Well I did the whole search for previous similar threads and I've noticed.. WE DONT HAVE A MIXI THREAD!

The power of the US army is severely limited in terms of intervening in Japanese national affairs.

It's not that easy. Everything that happens off-stage (i.e. things which cannot be monitored) is virtually immune to prosecution. It is true that the "celebrity world," is often embroiled in such acts and that is no secret. Not only does it happen in Japan, most countries have also had suc...

So all of the mothers who send applications on behalf of their sons, all of the j-pop guys who aspire to enter Johnnies, they all do this while acknowledging that they.. might be abused sexually by some old pervert? :cry: Why don't fans do something about it..?

Is it true that Johnny Kitamura (the owner of Johnnies) has a tendency to assault, abuse, or attempts erotic relationships with Johnnies members? :-( On wikipedia there's information saying that one former JE member tried to sue him over it but he filed for defamation.. Also, a friend of mine said t...

ryobreak

Well yeah, the overwhelming majority of Johnnies members' fans are girls.

For guys in Japan (and Japanese guys abroad) it's a little bit taboo to openly admit being a fan of Johnnies. Sort of associates you with being feminine and stuff.

ryobreak

I heard a rumor (doubtful though) that Aiba Hiroki lives in the US intermittedly.
Is this true? Does anyone have any info regarding it..?

Ahh!!! Now my memory came back :P Yesyes, thank you :cheers: Are these also Aiba Hiroki? [img]http://img170.imageshack.us/img170/3234/983575921lxf1.jpg[/img] [img]http://img293.imageshack.us/img293/4411/856108612lcg4.jpg[/img] [img]http://img170.imageshack.us/img170/2162/793016675lrn0.jpg[/img]

Hmm.. I sort've doubt that. After all, they're completely mortified when they see their girlfriend, plus their girlfriends are quite genuinely pissed.

If it was fake, those "real couples," should all apply for celebdom.

ryobreak

Yeah, they actually make very little money. At one point, KAT-TUN members were debating whether or not they'll disperse and find new places to work. It was only with "Real Face," that they decided not to. I hope they will never have to!

can't remember. in the drama they just call people by "ya!" (the ruder way) or "neo/nuh!" (meaning "you"). maybe it's similar to japanese where calling somebody "anata" (meaning "you") is equivalent to "dear"? Anata has the conotation of b...

The term "oppa" is used by females towards certain men. This includes older brothers, boyfriends, older male friends, and probably others (not sure if that's it). As for translation sites, there's always bablefish. But for more English-friendly sites, I personally don't know of any offhan...
