So many new shows to feed my fangirl needs. This is good, very good. I'm not really into V6 but the premise of their show sounds interesting. Also, I can't wait to see Kisumai as ADs....I have high expectations for them. Congrats to Massu for not just one but TWO new tv shows. It's going to be great exposure for news and the shows are in good tv slots. Fans gonna be excited for their massu fix!

In other news....Arashi's new single is so unfortunately named. It's not "guts." but "GUTS!". It's for Nino's new drama and I guess it fits the theme of the drama. But the first impression of the song title I got was.....Why the heck is Arashi making a song about intestines?! Lol! It makes much more sense when I think of it in more of a "That guy's got guts!" kind of way.

Signing off with a dance tutorial from A.B.C.-Z.....I give it FIVE STARS! XD

Johnny's Here We Are·

Okamoto Keito the English Gentleman

When I first got into HSJ, I didn't really notice Keito. He didn't have much of a presence... (I'm sorry Keito fans please don't hurt me, lol). What I really mean is that he was always and even now kind of is in the backdrop of things. He usually dances on the side or at the back and doesn't really say much in the tv appearances. But as I got to know HSJ better and in turn, got to know Keito better...I discovered that  he is a really sweet, gullible, and really innocent guy. XD

es.drama

Hikaru and Yamada seem to pick on him for various reasons like his dance skills. Well Keito might not a long junior history like the rest of the members but his hard work makes up for it. One of the first things that I remember about him is that he cried when he couldn't get the dance moves right.  He said his stomach hurt during their practice to excuse himself and cried. He's gotten stronger but still is pretty sensitive...like the time when he cried after he and Yama fought. XD He's so cute.


YAMADA VS KEITO by letsayjump

His really straight forward demeanor is just so...it really makes you want to root for him. Even more so, when people just know him as the son of Okamoto Kenichi, which would be fine to some extent but it'd be better if he is recognized for his own talents. And Keito is soooo talented! He can play the guitar well. He's studying at Sophia University while juggling JE activities.

Keito's known as the only member who can communicate in English and one of the few people in JE that can do so. (But sometimes his grammar is off and I don't understand what he's trying to say.) I do appreciate it when he speaks in English and hope he uses this skill more in the future whether in team or solo activities. He mentioned he could do English interviews (do I sense a future newscaster?). Also, it's great when he can communicate with fans overseas in concerts, HS7's radio program, and I even heard he responds to fan letters in English! I should write him one.

The best thing I like about Keito is his kindness. He's kind to everyone!! Yama and Yuto seem to praise him on that quite a bit. Everyone in JUMP seems to tease Keito but he just goes along with it. Such a good guy, lol. XD

He's talking a lot more and seems more at ease now. I think compared to the past, his personality shines through more in concerts...in pvs...in everything! He was always charming but I was late to realize that. :P Goes to show that there are always interesting things to discover about a person if you give them a chance.

HSJ at the Grammy's?! + Yuto and Nino's Drama

Edit: I found out that they actually did go to the Grammy's!!! 0_0 Whoa, that's so cool! 

Ok I am a really gullible person. I believe things pretty easily...like with the fake photo of Dai-chan smoking and Miyata's so-called cheating on Tama. So I've become more skeptical. But I really want to believe that Yamada, Daiki and Yuto went to the Grammy's. They did go to the US for dance lessons around that time and it really does look like them!!!!

THIS IS FREAKING INCREDIBLE!! I'm sorry to hear that they were bored but....it is awesome they got to go to such a cool event. I can't tell who they sat next to but the fact that they could see awesome actors, actresses, directors, producers at such a close range is pretty sick.

I'm hoping that more photos will come up....what if they were in the background of some photos? Imagine they're just casually talking to each other behind Ellen while she's smiling for the camera. I think my heart would explode...I'm barely managing the fact they (possibly) went to the Grammy's.

HeySayJump

Also, I totally forgot about Yuto's drama, Yowakute mo katemasu. Congrats, Yuto!!! He has been in lots of top notch dramas...Glad to see his acting career is going well. :) Nino's in the drama too so this probably means Yuto will appear in Arashi's tv shows. It'd be cool if he guest stars in VS Arashi. (Keito's ex-girlfriend is acting in the drama, too!) Yuto will be a baseball player...Speaking of which, Kame's going to be a baseball player in his new movie!


