I Love Himitsu no Arashi-chan ~ Seeing them in a suit was *_____* They went into renewal over and over again but it always turns out funny, ne! I hope soon the Mannequin five will come again 8D It's just so funny to see Sho Failing again and again. I wonder if he'll EVER get picked XDDD

god ~ got into a huge fangirl phase again while watching arashi and mario xD
it is subbed by the comm tsuribaka ^__^ and you guys really should watch it, if you haven't done XD

nino really proved that he is a real gamer and he knows everything <3 and aiba is just a miracle boy xD he can do everythign <333>___< but i still rememer where you can find and so on <333

HnA, especially the early episodes, is a godsend when it comes to convincing people that Arashi really is respectable, honest!--since most people can't get past some of the, uhhh, choice overcoats that they should have the misfortune of viewing on one of the arashi concert DVDs that i might be watching when said persons enter the room (i.e. my younger sister and her, "what the eff is that girly man wearing?"-ness).

I usually now start a conversation with some random tidbit that i remember from HnA ("did you know that there are these SUPER MAGNET DENTURES sold in Japan?") and then, if the listener is intrigued, I just casually, you know, mention that, "that guy group that i really like--you know the one--yeah, they were talking about it in this one episode..."

and then i show them the clip. and they are intrigued. and then they (okay, again, my younger sister) drool over the five in their suits, and then says that, yes, "those japanese boys" are kinda hot--especially that sho guy--and, no, they're not completely stupid looking.

:-]

This week they had the guess the narrator culinary tour again and their guest was Kano Eikou, but at least they changed it so that whoever guessed correctly sampled the food. My favorite portion of that had to be when Nino spoiled the guest's skit in the beginning and the lack of reaction that Katsuga from Audrey received saying "ramen... tsumen... boku ikemen."

They also had the 3000W challenge again and both Ohno and Aiba blew the fuse, which prompted the "Nice SWAT" comment from Sho. To Ohno's credit though it was only over by 70W, whereas Aiba was over by 1695W. (There was a cute scene of Ohno eating bread from the bread maker and stating again he wants to open a bakery.)

I can't wait until next week because it seems interesting and involves a dunk tank and very scared Arashi's members anticipating falling into said tank.

These latest episodes sound so great! Can't wait until I can see them.

I've started to like "the food tour", I like their faces when all of them say the name of the narrator and there's no coincidence
I like too that now they can taste the food if they say the correct answer.

i like the new change..yea instead of spraying is good that they get rewarded for answering correctly...haha..and the last segment was better than the previous one..haha...

does anyone know the ratings in japan for HnA? thank you!!

Tonight's Himitsu...I quite enjoyed it
More and more it was becoming an Arashi-centric episode.

The "Popular Arashi! No-Good Arashi" corner was fun
Lol, there was Ooshima who was absolutely Matsujun-biased that the other 4 wanted to remove her
In the end, the dame one was Aiba. Poor guy, he looked so cold. and i think he's the one who gets sick easily

The second corner was
They have to cry within one minute. Lol, at Nino cracking up with the Harisenbon exposed belly.

I swear, Sho was so good at letting his tears fall. Quiz show, effect?
But still they were able to clear it all. Sugoi, arashi!

Nino - "Galaxy" (the galaxy award he received)
Ohno - "Maou"
Sho - "The Quiz Show"
Jun - "Smile"
Aiba - "Doubutsen" (zoo)
^Just love these reference

Sho's hair is getting into me and I like it and Riida...he looks less tan now. yay \o/

im seeing bits of clips of the new hna..n though sum of it is entertaining...i totally miss the first version of it..like it waz awesome..n educational..since the boys actually go n do research about certain secrets..ive learned so many things from those eps itz unbelievable..then the 2nd format came n that waz basically no arashi..since they just watched videos...i did like the baka kakkoii parts n the mario segments...other than that...didnt like it..it waz boring to watch...the new format..has different corners so that u can say the members r kinda competing against each other..n w/e the corner involves..mannequin 5 is interesting to see their personal styles n all...the elimination thing is kinda sad..

i just wish they went back to the first format again..since then it rly stuck to the show's name..they discover secrets that r not generally known..

This weeks HnA was awesome.
I'm really loving aiba's new hairdo..it looks so cute!!
poor aiba...
