This is a very ROUGH translation of what they've posted so far. Please note that I am not proficient in Japanese yet but I've done my best, so I hope it helps:

Finally, Arashi appears in a prime time regular show! TBS's Thursdays @ 10pm will never be the same again! Nine years after their debut, and for the first time since their last regular appearance on TBS's USO!? Japan (2001-2003), the five members will investigate on behalf of young adults/teenagers, all the mechanisms behind the secrets of the puzzling adult society in this new 'social studies variety'. Starting with Arashi's Leader Satoshi Ohno, who recently held the exhibition with his personal photography and clay workmanship and whose attention is focused in his talent as an artist. The smart person of the group, Sho Sakurai, who starred in TBS's 'Yamada Taro Monogatari' and who also serves as newscaster for an evening news program. Kazunari Ninomiya, starred in Johnny's first Hollywood debut 'Letters From Iwo Jima' which expanded their exposure in foreing countries. Aiba Masaki, the member whose talent in 'natural' charm and speaking manner has bloomed even within many variety shows. And, as for Jun Matsumoto, participating with remarkable success in several dramas including HYD which is now scheduled for its movie release. Respectively, each has rare talent but, when Arashi assembles in one single place 'they would like to make a program never seen before' therefore each member will show their best enthusiasm. Thursday's @ 10pm, a new wind will be created from TBS!

Presenters:

Arashi
Ohno Satoshi
Sakurai Sho
Aiba Masaki
Ninomiya Kazunari
Matsumoto Jun

To me, it sounds rather a lot like D/G no Arashi which is a fantastic thing and: NO REGULAR GUESTS MENTIONED!!!

That sounds great!! I really can't wait for this to start and I really hope they do away with regular guests and just let Arashi do it alone!!

I've said this so many times this year, but thank god the year for Arashi is FINALLY here.

...I'm sorry? Yes, I get that it's a good year with the dome tour and Ohno's art book out. But I don't think you could possibly say that previous years weren't theirs. I mean, they did an Asian tour! Nino was in a Clint Eastwood movie! They've released at least 2 singles every year, and half the time they've released 3. They've had non stop work in variety shows and stage plays and dramas. this isn't the first year I've heard of Arashi selling out all their concert tickets before public sale. It's hard to imagine them being MORE popular smile

But yes, i'm totally on board for this new show, but will it replace either GRA or ANS-k? The name gives me the horrible feeling it will replace ANS-k if anything, but... I like that one much better than GRA. *sigh* And I don't think I want them in 3 variety shows at once, you know? I get the feeling they're worked to death and have absolutely no free time. That's why they always eat on their shows, because they dont have time to eat otherwise!! haha, seriously though, these boys work too much!

That being said, I can't wait to see the new show. If it IS a little more like D/G no Arashi I will be a very happy girl!

The focus on certain parts of their anatomy not withstanding, I am looking forward to this even if I do not understand much Japanese. Sometimes, the guys are funny enough regardless as to their actions. Until the show pops up, I shall suffer nosebleeds from the CM of this show.

When I first saw that video I thought 'What's written in their pants when that one girl opened it?' WTH

She kinda blushed when she opened that zipper on the poster. blush

But that is a good way to get the fan's attention. big grin

LMAO! The advertisement is genius. I haven't seen the clip yet but I've seen screen shots.

It's definitely an effective way to get fans intention.. XD

I'm so glad that Arashi has a new TV show. What a great way to start a new year. Unfortunately for someone like me living in this side of the world, I can't get to watch it... cry

I think you can watch it live if you have the program KeyHoleTV. just have to synchronize with the time in your country and japan time, and know the channel it's showing on smile

lol, thanks for posting that link jenshinnn big grin

Matsujun's secert is so appropriate, considering where it's written. I don't understand Aiba's ^^;? A mob and a remote control? *confused* And Nino - that's not a secert!

Hmmm I think there are clearer translations here:

I'm quoting the secrets part from there:

Ninomiya Kazunari
To be honest, lately, I've been using a vinyl bag.

Aiba Masaki
The number of times I've mistaken my TV remote for my cellphone and taken it out with me: four times.

Sakurai Sho
I don't know how to tie my own necktie.

Matsumoto Jun
In actuality, my fly is unzipped pretty often too.

Ohno Satoshi
To be honest, even now I'm still afraid of Nostradamus' prophecy. [T/N: I'm assuming he means the one about the world ending in 2012.]

So with these translations, it would be that Aiba sometimes bring his TV remote control thinking it's his cellphone. That would make sense no? XD
