lol Johnny's what.

Back from today's adventures! Somehow, pretty much everything went off without a hitch. I'm probably going to have a million dollar cell phone bill this month from trying to communicate with my parents, but… oh well. At least they made it here safe!

Meanwhile, Gamushara J's party was… utterly bizarre. Unlike last time, where there was a wide variety of ages and groupings, this time was… literally ten people. Jesse, Hokuto, Yasui, Juri, Shintaro, Hagiya, Shoki, Noon Boyz, and that guy I hate Okamoto Kauan. Yasui put up a fair fight, but there was basically no mood-maker, and since the cast of the show was only listed as "Johnny's Junior" everywhere, a huge percentage of the audience was disappointed that the person they wanted to see wasn't there (I heard several girls complaining after the show and one girl flat-out ripping the show apart on the phone to a friend). During the show (I was in the balcony, where there were seats), a lot of girls were sitting down, and for a lot of the numbers, the lower floor didn't have as much enthusiasm as last time, either. There were definitely enjoyable parts? But I don't think that the audience as a whole enjoyed it as much as they might have, and that made me feel bad for the guys, who I'm sure could tell. I'm planning on writing a pretty brief report whenever I get the chance, which will undoubtedly be after my parents leave, but yeah. Really strange experience overall.

They did show us clips of Gamushara, though! I'm looking forward to it. It looks like it'll be a lot of fun, and, of course, Reia~~~~ was prominent in a lot of the preview clips~ ♥

On a final Johnny's-wtf note, they announced this at the show and just now by email… there's going to be a Gamushara J's Party part 3… on 　4/16 and 4/17. Yes, that's right, on a Wednesday and Thursday, from 6 to 8 pm. Fuck you, Johnny's.

But now I'm exhausted~ Again, I may or may not be around much for the next week or so, but be patient with me and I'll try to respond when I can!

That is really weird... And it just sucks for everyone that they didn't have a comprehensive cast list. Cause then people who try really hard to go for x person get super disappointed when they aren't there, and people who weren't willing to take the risk but might have gone for y person who was there are sad they missed the chance, which means the audience is not necessarily people who care about the guys on stage which means lower energy and awkwardness - and of course the guys can do fuck all about it. :/ It just sounds like a terribly unsatisfying plan all around. Johnnys, what were you thinking srsly >>


I'm glad gamushura-the-tv-show looks promising, though! XD Any dea what the premise is, from the clips?

[faded-lace.livejournal.com]

Yeah, it's just… ugh, Johnny's. I mean, I enjoyed it? But it was definitely a weird and awkward experience. Also they were really grasping at straws to fill the time, and ended like, after only an hour and a half, with a half hour MC. What the heck.

It seemed to be them trying to master strange things like pole dancing (we got to see Hokuto in tiny boxers… joy) and hair-washing. XD;

Most appropriate use of your juniors tag XD I still can't quite believe that they charged money for something that half-assed.... XD;; Poor guys, though. At least Shintaro had a good time >>

I'm super excited for Gamushara, though |D Even if it will be awkward times XD;;;

[faded-lace.livejournal.com]

Lol yeah, it's true. XD But seriously, they were like "we only have two rehearsals! Yup, that's Johnny's!" They shamelessly told us how shitty the prep was! XD;

Yeah, I am too! REIAAAAA. Also sexy Hokuto eating? |D;

[britkit27.livejournal.com]

:/ Johnnys, seriously, get someone better at planning in charge of stuff...

Oh lord |D;; because clearly I need that in my life.... we'll see how it goes, I guess!

[britkit27.livejournal.com]

oh my god guys I am so sorry the people in charge of you are apparently such shit at their jobs - two rehersals?

[faded-lace.livejournal.com]

That's what they said… two rehearsals. I don't know if they ever even rehearsed it on the stage…

[faded-lace.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I don't even know. It was seriously a hot mess.

XDDD Yeah, it looked… special. But the show itself looks promising, at least!

[britkit27.livejournal.com]

...just - why. why. In what universe is that a good idea I know they're supposed to be like professionals but whaaaaaaaaaaat even Johnnys ugh >

[britkit27.livejournal.com]

Please get better management, pronto >< Poor bbs.

That's good! |D hopefully the pole dancing will be just the one episode...

[faded-lace.livejournal.com]

Sigh. Johnny's is just such a shitshow…

Hahaha I'm actually morbidly curious about the pole dancing… XD Especially Shintaro.

[faded-lace.livejournal.com]

I mean, you don't see professional Broadway actors go onstage with only 2 rehearsals, so I don't really think that's relevant. Johnny's is just a shitshow.

[britkit27.livejournal.com]

...oh god |D;;;; also lol icon
