Everyone and their mother will do it...
...but I have just GOT to say,
HAPPY BIRTHDAY NINO.
That is all...
Did mine on Nino's birthday and a day earlier where I am (it's the 16th here still), but oh well... I'm sure everyone's friends pages are filled with Nino-love as is. What is one more? ^_^
Anyway~ because partially I'm lazy, but mostly because these say it better than I can re-say it, I've looked for these two "Nino" rants I've done without realizing it in the past. I would post more, but I think I'll spare everyone of the overflow of fangirl. Here they are:
Ninomiya Kazunari is, hands down, not only my favorite Arashi member but my favorite actor (even above Johnny Depp who I deeply admire for his ability of not playing any character twice). I don't find him the most attractive in Arashi, but I think his aura is very charismatic. He draws a quiet sort of attention to himself when he's not talking which is so different from Jun, and Nino's wide array of talent, sadistic yet playful character, and quick-wit captures many of his fanbase. Nino also has this sense of mystery and secrecy about him that is very intriguing. Unlike Jun who shows a lot of his emotion, I feel that Nino does too but only the side of himself he chooses his audience to see.

...my interpretation of Nino's mind has always been "secretive." Like, he will only allow you to know as much as he's willing to let you see. He's so very mysterious, and he has so many sides of him that are complete but we, as fans, will probably never see. There's Arashi!Nino-- the calculative, sadistic, talented brat. There's True!Nino, which is what we get from what the other members tell us... the "mood maker," the touchy, mischievous guy who works hard but makes it seem effortless... and yet, it still feels as if Nino only shows a certain side to him to his Arashi pals that they've all grown accustomed to and love. And then, there's Personal!Nino. The Nino we will never get to know, but you know is there because we get glimpses of it with his responses like the one you pointed out:
But then I just realized. What he said made sense. For love, it doesn't matter if you make mistakes as long as you know how to correct them. BUT it is hard to accept someone who cheats on you. So maybe it really depends on the person affected. What Nino said is also true. Normally, when someone cheats, it is because of the other person as well. There could have been something wrong between them, making the other to cheat on him/her. Both are at fault. Uwaa. *sigh* This is just so sad. Lol XD
If it was up to Arashi!Nino or True!Nino, I get the impression those sides of him would definitely just say "screw it, I'm going to play magic and games. Girls are too complicated." But this is a point that is strictly personal. And with that said, I think Nino's ability to keep his work and personal life separate is the best amongst the members (even above Jun's tight-lip about his family).
Nino's just so very complicated, and there's so many layers to this guy... and we'll only ever have the opportunity to speculate, because Nino's just that good at being... well, the Nino we want to see.

So, uh, he's definitely not my favorite. That's for sure. *shifty glance*
I'm celebrating Nino's birthday month via signature on Love So Sweet forums as well. Here's the list of GIFs I've posted in my signature so far (I keep them up for a duration of about 2-3 days before I change it), and I'll keep updating until the month is over. Here we go~
