Pop group 9nine has announced that their new song, �gChikutaku��2NITE�g, was picked up to be the theme song for Aragaki Yui�fs upcoming drama, �gRanma 1/2�g!
After a photo session with Aragaki, member Satake Uki commented, �gI love Gakky-san, so the fact that I got to meet her and touch her today was this year�fs greatest memory.�h Murata Hirona felt the same way, as she expressed, �gThis was my second time meeting Gakky-san. I was happy that she let me rest my hand on her shoulder.�h
Yoshii Kanae gushed, �gTo be able to appear together with Gakky-san like this is like a dream!�g, while Kawashima Umika stated, �gAll of us are fans of Gakky-san and Ranma, so we are looking forward to the drama. We are also excited to have our song play in the drama!�h
Finally, Nishiwaki Sayaka commented, �gI�fm not from the generation where �eRanma 1/2�� aired in real-time, but I�fve seen the re-runs. I�fm already very thankful that we�fll be providing the theme song, but I�fm even more honored that it�fs Gakky-san�fs drama!�h
The actress herself expressed, �gI love the voices of 9nine so I�fm happy. The theme song, �eChikutaku��2NITE�f, has youthful lyrics. �eRanma 1/2�� is also a story about students, so I think the drama will shine even more!�h

Luckily we do quality posts on these threads instead of the lets-do-anything-to-get-my-post-count-up posts(?).
Few more shots from yesterday's promo with Ohno, she's looking cold but the temp isn't that bad though.
