I can't believe there isn't an Aragaki Yui thread already, maybe she's unpopular outside of Japan? Oh well, there's at least 2 Gacky fans here and that's all that matters.

I can't wait for her new drama, Code Blue. She's going to star with Toda Erika again!! As well as Yamapi! This will be her 2nd time starring with them. It'll be aired on July 3rd, 3 days before her single 'Make my day' is released and a perfect way to spend the 4th of July! Anyone else here a fan of Yui?

Introduction

This is the official H!O trip to Japan taking place in 2009. The test trip, the 2008 one, has been canceled altogether but if there are those who still wish to go on 2008, we'll try to help you to the best of our abilities. I need everyone who can/wants to go to post here with a percent of going. (i.e. so if you're unsure, you can put 60% or if you're absolutely sure you can put 110%) The costs will be slightly different than last time so you should look over the chart again. We'll definitely need a cellphone in Japan just in case. All of us do not need one, but at least one cell per group should be fine.

No doubt, it's going to be impossible to move as one uber group made up of a dozen or more people, so I guess we'll divide into groups. Especially when we're taking the Taxi or something. But I can't really say who's in what group yet, still need to see who is actually coming.

Hotel Location

The hotel we will be staying at is the Keio Plaza Hotel in Tokyo. I understand that this may be too expensive for some people, so we'll be looking for alternatives that are near-by. If it does turn out that we must have separate hotels, we will meet up at the Keio Plaza lobby every morning before we all head out.

The rooms are available in 3 sizes. There's the single, which costs a lot so don't even bother with that (roughly $172/£86). The Double and the Triple have the best value. The Double costs $94/£47 per person, and the Triple costs $82/£41 per person. So it really depends on you.

Total Costs

1 Week - $2258/£1129

$170 - food
$658 - apartment / hotel
$1400 - flight
$30 - bus, train etc. (1 trip/day)

2 Week - $3116/£1558

$340 - food
$1316 - apartment / hotel
$1400 - flight
$60 - bus, train etc. (1 trip/day)

3 Week - $3964/£1982

$500 - food
$1974 - apartment / hotel
$1400 - flight
$90 - bus, train etc. (1 trip/day)

Keep in mind that these are rough estimates. They're to give you an example of what Japan would cost. The actual costs could be a lot cheaper or a lot more expensive.

Destinations

We'll go to Kyoto for sightseeing, lots of beautiful scenery there. But we're mainly staying in Tokyo though unless there's someplace else that you want to visit. I'm going to try and put a Googlemap here with the places we want to visit marked so post places that you'd like to visit so we can try and see as much of Japan as possible.

H!P concert tickets

Base price is 6400円 - 8400円 for a ticket, but they quickly hit 8400円- 10000円. Not too bad I suppose, it's roughly $100 for a ticket. Himalia will be taking care of ordering the tickets. Depending on the date and schedule of the concert, we may be able to attend multiple concerts during our stay.

Sign-in Form

I would like everyone interesting in coming to use the following form.

Percent sure on going:
Places I'd like to go:
Hotel I'd like to stay at: (Keio or alternative)
Members I'd like to be grouped with: (if any)
H!P concerts I'd like to attend: (Berryz, MM, H!P, C-ute, etc..)

Did anyone else see this movie yet? This one was really good, lots of laughs though there were some "stupid humor" parts, it was mostly really great.

Jackie can speak Japanese!

Well, the series has finally ended. I waited to see if anyone else was going to make a topic about this anime, but I guess I'll start it.

You can download it over at the [gg] BT tracker. http://lesbianocracy...h_button=Search

I really urge everyone to watch this anime, as it's probably one of the best anime's of all time; similar to that of what Evangelion did for the 1990's, Code Geass is THE anime of the new millennium. It's full of mechs, a fantastic plot, great characters, and lots of betrayal and plot twists.

All of the MP3's that I've downloaded from the site don't have an image embedded on them so when I use Album Flow on the iTunes, it looks really bland when there's absolutely no pictures. So I wondering if there was a program that allowed you to embed images into MP3 files and have them show up on iTunes.
