topazera | Random Arashi Cap Post of Jan 2015!!!

HOLD THE PHONE, it's a REAL POST on my LJ!! To thank for this miracle is (of course) Val/

phrenk, who subtly mentioned she was making a POST on LJ of caps of Arashi things. Y'know, just in case I might like to do the same~ It turned out I did. ♥ I know I say this like a broken record, but man, lj is deservedly missed for its long form posting format! It's just not the same to post a series of caps on tumblr. ♥

So as follows, a whole bunch of whatever Arashi caps I randomly took for no purpose over the past few months! Don't worry, I don't expect comments on sleepy lj~ ♥ My only wish is: please don't post these on tumblr, as I have my own tumblr which these may get posted on in the future! Thank you, dear lj survivors who deserve some exclusive content anyway~ :D

Ohmiya-on-the-couch
Okay, since I don't know how to be a human that doesn't take these caps all the time, your obligatory Ohmiya-on-the-couch section of my AnS caps! :D

And the winner of this post's Best Out-of-Context Subtitles goes to...

Augh, Nino, with his unnecessary (totally necessary) handsyness~

haHAhahaHAhaha, sitting all squished together even when Sho has moved to the other couch~ Nino and his leaning, Ohno and his black t-shirt, Ohmiya and their mirroring, Sho and his Mimura hair, life is good~ ♥

Sit more on top of each other, please. ♥ Also I don't know if i capped the second cap for Ohmiya or for BEAUTIFUL CINNAMON ROLL AIBA-CHAN ♥

They're both so soft and pretty, in those complimentary colored sweaters~

I swear, I don't mean to exclude you, Sho! You and your clapping laugh! It's just that the couch has a natural division and you're on the other side of it. ;D

Various AnS moments I've meant to go back and gif

Sometimes I love the quick reactions that slide past without comment the most, like Nino's :| face in response to Disgusting-Food-Invented-by-Aiba-of-the-Week :D

YAMA~~~ SHOOOOOOO~~ The loooong processing time that's needed when Ohno tries a new food and earnestly tries to figure out what he thinks. XD

AKLSJDFFGLHALKJFGHKFJDAFGJKLK; JUNFACE!! I love you even more not despite of your ugly face but because you are comfortable making it right now.

You are but we love you for it. ♥ Oh, you just meant your taste buds. :D :D

PRECIOUS ~~PANCAKE~~ OKONOMIYAKI TOO GOOD FOR THIS WORLD, TOO PURE!!

Ohno may have escaped the notice of the cameras but, unfortunately, he wasn't so lucky when it came to sharp observational powers of someone who loves to give him a hard time...

Don't lose to the shame, Jun!! Just turn it off!! Idols can feel no shame!!

Hey, you asked him for "wild".

CLEARLY this was most important to chronicle in this hilarious episode: Nino putting his hair up in a TINY PONYTAIL WHILE ON CAMERA!! Bless you, Step and Go shag cut. This is my sexuality.

Other things I cap during AnS: Nino with his hair already in a tiny ponytail, now wearing a very low v-neck shirt. I have wide and varied interests.

Ohno is a GIFT. ♥♥ Sorry, Sho-kun, if the one thing he said today was not loud enough to be captured on film then he's just out.

looooooooool POOR SHO. The sickest burn IS to just slide right past the bit you just introduced and cooly ignore it. XD

THESE DORKS. (▰˘◡˘▰)

Now for some random VSA caps, which I am sure all felt extremely important at the time taken. :D

Nino with his little ears popping out and tank top layer and determination~~

aksfjhakjflgkjdhglkjg OHNO, I CAN'T WITH YOU SOMETIMES. (A lot of times.) That is the simplest shirt and he looks so great in it.

Ninooooooooooooooooo

Oh god, ALL of Arashi doing the Rola pose! I don't even know who is winning here... we are. We are all winning.

♫ Hello sunshine ♫ Come into my life ♫

lmaooooooooo~ How they all manage to look simultaneously so disappointed, each in their own style. This is variety skill, folks. :D

I also have now collected several caps where I see someone in the VSA audience I just get SO EXCITED ABOUT that I stop and take a cap to commemorate how great I think they are. XD

Fan with light pink-ish/blond hair and punk styling, yesssssss

Girl with lavender rainbow hair, I WANT YOUR HAIR. You're awesome~~

I see you, fellow white girl, and am very happy FOR you that you somehow managed to get a slot in the VSA audience!! Yeahhhhh, girl!

Because drunk fishing Ohno is so important.

Aha, the staff of Shiyagare is the best at adding commentary during editing. XD Pretty much just "NO ONE ACTUALLY CARES, OHNO-SAN". XD

I love how with drunk!Ohno, you can hear those wiggly tildes even more than usual :D

Your face!!

YOUR FACE

YOUR FACE!!!!

So satisfied with his call~

"No one. No one was thinking that."

"Mou nandemo iiya~" HAPPY TOTALLY CHILL OHNO ON A BOAT, this is what I aspire to be more like! ♥

Nino exemplifying everyone who has to work on a Saturday

fffffkljdjajkdfjkladf this segment was just a stroke of pure genius, I laughed so hard and so gleefully as soon as they showed a single second of Nino peeking through a locked door.

I would have been satisfied if Nino's part just ended right here. His selection was a day to himself. Boom.

His eye contact off-camera. His incredibly skeptical face. D Y I N G

I think my favorite part of this is just how amused/anticipatory Sho sounds about Nino testing them. XD

aha, perfect match of face and voiceover! That is the face of a man going to work for sure. :D

~~FREE HIM~~ He had a place he wanted to go. It was called "bed".

It is my FAVORITE thing when acknowledge the staff and how well they know them! The shit he gives this cameraperson is DELIGHTFUL. ♥

lmao, he came up with something, it's practically a miracle! SHIYAGARE

hahahaha, such a scathing look over soup...

Romantic skating date with this cameraguy~

#me

lololol (#also me, based on skill level)

(kill me now, says Nino's slouch)

Jun is the one selected to receive Nino's love. In the form of a giant piece of steel frame or something else burdensome and heavy.

asjkkljhfjsdfl seriously, he has such good banter with this guy, he should be Nino's personal camera operator more often! ♥

yessssssss, our Arashi Blast group totally called this at a tonkatsu place the night before the show. ♥ Except we thought they would have to swim into shore and dramatically flip wet hair out of their faces according to Jun's wishes. :D