Whenever I watch this Arashi video, I laugh. It must hurt but Arashi's balloon popping methods are too funny. Please enjoy! XD (Not sure if I posted this video before....lol I'm getting forgetful about which videos I've posted.)

P.S. Jump also announced their new tour!!! Yay, this means more footage and fanservice....and maybe new songs! XD

That picture of him and Yuto is from a concert but which concert is it from? Do you know if there's any video clips of it? Thanks! ^_^

I think it's from their 2012 concert....I'm not 100% sure but pretty sure it's 2012. The picture is from tumblr, (link next to pic). Maybe you can message the tumblr user for more information about the picture? Sorry I don't have any video clips of it but I hope this cute clip of Yamada and Yuto will make up for it. XD

Takaki is my ichiban in HSJ, felt love with his cute face in Gokusen 3 which lead me to dig more info about him. I'm looking forward to his new dramas and yes I'm quite disappointed when his line in 2 new singles by hsj is really short and for the concert last year he did not perform alobe with the live band, his voice is husky and sexy, hope JE will look this matter more.

Btw thanx for this writing

I'm glad Takaki has such caring fans! Yes, I hope he'll get to sing more in future songs and concerts.
His voice.....oh my goodness, it's beautiful. (They really should give him more lines to sing) And I love it when he laughs! XD I think he's going to get more chances to shine this year (JE seems to be focusing on BEST more now). We gotta hang in there.

Thank you for reading! :D

I'm back from Hiatus...

Sorry I left without mentioning anything... It's been quite a while! Well, you can probably guess why I haven't been able to post anything since the beginning of February. (No, it's not entirely due to my laziness). School has been super busy and I got into the habit of not blogging. That's going to change! I'm going to post more hopefully.

While I was gone, so many things happened:

• Jin left Johnny's?!!!! 
• Ryuu graduated?!!! (plus other jrs...)
• Inoo's in another drama?! So is Yabu?!
• Yuto's long interview came out?!
• Some other things that I forgot... :P

derekwinnert

Starting off with Jin (who I can write an entire essay about him and JE and their whole management relationship)... I was really surprised to hear the news. It's always been my impression that if you're a johnny's, you're going to remain a johnny's for the rest of your life. And that's really wrong of me to think like that. People want to do different things and sometimes that will lead to a break up. A good break up will help both parties become stronger and better people. So to keep things short and simple, I'm pretty excited to see what Jin does with his career (especially if it involves him going overseas and doing more collabs with other artists).

Ryuuuuutaro...Everyone's little hamster has just graduated high school. What will he do next? Go to university? Get a job? Take a year off? Return to HSJ? The questions are endless and I really wish the last option will happen....but that's not my decision. I just hope we get some news on him. If he doesn't do any JE activities soon after graduation, then.......that will be my final closure. T_T

hey-say

CONGRATULATIONS TO YABU!!! I'm so happy he got a leading role! I've missed Yabu's acting~ He's going to be forensic scientist. The drama's supposed to be like CSI. 

I like CSI. I like Yabu. How can I not enjoy this drama? XD (Lots of things but I'm trying to be optimistic here..)

inookeifans

Congratulations to Inoo! Who knew he dyed his hair for a drama? If that's the case, then I hope he dyes his hair more often... lol. I quite enjoyed his acting in Dark System. Not bad, Mr. Kei, not bad at all.

(Yeah, Yutti! You go kick those insecurities away!!) XD Yuto's 1000 character interview came out and seriously those interviews need a warning sign. "Before you read this, you might need a box of tissues and prepare your heart for some serious feels". Lol, I didn't cry but I was very touched by Yuto's growth. Everyone noticed when Yuto and Yama switched positions for the "coveted" center. I just never realized how much Yuto was hurting in the past because I always see him smiling and being goofy these days. My appreciation for him went up 10000 levels. >.<

Here's a funny video of Marius' face getting hit by confetti. Hope it gets a laugh out of you! :D
