Waterfall & Wings Version 1

Enbujo finished its run without any problems today!!! (or rather, yesterday since it's way past midnight) Special guests were dai-senpai Matchy and Uekusa Katsuhide (Shonentai) and they presented bouquets of flowers to Takki. Takki sang an extra song tonight which made the theatre became like a concert hall because.... he sang Love Spiral!!! LMAO~~~ He sure knows how to pick moriagari songs. ^^ I think there were about 2-3 curtain calls?? Then Takki said he wants to do concerts next. I am assuming it's unit con. Hora, hora kiteru!!!!! GIRLS, START SAVING EVERY SINGLE CENT NOW!!!! (Actually, i don't think i ever stopped saving for Takki. LMAO~~) Matchy said something real nice about Takki which translates to something like this... i hope i dun get it wrong!!

The staff asked me to say something here but Takki already gave such an
excellent address... he properly acknowledged and thanked everyone of the near 300 staff and also the cast members. I think I have got a very good junior.

Thanks to fellow Takki fans on Ray's bbs for the reports! Actually Kaori-san (Yoshitsune's director) also said something very nice about Takki too. Will post about this and more details later! And oh!! How can i forget this...

THEY WILL BE DOING ENBUJO AGAIN NEXT YEAR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

p/s: Girls, any plans to turn vegetarian now?? LOL~

[Edit]

Hmm, it's weird but how come Blogger no longer lets us change the date and time of the post?? Is it just me and Loracyn where our option bars just disappeared?? Dithers? Bonnie?? Yvie?? Anyway... LOTSA stuff about Enbujo to update, so to save time and prevent myself from "derailing", it will be in point form. LOL~ Supposedly, it will be more "to the point", or so i was taught in school... many years ago.

- Other than Matchy and Uekusa Katsuhide, Hasegawa Jun also went to see the last show. (Ooh, it's kinda like great-grandfathers with great-grandson going together. But say... Hasegawa is about the same batch as Takki desho? Or no wait.. he's Yamap's batch. Jaa, great-grandson is right. XD)
- The announcement that they will do Enbujo again next year, after April (Girls, NOTE DOWN THE DATE!!) was first made by Matchy and not Takki. Hahaha~~ What an eager senpai. ^^ Takki was like "Eeh?? Hontou desu ka?". I think he already heard of the plan but it was only when Matchy made the announcement that it became official. Then on the wideshows, there was this junior standing behind Matchy (i tried to look him up in the pamplet but aiyaa, yappari, the juniors all look the same to me.. LOL So i dunno WHO he is...) whose face went like "ooohhh!!" when the announcement was made. XDD
- Matchy was soooo funny!! He told Takki he has a request after he made the announcement. "Next year, I have no work except for my live concert at the Budokan on 14 Feb... if... if there's a role which can get by without dancing... i will like to participate." Hahahahaa~~~~
- Through Enbujo, Takki not only grew mentally stronger, he grew physically too! His shoulders apparently widen by 5cm (from all the stunts and flying) and they had to redo his costumes THRICE throughout the course of the 2 months!!! O_O Sasuga Takki!!!! But as an eye witness, his BICEPS were also really oohlalah!!! Loracyn was sooo smitten by them and canNOT stop staring... hahha, ask her. XD
- Takki said that when the fire occurred last month, he was very shocked. But as the zachou, he realised he must be strong and hold it together for the rest. The Enbujo crew and cast managed to unite and overcome the crisis, deepening their bond. From the incident, they benefited a lot as well.
- The usual crowd at Shinbashi Theatre previously were people in their 50-60s. But for Enbujo, the age range of the audience stretched from the usual Johnny's fans to people in their 80s!! Kitagawa said that yappari "it was worthwhile to do it in Shinbashi". He wants to "protect Enbujo even for next year". ^^
- Because Enbujo was rich in "Japanese essence", it garnered quite a reputation even with foreigners (who me? LOL) and there are apparently offers from Las Vegas to stage the show there!!!! WOAAAHHHHH~~~~~~~ TAKKI SAIKOU!!!!!! There were also requests to stage the shows in other parts of Japan. *^-^*
- The general tone of the online reports as well as WS was about how Takki and the Enbujo cast and crew managed to survive the fire and bounced back stronger. Ureshii wa~
- Fans were commenting how cute Takki was when he had to coax his fans who kept yelling for him during the curtain call... LOL. I can SO IMAGINE him doing it. It is soooo Takki-rashii!! I love being his wagamama fan. Because he totally LOVES US BACK. Muahahhaha~~~ Yappari he is of GREAT PAPA material. *hugsss*

Takki: Don't worry, we will meet again ne. At the concert. I want to do it ne. But my head is full with Enbujo stuff that I cannot think about anything else yet.
Fans: EhhhHH~~~
Takki: Ok soon, soon! I will do it soon dakara!

