Subbed: WWG 2011

(Late post - posted on LJ and forgot to do it here) 

3/11


Today is 3/11, exactly 9 years after the Great East Japan Earthquake.
I was woken up this morning with Arash's Instagram posts of the Miyagi concert and their message towards the people affected by the earthquake.
Arashi have really supported the disaster relief over the past 9 years, and are continuing to do so.Through their work with 24 hour TV, WWG, Miyagi concert, Kouhaku, they have showed us the power to connect and help others in need. I was so touched by their Miyagi concert with the student's choir, and their speeches at the end.

"We are under the same sky, so you're not alone"

Like Jun said, when there's a will, there's a way - When you try to do everything you can, your feelings will definitely be conveyed.
I didn't know about the earthquake in Japan until after I started following Arashi, and over the years, somehow I've come to know more about and support the people affected by the earthquake through Arashi's activities. Today I am also carrying my waku waku bag to work, for which Aiba donated the money raised last year to Chiba.
I will also continue to support and hope that one day people can return to their homes, and live their usual lives.

Thank you for reminding us of the important things Arashi. I am so glad that I am your fan.

 

Today I'm sharing the longest thing that I have ever subbed!! It took me forever!! (like 6 months or so). I started last year after I heard that Arashi was holding their last WWG :'( and I realised that I will never be able to go to a WWG. They happened to record their first ever WWG in 2011 which was included in their Beautiful World concert DVD.
I have been meaning to release this for a while, but the proof reading and timing and typesetting of something 2 hours long took forever so I couldn't make it on time for any member's birthdays. Anyway, I'm releasing it today on 3/11 which is a fitting time given that WWG was initially started as Arashi were not able to hold a concert after the 2011 Earthquake in Japan, so they decided to open WWG instead and raise money for the disaster areas. And every year after that, it's remained a charity event to raise money. Last year, Aiba-chan donated the money raised to the flood in Chiba, several years before that they donated to the Kumamoto Earthquake.
If you also didn't get a chance to see WWG like me, I hope you will enjoy this!! It was a very thoughtful gesture from Arashi, and goes to show that a kind thought really does go a long way.

I hope you enjoy it!!!! :D

P.s. apologies for the rambling, and also if some of the translations are wrong as I'm still learning.
Feel free to point out any mistakes and as always comments are very welcome!! :D


Hardsub
Softsub - syncs with raw at Arashigoodies (thanks!)
(I personally recommend the softsub as it is clearer than the hardsub)
After 2 weeks or so I will friend lock the hardsub link as I don't want to get in trouble with Johnny's .. >.<

On another note, the video does have a glitch in the middle of Aiba's lesson so if any one has another raw version they are willing to share I would be very thankful!
Also, if anyone knows where I can get better fonts for subbing please let me know! I really like those pretty fonts that some people use for karaoke effects, but I don't know where to get them.

Anyyyywayy ... enjoy! :D

Happy 5x20 subbed: PV 5x20

Happy 5x20!!!!!!

Happy 20th anniversary to Arashi!!!
I hope everyone had an great day celebrating Arashi's 20th anniversary!! It really has been 20 years :') What an amazing 20 years!
I'm so thankful I was able to cross paths with them in this whole wide world.
Thank you for the countless dreams you've shown us. I'm glad I met you and I'm glad to be an Arashi fan! <3

I know this song has been subbed before many times, but since I've already worked on it, I thought I'd release in anyway.
If you don't mind having many copies, please check it out!

Hardsub
Softsub (I think the softsub quality is better)






I also made a fanvid a while back when I got a live audio of the 5x20 song. It contains clips from 5x20 from the news and also some pictures too form the first round of concerts. It contains some of my memories of 5x20 from last year too. Feel free to check it out!

Fanvid

By the way, if anyone can recommend where you can get pretty fonts for subtitles I would really appreciate that!! I wanted to make the video more pretty, but didn't have much fonts to choose from. I want a cute font that moves with the karaoke, and with sparkles around them >_< Please let me know and I'll try and touch the video up to make it better. Thanks!!
Hope you enjoy it!!!

Subbed: Ninomiya Toumei Ningen

 Hello!

To celebrate Nino's birthday I subbed this old clip of Nino dressed up as the invisible man, as he helps this little boy called Mune-kun. There's also Chibi Arashi there too! ^_^ It's super cute!
It's a bit late for Nino's birthday.. unfortunately I couldn't make it on time. 
Oh well, better late than never! (I had planned to sub this for almost 2 years but never got around to finishing it). 

Hope you enjoy it and once again Happy birthday Nino-chan!!~ Thank you for everything! <3

24 Hour TV 2013 - Sho

Hello everyone!! It's been a while! I can't believe my last post is on New Year's Day, and now it's already August!!

It has been a busy half a year from work, and I really wish I had more time to keep up to date with all the Arashi shows >.< And I haven't even written birthday posts for Sho and Nino this year yet :'( (sorry!! super late happy birthday!!)

