- Contains bonus track "Michi"!! (I guessed it!!)

Mouuuu, this AVEX. Kept us waiting soooooo long... and they never bother to come up with new sales tactic. =___= Keyholders again??! Is that considered as different from the Venus mobile strap? In any case, i nearly lost that one previously so now i am paranoid to use it. It will probably be the same with this keyholder. And I BET THERE WILL BE MORE THAN ONE COLOUR. Knowing how zurui they are.... Gonna have to go thru all the fretting over getting the colours i want again. Gaaaahhhh~~~~~~~ x_X

CDJapan has yet to update their site. Maybe they will later when more details are confirmed. Anyway, "Ho! Summer!"... nanka brings Kinki's "Natsu no Ousama" to mind...

YO! Taiyo no shita de, natsu no kanjirou
Waratte yo, motto motto~

So girls, enuff money in that piggy bank yet? XDDD

OK, i ended off my long vacation with a "3D2N Oriental Getaway". Hahhah... no no, i didn't fly off for another holiday after Japan and HK. I am not that rich. In fact, my bank account looks pathetic now... 2.5 months of unemployment + 1 Takki pilgrimage + 1 trip to HK sure does some decent damage to one's finances. XD I only went to stay at The Oriental Hotel in Singapore over the weekend with my girlfriends cos i got it free from some lucky draw. 20+ years as a Singapore citizen (nope, i'm not revealing my age. haha) and this is actually the first time i'm staying in a 5-star hotel in my own country. But oh well, it's a great way to end off my LONG VACATION before i return to life as a working OL on supposedly *today*, which didn't quite turn out as planned. =_= Read on...

A picture of my Deluxe Harbourview Room (from Oriental's gallery).
Singapore's night view was not bad!
If the picture was clear enough, you could see the Merlion in the distance. LOL~
But too bad, it was "taking a shower" during our stay there.

The plan was to sing KTV (karaoke) on the 1st night and JJ's concert on the 2nd. But we changed plans when we found out how expensive it was to sing on a Friday night and switched to watching World Cup in our room instead. South Korea vs Switzerland. Of course we were rooting for Korea since we are Asians but well, i must admit the Swiss were a better team. More initiative and way faster. Only logical that they won Korea 2-0. Now i need to find another team to support. LOL~ Shall wait and see who survives to the semis.

Highlight of the 2nd night, JJ Lin Junjie's concert in Singapore. Uwaa~~ i really want to claim this boy as Singapore's 国宝 (national treasure). Although his concert wasn't as HIGH as T&T (I don't expect it to, since JE concerts are a total different league and well, the LEVEL OF COMMITMENT from me is entirely different. Hahahhahah~~~), his vocals were really AMAZING!! O_O!! And he's hella talented as a song writer. He wrote many songs for many famous singers like A*mei, A-do, Vivian Hsu etc. So proud that he is a fella Singaporean. Hahaa~~ His live singing was so amazing and had this unique tone to it. I love it. His songs are always on the list when i go ktv with friends, cos he has a high voice for a guy, which makes it easy for girls to sing. You people who sings Mandarin pop should try! Heheh~ And oh, i just found out his birthday is like 2 days before Takki's, and he has dimples too (thou not solo. LOL). Aiyaaaa, similarities to Takki ne!! I therefore conclude that I am a *consistent* person. Hahahahhah~~~~ But of cos Takki is way stronger in the looks dept. We are talking cute vs World's Most Beautiful Asian Species here. Cannot compare like this. Hahahha~~

But anyway, I want to do my part of free marketing for our fellow talented Singaporean songwriter/singer. Hahaha, hence putting up one of many JJ's songs that I like. The song is called 简简单单 (Jian Jian Dan Dan). For those who are Mandarin-challenged, that means something like "Simplicity". This is one of his own compositions as well. Lyrics by someone else and I particularly agree with the chorus alot. The MV is very cute as well! Click below.

p/s: He was so cute at 01:35!!
How nervous he was when the girl tried to seduce him. LOLLL~
I want to PINCH his cheeks!!!! XDDD

So the chorus translated directly means something like...

