Arashi 'bullying' the interviewer...? xD

Translation, or rather, scanlation of TV Guide 2010.07.10-16! (Because the little illustrations that come with it are so cute!<3) So, TV Guide asked 3000 readers various questions about Arashi & they did a ranking thing, like Himitsu no Arashi-chan's Ranking Derby XD


Scans credit to sng :) Scanlation done by snow<3 Translated by me.

Examples of some of the questions asked:
Who do you want as you husband?
Who do you want as your lover?
Who do you want as your distant relative? (Er, wha? Lol)
Who do you want to see acting as a doctor?
Who do you want to see acting as a criminal?
Who has the best fashion sense? (We all know who doesn't xD *coughs*)
Who is a good liar? xD
...and more!!

Warning: Image INTENSIVE!

I suppose most of you have seen the pretty scans from the recent Only Star with Arashi on cover (the 2010.08.16 issue). So here's some behind-the-scenes snippets from the Only Star staff blog! They are all so cute! I kept going aww~ and I kept smiling when I was reading the blog :)) There are 6 entries, dates ranging from 2010.08.03 to 2010.08.07 :)

1. Why did Ninomiya-kun burst out laughing?
2. The solo song highly recommended by Sakurai!
3. A small hiccup happened during the interview!
4. Sakurai Sho asked Ninomiya for advice.
5. The Arashi members unconsciously want to be beside him!?
6. They are close even when they’re on the move♪

Bringing an old translation today~ Arashi used to have a regular column in Seventeen magazine called "Arashi no honjitsu Soukan" (roughly translated as "The first issue of Arashi is out today"). This column lasted for about 3 years, from 2002 to 2005.

The translation that I'm bringing today is from Seventeen's "Arashi no honjitsu soukan" Vol.53 featuring Sho (I don't know the issue date, but I'm guessing it's early 2005, sometime around March). Sho was asked: If you were to study for an exam with another member, how would it be like? The answers he gave are really amusing xD Lol.


Scans credit to ladysakurai :) Scanlated by me.

"I can imagine him doodling, drawing a portrait of the examiner or something."