Anyway, today I am sharing Sho's 24 hour tv from 2013 where he plays the piano for the students. I have finally figured out how to hardsub!! Thanks to sub sub gakkou :D

I hope you enjoy it! 
(Apologies for any incorrect Japanese translations as I am only a beginner. Any corrections or comments are always welcome!)

Get it here!



^^ I like this picture.. Sho looked cool during this part, but my screenshot makes him look kinda scary :'D

P.S. It's nearly Matsujun's birthday .... what should I do to celebrate??

Happy 37th birthday Ohno!!

 Happy birthday dear Oh-chan!!! 
It's hard to believe that Oh-chan is now 37 years old! I wish you all the happiness and good health and hope that you can continue to do the things that you like, of course that includes fishing ;) Lately your tan tells me that you have been fishing a lot! ^_^ 
Thanks for being Arashi's easy going yet firm leader when you have to be, thanks for continuing to do this job even when you have thought of quitting several times, thanks for all the weird and wonderful things you do on shows. I love seeing Oh-chan do skits and random things in variety shows the most! And of course thank you to Ohno's mother for always giving birth to him! ^_^
Keep smiling and I hope that this next year will be an even more wonderful one for you. I will continue to support you and Arashi in everything you do! :D <3

Happy 18th single debut and Arashi NCON 2013 subbed

 Happy single debut anniversary Arashi!!

18 years ago, we got the first single A.RA.SHI!!! As always, thank you for all your hard work. I'm so glad I came to know Arashi and became a fan! ^_^

I hope everyone is also having a great Arashi day!!

I've subbed Arashi's appearance in the NCON's choir competition in 2013. Arashi's song Furusato was chosen as the compulsory song that year. This song has been sung many times since 2010 to support people after the earthquake in Japan. I thought it was a nice clip and I hope that you will enjoy it!

I apologise for any incorrect translations with my beginner-level Japanese. Let me know what you think, comments and corrections are very welcome!! Hope you like it!

T/N: the last part Matsujun was supposed to say thank you to all the students who couldn't come and the people who posted videos instead of I apologize. Sorry, I will fix this and repost at a later date.

Here it is!

Happy 5x18!!! <3

Happy 18th anniversary Arashi!!!!!!

Congratulations and thank your for working so hard and showing us a beautiful 18 years!
I haven't known Arashi for a long time, but the time that I have known them has been precious and I've learned so many things.

Thank you for cheering me up with your songs. Thank you for making me laugh with your variety shows. Thank you for showing me that I'm not alone when things go wrong, that it's ok to make mistakes, it's ok to cry, laugh, get angry, get scared, and it's ok to just be who I am.

Watching Arashi grow through 18 years, living honestly, running at full speed without taking any shortcuts, and at the same time, looking out for each other and being thankful for the people around them, makes me feel like I want to become a better person like them. Arashi gives me the strength to accept who I am, and move forward and do my best.

It's amazing how 5 people so far away, who I've never met before, can make this much of a difference.
From now on, I want to keep on supporting Arashi as a thank you for everything they've done for me and all their fans.

Wishing them the best anniversary, and many more great years to come!

18 周年おめでとう!!!

いつもありがとう!!! <3

Happy 34th birthday dear Jun-kun!!!!

Wishing you another amazing year with lots of happiness, fun and good health! Thank you for everything you've done in Arashi, and for us fans. Thank you for brightening up our lives ^_^ ! I hope you will always continue to do what you like, and follow your dreams! ^_^
I will always support you!! I'm looking forward to your next drama Narattage, and Arashi's next album and concert! :D

今までも, これからもありがとう!!ずっと応援しています!大好きです!!
34歳おめでとう!!<3

As a little present on my ichiban's birthday, I subbed Matsujun's 24 hour tv tap dance from a few years back. I really like this clip and it's one of the clips that really make me love and look up to Matsujun! I hope he will continue to do these things :)

On another note, I am a very very beginner at learning Japanese, and this is my first sub that I'm sharing, so there are many things that I don't understand. I've either made guesses or left blanks on what I didn't understand. Any help would be appreciated!! I hope that you like it as much as I did! ^_^ 

Thanks for reading! Here it is!

Soft subs here   
Raw here (credit of Chesutosakurai - thank you!!)
Hard subs here (thank you winkychan!! :D)

Please don't reupload on streaming sites/sell for profit/... etc. It's open anyway!

Have a wonderful day celebrating Matsujun's birthday! :D

Hi!!

Hi! I'm Mariposa! I live in Australia ^_^
I've just moved here from livejournal, and just trying to figure out my way around dreamwidth for now.
I'm an Arashi fan since one and a half years ago! It's been so much fun! One day I wish I can go to one of their concerts! ^_^
I am a university student. In my spare time I like to watch Arashi, play with my dog, hang out with my friends and family and sing.
Nice to meet everyone! Hope to have fun with guys!