KA.WA.II~~~~~ *blushes* And the fact that most of the audience there then were all at least in their twenties or older but Takki took on this tone as if he was talking to young little girls. Hahahha~~~ moe moe jyan!! WHO CAN WITHSTAND TAKKI'S COAXING?!? It was the same during his solocon when he asked us to be patient when Hidezo was delayed due to snowstorm. Oooohhh, yes, Takki. You are forgiven. ^^

Online news: Daily Sports, Nikkan Sports, Sanspo, Yomiuri

Tsuba-himesama finally makes his her appearance at Enbujo in the afternoon today!!! ^-^ With the Empress Dowager (aka Kazuchan) in tow. LMAO~~~ I seriously YELPED OUT ALOUD when i saw the news on Ray's BBS. I wonder if they planned to go together or was it just a coincidence... Muahaha~ Anyway, Takki must be chou very happy today! (Imagines his nikoniko face... kawaiiii~)

Takki apparently introduced Tsubasa in the beginning and did a Venus sign?? Muahahha... Lucky folks who went for the afternoon show today. Tsuba went up to do Venus with Takki but didn't say much. XDD (Shy kana?) Then, Mori Mitsuko, Ono and Aiba (Arashi) went for the evening show. And during Venus, Higashiyama suddenly appeared on stage to do the Venus furi too?? LMAO~~ The Japanese fans are saying yappari Mori Mitsuko and Higashiyama come as a set. Say, isn't this Higashiyama's 2nd time already? Or maybe he's just personal escort to Mori Mitsuko. XDDD Arararaa, now i wonder, who's left for the senshuuraku? Or mebe it will be like DB Osaka, where there were no special guests and Takki had all the attention. Sore demo ii kedo! ^-^

And there were DVD cams in the theatre today!!!! But no one is sure if they were already recording or just preparing for recording the next day... Gaah!!! PLEASE RELEASE THE DVD!!!! Onegai, onegai, onegai!!!

Thanks to my bonus (which i think i totally deserved it.. hmph), I was able to go for Enbujo which I had initially thought will be totally MURI. I mean, it is just *THREE MONTHS* after Takki solocon yo... And it is still so cold!!!!!!

でもね、やっぱりね、「滝沢演舞城」を観に行ってよかった！！^^

Living in Takki's castle is so SHIAWASE~~~~ Everything was Takki, Takki, and more Takki!!! And he is the best master anyone can have! (I think Okura from K8 has totally fallen in love with him by now. And of course Yoko, who has been harbouring a crush on Takki??! LOL~) 殿！！一生ついてますからね！！

I realised how DIFFICULT it is to write a report about Enbujo. And I am BAD at writing reports from the start. Cos i always digress MAJORLY. And I am a scatterbrain. Not good with details. And def cannot rem chibi jrs. So if you are here looking for chibi jrs' news, you can leave now. XDD The rest, pls bear with me. m(__)m

Like I said, unlike DB, Enbujo has no one linear plot, but consist of many stories. The Japanese are well-acquainted with these popular folklores (guess you can call them that) since young but as a non-native, most of them are unknown to me. Maa, the one i know best is Yoshitsune but in Enbujo, the section about Yoshitsune was apparently about "a Yoshitsune no one knows". There you go. I know NOTHING about Enbujo then. (Except the showtime??) LMAO~~ I actually have to do a lot or research and reading up to write this report. Gawd~~ if only I was doing this when I was in school. Hahaha~~ So actually, Enbujo was really educational. In fact, they even had school groups going to watch! (Loracyn, i think this is the reason for the "mysterious queues" we see outside the theatre.) Of course, they had to take the 3rd floor seats but IMAGINE GOING FOR A TAKKI MUSICAL FOR YOUR SCHOOL EXCURSION!!!!!! XDDDD What I heard was they only put aside 50% of the seats for FC and the rest was saved for public sales so that more people (non-Johnny's fans) have a chance to watch it. I think usually for JE events, there will only be public sales if any tickets are still left over after FC balloting, which is mostly... none (or damn lousy seats). =_= *the woes of an overseas fan* This trip was entirely for the sole purpose of watching Enbujo which explains why it was so short. T-T Gawd!! The Jimusho should EMPLOY ME ALREADY!! i will be a VERY HARDWORKING T&T reporter. My dream job. I can double up as a translator for Takki when he starts filming with Jackie Chan too!!! Then i will actually ENJOY TOTALLY what i am paid to do. *sigh* ok, side-tracking here...

We managed to secure tickets to 3 shows through the help of my very kind Japanese friend before the trip. Wise move. Because there wasn't a single scalper around after the fire. I wonder why. Anyway, 3 outta 5 nights we were watching Enbujo. We were living in the his castle alright. My Japanese friend kept saying "You are crazy!!" Hahahha~

My precious tickets. And they all look different!! LOL~
I was even checking the serial number behind the Lawson one (with ref to the warning put up on J-net) to make sure it is not a counterfeit! Haha~~

Approaching the Shinbashi Theatre for the first time, felt so surreal.. KYAAH!! Can't believe we made it!!! I can SMELL Takki yo!!! =333 I wonder if Takki is looking at us from that row of black windows...

The front entrance of Shinbashi Theatre and it is actually quite small. Yappari it feels like a building with a long history ne (80+ yrs??), with all the brown bricks. The inside of the building is very new though. I think they just refurnished.

