KANJANI 8

Hi Hi...... I'm usually at the KAT-TUN thread... But I really thought today I'd have some fun.. and just blab about my three favorite Kanjani 8s.....

First off.......

Maruyama Ryuhei........
hmmmmmmmm where to start.... Ah yes... the silly boy smile he has.... I think the first time I was ever introduced to K8, Maruyama intrigued me....*lol... He had that smile, that schoolboy cuteness smile to himself.. A talented bass player.... And well like Jin, my favorite actor... He can act really baka.. But I'm sure deep inside he's intellent... Just don't like to show it off eh...haha.. No worries.. I love his bakaness....

When I watched the Sukiyanen performance on Music Station.. i couldn't help but laugh at how he was being picked on whenever it was time for him to speak... ~Jikan gire~...haha.. than he had that devestated look.... That... WHAT??? You won't let me speak? hahahaha.......

Actually I'll have to admit it took me awhile to know who Maruyama was...haha.. The first time I saw him was in this Jr High School episode in which Nakamaru had to profess his love to Maruyama.. And their setting was on the surface of the moon... haha

Than another episode of Jr High School from this June... Maru had to play the Okan.....haha.. I couldn't stop laughing at his character.....

I think it was from then, that my love for Maruyama grew more and more


Next guy....
Yasuda Shota

Ah yes... It's his smile... (I know I know.. I have a thing for guy's smile.... Those are the first thing that catches my attention)

Anyways.. My first time seeing him was in Jr High School's Mr Romantic Segment when Yassan was paired up with Koki... wahaha.. What a pair..... That little skit was so cute... and then when Koki "professed" his love... and they were (i guess you can call it) hugging.... he had this shy smile...kyaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

Than I was introduced to their singing... Well I got more into him singing and performing was because my friend kept sending me files with Yassan...She was trying to pursuade me to like Yassan...*lol.. And I guess it worked.... BOY did I think he was hot....haha

A talented guitar player.... And although we don't see him act as much... I think he's probably a talented actor.....haha....

and Last but not least.... Dummer boy Okura Tadayoshi

lol... actually the poor boy was kinda ignored by me...haha.. I mean i rarely noticed him cause he was always in the back while the others were in the front.. But than while reading pictures I started to find him really cute... yeah yeah I know you guys get the HE IS HOT thing often.. but really I can't help it....haha I'll have to say I find guys who play drums very amazing...haha It's so kakkoi...~~~~~

Than I saw him in Sukiyanen Performance...haha... that silly silly boy... when he smiled after introducing himself...*lol.....

gomen... still trying to get to know Okura kun....haha

Anyways.. I'll have to say.. I missed the Yamada team... But now with a new addition... I'm sure Tayamada(is that what those three are called???) will be very very funny...

One last thing.. I WANT TO SEE YASSAN AND OKURA as FAIRIES... It has got to be a really cute performance....haha.. The tall one and the short one...hehe (not meant to make fun of Yassan..k~~~)

I guess I have not ramble long in K8 shame on me and I am the topic starter here? :beaten:

Whom do I want to ramble? Well maybe K8 first.

I am a bit sad how JE treat K8 not as good as the others or is it just my feeling. It seemed to me that K8 is not being given enough spotlight like for example Kat-tun (ok..I love Kat-tun too so I don't want to bash you guys here.:hug:).

I was so glad that all their singles always manage to go straight to Oricon Chart be it topping at No.1 or just somewhere along the Top. 10. Recently even Sukiyanen went straight to No. 1 kicking Ayumi's ass for a while.

Right now about the members. Although I love them all but of course I do have my own favorite members right. I cannot help this and I don't deny this either.

Just like Miyuki, my favorite of K8 would be Yu, Maruyama and Hina.

