 1 seeder coming from time to time, so it took me a week to get this video, but finally finished today~!

Best Artist 2006 in Yokohama Arena 2006.11.29.
I cut out only a part with Pi. I'm surprised I haven't seen it uploaded before, because it's really nice performance!!
Pi appeared together with KAT-TUN and Tackey & Tsubasa. It was like a JE medley, starting with Pi singing Daite Seniorita, later doing short Seishun Amigo dance with Kamenashi and introducing KAT-TUN with Bokura no machi de. Right after was Tackey & Tsubasa with VENUS, in the middle of the song Pi together with KT did the backdance! =D
The file is pretty big, so it might take me some times before I can finish uploading, sorry.

There were also other JE groups: Kinki Kids (including solos of Tsuyoshi and Koichi), Arashi and Tokio. But they showed up among others artists (OtsukaAi, Koda Kumi, Orange Range, Glay, Exile, Kobukuro, B'z...)

I had some JE shop pics from this performance, so I thought I'll upload them as well (^^)