只是简简单单的爱过，我还是我
Just to love simply, I am still me
简简单单得伤过，就不算白活
Being hurt simply, at least it is not a life wasted
简简单单的疯过，被梦带走
Simply go crazy, get carried away by dreams
当故事结束以后，心也喜欢一个人寂寞
When the story ends, you will like being alone

OK, I know it makes no sense when translated literally cos the actual meaning and nuance is all lost. Basically I think the song is talking about daring to live life to the fullest. Things are and can be very simple. Don't think or worry too much. Everything good or bad is an experience that adds to the colours of one's life. So go ahead and fall in love (first line), don't worry about getting hurt (second line) because a life without love and hurt is a life wasted. Go all out and pursue your dreams (third line), even if others think you are crazy. At least you've tried so there's no room for regrets. With all these, even when it all ends, at least you got the memories and experiences to recall. Therefore, you wouldn't feel empty and lonely even when alone. That's what I think the last line meant. Great isn't it? I wish I can write lyrics like that one day. But first I need to brush up on my Chinese. Hahahha~~~ But the 3rd line especially, made me realise how glad I am to have made all those crazy trips to Japan to see Takki. So many people tell me I am CRAZY to spend all that money. They will rather save it or use the money to buy something tangible, but I can't say I didn't buy anything. I bought memories. GREAT MEMORIES of every concert and musical that I went to. Stuff that makes me smile when I think about them.

For the record, JJ doesn't only do such slow numbers. His style is full of variety. He sings ballads to raps to R&B. ^^ I think he usually writes the songs but not the lyrics, cos he is actually more of an English speaker. I can only imagine how much convincing he needed to do so that his parents would allow him to pursue a singing career. But I am glad he went all out to pursue his dreams and not let his talents go to waste. Saa, being determined enough to pursue something like music and performing always needs a lot of courage ne! Cos everyone can 发明星梦 but only the really determined and talented ones will make it. For the rest of us, let's belt it out in the bathrooms and ktvs. Hahahahhaa~~~~ JJ, Go!!! q(^^)p Make us proud!

Finally, I want to blog about my *cough* first day of work, which is supposedly today. "Supposedly" because............................. i took MC. =_______=;;;

I CAN'T BELIEVE IT.

Taking MC on first day of work. I'm gonna be remembered for all the wrong reasons. And this is all because of that POTENT chibi bowl of century egg porridge i had the night before which led to an eruption of urticaria, or more commonly known as "hives" for the lumpy welts it caused. THE ITCH WAS DRIVING ME NUTZ!!! And it kept me awake the entire night!!! And cos i didn't sleep much the previous 2 nights during my "Oriental Getaway", I was really drowsy the next morning. But my mum insisted that I must go to work cos it's my first day and kept nagging and nagging. You know those old folks... =_= So I went, cos i thought the welts were kinda flattening out. So all wrapped up in long sleeves and all, I left the house. WRONG MOVE. On the train, itch and sleepiness aside, I suddenly got a headache and everything turned grey. My hearing became muted and I felt like puking, thou there was nothing to puke cos I didn't eat anything since that fateful bowl of porridge the previous night. I thought I was faint!!! AND NO WAY DO I WANT TO FAINT IN A PUBLIC TRAIN ON MY FIRST DAY OF WORK. So i gaman and gaman until my stop. Stumbled out in cold sweat. What was happening?? I reached the lobby of my workplace but I decided it would be worse if I had gone in to "show my very pale face" and then told them, "yappari, i need to take leave". I rather not go in at all. So I called in sick.

GYAAAAAAHH~~~~~~~~ Feel so stupid.

Then went to see a doc near my workplace. So silly. I went all the way to my workplace for that??! Anyway the doc confirmed it's the eggs. Thou i've eaten century eggs before, but prob cos my mum didn't wash them properly this time. x_x Got anti-histamines and some cream. The swelling and itch is mostly gone now, but the doc warned that it may come back. But no way am i missing work again tomorrow. IT WOULD BE RIDICULOUS. Now I only wonder if today will be *paid* leave since I got an MC. And if I can claim back the doc's fees. I AM ALREADY BROKE ENUFF!! And I had to incur such losses before I even started earning... WHAT A DAY!! =_=

Dakara, my advice to you who's reading this. Do not eat "challenging" food the day before an important day. Thou century eggs really aren't (to me). But ya know, just stick to the chicken and fish. SAFE STUFF.

