I'm supposed to write a recap about my fandoms in 2007... But this distracted me and I just have to get it out of my system. :P

Managed to download and watch the countdown this afternoon. It was interesting, to say the least. Watched it twice - the second time was so I could note down my random comments and take screen caps. :P

So here are my comments, with a few accompanying caps (when appropriate - ie. whenever Arashi is involved XD ). I can't do a complete summary as I'm not familiar with all the JE groups. ^^
Click the caps to see the larger version in my Scrapbook gallery.

- Yay for yellow & black! Thank God those are decent outfits... Though I hate that piece around Jun's waist.


- Jun in glasses! ♥ Even though that pair isn't particularly flattering... Still... ♥ ♥


- Hey...Come to think of it, where's SMAP?
- Oh here's TOKIO... Joushima looks weird. Joushima-san, that hair doesn't suit you.
- Wheeee Honey Beat! Go V6!
- Ooo X-Dame. Not one of my favourit Tackey & Tsubasa songs. What's with Tsubasa's hair? O_o
- KAT-TUN. Kame's wearing an oversized, furry shirt with jailbird stripes... and Akanishi Jin's wearing a weird shawl.. fringed and plaid. He looks like he's wearing an old brown rug.
- What... are Inocchi and Domoto Tsuyoshi doing?
- Akanishi looks like a cowboy wannabe, actually. Just without a hat and cowboy boots.
- Hate the patches on V6's suits. Spoils otherwise decent outfits. But at least they're not outrageously bad.
- The chibis in white. Now that I think about it, Hey Say Jump hardly appears in the rest of the Countdown.
- I like this weeeek song from NEWS.
- Love So Sweet. Lookin' good, Arashi! (But.. I really... really deplore that yellow thing around Jun's waist.)


- Sho looks pretty good here. Niiban ♥ !


- Aaaaand countdown! AKE OME!
- LOL Nagase gave Koichi a birthday kiss on the cheek! "Ko-kun~~" Koichi squirms unsuccessfully and then falls to his knees, plaintively saying, "Na-ga-seeeeee..." (Because that was so hilarious, here's a non-Arashi cap of Domoto Koichi bewailing his embarrassment. hahah)


- I want this はつうた song.
- Cool! Collabs. (Please note that I've never seen any of the Countdowns before. heh.)
- Sunrise Nippon! Arashi and NEWS

- Hm. Nishikido Ryo. I only know this guy because nezuko2109 requested a wallpaper of him. hahah... (Which reminds me... It's almost done. I should send it soon.)

- KAT-TUN's outfits make me think of Tim Burton...
- I'm so glad V6's pink suits are not neon pink. At least that's a more bearable shade of pink.
- Kanjani8's outfits make them look like jokers the whole time.

- T&T and V6! singing 恋のMelody. Kewl. Hm. They match too... Tackey's purple, Tsubasa's blue and V6's pink. Nice colour harmony.
- MatsuJun and Kamenashi Kazuya singing some KinKi Kids song.


- Hey... TOMA! With Riida! I see Tsubasa too...

- This TOKIO song, 花唄, is not bad... Me likes.

- Arashi's Pikanchi. Sung by two KAT-TUN fellas (the rapper and the beatboxer), V6's Morita and Miyake, and the funny TOKIO guy.
- Takki and Koichi singing Darling (V6).
- NEWSNippon is not bad too... Hm. I'm starting to think I should look up this group's songs.
- Kanjani8's hit from 2005 is nice... Nishikido Ryo is not bad looking, actually. But someone please explain Nishikido to me? I don't get how he can be in NEWS and in Kanjani8...
- Oh so THAT's the Daite Seniorita song. what's so great about it?
- Gah what's this bye-bye song that I've heard before... Arashi & V6 singing it. White/red and pink/black. Nice combi. hahah
(Love it when my favourites combine...)

- And love that Arashi had the crown emblazoned on the back of their suits. XD

- AH. SEASIDE BYE BYE. Kisarazu Cat's Eye. Ah that explains Sho and Okada in the middle. Gosh I feel dumb. It's so obvious.

