Leiyah’s Rants

Hi guys! Since I'm getting a bit lazy and tired on jumping from one blog to another to look for my past fanfics, I'm going to consolidate all my fanfics in this area for faster access.. Please do support my fanfics. I love to receive comments from fellow Vox members..

Finally! What I've been waiting for! I found this video somewhere and downloaded the file. No need to expound on this more since we are talking about Arashi here.. This is the latest AU cellphone CM, which of course, starred Arashi.. I loved the phone Sho had.. Lolz! The part where Aiba made very careful movements to avoid the alligator made me laugh so hard! I'm gonna post the actual AU CM and the making of the CM. I also added some bits of the AU CM series.. There's one of Jun and Aiba, Sho and Ohno.

Enjoy and please do comment ^_^ Anyway, to those who are interested to visit the main website for AU phones, visit here.

[2008.04.02] Got all Arashi AU KDDI ads. Enjoy them! I do love the CM of Sho and Ohno.. Lolz! I don't mind being carried away like that as long as the one who caused it is any of the Arashi members..

Hai~ Thanks to Liu Xing Girl who tipped me off regarding this offer from YesAsia.

You read it right minna.. YesAsia is now offering an additional 24-jikan terebi (24 Hour TV) T-shirt together with the Pikanchi A to Z Arashi no Pikanchi Double na Hibi or Arashi 04150515 Arashi no Pikanchi na Hibi for an additional price.. Actually, a single order of the photobook would amount to $30.49 while those with T-shirt is worth $67.49. IT'S HALF THE PRICE OF THE PHOTOBOOK! T_T It's your choice minna ^^ Check YesAsia for more details ^^

At it was told.. Looks like the drama of Nino having a new drama is confirmed. The drama will be aired on October (I haven't seen the date but it'll be in Friday) by TBS at 10PM. Thanks to marienella_m from D-addicts, sweathoneyeah of LJ and kikinini of Vox ^^

Nino Kazunari (Koichi) will be the eldest brother, with very good brains, the mastermind of scheming all the plans! Ryo Nishikido (Taisuke) will be the younger brother who wears various costumes as his technique and Toda Erika (Shizuna) will play as their sister and will use seduction.

Screenwriters will be Kudo Kankuro of IWGP, Kisarazu Cat's Eye, Tiger and Dragon etc.

Exciting neh?! First was Maou with Riida and Toma then this.. I wonder when will Aiba star in his own drama.. Better yet.. When will Arashi have their own drama?! Lolz!

No long posts.. Just straight photo and some random silliness.. Thanks to cream00 from Gaiaonline for sharing this pic ^^ Oh.. To those who have Gaiaonline.com accounts, please add me up (kei_chan) and join our guild "Mirai no Arashi" ^^ Anyways.. Ever wondered where Patrick (from Spongebob Squarepants) is from? If ever there's a chance that Oh-chan can see this post, I'm sure he;ll go either "Eh?" or he'll simply laugh.. Lolz! This really made me laugh out loud this morning!

Miyazaki Hayao

Ok.. You may think why I am so excited over such matter.. FYI.. Being an anime otaku that I am, Hayao Miyazaki is my most looked upon director and animator. His skills and creativity on movies and manga range from great to grand. Of course this is my personal opinion of him.. The way he answers frankly and honestly on interviews help people see more into his creative side. His works are not only directed to children, but also to those who are child at heart.

To those who doesn't have any ideas as to who Hayao Miyazaki is.. If you are an anime fan and watches a whole lot of anime films, I'm sure you've came across a production called "Stusio Ghibli".. Studio Ghibli had been with us since younger days and Miyazaki-kun is one of Studio Ghibli's co-founder. To add, he's the one who created (and directed) famed Studio Ghibli anime movies. To mention, some are: "Nausicaa of the Valley of the Wind", "Howl's Moving Catle", "My Neighbor Totoro", "Kiki's Delivery Service", "Spirited Away" and "Princess Mononoke". The list still goes on and on..

This year, Miyasaki's back and this time he pulled away from the use of computers and technology-driven animation. He decided to return to pencil anime movies and finally, he will release his full-length film in four years. The movie is inspired from "The Little Mermaid" and entitled "Ponyo on the Cliff by the Sea".

As an anime fan and film lover, Miyazaki-san never failed to impress me. I love his films not only because of its simplicity but also of the morals taught. Not only they apply for children.. Whenever I watch his creations, there's this tug at my childlike personality.. It reminds me of my younger days and to add, for adults or young adults who watches his films may get a deeper insight on his creations.. Try watching his films for about two to three times and you'll get what I mean ^^

Ken Hirai - Fakin' Pop [Cover]

Hirai Ken - 01 Pop Star [Fakin' Pop 03.12.2008]

Hirai Ken

*I wanna be a pop star
Kimi wo motto
Muchuu ni sasete ageru kara ne
Kirakira no pop star
Hane wo hiroge
Mahou wo kakete ageyou
[I wanna be a pop star
and be more to you
I’m lifted from the ground in a daze
A sparkling pop star
I spread my wings
and do my magic]

