UNITS
- M.A.D.
- MADE
- TheyBudou (2008 November 11 - 2012 May)
RANDOM INFO
- Used to be a spoiled character and taken care by everyone of MADE.
- Was a serious character in TheyBudou and took care of everyone.
- Wanted to have an image of bad boy.
- Performed “Do Me Crazy” at Crea concert in 2010.
- Target until March 2011: To be able to dive in Amazon and be friend with piranha.
- Original anniversary: On May 2007, during a ball tournament when he was in my 1st year of high school, he met with five good friends of his, which he feels like he can hang out with them forever.
- Takahashi and Akiyama were seen looking at each other as they walked toward one another and suddenly started to hold hands and walk together. (Arashi 5x10 - 2009)
- Takahashi and Yamashita were seen smiling at each other. (Arashi 5x10 - 2009)
- Takahashi informed Tomioka his correct direction/ position. (Arashi 5x10 - 2009 )
- KinKi Kids took MA and TheyBudou to eat sushi the night before the last day of J concerts and Takahashi ate 35 plates of sushi (2 pieces each plate).
- Murakami and Yokoyama (Kanjani8) called him “Prince Onion” (Tamanegi ouji) because of his hairstyle.
- Cut Yamamoto’s talk to promote MADE in 08/09 Jr. calendar in a video of JFC, when TheyBudou were back dancing for Tsubasa’s D&R.
- Matsuzaki and Tatsumi described Takahashi’s father as scary. (No details)
- He said he has turned into “bullied” character since T&T 07/08 tour. Fujigaya loves to ask people to do muchaburi (unreasonable shows?), and was very strict with him and would ask him to do impossible things (Compared to other boys). There was one time where Fujigaya asked him to express his feelings on that day in a free style dance, when they were in a bus. Takahashi was like “It’s in the bus you know!?”. He did but when he failed at it, everyone pretended to sleep and ignored him.
- Regard above point, Yamashita praised Takahashi he is good at muchaburi and is a performer.
- He said he was so happy that Nishikido was so nice to him and once helped him wipe his sweat using Nishikido’s towel. Nishikido even called him Ryu kun.
- He was quite a panic guy. When something unexpected happened, he’d be panic, while Nikaido and Tomioka would look so calm. But he said Tomioka was so nice to him and always calmed him down when such things happened and he felt so grateful to Tomioka.
- Takahashi called Tomioka as “Kento” and Yamashita as “Takumi”.
- He said he is a type of person who would do it once he decides on something but he talked to Nishiori san after Kakumei 2012 and the senior made him rethinks of a lot of things.
Note: Personal opinion, just my random guess, I think what he meant about “rethink” was… resigned. Did I say before, the rumour about he wanted to leave was overflown after Kakumei, but everyone was glad that he was still in Kabuki.
- Loves wearing striking colours.
- He used to think “It’s fine as long as I’m happy~” when he was in junior high school but as he entered high school and saw a lot kinds of people, he began to adore the “ride on the wave” way of living. He said sometimes he might not be able to ride on the wave smoothly and might drown in the sea but at least, the wave would still pushes or supports him. He doesn’t like to live in a protected or too secured environment.
- Always took care of Eda. He even lent Eda his contact lenses several times.
- Good at cooking.
- Learned ballad since 1st year primary school. He told his parents he wanted to dance, so they told him “Start from the basis!” and sent him to ballad class. It took him 8 years to level up to his favourite style of dance, hip hop.
- He said his family is so funky so he wouldn’t be scolded if he played hip hop songs loudly in his room and started to dance.
- He said there’s an evil living in his heart during summer that he’d go fooling around until he didn’t even know what he did.
- Eda described him as a mood maker and his present enough to change the atmosphere. He is a “bully” and “bullied” character.
- Hayashi said Takahashi’s feelings weren’t expressed on his face, and he felt ease talking to Takahashi.
- He could wake up easily in the morning and always woke Hayashi up as they always got the same room.
- On his 19th birthday, when he had finished taking shower, everyone came and wished him “Happy birthday~”.
- His friends gave him a sparkling watch for his 19th birthday.
- Went to watch Yamashita Tomohisa’s solo (2009) with Eda, Hayashi and Kawamura Ryo.
