I think watching the first Shounen Club of the month is a very appropriate way of ending the summer. On the last night of freedom from anything school related, nothing beats pondering over my fandom. I love it.
So yeah, aside from the fact that the last song, Precious One (one of the KAT-TUN songs I like) made me cry, tonight's Shounen Club was rather plain and boring.
Not to say that there weren't any good points at all.
The opening with Anniversary by Kinki Kids was awesome, and the medley was awesome. I never thought I'd know so many senpai songs, but apparently I knew just enough to know the songs in the medley. Don't even get me started when A.RA.SHI. started playing and I started rapping along with it x_x
Oh God, Koyama Megane fettish is kicking in.
And not to mention Yassu.
Nozawa, Sanada and Hasshi performed together.
I'm starting to speculate that the reason why random Juniors are grouped together rather than being formed into a unit is because Johnny doesn't want to repeat the same mistake of making a unit, giving hope to the fandom and then bashing it up in the end. In short, he wants flexibility, and he doesn't want us to get all emotional when he breaks people apart. Hence, the hasty replacement of Kamei with Nozawa in the supposed Sanada-Hasshi-Kamei trio. Not that I don't like Nozawa, it's just that I liked Kamei more.
So yeah, it's a very sad day when you see the death of the formation of Junior units, but as time moves on, the Jimusho changes, and this seems to be one of those changes. Goodbye semi-permanent Junior Units.
But back to Shounen Club. Did you notice how Nozawa pronounces 'dakara' as 'dakaRA'? Like the way foreigners speak it, with a soft 'r' rather than the usual Japanese 'dakaLRA' type of thing.
It makes me smile XD
And I also realized that I don't really like Hasshi's speaking voice. He should just sing all his conversations. I'll love him more then.
Also, I found out why Japanese people are so short. Apparently, for them, there is not 8 hours of sleep rule XD How unhealthy.
I was pissed with Heisei Post. They just killed it. What's the point of naming it after Heisei if there aren't any Heisei appearances? Wtf are two Showa Johnny's doing hosting Heisei Post? Doesn't that defeat the whole purpose? But I still love Yassu so that should be okay.
It's official Yassu + Guitars = pure unadulterated OTP.
I curse people who make Yassu the train ride of the whole Jimusho. He's more than just a pretty face, and just a bit, while he was playing, he didn't seem so GHEI.
As for the Kanjani8 Mania, there was no Shoon. But there was Question? so I had hoped that would make up for it. I was wrong D:
It was boring D: Although Ishigaki did get a chance to show off his otakuness once again. Remember the Takki Mania episode? XDDDD
WHAT'S HAPPENING TO YOU JOUNETSU RAINBOWS??? STEP IT UP DAMNIT.
I loled when Nakamaru brought out a Koyama Chibi Pic. It's revenge for the last time when Koyama brought out a Nakamaru chibi pic XD I love petty disputes between two grown men. It makes me feel less immature.
As for the KMF performance, I don't like how Kisumai tends to sex everything up unnecessarily. It reminds me of KAT-TUN. Although I really do love their song Kiss-my-me-mine x_x
I'm just happy they didn't perform FIRE BEAT.
Jr. Ni Q was less than hilarious D: I want the Kansai Juniors back. SHIGEOKA DAIKIIII~ D: BTW, everybody should stop bitching about Hikaru's teeth because we all know Nikaido's are probably ten times worse. Seriously D:
Did anybody else notice Koyama's arms in the Jr. ni Q segment? They were awesome x_x
Everybody's envious of Shintaro now - he's so FRESH. And he doesn't have body hair yet XDDDDD
Last but not least there's Butoukan.I thought they were dead already. Apparently not.
Yara's as GHEI as ever with his brown streak of hair x_x Did I mention I LOVE Tsuka's new black hair? (Yeah, I think I mentioned that during the Dreams Come True MS performance) But I can't help but think it's just a week and any day it could turn back to that horrendous blonde D:
Sigh, it may not seem like I enjoyed this SC as much as I did with other episodes, but this SC was still special. It was special because I watched it to commemorate my last day of freedom. That might be a lame way to commemorate it, but hey, to me, it's just what I need to move on and refocus my life.
Thank you Johnny's. I'll be back :)
P.S. KAT-TUN'S Queen of Pirates isn't so bad. I love OUR STORY already.
