Because it's the hundredth...
Sep. 9th, 2008 10:33 pm![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
...and that really doesn't mean anything in general but.
I just wanna capspam, 'kay?!

The guest this time is Suga Shikao, (according to Wikipedia) a Japanese singer and songwriter, the man behind a couple of SMAP's songs, Arashi's Aozora Pedaru and KAT-TUN's Real Face.
...I was surprised with the choice of guests on their 100th episode. I was expecting a comedian of some sort, or someone more mainstream. But I was not disappointed with Suga Shikao, because he held his own against our boys.
To start off, let me just say Aiba is looking exceptionally hot in this ep, in black and white. :)

But...color-coordinated much? Sakuraiba living up to the hype?

Let me gush on Sho's hairstyle. Coz I love it.
Ok. Gushing (not) quite over.
It's mushrooms today, people! (Goodness, those things cost a fortune over here.) There's all kinds of -take...but the tamagotake (egg mushroom???) grabbed most attention because...apart from it being Super Mario-ish, it...stinks?
And they just kept smelling it over and over...(I can't begin to explain how this cap reminded me of how newlyweds drink wine at their wedding.)


Take a look at little-hot-leader's face. Somebody tell me what they think he is thinking.

Kids. Don't try this at home.

Sho: It's huge.....
Aiba: It's...It's kinda...The shape's kinda strange...
HIT.


But I'm sorry, Nino, but we really don't want any of the two to go home. Not when we're having this much fun!
So they talk about Gasu (Aiba's fault, the nickname) and his image, which involved using his guitar skills to get them laydeez.
This, ladies and gents, is how little-hot-leader does the riffs. I just can't say exactly what Nino thinks, but then again, neither do I care, coz my eyes are Oh-chan-riveted.

Summer's ended, and he got too busy, but there's one thing he really really wants to do. No matter what.
Fireworks. (cue: Shobot's fireworks air gesture)
And the staff prepared kiddy fireworks, but the guest is totally fine with it. He just wants fireworks, damnit! So, he gets it.

Ok, so after the fireworks, this thing popped and after the Sakuraiba moment a while back, this just threw me into a fit of laughter. They are really males, aren't they!!!


Then came other fireworks. A hanamichi (was that some sort of fireworks truck?). Some round thing that pops with the cutest sound ever. And, probably the most senseless one ever, a police patrol car.
See? Even Ogu-san thought it was lame. "Bakayaro!!!"


Moving on to...Shiodome Aibaland-o!!! In short?
Ai-land-o!!!!!
(Whoever sent this one in ought to be given lots of rainbow props. No, really.)
Aiba explains the mechanics of the 'game', and ends up being the first victim. (You all know this but) The lines written are to be lyrics to be sung depending on what musical style Gasu will be able to pick from the box.
AibaRap is embarassing. He said it himself. I know why. It's called "Yo! overkill".


Ogu-san is the coolest grandpa EVER!!! Check out his pants in this ep. lolz. And wow. He has some voice. Come to think of it, he did use to be in a band in his heydays, right?

Matsumoto Jun is no Bocelli. Thank God.
But I gotta admit, I kinda liked how he sounded. He wasn't...whiny?
"This is the 6 o'clock news." *rotfl* Sho should try this one, too. "This is News ZERO!!"


Nino and his hamburger hands. Very handy. Pun fully intended.

Nino's turn. (Oh I wish they'd made him cosplay a maid costume while saying that line!!!)

Gasu must be SOOO THANKFUL it wasn't any of his songs being butchered by these five.

Didn't I tell you? Those hands. Very handy.

So is the dog. But I'd pick the hands any time.

Ohno-kun!!! I love how he just stepped on to the podium. That, my friends, is a PRO.
(No matter what this clip says, I love Ohno rap. Remember Cool & Soul at The Dome? And now Re(mark)able?)


(Gasu now knows NOT to write rap for these members.)

I did say PRO, right? The 'do-it-now, be-embarassed-later' type of Pro.

Who dares wins.
Both dared.
I'm not sure who won.


Sho's turn. Smart move, Jun. And Ogu-san is right. Rap for Sho would be boring. After all, that's his forte.

But the moment I heard "love ballad", I was ready to drop dead from laughing. And Sho hasn't even started yet!

Now Gasu knows who to write rap for.


If not for this chair, I would be on the floor, too, same as these guys.

