still_ciircee posted some SUPER AWESOME FICBITS here and mentioned that she only knew Aiba's little brother's name. I randomly have a lot of information about their families, so!
Sho's Family
Sho's father is Sakurai Shuuji(sp?), a politician. His mother we believe is Sakurai Yuko (sp?) (Chiyo and I went on a google-fu spree), a professor of English Lit at a women's college (this was the name of a professor of English Lit at a women's college in Tokyo; I don't remember the name of the school anymore, sorry!) His younger sister is five years younger; her name is Mai, and she's done some print modeling. She works at NHK They look very similar! His younger brother Shu is 13 years younger than him. Apparently the Sakurai family have a tradition of naming their boys to all have the intials S.S. Shu is apparently a big Aiba fan. XD
Ohno's Family
Ohno's mom is awesome. Also they look very similar, apparently. His sister Mina is two years older than him; she had a baby (a girl!) in 2006, but I'm not sure if she's married/moved out. EDIT: She is indeed married! Ohno's father is hardly ever mentioned; he's a standard business man of some sort. XD They are all pretty close from the sounds of it, and Ohno spends a lot of time just hanging out with his parents. They kick his ass at Wii Bowling on semi-regular basis.
Aiba's Family
Aiba's mom is kind of amazing too. Aiba's family owns a Chinese Restaurant, and Aiba's father (Katsuhisa) is the head chef. His mom (Makio) is the head hostess. Aiba's younger brother istwo four years younger, and his name is Yuusuke. He was allegedly demonic as a kid. He's in training to take over the restaurant so Aiba won't have to. Aiba doesn't live at home anymore, but he goes back to visit a lot.
Nino's Family
Nino's parents got divorced before he joined JE, but we're not sure of exact dates. He lives with his mother (who's name is Kazuko; lol with me fandom) and his sister, who is older by 2 years, has moved out (but seems to come home a lot, because again, Nino mentions her ALL THE TIME XD.) They are a really dorky family, and Nino's nikki entries about them usually have an air of OH MY GOD I AM RELATED TO CRAZY PEOPLE. It's pretty fantastic. His father is/was a professor of Japanese cuisine at a culinary school, which is apparently how Nino ended up with Kitchen Skills. EDIT: And according to a recent interview, his mother was his father's head assistant, hence how they met/ended up getting married. He described it as "forbidden love." XD By Nino's own admission, he's not particularly close to anyone on his father's side of the family, father included. His house is attached to a factory owned by his maternal grandfather that makes windshield wiper arms. EDIT: Nino is also the only boy in his generation of the family, which is also kind of hilarious. Anyone who knows The Only Boy In A Family Of Women probably gets what I mean. XD
Jun's Family
Jun is the most tight-lipped about his family out of all of them. He grew up with his mother, father, and sister (2 years older), but that's pretty much all we know. He moved into his own apartment a few years ago, so he and Aiba are the only ones who don't live with their parents.
So, yes. Everything I know about Arashi's families!

Date: 2009-12-30 03:50 pm (UTC)Sakurai-papa's name is Sakurai Shun and Sakurai-mama, Sakurai Yohko. Not sure about the accuracy though.
Shun-san's position is apparently "Counselor, Minister’s Secretariat of Ministry of Public Management, Home Affairs, Posts and Telecommunications". @____@
Shu-kun is 13 years and not 10 years younger than his super idol oniichan, but that has already been mentioned. :3
Mai-san is currently working in NTV if I'm not wrong. Read it from the link above. If nothing has changed that is. XD
And I heard Matsumoto-papa used to work in an egg processing factory.

Date: 2009-12-30 04:46 pm (UTC)Now I know why Sho's so intelligent!!!
no subject
Date: 2009-12-30 05:14 pm (UTC)Ohno mentioned last Christmas in Ontama that his dad is in a really high management position and that's why he doesnt invite the guys over to his house as his dad's guests would be there.
Jun is pretty close to his elder sister of 2 years but I've no idea what she does. But she was the one who influenced him to join JE as she was a huge JE fan (think V6? gawd I cant remember!)
Yup I heard Sho's younger sister is working in NTV. He mentioned that they're closer now because they have chats sometimes after he arrives home late from work. [Hanamaru Cafe] And he's still crazy about his younger brother Shu.
I happened to meet Aiba's mom Makio in Aug. She's a gentle lady full of manners. You can tell where Aiba-chan got his good manners from. He's inherited her great smile too! Unfortunately, Mrs Aiba declined my request for a photograph.
Minna-san, please visit her at their Chiba restaurant if you have a chance!

Date: 2009-12-30 07:27 pm (UTC)I'm not really sure about this, but hasn't Nino mentioned his family being extremely poor when he was younger? I think it was on an episode of Mago Mago Boat Club; he picked up a piece of cardboard or a shoe or something else just as unpleasant...and was like "When I was younger we used to eat these all the time because we were so poor."
Omg this fandom is so stalker-y. xD

Date: 2010-01-09 11:00 pm (UTC)I always find such things very interesting and some of the facts I didn't knew yet.
Immediately putting this to my memories. :D
Aiba-chan's mom
Date: 2010-01-13 09:19 am (UTC)There were so many facts that I didn't know, so it was very useful =)
There have been some questions raised about Aiba's mom's name...Her name is Michiyo.
I know this because I went to her restaurant last week, and she gave my mum a photo of Aiba with her signature on the back. Her name in kanji reads "Michiyo". Literally, her name means something along the lines of "thousand-beauty life". :)
