How could you think that he was a gay when you first saw it yanie :shamefulcry:

I didn't. I already loved Shingo when Bunga captured these pics for me. A KATTUN fan who thought of that and said it to me. Read my post carefully =P


Welcome, Zephyr!!!^^ Kimura has the MOST number of fans indeed. But I have the feeling if he's out from the group, Kimura-ichibans wont stop being SMAP fans, thus SMAP wont lose its popularity at all, not to mention 'drastically' xD I'm sure Kimura-ichibans will become both Kimura Takuya fans AND Smap fans.

When you know the WHOLE SMAP as a group and individually, you'll automatically become a fan of the other four, even if you have a favorite member.

I practically collect ALL FIVE MEMBERS' solo stuffs! Well...I collect most of Shingo solo stuff. But I watch and collect the other members' solo shows too...

Tsuyoshi said when he became Best Jeanist for the 5th time, "I'm very lucky to be a SMAP member, coz people who vote for me are not only my fans, but also Nakai-kun fans, Kimura-kun fans, Goro-chan fans and Shingo fans voted for me too,". Haha....he knows SMAP fans very well^^

But... Frankly, I dislike that question even if its hypothetical, coz Kimura-kun himself never thought of going solo.

I hope you have fun here, Zephyr!!!^0^

Yes, he did,, coz in SMAP, he can do whatever thingz he wantz... :rofl:

The total sales for <<Arigatou>> is 295,373 till last week.. Yea, itz near to 300k... :woot:

hehe i knew the question would be annoying. i thought of this question when i was watching my smap concert dvds and i realised that the uchiwas (handheld fans?) that most of the audience were holding were pretty much...... similar. or when you look at certain forums, some smap members threads have more page views than the general smap thread itself. gosh i know this makes uncomfortable reading for true smap fans :( :( i apologise sincerely in advance.

maybe it's because i'm not that big a smap fan... i like all of them but wouldn't fangirl for all! i guess this is a place for hardcore smap fans so most would tend to disagree with me!

however, in comparison to other JE bands, smap definitely has the most uniformed popularity amongst members. some JE bands are really sad... like when it comes to playing games on variety shows only the more popular members play and the less popular ones just sit at the back and watch.

LOL! You're right, what am I saying... He's ALWAYS going solo! But going with SMAP too, at the same time =P

So those reporters' questions were quite weird then, "Have you ever thought of going solo?". He should've answered that with, "I already am!".

Hehe...sorry, Zephyr... I meant Kimura-kun never thought of leaving the group, himself^^ But as for solo, he has LOTS and LOTS of solo works already anyway.

Ne, Carlet... I think u should come here alwayz... Then you'll love SMAP and the other members more day by day.. Just like the few of us here... We are addicted to SMAP and this forum... :hehe:

Today the HK news report that Goro-chan and Miho will get married this year... LOL.. Another rumour again.. But at least, this is a good one... :applaud:

Kakkoii desu ne~~~ :muack:

Yes, you are right. Kimura-kun has the MOST fans. Dont be sorry at all, Zephyr! All you said are very true^^

Yes, there are hardcore Smappies here who had been a fan since 5-10 years ago. But there are also others who are like you, newbies!^^ And you ARE VERY, VERY welcome here!! We're so happy if there are more newbie Smappies joining us!^0^

haha....I was just being honest that I don't like that question, but that DOESN'T MEAN you're not allowed to post something like that next time. You're VERY allowed to do that. I think criticsms about SMAP(as long as its not bashing) are very welcomed here^^

A difference of opinion is common desho? Don't feel sorry just because we disagree with you...haha!

Please post more about your opinions! I'm keen to know opinions from those who are not hardcore Smappies, coz being one, sometimes makes me blind and deaf at the same time...lol!! So, its nice to hear others' opinions who can be more objective about them...heehee....

