KANJANI 8

OMG, same here. When I watched Summer Snow, I knew of Kinki Kids and all, bu back then I didn't care about JE or even didn't think too high of it, so I never cared about the member. And when I watched Summer Snow, I thought "Hm, couldn't they have found a cuter actor?!" ^^;;;;
The only difference was, I started to like Tsuyoshi pretty soon, like after two or three episodes.
It was some month later when I saw Kinki Kids on TV and it hit me XDDDD

I'm amused right now, that there's someone who made the same experience. ;)

haha...that's pretty amusing!thanks to kinki kids and TOKIO (haha..)...i know johnny jr because of them!

actually, i wasn't really into kanjani8, kattun and news back then, but because of their senpai, which i know nagase tomoya first (from TOKIO) when i watched mukodono two years back,i began to know about johnny..then recently i watched countdown on 2002, i noticed this johnny's jr groups! :mrgreen:

now i start liking them! :dancing:

:naughty: the same goes to me as well...... i fell in love with Takuya Kimura in his drama in 1998. then went on exploring other johnny group like V6, Kinki Kids, Arashi, and now NEWS and Kanjani 8.... i think we just can't stop... it's like once you are hook you are hook forever...

Akakage thanks for the caps of Uchi in that drama!Forgot whats the title!hehehe...

Did Uchi played an important role in this drama?Like he appeared in every episode!Coz i heard he only appeared in some of the episodes.Coz i really want to watch this!

Ahhhhh Uchi so cute!I've seen a vid of this the part where he is already a sensei!He looks hot as a teacher! :smitten:

he wasn't playing as a 16 years old there when he became sensei..btw though he was 16 years old back then. :beaten:

@pinkgloss..hehee..no problem. I'm the topic starter I should've paid attention to this thread and posts some pics of them.. :beaten:

Damn..I've missed ur question on that one.. :beaten:

Yes, he appeared a lot in Boku no Ikiru Michi. He was, after all playing, the brightest student in the class who happened to give a hard time on Nakamura Sensei (Tsuyoshi). Uchi's character was somewhat uptight, sullen and hardly socializing in that drama..all he thought of was studying and getting to the best Uni.

I really recommend that drama because it's really touching.

same goes to me tho...actually, the first japanese actor that i knew is takuya kimura back in 2000 in beatiful life...but i didn't know that he is also in johnny's group.i think starting last year i knew that the whole johnnys things when my twin was really obsessed with tomoya nagase from TOKIO...duh, we are a bit late here... :sweat:

aka, thanks for the pics u've posted here.hope there will be more pics soon!

i've even tried once...i still remembered when i watched summer snow (domoto tsuyoshi plays in it) i was like.."hey, how come this person (tsuyoshi) can even become an actor?i can't watch that drama because of him! :sweat: .then a few weeks later i found out that tsuyoshi is one of johnny members..what surprised me more is that he is very famous with his partner in kinki kids, koichi!then i tried to listen to their songs and they are pretty nice and imloving it now! :dancing: then, a few weeks back, i tried to watch summer snow again and i think that that dorama is very nice! now i realized that i have to "like" the actors/actress before i love the story... :puppydog:

but i think i should give a try for the drama with that kusanagi and uchi..all because of uchi :naughty:

am not being pro tsuyoshi or anything (coz i like koichi more than tsuyo), but maybe u dislike his role in summersnow at first coz of his character in the drama in the first few epi, coz i think he potrays his character fairly well ( not only in this drama).

i thot i posted already...*sigh*..JDoranma is so slow today...driving me crazy!!! :nut: :banghead:

i dont know about tsuyo other movies coz i only watched him in summersnow...so, i dont really know his talent in acting...but i read somewhere that his acting skill is better than koichan...hey, i'm a little bit out of topic here, cut it off now...gomen! :bonk:

Yeah, Jdorama has been going so slow today..it's really hard for me to open up this site.

Anyway, to cut off your topic...lol. :hehe: .I'd put Ryo Nishikido pic instead..hehehehe..I hope it will bring up another discussion about K8..

hahah...that really helps!!anyway, i know that kattun has made to newyork and soon they will fly to LA...how about kanjani8 then?have they been to west countries like kattun?

Hmm...I don't think so.
So far I only read they went to some part in Osaka..lol..hahaha..that's their own hometown. :beaten:

I think they've never been abroad like others..or maybe they have. I've no idea about this. If they haven't..poor them. It's a discrimination..

I just got the feeling that Kanjani 8 hasn't been paid too much attention unlike the others..so unfair. :beaten:

Yes my exams are over! Finally :hehe:

I don't have much knowledge about K8's members except for 4. :beaten: I feel that K8 has a different taste of music compared to their counterparts in JE. And that taste is nice, imo. :victory:
