My positivity fix...

[dvampyrlestat]

Who needs a dose of their sanity? With all these crazy stuff going on?

I know I do.

And what better way to do that than the insanity that is AnS?

The guest is Sakai Maki. Love her skin. Does she even have make-up on? Love her dress. Oh, wait. I am not a dress-person.
But still, I love her dress.
It's blue. Yay.



They aired a CM clip of Sakai way back in the day, and the boys are close-to-smitten.

Sakai: You don't know this, right? This is the first time you've seen it?
Ohno: It's the first time I've seen it.
Sho: What year was this?
Sakai: This was 1992.

Sakai: How old were you in 1992?

Aiba is calculating.

Jun (thinks): 9 years old...



Aiba is still calculating..........XDDD

As per tradition, they make Aiba think of a nickname for their guest.



Aiba's rules on how to come up with a nickname:

1. Ask for her age.
Aiba: How old are you?
Sakai: I turned 38 this year.

Hot damn. She is 38.

2. Ask what her type of guy is.

Segue. Jun asks who, among the six of them, she liked best, and they all brace themselves.

Sho openly said he's nervous about her choice. I think that's the reason why she chose him. LOLZ! Kidding!

And, as in VS Arashi...the reaction is:



Audience: Eh~!!



Sho: This audience is rude!!!

Apparently she likes his comments and how he delivers the news. Chipmunk is one happy caster.

They make him deliver a spiel.



New style of hosting a show.
1. While Aiba thinks of a suitable nickname, slide in a few questions to the guests that can already qualify as the interview segment of the show
2. To please the guest, have Sho try out delivering the news. And the news would be...an Arashi promotion. With an Arashi song playing. 

After all these.....Aiba has decided on a nickname.
MAKI-CHAN.



Aiba. Your IQ shoots through the roof.

Potato chips and egg...on cabbage?! And Nino will do it in 10 minutes?

The schoolboy!






Nino prepares, MatsuJun plays a tune, Sakai is impressed with Nino's skill...





Oh! Sho-chan! Incoming!! A threat! Nino's a threat!



Sho: Let's move on to the news!



Taste test.



Ohno is high. *chortles*



So is Sho.



And the schoolboy is smug.

Personally...I want to eat potato chips on its own.

......Vanilla ice cream on RAMEN?!

Sho has no complaints.



I told you. These two are high.



She likes Italian racers Valentino Rossi. Don't know him. Heeeeheeeee.
Arashi's way hotter than he is. Methinks. And Eddie Irvine. *coughs*



They try to map out her future. Until age 100.



I have this mindset that I won't reach the age of 40. I've accepted that, damnit. But if I get to 100, and THAT would be who will wait for me, then I will rethink living beyond 40.
But, on second thought, I'd be a majorly old and senile woman by then.....aahh...decisions, decisions....

She'll meet her dream guy this year. And she doesn't mind whether he's younger or older.
At age 39, she'll get married.
And she wants 2 kids, boy and girl.
And buy a house at age 41.

Then they meddle, move things here and there.
Then she decides to get divorced at age 45.
Then meet her dream guy again at age 46.

But she rethinks it, since it gives her a bad image, so....maybe she'll meet her second dream guy at age 49 instead.




Stop messing with her, ARASHI!!!!
But come to think of it, the one holding the divorce tag was Ogura-san. LOLZ.

Hanaichimon no game. It must be a kids' game in Japan?
Anyway, it is fun.



And Sho gets first crack at impersonation.



Let's go, baby.....



And she's supposed to do Edo Harumi's "G~ood!!" impersonation. Oh boy.




Jun. You really shouldn't be laughing like that. It's rude!

Aiba impersonates the "Kitaa~!" guy. Fail. 



This is totally Sakai, I think. It was her idea. And the three wait in dread.




This is hilarious. Jun pulling a Sakana-kun (whoever he is) impersonation.









And who does he run to?





And yes, please. An Arashi Hanaichimon DVD. I'd definitely buy that.
You know who I want to see guest on AnS? Off the top of my head. Inoue Mao. Oguri Shun.

And KimuTaku.

....

Gawd. I hope everything will be alright....

thanks for sharing this! i love your caps and your narration. very amusing. ^_^ thank you for my dose of sanity and the needed break from all the chaos and worrying. Nice to see a post without ohno posing cheek-to-cheek with...errr...a cheek? haha. thanks again! ^_^

*goes off to look for somewhere to dl the whole episode*

[dvampyrlestat.livejournal.com]

If not for the amusing subjects, I doubt the narration would work. :) They just bring out the evil narrator in me.

