*What each member of Arashi thinks about Aiba-chan*
taken from H December issue

1 What's your favourite work among Aiba's past works?
Ninomiya: 'Shinjuku Boy Detectives' He seems to have been spending hard time while he was working on this.
Ohno: 'Tsubame no Iru Eki' Because it was the one he made his first appearance on the stage.
Sakurai: 'Tsubame no Iru Eki' Because I could feel very much through his performance this stage was really important to him.
Matsumoto: 'Tsubame no Iru Eki' I remember him having working on this very hard. It was impressive.

2 What do you think is Aiba's most selling point as an actor?
Ninomiya: He can't do the same thing twice..., ah, I mean he DOESN'T do the same thing twice.
Ohno: Just the way he is.
Sakurai: He faces his role honestly and sincerity, which is not only in acting but whenever he does his jobs, though.
Matsumoto: He always does his job as hard as he can.

3 If you were a producer, what kind of role in what kind of work would you want him to play?
Ninomiya: A true history of Mutsugoro Kingdome, as a role of Mutsugoro. *About 'Mutsugoro'; His real name is Masanori Hata, he's a famous novelist and a biologist. He owns Mutsugoro Kingdome which is his private zoo.
Ohno: Very emotional role.
Sakurai: A role who is at a loss about his life as being burdened.
Matsumoto: How about a story about a boy who loves running but is no longer able to run?

4 Aiba's attractive point and weak point.
Ninomiya: Sometimes he pretends he can read the atmosphere even though he can't, that is his attractive point and weakness too.
Ohno: Sometimes he becomes boyish.
Sakurai: Hyper tension that makes people surrounding him happy... but sometimes he is overcome with his own tension.
Matsumoto: Attractive point is his cheerful character, and weakness is being natural fool (laugh).

5 What Aiba has and you don't, and what do you envy him at?
Ninomiya: Popularity.
Ohno: His being very fast runner.
Sakurai: He expresses his emotions honestly. He even makes me happy whenever he is happy somehow.
Matsumoto: Such a cheerful character, which I can't be.

6 What do you want Aiba to improve?
Ninomiya: Nothing in paritcular.
Ohno: Don't walk around at the back stage in only underpants.
Sakurai: Don't reply to Cc mails by Cc mails. I always get confused to receive incoerent mails ex; 'I'd like sushi!'
Matsumoto: Never being in the right place at concerts, and he always makes mistakes in very easy choreography..., which is funny though.

7 What has he changed most since debut?
Ninomiya: He's been becoming more like a comedian.
Ohno: He's gained a stronger sense of responsibility.
Sakurai: Reconsider what he's done during the day and tries to reflect on the next job. He might have been doing since past, but now he tends to show more with words.
Matsumoto: More taking a positive attitude toward telling his opinions and taking into actions.

8 If you express Aiba in colour, what colour would he be? and why?
Ninomiya: Various.
Ohno: He changes in many different colours. I feel so as watching him.
Sakurai: Yellow, nothing but vivid yellow, as vivid as piercing the eyes.
Matsumoto: Orange, that's what he usually wears in TV. Supposedly orange not yellow.

I like these kind of topics where Arashi members talk about one another and what they think of each other. It's cute. Then you never know what could spill out...I refer to Nino's when Sho talks about Nino and Ohno

aww, this is so cute. but i dont want to answer. xDDDDDD


lolz. thanks so much for sharing. [bows]

Let's face it, we all love AiBaka.

I don't know much about aiba, and had no idea that he was a fast runner. lol that makes me jealous since I can't run at all since i have asthma. i'm tempted to see his works now though since i haven't seen any... don't know which one though..

^Aiba can run while singing (I've already try to do it, that's hard )
He runs during his solo when he forgets the dance steps .

I love MatsuJun answer to te 3rd question XD and Sho answer to the 6th "I always get confused to receive incoerent mails ex; 'I'd like sushi!'"

about the fast-runner.. you should watch johnnys sports festival or what it was called..dunno which year it was.. but there was a contest and arashi with tokio,v6 members and others i think made kind of a running contest.. there you will see how fast he is/was <.<
and yes, he also runs AND sings (like he wouldn't run at all) ... during concerts.. that boy has some stamina o.O

Yeah, Aiba does run a lot while he's singing. He must have a good control of his diaphram, 'cause I certainly can't run or walk while singing. So, kudos to Aiba for being able to do that w/o sounding all bouncy.
