Arama They Didn't

Arashi has heard about Arashi Peru fundraising efforts

  It seems like the good news never stops. :)

VS Arashi Producer Masafumi Futagawa tweeted today that the Arashi members have read the Yomiuri Shimbun article on the efforts of Arashi Peru to raise money for the disaster victims:

Thanks for your support!! All the member of Arashi had read the newspaper of Pelu!! They were very impressed!!

 
VS Arashi Producer Yatagawa tweets about Arashi Peru

Also, he followed with a tweet in Japanese:

The filming (of VS Arashi) ended without issue. Everyone was as cool and calm as ever. Yesterday I tweeted about the article on Peru, since then I've received messages from Arashi fans around the world and I'm extremely grateful. Arashi are really loved all over the world. I'm surprised and excited (^ ^)

WOW!! So it's true. It's been confirmed. XD

Congrats, Arashi Peru!

As an unofficial reminder on behalf of the mods at [info]arashi_on  , as much as it would be awesome for Arashi to hear about the fundraising effort on arashi_on that raised so much money, we cannot tweet to VS Producer Futagawa (@dandymasafumi) or Kan (@kankanp) about it.

If JE were to become aware of [info]arashi_on   , it would cause issues for all those people who upload and sub Arashi videos and this would, in turn, make it more difficult to keep up with our beloved boys. As such, we'll just have to be satisfied that we have all done a good deed and banded together to help those in need. :)

Isn't that why we did it in the first place?

I will note, however, that I did send a tweet to VS Producer Futagawa (without mentioning [info]arashi_on   ) noting that not just Peru had done fundraising but that fundraising had also been done by JE fans. He responded back acknowledging the tweet. So, Arashi is aware that other fundraising is going on beyond that of Peru.

Again, congrats, Arashi Peru!!
 

UPDATE (May 25, 2011):


I don't want to make another post so I'll just add this here. I was tweeting back and forth with VS Arashi Producer Futagawa and asked him what Arashi said when they heard the news.
 
Here's his response:
 
 
"They were amazed and appreciative. They said they were thankful that there are those who support them this much in foreign countries where their CDs aren't even sold."

 
 
Of course, I replied that they are sold on the Internet and that's where we buy them^^
 
Hehe, that solves the mystery of Arashi's reaction. Although it still would be nice to see a video of some sort. Oh well, beggars can't be choosers. Though I'll still cross my fingers >.>

THIS IS PRETTY OBVIOUS!
as I said before, once a staff knows = ARASHI KNOWS

he won´t be tweeting about it and never comment sth to the boys! Since he tweeted about it I knew for sure the boys will hear about it too!

I would be really happy if I were from Peru <3 [Brazil is not far,though]
My father says: Do Arashi even know you exist?
[info]haruno21 24th-May-2011 07:03 pm (UTC)
LOL, as if artists (no mather who or where) knew who are their fans, come on! that never happens.
[info]xxpopopxx 24th-May-2011 07:03 pm (UTC)
This is actually just awesome..... I mean Arashi are probably thinking Peru doesn't speak japanese right and even with the language barrier they still follow them, which I think is so cool that now Arashi knows that they are not just the top idol group in Japan but they are people around the world who support them ! Power of JE :D
[info]clairdelune371 24th-May-2011 07:08 pm (UTC)
Yes! I hope they're finally aware that they really have a lot of fans all over the world. Concerts pleaseeeeee XD

I'm sure that the boys always knew about their fans around the world. :D
All of us have our hearts tied up with their by a rainbow thread~!

Let's now continue to storm the rest of the world together with our beloved Arashi, shall we? :>
[info]love323able 25th-May-2011 12:39 am (UTC)
I am now thinking when they debuted.
Why was Arashi created?
"to make a storm around the WORLD"
XD oh aiba lol
and it has come true<3
[info]ori_quey 25th-May-2011 01:05 am (UTC)

[info]milichankazu 25th-May-2011 01:29 am (UTC)
this is true? ... my god !..... if it is a dream that I wake up !.... that
arashi has read the report that we did is so ... so wonderful!
[info]arashi4dream1 25th-May-2011 02:11 am (UTC)
I'm totally happy...honestly Arashi inspires to do so many things and it is great they acknowledge their international fans.

As peruvian, I feel proud for our fandom here that is a family and that's thanks to ARASHI.
[info]pnutbutterkelly 25th-May-2011 02:38 am (UTC)
Good for Peru, and good work to everyone! We know we did well at arashi_on, and that is all that should matter. It's just nice for the international Arashi fanbase to be acknowledged at all.
[info]pinky_fairy10 25th-May-2011 03:24 am (UTC)
LOVE IT &HEARTS;
they should open twitter accounts :/
[info]tennyo29 25th-May-2011 06:46 am (UTC)
*sigh* That would be the day. And then they'd get spammed with tweets every second of every day XD

I feel a bit sorry for Futagawa-san, tho. Since the announcement was made here about him retweeting the Yomiuri article, he has been absolutely SPAMMED with tweets from fans. He's been very good at replying though. Much respect for him.
