Variety

Nippon Television

Mayonaka no Arashi

Mayonaka no Arashi (真夜中の嵐, Midnight Arashi) was a Japanese variety show that ran from October 3, 2001, to June 26, 2002, on Nippon Television (NTV). Aired from 12:45 to 1:15 a.m. (JST), it was Arashi's first independent variety show, in which they were the primary hosts.

If there's a mountain, climb; if there's an ocean, dive; if there's a cliff, fly.[fn 1]

— Shinichi Hatori (co-host), Mayonaka no Arashi (Episode 1)

Described as an adventure show, at least one member would solitarily explore different parts of Japan by bicycle until sunrise without any money or a map.[7] He would board the last train of the night and exit the train at any station he pleases.[7] The starting point of the journey across Japan began at Makurazaki Station in the Kagoshima Prefecture (south of Japan) and ended at Cape Sōya in Hokkaidō (north of Japan), where Arashi and their co-host Shinichi Hatori (Zoom in! Super newscaster) buried a time capsule containing items the members received during their adventures and letters to their future selves.[8] Hatori and Arashi opened the time capsule during the group's live tenth anniversary special Odoroki no Arashi! The Century's Biggest Experiments! Impossible Feats Special & Miracle Experiments Live Broadcast! on November 1, 2009.[8]

While in hiatus, Arashi continues giving fans something to keep them in mind, such as the release of the film "ARASHI Anniversary Tour 5×20: Record of Memories", a look at one of the 5x20 concerts, held on December 23, 2019, at Tokyo Dome. With the number "5" holding a special meaning since day one, referring to the unchanging number of members,[22] and the only changing number being the one after, as in 5x20, the release of the information on May 22, 2021 gives a subtle hint to the continuation of the group (5x22), since in 2021 Arashi would celebrate 22 years of career. "ARASHI Anniversary Tour 5×20: Record of Memories" was screened first at the 24th Shanghai International Film Festival (June 11-20, 2021),[23][24] and later in Japan on November 3, 2019, as pre-release, with its official release on November 26, both in normal and Dolby Cinema formats.[25] The film was screened in other Asian countries, like Korea, Singapore, Malaysia, Hong Kong, indonesia and Taiwan.[26][27][28][29][30] It was also screened in the US, including Hawaii, where the group started.[31][32][33][34] On September 15, 2022, the film was released in a 4K/regular Blu-ray disc format set, and as a sole Blu-ray disc.[35][36] The film reached the top spot in the movie genre category of the "Oricon Weekly BD Ranking". It was the first time in Oricon's history that a work achieved the highest first week sales exceeding 300,000 units sold, by selling 363,000 units.[37]