A HUGE Enbujo poster. Uwaaahh, i feel so proud like a mama is of her boy. ^^

There was this konbini run by an obaasan just next to the theatre and she was playing "Venus" single. Hahaha~ And oh!! We found this Enbujo parody on one of the stands nearby as well... LOL~

Tada!! Hahahha! Using the exact same design of the Enbujo poster but instead of the kanji "Takizawa Enbujo", they wrote "Hiraizumi Yoshitsune Ozen" (Ozen or Gozen is a formal way of calling a bento/meal set). Smart! *thumbs up* But you can see that the people have really acknowledged Takki's portrayal of Yoshitsune if not nobody will understand the meaning of this poster desho??? Ureshiiii~~ ^^

Once inside Shinbashi Theatre Takizawa Castle, it was a bustle of activities! People were rushing about to buy the special bento sets, magazines that featured Enbujo, Enbujo merchandise, and squeezing to take a good look at the panels of stage pictures and deciding which ones to get cos they were so expensive!! (500yen PER PIC!!) Then of cos, trying to snap pictures of the Enbujo poster, Amino Collagen stand etc etc... We were a bit lost on Day 1. XDD

The bento set specially created and only available at Enbujo!! It is called 滝こみご飯弁当 (Takki komi gohan bento) loosely translated as "Takki bento set". ("komi" means something like "included") KYAAH!!!! It has Takki (love) in it!! I think he said this is his favourite from the menu? Muahahha... 1500yen each! Pretty luxurious and expensive but how could we miss it?? XDDD Say, i forgot if the Yoshitsune bento set was more expensive... I think there was also a soba set but we didn't try that... Many people were eating their bento set during the 35min intermission but we all waited until we reached our hotel to savour it. Heheh~~ Oishikatta yo!! (Thou the rice turned a bit hard from the cold... XD)

Everyone was trying to snap a shot of the Enbujo posters inside the castle with their keitais or cameras. Silly, cos we were initially trying to hide our cameras in our bags but apparently they do not care. Haha~ 3 baka worrywarts. Been to too many concerts kana?? Similar posters were put up at the Metro Higashi-ginza station near the theatre as well. Gaah, they should just change the name of the station to 滝沢城 for the 2 months. That will be UBER COOL!! Anyway, i WISH i own a Japanese keitai. I was looking at the Japanese snapping away and one of them, HER KEITAI CAMERA CAN ZOOM IN SO MUCH MORE CLEARLY THAN MY DIGI CAM!!! Huh???! =__=

They were selling the Amino Collagen products inside as well! I tried the drink. Heehee~ It was not bad! It has this little bitter aftertaste but is otherwise nomiyasui!! And PINKU ne, yappari suits Takki. ^-^

They were also selling Takki and T&T related stuff like Yoshitsune DVD sets, Venus single, Kanjani8's albums etc. Hmm.. don't rem seeing Satoken DVD... if not I might have snapped... how much is it again??

Anyway, the crowd ne. Mostly females but I have also spotted families (with the dad in tow) as well as mother-daughter gumi!! ^-^ And there were quite a number of okaasan and obaasan figures!! Muahahhaha, 義経効果 kana?? And they don't lose out to us in terms of anticipation and excitement yo! I remembered seeing quite a few VERY HAPPY AND EXCITED OBAASANS when Takki went near them during the performance and they all waved to him like little girls. LOL~~ So heartwarming yo!

Oh dear, i think yappari i will need more than one entry. I have already rambled so much and Takki hasnt't even 登場 yet. Hahahha, gomen gomen! Guess I will post this up first and leave the rest for another post!! お楽しみにしてください！^^

Before i start writing my report on Enbujo, i realised MANY people have went to watch it! Many people as in JE boys and VIPS from the industry alike. Very happy that so many people went to support Takki, or so I would like to believe that's their motive is anyway. Heheh. Not an exhaustive list but here are the names of some of them whom I am pretty sure went, in no particular order.

- Ken Miyake (V6)
- Domoto Koichi (Kinki)
- Higashiyama Noriyuki
- Kato & Tegoshi (NEWS)
- KATTUN (not sure if Jun and Maru went as well, but the other 4 definitely did)
- Actor Takahashi Hideki and his family (the one who acted as the kind Fujiwara Hidehira in Yoshitsune)
- One of Yoshitsune's director Kaori-san
- Famous scriptwriter Uchidate Makiko
- Minato Koichi (some senior mgmt staff from Fuji TV)
- Famous actor Nakamura Shinjiro from one of the important kabuki clans (I wonder if any from the Hanayagi clan went, the one Takki learnt his Buyo moves from)
- A group from the popular Takarazuka Revue (@_@''' but perhaps to also support one of their own, the girl acting as Kozue, or is it the mum? Haha~ One of them anyway)
- Some very senior mgmt staff from Toho (東宝), this famous movie production house (i am sure most of us will be familiar with this company's logo if you watch enough Japanese movies)
- Cast from Yoshitsune (including Kisanta, Jiro and Shizuka XDD)
- Kanjani8 (not sure who haven't went... but Subaru definitely did XDDD And i am DARN curious what he wrote in his diary to re-ignite the flame in TS fans.. hurhur)
- One whole slew of chibi juniors

I have this impression that i read somewhere that Ueda and Teppei (Cream Stew) already went too. Has Kazu-chan went? What about Mori Mitsuko and Kuronagi Tetsuko, since they both adore Takki so much? OMG, it will be the battle of the 3 obaasans then. LMAO~ Thou im pretty sure Kazu-chan will win hands down. Wonder if Jackie Chan stayed long enough in Japan to watch... Has Yamap went to see his dad?? And TSUBASA-HIMESAMA... Are you saving your grand entrance for the last?? XDDD Wonder if Matsuken Daira will turn up too... or is he too preoccupied with his just (re)married life? XD Has Matchy went? What about the Arashi boys?? I mean hello, Matsujun is a big Takki fan...