OK... some fans have already received the limited edition Enbujo Photo Album (only available thru J-web i think?). I think many people misunderstood and thought it was a photobook, but (thank god) it's not. Hahahah, it's just a photo album. With empty slots for you to keep those oversized Enbujo official pics. As expected, it is already up on Yahoo Auctions. You can see it here. Well, looks simple and classy with the golden words. But hey, it's kinda on a different colour theme from the official white-pink pamplet ne! Maa, betsu ni ii kedo. Anyway, I wouldn't be lusting after this album cos i can only fill it up to 10%. LMAOOOO~~~~ So good for my waller. For ONCE!! XDD

Next is this Relay Diary thing that has been going on. Thanks to Helen who put everything together so it was easy to understand. Anyway, a group of 8 JE guys got together for a meal sometime ago (before Takki left for LAS VEGAS, the gambling place... *looks at Dithers.. LOL*). It was really "multinational", as Shingo said. LOL~

Sato Atsuhiro (now defunct Hikaru Genji)
Koichi (Kinki Kids)
Yamaguchi (Tokio)
Matsujun (Arashi)
Takki (Tackey & Tsubasa) *chuu*
Shingo (Kanjani 8)
Yamap (NEWS/4Tops)
Toma (4Tops)

Amazing desho? Even the 8 of them thought it was amazing that they could get together like this, overcoming the senpai/kouhei barrier. I think it was an impromtu gathering? And it turned out that they could communicate with each other very well despite the difference in seniority, age, character... everything in fact! How about i think the only common thing they have is that they are all from JE? Hahhaha~~~ Interesting ne... One thing i like about JE is that they are really like a family sometimes... ok, am i contradicting myself? Never mind... XDD

So anyway, Shingo started off a Relay Diary thingy on his J-web. Apparently, all 8 of them were quite surprised that they could hit it off so well they decided to give themselves a group name. So Shingo started talking about this meeting they had and their group name and passed the baton on. So it went like...

Shingo -> Matsujun -> Yamap -> Sato Atsuhiro -> Toma -> Takki -> Koichi -> Yamaguchi

So fun desho! And Toma was the one who came up with the group name, called "No Borders". Uwaaa... i think it's really quite fitting. And they even apparently came up with names for each member, going by colour! So there's...

White
Black
Red
Pink
Purple
Blue
Gold
Grey

In the T&T world, OF COS TAKKI IS PINK DESHO???? But then, seems that Yamap is quite associated with pink too... alamak.. father fights with son. LOL~ Anyway, i haven't seen the last entry, Yamaguchi's entry, which will supposedly reveal who is what colour. I dunno has Yamaguchi-kun updated already or not thou.. perhaps not, cos there's nothing about it on the Japanese BBS. They are still polling what colour Takki should be. hahahha... ONE VOTE FOR PINK FROM ME!!! I think it will really be INTERESTING if they actually release something together. How fun will that be??!?? But i can hear SCREAMS from fans of other members of the groups that are not included in this group... Tsuyoshi fans toka, Tsuba fans toka... esp these 2 kana? cos they are 2 man units. But hey, suddenly thought of this... Tsuyoshi should go release something with Tsuba since they are so close!! Oh my god, this is so fun!!! Hahhaha, oh dear im nutz... XDD The unit fans are all gonna come after me...

Anyway, anyone who knows what Yamaguchi wrote, aka the answer to who's what colour, please tell me ne!!! Yoropiku! m(_"_)m

Lastly, just wanted to put up the PV of this song that i've been quite addicted to recently. 七里香 (Qi Li Xiang) by Jay Chou (Zhou Jie Lun). It's not even a new release, I dunno why i only got hooked to it now. Hahahha... But well, if you listen to Mandarin pop, you cannot *not* know Jay Chou... (And the singer K kinda looks like him.) So yea, now i'm always humming this song in my head day in day out.. it's so addictive!!! I LOVE the chorus... it's now my karaoke 必唱曲...

Thou his pronunciation is really SLUR like anything, but i guess this is Jay Chou for you. So point to note, when you sing his songs in karaoke, dun sing too clearly. LOL~~~~ And he always have very difficult lyrics... thanks to his good friend Fang Wen Shan who writes a lot of lyrics for him. They always make me feel that i need to brush up on my Chinese.... =_= But i really DO want to brush up my Chinese. I find it so difficult to speak in pure Chinese without adding in any English and Japanese now. x_x

So anyway, enjoy the song!

IYOIYO, the final part to my loooooong-winded Enbujo report. Do i have any surviving readers? *looks high and low* XDD So, the last part... SHOULD be short...

