Johnny's & Associates (or Johnny's) announced the group's debut on [[September 15]], [[1999]] through a press conference aboard a cruise ship off the coast of Honolulu, Hawai{{okina}}i. Arashi, the Japanese word for storm, was chosen by Johnny's to represent the group's thrust of "creating a storm in the entertainment world." Arashi is currently the only debuted group in Johnny's that is written entirely in [[Kanji]]. Their debut single, "[[A・RA・SHI]]", became the theme song for the 8th World Cup of Volleyball hosted by Japan in 1999. They gained widespread exposure when they sang their debut single at the cup's opening on [[November 2]], [[1999]].

On April 2007, the group performed in one of their largest concerts to date: ''Arashi Around Asia in Dome'', which was a continuation of their Triumphant Homecoming concert, aimed to celebrate the successful Asian tour held in January 2007. A huge number of fans balloted for the January concerts so it was decided that they will hold a dome version of the concert.

The theme song of the series, "[[Happiness (Arashi single)|Happiness]]", was sung by the group and also debuted at the top spot of the Japanese single charts. The [[2007|year]] proved successful for the group, with all of their singles at the Top 30 of the annual Oricon charts, with "[[Love so sweet]]" ranking 4th in single sales overall. The group's success in 2007 sparked renewed interest, with two major announcements in February 2008. The first was the announcement that the group will be doing a concert tour of the five major domes in Tokyo, Nagoya, Osaka, Fukuoka, and Sapporo. The tour, titled ''ARASHI Marks 2008 Dream-A-live'', consists of 10 performances, from May 16 in Osaka to July 6 in Sapporo. The only other Johnny's artists who have done a five dome tour are [[SMAP]] and [[KinKi Kids]].<ref name="Tokyograph-Dome">[http://www.tokyograph.com/news/id-2621 Arashi Announces "5 Dome Tour"], Tokyograph.

The show which is entitled ''Himitsu no Arashi-chan'' ("Arashi-chan's secret"), will air 10:00 [[Japan Standard Time|JST]], starting on April 10, and will be produced by Saori Hirata.

The exact same pattern of him unwillingly 'winning' against Sho has been seen repeating many times ever since. He is the oldest person in the group and Ohno sings the lead vocals. Although he has stated that he wanted to avoid becoming the leader the most, Arashi members have once stated in an interview that Ohno is a new-age idol, who leads his group by not leading at all. Aside from leading the vocal work, he is known to be the best dancer and has the greatest control when it comes to singing in Arashi. Back when Arashi first debuted and before he was elected leader, Ohno was told by Johnny's to be the "Dance Leader". He choreographs several of their dance moves, which the other members sometimes find quite hard to follow. Other artistes from the same company openly expressed their admiration for Ohno's dancing; among them are [[Imai Tsubasa]] of the duo [[Tackey & Tsubasa]], Kokubun Taichi of [[TOKIO]], [[Yuuri Chinen]] of the newly-debuted group [[Hey! Say! JUMP]], and other juniors. He is also one half of the Arashi skit duo ''[[Ohmiya SK]]'', partnering Kazunari Ninomiya. Out of all the members, he has appeared in the fewest dramas, preferring to do stage plays or focus on his art. He performed his first solo concert on [[January 29]], [[2006]]. He became the first artist in Johnny's who held an art exhibit, which was entitled, "Freestyle". [[Sho Sakurai]] sings most of the rap parts (known to fans as "''Sakurap''"), the lyrics of which he also writes. Sakurai was the first in the group to perform in a solo concert, ''The Show'', on [[January 14]], [[2006]]. He is currently a Monday co-host of NTV's News Zero, on which he became the first [[Japanese idol|idol]] to host an election special.<ref name="ArashiBio" /><ref>[http://www.tokyograph.com/news/id-1344 Sho Sakurai helps bring politics to youths], Tokyograph. Retrieved on March 1, 2008.</ref> Sakurai is arguably the best-educated member of the group, having graduated from [[Keio University]], the Japanese equivalent of an Ivy League school. During the early years after Arashi's debut, Sho was appointed by the Johnny's to be the "Study Leader". Although he lost in a round of rock-paper-scissors, hence excusing him from being the group's leader, the other four of Arashi have made many remarks that Sakurai is the one who possesses leadership qualities. [[Masaki Aiba]] is the tallest member of the group, with a distinctive breathy voice. He was once hospitalized after fainting due to the [[Pneumothorax|collapse of one of his lungs]] and was forced to stop playing the saxophone due to the operation he had to undergo. Aiba interacts with various wild animals as a co-host of the TV show, ''Tensai! Shimura Doubutsuen''. He also excels in sports, especially basketball. He has been known to have considerably short attention span and often jumps between topics during talks and interviews, thus earning himself his reputation as the endearing, flaky member of Arashi. Sometimes Aiba makes some mistakes with Japanese, particularly in reading ''[[kanji]]''. He can be seen making various reading mistakes in talk shows and live performances. During the earlier years following Arashi's debut, Aiba was appointed the "Image Leader" of Arashi. [[Kazunari Ninomiya]] is the first member of the group to crossover to American films as he starred in [[Clint Eastwood]]'s critically acclaimed Japanese language film, ''[[Letters from Iwo Jima]]''. Along with bandmate Jun Matsumoto, he is one of Japan's leading young actors and have been said to be able to "act with his eyes". Ninomiya stated that he is left-handed but has been forced to write with his right hand by his parents when he was a child. He plays the guitar, piano, composes songs and write lyrics. However, he is usually seen with a game console in hand instead and had publicly admitted that he was an ''[[otaku]]'' when he was an elementary school student. During Arashi's early years, Johnny's appointed Ninomiya as the "Performance Leader". [[Jun Matsumoto]] is the youngest member of Arashi. Matsumoto is known for his starring roles in dramas such as ''[[Bambino]]'', ''[[Hana Yori Dango]]'', ''[[Hana Yori Dango|Hana Yori Dango 2]]'', ''[[Kimi wa Petto]]'', and ''[[Gokusen]]''. He is the first Japanese male to grace the cover of Marie Claire Japan. Ohno has labeled him the "concert master" because of his take-charge attitude and attention to detail during their live performances. During the years after their debut, he was appointed by the Johnny's as the "Comedy Leader". By now he has more or less lost the comedic image and has even gained the nickname DoS from the other members (S standing for 'Sadist' and Do means 'extreme' in Japanese Kanji). Jun is one of the three idols who are considered elites in the Johnny's because he was called to join the company by [[Johnny Kitagawa]] himself, without having to go through auditions. Aside from their music careers, Arashi members have also appeared in movies, special variety programs, commercials, stage plays, and various television dramas. Currently, they are also the hosts of two variety programs, ''Arashi no Shukudai-kun'' and ''Himitsu no Arashi-chan'' as well as a game show, ''VS Arashi''. == Discography == {{main|Arashi discography}} To date, Arashi has released ten albums (which includes eight studio albums and two compilation albums) and twenty-two singles. The group's latest single is "[[One Love (Arashi song)|One Love]]", debuted at number one on the Japanese charts and sold over 100,000 copies on its first day and more than 300,000 on its first week. This is Arashi's 11th straight number one release and their 19th number one overall.<ref name="ThePPN">[http://wiki.theppn.org/ARASHI Arashi] ThePPN Page.
