When I Stroll Into The Wild Wild West

[mousapelli]

This is the most hilarious commercial ever. OH KOREA. you are genius.

There's tons of new and awesome fic over at the DBSK exchange, and for once it's not anon! So I can actually tell people what I think of them. not that, um, i don't do that anyhow.

Jemz continues to harass me about the tegomassu fail. That'll teach me to stray from the juniors. Speaking of those, I watched the very first Shounen Club ever last night, and it was BIZARRE.

observe:


Arashi! This is just when Sunrise Nippon is coming out. Ohno is a space cadet! Aiba is in shorts! and the best part is that Nino looks exactly the same.


Iso helped me establish that this is Jimmy Mackey, Hasejun, Yoko, and Yamapi (I might have Mackey and Yoko's order mixed up, i can't remember which one is which). This set is like a demented version of the Mickey Mouse club or something.


JIN! He's so cute, especially in chibi form.


I'm completely boggled by Ueda looking like a normal Japanese kid. he's in the game here, which is, near as i can tell, a staring contest. Oh, Shokura, how far we've come.


Toma! with a GIANT DOMO-KUN. That's just some ridiculous love right there.

I want to also say that the opening song was Will Smith's Wild Wild West. in what universe is that acceptable?

I thought Tackey & Tsubasa used to host SC? I watched a 2003 episode as well, which said Tackey was producing it, but 4TOPS was still hosting. At what point did T&T host?

TOMA'S GIANT DOMO-KUN adjkgdlhsjjdshjgds OH IT'S LOVE. ♥

and dakjhgsl isn't there some sort of conspirational theory going around that Nino does not age. T_T Because it is definitely true.

(THIS IS CLARE aka inevitabilityy. Iso......still sends me, if you need credibility. :( this is not a call for attention?)

[mousapelli.livejournal.com]

well i can! but it's all based on hair! so when it changes i have to start all over!

god help me if shige ever loses his hair spike.

I made this really horrified face reading that you can't tell Jimmy Mackey and Yoko apart. D: You have the order right there, though.

a;lskdjf;lsakdj they're so WEE.

[mousapelli.livejournal.com]

HI AGAIN. lol, i don't really need iso to vouch for your identity...unless you think there's some reason that I should...you can feel free to ping me if you want, btw.

Nino doesn't age AT ALL. i totally believe this. I think he's an alien. And Ohno and Aiba are his alien pets. Jun and Sho just happened to be the first earthlings they ran into, and frankly i'm not convinced about Jun anyway.

[mousapelli.livejournal.com]

it's not that I actually can't, it's just that i'm not particularly familiar with either one, much less teensy versions of them.

I KNOW. the whole thing was totally bizarre.

[acchikocchi.livejournal.com]

.........now I have to ask where you got it. XD

[mousapelli.livejournal.com]

hi_mitsu, actually. they have a TON of older SCs, it's really pretty cool.

[acchikocchi.livejournal.com]

oooh, thanks. I'm a sucker for old JE stuff. ;D

[spurious.livejournal.com]

I think wee!Yoko looks pretty much like now!Yoko, only with slightly more hair. XD

I think I've seen a couple of shounen clubs with that set before. It's so amusingly cheap.

[inkanaitis.livejournal.com]

lol, the (first?) time Shuji to Akira go on Hey!Hey!Hey! the hosts bring out this board showing how K8, KT, and NEWS intermix and talk about how they consider Yoko and Maru(?) to be losers because they were both Yamapi and Kame's senpai and used to be more popular than StA. But now, they've been overshadowed.

;dflsjf;klj i have to download this now.

Man, even the costumes have that 'public access channel' kind of feel. How adorable. XD

[ranalore.livejournal.com]

This is akin to watching DBSK audition footage, I'm betting.

[shinigamitabris.livejournal.com]

go watch the cherish video. if you can learn them in that, you'll never have a problem again. @_@

[mousapelli.livejournal.com]

what's even worse than the old costumes is that i've definitely seen people wearing them recently. OH GOD.

[mousapelli.livejournal.com]

kind of, yeah, except that it's a million people i don't know, vs a handful that I do. The 2003 one was a little better in terms of being interested, but equally horrifying in terms of set, costume, and hair.

[mousapelli.livejournal.com]

haha, awwwwwww. IT'S TRUE.

[iverin.livejournal.com]

I was sent here to ogle caps.

OH TINY BOYS~! Jin with buckethair! Ueda looking SO CUTE. Tomajoy! Ohno...

AND YOKO IN GENERAL. \o/ You are doing an A+ service to the world by sharing. I should have downloaded this ages ago. XD

[snowym.livejournal.com]

Omg, that Korean commercial is such love XD. The guy seemed freaked out at first, whom was having the kiss delivered to him, but I'm sure he'll break up with his girlfriend for the cute delivery boy <3. Thanks for sharing-- watching that made me happy XD.

[musikologie.livejournal.com]

They have to wear out at some point? Don't they? I mean... polyester has to wear out at some point... doesn't it?

[anamuan.livejournal.com]

I love ageless!Nino. Someday someone is going to find an old, decrepit portrait in his attic.

[procreational.livejournal.com]

lol cry, can I really? adhkjsgsk I feel very creepy right about now.

Nino looks the same now as he did at 15. I ONLY HOPE I POSSESS THAT SAME ALIEN POWER. :\ Well I'm pretty sure Sho's fairly normal. Past that, I can't be too sure of anything. This is Arashi we're talking about. :\

[mousapelli.livejournal.com]

sure, go nuts. do it right now if you want. I'M REALLY NOT THAT EXCITING, HONESTLY.

Arashi = aliens, for srs.

Tackey and Tsubasa never hosted SC, if you want to see them as Juniors you have to go even earlier to 8 Ji Da J (though I think only Tackey hosted that). Tackey was more involved with producing Shonen Club, and sending the Juniors on mission (Jin and Kame in Okinawa, the Jr. Fight drama etc.)
I heard somewhere, not sure if it's true that Shonen Club was a kind of present to Pi. The first show aired on his 15th birthday.

[kenaressa.livejournal.com]

You are so mean! I wouldn't wish that method on anyone except it might work....after awhile.

[skadihelias.livejournal.com]

LOL

Nino doesn't age, like, at all. That's kinda scary. I wonder what evil power does he have...

[bloodybrilliant.livejournal.com]

EXACTLY! Wee!yoko looks just the same just the hair's a bit MORE when he was wee. *_*

OH AND PI. THAT'S YOKO RIGHT THERE WITH TOMA AND THE PLUSHIE TOO.

[zombiecide.livejournal.com]

My friends and I came to the conclusion that it must be the birth date. Because of Nino and Kazama.

[zombiecide.livejournal.com]

I have the sudden urge to rewatch.

Ne, about the telling people apart thing ... I go by the patterns of movement. And. 2003/2004 Shokuras with KKKity and ABC junior. Chibi!Senga, Chibi!Nika and Chibi!Yokoo. Oh, and Kitayama and Taisuke. -flails-

[nicocoer.livejournal.com]

I'm almost convinced that Nino either sold something to the Devil in exchange for eternal Youth or bathes in the blood of innocents every full moon. 0__________0

[nicocoer.livejournal.com]

. . . I think you are right. XD