Act 3: Tackey World

Gawd, i really hate calling him "Tackey". (No sound from Dithers now. *wags finger* LOL) Only doing now cos i am following exactly what is printed in the official pamplet. =_= It's "TAKKI" dayo! And it should really be "Takki's World" with the 's. Maa, i'm not going to continue picking on the English. LOL~ Anyway, Act 3 was supposed to be about the current and future Takki. To me, it was really SHOWTIME!!!!! fufufu~~~

The act began with a junior coming in from the hanamichi exit juggling a baton. Must be *that* junior again. (Someone get this boy a Cirque Du Soleil application form already.) Mao something?? Urgh... dun ask me. Ask Ariye or Loracyn. lol~ The curtain of sakura petals went up and revealed the band behind with many dancers and juniors around. They then started to introduce the junior groups one by one. The screen behind would flash the name of each group as they came forward to perform a song. First was ABC, then KMF and KMF2 and lastly Yayayah. (Don't ask me what they sang. I don't know the titles. I don't even remember the songs actually. =_=) AND THEN TAKKI APPEARED AGAIN! FROM THE TOP!!!! He made use of all the time when the junior groups were performing (and distracting the audience) to ready himself on the gondola. (By our 2nd show, cos we already knew he would be coming down from the top and since we were on the 1st floor and unobstructed, we were looking up and staring at him climbing onto the gondola and stuff... i was squealing to Sylvia.. "i can see under his coat!!!" LMAO~~~ Thou he got his shirt properly tucked in so i saw nothing else. HAHAHAHHAHAAA!! And we couldn't help waving to him, thus alerting quite a few other people around us and distracted them from the performance going on on stage too. Gomen ne, junior-tachi. Hahahha... SuMAmisen! XDD) When the final group Yayayah was done with their song, they played the opening of Yume Monogatari and the audience started screaming. Soon enough, everyone discovered Takki who was slowly descending from the top in all princely glory.

Takki descending on the gondola.
The return of that mirror-ball costume from Harucon 2004!
Was it the same one?? Maa, it looked similar enough!

AND THEN THE AUDIENCE WENT INTO A FRENZY! Muahahhahhaaaa!! The gondola paused for a while when eye-level with the 2nd floor people. (So on our 1st and 3rd shows when we *were* on the 2nd level, it was frantic waving... muahahha!) It would then lower somemore just above the heads of the audience on the 1st floor and Takki would get down onto the right aisle and walk up to the stage. On our 2nd show, cos we were on the 12th row on 1st floor BY THE AISLE (where the gondola will eventually deposit Takki), we were soooooooo HOPING that he will end up next to us!! But aiiiii, the gondola ended up further in front of us than we thought, around Row 8 i think. But not being immediately NEXT TO HIM has its advantages. Cos Takki does not look at fans right under his nose!!! Let's just say he has "foresight". Hahhaha, so when the gondola came lower and lower just 4 rows in front of us, Takki looked in our direction!!! AND ALL THREE OF US STARTED WAVING TO HIM SIMULTANEOUSLY LIKE YOUNG LITTLE GIRLS! LMAO~~~~ AND I SWEAR, HE SAW US!!!! THERE WAS EYE CONTACT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! *meltssssssss* I think we were squeezing each other's arms to reconfirm the eye contact. LOL~ And his expression... how should i put it.. he didn't smile like ^-^ but the ends of his lips curled up. Like he was amused. AHAHHAHAHHA~~~~ We were kyaahing away~ Takki up close, hontouni kirei dane! So of course the entire theatre was singing and dancing to Yumemo with Takki, though he did say before Act 3 wasn't meant to be a concert. Hahahaha, sorry Takki. Can't help doing the furitsuke! XDDD

So after Yumemo, Takki took off his white cloak to reveal some black-red ensemble (if i didn't rem wrongly.. it's been 2 months!!) and started singing Balance!!!!!!!!!! WAAAAAAAAAAAAH, I LOVE THIS SONG!!!! It reminds me of the hynoptising hip-swaying action.... WOOHOO!!! moe moe moe!!! Though i *THINK* the dance was a little different in Enbujo... there was no hip-swaying. You see, after 2 months, i am not sure if what I remembered was from Enbujo or DB DVD or Shokura!!! Ahaaaa.... sumamisen... but i kinda rem that the dance was a little different. But still, just hearing him sing live to it already bring images of THAT action to mind. Enuff to spew blood from nose.... *splat* XDDD

After a highly energetic Balance, Takki changed into this royal shiny red suit onstage with a matching fedora to perform a acoustic version of Serenade!