You know it's becoming a bit like Takki's examination musical. LOL~ He must be pretty darn stressed. Heard he was very nervous when he found out that Higashiyama was in the audience. Hahah~ But i love the fact that Takki's getting so much support. For being the person he is, he DESERVES all the love and support from them and all of us.

Then there was this reporter from Fuji TV's Mezamashi News who went to watch and she wrote her reviews on her online diary here.

I was invited by my friend to watch Takizawa Hideaki's "Takizawa Enbujo". At first I was wondering will we be very "extra" in the crowd, since most of the fans are young girls. But turned out there were many obaasans as well. The musical, from the moment it started, was full of surprises. The moving images that were used to enhance the visual effects, the magic tricks that got me fixated, the bungee stunts done right above the audience. The whole structure and performance was entirely a new form of entertainment and something that will attract even those who are not interested in period dramas. On the stage, the Johnny's Jrs work very hard for the performance and I began to have motherly thoughts like "from this group, our future idols will be born ne". But Takizawa-san is really sugoi! I realised anew, this person has amazing talents. He lets us be mesmerised by him. And we allow him to mesmerise us totally. The same person doing the feminine moves as well as masculine moves, he executed both brilliantly. I realised keenly that to achieve this, it is not enough just having great stamina but passion as well. (When I see Takizawa-san) on TV, I remember him as someone who has a very endearing smile and cute boy. But the Takizawa-san that I see on stage, he is totally a first-rate entertainer. Hats off to his professionalism. I received much inspiration/stimulus from him!

My Japanese ain't that kanpeki, but this is roughly what she said. To hear this from a non-fan, a non-Johnny's fan... i am sooo proud of Takki. *beams* It's true that Takki is no longer the top idol that he used to be, but you know idols don't last long. And I think he has surpassed that stage and moved on to something better. Let's all continue to support him!!! XDDD

Oh dear, i'm so motherly today. Hahaha~~

I will be on hiatus until mid of next week!

早く言わないのが悪いけど、i am flying off to Takkiland to watch Enbujo in a few hours!! XDDD Sou, ima kara "Enbujo Sakusen" wo barechaimasu. I think keeping this trip a secret has been very successful... haha~ I am trying to not even let my dad know! I hope he doesn't come home THIS weekend, so i can sneak away and come back without him even realising. If not, he will start nagging at me again, "Why are you always going Japan??! You should go China, go and learn about history, blah blah blah...". -_- My ma said she wun tell him unless he asked. Yosh.. ahhaha! Even my own brother didn't know til just now! It was so funny telling him. He was just smsing me about getting a new mobile plan subbed under mine...

Bro: "Eh.. if i apply xxx phone plan can put under your name?"
Me: "As long as you pay, i dun care... but i'm going Japan, back only next week. So anything, wait until then. And unless absolutely necessary, dun tell pa i'm going! Hahah......."
Bro: "OMG! When u going? Tml? Then when can you go with me (to sign up for the plan)?"
Me: "I'm leaving in a few hours! Don't tell pa ah! Haha~ I quitted my job ler so now quite free. Can go with you anytime."
Bro: "OMG!!! You quit and neva tell pa? Aiyo..."

# Pardon the Singlish, i'm talking with my own bro! XDD

I just thought my bro's reactions are so hilarious! LMAOOO~~~ Anyway, pls forgive me for not telling about this trip but I have my reasons. I am sure some of you can understand. :) But I will bring everyone's love to Takki and try to write a repo of it when i come back!! Otanoshimi ni shite kudasai!!

To Jam: Waah, ur email was really full of anger. But i can understand, really. *patspats* I am no KATTUN fan but i feel sad for them too. Those pple need to grow up... fast! Sorry i can't reply you before i go, but it's weird you asked if im gg to see Takki.. ahhaha... I AM!! Will reply you when i get back. Hope their concert on 15th will go FINE. And yea, i am officially claiming Kame as my 小不倫対象. You can have Jinjin in the meantime. LOL~ *runs away from Akame fans*

To Dithers and Yvie: Gomen!! No time to reply your emails but will do when i get back! *winks*

To everyone else: I will be your eyes and clap loudly for Takki for you guys!! *chuu* Will also scan him up and down and up again to see how much weight he lost!! That boy needs to eat!! (and call his son and daughter...)

Dewa, dewa, itte kimasu!!!

タッキー！！！
今そっちに行きますよ！
お待ちくだされぇ！

p/s: P-chan's "Colourful" is so addictive... ...

*FINALLY*, i reached the "create new post" page. Gawd!!! i've been meaning to update for the past few days but always got super distracted by other things that by the time i realised "i haven't update!!!", it's already 4am in the morning. -_- Yea, this is super snuffles-rashii. So be prepared for a really loooooooooooooooong post.

