Here's a well researched and relaxed interview with Michieda Shunsuke by Mini magazine! It felt like Micchi was chatting with a fellow NaniFam, and the interviewer clearly knew their interview subject.

Here are the lyrics to Naniwa Danshi's 2nd single, "The Answer"!

"The Answer" is a thrilling tune interwoven with mysterious and dramatic elements. With a strength that saves one out of the darkness, the intense and fast-moving track will echo in your mind as a full-on dance tune.

( Ray of light in my eyes )

In case you haven't already seen me tweeting about them, Naniwa Danshi is the latest group to debut from J&A! Here's a translation of "Time View", which is a song written by one of their members, Michieda Shunsuke. You can listen to the song on YouTube here or watch the performance on Bilibili here.

The melody was composed by Kawaguchi Susumu, who has writing credits on Arashi's "Starlight Kiss", "Hit the floor" and "Sounds of Joy".

Arashi filmed a backstage segment on November 3rd, after their surprise appearance at the 5x20 Film screening. The video was posted to the FC site to commemorate the nationwide release of "Record of Memories". Not gonna lie, I think I teared up a bit when I heard Ohno's voice.

Hi everyone! It's been a looong while, hasn't it? I missed reading about our famous 5 and asked

Someone suggested that I translate the "This is Arashi" pamphlet round-table, so here it is! I'm sorry that I only translated the excerpts as I don't have the stamina to plough through full translations these days.

In late December, Arashi posted an FC video where they reflected on the different aspects of ARAFES 2020!

The translation is 13 pages long on my Word document so far so I'll be splitting the translation in a series of posts.

Just when I thought I wouldn't have anything to post for Sho's birthday, each Arashi member sent a birthday message to Sho! There's even a bonus mention of Ohno as well, though he didn't appear in the video.

We also got a message from the birthday boy himself, read on for more details!

Josei Joshin spoke to some TV staff to understand Arashi's battle in their last week in the lead up to the hiatus.

Arashi's Battle in their last week

Jun was spotted exiting his gym on 25 Dec. Arashi had just wrapped up the final episode of VSA the day before. On Christmas afternoon, Arashi members gathered for a meeting and rehearsal for Music Station, which ended at around 11pm.

A TV station staff said they had nothing but admiration for Arashi's last week. "They prepared for their New Year Eve Live while appearing on different TV stations, so their schedules must have been crazy. While they must have wanted their fans to enjoy their shows, the TV staff also felt Arashi's devotion and were sincerely moved, because Arashi carefully spoke of their gratitude and memories for each station."

An NTV staff also shared what happened during the filming of the last episode for Arashi ni Shiyagare.

"When the cameras weren't rolling, the 5 members didn't stop smiling. After the broadcast ended, they gave high-fives to all the staff through acrylic panels. Some staff members were also in tears. The staff applauded them as Arashi left the studio."

A NHK staff keenly felt Arashi's passion as he took part in the meeting discussions for Kouhaku. "I heard that Matsumoto-san personally requested to have a virtual meeting with the Kouhaku production staff. Artistes themselves rarely participate in these meetings. While Arashi sang 3 songs, the staff whom he met with for each song was different. A certain team had a different opinion from Matsumoto-san, and apparently had a tense discussion for close to an hour. Matsumoto-san said, 'I don't want a half-assed attempt at it, and I don't want any compromises. We want to finish this in a stoic and professional manner.'"

( It's a dream that I get to work with Aiba-chan on a regular show. )

Here's a translation that I did on Twitter a few months back when Arashi announced the "This is Arashi" concert. I'm so glad and relieved that they managed to pull off this concert without any major incident and enter the hiatus on such a high note.

( Ohno-san, do you know the date? )
