Arashi's Diary: Voyage (2019) User Reviews

Incredibly revealing

[droche-49966 · 8/10 · 15 February 2020]

I have been watching Arashi over the years, primarily through all of the dramas they have all acted in. And I've also seen the variety shows, their music and knew about their concert tours. But I never really thought about the incredible amount of work they must put in to achieve the success they have had. This series brings that point home. It is absolutely fascinating watching the group dynamics, the kinship they feel after being together for 20 years, the individual personalities but most of all, the dedication they feel for their craft. You might not love their music or dance or acting but you must respect their professionalism and the effort they put in. Only in Asia could you see five teenagers " giving up" their life to become stars and to work at it for 20 years. I wish each and every one of them well in the birth of their "second" life after Arashi.

My 2nd Family

These five guys have the priceless gift of being able to make you happy just by being themselves, which is why since discovering them only 4 years ago I watch at least one of their tv shows (of which there are many) at least once a day. This documentary of the lead-up to the group's hiatus has a more sombre feeling (understandably), which does take some getting used to when you've been accustomed to watching them goofing it up in their various 'variety' style programs, but it is rewarding to a fan like me and maybe even to those who might want to enter the industry in whatever capacity.

Each member is very honest about what their expectations were for 2020, and how covid almost dashed all of them, were it not for their (& their team's) ability to adapt to the situation. The final episode had me in tears (of course).

Terrible editing and not fun

This documentary was very disappointing. The editing was HORRIBLE and just in general soooooo boring. Wouldn't recommend.