Anyway, minasama, *I* have officially quitted my job!!!! YATTA!!!!!!!!!!! Hahhahahhahaha, mou hontouni, i should have quitted a looooooong time ago. It zapped sooo much of my time, my YOUTH, my already non-existent social life, my energy... and i dun feel like im getting reimbursed enough for it. Prospects also is another thing. Iroiro atta yo... but i shall leave it at that. Thou by the end of my stint with them, i really hated going to work everyday, but on my last day, i suddenly felt nanka sabishii. Thou the work itself sucked, i liked my colleagues. (Should i be writing this in past or present tense?? -_- Dakara i can neva become a English sensei.. haha) They were all very nice and let me amaeru to them. And they totally understand my obsession with Takki so it's always no problem when i want to take leave to go Japan to see him. But oh well, all good (and bad) things must come to an end so i shall learn to live with them. Yosh!! q(^-^)p Anyway, they bought me flowers and a fuwafuwa chou~ kawaii pencil case!!

You see how free i am?? Hahaha, i even took out the green filling paper that CDJapan always use to stuff the empty spaces in their boxes as backdrop!! LOL~ (My bedsheets are just too dasai to be shown ne...) So anyway, i dunno, are those flowers geranuim or sthg?? i am super NI.GA.TE with flower names dakara ne. And then that chou fuwafuwa hippo (kana??) with erm... zebra stripes pencil case!! It's damn kawaii!!! Hahhahaha.... i cannot stop touching it!! The opening of the pencil case is its mouth!! Imagine me fishing out pens and ruler from its mouth.. LOL~~ kawaii desho??? Maa, receiving such gifts, i suddenly feel like gg back to school. I always feel that when i received chou kawaii stationery. Demo... yappari school = exams ne.... Ano... can i go back to become a student where there's no exams?? I do dread the working life. I think i am so not cut out for the corporate world. Hurr~~ *Marry me, Takki! Marry me!!* (pls ignore this crazy girl... sumimasen) So anyway, i want to say this to my colleagues...

今まで大変お世話になりました！
また遊びに行きますから、お元気でね！

TSUGI! And so, cos i've been so free these few days (instead of looking for a new job AND FILING MY TAXES!! x_X), i've been either playing FFX or watching doramas. Actually, i haven been playing games these couple days. Cos just when i tot i will IGNORE that stupid chocobo race thingy, i got caught up in another CRAZY time-consuming side quest, ala capturing monsters to attain Auron's legendary weapon. My most apt response to this (where i simply cannot find another non-Singlish alternative) is: WAH LAO EHHHH!!!!!! (but don't worry, this negligence wouldn't last long. i am just lazy now... i still want to fight Omega Weapon!! *rubs hands*)

Yeah, so since i am NOT working and NOT FF-jamming, i have been watching doramas. Finished Gokusen1, Minami no koibito, Nobuta and on Goku2 now. In general, Goku's plots are really predicatable. It's always the students getting misunderstood bcos of their bad image stuff. Then there are people who said Goku1's plot is better? Then doesn't that make Goku2 worse? Cos already i felt Goku1 was chotto boring. But well, the eye candy saves the day! I shall get back to this eye candy later... fufufu~

Minami to me was kinda boring too. For the record i dun hate Fukakyo, i kinda like her actually. And i was so excited to watch this drama when i heard of the unique plot and that Nino's gonna be in it. (i was a bit into Nino long time ago, just a bit.) I kept bugging my fren to download and burn it for me. But then, i let so much time pass before i finally popped the discs into my comp to watch. Hmm... it's an interesting plot but the ending was kinda... left me hanging. They can't leave it like this desho??? -_- Lent it to Loracyn next and she's squealing how sweet the show is now but hmm... i tink BokuMado was sweeter to me. hahahha~~ Maybe i was very tired when i was watching it. I was still serving my 1 month's notice at that time dakara ne.

NOBUTA POWER~~~ 注入！*strikes the pose* LOL~~ This one, hahaha, has a really WEIRD plot!! But you will be addicted to it!! And the eye candy is まじたっぷり！P-chan and Kame dayo!! (hey, that's Takki's son and daughter co-starring. LOL~) i seriously have NO IDEA how the scriptwriters can come up with such a weird story. I mean, what's Kame's obssession with that willow tree in the beginning all about?? Hahah~~ Thou the ending is also kinda 中途半端, i really liked this dorama. It really makes me go like "青春だ～".. Hianz. i missed all the crazy things that we could do when we were young. (Thou i am still doing crazy things now. *cough*) And P-chan and Kame were.... uwaaahhh!! ABSOLUTELY KAWAII IN IT!!! P-chan's Akira character is kinda weird actually. The way he keeps pestering Shuji (Kame's character) and how his hands always flap up and down when hes on the stairs... hahahah~~ And Kame!!! AIYAYAYA!!! MAJI YABAI KEDO, I WAS SO ZAPPED BY HIM IN THE SHOW!!! *不倫 siren sounds* Kame always gave me this "super icy cool" image so when he was so yasashii to Nobuta in the show, i was kyaahing and kyahhing away. Hahhaha... at one pt, i dun even know how i wanted the show to proceed. i was yearning for some raburabu stuff but at the same time, i don't want it to be cos it will make their relationship complicated!! And i dun want to leave out Akira!! Aiyoyoooo~~~ so mebe the ending was left best at that! Demo ne, my affair with Kame didn't end there. So i bugged my junior to lent me Goku2... Yea, i am super YOWAI when it comes to yasashii guys.... *Takki, PLS FORGIVE ME!!*