Yokoyama Yu
This guy is absolutely funny and he is blessed with good looks too. I know he really looks like Kohji Yamamoto and I always thought that they were separated at birth or something. I noticed him a long time before Kanjani8 was formed he was in Kansai Jr. In my opinion this guy will just look good even if he's talking jibberish nonsense in Kansai Ben. I always find it so cute when he does that. Don't know why but heck yes..he is.

After that I watched him in Dream Boy with KT and the rest of K8 members (minus Uchi and Ryo of course)...woah..very impressive. He's acting on stage as one of the bad dudes there was so convincing. I even hated him that means he had succeeded to convince me at least, that he's a bad ass dude, not too mention that he was so gorgeous on stage.

I am still wondering though if Yu is actually the unofficial leader of K8? I hope he is the leader even though that Hina usually just talk more and doing more MC.


Speaking of Hina..(ok he got bad teeth) still he's cute and for some odd reason he does look like Kimura takuya. He caught my attention in Neverland Drama. My first impression was..GOD, can you stop talking and you're so loud! But then again I slowly to like the character and him. Hina in my opinion is a natural born MC. He can just talk so smoothly and putting some funny puns here and there making a chain reaction of string of silliness to all the members. That is what makes him so special, right, right I have to admit that he got a buff arms...hahahahaha...


Maruyama? I think Miyuki has rambled long enough about him. Gah, I guess i have to share Maruyama with Miyuki? :hehe: You forgot to add Maruyama's famous quote from SC that is : I LOVE YOU MORE TO YOU!! hahahah..yes Maruyama..say that to me now. I know it's gramatically wrong but I'd love to hear that from you personally..I think I might get a spasm..LMAO.. :rofl:

Yes, Miyuki, I'd love to see K8 Midsummer nights dream version...see Yassan and ohkura as fairies..hahahah :beaten:

Was that the stage show they played? I think I saw some clips of it and I thought it was really cute and interesting. I hope they have a DVD release of it or something so we the 'unlucky' fans could have the same experience as the 'lucky' ones who have watched it :hehe:

Hmm...I'm not sure if I have told who I like in K8. Anyway, I guess I just say that I like Maru, Yassan and Ohkura.

Heehee... My favourites in K8...

I guess, the top 3 would be Ohkura, Ryo & Subaru...

I just love Ohkura's drumming skills.. He looks really good with the drums.. And when he's with the drums, he becomes very serious.. But when he's not with the drums, he's cheerful, genki and he looks smart.. I find him like the serious type kind of guy.. And he's height is one of the qualities that I really like about him.. I find him really cute especially when he's with Yassu.. He looks like a caring brother when he;s with Yassu.. Kawaii ne..
Besides, Ohkura's voice are really great too...

Then, Ryo... I just like this guy.. His attitude, his looks.. even his dancing which I dont think it's that great.. In his junior days, I find him as a great dancer, but nowadays, his dancing are not as good as before. But sometimes, like the ones at All Of Me For You performance..it suits with his speed... (does this make any sense?? :sweat: ) I wouldnt say Ryo have a really really great voice, but I find he's voice quite special.. It's sort of unique. And now, Ryo's attitude! Hehe.. I'd say him as a very honest guy. He speaks what he thinks. I don't see him faking at stuff.. Plus, he may be mean sometimes..but he's really sweet, right?

Now, Subaru.. The guy who made me hook towards Kanjani8.. His voice is really special. This is a really unique voice. Very high pitched.. Nobody can sing like him...Well, so far, I can't find one yet. He may be short...but he's really handsome.

Wow long posts..well nice to see some love here...

I'm a very loving person when it comes to k8....I really feel happy and relaxed talking about them. I think it's cause they are a bundle of ennergy and suprises and very unique group. When I heard the news that they got #1 on the oricon and beat Hamasaki Ayumi....it was a biggg suprise. Sukiyanen is one of my favorite songs and was very happy that it made it to the ranking. But I was upset how ayumi fans bashed these guys..they seriously need a chance.

