and in the beginning....

So..... Dreamwidth....

I think that is time to make a little home here too, since my favorite writers and Senpais are walking around here.

Well. You know I am an Arashi fan. Yes. Also, that Nino is my ultimate Ichiban. Let's then talk about how it started.

I am Brazilian, living in a small town in the State of São Paulo. I have postgraduate degree in management and work with import representation in a family engineering company.

I live with my family and I have a cat that I love with all my heart.

I've never had further information about Japan, besides the basics: raw fish, Kanji, amazing temples and martial arts. Have never ever heard about Idols before.

BUT!!! I like comic books and cartoons!!!

Here in Brazil, I had watched to Princess Knight, Sailor Moon, The Prince of Tennis, Evangelion, without really associate them to Japan, since they were dubbed in Portuguese.

So one day, in December of 2012, I was on line looking for these kind of "cartoons".

I found the anime Bokura ga Ita. I watched it and I found it simply beautiful!!!!! And of course, I needed more!

Google.

I discovered that there was a " Live Action " of it..... Whaaaatt??!!! Japanese people turned cartoon into movies that were not superheros characters???!!!

I watched the two-parts live action of Bokura ga Ita..... with Ikuta Toma...... OH-MY-GOD!!!! I wanted him for me!!!! Who was he?!! More!!! HanaKimi!!!! O.O More!!!!!!! Johnny's?? What's that?!!!

Hana Yori Dango......... (✰ᆺ✰ )

Doumyōji....... Jun..... Jun..... JUN!!!!!! I wished to born again in Japan and marry him!!!

And then..... Arashi～～ During Popcorn Live Tour..... What-was-that?? Who were that boys?!!!!

In a few days I was drowning in rainbows!!!! Baby steps in all directions!!! So much to see, to understand, to learn!!! And I still feel like this.... learning, discovering, living!

Ikuta Toma always will have a special spot in my heart.

I am a proud Jun-baited.

I love Arashi <3

baby steps I

One of the first things that I saw people around the Fandom talking about was about 'bias' and 'Ichiban'.

I did a little research on the theme, but could not decide. Although Jun was glorious in every sense, I was feeling my heart still... open.

Actually, in the beginning, I was so crazy running through several subjects at the same time about Arashi, that I just couldn't focus!

So! Was I, in early 2013, happy like a 'Baiano no carnaval', jumping from one old Arashi program to another old PV and back to an old drama, when I saw something....

I saw a comment about a member, Nino, in pain, during live performances of Face Down in May 2012. Seems that he had hurt himself during the filming of Purachina Dēta and the fans was remembering the occurrences of these situations in the past....

Pain?

I felt a pang in my heart. And I felt the lil ol' curiosity (that actually, NEVER leave me)!! I thought that Arashi was strong and unbeatable!

Well... researching about Ninomiya Kazunari ended up with me reaching a conclusion. He was my Ichiban <3

His talents, his smartness, his brat-ness, his beauty, his bravery, his cuteness.

The more I saw about him, the more grew in me the desire to put him inside my pocket and keep him forever!!!

I hunted down his dramas and movies. I went crazy with Himitsu!!!

My little fairy is so adorable and I forgive everything to this eternal teen!!! He never ceases to shock me LOL

So, just like that, I was able to reach to an agreement: Neen, my Ichiban. Jun, my Prince, put as my Niban. And Sho is my Ikemen! (seriously, to me Sho is so manly and I fear him and melt for him at the same time!!! Smart guys do that to me ;^b). At that time, I hadn't formed opinion on Rīdā and Aiba yet.

Arashi is still strong and unbeatable to me because they are Human, like me, and they do their best everyday, like I try to do!!!
