After waiting until a day after the release date to get it, I got busy and, blasphemous as it is, only got around to watching the Kimi Attraction videos and makings today. My conclusion: JUMP makings were actually more interesting when they were all reckless brats who were probably driving the staff insane. Of course… that's not actually 100% how

since i am still fairly new to jump fandom, who exactly is heir 2nd tier? yamada, chinen, and daiki usually almost always have the most lines and screen time, but everyone else under i'm not to sure.
i need to go watch the old makings to see just how much of a handful all the kiddos used to be. :)

yeah i remember takaki started off with gokusen 3, and yuto was center during ultra music power days. it's really funny to me cuz werent yabu and hikaru like the popular juniors when before they debuted? and awww inoo had like 0 lines. maybe thats why he concentrated on graduating to make sure he had a backup plan. keito was another interesting one to me too. i know his dad is a sempai, and i want to like him, but hes just so quiet and he hardly sings, that i feel like his presence doenst really bring much? except for in the jump band, and his occasional compositions, but even then, its yabu, yamada, and hikaru.
and yes, their management. well, if aiba can get away with his scandal back in '04, and ohno's most recent scandal, i think the jump boys are safe.

Yeah, things have definitely shifted around over the past 8 years. Yuto was officially the center for Ultra Music Power, but Yamada and Takaki were the centers for Dreams Come True (they wrote about it in their Myojo 10,000 character interviews, so it's official), and Yamada has been the center since. Actually, Inoo talks about why he went to college in his Myojo 10,000 character interview, too. He went to college for himself, not because he ever considered being anything besides an idol. It makes me sad that people get the impression that he felt he wasn't going to be an idol, because he says straight-out in his interview, "First and foremost, I was always an idol." (I wrote a little about it here, though the topic was something a little different.) As for Keito, since he had literally no idol training before he debuted (like, none. He was a junior for a few months, that's it, because he was living in England up until debut), ( ... )