Another one::

yap.. i noticed that too..
but i dont think it applies to SMAP.. every member of smap participate equally in everything they do :)

I alwayz keep thinking.. if I go Japan one day and I meet one of the SMAP members,,, what will I do??? I totally cant imagine that.. :hehe:

Tokyo is small??? :crazy: I heard b4 that we can meet most of the superstars near Shibuya... :woot:

wow.. i want to go shibuya!!!!! so cool! i cant imagine myself meeting any superstars there! :hehe:

zephyrscarlet wrote:hello everyone! :D i'm relatively new in the online smap scene but i do watch their shows/concerts and stuff. anyway just wanna add on to the discussion here..

which member do you think is absolutely indispensable to SMAP? in other words, if this particular member drops out, the group would lose its popularitly drastically?

being a kimura fan, i would have to say it's kimura. :mrgreen: somehow i think that while smapxsmap will still be able to function without him, smap concerts would flop with his absence. anyway a lot of people got into smap because of him. smap can't reeeaaalllly sing (oh please don't kill me!) and they are not terribly kakkoii so kimura's dorama fans definitely forms a big percentage of initial smap fans. not that i think kimura sings well though...

nakai is just as important. it would be so different without him but i think he has to thank kimura for launching his career in the earlier days. however i don't really like the notion of him being a bad singer and yet being in a band, though i know smap is more of an ENTERTAINMENT group than a singing one. personal opinion :nut:

although goro does seem to be the least favourite member of smap, i like goro's voice alot!!!!!! :good: there was one smapxsmap ending song with ken hirai and i absolutely loved goro in it!! he's definitely the best singer in smap. other than that, i think he is adorable on smapxsmap (he is very self-depracating) but i guess not his real life persona.

tsuyoshi. somehow i am not drawn to him as much as i am to the other members. i think he lacks an x-factor but i have to say his soft-spoken and gentle nature does grow on you. his presence does have a rather calming effect and i love the pairing of him and shingo. there was a utaban episode where they sang a karaoke duet and that was when it hit me how cute they are/look together! his acting is superb! :thumbsup: although, as i have said, it still does not draw me into liking him tremendously.

shingo's facial expressions are GENIUS :nut: but why is it that his acting is not that good? (personal opinion!) i love the oishii moments in bistro smap! i like shingo's singing, think it's pretty good although he thinks it's just average. also, i think his idol-worship of kimura is endearing! :P other than that, the absence of shingo would make smap seem older! haha

thank you for your honest opinion =)
we wont kill you!!!!! i must thank you for ur frank opinions :)
im personally a huge huge fan of takuya too! i came to know about SMAP
because of my Takuya :mrgreen:
thanks for joining us in our thread!! :victory:
anyways.. introduce yourself?? like where you're from etc..

ongrina82 wrote:Can I ask something?? Is Goro a very flirt guy? I think I read about this somewhere in my local magazine before...but is it true??

Haha, some people say that Goro flirts too much but I think he just understands women really well. He's very in touch with his feminine side and can make friends with girls very easily. Gets along great with women but not so much with men. It's kind of unusual in Japanese society so I think people make too big a deal about it.

It's pretty funny how close Takuya is to Goro considering how different their personalities are. I think Takuya has a very typical Japanese male personality...kind of like Nakai, except maybe not as traditional (?) /conservative (?).

Heh, too tired to type right now....so anyway short answer: In my opinion no.

elaine.. the meaning of flirt is.. erm.. like a male hanging out alot alot with women.. behave indecently.. cant provide ya with the exact meaning =X
u get my explanation..?

huh.. exactly when is takuya's drama gonna be shown in japan??? im excited to see the response!

Haha, I'll be fine. I know it's not true. Didn't Miho say she wanted to get married when she's 35? Still a few years to go.

I saw her on Tunnels food battle a little while ago. She's seems like a very cute, friendly, nice girl. I like her because she has a very unusual look for a Japanese actress. I still think she's a little too girly for Goro, though :hehe:
