When there was an exam coming (probably about a month before the actual date of exam), he puts everything related to his career on hold, cancels or postpones his appearances in public, and spends his time at home (or in the library whenever he feels like it) studying. Best time to be free to do any extracurricular activities or resume his career is right after exam period .

12.   His favourite TV channels (or rather the ONLY TV channels that he watches on TV) are MTV and the Discovery Channel.

13.   His favourite magazine is Newsweek.

14.   He cannot go to sleep at night without reading a good book (a (classic?) novel, textbook, reference book, etc.) beforehand.

15.   He doesn’t feel comfortable or confident enough to take his shirt off just for a photo shoot (but if that’s what the director/photographer wants, then so be it…).

16.   His ideal girl? Sweet, simple, smart-dressed (no spaghetti-strapped blouses, no short one-piece dresses, no short-ass, tight-ass daisy duke shorts, etc.), non-smoking, NON-CELEBRITY girl WITH brains and an independent mind of her own.

17.   When he’s got a lot of time in his hands, he surfs in the Internet.

18.   He has a huge interest in history in general and hopes to study the field of History right after he earns his Bachelor’s Degree in.

19.   his days (especially his first days) are quite interesting.  Fans in Japan actually say that it’s easier to find Sho in Keio than in the TV studios, which is why lots of fangirls invaded Keio U. back then just to see Sho.

20.   Sho’s pet peeve is that he loses his cool easily (but he’s been trying to control himself regarding this pet peeve).

21.   There is a known incident among us fans that back when Sho was a Jr. and was on his way to the studios, he caught a fan taking pictures of him.

22.   Instead of acknowledging or ignoring, he actually came up to this girl, grabbed her camera, and threw it right at the subway tracks and started scolding her about Johnny’s rules and why she should follow them (one of the rules is that fans are not allowed to take pictures of idols whether if it’s on the scene or off the scene or even candid shots)

23.   There’s also another scene where Sho was entering Keio U. to take his entrance exams (so he could get in to the university).

24.   There was a mob of fans screaming and gawking at him as he was entering the gates.  Then the screaming got louder that Sho actually turned around to the fans and creamed “URUSAI YO!!” (shut up!) and few seconds later, all the fans fell silent as he entered the campus quietly.

25.   he takes everything seriously.

26.   His childhood is kind of pressuring because of his family background.  If you’re a kid whose parents have high-ranking positions such as a politician and a university professor, everyone would expect you to become someone successful, like a CEO of a corporation or a lawyer or something.

27.   Sho chose the entertainment industry because he always wanted to dance.  When he joined Jrs., of course, his friends and supporters were happy, but his parents are not exactly happy and those in their “social circle” looked down on the entire Sakurai Family (not just Sho, but the ENTIRE family) for having a son who is so incredibly gifted and talented to choose something “low” such as the entertainment biz.

28.   In other words, Sho’s days as Jr. isn’t exactly hunky-dory when it comes to his parents/family.

29.   But he proved everyone that he could still be a prestigious young man despite of him deciding to become an idol. He spent more time studying in school than his career that he even worked with Johnny and staff to work a schedule with him.

30.   There was another known story in which in the middle of the “Heaven Cannot Wait” drama filming that he had to ditch the shooting to get to class.  The director complained of Sho’s disappearance that he called Johnny for it (to get Sho in trouble), but Johnny just said: “He ditched because he had to go to class.  Wait until he returns.”

31.   Sho is truly one of the most hardworking idols in the entertainment biz (and not just Johnny’s).  This is why in Johnny’s, a lot of the younger idols respect him big time, like no one wants to mess w/ him, no one wants to get him mad.

32.   They call him Sakurai-senpai or even Sakurai-sama to the extreme because of that.

33.   A lot of Arashi fans (non-Sho fans) think that Sho is straight out unfriendly (I don’t blame Sho though), but see, that’s because these fans don’t understand what he’s gone through in the past, so much that sometimes he can’t help himself but snap out and lose his cool towards certain things.

34.   He finally gained the respect that he deserved from his family and his family’s social circle of intellects and successful individuals right after he graduated with a Bachelor’s in Economics.

35.   Especially w/ a BS (bachelor of science) in Economics at least his family knows that he does somehow plan to go further in to working in an industry based on the field of study that he took.

