• MADE ni Omakase (5 Sep)

  
  

  • Massu was mentioned in Kento’s entry, when he shared an episode from MBBQBDP (Massu BBQ BirthDay Party) about how when you mention summer in Japan, you have to have “suikawari” (watermelon smashing game). So they bought a watermelon, but everyone ended up so full they couldn’t eat it, and he had to bring it home. It was taking up too much space in the fridge, so his mother and him decided to cut the watermelon up, add in different fruits and make some stylish fruit punch with it. He also shared quite a few photos of the fruit punch in the entry.

  
  



• NEWS Ring (6 Sep)

  
  

  • It was Shige’s turn to update this week

  
  

  • He apologised for not being able to update as he’s been busy with rehearsals. He’s usually the type who hates missing deadlines, so he’s sorry he was late with the update. He talked about how his days are spent on “Green Mile” these days, and how there are a lot more going on but nothing he can share at the moment. He also hasn’t met the members since 24hr TV and he wonders how they are doing. There aren’t that many things he can share as his hands are filled with work and he can’t think of other things. He’s sure the member for the following week will write something interesting, and said he’d update CLOUD if there are updates. And wished everyone who read the entry happiness.

  
  



• KEIICHIRO (7 Sep)

  
  

  • He shared an update from the drama, on how they’ve decided what to call each other (refer to the TV news section). It was decided pretty quickly what to call Tamamori, but they took some time for Furukawa. They asked him what the fans called him, and he said “Furupon”. Since it’s so cute they decided to go with that. Koyama volunteered that fans call him “Kei-chan” and even though Tamamori protested that it’s impossible for him to call Koyama that, he insisted. There are also punishments for calling each other other than the predetermined names, so Tamamori is doing his best to call him Keichan.

  
  

• Koyama was mentioned in Kis-My-Ft 2’s radio, with Tamamori sharing with Kitayama, how Koyama is a social monster, or so he claims himself. Kitayama: But he’s never spoken to me! Tamamori: That’s probably because we’re from the same agency. They also mentioned how Koyama presented Tamamori with a Sorajiro when he talked about how much he liked it at KMF’s concert.
