Arashi Disbandment: What It Means for Fans and How to Cherish Their Legacy

Question from a reader:
Is it true that Arashi is disbanding? I can’t believe there will be no new songs… What should I do?

Thoughts on Arashi’s Disbandment

Recently, I was honestly surprised to hear the news about Arashi disbanding! As a fan, I found myself internally shouting, “Wait, really?” When I think back, their music and performances are filled with
so many memories.

My First Concert

I went to my first Arashi concert when a friend invited me. When I arrived at the venue, I was so excited that I got there early, spending time with fellow fans looking at merchandise and snacking while waiting. The thrill of that moment is something I will never forget. I remember being unable to contain my excitement and asking my friend repeatedly, “Is it starting soon?” (laughs)

About the Final Tour

Thinking about the final tour next year brings a deep sense of nostalgia. For us fans, it’s both exciting and a bit sad to think about what kind of performances they will deliver for their last show. I’ve also heard that the final album will include new songs, which raises my expectations. With it being said that they will feature classic hits, I can’t help but feel excited about what those songs will be!

Personal Memories

By the way, I wonder what will happen to Ohno’s tattoo. His unique style was undoubtedly part of Arashi’s charm, so I’m curious to see what path he will choose to take after the disbandment.