**I wanna be your pop star
Kimi wo gyutto
Dakishimete ageru kara oide
Kirakira no pop star
Hane wo hiroge mahou wo kakete ageyou
Kimi dake ni
[I wanna be your pop star
try harder for you
so come here so I can hold you
A sparkling pop star
I spread my wings and do my magic
just for you]

Kakushite itai kurayami mo
Kimi wa sotto hiroi agete
Taisetsu na boku nan dato
Dakishimete kureta
Hikari he to tsuduku michi wo aruite yukou
Kizu kabau kono migite wa
Kimi to te wo tsunagu tame ni
[I want to hide in darkness
and have you pick up me gently
If I’m imporatant to you,
then hold me tight
I keep walking this road, towards the light
Using my right hand to protect you from pain
so that I can hold you with my other hand]

You’re gonna be my pop star
Boku wo motto
Muchuu ni sasete yo hohoende
Kirakira no pop star
Sono hitomi de boku ni mahou wo kakete
[You’re gonna be my pop star
and be more to me
You smile in a daze
A sparkling pop star
In your eyes, I do my magic]

You’re my only pop star
Boku wo gyutto
Dakishimetara mou hanasa nai
Kirakira no pop star
Sono hitomi de boku ni mahou wo kakete
Ima sugu ni
[You’re my only pop star
try harder for me
Hold me, and don’t let go
A sparkling pop star
Right now, in your eyes,
I do my magic]

Koi ni ochitara
Daremo ga dareka no pop star
Kami-sama ga boku ni kudashita
Shimei wa kimi dake no HIIROO
[As you fall in love
anybody can be anyone’s pop star
As God himself came down upon me
My destiny was to be a hero, just for you]

*Repeat
**Repeat

Additional Ramblings mode.. KYYAA~ Now.. Arashi fans.. Admit it.. These lyrics are either: (1) What you wanna sing to Arashi or (2) What you wanna hear them sing to you.. I want to see Arashi on stage with Ken Hirai! Hell, I would love to hear a song from Arashi AND Hirai-san!

I know most of you have heard of MatsuJun's birthday bash which is supposed to happen on the 30th of August (Saturday).. To add, this is also celebrate the 4th year of Tsinoy's Arashi thread. I've communicated with Rina (jcrina of tsinoy) and got some details for the MatsuJun party. I know the party is still a month away but this one's gonna be one heck of a partey~! To those who want to know more about the party, feel free to join Arashi Tsinoy.

So.. What's up with the party?

The place will still be in Mandaluyong and party would start at around 4PM. They chose the place since it's somewhat the 'in between' location for those who are coming from North or South. It's open for everyone and all JE supporters (not just Arashi.. JE..) are invited to attend the said bash. Take note of the following though:

GUESTS:

1. Required to pay PhP 200 as contribution. Payment would be on August 30th.
   
2. Will attend the said celebration on the 30th.
   
3. Be as happy and flail at most possible time.

What else?

Aside from the fact that there will be too much MatsuJun love, Arashi SAP will help sponsor the said celebration. I've agreed with Rina on this manner and she's willing to accept Arashi SAP in the party. Here are other things which I've communicated with her:

1. Brownies. The photo borwnies. I'll be taking charge of the pictures and ordering process.
2. 2 tarpaulins. One of MatsuJun and another of Arashi.
   

As of now, these are the only details. Of course, since we are part of the sponsoring team, we will be hsouldering some expenses.. Chotto.. Before anyone hits me.. I'm willing to shoulder the expenses.. The tarps and brownies (which Rina told me that she's willing to help finance) will be provided by us and goodies will be provded to those who will attend the celebration. I'm not forcing any of the Arashi SAP members to give me money but to those who can help me finafcially, plese do help out.. Hehehe.. The Arashi Tsinoy staff wanted to make this a huge success and I'm willing to help them out. If you can't give donations for the sponsorship,  please do attend the said celebration. Again, 4PM onwards..

Rina, me and the rest of the organizers will meet around July for further planning. Deadline of confirmation of attendance will be on June 30 (Monday). Let me know if you guys will be attending and I will inform Rina of Arashi SAP members attendees.. So far, here are the list of those who will attend the said event:

Something so funny and silly that it deserves a solo post this day.. Lolz! I was laughing like crazy when I received this!

Silly Sho-suki

It's something I wanna put on a dialog.. Lolz! My version:

Sho: How do I look? -Saw camera- Shimatta.. -Hides-

Lolz!

Arashigoto

I was so ecstatic after receiving the photo book! Actually I was a bit pissed off at first since the mailman didn't delivered it right in our office.. I have to go out and claim the parcel from the post office.. To add, it started raining while I was on my way.. But then, as soon as I had the parcel in my hand, I immediately opened it and.. Voila! ARASHIGOTO!

I don't have any ideas on how to scan the images though T_T Poor me but then, I'll be posting the translations here! The photo book contains a lot of Arashi pics from 1999-2005. Yes, it's a back issue but who cares?! Lolz! A very interesting photo book indeed.. I can't place everything here in once bunch since it's gonna be a long.. Long entry.. Imagine.. A.M.N.O.S 10,000 words interview.. Lolz! Get ready to read, minna!

Thanks to say_it_again @ LJ for the translations and links!