Gasu is sooo game! Yes, even after Aiba air-kissed (is there such a word?) him.

But trust the songwriter to NOT stick to the 'lyrics' given him.

AibaRock!
A few inches closer and I swear Nino would've sustained injuries from being hit by a mic stand.
But Aiba's brand of rock is just....rawking funny.



The boy is so into it. *shakes head*
I wanna see him try rockin' it at that haunted hospital, though. *evil laughter*

Date: 2008-09-10 02:44 am (UTC)Oh he would. I'd love to see him do the Phantom. Haha!
The main reason I don't get to see operas much is cuz they don't have them over here. There are some, very few, in Manila, but I won't drive for six hours just to catch an opera. Unless Ohno stars in it.
no subject
Date: 2008-09-10 02:59 am (UTC)Oh I see! Then let's watch a butai starring Ohno! But live! We are going to do a lot of stuff in Japan! Looking forward to that trip!
We only have one or two operas a year here! So when there are operas here WE GO!
no subject
Date: 2008-09-10 03:12 am (UTC)Yes, LET'S! They ought to do a butai of him showcasing his singing, though. A musical. I know he did it before on West Side Story, but do it now, when he's at the top. :) *is giddy* oooooh yeah.....!
Andrea Bocelli came for a concert a couple of years ago. I didn't go. That's not opera, right. Lolz. I want a story unfolding before my eyes as the opera progresses, not just the artist standing there.
no subject
Date: 2008-09-10 06:14 am (UTC)Oh.. I love musicals. Never seen one live, tho. Just movies and such. (Have u seen the movie RENT?) Ohno in something like Broadway! Good! Hey we would be good Ohno managers! Hahaha! And Ohno has such a beautiful voice, so it suits him. Plus he's hot. :D
I have to be honesty with u, I watch the whole butai u guys sub, Ohno is good, but the story not so good. I mean, I did enjoy it and all, but I was expecting something different. What did u thought about the whole play?
I don't think Andrea Bocelli is opera, but he does sings opera at his concerts, I think.
If you can go to an opera, try to go. And if the story is a good one, even better! The want I really want to watch is Madame Butterfly.

Date: 2008-09-10 07:17 am (UTC)I've seen the RENT film!!! Makes me wish I'd seen one of its local stage productions, but they do it in Manila. I've seen musicals live. Every year my university has this theater group and they hold a major production every year. And I make sure I buy DVDs of musicals, or download them when I see them, because that's how much of a sucker I am. ) So far, my faves would be Miss Saigon. And Les Miserables. And I am biased, because I like them partly due to the fact that LEA SALONGA is in them. :)
I SAY! Fangirls make the best managers!!!!
Tensei Kunpuu....Yeah. The story wasn't that spectacular. I had a few questions here and there, most of them centering on paradoxes and whatnot (but I won't dwell on them, they're too deep for my head right now. lolz). I actually thought the best moments were the ad libs by the actors. The actors were the best thing about it.PERIOD. And Ohno did what he can with the material given to him, which I'm glad. :)
check out my icon....*naughty me~*

Date: 2008-09-10 05:25 pm (UTC)Don't u just love the movie! I'm addicted to the "Seasons of love" song. When I first listen to the song I was "Five hundred twenty-five thousand
Six hundred minutes" all the time XD. But the song I really like is "La Vie Boheme" I know the song by hearth! Love the lyrics.
Just saw an interview of Lea Salonga. She's good! And so down to earth! And beautiful voice! Great performer!
Yes, the actors were good. Ohno did a great performance too! Plus he's hot! (Notice how I always say he's hot!? XD)
Ladies and Gentlemen, we have an ICON WINNER! That is a delicious, kinky icon you have there! I think you should use it all the time! You're naughty!!!! XD
Off topic. Have u asked your friend bout my t-shirt? Everyone likes a spicy latina XD and, how are things for the Shanghai con?
no subject
Date: 2008-09-11 12:34 am (UTC)I love Lea Salonga. :) She makes our country proud. And I simply love listening to her sing Broadway. :) I hope I can watch her perform on stage live in the future.
haha! Rosa made that icon for me. I just said I want Sakuraiba AND the mushroom. That was all her. XDDD I just gave the push!
And I'm probably gonna get stoned if I use that icon all the time, so imma use it only when the occasion calls for it. XDD I can be naughty too!!!
I did ask Aki, but she's kinda struggling with rl right now (notice that we haven't come out with Maou ep10 just yet. :) RL sucks. haha!). So I was thinking I'd ask my other friend Cindy when I catch her online. :)
The Shanghai Con...there was a number and we had someone book tickets for us. I hope it is legit. :) We so want to go!! :)
no subject
Date: 2008-09-11 02:17 am (UTC)She rocks, she was in Broadway when she was what 19 - 20 years old!?? You all should be proud!
Hahahaha... get stoned from the icon!? True.. those are mushrooms! XD
RL.. it's hard sometimes. Hope she can solve what's going on in her life! ^_^ I did notices about Maou ep 10, but, we can wait, don't worry!
Ok, I'll wait for it then, is not like I have to have the t-shirt right now XD. Meanwhile u know what I'm going to do? I'll probably print the t-shirt I did for u and have one for myself! XD
I'm not going to the con but.. I like the t-shirt!
You are so getting those tickets concert!! Let me know when you get them so we can celebrate! We can put the song "Celebration" by Kool and the Gang!! XD

