KAT-TUN 2 Me

We are in a serious KAT-TUN lull right now, and it’s driving me nuts! I know it’s all because Kame and Koki are busy doing like 12 performances of Dream Boys a week or something crazy like that, and I know that soon we will have a new single and all the performances, magazine interviews and such that come with that and a new concert tour in not too long. Right now though….there’s pretty much only the weekly Cartoon KAT-TUN to give me my KT fix, and that’s not nearly enough. I regret that this blog has been so Arashi focused lately. It is not my intent, but they are just everywhere right now, with all their new shows and new album and new concert tour and whatnot. KAT-TUN’s time will come, and soon, but I’ll continue to focus on Arashi for now with this batch of screen-caps taken from Arashi’s recent appearance on Tokyo Friend Park. Basically, they are playing a series of stupid games for prizes, and I’m a sucker for stupid Japanese TV games. For the record, Nino rocks at this. He’s easily Arashi’s MVP when it comes to playing stupid games, but that’s to be expected after all. Our LVP is Ohno…he’d best forget about the games and stick to his strengths: dancing, singing, and being groped by the other members.

First, they perform “Step and Go” but I’m not going to bother with that. On to the stupid games! Seifuku-clad girls explain how this is going to work (they get one of those plaque things for each game they clear and the grand prize is a trip to Disneyland Paris). Moments later, both girls were devoured by the fanged earless Totoro thing over there. No one really cared.

Game 1: Jump on a wall wearing Velcro-covered suits. Arashi thinks that being covered in sticky Velcro is a good excuse to molest each other. Then again, they’d probably think a mild breeze was a good excuse to molest each other.

Jun goes in for a kiss, but Aiba rejects him. How sad.

Nino also rejects Sho’s advances as Ohno looks on in evident concern. Nino, by the way, is the only one to clear this challenge.

A close-up of Sho’s velcro-clad ass being groped by disembodied hands, for your viewing pleasure.

Game #2 is spelling things on a giant keyboard. They finish it just in the nick of time. It’s not very interesting to look at though, so we’ll just move on to #3. One person has to play a certain song by hitting the correct flashing lights (the melody only comes out when the right button is hit) and their partner has to guess the song.

Sho kind of fails, but at least he ends with a fruity pose.

I ask this all too often, but what the hell are you doing Nino?

Nino guesses correctly on the first try, based only off of the one or two notes that Matsujun manages to play. Gloats. Then on his turn, yells at the light and beats it up for not playing right.

Either Ohno is confused, or Nino spit in his eye for still not guessing it right when he managed to play almost the entire song.

On his first try as light wacker, Ohno fails to play a single note, but at least he looks really cute when he’s befuddled.

“Ack! Nino is yelling at me! I hope he’s not too mad to cuddle tonight…”

Ohno makes a series of bizarre faces at Aiba in what I can only assume is an attempt to send him the answer telepathically. His plan fails because telepathy requires the recipient to have a brain.

Aiba nervously fumbles with the headphones for like five minutes while Nino yells at him again. Me thinks that Nino and Reina need to get together and form a support group for overly-competitive idols. He’s seriously shrieking at his teammates this entire game.

Yay! We win! Queer Arashi love circle time!

Next is a series of carnival games of which they have to win at 4, but they won at all 6 of them because they’re just awesome like that. Highlights:

Nino inserts his rod into the hole. (gawd. I did not just write that caption)

Somebody get JunJun in here. I bet she’d know just what to do with all those giant bananas (I’m pretty sure I didn’t write that one either)

OMG blowguns! I’m not kidding, read the subtitle. The Johnnys are training to defend themselves against the crazy fans. Also, Aiba seems to be quite good at blowing things, if you know what I mean. (I swear, I can’t stop myself now)

Seems like a good place to cut off. Expect part 2 in a little while

Keep in touch,
