watched NTV Best Artist, and:

[faded_lace]

① Love JUMP to bits, don't like the new song at all. It's not that catchy and it's not really my thing. Daiki sounds pretty inexperienced in rapping. However, I'm so thrilled for Daiki that he got a lot of solo parts!! This isn't even enough to make up for Mystery Virgin last year, but I'm really pleased that they're giving him this. Also, they all looked amazing; Chinen's hair is long, Keito's is short, and the only one who looked off is Takaki, who has black hair and a god-awful center part for his new drama. Also, Hikaru's black hair. Go back to blonde plz. :E BUT whatever JUMP is amazing and full of JUMPing love.

② TEGO IS BLONDE AGAIN. Praise the hair gods. Also, kissed Koyama's neck and made him flail and almost fall over? Maybe I need to become a NEWS fan after all.

③ I have to say, after watching NTV Best Artist... I just... really love Julie. She remembers and understands what Johnny's is supposed to be about, and what sort of tradition the company has been built on (and has become very successful on). If she has NTV, along with Arashi and Eito as frontrunners, TOKIO and V6 as senpai, and JUMP for the future, she's in good shape, right? Still, it's really disheartening to hear that Sexy Zone has gone from Johnny himself to Ijima. And of course, Kisumai continues to break my heart. But... I'm trying to keep it together? At any rate... I'm team Julie all the way.

④ Unrelated to Best Artist, happy Hanukkah to those who celebrate, and happy birthday to Ohno Satoshi and Haniuda Amu yesterday and Matsushima Sou today! Also, I can't believe Chinen is going to be 20 on Saturday T___T;;; When did my baby grow up?

[EDIT] ⑤ EEEEEEEE!!!! CHINEN HAS A MOVIE?! This, along with him being on VS Arashi, and Yamada being on Nino-san... Julie, ganbatte!!

My goodness, why have the opposite opinion of almost everything of BA. XD How strange. I absolutely love the song, and I thought Daiki's rap was amazing. He didn't sound inexperienced at all to me. I think Takaki looks hot as hell with his new hair. After 7 years finally black short hair again!! And Hikaru too, I have been waiting so long for him to have black hair again. I hate the brown. I love the blonde, but I am attracted to him most with black hair. :3

Not to mention, their choreography is amazing as always. <3

I wouldn't call that blonde on Tegoshi. It's more of an ash color and has some faint violet highlights. I do like it tho...It just looks soooo damaged.

CHINEN WHY ARE YOU GETTING OLD!? YOU STOP IT RIGHT NOW!!

Haha this always happens to me. XD To each their own? I am really happy for Daiki that he got to be featured that way, though, and I'm still going to buy all 3 versions of the CD. XD;; But yeah, I can't compromise on the hair. |D;; I hate Hikaru with black hair. But at least we can agree that the blonde looks good? XD;;

Okay, well, at least Tego doesn't have black hair, that's all I care. XD; Though it does look pretty fried, sadly.

I KNOW. HE NEEDS TO STOP D:

[rorychan.livejournal.com]

I guess I have a thing for natural hair on Hikaru. XD

I was actually hoping Tegoshi would keep his black hair a bit longer. Seriously, it's all gunna fall out if he keeps putting bleach on it like that.

He really does need to stop. It's seriously messing with my feels.

[faded-lace.livejournal.com]

Yeah... I'm generally of the opinion that most idols would look best blonde. XD;;;

Yeeeeah I hope he doesn't go prematurely bald or something. But the blonde hair just looks so good on him... when I saw he'd dyed it black I practically cried. XD;;

I knoooow. T____T

[rorychan.livejournal.com]

Oh goodness. XD I only think a few look good blonde. Cuz most of the time it does not match their skin tone or makes them look washed out. The blonde really does look good on him, but I think the health of his hair is at stake here. XD

[faded-lace.livejournal.com]

XD; Maybe I'm really weird. But I definitely am worried about the health of Tego's hair. XD;;;

[rorychan.livejournal.com]

Nope, I am definitely worried about his hair. D: It's seriously fried! That's the one good thing about keeping it black...You didn't notice as much how damaged it is.

[faded-lace.livejournal.com]

That's true. I guess it would be good to let it grow out naturally a little... but it just looks so good blonde. T___T;;

[rorychan.livejournal.com]

He is one of the ones that looks best as a blonde, but I think he needs to not dye it anything for a while to give his hair a break.

[faded-lace.livejournal.com]

Makes sense. I'm conflicted. XD;