Goku2's plot... no comments yet cos i am not done with the drama yet but AIYOYOOOOOO, KAME LOOKS DAMN HAWT IN THERE!!!! *不倫 siren sounds* And yea, he acted as the Kame that i imagined him to be. Forever calm and aloof. Jin could be jumping up and down beside him but he will still remain cool. LOL~ Actually i know Kame is not that aloof cos i watch Shokura and he's usually the MC, so he talks a lot. Just the image he gives people ya know. So yea, his character Ryu is SUPER COOL... and i begin to understand why he's voted Number 5 in that Most Beautiful Male Talents poll where Takki topped. (Actually i tink he deserves a better ranking than Gackt...*cough* Gackt is too visual-kei... doesn't look like sthg that exists naturally in the environment.)

Anyway, i tot Nobuta and Goku2 is really like Kame's show. He was the narrator in Nobuta and P-chan's name also appears as "guest appearance" in the credits. And in Goku2, thou im not done with it, it seems like the story kinda revolves ard Kame. Jin is of cos a major challenger. Must be all the Akame's fans fault. Why do i feel dokidoki everytime Jin and Kame gets together in the show?? LMAO~

Dakara, bcos there's not much stuff on Takki nowadays cos he's so busy with Enbujo, i started to look for Nobuta/Shuji&Akira/Yamap/Kame (which usu leads to Akame stuff) clips... *runs away from Takki fans* i started to wonder how come i never noticed Kame earlier. i mean, i went for Osaka DB and KATUN was there, but i basically was only looking at Jin whenever they took the stage. Heck, at that time, i can only recognise Jin in KATTUN. The rest is kinda blur... i know their names but can't really match to the faces. Mebe cos Jin is a huge Takki fan. hehehh~ Anyway, I AM A TAKKI FAN DAKARA!! I rem i was still complaining that the prices of tics were pushed up cos there were too many KATTUN (and K8) fans fighting for them as well! Then during the senshuraku, i was up on the 3rd floor 1st row and Kame came all the way up for Showtime. He was sooooo close to me!! Like only 3 seats away and i believed there was eye contact (also cos im wearing this bright yellow top). At that time, i seriously don't know which of the KATTUN he was, but i rem thinking like "Hey, this guy has nice sharp features", and then it's back to searching the stage for Takki. LOL~~ I think i told this incident to many people and they were all killing me like "IT'S KAME YO!!!!". okok, NOW i know ok? Hahahah.... but hmm... so why didn't i notice Kame before? Looking at so many (old) clips from youtube, i realised Kame changed sooooo much in the past 2 years!! He still looked like a child during Osaka DB (and i DO NOT GO FOR CHIBI JRS. I am no PEDO ok?? XDD) but he suddenly transformed into this mature-looking 美少年 in Goku2 and Nobuta!! *不倫 siren sounds* Could it be bcos of his super trimmed and arched eyebrows?? (btw, he has NICER eyebrows than so many girls i know and myself included!!! i need to EMPLOY his beautician... or if he does it himself, I NEED TO EMPLOY HIM!!) And the hair!! Aiyaya~~ And i think he has perfected his art of intense staring to Takki's level whereby he can zap you with his stare and you'll be petrified. LMAO~~ Kame really has very hynoptising eyes. Demo, maji kakkoii yo!!! *不倫 siren sounds**不倫 siren sounds**不倫 siren sounds* Take it from this oneesan ok?? This child has a bright future in JE. Jin looked super good in Goku2 too and extremely kawaii in Anego. And of cos, being yasashii in that was a super major factor. But then if i have to pick 1 of them now, Kame is the one that sends chills down my spine. His stare is really too powerful... Then, then there is this scene from Goku2 that has me KYAAAHING away again!!! YESH!!! the part when Kame/Ryu cried!!!! Aiyoyoyoooooo.... the visuals were kanpeki!!! The bruises were totally negligible!!

I can't believe it. But I actually found someone else other than Takki who can make it into my list of CG-level Kanpeki Bishounen... The only person who ever makes it there is Takki anyway... And my best (recent) evidence would be the visuals from that AMO CM... See below.

I seriously dunno hooooowwww the actress survived this CM filming with Takki staring at her like that!!!! And LOOK AT TAKKI'S SIDE PROFILE!!! He has one of the MOST GORGEOUS side profile i have ever seen!!! This shot is KANPEKI!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Someone was saying he owns one of the best sets of facial bone structure in the world. Hahaha!!! Can't agree more!!! And look at the beautiful bangs framing his face!! Uwaaaahhhh~~~~ Truly heart-stopping beauty.

I have extremely STRINGENT critieria when it comes to admitting pple into my list ne... How often do you people see me kyahhing about people other than Takki anyway?? Even Jin and P-chan don't make the list yet. Jin still needs to work on finding a kanpeki hairstyle (the one in Anego is close!). We all know he likes to flirt with the camera but to me at least, it is still lacking that PETRIFYING factor. P-chan.. ahhah... he's just tooooo girly cute!! But i tink he's getting there. I saw one of his CM... ganbatte! So toriaezu ne, 亀は合格！See below for evidence...

