ARASHI'S Massive Popularity In Japan




*      2,000 boxes of special chocolates to promote Matsujun's Shitsuren Chocolatier drama that cost 2730 yen got sold out in less than 5 MINUTES. 
*      The lip-balm used by Aiba during Baba Arashi segment in VS Arashi 2014 New Year SP suddenly became no.1 on ranking sales after the episode was aired.
*      Sho's birthday present for Aiba, a blanket that cost 39,900 yen, got sold out everywhere after Aiba mentioned it on TV last year.
*      Sho's Kazoku Game promotional campaign, "Call this number and Yoshimoto Kouya will answer you", was cancelled the next day it's launched because the number was spammed by too many people.
*      After using Sho as their endorser, JINS! claimed that their sales rise by 60% last year.
*      A newspaper reported that Arashi Live Tour Love last year helped to raise the domestic flights rate by 8.4%.
*      The 5 trees that represented Arashi in JAL CM last year attracted so many people that the land of Hokkaido where the trees located became a tourists destination. The farmers later had to plant another tree because some ill-mannered fans went to invade the land without permission and stole the tree branches.
*      4 shrines all over Japan that COINCIDENTALLY named Ohno Shrine, Sakurai Shrine, Ninomiya Shrine and Matsumoto Shrine become so popular as Arashi fans think they'll get Arashi concert tickets if they pray there. The most popular is the Ohno Shrine which has been visited by thousands of Arashi fans, including the ones from Indonesia, Singapore, etc.
*      Publishing companies claimed that whenever they have Arashi on the cover of their magazines, the magazines will get sold out in a blink of eye.
