As mentioned in this post, Jaru Jaru & Total Tenbosu appeared on the show School Revolution (スクール革命)!
I watched it today and it was pretty interesting.
One thing I didn't mention in my previous post (because I didn't realize it until later) was that Uchimura hosts it as well! I was pretty excited to see that.
Jaru Jaru & Total Tenbosu were featured as "Break-out Geinin." They were asked questions regarding that, and also showed their busy schedules.
The two acts each have eight regular shows in between them! On a funny note, Total Tenbosu didn't even recollect two of the shows listed.
A typical schedule for Jaru Jaru includes bouncing back and forth between Tokyo and Osaka by bullet train and plane. Sounds tiring!
However, they spoke of their success and steady schedules in good spirits. Of course though - who doesn't want to be busy in their career?
When asked how they finally decided to join NSC, Fukutoku explained that they sent text messages to each other, making the pact to go for it. Looking back at what they said (something about 男気, chivalrous spirit) it sounds really uncool. It's okay, they were fiery young men. 大丈夫だと思います！（笑）
Another funny Jaru Jaru moment was a story by Gotou, where he mentioned how his younger brother got a job with ANA. ANA is large airline company in Japan.
Well Jaru is the pronunciation of JAL, another airline company. Whether that's where Jaru Jaru got their name, I'm not sure and it's not relevant.
Anyways, his mother was like, "You're ANA and you're brother is JAL," and laughed a lot at her own joke apparently. Moms. ^^;;
Afterwards, I believe they followed the next corner up explaining how Ohmura from Total Tenbosu plays pranks on his partner, Fujita.
So they showed two of the pranks. One was where he put sparkler fireworks in his cigarettes. The other was when he covered the floor with lubricant so he'd slip. If he goes through that all the time - that is quite amazing!
So then it became a showdown!
Jaru Jaru's Fukutoku set up a false briefing for a television apperance that Gotou wasn't aware of. They had a fake manager go in. The catch is - she slapped anyone who disagreed with her! There was a small prank in there too where the profile on the papers given wasn't even of Jaru Jaru - it was of Total Tenbosu. LOL
Anyhow, the ladt ends up slapping Gotou after Fukutoku disagreed about something. He just mildly agreed. ._. 優しい！ It was kind of sad, more so than funny since he didn't get angry. XD
Then, Kasuga played a prank of Wakabayashi. He put a baby pig in his green room! Apparently, Wakabayashi is afraid of pigs. It wasn't anything they stated, but he was jumping on the chair and table to get away from it! Also, Kasuga got tsukommi'd a good 2~3 times! It was great. ^o^
Afterwards there was a section with the regulars that featured nabe! I've never tried nabe yet, but I hope to this Fall/Winter in Japan!
All in all, it was an interesting show. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't so good that I'd watch again - lest another group of geinin I like appear. [:

Rough Translation of the above article below!
January 10th was the release date for Audrey's new DVD, "Audrey's All Night Nippon." They held a commemorate event at Tower Records in Shibuya in honor of it.
The event was capped at 150 lucky people who won when they bought the DVD.
The program started in October of 2009 and has since met considerable success.
At the event, they also engaged in two popular corners from the radio show, 100ギネスを持つ男 and アメフトの小部屋. 1
At the end, Audrey told the guests, "We'll continue doing All Night Nippon with this feeling, so please send us listener mail."
1. I wasn't sure how to translate these without making no sense. Roughly it's like "Man with 100 Guinness," and "American Football Roomette."
I guess what confused/confuses me is...they film radio shows? Why not show it on TV? Might be my simple mind though - it's on radio for a reason. XD

When in Japan last summer, I got the lucky chance to buy two issues of Owarai Popolo (お笑いポポロ). However, I went to Los Angeles recently to take the JLPT-3級 exam.
When I went to this Japanese magazine store to try and buy "December's issue," they told me they didn't have it. I thought, "Hmm...what's up with that?" Then they told me it's like a quarterly magazine. /orz
So now that it's January, there's a new issue! For February, no less. LOL

I honestly know nothing about this show. Younger Johnny's host it. HeySayJump, B.I. Shadow. JE is my other large fandom. However by JE I mean, "Arashi, Kanjani 8, and TOKIO." Anyone else pretty much goes under my news radar.
Audrey and Hironari Yamazaki (山崎弘也) of the group Untouchable (アンタッチャブル) are hosts as well. Audrey really are apart of a lot of shows, huh??
Seeing that Jaru Jaru very rarely appear on anything though, this may something I go out of the way to watch. I've seen two Jaru Jaru apperances.
1. Shabekuri 007
2. 99Plus w/ Shizuru
Both of which were entertaining, but I was more struck with, "It's Jaru Jaru! Not on Red Theater! Amazement!" than anything!
I know they have a local show in Kansai. Which means that unless some kind soul decides to record it, foreign fans like myself are screwed. Then again, even Kanto region fans are screwed! So I can't complain much.
Seeing that it gets uploaded to my owarai source, I will happily be able to watch it! Not to mention, Johnny's media is not very hard to find now! I see some back episodes with people I know so I may check out an episode or to before Jaru Jaru's. [:
Jaru Jaru (ジャルジャル) & Total Tenbosu (トータルテンボス) will be guests on School Revolution (スクール革命) tomorrow!

【つっち、つっち！】 My Blackberry background at the moment, found on Pixiv!
Today, I was on Pixiv, looking through all 182 pages of Owarai fanart. That was the highlight of my day. I got so many, so much cuteness! It was an overload, seriously. I'm a happy camper. [:
Audrey and Non Style had the most fan art by far. They do traditional manzai comedy though. Which is basically stand up comedy here, but still has its own flavor. It's a category of its own and its kinda tough to do and understand. However, they do it well!
I prefer skit comedy, which is called conto in Japan. Red Theater, The Three Theater, etc are conto shows. Hannya is predominantly a conto combi (duo, pair). Since I grew up watching Saturday Night Live and In Living Color, it's pretty natural for me to lean towards conto, really. I love the different characters and (on Red Theater, for instance) situations they're put in to.
There's your tiny Owarai Lesson of the day.
I also learned today that there are many I guess...nicknames/abbreviated states for random comedians I like.
I saw Wagaya referred to as My Home (マイホーム) which is just the translation of their name. Warai no 3LDK which is like "Comedy's 3 Room House," because there are three members and their name refers to a house.
Then for both Wagaya, Shizuru, Kanada, and Kanada's character Kosatani, I saw a few artists who removed the vowels from their names regularly.
So Shizuru becomes SZR.
Wagaya is WGY.
Kanada was KND.
And Kosatani KSTN.
...and Destini becomes DSTN! LOL You can do it for any Japanese word or any...constant-ed...thing. Really. LOL
Then, Rozan was called 63 a lot. I assume its ro(ku), zan (or san, the s turns to z in a compound?) Or something.
