oh gosh i should have had this out quite a while back but i decided to go with doing up the post now :D
so these are just my views..from just watching...really wished i could read their history with utaban together...maybe one dayi will compile an utaban history :D ahhaha if i have time and if i am not that lazy...XD
but before doing this....decided to re-watch some episodes and watched episodes of other groups going on the show..so arashi's first appearance on utaban was in 2000 ...and they had gone on the show quite a bit...however there have been some years..which i guess were the dark years where they only appeared once..like in 2005 after almost a year O_O...and in 2006 which they appeared only once...but in other years thay have appeared more often..what really makes utaban special i guess is def the ohchanXnakai fights which are like the most famous fights on that show...and i think everybody who goes on most likely knows about these fights...XD>....and nakai will link any other "fight" on the show with any other group back to ohchan and his fights XD>..but enough about nakai * whom i love alot :D*....lets move to taka san....yes taka san..the one who feeds info and funny/crude/rude/hilarious remarks to ohchan who then opens his mouth to anger nakai XDDD>.....taka san i think loves arashi...and he really likes ohchan but seriously i really believe he has this special bond with arashi...which is kind of weird considering that there were times that they did not see them and yet its so endearing..
we all know that taka san has gone for arashi concerts...and he has brought his family..*thanks to sami san from vox and typepad for this info*....i think he brought his family last year if i am not wrong...but anyway he went...
so why do i think taka san loves arashi and how did it come about...
well to me...it has to do with arashi's character when they are on the show
1) they are game FOR ANYTHING...and they dont show attitude to what they have been asked to do..they have NO airs even when they became famous..they just do it..and they never or rarely look upset at all..this makes it all the more easier to relate to them......taka san/nakai will not hold back who they are and really open themselves more..well thats what i will do XD>..
2) they laugh very easily with him...ESP nino chan and sho chan they laugh at almost everything taka san says....its human nature that if you meet someone who is so easy going and your humor is on the same wave length...you will tend to be more comfortable with that person/group
3) the physical aspect...taka san is very touchy feely with ohchan...and visi versa...he is also with the rest of arashi BUT especially with ohchan......ohchan will voluntarily cling on him..or play with him..or like hug him...their arms are around each other..they pull each other..and seriously i have not seen taka san like that with any other groups or person...if they are please tell me :D i would love to know...i think this is a very important aspect of their relationship because when you are physically close to someone...it kind of creates this bond ? i dont know how to explain this but it really makes you more comfortable with that person esp if its reciprocated from both sides...and you would seriously care for that other person...
4) the whole skit comedy...i remember reading one mag...i think its like arashi's A-Z in some mag..and one of it was about how on utaban they do the fights..and i think jun was saying that when taka san first met ohchan he really liked him? or like felt comfortable with him...something like that *neeeds to go find the mag for accuracy XD*...but anyway the stuff that the 3 of them pull..i think its the way ohchan is...he just goes along with taka san to fight nakai san BUT...there is a difference...even though he has that "power" to just sprout what taka san says...he never takes it far..like he NEVER has that boastful look on his face that shows that " i can do this, while you all cant"...he never has it...in fact when he is not saying anything from taka san..he really shows respect...and i think they love him even more for that...he never takes advantage of this act/skit that they do..
5) they are all so cute :D hahah i am sure taka san thinks/thought so..arashi chan are very simple minded ppl esp on the show...aiba especially ...the way he talks is so innocent *though he is very street smart actually* but he really has no malice behind his words and ohchan too..<3 they are very down to earth and i guess that makes them even more lovable...then there is jun kun..though with all his fame is SOSO respectful to both of them...actually i find that with them he really becomes really happy and like he laughs so much and is like he becomes so son-like XD>..ahhaha XD i dont know what i am saying..sorry i am just so bad expressing all theseXD...then there is sho chan..who actually very quite on utaban..he does not talk unless he is talked to but gosh the way he holds himself has not changed since the past...he is still very sweet and gosh the looks he gives the guys are so endearing on the show XD>.and he is veryyyy game for anything and very happy to be made fun off even though he is like the smartest..and even nakai san is afraid of him...well....BUT sho chan does not put himself above anyone which is just <3 and then there is nino chan <333 i love nino on utaban XD because he is really so carefree and he is just so good at making the convos flow on the show that it COMPLIMENTS the MC...and the hosts...i have watched other groups where its either too quiet or way too noisy it can become irritating..but nino is just right to me at least...he is very good at making jokes and gosh i love his laugh xD <33 ok but anyway i think with nino chan in utaban..it really makes the sho much more smoother...
so how can you tell that he loves them ? :D other than going for their con...he actually loves their songs :D like a-ra-shi and beautiful days...when they put play backs during the shows..he actually lights up when it comes to arashi chan..and since the past he really has been really loving towards them..espcially ohchan..its really cute cause to me it looks like he and arashi have a father and sons relationship...its soooo cute...and the guys really take on that persona when they come to the show..they dont come as idols but they really come as genuine ppl. they would do what ever you want them to do..and they actually listen to what nakai advises them to do like making sure about how you must be concerned about everybody (audience) in a dome/large venue con. they really become like kids on the show ..which makes them so lovable even more.....
i was really sad that they have not gone on utaban for a while now....i saw kattun and hsj on the musical hour..but i dont know the feeling is not the same..its like a guest with a host....i like watching K8's one but...a bit too loud sometimes and they over power the hosts..and though its funny..there are some in the group who get left out sometimes....XD..but congrats to k8 going prime time with one of their shows <3......
well hopefully :D they will go on MH soon :D i heard that they mayy appear in the 3hr sp of MH coming soon.....but then again..dont know if its vtr or them physically there......well hopefully will be the latter ...but i dont know......
anyway these are just my views..and i may have my facts all messed up :D i know nakai and taka san also like morning musume last time*LONG TIME AGO*..but i dont know about now......i am just so happy that arashi chan invited taka san for their cons <3 they really dont forget ppl <3
goes-off-to-eat-totwi~
omgggggg TAKA-SANNNN <333 NAKAIIII <3 I LOVE UTABAN
Agreed so much. I'd watched utaban even before into Arashi and it is so true, the atmosphere is REALLY different. I used to watch NEWS and K8 guesting in it and it was like the usual talk, still entertaining but more than that Taka-san or Nakai took over the whole show. I know Taka-san like Arashi so much. I forever love how he or Nakai always try forced them to demo the dance of A.RA.SHI. And the namida chorori part lmao xDDD I think it's such privillage of him to actually remember one of their song <333 Goshhh I hope we can see them interact again some day on screen. I do hope it not just vtr. But if they will show us the past history with arashi in vtr I still quite pleased with it. OMG TOTWI-CHAN!! I LOVE YOUR POST TOPIC LIKE THIS. And your other posts too. I learn much from them :DDDD

Hi, Totwi-chan! As always, I loved reading all your entries. And I can't help but nod head, agreeing to everything that you say. When it comes to Rida, I feel like there's this "protectiveness" that emanates or comes out from anyone who meets him. Many people would like to take care of him, to hug him, to cuddle him or to simply hold him. There's a certain magic about him that makes people want to do that including us. Because I remember discussing this with friends before. With Rida and Aiba, you feel the need to protect them. It's like your motherly instincts come out. ^___^
Sorry for my long comment! The weekend is here. Enjoy it to the fullest!
INXS: Please wait for my email! Sorry tons of stuff to do still.

I just read the news. Not sure if it's true or not. But, since it's from yama-chan, should be true.
MUSIC HOUR IS END. OVER.

@yuuichan : *HUGGLES*...dont cry T_T <333....no just found out today to through yamakaze...but i guess its true...i kinda suspected it would not go for long actually cause the ratings were terrible even after they converted the format from utaban->tokuban->musical hour...it just didnt work out...so sigh...i kinda suspected that it will end its run soon...just did not know it would be so sudden...i guess thats why they are going to have that 3 hour special thing...it sucks..utaban has been on for so long..but i guess the ratings pushed it to take a kick out of the program line up...oh well...T_T..
dont be sad though...we will see what happens after this..maybe they will be given a different show ? another remake ? i dont know ne..but we will know on the day...T_T..it sucks...yup....
dont worry just say anything you want on this blog post ^_^ <3 dont worry ne...i am sure things will work out for that program or what it may become ..^_^ <3

Never mind Nakai for a while XDDDD
Ishibashii Taka ^ ^ he went to Arashi con? Which one? With his family? Do he has children?
