Kanjani8's Ryuhei Maruyama now has a mom who's younger than him... Takahiro Maruyama remarries
Kanjani8 Ryuhei Maruyama's (30) father Takahiro Maruyama (49) got married to a 24-year-old non-celebrity with a cute 2-year-old son, leading to Ryuhei suddenly having a mother 6 years younger than him and a stepbrother that's young enough to be his son.
Ryuhei's father was previously crowned "Mr. Kyoto" as he won in a bodybuilding competition in 2012. He used to be an aspiring actor and had Ryuhei when he was 20. He divorced the mother soon after and made a living as a Japanese taiko drum craftsman. He's an ikemen who looks like Koshi Inaba of B'z.
The woman is from Kanagawa and has had experience working at the prefectural office. She's a beauty who looks like Perfume's Kashiyuka. The marriage was made public when the wife sent mails to her acquaintances announcing their marriage during the New Year break. How does Ryuhei feel about all this?
"(Ryuhei) Maruyama himself is really happy that his father got remarried, and he now has a new stepmom and a stepbrother. I think that is also why he put in more effort into his Kouhaku performance compared to the previous year." - (TV station representative)
A bodybuilding magazine also discussed the father's decision to come back into the world of bodybuilding and comments: "Now that his son is enjoying a lot of success in his own field, he wanted to show that he too is challenging and aiming for the best as the father and decided to participate in the competition once again".
I don't know who this Maruyama is, but could it be that the woman approached the father first to eventually get to this guy? That's a pretty wise move for a Jani-wota.
>> Most likely, yeah
>> I see, how cunning w
>> So this is how a Jani-ota's mind works, huh
Which means he has a 24-y/o mother there when he comes back home.
I'm so jealous.
>> It's not like these idols still live in their family homes back in Kansai
I don't get the part saying she's a beauty who looks like Kashiyuka
She went all the way from Kanagawa to Kyoto in order seduce the father... Jani-wotas sure are scary.
> The new mother is a 24-y/o non-celebrity with a cute 2-y/o son.
You can easily imagine what kind of woman she is.
24 with a 2-y/o kid, and previously worked at the prefectural office?
So this means that she gave birth while she was still in college while passing the exam in the process.
Then she immediately quits her job and gets married to a man who's old enough to be her father.
It's like she's totally rushing through her life.
It's extraordinary how the term "younger stepmom" sounds so much like an AV flick
Maruyama's dad is a bodybuilder who looks like Inaba of B'z so I can imagine that he's popular with the ladies...
But Maruyama must also have mixed feelings about marrying a woman who's even younger than his own son.
So this Maruyama guy's 30? Johnny's surprisingly has a lot of talents who are pretty old already, huh.
>> Arashi
Everyone's in their 30s
Maruyama's dad (49)
As expected of a bodybuilder, his body fat percentage must be really low.
>> Wow, he looks so youthful w
It's also pretty amazing that you already have a 30-y/o son at 49
He's actually quite well-known in Kyoto.
He's a goddamn ikemen who even gets to be on TV as a taiko drum craftsman.
Click to view>> But he's more of an ikemen than his son.
I wonder if the son will also look this cool and dandy once he reaches this age.
IIRC, he was the first guy to teach Okura to play the taiko.
>> Ohhh, that's amazing.
Okura's really good at the game Taiko no Tatsujin.
She worked at a prefectural office, but that doesn't necessarily mean she was a regular employee
Is there a possibility that this woman is actually (Ryuhei) Maruyama's girlfriend and this is his kid, but they just used the father as a front since the agency can't allow him to get married?
>> He's not that huge of a member to be protected like that.
Even a majority of the public doesn't know what he looks like.
It's someone else's business so all we say are "Damn, is this AV or an ero-manga?" w
But it'll be pretty tough if this happened to your own dad.
This guy
As a taiko craftsman
At the bodybuilding competition
>> He seriously looks like Inaba-san w
>> Even now, daddy's more of an ikemen
The age of the woman really makes one think that she's actually gunning for the son
