[NEWS] Arashi Won "Most Likeable Artist"! Who's the Most Likeable Member?



Music magazine "Oricon Style (オリ★スタ)" has conducted a survey on "Which male artist has the higher likeability". Popular group Arashi (嵐) won the 1st, bearing down all other artists such as Mr. Children or Masaharu Fukuyama (福山雅治). In the news program "Zoom-in!! Saturday(ズームイン!!サタデー)" on March 27th, Satoshi Ohno (大野智) and Masaki Aiba (相葉雅紀) talked about their likeability.

Ohno was asked about the reason of their likeability at the shooting scene of the drama "Kaibutsu Kun/怪物くん (lit. Little monster)", and he answered "Isn't it normal?" with Ohno-style. As to the question, "Which member of Arashi has won the best likeability?", Ohno said: "It is Aiba-chan, isn't it?" because Aiba has become more and more popular after playing the main role in the drama "My Girl (マイガール)".

On the other hand, Aiba was interviewed at another place with the question who was the most favorable member, "Honestly speaking, it is me (laugh). No, it's a joke. I'm joking." Aiba answered humorously. Then interviewer told Aiba that "Ohno-kun answered 'Aiba-chan' to the same question." Aiba was like "What?! Me? It's so embarrassing...Leader didn't say 'Me'??" It seems Aiba was quite confused with Ohno's response.

Arashi's new single "Troublemaker" was released on March 3rd and now has hit big nationwide. Their DVD "ARASHI Anniversary Tour 5×10" is scheduled to release on April 7th and is expected to take over the chart again.

[NEWS] Arashi's Sho Sakurai becomes a Cider Boy with Shonentai's Higashiyama!



Arashi (嵐) member Sho Sakuari (櫻井翔) will star in the new CM of Mitsuya Cider (三ツ矢サイダー) with Shonentai (少年隊) member Noriyuki Higashiyama (東山紀之). They attended the press conferment on March 15th. It is announced that Sakurai would play the main role in "Mitsuya Cider"'s CM titled "Cider boys", while Higashiyama would be in "Mitsuya Cider All Zero"'s CM titled "Evolution".

As the "junior" member of the same company, Sakurai said: "When I was in a car the other day, I saw Mr. Higashiyama, wearing a jersey, running with full speed in the street. And I though 'oh, that is Mr. Higashiyama's private life of the rumor.'" And Higashiyama responded tenderly with a little embarrassment: "You saw me!"

However, there is a similar scene in the CM with Higashiyama running, and he commented: "I showed myself. And I think human beings can grow without limitation."
"Mr. Higashiyama is always progressing with the age." said Sakurai with an admiring look.

In the chapter "Cider Boys" of Sakurai, Arashi's new song titled "To be free" will be used to match the refreshing and clear image of Mitsuya Cider. The instrumental version will be used in the chapter "Clear Quality" as well. The new CM has been on air from March 16th. Check it out!

[NEWS] Arashi's Jun Matsumoto Guested on Shun Oguri's Radio Program!



At the end of March, Shun Oguri (小栗旬) will graduate from the radio program "All Night Nippon (オールナイトニッポン)" on which he has been working from 2007. On this, Arashi's Jun Matsumoto (松本潤) announced suddenly: "If it is going to end, I'll go." and joined the live broadcast as a surprise guest. The two, who are good friends in private, had deep talk at night and showed an unspoken consensus with each other.

Their first encounter was at the shooting of "Gokusen (ごくせん)". They talked about the first impression on each other and became good friends. Later, they costarred "Hana yori Dango (花より男子)" and spent the whole night in the hotel at Narita airport because of the tight schedule. "I went to Jun's room. Really? In the hotel at Narita airport? Jun Matsumoto brought the whole volume of the comic of 'Hana yori Dango'. And, he said 'Shun, I think this scene is here. I want to read the whole comic, how do you think?' So we talked about like 'this man is doing this at this time...' (laugh)" It seems they talked about the performance at the sleepless night and evidently hit it off with each other.

After the live broadcast, Oguri indicated that he wanted to do something in return for his guesting. And it is said that Oguri's appearance on the drama "Smile (スマイル)" last year was a response to Matsumoto's request as well. Actually, they are not only good friends, but also good working partners as well. Let's look forward to their future collaboration.

[NEWS] Ohmiya for Super Mario Brothers Wii






New CM of Nintendo Wii Super Mario Brothers is Ohmiya unit, Kazunari Ninomiya and Satoshi Ohno. Web stream has been started. > However it’s Ohmiya, this is not about place-name! Arashi of popular Johnny’s group has fun nick names according member unit. Separating Arashi Kanji upper and lower to Yama 山and Kaze風, Satoshi Ohno and Sho Sakurai who are elder are called Yama and Masaki Aiba, Kazunari Ninomiya and Jun Matsumoto are called Kaze. One of such fun nick names, it seems the unit of Omiya and Ninomiya is called Omiya SK. This is very Arashi fans who cheers a chummy group. This is very peaceful way to cheer them.

CM of New Super Mario Brothers Wii that feels a sense of fun has started on air form 18. New CM today released with Ninomiya and Ohno is the concept of “you can play in this way.” Ninomiya who is good at game gives a tutorial on game technique to Ohno. 3 versions; “Speed clear”, “50 straight jump” And “Hip drop same time”. Ohno challenge Mario under the direction of Ninomiya. Ohno who can hardly do well depends on Ninomiya, “Let me do once more♪”And the aspect of Ninomiya show outrageous performance is also natural and good. Among them, at “Hip drop same time”, 2 speak “Ma, ri, o” and Ninomiya accidentally murmurs “Oh, I feel like just like bothers.” This lets you imagine everyday’s life of 2.

If you want to join them watching 2. You can see reference play and commentary. And see the section of “The title that Ninomiya-san and Ohno-san challenged” You must have feeling you’d enjoy game with Ohmiya Unit? This spring their show “Arashi no Shukudai-kun” and Sakurai starring drama “Tokujo Kabachi!!” will be over, but new variety show “Arashi ni shiyagare” and Ohno starring drama “Kaibutsu-kun” will start. And the play and movie are planned. So members will busy as ever. They must need a break doing game for once. I want to watch other members join, Sakurai, Aiba, Matusmoto and want to watch Mario CM that 5 support each other or interrupt shaking together. I wonder how Arashi could play Wii that is maximum number of players are 4.
