Niji
Just listened to it properly for the first time. (I know disgraceful as a Nino fan, but lately Sho-kun has been stealing my attention. He's just so hot as Mimura! Have a feeling I'll be looking more at him than Taro this summer season.) I just realized, Nino is singing from the girl's point of view...! (Am I the only one who didn't know this?) How cool is that? It somehow makes the song more poignant. The song really is like a mini-drama like Sho-kun said (I love how the girl doesn't say out loud that it's raining, but we just hear the sound of rain). And I get now what MatsuJun meant about exploding at the end --- all the while you think they're just boyfriend-girlfriend, then you find out they're married! It's their wedding anniversary! Nino, you're amazing. *bows*
Edit 7/5: From 2007.07.05 Radio Surprise!!: He wrote Niji in about 10 minutes (wow!) and as a wedding song. So I guess it's their wedding day, not anniversary (sorry about that). I thought the latter coz the guy and girl felt fuufu-ish.
Also got to finish watching Nino's Invisible Man eps (there's an ep missing between Part 2 and Part 3 though...anyone have that?). Mune-kun is so cute! Out of curiosity I looked up his name, and I actually found his homepage:
How amazing is the internet? He's now 11, and he still likes Nino and Arashi (was there ever any doubt?). Apparently he believed in his invisible friend until about second grade; whenever he saw Nino on TV, he wondered if Nino has stopped becoming invisible already. Mune-kun has a BBS if you feel like dropping him a line.
I'm curious about the Hanamaru meeting Nino mentioned on Shikatte! Blonde-sensei...does this mean he's going to be on Hanamaru Cafe soon? Yakkun can finally ask him why he keeps touching Captain's butt lol.
p.s. greyhavens, charurei, I got my dæmon:
It took a while coz I sent it to my friends so they can help "determine its final form" lol. It was originally a bird, but they transformed it into a cat. Not too fond of cats, but at least they didn't turn it into a rat or a frog...

Re Sho, I know what you mean, I've been looking at BOTH Nino and Sho with equal enthusiasm while watching those YamadaTarou prevews! Have your heard Sho's "GanLeggo" (I mean "Can't Let U Go") yet? It's very cute and addictive!
Re Toume-Ningen, I don't have the missing eps too, I got mine from Mindy (thanks!)... and thanks for letting us know Mune-kun's hp! I really enjoyed looking at his photos with the puppies (they look like Nino lol), and of course he'd still like Nino and Arashi; who wouldn't?
I like that blackcat daemon pic there (saved it heheh).
and that's a nice daemon! and you even let your friends help you with.. that's cool. can't wait for dec.
wow! there's your daemon. I wonder what the description is? ^__~
now I have to read the translation again. I never thought.. girl's POV...
whoa really? Niji is really from a girl's point of view? Omgosh it just makes this song even more..powerful..thanks for the info!
Aha..Mune-kun is so cute! If he isn't still a fan of arashi and nino, I'd be surprised. What they did for him was so sweet...
GIRLS POINT OF VIEW? unbelivable 0_0 *runs to check lyrics* Thanks for pointing I would never guessed that! D: Nino is so amasing~~~
MUNE-KUN kyaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!! I KNEW he would love Arashi even now! :DDD He is so cute and you right, internet is amasing! *D Mune-kun~ \:D/
I am such a dork because things like you finding Mune-kun's website excites me so much! (yes, excite! lol)
Wonder if they've got an opportunity to meet since then, a reunion would be nice. Happy to know that he still likes Arashi!
really? ive been reading the lyrics and translation eversince but never occurred to me its from a gir;'s point of view....thansk for the info..
i like Mine kun too..he is cool!!
Koon, I love Sho-kun's "GanLeggo" (lol I love the name you've given it) too. "Come close to me bebeh..." *faints* I asked Mindy about the missing ep, but sadly she doesn't have it. The Tudou clips are missing ep3 too. Hope someone will upload it...btw did you watch the one with Captain as an alien? It's sooo funny lol I'm laughing just remembering it...you can get your own dæmon from the movie's official site. I'm interested in seeing yours too!
greyhavens, thanks again for the link! It was fun watching my dæmon transform (at one point my friends turned it into a spider). Can't wait to watch the movie too.
Ehehe charurei the description is really embarrassing...btw what's your dæmon? I remember you shared the name, but not the pic. Would love to see it too.
Crew, Karmade, aiLa, I know Mune-kun is so cute! Happy to know he's doing all right.
Gwen, zekeshocks, I was also excited to find his homepage, since I wasn't expecting any hits. I browsed through his bbs, and he wrote that his mother told him that she might take him with her to this year's con, so he better study. And he's excited about Yamada Taro Monogatari too, only that it's at 10pm (he falls asleep by then).
