Relationship amongst other JE groups vs. Arashi

Are there people who like other JE groups and watch their shows or other video clips? I'm just curious about how members from other JE groups act around each other compared to the members of Arashi.

Such as, the host of Hanamaru Cafe always comments how surprising it is for Arashi members to be such great friends. I just can't imagine anyone other than Ohno saying Nino is his favorite (when he was on Osama no Buranchi with Ikuta Toma).

Thank you!

I've watched Cartoon KAT-TUN, & other shows which have KAT-TUN & NEWS as guests, & Shounen Club. But I always get drawn back to ARASHI. I do notice that the other JE groups are close, but it still feels like they are not as close as the members of ARASHI. At times I feel like the other JE groups are just trying to make it look like they get along inside & outside of work. But for some reason I can feel that ARASHI has a genuine bond w/ eachother, whether they're on camera or in their private lives. Even when they are silently sitting next to eachother I still feel like they have a genuine bond.

I don't follow non-Arashi groups really - except Tackey & Tsubasa. And those two are close! Heart

TOKIO and V6 members do seem close too. And they are crack big grin

I used to watch some of their shows.

Thanks for the replies. smile

I always find it endearing when the Arashi members comment on/give looks at/do things to each other, just little idiosyncrasies. But I guess if JE groups have been around for so long, they really need to like each other in order to stay together. Thanks again.

i totally agree. i tried to give kat-tun, news and kj8 a spin, but there just seems to be something missing...the thing about arashi that makes their friendship believable is that they constantly pick on each other and NEVER pass up an opportunity to embarass each other like real friends tend to do...they know how to make each other laugh and they know how to piss each other off...they wrote songs for each other's 20th b-days, aiba said he brings back stuff from other countries he visits for the zoo show, sho brought back those head things from beijing...seems like having friends like them would be fun as mcgillicuddy

Thank you!

First I thought that the question is: If between the Arashi members and the members of other band are friends. Which is the question I will like to have an answer :P Specially if the KAT-TUN's members and Arashi's members are frinds. I know that they are rivals in charts... but maybe . I hope you understand what I mean.

I only watched some episod from KAT-TUN Cartoon and some clips with KAT-TUN....don't know what to say. I know that Jin and Kame were best friends , but after Jin comeback from USA, they aren't so close anymore. Don't know many things about the others blush

KAT-TUN and Arashi are friends...not really close friends, but they definatly get along...Jun said he goes out to drink with Nishikido Ryo and Jin sometimes and they get mad at him the more they drink XD

And Nino was whispering things to Kame while he was trying to talk...so they definatly get along...

arashi defiantly has a brotherly bond among them...they've been together for so long and have been through so much i think, the other groups just don't have the kind of chemistry arashi has and i think that's why. I think some of the other JE bands are kinda close but they have nothing on arashi^^ together forever i think

well, before i saw how the members in arashi were so close, i really thought that NEWS had the most member ai, haha. but in the end, they're kind of separated into 3 groups: yamapi and ryo (who have been friends since they were chibis), koyashige (who are bestfriends and hang out A LOT), and tegomassu (who make sure they go out once a week). but aside from those groups, koyama sort of hangs out with anyone and everyone in the group. yamapi, koyama and shige have been out a few times (yamapi's jweb) and koyama hangs out with tegoshi a lot too (news dvd). and i think yamapi, ryo and shige end up hanging out a lot coz (when ryo's in tokyo anyhow) they live near the city ir in the city.

NEWS is close but Arashi members are closer to each other!

Thanks for your answer! Glad to know that they are friends. Because I really like both bands :P
A plus for Arashi Heart

i don't follow many of the JE groups other than Arashi, KAT-TUN, NEWS, and occasionally Kanjani 8, but i always find that though the other groups are "close", it's not the same as the bond Arashi has. Like, the Arashi boys ALL get together and hang out, outside of work sometimes right? but the other groups, not so much.

Like with NEWS, it's mostly Ryo and Yamapi who hang together. then Shige and Koyama who hang together. never altogether as a group. like they're close...but not Arashi close.

so i think that they're bond is rather unique

i don't know much either about non-Arashi group in JE and how the bond between them. But i think if it's compare with KAT-TUN and News, Arashi has the most bound inside the group. Since the other two groups, they just started the group. They need more time to reach the bound level like Arashi now.
But that's just my opinion though.
