Arashi opens ARASHI LAND in Hokkaido this summer

According to what was sent to us earlier tonight, they will officially announce tomorrow about opening of the place where anyone can feel Arashi’s atmosphere freely anytime. Arashi have planned this project in return for their fans who made it possible for them to celebrate their gorgeous 10th anniversary. After run-up of more than one year, the construction is going to be finished before long. So it seems like they have finally decided to announce this confidential project.

ARASHI LAND is composed of the theme zones which are produced by each members.

Aiba Masaki zone: zoo with usable systems from ‘Masaki.com’
Matsumoto Jun zone: amusement park which features tremendous roller-coasters as a main ride
Sakurai Sho zone: safety inspected rental boat made of paper, salt and so on
Ohno Satoshi zone: fishing pond where even red sea bream and bonito can be found
Ninomiya Kazunari zone: utterly original game arcade (includes everything even the game soundtracks)

It is said that other features such as futsal ground, karaoke with petit-lifter and petit-truck and even a belt conveyor restaurant of familiar food at Shukudai-kun are also under construction. We only know the site is in Hokkaido, but the access seems to be considerably bad because they said it takes one hour by bicycle from nearest railway station. Therefore Arashi seems to be enthusiastic to build the hotel near the ARASHI LAND at any cost by their 15th anniversary. However, they said the problem is Ohno Satoshi insists that the hotel must be built by Arashi themselves.

As I am afraid this project will be quite problematic, I will interview about them in detail at tomorrow’s press conference.

Happy April Fools!! LOL Were you fooled? Not I this time , I recalled reading something similar last year, but still had a good laugh while skimming through this one. It’s a wonderful joke ne, wish it were true though or I would be the first in line to order tickets. Maybe the boys can open something like this for their 20th anniversary along with conquering space. LOL

Arashi comments on their 11th year

Arashi (嵐) is celebrating their 11th anniversary this year. In addition to music, they are busy with dramas, CMs and variety shows as well. In the last episode of the drama “Tokujou Kabachi!! (特上カバチ!!)” starring Sho Sakurai (櫻井翔) which to be aired on March 21st, the leader Satoshi Ohno (大野智) will appear as a guest. One day before the shooting, during the break of the Arashi regular TV show, he practiced lines with Kazunari Ninomiya (二宮和也) and made one shot pass.

Each member shared their own thoughts on the group on the occasion of 11th anniversary.

Satoshi Ohno: “I am happy that we have received a lot of greeting at the 10th anniversary. However, Arashi hasn’t changed basically.”

Masaki Aiba (相葉雅紀): “I will cherish everything from now and hope to express my passion to everyone.”

Jun Matsumoto (松本潤): “I want to learn something from last past ten years and show a brand new side of Arashi in this year.”

Kazunari Ninomiya: “No matter being happy or bitter, all five of us will take and move forward together. This is Arashi.”

Sho Sakurai: “‘They seem happy, they are doing something silly.’ I will be happy if everyone will feel the same with us.”

They were asked about what they wanted to do most.
Matsumoto: “I simply want to return to the start and straighten up everything.”
Aiba: “Diving. I want to see the world deep under the ocean.”
Ninomiya: “I want to try to compose game music, seriously.”
Ohno: “I want to travel around the world.”
Sakurai: “I want to review the drama of 80’s.”

Obviously, deep bond among members can be seen from their comment, as well as their challenge spirit.

From Music Japan Plus

Nino is sweet ne, helping out Riida with his lines for the guest appearance on Tokujou Kabachi!! Also, Neener + game music would be a sure win, I would definitely buy it.

So Oh-chan wants to travel around the world, I really hope he comes to the US. We welcome him and his cruiser at anytime.

Kyaa~~Jun-kun should definitely wear more sleeveless shirts now! XO The choreography was a tad different than Utaban’s, both of which I adore. Love the bright and happy atmosphere, the boys appear to be having so much fun. Wasn’t the Yama pair kawaii when they formed a ♥? I had watched it a few times, each brought endless smiles.