He danced a lot in the beginning with a rose before he started singing. Reminded me of Tsubasa and Higashiyama.. hahah.. they're so into this style... which, can i say is inspired from Michael Jackson's Smooth Criminal?? i liked this particular move he did with his hands (in black gloves). Very slick, the way he flipped them. Was trying to learn it... ahhaha~~~ (GIVE US THE ENBUJO DVD ALREADY YO!!!!!!!!!!!!!)

And then, and then... the next song... KYAAAHHHHHHHHHH~~~~~~~~~ I SO DIDN'T EXPECT HIM TO SING IT.... when they played the opening, i nearly flipped... DIAMOND!!!!!!!!!! My His guru-guru legssss!!!!!!!! @_@!!!!!!!!! OOOOOHHHH, HOW I MISSED WATCHING A PERFORMANCE OF DIAMOND LIVE!!!!!!!!!!! *droolssssss enuff to flood* I was sooooooooooo hyped up!!! Hahhahaha!!! Me and Syl were slapping each other's arms and I think Loracyn was all caught up with the biceps??!? Was it here??? Was it here where he took off his blazer and was wearing something sleeveless??!? Shucks, i can't rem what he wore.. ahahha, but I remember after the show, we were talking about this one part in Act 3 and how all of us were gawking at different things!! Loracyn with the biceps, me with the guru guru legs and Syl with Takki's intense expression. WOOHOO~~~~~!!! Though nothing can beat the time when we saw T&T perform it up soooo close to us during Thaicon 2004, it still left me... breathless. XDDDDDDDDDD I love Diamond. Period.

After major heart palpitation with Diamond, the stage went dark and Takki exited. The spotlights came on again with the opening of Kanjani8's Sukiyanen Osaka and Yoko and Okura took centrestage!!! They were both holding the mikestands with the sun? himawari? prop and started speaking in their funny Kansai dialect!! It was Kanjani8's medley time!!! Hahhaha, yappari K8 are such FUN and ENERGETIC people... I was sooooooooo happy cos i really like Sukiyanen Osaka. It's such a genki song!!! And the furitsuke is really cute!!! Catch a past MS performance of it here. I particularly like this one cos it's soo funny and even the usually broody Ryo was bright with smiles!! So anyway, the 2 boys introduced themselves and informed the audience of their new album (F.T.O.) and upcoming concert tour (that was then). Then they started singing the chorus of Sukiyanen and everyone joined along!!! Kyaaah, K8 is sooo endearing it's hard not to like them. Hahhaa~~~ I WAS HAVING SOOOO MUCH FUN DOING THE FURITSUKE!!! After one verse, they stopped to talk a little some more and then started singing the chorus of Oh! ENKA. And then a verse of Sukiyanen again and then the chorus of Osaka Romanesque. Okura started singing then Yoko joined in. It was sooo beautiful~~~ I never heard of this song prior to Enbujo but now i loved it loads!!! Catch a concert rendition of it here! There's another clip of K8's medley on MS here which was similar to what they did, just that instead of Mugendai, they sang Osaka Romanesque. LOL~ Youtube can be so useful sometimes. XDDD They finally ended their medley with the chorus of Sukiyanen again before exiting the stage.

The whole stage was empty and dark except for a giant screen illuminated from behind. Takki appeared and started dancing in between the light and the screen such that his silhouette would be magnified and casted on the screen. Again, this reminds me of MJ's Smooth Criminal.. hehe. Cos MJ did the exact same thing in his concert, which i went many many years ago when he came to Singapore. Takki then came out from behind the screen and danced somemore in front of the spotlights, playing with shadow effects. And then it was the illusion/magic show. Kinda hard to explain but he just played with the usual disappearing acts, first making some dancers disappear, then disappearing himself. Nothing overly fascinating, but then again, this ain't no David Blaine show. Heheh~~ XDD But he did surprised a few by suddenly appearing at the right aisle on the 1st floor just seconds after he apparently just disappeared on stage. (Of course, he had some help from his double.) And it was at this part where he knocked into Loracyn's arm or something?? Cos Loracyn was right by the aisle (followed by me, then Syl) and she said she was leaning out cos the person sitting in front of her was too tall. So when Takki rushed in from the back, he kinda knocked into her or something. This was during our 2nd show of cos. I totally forgot that he would be entering from behind us so was really surprised when he dashed past right next to us. Hahhaa... in fact he ran sooo fast there was a gust of wind!! LOL~~~ Loracyn was just going "oh my god, oh my god!!" (and squeezing my arm). XDDD