Haha. Funny that you made a comment about cheeks and used an Ohnmiya-cheek-to-cheek icon. Go, you!

AND have you watched it already? Cause nothing beats watching it, motion and nuances and all. :DD

[tigerlily25.livejournal.com]

Thanks for sharing..LOL! Lovely lovely caps and of course the side comments

[dvampyrlestat.livejournal.com]

Oh I wish there's another AnS this week just so I can pile on more comments and forget what's actually happening. :) Yes. Lately, with all that's going on, AnS has become my mode of escapism.

[tenjostyle.livejournal.com]

Yokatta, a nice and normal guest! She seems to have natural make-up... but I felt her skin without make up, so natural look *___*

hahaha~ I remember that Jun said they were 9 years old, but since I was staring to Jun-kun, I missed Aiba-chan still calculating!!! kyaaa *___*

You made a long Jun screencap in mode shy as me, wasn't he adorable?? <3

I have enjoyed your Shukudai-kun post ^/////^ It was like watch the episode again with youuu~ <3 <3

I want Mao-chan and Shun-kun in AnS as well T______T

[dvampyrlestat.livejournal.com]

For 'nice and normal', I'm glad she's game enough to indulge these hosts' craziness.

Gurl, I don't wear make-up so I won't even know what natural make-up is! I am such a novice when it comes to these things. It's either she has makeup or she doesn't. Many women would kill to look like that at age 38.

Aiba had this severe look on his face, and you know numbers are running through his head. :)

Ahh....I totally fell for Jun in this ep. Just because. "Look, Ma! Domyouji's skipping and talking like an eejit!!!!"

I've watched it so many times that I won't be surprised if, in a Twilight Zone moment, we were watching it at the same time, from different sides of the planet. :)

[loissama.livejournal.com]

at last...a cure! thanks...
i know we have to support oh-chan but thanks for the cure!
nice review! i love it!
in this ep, they all so handsome. and the guest too! she's 38 and wearing natural make up, i want that skin too!!
i thought nino plays the tune, and it's matsujun actually.
whom i want to be the guest? mao-chan, shun-kun and kimutaku too. tackey&tsubasa too because they did the juniors together and actually tackey is their senpai, right?
oh, yes, i want NAKAI too. i bet it's gonna cho hilarious!

[dvampyrlestat.livejournal.com]

...
I doubt it's really a cure....I was hoping more along the lines of 'diversion'. Glad you think it worked. :)

I actually liked how all five of them were dressed. :) No complaints whatsoever. I guess the stylists made sure they looked presentable in the presence of this beauty. (I have no idea what natural makeup looks like. I am that much make-up-uninformed.)

I believe MatsuJun started the humming, then Ohno picked it up, then Sho went "Nino, Nino, Nino..."

Which senpais actually guested on AnS? Taichi (TOKIO) and Inocchi (V6). Only them, right? They ought to call in more senpais.

Ah yes. NAKAI. How could I forget. Then Ohno would turn the tables and bully him,

...oh wait. Ohno is actually the one starting the bullying in Utaban....hmmm...

[loissama.livejournal.com]

natural make up is like sakai-san, sooo natural.

i mean tackey is actually arashi's senpai but arashi graduate first and that made tackey became arashi's kouhai.

do you know there's a picture of the next utaban on yuckie-chan's LJ, nakai carrying a toy gun. can't wait for it!

[dvampyrlestat.livejournal.com]

ah yes!!! that utaban airs on Aug 2, right? Can't wait!!! I need a life-me-up from the guys themselves. :)

[loissama.livejournal.com]

not aug 2 but aug 7, still next week not this saturday.

[dvampyrlestat.livejournal.com]

oof! i stand corrected. see how eager i am? XDD

[loissama.livejournal.com]

yes, i can see that...^^

[tomokaku.livejournal.com]

Thanks for the pic spam :)
Aiba's nicknames are either very random or.. Random.

Sakai: I turned 38 this year.
USO O.O

[dvampyrlestat.livejournal.com]

But I like how that randomness springs from a LOT of thought and analysis. Or so he makes it look like there is a lot of thought and analysis. :)

RIGHT?! Many people would kill to look like that at age 40. And here she comes, 38. *shakes head*

[tomokaku.livejournal.com]

It surely looks like he puts a lot of effort even for something like that XD

I don't even wanna imagine how I look at that age lol

[dvampyrlestat.livejournal.com]

Ah, then I shall give him props for the effort, and not for the result, then. Good point. :)

Me neither. I'm too much the in-the-moment kind of person, anyways. :)

[mee-goreng.livejournal.com]

But if I get to 100, and THAT would be who will wait for me, then I will rethink living beyond 40.

What would THAT's age be? :D Wait.. i forgot, he stopped aging at 20.. So he probably will still look 20 years old when you're 100.

I wanna see Toma!!!!!! They always invite guests who've done work with Arashi or Jun or Nino or Sho, but i've never seen any guest who's Ohno's related.... Let it be Toma and no, no, not that Shiori!!!!!! D:

The two last caps!!!! juntoshi-ness~~~~~~~~~

[dvampyrlestat.livejournal.com]

Exactly. He stopped aging. So...if I reach 100, I'd look like his grandmother. Ah, the injustice of it all.

Ah, yes! Toma!!! I've only seen Toma-interviewing-Arashi and not the other way around. That'll be something to look forward to,

Mao-chan because MatsuJun is a goof around her.
Shun because he's good friends with Nino and Jun, and Jun lets him pwn him. Hah!

I'll rethink Shiori. A couple of dramas more, develop more personality, she just might be alright. But not right now.

Ah. Yes. JunToshiness. Hence my icon.

[harajunko86.livejournal.com]

I want to see Toma guest in AnS. It would be funny to see him scold Ohno for sneaking away to fish during breaks while filming for MAOU. And probably the other evil and naughty members will join in and lecture him too. Hahaha... XD

[dvampyrlestat.livejournal.com]

And this scenario would revert to the usual Toma-Arashi synergy: Toma ends up being the host and the members the guests. Lolz.

[ariange]

Thanks, I loved this episode (I know, "duh").

Aiba is still calculating..........XDDD
I totally missed this, haha :D

Oh, Aiba-chan...with the amount of time they gave him, I really thought, even if only for a nanosecond, he will come up with something...yeah...
That cap goes perfect with your IQ comment XD

The threatened Sho-chan and proud Nino - priceless.

You know, I'm European, really love Italy and I was like "wth woman, look around you!" XDD (heh, probably my friends' thoughts exactly when it comes to me).

I love Arashi impersonations (so I don't know who are the impersonating half the time, so what?) and Jun's just made me fall of my chair XD

And... it will be. It has to be.

[dvampyrlestat.livejournal.com]

For some weird reason, I was looking at Aiba-chan when Jun was answering. Maybe because he was too....violet? lolz. So yeah, i just found the severity of his 'thinking' expression totally funny.

OMG. Totally. Sorry. haha. I hope you didn't take offense with my Valentino Rossi potshot. No offense. But yeah, I was going...."you're surrounded by these 5 'special' boys and you opt for a blue-eyed blond instead." haha. Different strokes for different folks.

I love how Jun always ALWAYS surprises me. he's this ultra-cool unruffled guy but when he gets his moments, he really really makes those moments count. Totally loved him in this ep.

[ariange]

I played the vid again with the intention to look at Aiba this time but had to rewind that moment, 'cause I totally forgot about it while watching :p Weird, I don't hate him or anything... XDD

Come on, none taken ^^. Even if I was insanely in love with the guy, I can handle a joke :D. Which I'm not, just to clarify XD (I have 5 other distractions).

[dvampyrlestat.livejournal.com]

haha. No worries. NO ONE hates Aiba.

Ahh..we're on the same boat. With the 5 distractions. (sorry, Ogu-san. :))

Inoue Mao

[hiromi-kaku.livejournal.com]

I have been waiting forever and Mao still won't show on AnS... WHY?! WHY?!!! I really want Mao on this show.
I agree Oguri Shun would be a good guest too! Didn't think about that one... what about Horikita Maki? I know she already appeared at Cartoon KAT-TUN but still!

XOXO

Re: Inoue Mao

[dvampyrlestat.livejournal.com]

I had Maki-chan on my shortlist, but had to scrap her (I do love her. I do. She's probably my fave Japanese actress) because I was afraid she might not be able to keep up.

But then Toma's name came up and WHY THE HELL NOT!!!!! Toma and Maki! Promoting the upcoming HanaKimi SP! Add in Shun-kun! Then turn the ep into an hour-long special filled with Aibalando antics. Luvlee!

I want Mao too. In this show. Badly. I think she'll hold her own (and get one-up) on the five....

Re: Inoue Mao

[loissama.livejournal.com]

i want toma too as the guest!!
