I think this is a wonderful idea. Thank you for this opportunity.

You're entirely welcome. I'm in tears here out of pure frustration at not being able to do anything for him and I know how much pain even the slightest broken bone can cause, so I don't think it's a small deal. I'll make sure I can get as many messages across as possible and keep everyone updated on the progress. ^_^

thanks for doing this ^_^ i hope he reads it and feels our love ^^

You're welcome. I know he always feels our love, but this time I really wanted to do something special for him considering his accident. I'll do my best to get it to him.

I feel so frustrated because I can't do anything to help but this is a great way to help him, so thank you for giving us this opportunity!

The way you feel is the reason I started this. I was strung out and in tears because there was nothing I could do for him. Then I thought of this. ^_^ I'll do my best to make it all work out.

This is a great idea. I hope you can relay these messages to him. ^^ I wrote a message in Japanese, but my writing skills are extremely rusty. xP

I read your post. Your Japanese is fine. ^_^

thanks for doing tis....i never imagine dat my msg can reach Shokun
hope this will go smoothly and shokun will recover faster..having all the support from his fan all over d world..
i'll spread this news to all arashi's fans
lastly...thank u!!!
i'm working on my msg now (^_^'')

I know what you mean. I'll do my best to make sure he gets our combined message, and all our love! ^_^

Please do spread the word.

When are you sending this? It's a nice thought. ^_^

Two options in mind, either sending it to the company directly, or, if they're accepting gifts on behalf of Arashi, I'll submit it when I go to Fukuoka Dome for their concert. In any case, I'm hoping to have this formally prepared and sent before their concert in Fukuoka.

Thank you so much for doing this! I really appreciate the effort to show our love for the ARASHI members, even if it is as small as something like this.

Thanks for showing your love and support to the cause! ^_^ I'll do my best to make sure this message gets through.

Heyheyyy :D

Wow you're awesome, thanks for thinking of doing something as sweet as this for sho-kun! :] ..will they accept gifts on behalf of arashi at Fukuoka Dome though? =X In any case, I think it's a great idea (and so do tons of other Arashi fans, judging by the number of comments thus far)! :D

Speaking of bones though, I hope yours has been healing well! Then you'll be able to jump around at the fukuoka cons, while sho-kun will hopefully be able to wiggle his thumb too XD

Two weeks more (yes i'm counting down), and I absolutely can't wait! Am looking forward to meeting you ^_^ (sorry this is off-topic I supposed :p)

No you're awesome for showing Sho-chan that you care! (^_~)d

I'm still trying to find out from a friend who went to the Nagoya concert (yes, the concert in question) to see if they accept gifts on behalf of Arashi members there (they did when I went to the Hikawa Kiyoshi concerts but then again he is only ONE man with a considerably smaller fan base). If not then I will be sending it to the office for Johnny's to accept on Sho-chan's behalf.

I won't be doing any JUMPING at the cons but I'm hoping to party with the best of them. From personal experience I think that in two weeks Sho will be itching to hold his microphone again but just can't, and it might annoy him a bit. But hey, you're the doc not me. ;p

If I give it at the con, you're going to be carrying the fruit/flowers for me. XD

Hi! I've just dropped here to say i'm really grateful for what u are doing.

I've done a post in Vox, talking about ur idea and leaving ur link there, so i hope more ppl will come and leave a comment.

Thank you so much for spreading the word! The more, the better! ^_^

Ok, first off, thanks for doing this!! Sorry to hear you also had a broken bone!

By the time I read your post their were over 100 comments O_O I think this will show Sho how much we care, so thanks for doing this. I also like how many put where they are from it shows their are fans from lots of countries!

You should see some of the countries coming through! There are a heap from Brazil and Mexico and I even found one from Turkey!

Sho-chan is loved worldwide and I intend to prove that to him in his time of need! ^^

*hugs + glomps on you!* you are awesome for doing this! i'm gonna put in my message after this.

*glomps back* Yay! It's been forever since I've been glomped! *glomps you again* And thanks for showing our boy how much you care!

I just wanted to say thank you for doing this! I hope the messages will be able to get to him. When do you think you'll be printing these off and trying to send/deliver them?

I've put a time limit up now. Submissions will be closed next Monday and then I'm hoping to make a small booklet the be finished before the Fukuoka concert. ^_^

Dear Sakurai-san!
Fans all over the world have already know about your wound. Look at what have you done! You're making people all around the world worry about you; you make Arashi worry about you; you make Aibaka-san worry about you... You're bad!
But, the one who's worth is us, we can't do anything but sending messages and out whish to you. So, don't let Aiba-san worry too much for you or he's gonna turn crazy. Don't push yourself so hard so you can dance you "ichiban" dancing again soon.
Take care and remember, there is all the world behind your back So,... Good bye!

Thank you for such a thoughtful idea. I am sure Sakurai will cherish it very much. :)

I'm going to prove to that boy that he is loved worldwide, most especially in his time of need! ^^ Thanks for helping contribute to that!

Thanks for showing your love and support!

Thanks soooooo much for beiong so thoughtful as to create such a post dedicated for Sho-kun's recovery...and for giving us the opportunity to write to him as well. It gave me great joy reading comments posted by other fans. Man! Arashi can really bring the whole world together in one place ne? hehehe~ ^_________^

anhu, GET WELL SOON wishes to you as well~
i added you as a friend ne? Daaaaaisuki! X3

You have no idea how beautifully this is coming along. I scan each and every comment and it's been bringing tears to my eyes! So many beautiful words from some many beautiful people worldwide! Thank you for being one of them! ^_^

anoo... I forgot to write my name and I couldn't delete my message and rewrite it. I'll post a new one, can ya help me delete the old one without my name?

PS: You're brilliant for doing this! Thanks a whole bunch!

Fixed. Thanks for showing Sho-chan how much you care! ^_^

Hey~ I've got a question regarding the booklet layout.
no motifs or pictures relating directly to Arashi (I know we're fans but the company is extremely uptight about copyright issues)
Would fanart be ok?
Motifs & pictures is like mag scans and their show logos right?

I would have to say no to fanart because it wouldn't really turn out too well with writing all over it anyway. Plus I don't wanna risk it - they are pretty strict.

I was wondering if you could help me check my Japanese for my message to Sho.

On a second thought I should just post it in English. Ok, I'm really in a dilemma now.

It would be really great of you to help me check my Japanese for my message to Sho but if you can't it's alright. Please give me a reply(:

I would like to help you but I don't know who you are or how to contact you. O.O Anyway, I hope you come back soon! ^_^

Just wanted to stop by and say that I am extremely grateful that you are doing this. *hugs*

*Hugs* ^_^ It's the only thing I can do. I wish there was even more that I could do for him.

Hi! I'm kinda new here in LJ.
And i'm really glad to see your post ^_^
this was a great idea, I hope it would turn out alright!
arigatou! :D

Thanks for showing your love and support! ^_^ I'll do my best to get everyone's heartfelt wishes to the poor man himself.

I'm not good at English.
So, the only thing I want to tell you is "thank you".
Your idea is wonderful.. i love it ^___^

Umm... i've some question...
i was thinking.. i'm not good at english so i might draw a card (something like that) and scan it to post in your comment. is that possible? also, i don't know how to post a picture in the comment box (am i asking you too much? so sorry T____T)

anyway, thank you so much ^___^

Sure. You can draw something, and I'll do my best to include it. Give me a link to it by commenting here and I'll take a look. I'll do my best but maybe I can't include it, because I don't suddenly want a million pictures from fans though.

A simple English message is just fine too. You're English sounds ok to me. ^_^
