... cos clubbox actually behaved itself last night and I woke up to find Tacchon/Yoko/Maru Sarudie, NEWS second appearance on Domoto Kyoudai, and this weeks Honjani had all finished.  Very happy!  There's another live stage on Honjani this week (can it be a coincidence that they've started these again after over a year with only Sukiyanen, Oh Enka & Mugendai actual performances, and PV/concert clips the rest of the time, with the rumours of pink ranger's reappearance?  Probably not!) and it's Heat Is On - double happy!  Now all they need to do is Kanashii Koi and Misetekure and I'll be ecstatic... though I wouldn't say no to Carnival and Hatenaki Sora either!  Performance was excellent, and being sung live made it even better.  Will have to watch the episode properly tonight but it was diving and from what I saw as I flicked through it: they got to torture each other during the warm-up stretching, one of them got rather scared at the height he was expected to jump from, one did a painful looking bellyflop, and one of them was really good at it.

Watched parts of a couple of Shonen Clubs last night - the NEWS produced Xmas ep, and Kusano's as well.  Loved his solo song; his english pronounciation is actually surprisingly good.  Having Toma on the Xmas one was wonderful - Pi was so happy to have his other half there, and there was clearly a Xmas wedding at the end of the show!
