Close Jr.: Akiyama Taiga “Gaming buddy. We don’t actually meet that much, but we’re always connected online (lol)”
Jr. you think of as your rival: All Jr. other than me
First stage: “Music Station” “In the week after I entered, the first time was when I was allowed to appear in the Jr. medley. If it’s a concert, it’s the KinKi Kids concert that took place in the New Year’s season at the end of that year at Tokyo Dome”
Memorable Johnny’s song: “Boku no senaka ni wa hane ga aru” (KinKi Kids) “I was moved when I was waiting on the side of the stage for our turn to appear, by the fantastic scene of the KinKi pair singing this song a cappella amidst the sparkling lighting.”

Special skill: Can sleep anywhere
Charm point: Eye bags
My boom [current obsession]: Watching dramas “My favourite drama is ‘Proposal Daisakusen’!”
Siblings: Younger brother (4 years younger)
Pets: 7 cats, 2 dogs “About 10 years ago, because we were entrusted with a cat from my little brother’s friend, we started keeping another cat, a child was born between those two, and it gradually went on increasing (lol)”
Strong point: Friendly
Weak point: My pace “Since I’m from Kansai, I walk quickly, and I’m bad at waiting”
Sporting experience and sports you’re good at: Badminton “I played for 3 years in middle school as my club activity”
Favourite phrase: Don’t give up
Treasure: Family “As I’ve gotten older, I’ve come to think of them as precious”

Specialty at karaoke: “Ai deshita” (Kanjani ∞)
Reason for joining Jr.: My mother’s younger sister sent my resume
Thing that made you most happy since entering Jr.: Getting to do our own concert
I won’t lose to anyone in this thing alone!: Love for cats, number of pets “Though I say that, I actually have a cat allergy (lol)”
When was your first love?: During preschool “Because I liked my teacher, I couldn’t help having fun every day at preschool”
Admired date plan: Go to a fireworks display wearing yukata “I want to do stuff like goldfish scooping together!”
Type of girl you like: Someone who can make me omurice with fluffy egg “I can’t make it myself… But I’ve practised and become able to break an egg one-handed (lol)”
Dream for the future: World tour “Since no one in Johnny’s has realised this yet, I want to go around places like America and Europe”
Goal you want to achieve before March 2017: Debut with They Budou, and have a national tour!
Thank you for always supporting me.
I’m going to keep rushing up and up so please keep me in your favour.
Let’s view a gorgeous scenery together in 2016 too
