ah.. Thanks for all the info.. there's another group known as Eito.. hmmm.. so many groups just for one person.. a bit strange and really confusing.. like which group he's going back to.. seems that most are rooting for Kanjani8
Eito = Kanjani8
Of course we're rooting for eito...that's where he grows up, where he found the real meaning of hardship and working to be where they are now. _________________

uchi is in k8 and news? just like ryo?
gomen na...asking too many questions...
baka desu...lol
Yeah. Both Uchi & Ryo are in both groups. Again:
Kanjani8 - officially formed in December 2002
NEWS - first formed to support volleyball in Nov/Dec 2003
Here's something about NEWS' story and how Uchi and Ryo got to be in both groups:
actually you have it backwards, Uchi and Ryo started out in Kansai and as Kanjani 8 (Uchi was actually in V West first) - But anyway, they started as Kanjani 8 and were a well established group, with their own songs and own TV show (no they were not debuted, but heck - Kattun weren't debuted for years and they were still a "group" - Kanjani was the same way)
They were put into News, simply because at the time News was meant to be a temporary group. They were put together to cheer on the Volleyball much like the recent KityGYM. They debuted only because their volleyball song was made into a CD...so it was a "debut". By the way, one thing a lot of people don't know is that in the beginning Ryo was not a full member of News - he was only there when they played volleyball games in the West (Kansai area) and South and the other member of News (Takahiro Moriuchi) - was there when they played the East/North areas.
It was only after Moriuchi dropped out - and NewS really became too popular all of a sudden that it was decided they would not be "temporary" but an actual full on group, that Ryo was made a full time member (Uchi was always a full time member).
But that is how they ended up in two groups...they are originally K8 and "on loan" to NewS - which happened to debut before K8 simply because of the release of the volleyball song and sudden popularity of national attention.