Aaa.....I love Honami Suzuki [clearly in total shock when I knew about her n him O_O he3x]. Ne, totwi, tell us more about his family XDDDD . Gomen, many question keep poping out XDDD
Aside that. I know he like Arashi hi3x [who wouldn't? Especially Ohchan ^^, who can resit him], but to the point of taking his family to see the concert, is something ne. His relation with Arashi, is just like Ogu-san ^^
And I like how you write Arashi attitude in Utaban. Can't say anymore than what I've been read above ^ ^. All are sooooo true ^v^
Ohchan, though he always tried to go along with Taka-san, but he had his opinion n thinking after all. Remember, when he made a fun of Sho-kun's fan [when Sho-kun told to shake hand with her? The last ep when they went there ka na], Ohno-kun even told him not to do it XDD, and Arashi as one with their riidaa just went along with the teasing to Taka XDDD XDD Omoishiroi
OKay. Onto Nakai XDDD a bit XDDD well, more to Utaban. But, did Nakai really bring that whole NakaiXOhno when with the other guests too? XDDD
Only watched Utaban-Arashi ep, and one time with News n Kattun [even that coz they mentioned Nino n MatsuJun :P ]. But, ....... when it's over I only managed to say to my sister, "That's it? Only that? Tell me, where's the interesting part? Maybe I missed it". And my sister just laughed. Said like "well, ...well....that's that", and she used to be News's fan XDD, but now..a total Arashian [she's the fault to introduce me to this GoNin ..yay]. So, YES, Totally boring. At that time, I only thought, maybe I'm too biased. Too subjective coz I only watch Arashi's.
But, then I read yours opinion n others too. Aaa....so.....that's that. Almost the same with MS. There's this ep after Arashi's To Be Free, there's SMAP, HSJ, YUI, Breakerz, Becky, n who else there WaT?...... I forgot but, kiroii-san wrote about this [ka na?}....hmm.....Well, it's not that memorable, so...he3x. Totally BORING. No fun conversation going on there...>_< Why?? I love SMAP, YUI [well, she's YUI the quiet, Breakerz {Daigoooo why the silent??], Becky too...... Like she said, star-studded show. but, turned out as a silent-boring-star-studded show >_<
And, some ep, I watch KT or News ka? When they talked with Tamori-san, maybe they just run out of scripted-topic, and the signal to perform hadn't come, so...just...shiinnnggggg. Aaa......can't watch it.
That's why, I really am happy to read when Arashi's guested on music/variety show and the rating also goes well. It's another proof for their mark as national idol ne.
Music Lovers. Their is the highest.
Music Station. Always when Arashi went there, the rating went ....Zoooomm UP ha3x.
Sooo....subjective here.....dakara so glad, the rating is here as the proof fufufufu
E, this turned into somethig else XDDD Gomen ^ ^
Posted by: yuui1010 | 09/10/2010 at 02:36 PM
to fitrin: OMG yes. Almost forgot. That batsu A RA SHI game XDDDDDD
How many times did those 2 make Arashi sing A RA SHI??? XDDD One time, in one night they did it for 3/4 times [concert, encore n then Utaban] XDDDD
Taka-san even went as far told Nino to do it in his Tunnel show XDDD Even though Nino was not lose n yet still had to the batsu game XDDD. And when Sho-kun n jun-kun went there, they made them did a Arashi tech-colaboration....XDDD So, it's narrow down to Ohchan n Aiba-chan XDDD [Jun even said he'll warn themXDDD] Totally, laughing there XDDDDD
Posted by: yuui1010 | 09/10/2010 at 02:59 PM
Remember one thing about the song. Taka's one of fave: Beautiful Days.
Jun was saying, even the newspaper/magz wrote their lyrics, as chorori. Coz Taka-san kept saying it XDDDDD To me it's really hilarious.
To-chan gomen....I'm spamming your coment box XDDDD
Posted by: yuui1010 | 09/10/2010 at 03:05 PM
hey Yuui chan <3 :D so sorry i replied so late T_T..fell sick after i went for dinner.....food issues... and dont worry about spamming ;D <3 heheh i love your comments :D very fun to read your thoughts ^____^ <3...ok let me look through..
ok i think taka san went to last year's con with his family..this year i think only him.
and nope i think this fight thing is seriously only in arashi XD>.as in this format...of taka X ohno X nakai X 4arashi ...
oh yes and i saw that ep T_T...on MS..with SMAP san and the rest..and gosh yup boring to me too T_T...it was how do you say..very quiet and not very funny...i dont know why ppl were not talkig O_O...