Kyaaaahh... for some reason, these 2 pictures PETRIFIED me... Kame looked sooooo gorgeous!! Loracyn said his eyes looked a bit like Gackt for the 1st pic... urgh.. but i have to admit there's a teeeny weeeny resemblance. But that's it. I will still pick Kame over Gackt anyday. Hahah~~ And the 2nd one... i swear Takki has a similar picture somewhere out there!!! Hey, even the hairstyle and parting is similar!! But but, dun u people think Kame look chou kirei up there?? And he's crying in the first one!!! Aiyaaaa, my poor baby, come here come here. *hugz* Snuffle's maternal instincts in action. Me cannot stand seeing bishounen cry dakara ne. 耐えられない！！ It just melts my heart... T-T So yeah, Kame is kinda now my 不倫対象. But I WILL ALWAYS BE TAKKI'S NE!!!! *Dithers!!! Quick leash me!!!* Thou it's kinda incestuous cos apparently Jin is also Takki's (illegitimate??? LMAO) son and Kame is Jin's gf so that makes him Takki's daughter-in-law??!?!??!?!? (Some say he *is* Takki's daughter...) Oh my goodness... ahhahahha~~~~~

And speaking of bishounen crying brings me to something else. (You have been warned that this post will be VERY LONG.) I was sooooo upset when i read about the yarakashi incidents that have been happening at KATTUN's concerts. (Yarakashi = disruptive fans who do not follow rules) I mean, i am not a KATTUN fan but they are still Takki's precious juniors so i want all the best for them even though they outshine T&T (in sales at least). Apparently some fans have been real mean to Kame during the concerts. They did really HIDOI things like holding up uchiwas that tell Kame to "go and die", "vanish", "ugly" etc... during KATTUN's concerts!!!!! OH MY GAWD!!! What has the JE world come to??!??!?!??? I have always heard that KATTUN's fans are on the rowdy side (since many of them are still only teenagers) but this is seriously too much!! And apparently during one of the concerts over the weekend, during the MC part where Kame usually leads, Kame just started talking and there was a girl who yelled at him to "shut up!!". Kame was apparently very shocked and some fans reported that from the big screen, his eyes turned reddish and he looked like he was gonna cry. OMFG!!! I WANT TO GO AND SLAP THAT GIRL AND THAT BUNCH OF YARAKASHI FANS!!!!! WHAT THE HELL?!??!?!?!?!?????? I don't know WHO these crazy idiots are. Are they fans of ATTUN or fans from other groups but this is sooo wrong!!! You do NOT diss another member from the same group. Nor is it right to diss another group!!! They must be too rich either!! Paying for the concert ticket only to go and spoil it, or worst, pay for the concert tic of a group they hate!! MANNERS PEOPLE, MANNERS!!!! STOP DOING SUCH CHILDISH THINGS!!! Kame apparently wasn't the only one who got such treatment but he got it the worst. I dunno why. Did he really say sthg wrong on national TV?? But he prob doesnt mean it... i feel sooooo upset for him!!! *heartbreak* It's the same feeling when i heard how sad Takki was when fans turned up to refund their tickets at Shinbashi Theatre. The boys work sooo hard it's only right to appreciate their efforts! If you don't like anyone of them, THEN JUST SHUT UP!!! This is sooooo ULTIMATE RUDE I TELL YA!!! For the next concert, fans said that Kame's eyes were reddish and swollen (prob from crying the night before) and he was extremely quiet. Their usual 40min MC became only 15min. ATTUN has to take over the MC part instead cos Kame wasn't talking. T-T Jin apparently became quite mad with the yarakashi and told them to keep quiet. (I think he told them off on his J-web too later??) And Kame was very nervous and kept apologising when he made mistakes during the singing etc. THIS IS SO UPSETTING YA KNOW... i admit i dunno the details which leads up to such incidents but no matter what, i feel the yarakashi's actions were disgusting. DOWNRIGHT HIDEOUS. They not only hurt Kame and ATTUN but also ruined the concerts for many many genuine fans. I dunno why nobody tried to stop them, because apparently this didn't just happen at ONE concert but kinda started since they performed at Osaka... HUH??? Nani??????? IF I WAS AT A T&T CONCERT AND SOMEONE DARES DO SUCH HIDOI THINGS TO TAKKI OR TSUBASA, I WILL WALK OVER AND GIVE THOSE PEOPLE ONE TIGHT SLAP EACH!!!! THEY CAN THROW ME OUT OF THE CONCERT HALL I DUN CARE (AS LONG AS THOSE IDIOTS COME OUT WITH ME)!! NO ONE SHOULD BE ALLOWED TO INSULT T&T LIKE THAT!!!!!! *SERIOUSLY FURIOUSSSSS* But luckily, most of T&T's fans are well-mannered. Everyone's very united during T&T's concerts. Been there, seen it, felt it. Even the Jr fans will respect the fact that it *IS* T&T's concerts and not Jr con so they will not make too much noise even when their favourite jr is not in sight. This should be the wayyy!!! Respect the artistes, people!!!! I am sure ATTUN will support their little Kame through this and it will make them stronger. There are already several "Support Kame Campaigns" going on it seemed and some people have apparently lodged complaints with the jimusho so they may be checking uchiwas for the remaining concerts? Not sure about the details but i tink the authorities are finally taking some action. *sigh* why did it come to this? I just hope such incidents will not make it more difficult for overseas fans to watch the concerts. Already it is so taihen to acquire tickets, so if they decide to become more kibishii at the door, we are dead!

