Shonen Club. Is there any better way to open the show than with one of my favourite songs and one of my favourite people? I don’t think so. Yuto is my one love (apart from a few others, but what the heck).

YUUUUTOOOOOO!!!!!
Great opening medley. Yay for Yuto, the greatest tallest star in the universe! And double yay for him and Shintaro stealing Yamachan‘s “shadow”. Yay for the other Shintaro, Kishimoto Shintaro, who’s the greatest 12-year-old that ever wore a white suit. Yay for Chino who is probably the shortest person that ever took center stage on Shonen Club. Yay for great songs.
And yay, I want to shave Fujigaya‘s head. Seriously.
Next up, the NYC boys medley which I’m not gonna post here because we’ve seen the exact same thing so many times before. But yay for Yuma. It was nice to see him back on Shonen Club.
Anyway, as you may or may not know I used to be a skateboarder when I was younger. I’m not doing it anymore because I’m lazy and, quite frankly, I sucked at it, but I still have a very soft spot in my heart for skateboarders. Unfortunately there haven’t been any decent skateborders in Johnny’s since…. since SMAP I guess. Well, ladies and gentlemen, meet 12-year-old Nakamaru Nakamura Reia of Snow Prince Gasshoudan (who if I remember correctly were supposed to be temporary until January)…

LOL, awesome! That was a friggin’ kickflip! I couldn’t do that when I was 12.
If Tony Hawk had seen that he would have been proud yo~.
Next was the we’re-reading-your-letters segment which is still as boring as ever, followed by a solo performance of KAT-TUN‘s Nakamaru which was actually pretty nice.
Question? wo abake was funny, LOL.
Next up B.I.Shadow with a performanced of You&You with a special guest…

Hm, Yugo didn’t break his legs which is kinda noteworthy. In fact, he seems to be better at tap dancing than at lip synching. Anyway, as much as I loved watching this performance it still kinda sucks that no matter what B.I.Shadow get to do there’s always someone stealing their limelight. If it’s not N, Y, and C then it’s Yuto. But having said that… OMG, YUUUUTOOOOOOO!!!!! ♥ Honestly, if he hadn’t debuted with Hey!Say!JUMP he’d be gone by now. Johnny usually doesn’t like guys that tall.
But anyway, at least Nakaken (OMG, NAKAKEEEEENNNN!!!!) got a little bit of attention in Ai no katamari, which would have been an awesome performance even without Nakaken:

And that’s it. This was a great fun episode, but now I’m looking forward to next week when Hey!Say!7 (with a little help from Hikaru and Daiki) will be there to perform Hitomi no Screen.
To sum it all up: yay for a great episode, but boo for poor YouTube video quality. Sorry ’bout that.
Oh, and before you ask: yes, the Nakamura Reia mp3 was a joke because I’m awesome like that.
Good night everybody.
