Arashi ni Shiyagare 2014.08.30 episode

[spsn.livejournal.com]

So, this Arashi vs Kanjani8 game on Shiyagare for 24Hr TV is going to be an annual thingy? Well, not that I'm complaining because Arashi becomes fiercely competitive when they're up against Kanjani8. Yoko provoking them with Kanjani Shiyagara and the new one, Yoko-san to replace Nino-san is just some spices.

So many things going on in this episode with random games picked and battles between Arashi vs Kanjani by members. But this episode highlights is Matsujun, the birthday boy.


First, he's up against Nishikido Ryo doing... tricycle race


He looked like a kid here LOL


at the beginning of the race, he didn't even give Ryo-chan any gap to chase and victory is a sure thing here LOL...


Look at the face!

And the last race, musical chair game...


at the second round, Matsujun even shoved Aiba-chan, with his butt LOL the boney Aiba-chan off course was no match to this beefcake LOL


At the last round, he even attack Ryo-chan, pinned him down, chased the chair across the set


And yes, he's the winner, unbeatable LOL

Bonus caps:

Nino vs Ohkura, Ohkura broke the cling wrap so fast that they need to re-do because there's zero variety on the process XD

The rest of the show... a bit boring, more repetitive of last year's especially Sho-chan's game...

I already know that shiyagare this week will become their battle again if looking from the past years. I'm not too excited with this because some part become really boring. I prefer their talk part like 2011 and 2012 shiyagare episode.

After looking some screencaps looks like a few part is worth to watch :)

They'll soon run out of the games if they keep on doing this and repetitive games lead to less entertaining if you follow 24Hr every year...

[j-sei.livejournal.com]

Agree.
While I already feel comfortable with Arashi hosting 24hr every 4 years but NTV decide they should go with the flow and made Arashi host last year 24hr. I just hope that next year Arashi won't participate :p *But it's inevitable if they want to do that in Shiyagare time slot*

[spsn.livejournal.com]

I totally OK with Arashi doing it every 4 years, but I guess NTV needs rating and the donation? coz Arashi do bring both :).
I hope they think it through for next year, it'll be too lazy if they do games every year and Kanjani keep on losing.

[j-sei.livejournal.com]

lol, right. Last night Shiyagare rating was great. Definitely what NTV want to achieve.
No please, I do not hate Kanjani but please no Kanjani for next year or Arashi doing this kind of game again.

I have to agree. I like the talk better. It might be that these games are rushed being filmed live, but they're not...entertaining or long enough to create some sort of exciting and tense atmosphere. Although, I don't enjoy the games so much even when they're prerecorded and edited as in Anishi.

[j-sei.livejournal.com]

Same thought.
The edited version is not that entertaining for me too. I have much hope with VSA with Kanjani but it's not that "fun" after I watched it :3

[kanu-x.livejournal.com]

I saw the vsA with K8 too. I think when K8 enters the picture, Arashi may get competitive, but they kind of get drowned out by the randomness of K8 and so it's less fun with Arashi consciously trying to tone the chaos down. An example would be in this very episode with Sho barely being able to follow Maru.

Also looks like all Arashi members are kind of tired in that episode and because of much promotion in this episode.

At the end when they play kicking sniper, Arashi win with so little point difference and Kanjani members looks socked too with the result. At the end Hina (I think, I forgot) said that : they glad there is no need to handle VS, they better go back to Osaka and do their variety earnestly. > Which I think he alredy thought how if Arashi didn't win the games :3

[spsn.livejournal.com]

In the latest VS battle, Arashi didn't expect they'll do damn bad on dual curling or rather Kanjani will score a lot. You'll see a hint of panicking on Arashi face after that segment. They really worked hard after that. Honestly I kinda sick with the VS Kanjani etc joke, though it's meant for entertainment, but still... until when they going to stage Arashi win after Kanjani thingy?

[kanu-x.livejournal.com]

I know it's not true because they're all good mates and some of them friends, but this "k8 inferiority complex to arashi image/joke" that k8 have been pushing is becoming boring, especially since on music station they were shown to be the top idols in osaka meaning that k8 is popular in their own right. like I said, I'd prefer to see them just sitting down and talking or better see them working together collectively as Johnnys rather than Arashi vs Kanjani8. Of course, that's impossible on vsArashi, but possibly Anishi maybe.

[spsn.livejournal.com]

if they do have games, I'd prefer they do Johnny's intro don, much more fun than any games, but i guess only fans will appreciate that LOL
Talks are good, all of them are good at talking and Ohno can just relax and have Sho-chan do all the talking XD

Wow, you made 2 reviews in one go today!!

And thank you for this review, was contemplating whether to watch this episode cos it looks kinda fun with K8 (+ matsujun's bday, was wondering ntv will add anything interesting in the episode)

was abit disappointed about the repetition of the games for 24hr tv though.... hope arashi will not be the hosts next year...

[spsn.livejournal.com]

hehe, coz both not too long review, and if I delayed, probably I'd end up not writing any haha

agree on hope arashi not hosting next year, but think NTV will push on it same like NHK with Kouhaku (I think 90% chance it'll be Arashi again)

[angelasyp.livejournal.com]

Thanks for letting me "peep" into some the exciting parts.. ^o^

[spsn.livejournal.com]