36.   When he is in Keio, he is there as a student, not as an idol.  He gets annoyed when other students act like psychopathic fangirls and scream and follow him around campus.

37.   In the beginning he was a loner because everyone is intimidated by him and his background, but it wasn’t until his first day of English class that he finally met and became friends w/ some of the guys there and made friends w/ 2 girls in that class (both are actually nerdy geeky girls who actually had no clue who Sho is).

38.   From then on he didn’t like being alone, he always stuck w/ his classmates… it’s like his friends are almost like his bodyguards.

39.   he talked in his sleep during 2002 Summer Concert. Ohno who was in the same room heard it very clearly at around 6am saying “let Aiba sleep!”. But he himself didn’t know anything about it.

40.   he doesn’t eat between meals.

41.   when he went 伊豆 hot spring with Myojo for shooting, it so happened that it was the place he went with his family 10 years ago. He called his mom on the spot just because of this.

42.   Arashi Car usually comes to fetch Sho after getting Ohno, Sho once saw Ohno’s feet on the manager’s head when he opened the car door… (大野くん, 何あってんのよ….)

43.   when he went outdoor shooting with Aiba on ‘Uso! Japan’, they interviewed a pop idol group. Sho said without thinking that he knew their songs, and sang quite awkwardly. But Aiba on the other hand, was singing along rather happily… (やっぱり相葉ちゃんだね~)

44.   「真夜中の岚」card reading prophesized that he’ll have to retain class (we all know it didn’t come true)
45.   his brother calls him ‘Bambi’ after watching ‘Kisarazu Cat’s Eye’

46.   his results are good, so his teachers wrote a recommendation letter for him to take the examination to enter Keio

47.   his father was a student from Keio since young, graduated in Todai, now a politition.His mother’s an English Literature teacher. He has a sister younger than him by 5 years, named 舞 and a brother younger than him by 13 years named Shu,修

48.   Aiba and Ohno influenced him to be less calculative about things.

49.   during the audition part of the Summer Concert, he was super nervous because he can hear fans talking as he sat quite close to them

50.   his ‘girlfriend preferences’ are quite similar to Ohno’s… (oooh, 危ない!)

51.   seem to like Aiba a lot lately, even ‘ex-love’ Nino complained about this in envy. After the photoshooting session for April’s DUET, he left with Nino. Later, he came back alone to the shooting scene to wait for Aiba instead. (wowzers… but then… 本当二遅いな相葉ちゃん… still not done yet after 翔くんreturned)

52.   he joined the Boy’s Brigade before, but he was bullied so he quit after 3 days joining (翔くんbeing bullied?! 信じられない～)

53.   in June, he got to know that they’re debuting with Nino

54.   he’s building up on his muscles (yeah, it’s pretty obvious)

55.   fast-thinker

56.   he was considered a senior in Johnny’s Junior before Arashi was formed.

57.   because he’s the rapper in Arashi, Japanese (who have bad English, really) calls him ‘raper Sho’ (what the?!!! Sho doesn’t go around raping girls!!!)

58.   he’s quite close to Imai Tsubasa. And there’s even a reason for it, because their name has the kanji character 井 and 羽

59.   he was called ‘Piano King’ in Music Jump

60.   he becomes super monstrous when he’s angry

61.   on the first day og entering his university, he asked for Nino’s help because he didn’t know how to fix his tie

66.   once Sho thought it was his fan following him and hit her with his umbrella. it ended up being some random person just walking by him.

67.   Sho was telling the MAD jr’s to “HURRY UP!” because the MAD jr’s were too busy sending out peace signs during the Korea concert

68.   Sho liked tangerines so much so one day he ate so many tangerines that he ended up wetting his bed. From that day on, tangerines were out-lawed at Sho’s house.

69.   Once when Sho went to the convenience store there were girl students going crazy over Yamapi. They were looking at some magazine. Because Sho wanted to show off his kouhai he told the girls, “he’s a really close kouhai of mine!” but the problem is the girls didn’t know who he was.

70.   When Yamapi and Kame were filming Nobuta wo Produce. They fell upon Sho backstage. Sho was on the phone and the first person he was talking, he was talking so respectively. Then the second phone call he was talking down to as if it were a friend. So Yamapi & Kame decided that the first person was Johnny & the second person was probably his manager. After Sho got off the phone they were so curious so they asked Sho whom it was. It so happens the first person was his manager and the second person was Johnny.

