Japanese TV program "Solomon Ryu"

Japanese TV program "Solomon Ryu" was on air on March 30, 2008. This program was the documentary of Shizuka Arakawa and the behind "Stars On Ice". Shizuka went out with her very close friend, Daisuke for this program at his favorite restaurant "Takonotetsu"(takoyaki restaurant). They were looks so fine and it was a nice program!
But they looks like an old sister and a brother!?(Sorry, Daisuke)

What is the Takoyaki?

Thanks Leode! Do you mean they were dating dating (as in they were a couple)?!?!?! I'll be shocked if you did because Dai has always said he would never date another skater (although there was a rumor after the cursed Grand Prix Final, when Dai got sick, that he was dating Miki Ando).

I made a joke about Dai being into older women when I saw that pic of him with Yukari Nakano. If he was actually dating Shizuka then I guess I was more on than I thought.

Looking at everything, I do think you meant that they went out as friends though. The whole thing would sound a little sensational!

Thank you for the information about this, Leode! The pictures are so nice. I can't wait to watch this footage (even if I don't understand it).

And thanks very much for the link about Takoyaki, Leode! I might perhaps try it out sometime (if I ever go to Japan that is).

Heheheheh. But Shizuka is a very lovely and nice lady though.

I actually thought of your quote, swandie, when I was reading this.

Hi Leode!! Thanks sooo much for the pictures and links. Do you often get to know about these TV programs before they screen (like from the TV guide or something?) If you do, I was wondering if you would be able to post an advance warning on the site, so people in Japan can record it. Thanks again for your wonderful work on this site, it makes me really happy to be able to spend (virtual) time with fellow Daisuke fans!

Hi, DTFF members!

Sorry, pls don't misunderstand this program, swandie. it's just TV program. They went out as just friends and did it for TV program. Don't worry about it!! It's different from the realistic TV program in U.S.

The first one is Daisuke's choreographed the ending pose at Shizuka's program "Candyman". Do you remember this at "Stars on Ice"?

No, if I knew it, I could do it. During my business trip, I can't stick around here, so it has to be time rug if I know it. Fortunately, every DTFF members can post news about Daisuke and other skaters at this forum. It would be very helpful a lot, thanks!

Once I really thought about it, I figured that they were just hanging out. The title of the thread just shocked and confused me! If it was really the way I was originally thinking, I'm sure the media would've been all over it! Something like that would be like Christmas for them.

Hey, swandie, I changed the title of the thread, pls don't get them wrong. I know you are huge Daisuke's fan.

Very funny, Leode! I hope I'm not the only one who got confused by the original thread title.....

I guess it's video from this programm. Isn't it?

(yusei0316 is really big Dai-chan's fan )

Thank you for letting us know the link, Salamandra! Yes, it is.

Hey swandie! I hope this will clear the misunderstanding. Hahaha. They are good friends, I bet.

Thank you Salamandra!

It's really amusing!
I love when Daisuke choreographed Shizuka's program (3,10) and his face at 9,08...

No, I'm definitely sure that you were not the only one, swandie. Even I was a little unsure of the meaning at first.

Thanks very much for the video link, Salamandra!! Now we can all determine for ourselves if this is really a "date" like miyu suggested.

And yeah, yusei0306 is definitely a really great fan of Daisuke (I just love all her videos and she posts them up so fast too).
