thanks a lot! =D
i don't really know much about the news members, and i am quite curious to know whether tegoshi has any siblings...does anyone knows?and what courses does he takes in university?

i think he took english or something, though i honestly think massu's accent is much better

Tegoshi is the only child in his family.. and i think his mum used to like dolling him up like a girl or something..

Evidence:

He's currently studying at Waseda University (supposedly one of the top 5 universities in Japan) and majoring in Human Informatics. I THINK he's taking english too..

Hmm.. to me Tegoshi's accent sounds more like the english over here in Singapore and Massu's accent is 90% incomprehendable to me :)

lol.. I used to think that the cover is really low budget but after hearing "Miso soup" and watching the PV, i changed my view. The cover does give one the "kiddy, innocent" feeling which i think is quite an effective portrayal of the feeling one's expected to get listening to miso soup.

And come to think of it, good choice of singers too. I can't imagine someone like kame singing this lol.

Going from cheap to kiddy is somehow a long way...

Kame is multi-talented, or he should be, since he's the star of Modern Day Geisha :bleh:

Oh, I love this Ryo pic!! I always find him charming when he is concentrating on something w/ a serious look. Like last time when he was shooting arrows in one of the variety show.....He looked very very very cool while aiming at the target. Too bad he's not in Yamapi's Byakkotai....I think he'd be very suitable in those ancient-time drama. He looks good in kimono.

yea!tegoshi should come here! but it has been sooooo long since a jap artist had come to singapore....so sad

From Jan2007 magazine. It's the first time since suspension that the NewS members (well.......w/o Ryo) appear on the same page on a magazine. Can I treat it as the preview of NewS return?

hahaa, if i'm not wrong, Ryo taught tegoshi how to play the guitar :)

Well.. seems like most of JE knows how to play the guitar, the whole of kanjani8 knows..

Gosh.. which magazine is that from??

Hey i think it's a hint alright!! They wouldn't put those guys together for nothing. WAIT a minute, i THINK i spy ryo next to massu under the no. 1 section. Did i see it wrongly or what? :puppydog:

you have a clearer version of this scan? :mrgreen:

*prays that they come back in january*

Sorry for being pessimistic, but why isn't there a hint at all from kusa and uchi :shamefulcry: uchi's rumored to appear in some photoshoot in january, but i don't think i have seen anything of him yet. Kusa's like practically no news at all too.. :puppydog:

how come most of them knows how to play guitar?is it a must? yea, i realized most of them knows how to play guitar too....weird...

oh....it might be a hint...but i am not getting my hopes high though i really want them to come back soon....wanna see more of them....but i don't wish to get disappointed....

does tegoshi wears spectacles?

Hmm.. i don't think it's a must to be able to play the guitar but of course, it would be an added bonus like during one of kanjani8's concerts i remember there was this performance where ALL the members performed with guitars. It was quite cool.

Sighh yepp.. I hate this.. all rumours and hints dropping all over the place but no concrete proof. Especially Uchi, they have been hinting his return through magazines, jweb entries since don't know how many months ago and yet.. :puppydog:

But then, half of the time in a K8 concert, instruments are involved heavily especially the Kanjimi3, but I'm pretty sure that Yoko doesn't know how to play one. :woot: Of course, there's a difference between being able to play a guitar or be a really good guitar player, like Yassu who's practically a Guitar God in the group, and then Subaru & Ryo are pretty good guitar players too. Maru picks up the guitar well though he's more a bass player now...

About Uchi...hmm, I don't know what to expect. Maru mentioned in his jweb the other day that K8 have already shot the Kanjani8 2007/2008 calendar, WITHOUT Uchi...So, I really don't know... :crazy:

Oh yahh.. come to think of it yoko's always singing/doing hilarious moves when the rest are playing their instruments. k8's good with instruments eh? Something which NEWS isn't good with (they can do nice acapella though^^ hints yume hints)

Hmm.. 2007/2008 calendar without uchi?! That's bad.. I hope it doesn't mean uchi won't be back till 2008's over. That's too long a suspension already. But based on how things are looking now, it does seem that it's quite high a possibility that Uchi won't return to JE anymore.

I don't think they will be stupid enough to print a calendar without uchi if they know he's going to return and they will have to reprint again. But well.. maybe they ARE stupid. :bonk:

Yeah, singing and playing instruments is a must in eito's concerts :) Remember that they have many units within the band, and Kanjimi3 & SubaruBAND totally play cool music in concerts.

Yeah, feel bad about Uchi not being in the calendar, if that's true. It's already up for pre-order now and is selling like hot cakes...I wish I have the budget to get it!
