VS Arashi

The new format VS Arashi started today, replacing GRA (yokatta!). Each week a celebrity pairing (or more) will challenge Arashi in some very Tokyo Friend Park-ish games!

The first episode was GREAT!!!!! Thank god that Fuji TV saw sense to give Arashi something fun to do, to let them really show their personalities. I loved the games - they were so baka, which made them great... and all the members really seemed to be enjoying themselves!!

What did everyone think??

I loved it!!!! I will never leave the house on Saturday's morning now! I think my fave section is Most Dame Arashi - soooooo funny when they all pointed at eachother *hahahah* and when Jun fell down and everyone gathered around to looked down at him *hahahahah*

Heart

it!!!!!!!

I just saw some screen caps in someone's LJ and it looked really funny!!! I think it will def. be a show that you can watch and not have to understand Japanese haha. I can't wait to see the full episode!

I agree that something like this show is much more suited for Arashi. They are all so crazy and funny, although I didn't mind GRA, I liked learning from them ^_^

This show sounds like a lot of fun. So what does the VS stand for? And is the whole show all fun and games or do they have a segment where they chat with the guests too?

To me, VS most likely stands for 'versus' since it's the guest(s) versus the boys of Arashi. But I haven't seen the first episode, so I might be wrong. -A-

Oh yeah, that totally makes sense based on the premise of the show. I did not think about it being the abbreviated form of the word "versus." I saw it as an acronym for something else. Thanks. smile

I love game shows. Hopefully this brings back my interest towards Arashi. I don't like GRA or Shukudai-kun..

Type in "VS Arashi" to Veoh.com. Someone just uploaded it ^_^

I just watched the first episode and it was so funny!!! Nino is like a little monkey climbing the wall and poor Jun got picked on.. although.. he was the only one who didn't get any points right? >_< Yay, I can't wait for next week, finally an Arashi show that can be enjoyed with out subtitles!! ^_^

This show is so awesome though I was a bit surprised they still had to choose a Most Dame Arashi even though Arashi won. I mean, I'd understand an Arashi member having to go through a punishment game if they lost but what's the logic behind punishing them if they win? They don't even get anything special for winning so I think it's a bit unfair to still have to go through the MDA thing. This also makes me curious about what actually happens if they lose. Do all of them get punished?

The show was so much fun to watch. Finally seeing the boys having fun. I like being informed by the other shows but this one has to be my new favorite Arashi show.

They have MDA because even though ARASHI won, well in episode one's case Jun got them NO points. Therefore - he was dame.

I doubt it'll be him every time...the challenge he went for was kinda hard. When Ohno caught both, I was like "OUWAAAWTF."

I loved this show though~ For a week of firsts - definitely liked VS. Arashi more than Himitsu. I can't wait until next week~ Hopefully new games. big grin

i love the show! ^_^ and the games look fun too. i especially like nino's strategy in the first game.. he let loose the two poles so fast that the guest was still in the midst of preparing himself that he totally missed the poles. good one, nino! clapping

and riida's very very smug look when he managed to catch the poles is simply hilarious.. LOL

oh, and i realized that only nino and riida wore shorts..riida's one, for some reason, brings to mind a pair of pajamas.. maybe it's the stripes -_-

I loved this show! Nino never fail to amaze me, with his geek-y image I always forget how athletic he is ^^

I wonder if the games will change from one week to another?

And the "punishment" isn't that hard :p
