Inoue Mao graduates

Inoue Mao graduates from Meiji University, ceremony takes place at Budokan, a place filled with memories
Actress Inoue Mao (22), attended the Meiji University graduation ceremony at the Nippon Budoukan on the 26th of March. She spent 4 years in the Department of Literature. "I yearned for a normal campus life and I had one, making friends for life. The 4 years passed by in the blink of an eye," she said smiling in her green hakama. The Nippon Budoukan is a place filled with memories, where the final graduation scene of the popular drama Hana Yori Dango Returns was filmed. "The university entrance ceremony, Hanadan Returns graduation ceremony, the movie (preview event), and now my graduation, there seems to be a link between turning points of my life and the Budoukan. Many memories return."
Inoue Mao graduates from Meiji University... Meiji's "F4" was "a little different."
Actress Inoue Mao (22) graduated from Meiji University's Department of Literature on the 26th of March. She attended the graduation ceremony held at the Nippon Budoukan.
The graduation scene of 2007's Hana Yori Dango 2 was filmed in the same location. For the second ceremony, she wore a green hakama. "I made friends for life. The 4 years were more fun than I had imagined," she said, looking back over the years. For her graduation trip, she went to Hawaii for 5 days with her 4 girlfriends. For her part, she always plays the role of counsellor to them in love matters but when it comes to anticipated gokouns, "No one invited me." When she experienced a group date, "The guys side said 'We're Meiji's F4' but they're a little different," she said laughing.
She had juggled school and work previously, but now she will give her undivided attention to work. "I respect my friends who are going out looking for jobs in this time of a big recession. When my friends watch television, I want them to feel like giving their best." She has the lead role in the movie 'Boku no Hatsukoi wo Kimi ni Sasagu' which opens this autumn.

Arashi Around America Campaign
Hello, fandom! Today is the final rest day before our week of campaigning for AAA: Arashi Around America.
Between the time of my resurrecting the idea along with building and promoting the web page until now, I have gotten so many replies of support and so I'd like to say thank you firstly. Secondly, I just want to share my thoughts and feelings on this campaign and perhaps shed a little light on what I think may occur and how we should continue for this cause.
I want to bring numbers to your attention from the start.
Check out the web page's home page and look at the counter. At the time of my typing this, there have been exactly 6,626 visitors.
I wont use that total because anytime the page is refreshed, the number rises. So, I'll use a stagnant AND significantly lower number; Just give you an idea of the impact even a few fans can make.
Let's use the number 300.
Hypothetically speaking, we have 300 visitors who all plan on participating.
These 300 visitors all plan to send 1 e-mail to ALL 4 members.
300 multiplied by 4?
That is 1,200 e-mails alone!
Now I can't precisely decipher how many of those 6,000+ visitors aren't just from refreshing and second/third time visitors. However, I am sure we have had at least 200+ Unique Visitors. With that stated, this can lead to so much! Even a low number like 300 in comparison to the 6,000+ views this site has had can equal to a large amount of e-mails! The sheer fact of that gives me a lot of hope for our being recognized.
This leads me to the second point of promotion.
I am so proud because you, my friends and fellow fans have been so pleasantly helpful for this all. It's greatly appreciated and I don't want you to feel as though since the campaign is starting tomorrow that you have to stop promoting it.
Throughout the week, it doesn't matter when you begin – if you want to help out, do the best you can! For those who kindly linked the banners in your blogs or web pages – Thank You. For those who graciously took the time out to create and donate link banners – Thank You. It's all very touching to me and highly appreciated!
Thirdly and my last serious point is Have Fun with this!
This time, the very idea of this all is for fans to share their reasons with Arashi of why you support them so much and why you want to see them perform here! Do not make writing your e-mail a life or death situation. Just speak with your heart and let your genuine emotions flow through your writing. Hope and believe that even with the language barrier, your heartfelt messages with reach them.