Onho Satoshi Facts

1.   He's the leader of Arashi, not just because he's the oldest, but because of a little small round of jankenpoi ("rock-paper-scissors") with the other guys before their official debut.
2.   If you've seen the movie The Sixth Sense, it's a bad idea to joke about Haley Joel Osment's character--- Ohno HAS that same sixth sense, and yes... he sees dead people to all kinds of creepy stuff appearing from out of nowhere...
3.   Within the group, he is the most picked-on member (as well as being the most talked-about member) among the group.
4.   I wouldn't call him "peculiar," but the only reason why he seems quiet whenever you see him in guest appearances is because his mind is always wandering off somewhere in his own world...
5.   If you hear a few of their songs and hear that sweet, romantic-sounding singing voice, it's most likely going to be Oh-chan (if not, Nino...)-- he's in charge of the melodic vocals in all their songs... well, most of it anyway.
6.   He is mostly seen in stage musicals than in TV dramas. He only appeared on two TV dramas--- one in V no Arashi and the other in Speed Star. In other words, he's the only member who will be less likely be seen on any TV drama series at all... O_o;
7.   Oh-chan's inspiration, main confidant, and even his own personal manager? His mother.
8.   Oh-chan's "other" career option--- an artist! He has excellent skills in drawing practically anything... painting as well? When he was in school, art was his MAJOR passion and nothing else.
9.   At the time before he was picked to debut in the upcoming new group Arashi, he was also having thoughts of quitting Johnny's to pursue his art profession. Fortunately when he was offered to debut, he decided to take it and see where this debut career of his as part of an idol group would lead him to...
10.   Though we all know that Ohno's best talent is art, he stated that his "real" special skill among all is sleeping. He is farsighted, therefore he needs to wear a pair of reading glasses every time he reads something. Like Matsujun, who is nearsighted, he also makes himself look good by wearing contacts in public, stage, and screen.
11.   He also has a bit of trouble reading the Japanese written language. Though he has no problems reading Romanji (alphabet), don't count on him reading the written English language. He'll drag Sho to read (and translate) all the English for him. He just passed the national Kanji test two years ago so he shouldn't have anymore "reading" problems.
12.   Aiba and Nino said he looks like someone who’d never tell the members when he gets married, and will hide it till the end. Sho said maybe there’ll be this one day when they received Ohno’s divorce report then they’ll know that Ohno was married
13.   He said he admires someone when he went on Aiba’s program on 16th August, “Aiba Masaki desu” (is this a confession?)
14.   Also on Aiba’s program that day, someone said that in “All or Nothing” Sho’s rap for “you know what I mean” sounds like “ra-men”, Ohno said that’s exactly what he thought
15.   Ohno said he was absent from Pino because no one invited him. Actually he was assigned for recordings, but it was cancelled last minute, he got a free holiday. The three members who were there said: “then you should come!” but Ohno said he only got to know about it after reading the next day’s paper, thinking while reading “how come I’m not inside?”
16.   His birth time, 0907
17.   “When he walks, his eyes are closed” –Sho
18.   When people say Sho’s more fit to be Arashi’s leader, Sho said Ohno is Arashi’s protector (how sweet...)
19.   On the first day of their concert, when he was halfway to Tokyo station he realized he forgot his shoes, so he rushed home to get it. He came back in time, but was already all sweaty (partially because he was nervous)
20.   His fans are usually older, just like his mom, they always say that he’s cute
21.   During their summer concert they had to change on stage. When he took off his pants and saw his underwear, he realized he forgot to wear another white shorts inside, fans were laughing while the crews searched for a pair of pants for him (how embarrassing)
22.   He’ll never be any of the members’ love rival, if such thing does happen, he’ll get out of it voluntarily
23.   he stupidly talked about another program while he was on Aiba’s program, Aiba who rarely shows his temper couldn’t resist warning him too....
24.   When they were recording A.Ra.Shi, he didn’t know that was their debut song
25.   Their third day in Hawaii, (one week before Arashi debuted), then he realized that they’re debuting
26.   before Arashi was formed, all he cared about was sleep, now he is more concerned about work
27.   he’s really reluctant to sleep with Jun, and is trying to stop Jun from requesting it for the second time (0.o)
