[Guest Imboredthatsnotfun]

[Guest yumi-chu]

Arena SP Vol. 53 - scans here

Thank you so much!

@MooooooM: Tora fan service? Haven't seen it before but would love to. ;D

Wow, Shou is #16. He definitely has the "prince" image tho, he should be higher in the rankings!!

I can totally imagine him in prince clothing and a crown.. *drools*

OMG SHOU BEAT GACKT!

i find that SOOOOO surprising(not really)! seeing how gackt is more popular then shou.

i'm guessing they are targeting younger girls because if they were older, they would pick gackt. :0

i still can't believe shou made it up there~♥

[SamLien]

Whoa Shou's #16?!!! Wow so happy for him considering that not much people are aware of Jrock over pop music im surprised to know that he managed to land the #16 spot. But if you ask me he deserve to be in a higher rank. XD

[killjoys]

Shou is #1 in my books, hell #1 isn't even a good enough number, he is #0 O:

therefore concluding I am his greatest fan

Muahaha!

thanks for info and links

[Guest Vivichi]

^ LOL.

SamLien: You are right, many people don't consider JROCK over JPOP. even for me ):

shou is my #2, and yamada ryosuke(who does JPOP) is my #1! oh btw its yamada's bday today

[Guest mikamoui]

.

alice nine = my #1 x]. i actually got my friend to like them XD. He likes Shou's spazz in rainbows.

Shou is pretty princely XD. especially his gestures.

They look more natural in the scans . They look cool though. XD ooh their clothes look fun. -want-

[Guest yumi-chu]

@Vivichi: That's true, Gackt has been around for longer I guess. However, I would still pick Shou over him!

alice nine. is sadly not my #1, since the GazettE has that spot xD

I still love them just as much though, since they're my #2

Shou sounds so different when he speaks (it doesn't seem as natural as the others), has anyone noticed?

When Shou speaks he tends to look a whole lot..manlier i find. O_O'..especially like if you look at older comments and such. Now hes more princely. BUT Its still weird because you don't expect him to have such a manly voice.

[Guest mikamoui]

Lawl well Shou's voice is manlier than when he sings and I think that's natural for him, Shou in the Number Six movie seemed....really unnatural >___< lawl. I think Shou has a lisp?

anyways here's Shou and his inability to say Tofu XD

EDIT

lawl

This was cute http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qzumcd-Sg_s

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cx1Sd305XiE <--when was this?

[Guest yumi-chu]

@Dracolicious13: Yup, he's definitely more princely now, his gestures shows it all XD I agree, I would never have thought he'd have such a manly voice.

Ahh yes, in the Number Six movie too!

Yes, that was the thing I couldn't put my finger on.. a lisp! He does sound like he has one.. but in a very cute way?

LOL aww, he can't say Tofu, he tried so many times as well xD

[SamLien]

Shou sounds so different when he speaks (it doesn't seem as natural as the others), has anyone noticed?

Lol yeah hahahaha he sounds different. . .

When I first got into alice nine. I never bothered looking for any pics. So I was listening to their music without actually knowing what they look like. I always thought that the vocalist would be someone who'd look soooo manly. Muscles and all, black outfit coz from where I live most rock artists wear soooo many black that they get stereotyped as emos TOT" Even rock fans sometimes get dubbed as emos T____T"

So when I finally tried searching and saw how they look like I was all

And Shou's lip movement when he speaks lol sooo adorable hahahaha. . .

Oh by the way i've added you on my lj already hope to see you around and please excuse my rants there lol I could sometimes get too hyperactive with some of my entries XD

EDIT---

I PAWN THE PAGE mwahahahaha XP

[Guest strawberrylove]

^i was introduced to alice nine by a friend

so i saw pictures first before i tried out any of their music.

very unexpected!

he's uber pretty (haha femninie) but manly at the same time :L

Shou is #1 in my books, hell #1 isn't even a good enough number, he is #0 O:

therefore concluding I am his greatest fan

Muahaha!

thanks for info and links

#0??

are you saying shou means zero to you

then i beat you by being his #1

cus he is one and only~

( shou wasnt #1 on the prince list, that means i can share him with less people )

[killjoys]

^ not at all, you've taken what I said out of context

zero means number 1 isn't good enough

therefore I am in a higher place

hahah but he got on and that means he's pretty popular now

[Guest yumi-chu]

Same, I didn't know what they looked like when I listened to their first song- Fantasy.

Then later on I saw Shou and I was like.. such a strong manly voice comes out of him?!

Yeh, the black/emo/gothic image tends to relate to westernised rock bands.

It's good visual kei is all colourful and they have their own themes (for every single/album)

Which is probably why I will never be tired of visual kei! <3

[Guest Imboredthatsnotfun]

I think shou used to have a lisp but he doesnt anymore...

I thought it was cute anyway.

x

[Guest Vivichi]

i never actually looked up the lyrics to rainbows. but when i did, i never realized that shou was trying to say some english words like MAGIC and etc. ROFL.

[Guest mikamoui]

^Lawl. I never knew "ready go," "through the dark," and "profile" were in the lyrics... XD. Poor Shou and his bad English >__<. Actually, to be honest, until i looked up the lyrics of Blue Planet, I never knew that whole song was like 98% English. o__o. I just sang along to whatever sound I heard. I think his English might be getting better though XD. I understood the English in Drella...a bit haha. On the other hand, Hiroto's English doesn't seem bad from the White Prayer live.

[Guest ohdangchang]

woah.

i was wondering if they got plastic surgery?

and their eyes seems REALLY big

for an asian..

ive never knew of this band until now.

so dont bash me (:
