LET'S ASK ARASHI
Who's the most perverted member of Arashi?
Aiba: Sho.
Nino: Sho.
Jun: All of us are perverts... But Sho seems to be the most perverted one.
Sho: It's not just me. All Arashi members are high level perverts.
Ohno: We're all average perverts.
What are you going to do if you became a woman for 1 day?
Jun: I'll go to a cafe in Omotesando. I'll just check how hot I'd be as a woman.
Nino: I'll get a skinhead and walk around Shibuya wearing a dress and then ask people how I look.
Ohno: I'll seduce men.
Sho: I'll seduce the other members.
Aiba: I'm fine like this. I can't picture myself as a woman.
What do you wear to sleep?
Sho: Shirt and trunks.
Aiba: Shirt and shorts - the basketball shorts I've been using since high school.
Nino: It's hot during the summer so I just wear pants.
Jun: Shirt and shorts. Speaking of which, I just bought a new futon and a pillow.
Ohno: It depends. Sometimes I just wear a pair of pants, and sometimes I wear a pair of pants!?
** Riida's so funny
What do you think would you be doing right now if you weren't a member of Arashi?
Ohno: Huh!? I don't know.
Sho: Organizing group dates... I'd probably be a good-for-nothing college student who's taking the same course again after flunking it.
Aiba: I'd probably be a college student. Campus life sounds fun. I'll attend other universities. Huh!? What am I saying!? I just want to know what college life is like.
Nino: I'd be a college student.
Jun: I'd prob'ly be walking around Shibuya with a girl, attending group dates, asking for a girl's number... something like that.
Who has the best fashion sense among the members?
Aiba: Jun. He has a lot of clothes.
Ohno: I agree.
Jun: It's hard to compare cuz we all have different tastes. If we were to talk about who has the most number of clothes, then that would be me.
Sho: Aiba. I think his personal taste for clothes is good.
Nino: Ohno. He may not look that fashionable to you but he's a bit particular about the clothes he wears.
If you were stranded in a deserted island, who among the members would you want to be with?
Jun: Sho or Ohno. Sho's the type who encourages and motivates other people. Ohno seems to be the type who'd adjust easily to isolation.
Aiba: Sho. He'd manage our food supply.
Ohno: Sho. I think, together, we can still laugh and have fun even if we're stranded in an island.
Nino: Aiba just because...
Sho: Yonehana Tsuyoshi. His survival instincts is better than any of us.
How do you think can you attract the audience's attention during your concerts?
Sho: I look at their faces. Seriously, I can even tell who watched our Spring concert twice. I think we don't need flashy stage costumes just to attract their attention.
Ohno: Hang light bulbs all over our bodies.
Aiba: Wear swimsuits? I'm sure it won't be hard for the audience to find Sho.
Nino: Does it really matter? Isn't having fun together enough?
Jun: Wouldn't we attract more attention if we all wore the same thing?
What will you do if your agency decides to add another member - a female member - to Arashi?
Aiba: I'll give the princess a welcome hug.
Ohno: I'll say "Oh! Hello!".
Nino: Nothing. There are a lot of women in our staff so it's not that big of a deal.
Sho: If she entered now, it'll be upsetting. Arashi's doing quite fine with just its 5 members. I'm sorry to say this but having an additional member may not work for us.
Jun: I'd be more thoughtful and be like "Which packed lunch do you want? You can choose.". Ladies first.
At what age do you want to get married?
Nino: When the right time comes.
Aiba: Not too young, not too old. Late 20s maybe.
Ohno: 23. No, 26 I guess? I want to be a young dad. I want to settle down before I turn 30.
Sho: I haven't thought about it yet.
Jun: Once I find the right woman.
**Ohno's already 30 and Aiba's already in his late 20s...
Is it true that Arashi can eat 10 sets of packed lunch in one meal?
Nino: No it's not!
Aiba: We only get 1 packed lunch each. But we do eat snacks afterwards.
Jun: Sho's got the biggest apetite among all the members. Whenever we eat out, he always orders an extra dish.
Sho: I used to eat 2 sets but that's in the past. I only eat 1 now.
Ohno: I don't eat a lot. I also watch the calories I'm taking in.
Let's ask Sakurai Sho!
A regular student and a very loving son and brother - Sakurai Sho shares his thoughts about family and school life. When asked, he'd reply after a pausing for a few seconds but whatever he says afterwards always makes sense.Q1 I've become a bit rebellious lately and I've stopped playing with my brother and sister. If I stayed this way, a gap might develop between us. What should I do?A1 There was a time when I also felt that way. But don't worry. Your family will always be there for you no matter what. Our family? We get along well. Just the other day, we went out to eat at an Italian restaurant. Q2 Is it true that you fixed your sister's computer? Cool!A2 No it's not. I just made the kana input romaji. It's not really that hard.Q3 When did you get that piercing? It must've hurt!A3 June. It was before the baseball match I think. I was on anesthesia so I didn't feel anything at all.Q4 Is it true that your brother calls you "Sho-san"?TN: The suffix "san" is rarely or never attached to a family member's name when referring to a member of their own family. For me, attaching "san" would lessen the level of intimacy because the suffix adds formality and sometimes implies superiority.A4 It's really "Sho-chan". But he can't pronounce "chan" correctly so it comes out as "san". We're not that kind of family either. I hope you won't misinterpret this.Q5 What word do you say all the time?A5 "Buttonderu". It means "Cool!". Like when I see a funny guy I'd say "That guy's buttonderu!".Q6 Since when did you become a rapper? Don't tell me you were born saying "Check it out!".A6 I was already a rapper even before I was born. I was kicking in my mom's tummy while saying "Yo! In the house!"... No. Seriously, I became one only when I became a member of Arashi.Q7 I'm a second year middle high school student and I'm currently having a hard time juggling my studies and club activities. How do you think should I manage my time?A7 I think it's impossible to do those 2 things everyday. How about concentrating on your studies before your exams and then concentrate on your club activities only when you don't have any upcoming tests? I also bring my textbooks to work but I can't study while working so I just focus real hard during exam week.Q8 I find it hard to follow your rap's rhythm. Any suggestions on how I can rap like you?A8 During recording, I follow a beat they call "Click". But if you want to rap my part, you don't have to rap it the way I do. You'll enjoy it more if you did it your way.
Let's ask Ohno!
"I'm the leader alright, but I don't do anything." Ohno humbly says all the time. But every time he gives an advice to his groupmates, he'd warmly respond starting with the phrase "If it was me, I'd...". Without a doubt, he is Arashi's reliable leader!Q1 Have you ever gotten angry at anyone?
A1 Nope. I've never yelled at anyone either. If there's something I don't like, I settle it by myself before I get angry.
** He's still like that!!! There's this corner in Arashi ni Shiyagare where they air out their concerns and their guests help them out by giving them pieces of advice. Ohno's problems were always about how he gets irritated by Jun's way of rubbing his chopsticks together and the way Jun steals his seat in the dressing room but he just can't scold the younger guy. LOL **
Q2 What happened to "Half and Left"? Aren't you guys going to release a CD?
*Half and Left = unit consisting of Ohno and Nino. I guess that's the earlier version of Ohmiya. **
A2 The unit's not active anymore. So we're not going to release any CDs. I totally forgot about it. I just remembered when you asked (LOL). I guess it's time for Nino and I to team up again.
Q3 What happened to "Ohno's Tsukkomeday"?
A3 The last time I made a wise crack was on the 6th. So I decided to make the 6th of every month "Ohno's Tsukkomeday" but... I wasn't able to do it again.
Q4 Why do you dance so good? What's your secret?
A4 Of course, I practice. But watching other dancers is also very helpful. I study by watching videos.
Q5 My stomach's always grumbling and I'm worried that it'll be a huge problem during the exams. Do you know any solutions to that?
A5 I have experienced that. My stomach grumbled in the middle of an exam. I was like "Ugh... what should I do if they think I farted!?". I know exactly how you feel! Why not train your abdominal muscles? Or go to the hospital?
Q6 Is it true that Arashi's breaking up?
A6 It's my first time hearing about it! What should I do if we break up!? Tell me!
Q7 You're always quiet. Do you find talking that tiresome?
A7 No it's not because of that! I'm just a good listener. That's why.
