大ちゃん、毎度あり。。。本当に！

number one, i don't know if the arashi coordinators changed, or if the original coordinators found their sense of fashion, but whatever it is, i am LOVING how they are dressing the guys lately. i thought i was going to die when i saw their clothes for love so sweet! omg i'm SO adoring it. the red looks REALLY good on them, and i think ba chan's outfit fits him PERFECTLY. not to mention his hair. omg...the whole covering one's eye BS...T___T it's so hot! i also liked that jun and ba chan shared the same colors...model couple! they all looked SO good, but my favorite outfit is ohno's & ba chan's! if i have one bad thing to say...jun's eyes are pretty as is. eye liner is not necessary.

i always always always wonder...what if ohno had gotten a job before arashi debuted? what if ba chan didn't have a passport? what if nino quit before they debuted? all of this always makes me wonder...what would have been? these are reasons enough that arashi is destined to be together, to be the group they are today, which makes me get all sentimental and thankful. especially thankful to johnny. x: i think he was fully aware that if he told ohno that he was going to debut ohno would have run. so without telling him he slowly pushed back into the spotlight with butais, and "lied" to him about "helping" with a song that would become arashi's debut song.

people are going to be like "what proof do you have?!," but amongst fans it is well known that there are groups that johnny himself pushes, and then groups that mary pushes. (mary is johnny's sister that almost entirely runs johnny's now that johnny himself isn't that healthy) in any case johnny would be the one that pushes such groups as smap, tokio, arashi, kanjani, while mary is known to push news, kattun, etc. (there's a famous rumor that mary like to push the pretty boys x:) in any case, sometimes, i personally, think that arashi is a group of johnny's favorite juniors. it was said that arashi was basically created based around sho. sho was the first one chosen for the group and their debut nearly centered around when he got into keio. matsujun is the one of the 3 elites of johnny which says enough. this means jun didn't have to to audition for anything, he was just chosen. basically johnny saw something in jun that said it doesn't matter if he can or cannot dance, this kid is going to be a star. i think johnny saw nino's potential from the start, because nino was chosen by johnny, and the only reason aiba was put into the group was because johnny remembered that "ah you can't have nino without aiba." as for ohno, if you watched the shounen club sp, every time ohno would tell johnny he was going to quit, johnny would somehow keep him within the company. it's also well known that ohno was originally asked to take okada's position in V6 but he declined it because he wasn't satisfied with himself to debut. so if you look at each of their situations, (minus aiba x:) you can see that arashi wasn't just randomly picked, it was carefully contemplated. if i feel thankful for anything, it's that aiba chan had his passport. i can't possibly imagine arashi not having aiba.

it sounds so stupid and someone that isn't a fan girl may think i'm out of my mind, but seriously i feel like "i'm destined to be arashi's fan." like there's a connection with arashi and their fans. x: i'm sure EVERY fan thinks this way about their idols, but i don't know. because with arashi 3/5 members, there was such a fine line that could have kept them out of this group. it's SUCH a fine line. nino was preparing to quit, he said this himself, and ohno also said he had told johnny he was going to quit, not once but twice. as for aiba, if he didn't have a passport that would have been the end. i don't know...the fact that they overcame these roadblocks makes me believe that from even a long time ago, years and years ago, that these 5 were supposed to come together. (i sound so stupid!!!) hahaha...but anyway yea.

before they sang love so sweet, there is the little text at the bottom. i don't remember exactly what it says but it says something along the line that love so sweet is a song that makes arashi & their fans ONE. that it's a song that arashi talks about as if they are the only ones able to sing it. that it's a song that is very dear to them. i love stuff like this. i love that they speak so highly of their song, and that the reason for that is because it brings them together with their fans. i love that connection between them and us. even when you think "oh we'll never be anything more than fan and idol" and yet...that is totally acceptable for me. that is more than enough.
