5 Days of Arashi – My Favorite Variety Show

I enjoyed all of Arashi variety show, they dominated my screen time when I began my journey back in 2008. It was everything Japanese then and if I found time, it was always with Arashi. I probably joined every fan translation group available out there. ๐Ÿ˜‚Thank you so much to all of them, I am forever grateful. Arashi was just pure entertainment, high-energy and simply fun to watch. Some times, I even learned a few things here and there. They were just being themselves and quite dorky. ๐Ÿ˜† However, my favorite among their gazillion shows is Mago Mago Arashi.

On this show, I love how two members were paired to play grandsons for a day for an elderly couple. It was pre-Hanadan days and they could just go out normally without being mobbed by fans. The elderly couples usually didn’t who they were and they just simply play their part, they were still very young back then.๐ŸŒฑ

I also loved whenever JunToshi (MatsuJun and Ohno-chan) appeared on screen together, they are my favorite pairing by the way. ๐Ÿ˜ This was super rare, only three times I believe, out of a total of 125 episodes for Mago Mago. It was always fun to watch them together. I adored their playful chemistry between with the oldest and the youngest member. I don’t remember when I starting shipping these two, just I love them together. Super cute! ๐Ÿฅฐ Hey, they are the only two members who still are not married yet ( maybe Oh-chan in secret who knows lol). I don’t mind in real life if they both of them got together, it will never happened, but one can dream. ๐Ÿ˜

I got to insert this…hehe.

Any who, I really hope that one day that Japan will release all of Arashi variety shows on whatever format they like, may it be Blu-Ray or DVD, I will definitely purchase to keep. Maybe for starters, have them available on streaming. Doki TV has a couple of episodes of Himitsu no Arashi-chan, I think they renamed it to Must Be ARASHI. This is a very good start, let’s keep our fingers crossed for more. ๐Ÿคž

I found a few Mago Mago Arashi online and still enjoy rewatching them at time. I hope more will be available soon. You can find them here.

ARASHI LIVE TOUR 2026 Livestream ticket

Yay, I just purchased my livestream ticket via FAMILY CLUB online!!!! ๐Ÿฅณ๐ŸŽ‰๐ŸŽŠ I kind of hesitated at first since it was 6,000 yen and wanted to wait to get the Blu-ray since that will be a hard copy that will last forever. But little old me forgot that the conversion rate between Yen and USD and so much cheaper now. ๐Ÿคฆ๐Ÿปโ€โ™€๏ธI came to a conclusion of why now, it will only be $39 and this will be the last and final chance.โณ It will be now or never and I pulled the plug.๐Ÿ˜† I just received my purchase confirmation (screenshot below), YATTA! ๐Ÿ™Œ I cannot wait and probably will try to wake up at 4:00 am EST for it. โฐ ๐Ÿ’ƒ๐ŸŽถ๐Ÿ’–

If anyone else wants to join, I recommend that you purchase it now to avoid any issues. I suggest you let your credit card company know about the foreign transaction to avoid it being declined. If anyone wants the details on how to purchase the ticket, go here.