Well in general, i think k8 is one of the groups..that are unbalanced but when they are always unbalanced, they help each other of their unbalanceness. Like yoko and Hina are the talkers...and Ryo is like the popular star of k8. it's pretty unbalanced...I guess...Ryo gets everything so..yah...

I loove Ryo...even I call him a retard and inslut that little boy. I admit..he has this charisma that we get attracted to...he can act too but..geeze...sooo much sp[ot light and a solo con!!!! I want Yassan or Maru more of a chance than Ryo, Yoko, or Hina taking it away from them.

My favorite member is actually dear Yassan....reason is:

-He's soo pretty
-His smile is soooooo lovely
-His face is really a good face..meaning...a face that shows he tried hard to do what he is doing now...his face is really getting better.
-He has a such of a talent for guitar, dance(omg when he does these two things, he's sooo hot!) and singing...his voice is just..sooo beautiful. Soothing...I really love it...he needs more solo..subaru needs to share his solo parts.
-Bouncing of energy...I loove his auora and energy.
-He is a talented song writer. He wrote songs for mikan, pudding, ONE, and some others...they are really great musical pieces of work.
-He had good choices in girls most likely. His interview answers were one of the most normal answers. He's my type lolllll
-He's like short but actually he has one of the nicest builds in JE..I was suprised.
-He's a good tsukkomi!!!

I loove maru too...well miyuki..kinda explained how but my certain reasons are:
-He is one of the good looking members
-he comes up with crazy dances
-He can play bass and sing songs a little higher vocal range...
-He's funny and his smile is soo irristable
He's a funny guy!!! I looove how he is and like becomes the clown..even he may be underappriciation..something makes him shine out...

I think the underratted is the best in this group cause they like support the group as a whole...I wouldn't know what to do if anyone of the nderratted guys got removed..they are all important to k8.

I love very much his rages when he is called to do something rare in honjanis :hehe: :hehe: or when he lose in ping pong :rofl: :rofl:
I love his face when he's sleeping :rofl: his jockes and trivialities
I love too when he saids somethings rares of Ryo :hehe: and when he slaps people :rofl:
I love his voice :flyingkiss: :inlove: and his dance, his eyes, his lips and his boddy so much >.<
I love when he said: "EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE???????????????????????" very hard in interviews or programs :love2:
I love when he eat mandarins one behind another one :rofl:
I love all of He!!!!!!!!! :smitten: :kiss: :kiss: :love_eyes:
And I miss “à very much!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :puppydog: :puppydog:

Thanks a lot for this! :)

I don't see any Urujani or Honjani being uploaded onto jpopsuki nowadays. Is it because the show has stopped broadcasting? Anyway, can I request for Heavenly Psycho? The one I have can only be played on the computer...weird. :headscratch: haha :beaten:

I think Urajani & Honjani had finished airing.. Now, their latest shows is SUKA-J... But I dont see them in JPOPSUKI either.. I hope somebody can provide them there.. I prefer downloading things from torrent..

Like watari said...it's something like G No Arashi....

But I've watched it... I dont really find it that way.. Well..Maybe becoz I dont understand.. But I read some reviews and I find the main target of the show kind of low.. From what I heard, it's something like Joe Millionaire.. There's this guy...they helped him.. they say he's from a rich family and sorts... Then, there's this beautiful girls.. and this girls are kind of suppose to get him laid or something..

It's like they're using women as an object or something...

Minna, correct me if i'm wrong k... :sweat:

Aww Im watching SUKA-J right now! Did anyone else notice Ryo's kawaii giggle? Sooo kawaii! >_< You know when the girl sat next to Ryo I think it was 4.44 or something... Gosh Ryo, please dont do this to me :nut: Now Im totally in love with him... soo adorable >_<

Yeah!! I saw that part... Ryo's expression was like.....as if he's in heaven or something.. He seems to be enjoying it... And he took some "great" shots with that camera he hold... (understand what I mean..? :naughty: )

he's soo adorable there.. too bad his parts are not a lot..