28.   he’s actually 165cm, though it’s publicly shown as 168cm
29.   he’s worried that he’s growing fatter
30.   Dohmoto Tsuyoshi thinks he’s the upcoming pretty boy
31.   he was once voted Pretty Boy No. 1 in a magazine
32.   cares for others
33.   usually doesn’t bring money when he leaves the house (wonder how he survives)
34.   he was found drunk outside of a convenience store. he was totally drunk and waiting for someone when Sho came out with a bottle of water. Sho gave him the bottle of water and the two started laughing and began to walk off.
35.   he was standing at the platform waiting for the train but even though the train came he wasn't getting on. So someone next to him asked, "aren't you going to get on?" and he suddenly looked surprised and said, "ah, thank you!" and then got on.
36.   Jun asked him to go eat ramyun. Jun whined and whined but Ohno said he was too lazy to go out. One day, Ohno wanted to eat ramyun and thought of Jun, but the thought of having to leave the house was too bothersome so instead Ohno drew a picture of Jun's face and placed it on the table and made himself a cup of ramyun.
37.   after a concert Ohno was drunk. he went around getting angry at the juniors asking where his ramyun was. the whole time the ramyun was in his hand. The juniors went to Sho and tattled.
38.   We all know that Ohno is a good artist. Well, he started drawing in 3rd grade, thanks to "Dragonball." He had a friend who was into it as well, so they'd always be competitive trying to outdo each other with Dragonball drawings.
39.   He says his parents raised him liberally. They never told him to study or anything.
40.   We know that Ohno is *extremely* close to his mom. When he goes home late at night, she is always up waiting for him. He sometimes texts her saying "You can go to sleep," but she always waits for him. He asked her why and she replied that he might not like it if he comes home late from work and the house is all dark. This really touched him, because she also has to work the next day at 5AM. To Ohno, she is more like a friend than a parent.
41.    His mom came to the Johnny's audition with him. At the audition, it surprised him to see Katori-kun (Katori Shingo from SMAP); he was familiar with him because his sister liked him. Everyone started dancing at the audition, but Ohno stood in the back and didn't dance. -_- Instead, he waved at his mom and said hi. Then Johnny-san spotted him and yelled, "What are you doing? Come up to the front and dance!" So Ohno danced and Johnny said to him, "you've got good rhythm."
42.   So since then, he started going to the lesson 1 day a week. There were about 50 people starting out, but later on, it was reduced to only 4 of them. One of them was Machida Shingo (from another Johnny's unit, Musical Academy). With Machida, Ohno danced as hard as he could. Since then, he was always together with Machida.
43.   Ohno's first gig as a junior was at Tokio's concert in Budokan. He heard the "Johnny's cheer" and freaked out. It was so loud, he couldn't believe it was coming from people! He even wanted to go home because he was so freaked out.
44.   Initially, he wasn't interested in being in the entertainment industry at all, or doing dramas. But dancing kept him interested. It was the only thing he wanted to excel in.
45.   He realized that if he wanted to go to Kyoto, he'd have to stay there at least 1/2 year. He volunteered to go. He wanted to escape the situation he was in at the time. Younger, newer juniors were coming in to Johnny's and he kept getting pushed back, as the newer ones got popular. He thought to himself, "Why? I'm better than them!" He had heard that he could be the main star if he went to Kyoto, so he didn't hesitate to go. 
46.   His mom was happy and supportive of his decision to go to Kyoto. He quit high school after just three days of starting. He walked out with Machida. His parents didn't say anything. They just asked him, "Is this it?" and he said, "Yes." He had to quit school because if he hadn't, he couldn't go to Kyoto. 
47.   Life in Kyoto was hard. He had to perform 5 times a day on stage. At least during summer, it was okay because there were people. But in fall, there were only about 50 people in a theatre that could hold 1,000 people. He wondered why he had to be doing this. He sometimes cried because he wanted to go back to Tokyo, but his colleagues helped him out because they were all on the same boat.
48.   If there was an opportunity to dance solo, he volunteered even if it meant taking himself away from Tokyo and going to Kyoto. I think from this, we can see that Ohno is actually quite ambitious and wants to do justice to his own skills. He said he was satisfied with the way danced at the solo of "Kyo to Kyo" - he doesn't think he can dance as well now as he did back then during his solo "Cool."
49.   About 2 years into his life in Kyoto, he thought about quitting. He wanted to start drawing again. He picked up some skills from the makeup artist and thought to himself that when he goes back to Tokyo, he will quit Johnny's Jimusho and start anew, something related to art. At this point, he had already danced to his satisfaction.
50.   Ohno told Johnny's that he wanted to quit. But for some reason, he ended up being in "MASK" (stageplay starring Domoto Koichi from Kinki Kids, from January '99 to February '99), and also "Playzone" (summer play Shonentai - way way senpai group from Johnny's - does every summer).
51.   Then from there, it was straight to becoming Arashi. He really hesitated, but since it was his last chance, he decided to just ride this wave. After the initial debut press conference in Hawaii, he participated in the Junior Concert in October ('99).
From there, as they were introducing themselves, it went like this:
"Sakurai Sho- " *WAHHHHHHH* (all the people screaming)
"Matsumoto Jun - " *WAHHHHHHH*
"Ohno Satoshi - " *... whhhhattt? Who is this person?*
52.   Ohno wanted to get off the stage ASAP. He realized that his time spent in Kyoto had made him less exposed compared to the other members. He became quite desperate at this point. Since the other 4 members had so much more exposure thanks to their TV appearances, he knew he had to try harder. He wrote back to his fan letters and such. He knew that Arashi was somewhat getting popular because their debut song, "A.Ra.Shi," was #1, but he didn't know if he *himself* was popular.
53.   He started having negative thoughts at this point, because people didn't know who he was, or they were saying "How come it's not Tackey *Takizawa Hideaki from Tackey & Tsubasa* that's in Arashi?" He started wondering if it would be okay for him to be part of Arashi.
54.   But it brought comfort to be with Arashi members from the beginning. When the 5 of them were together, it really upped the atmosphere.
55.   When the first Arashi concert came, he wondered if anyone would be holding his uchiwa (*the hand-held fan with member's face on it that fans hold at concerts). He was relieved and happy to find that there were just as many uchiwa for him as there were for other members.
56.   Ohno prefers stageplays to dramas/movies. That is probably why we see him in so few TV dramas. :( Overall, I get the impression that acting makes Ohno really nervous. But he's so good anyway!
57.   He liked shooting the movie "PIKA*NCHI" with rest of the Arashi members, since it was the first time all 5 of them got to be in one thing since "V no Arashi."
58.   Unlike acting (which makes him nervous), he likes doing concerts. He's always thinking about the next concert. Starting in 2004, he could even come up with his own choreography. He thinks about what songs to do solos for, what outfit to wear, etc., and likes thinking about those.
59.   But even now, he has that nagging feeling somewhere that he might not have any fans (stemming from his lack of popularity in the beginning of his Arashi days). So habitually, he looks for his uchiwa whenever he goes on stage. When he finds them, it relieves him and he feels good.
60.   In the past few years, fans have been holding boards with their "requests" on them - like "Wave your hand" and things like that. It was fun, and he liked doing it because his fans liked it. But then the requests got more... intense and now they've become something like "Blow a kiss" and such. Ohno's really shy and he says it's "out of his character." And the next request is "Take it off." - - ;;
61.   When they start going on concert tours, Ohno always checks the internet because he is interested in the fans' reactions, since fan letters take time to get to him.
62.   He watches all his concert videos. Sometimes it maddens him because he sucks so bad, but because his time spent with Arashi is precious, even bad performances are something to be treasured.
63.   Arashi members started opening up to each other while they were doing "Here We Go" concert tour (I think around 2002?). They stayed up all night talking to each other about their plans, what they think, how they would move on individually, etc. Ohno felt that everyone treasured the group Arashi.
64.   Year 2003 brought on some changes. Arashi started hanging outside work and Ohno felt like they had transcended some sort of a barrier. He thinks it's important to hang out outside work, because they are different people when they are working together. Since they are all adults, they can go drinking and stuff too.
65.   He thinks his voice got higher as the years went by. He feels it's strange, since people's voice tends to get lower as they get older. Now he thinks it's as high as Nino's (which, he says, is REALLY high).
