My Girl
Episode 5, RAW

There is a possibility that I may go to Arashi's concert in Tokyo Dome next month, but I was wondering how early you needed to stand and wait to enter the venue. I have classes in the afternoon that I unfortunately cannot skip if I decide to go on the Friday show, and I predict that I can get to Tokyo Dome about a little over an hour before the curtain raising. Obviously I'm giving up on getting concert goods but is this enough time for me to make it inside before the concert starts?

Thanks for any help.

Translation of whatever bits I can find on youtube from a 2004 episode of Recomen where KA-N went on.

Part 2

You can watch the PV for PARTY TIME here.

OK, ignore the wig (I haven't found one that really matches his hair yet) and the fact is not fake fur what I'm wearing (since the only shop I knew closed, it's hard to find fake fur with that color). The purple is no the same (here the purples I found weren't the same) and I had to sew it myself without a sewing machine XD I still have some chains to add... but considering the pictures I had aren't great to see how's exactly that jacket... whatever XD I only wanted to cosplay Uchi ~

Hello, folks!

As many of you probably know, Shingo is set to star in Talk Like Singing, the first Japanese musical to debut in New York. A group of us from the forum Shin Channel SMAP will be attending the shows to watch him perform. Right now, there is an ongoing campaign to write Shingo letters to let him know that he has overseas fans who love him too. We are making it our mission to see that Shingo receives these letters and to give testament that there SMAP fans from all over the world.

So, if there is something you would like to say about Shingo or about SMAP, please send a message! It can be a sentence, a drawing, a novel -- anything you'd like to express your feelings. After you're done, you can PM the message to Megumi, the SCS forum administrator, and she will print your messages and put them in a lovely decorated binder. Or if you're not a forum member and prefer not to register for an account, you can LJ PM or e-mail the message to me (my username @livejournal.com) and I will pass them along to Megumi.

The deadline for sending a message is late tomorrow (Sunday) night, US time. We apologize for being so last-minute about this call for letters!

Sorry for the post fail, mods.

Actors Inoue Mao (22) and Okada Masaki (20) attended a surprise stage greeting at Tokyo's Shibuya HUMAX Cinema to thank fans for making the movie 'Boku no Hatsukoi wo Kimi ni Sasagu' a big hit.

Since it was opened to the public 2 weeks ago on the 24th, 920 000 people have watched the movie, raking in 1100 million yen in box-office earnings.

"I'm happy to be able to say the words 'thank you' personally. This wonderful film will be remembered in your hearts," Inoue said. A delighted Okada added, "It has been overwhelming. Tension is at the maximum."

Singer of the movie's theme song 'Boku wa Kimi ni Koi wo Suru', Hirai Ken (37), made a surprise entry on stage with a bouquet of flowers. He commented about being nervous as it was his first stage greeting.

Make sure you'll see it for yourself if you're in Tokyo :) Have no idea how long they're going to display it. Though "Xmas" writing makes me hope that it'll be on for at least a month.

Long time Utada collaborator Goetz B. has updated his site discography with an entry for a new Utada single titled “Show Me Love.” The sound mixer has worked exclusively on Utada’s Japanese works, so it seems likely that “Show Me Love” will continue that pattern and be released as a Japanese language single under EMI Japan sometime in the near future.