Takki stopped just short of the stage and the spotlight shone on him. The opening of Venus started playing!! I think this was where Takki would go sit on the laps or armrests of some of the guests who went to watch Enbujo. Cos the guests usually seat at Row 7 by the aisle if I didn't rem wrongly. Unfortunately, none of the 3 days we went had VIP guests... (only some chibikkos but they were up on the 2nd floor) so Takki would usually just continue up to the stage. On all our shows, he wore the shiny pink blazer but I think he did wear other stuff sometimes as you can see from the screencaps from WS below.

The rest of the cast would appear on stage too and perform Venus with Takki. And it's quite funny cos some of them would appear in their costumes. Look at Yoko in his ojiisan costume (upper screencap) yet dancing to Venus!! And without his shoes!! Hahahahha~~~~ Then they would come to this part in the song where Takki would call the name of someone and that person is supposed to do a mini solo dance to the background music of Venus. On the day Tsubasa was guest, I think he went up on stage to perform Venus with Takki. But when Takki called his name for this part, he was too shy and just stood there. Hahahhaha~~ Maa, Tsubasa dakara, yurushite a.ge.ru. *chuu* After Venus, Takki would exit the stage quietly while the rest of the cast took turns to bow to the audience. So they went from the chibikkos to the senior chibikko groups (ABC, Yayayah etc), then the non-JE actors, and finally Okura and Yoko. And while they were doing all these, the crew was assembling a set behind which consisted of the bridge that was used in the Gojo scene. When everyone was done with their bowing, the opening of Epilogue was played. AND YOU WOULD KNOW THIS IS THE END. T-T The cast would move away from the centre of the stage (and exit??) as the bridge was pushed out a little bit more and Takki slowly appeared on the bridge in a black tux but shielding his face with that bright orange cloth thingy like in the Gojo Bridge scene. He then revealed his face and started singing Epilogue with the cloth draped on his shoulders. It was the perfect epitome of the entity which we have come to call as "Takki Yoshitsune". Seriously. And I think they showed video images of Enbujo rehearsals on the back screen of the stage as well. It was like DB. Gawd, Epilogue is such a PERFECT ending song for anything!! Halfway through the song, Takki removed the orange cloth from his shoulders. It was like, shedding the Yoshitsune part of him. By the end of the song, he was at the bottom of the bridge and ok... my memory fades here. I think he sorta thanked the audience and there would always be a standing ovation. XDD The curtain then came down but of course, everyone knew this was not the end and continued clapping. Then the curtain would go up again and the entire cast would reappear on stage together with Takki. Then i think Takki would start introducing all the cast again one by one (or group by group). And finally, someone else would go "Soshite, Takizawa Hideaki!" and Takki himself would step out. Big applause and lotsa screams of course. As the zachou, he would then lead the entire cast to bow to the audience. First right, then left, then centre. Just like how he did in the DB DVD. VERY KAKKOII. I loved this part. And you just want to clap and clap loudly for him. Sugokatta yo, Takki!

With that, the curtain would finally go down admist loud applause. Except for senshuuraku and maybe on his birthday, I think Takki usually only had one curtain call. And that, ladies and gentlemen, marks the end of Enbujo.

TAKKI, OTSUKARE SAMA DESHITA!!

And to me too. Phew!! *wipes sweat* I finally finished this report like 2 months later!!! Gawd, i sure am a procrastinator!! x__x But luckily, i still made it before they release news of new projects. Haaaa... so now what do we do?? REQUEST FOR ENBUJO DVD PEOPLE!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ijou desu. Yoropiku.

Came across this clip when i was surfing around on Youtube and my gawd!!! IT'S SO CUTE!!!! Dunno how come i haven seen it before. The clip I have of T&T appearing on Ya3's show didn't include this. TOTEMO KAWAII!!!! Girls, we need to play this game sometimes too! Muahahahha~~~ I loved how Takki jumped up from his seat and gave Tsubasa a hi-five when Hikaru lost. He was sooo excited like a little boy! LOL~~~ Ka.wa.iiiiiiii~~~~ *pinch pinch pinch*

And i dunno, i think maybe it's the cutting of their t-shirts, but it made both T&T look so HOSOI!!! Esp Tsuba-chan... @_@ Suteki! *heartsssss*
