バーガ全部大好き！^_^

Hello, I'm Juu. I'm Arashi's big fan. My first love is Nino-kun, but I love all Arashi members equally! ^_^

This is Juu's private journal where she post about her real life, and sometime a translation of Arashi (if she's not busy with her college work). There is no Arashi subbed videos in here. If you want to get the videos, go and join ao_no_michi  instead.

You are welcome to friend me. But it will take time for me to add you back. You can leave a comment here to let me know who you are and why you add me though.

My love is only for Arashi. If you think that we have something in common, do introduce yourself at here and add me. I will definitely add you back if you do that.

Other than that, I hope you enjoy your stay here :)

I edit this post, because it's no longer relevant. That's why I decide to change it into something more useful. Well, at least to me xD

Yosh! I'm going to finish this! *is determined*

In my first impression of Lucky 7, I had said that I'm impressed by how this drama looks like a movie. But in the second episode, I can admire more than just one good point of this drama. Unlike NazoDi (although a great drama, but really, can't be compared to Lucky 7), Lucky 7 is a very well-written and structured drama. I love it that they always start their investigation from scratch and no matter they don't get along with each other when it comes to work they can go perfectly in-sync.

Another thing that I love in this drama is there's no rush, it's not about knowing who's the real culprit, but more about the work of the detectives itself, how they gather their information, how they solve their current problem, and how their teamwork tested with each case.

The case in episode 2 might not be the strongest (episode 1 still have better case) but the way they played along with the theme is truly brilliant. It's actually simple, investigating someone and report it, and yet it becomes so much more difficult with the new development near the end and the unexpected ending. It was brilliant.

As I can see from the preview of episode 3, seems that the case will be about investigating a woman who cheated on people using marriage (kekkon sagi). So she's like faking a marriage with someone before robbing off all his money. And I'm thrilled to see how they expose here because seems like all the three men in the Lucky Detective Agency will investigate her by becoming her targets.

Definitely can't wait for episode 3!!

"Do you think I'm suited for this job?"

"That question is kind of tricky. If I say you're suited for this job that means I'm giving you reassurance about this. If I say you're not suited, then you're going to use it as a getaway to quit anytime. Isn't it?"

"I think so."

Above is the line from the ending of Lucky 7. I really love that line~

Aside from that, I really like Lucky 7, not only the story but the entire drama itself. It's so beautiful, the way they shoot the drama is very different from the usual drama out there. I can tell that it's so movie-like. It's crips, take in the right angle, and every scene is needed, no prolonged or wasteful scene in the drama. Overall, I really like Lucky 7.

The story is also touching, especially when Tokita said "I'm asking for help because I know I can't do it by myself!". That's the line that hooked me. I think he's the HERO that admits he needs help, the usual hero always try to solve everything by themselves and makes it messier. Tokita actually ask for help and that's why their infiltration to the underground fighter stage is successful, because he didn't do it by himself and that everything is so well-planned. That's a first I guess to a detective drama.

I really hope that they keep this pace for Lucky 7. It's already good enough as it is. I wish the best for Jun-kun with this drama. And I really can see that he's changed, the way he acts definitely different. He is more expressive and he is able to let go of his "Matsumoto Jun" persona. It's nice to see him growing up as an actor~ All in all, I'm so excited for episode 2~!

I don't really understand why people have to compare Arashi and AKB48, just because they're the most talked-about in Japan. When AKB48 fans said that Arashi days is over now it's time for AKB48 and when the fans get all defensive, it was just ridiculous and somewhat weird to me. The fact that they compare AKB48 and Arashi itself is already weird. Both are different, in their genre (of song) and their fanbase. So why should we compare them? It's like you want to compare L'Arc-en-ciel with SMAP (which is even more ridiculous if people really do that, this is just an example though).

I don't really know Jpop, I don't even like Jpop (well, 'hate' is more of an appropriate term though), so I don't really listen to AKB48 songs, but they've been promoting themselves outside Japan while Arashi only operates in Japan. Moreover, AKB48 has more than 48 members (as I know, it's around 90, or maybe more than that by now). If one member have like, 1.000 fans, of course they should sell well for CDs and Albums or that would be weird. Arashi only has 5 members in their group and they can sell more than 600k for their single and millions for their albums. Don't you think it's a feat itself? Why should we argue who's better? We have our own opinion and preferences so let's just let people who bad mouth others pass?

To me, Arashi has written their own history and the most important thing is that they always have fun in everything they do and they're healthy. They've experienced more rough days than just being number 6 or 7 in rankings. Remember the days where they don't even get to be shown on TV or when they have to struggle with late night shows. We have to be thankful that people came to love them and that we can see them every week (Arashi still bring good ratings for their show, that's one thing we should be thankful about). I think that's more than enough, really.

So let's walk along respectively, never bad mouth other artist because other artist also have their own struggling days and that they truly deserve the attention they got. Let be the fans that Arashi can be proud of :)

I'm really not someone who is the type to complain over something at the internet, that's just not me (well, fandom matter is different thing of course). I always think that my real life is my private life. I can share about my past that I feel could help people around me too but whining is something I never do. But this time, just this time I really want to vent out all my anger and frustration that I've been holding on for too long.

It's not that I don't understand you're busy or have something you do in your real life. If that's so please tell me and I'll understand. But to have you someday just disappear right in front of me while still talking with someone else, just completely ignoring me, was such a very cowardly thing to do. I want people to be responsible to what they've promised to do even it took them forever to do it. I don't mind the time you spend doing it but tell me, tell me and I'll understand. If you don't want to do it anymore then say it and I'll also understand. But choosing the "I'll ignore you until you stop bothering me" method is something that a coward would do and I hate that kind of people the most.

And I also hate it when I got blamed on something that I don't do. It was something that someone else did in the past but before I'm the one taking it over now so I just have to be responsible for all of it and apparently people wanted me to do it right even though they knew that's not something I've ever done in the past before. They expect me to do all my task beautifully and flawlessly, just because they thought I'm paid higher than the rest of them, but isn't that unfair? Even when I said I'm used to it already, being busy, being pushed past my limit until my body couldn't handle it anymore, but there's always a limit to everything. And today was my limit. My real life all messed up and I've been watching Arashi all the time after work today to calm me down (it works, and that's why I'm not crying or thinking of doing something stupid that I will surely regret later on) and then write it here.

Now that I think about it, I was so negative since this morning and having a tired day full of complaints and anger didn't help at all. And after I vent it out here, I feel much much better than before. 

I'm going back to translate VS Arashi again so that I can feel even more better to start my grueling day at work tomorrow (because I'm sure I'm going to get scolded again for the things that was not my fault at all). Good night everyone.

I can't say that I've experienced heartbreak. To me it will be more to unrequited love over anything. But recently, my friend got her heart broken by a guy who she had a crush on. Maybe it's not that of a big deal to most of you, almost all girls experience heartbreak in their life (directly or indirectly), but to her it's a very big blow. That guy said three things to her that makes her got hurt more than if it's just a simple rejection.

"I have no feelings for you."
"Go and meet better man."
"We're almost like strangers."

Gosh, That's the most hurtful things a guy said to a girl, who has a crush on him. I don't mean to generalize all the guys in the same category but by this accident I think that guys are simply pricks sometimes. I know he means good by saying "Go and meet better man" but to say that to a girl who just got her heart broken? I don't think that's the right thing to say. But I have to say that I admire him for appearing to be as normal as he can in front of my friend. They meet every week at the church and my friend already planning not to talk to him anymore but then he greeted her warmly as usual and just took her as one of his friends. And with this, my friend wailed that she could never forget him if he kept on being that nice to her.

Oh well, I think heartbreak is just a phase in one's life. At least I got to learn something for this event. Never approach the guy first.

Finally, I get my own twitter :D Though I'm still confused as to how to operate it, I hope that I can get used to it soon~

If you have time, do follow me~

and I'll follow you back :D

Finally, after the long three and a half year struggling battle, I'm going to graduate today. Though I'm still far from my ideal weight and I'm still just a normal staff in a company, just for today I'll be the prettiest as I'm the main character of today's event. I'm going to laugh and not cry despite everything that happened and that I promised to make this day an unforgettable day for me.

Congrats to me!

Juu