I read many controversial stuff about Kame and KATTUN and KATTUN and other grps but i shan't say anything here cos i dunno how true they are nor is it apt with my half-past-six KATTUN knowledge. Or any other grps for that matter. I live in the T&T Bubble remember? But anyway, my new 不倫対象, i hope he survives all these. The damage to his feelings has already been done. As the youngest in KATTUN, the stress must be humongous. I hope everyone takes care of him and may he recover to his old self soon! Takki! I know you are busy to the core now but i hope you can give your daughter a call to encourage him ne! He will be glad to hear from you! お願い！

そして、亀ちゃん、負けないでね！
何があったのかよく分からないけど、やっぱり笑顔が亀ちゃんに一番似合う！
もうあいう人を無視にして！
亀ちゃんを愛して支えてるファンがいっぱいいっぱいいるから、あんな人は余分です。
もし亀ちゃんが泣いたら、あんな人たちが勝つんです。
でも、「勝つん」は君たちでしょう？
だから負けないで！！
皆の愛と励ましを力にして、千秋楽までがんばって！
本当のファンなら、最後までついてますから、一人じゃないよ！
私もパワーを貸しますので、亀ちゃん、ファイト！！ o(^^)o

Note: People who are not into Final Fantasy (FFX for that matter) should just ignore this entry, cos you prob wun understand what the hell i am talking ranting about. You have been warned.

I think the folks at Squaresoft are not just geniuses, they are sadists as well. For creating such CRAZY SIDE-QUESTS to acquire the legendary weapons!! Like the person who wrote one of the online walkthroughs, I AM ABOUT TO HURL MY BROTHER'S PS2 OUT OF MY WINDOW!!!

THE CHOCOBO RACE IS DRIVING ME NUTZZZ!!!!!!!!!!!!

I H.A.T.E. chocobos now... i hate the BGM that comes on when i'm riding one. i hate their squeak. Dun even tell me they are cute, cos that silly chocobo race to get Tidus's legendary weapon is driving me up the wall!!!! The stupid BLIND birds that keep flying into me and my stupid-hard-to-control chocobo... and the stupid trainer that keeps BLOCKING me and snatching away my balloons i think i will need to race another 1000 times to get a perfect timing of 0:00sec. -__- Gaaahhhh!!!! Iyayaaaaaaaa~~~~~~~ My best time now is still only 10. sthg secs!!!! How loooong will this crazy side quest take????!?!! i wish i can IGNORE this side quest... but why must it be Tidus's weapon of all people??? Baah!!! Bad news is i am a FF perfectionist. I am the kind that must accomplish every single side quest, discover all the secrets and unlock all the legendary weapons. And Tidus is the lead!! How can i let him meet Sin without his ultimate weapon??? Dame, dame, dame. And the worst thing is, my Tidus is so weak. LOL~ Somehow had him wander into Lulu's sphere grid so now my Tidus actually uses (weak) black magic. LMAAOOO~~~ I had to spend one teleport sphere to get him back to his original startpoint when i realised EVEN MY RIKKU IS STRONGER THAN HIM!!! LOL~~~ And it is weird when Tidus starts casting erm.. Blizzara desho??? And to think all the walkthroughs by now states that the strongest characters should be Tidus, Wakka and Auron. Haaa... my Tidus can't even cast Haste. *hides Tidus in embarrassment*

Seriously, Tidus' weapon better be worth all the headache. i swear looking out for birds for too long gets my head spinning. But i got a new fear. Cos i am playing the international version and apparently they jumbled up the order of items in this version (compared to the original). If i only get some Mega-elixir for all this crappp...... *I* will jump out of my window.... only that i live on the second floor. -__-;;;

First it was the butterfly catching game that had my heart palpitating, then it's this crazy ridiculous chocobo race (did i mention i hate chocobos??!). Then someone reminded me of the OTHER crazy side quest... where i have to dodge lightning 200 times at Thunder Plains... GAWD!!! The Squaresoft people are sadist alright. That is where my brother stopped i think. He could NEVER dodge 200 successfully in a row. I see his Tidus jumping around in the plains for DAYS.... hahahhah... (opps, i shouldn't laugh) So up til today, he still has not completed the game. OH MY GOODNESS. i rather be fighting Omega Weapon anytime... why can't they just have intellectual boss fights to acquire items???!! Mou~

Anywaayyyyzzz, a friend sent me a link to this parody video of role playing games, particularly Final Fantasy. It already has more than a million hits and it is sooooooooo funny!!!!! I think those people who plays FF long enough will totally ENJOY it.. ahhahaha!!!! Yvonne!! YOU MUST WATCH!!!! (if you haven't) i laughed and laughed and laughed until i feel like puking, seriously. ROFLMAO~~~ Some people are sooo darn free to do all these, but i really must applaud their efforts. Hahahhaha~~~ They are obviously seasoned gamers and you have to sorta be one too to catch all the parodies. Hahahha~~~ Me, i started laughing like crazy the moment "Circlehard" came out and the brrrruuunnnnggg sound effect.