- I find myself a bit... Not fond of Domoto Tsuyoshi's voice.
- Ah Venus. Like the song. Hated the PV... And what's that jump/chicken dance thing T&T are doing with V6? hahah
- ROFL @ Inocchi during Venus
- はつうた sung by everyone again. I really like this. If I don't find the mp3 soon, I shall be forced to attempt to rip it out of the video...
- Jun introducing the ones born in the year of the Rat. Gah the video quality's a bit shaky here. But paying close attention anyway just because it's supposedly my year. lol. (By western calendar, I'm year of the Ox, but since I was born before Chinese New Year, technically that makes me year of the Rat. haha)
- "Ikemen" Toma. ahahaha

- I really like seeing Jun around his friends... He seems to be so happy. :D

- Aiba's cute with Kanjani8.


- Are they trying to make Riida look shorter than he is? He looks shorter than the whole of NEWS... -__-" (though I kinda wouldn't be surprised if he really is........)


- LOL! Riida's glasses...


- Hm. There was no HSJ at all after that one performance. Too new? :P Oh well. I'm not a great fan anyway. heh.

So Arashi sang a tiny bit of Happiness (darn I would've liked to hear the whole song), A.Ra.Shi, Sunrise Nippon, Love So Sweet and Kitto Daijoubu. Pikanchi was there, but not sung by them.
Why no Sakura Sake or Wish? Or even Kansha Kangeki Ame Arashi? :(

A random Arashi cap from the closing minute.


=D

Here's two more caps just because I feel like it.
My ichiban and niiban!

I'm glad they did most of the talking. It meant I got to see them more. XD

Oh, and a special cap for Skyura and Snoew!

;)

You just *started* watching before me, but you didn't finish watching. That's why. ^^;

The special cap is so nice, ne? XDD

Pity I couldn't take more Aiba caps... They didn't zoom into him much for long. heh

Will watch the whole thing tonight! YAY!

Recycled costumes from Time con. At least Arashi used the decent pretty ones. ^^

HSJ wasn't there because of labor laws... Those under 18 can't work after midnight. ^^

I wish Jun wore his pretty red glasses instead.

LOL at Riida's glasses

Aiba and Yokoyama Yu! YAY!
Jun and Toma! More YAY!
Jun and Kame! Yes the camwhores unite XD I can not wait to see that!
Toma in a traditional kimono <3 I'm really happy he's there.

Yea, thankfully they used the decent outfits! I would've died if they went the whole show wearing those dreary-looking pea coats from MS Super Live... ^^;

Ah... That explains the lack of HSJ. hahah

I wish Jun wore his pretty red glasses instead.
*nods* Uh huh! The red and black ones!

I think it was really nice that Toma was there. Was he the only Junior to be spotlighted & appear with the senpai-tachi like that? I didn't see any of the others in any prominent role...
But it was so funny when Jun called him an "ikemen" XD

Yes it was a decent choice at least. I know those silver suits had feather things though. XD

Under the law they could not work. It would've been amusing to see them with all their senpais.

Yes Toma the "ikemen". So cute. HAHA I'm happy he's getting at least a bit of recognition. I think he was the only junior there with a prominent role. YAY for him!

From: [identity profile] elenniel.livejournal.com
Those feathers were relatively small, so they were somewhat bearable. ahahah

Ikemen Toma. XDD
Jun: Ikemen!
Toma: ... Hai! Ikemen!

LOL. MatsuJun just seemed extra hyper during those introductions. :P

Well Toma's a good friend of his after all. Those two are just so cute. ^^

True, true. Jun always seems extra genki around his friends. heheh

And yea, they definitely are cute! ;P

Ohno looks soooo funny in those glasses! Like some eccentric, slightly-mad professor XDD

aaaaaaaaah my prayers were heard lol XD the outfits rocked. Although I didn't watch the whole thing, mostly the parts where there was more Sho ^^ (omg I love Shoooo)...btw, the cap with Sho and the countdown is pretty! when was this? I'm seeing [livejournal.com profile] brown_ageha right now, is it part one or two? or three? so far I only have seen parts 5 and 6 =P.
And happy new year =)!

Er... Sho and countdown? You mean the cap after the Love So Sweet one that I have here? That's during Love So Sweet, actually. From... If I remember rightly, part 2. But will have to check again when I go home ^^;