- Wanted to be a flexible talent like SMAP.
- Akiyama and him are called "Tiger and Dragon" symmetry.
Note: Ryu means "Dragon" in English and Tiger is pronounced as "Taigaa" in Japanese

RANDOM INFO
- Has a younger sister.
- Afraid of darkness. Tomioka once switched off the electricity when Yamashita was taking shower, making him screaming so loud, which Tomioka described the scream as a scream that you wouldn’t think coming from a human.
- Called Takahashi as “Ryu”.
- MADE members called him Takumi.
- Tomioka referred him as “Our Takumi” when talking about him.
- He said Masuda Takahisa woke up at 5 a.m. to practise his solo part and if it was him, he would lose to sleepiness. So, he adored Masuda and wanted to work harder, not to lose to his senior.
- Nikaido Takashi pulled a prank on him a lot; kanchou him when he was talking or suddenly pinched his nipples.
- Winter makes him excited. If snows fall, it’d make him thinking of snowball fight and when he was in primary school, he once went to a nearby river with his friends and entered into the river up until his knees level, and said it was so cold to the extent his legs hurt so much and when he came home, he was scolded by his parents.
- He often went to skiing with his family when he was kid, and said he likes skiing more than snowboarding because snowboarding seems to be difficult.
- Wanted a bicycle for his X’mas present, so Kato Shigeaki and Tegoshi Yuya promised him to buy one, because he said his admired senior is Kato kun.
- NEWS members called him “Notty Junior” because his face looks like Kusano Hironori (They called Kusano “Notty”).
- Takizawa Hideaki said he looks like Ikuta Toma.
- Fans said he looks like Noda Yuya sometimes.
- Type of school event he liked was the one that need students to spend their night in school, and on the contrary he didn’t like music festival because he felt shy to sing in front of people, but his teacher always told him “You’re Johnny’s, you definitely can do it!” which was oppositely giving him more pressure.
- Something he bragged about his school was that there were a lot of exchanged students came, so he could learn a lot of languages.
- Basically he’d spend his break with chatting in the corridor with friends.
- He’d be happy if his school staffs didn’t serve salad with wakame seaweed.
- He went to Kyoto and Osaka for 3 days 2 nights school trip and bought a lot of souvenirs, but he had distributed them all to the neighbours and only green tea dango left for his family to eat. His sister asked him to buy her a Doraemon souvenir but there were a lot of Doraemon key holders so he bought them all for her since he didn’t know which one his sister already had, and finished all his money there without buying anything for him, but then his sister told him “You should just bought one!”.
- He wanted to try sky diving even though he scared of height.
- Wanted to try studying for the whole day and would start it with the subject he was good at; Japanese language.
- He is a very shy person that it took him so long to confess his feelings. He doesn’t like to play with his mobile phone, so he doesn’t really call or send message and he hopes the girl he likes would understand him and wouldn’t ask “Why don’t you reply my message? Do you hate me?”
- If he has a girlfriend, he wanna take her to anywhere she wants and when the sun is about to set, he’d take her to beach and the two of them would sit on the sandy beach and watch the sun sets and he’d kiss her on cheek and say with a small voice, “I love you,”.
- Wanted to learn boxing.
- Learned judo during 6th year primary school for one year but his senior threw him hard and he couldn’t stand the pain and quitted.
- He can’t like someone who he doesn’t know much, so it’s impossible for him to date someone introduced by friends or to fall in love at first sight.
- He didn’t talk much to girls at school.
- He can drink 500ml drinking water at a very fast speed; even can finish it at one gulp in 10 seconds if he is thirsty.
- His family would rewatch videos he appeared in for more than 10 times making him embarrassed.
- He used to return together with Inoo Kei.
- Hometown in Kagoshima.
- Poor at playing trump, so always be the loser when M.A.D. play trump card.
- His first stage was KAT-TUN’s Yokohama arena concert, during Haruka na Yakusoku.
- He admired Aiba because Aiba greeted him during rehearsal.
- His parents sent his resume to the agency, but he wasn’t really excited about it.
- Has a lot of black clothes.
- Fan observation: He is always seen grinning instead of smiling when dancing, no matter how serious the song is and when he is dancing on the lateral side of MADE line, he would be almost always so far apart from the MADE member next to him.