I'll still ask Cindy and let's see what she'll give me, then you can take your pick in case they're different.
Lea started singing when she was a wee child. And Miss Saigon was her biggest break. Ironic, huh. Many Filipino theater actors broke into the international scene by playing Vietnamese roles. haha!
Have you seen Miss Saigon? Or heard the songs? They staged a local production in my City a year ago and I watched it and I was blown away, so I cannot imagine what it'll be like if Lea was the one doing the role of Kim. She's a national pride.
Yeah. She's having a hard time. :) Maybe we can do a double release of the last two eps of Maou, who knows. :) Thanks for waiting, though. :)
Ah yay! Do that!!! Last weekend I walked my legs raw looking for a shirt. Haha! I settled for a white one. It was so hard looking for an icy blue shirt. And the ones I saw have prints over them. I saw a white one that I liked and there are a bit of flowers on the lower corner but they're alright. And yay! I'm well on my way to having that shirt!!! :)
I hope so too!! Hope so!!! Praying so!!! Going crazy praying so!!!!
no subject
Date: 2008-09-11 06:27 pm (UTC)Nop, I haven't seen Miss Saigon nor heard the songs. I'll look them up and let you know what I think! I supposed they are good, we have similar taste in music.
Which one is she!? I would like to send her a comment and tell her thanks for the translations and the we'll wait for her rl things to solve! It's always good when you get encourage by someone... even from strangers, ne? hehehe
I hope I can find an icy blue one. I already have to many white t-shirt. Yohooo the t-shirt is gonna be ready for the con then!
Pray girl! yes! I'm praying too! ^_^
no subject
Date: 2008-09-12 12:01 am (UTC)Oh you should try to listen to them! I know I promised some songs to upload for you. and When I find some songs on my HD I'll add them in. :) Soon. Real soon.
She's aatash (LJ username, too). She just made a major move from Japan to the US and getting her papers fixed and having to deal with shit with different offices. You know how bureaucracy craps out on you. :)
This sux....coz I just heard from someone that the Shanghai con tix will be done via balloting, quite like the Japan cons. You book, then they raffle/draw and those picked will be the ones to get tix. That just narrows my chances coz I don't have the best of luck when it comes to raffles. I hope the wind changes and blows in my favor.....*sigh*
no subject
Date: 2008-09-12 02:51 am (UTC)Ohhh.. aatash! I've been in her LJ. Bureaucracy.. yuck!
Don't say that! When it comes to raffles and things like that I'm very lucky! I'll send good vibes and all my lucky vibes to you! But first... just imagine getting your ticket on the mailbox. Believe!!! YOUR TICKET! Picture it in your hand! The mind is powerful! No more "That just narrows my chances..." ok? Trust me!!! It WORKS! Stay positive my friend! And keep praying!!! I'll keep praying too! ^_^

Date: 2008-09-12 03:13 am (UTC)Oh well......I'll just leave the decision to the powers-that-be. :)

Date: 2008-09-12 02:29 pm (UTC)btw.. just finish watching Maou... and I'm like O_o.. didn't understand the last image. I'm just shock by the end, it was really good!
no subject
Date: 2008-09-12 03:27 pm (UTC)And I wasn't able to watch Maou via TVU coz I had to work on a speech being requested of me....*cries*
But all's good. When I wake up tomorrow there'll be downloads available and I can spoil myself rotten! Lolz
