Junno Afterthoughts

[mystical_powers]

So it's been a few days and while I'm still mad, I think I have a more coherent train of thought now.
But I have several opinions in my head that clash with each other, so lets get through them.

1. JE is at fault.
Now the rumours of Junno leaving because of marriage (and possible pregnancy) are the biggest rumour going around at the minute. Yet, we

I agree. Junno and KAT-TUN are the victims here. It's not an industry secret within the company, and among us fans that Julie's been wanting to disband KT from the very beginning only Johnny-san stood in the way.

Ok the pregnancy rumor is new to me. When did that one pop up? I heard the marriage one already. My friend agreed with me on that all Junno's thing is just Jin 2.0, without the selfishness quality that Jin possesses. Junno is like one of the least selfish people that I've come across. Yes there are many Johnny's that are married and have kids, yet with KT it's like a taboo of sorts. Even Nagase can date more openly than they can.

I believe that as long as Kame, Maru and Ueda have the passion and the drive, KT will continue to survive and thrive.

hehehe I had a love/hate relationship with Jin. Which has evolved into indifference by now. I still love Koki XD.

But didn't Johnny declare his niece as the next owner of JE after he retires? I know she hugely supports KAT-TUN even though Julie is in charge of them -_- which is unfortunate. So hopefully Julie won't get her wish.

It popped up pretty much the same time the marriage one did.
Jin 2.0? I don't wanna think of that. I like to think he's not that selfish or arrogant, especially seen as he's never come across that way. If it turns out his personality is a complete 180 then that's gunna seriously shake up KT support and confuse the hell outta fans...
I dunno... people got it out for KT it seems... which is like "the fans have proven time and time again that you can't break KT, so why you keep trying?!" xD

I have complete confidence they can do it as a three ^_^

Koki <3 I seriously want tickets to his 4th Jan Tokyo live, but his tickets are more expensive than KAT-TUN tickets most of them time!!

Johnny never openly declared his niece was taking over, or I never heard other wise after certain things happened. I know at one time it was between her and Julie. Everyone was saying that they didn't want Julie taking over bc it would affect KT. I think as long as KT has a say in what happens to them, a disbandment is less likely to occur

"Much like Kame did two years ago during their New Year con." Wait what? I was there two years ago... how did he push back?

"Remember his CM contracts started dropping after that." I was honestly thinking a few months ago "Kame's stopped doing Aoki and Panasonic CMs... why?!" and I guess this answers it!

Least you got a mention! xD

[mrs_koki]

I don't remember at which point they done their MC, but Kame said he had enough and that they were not going to just continue on as if Koki or his influence and role in the group in never existed. They had to do that with Jin's departure and he hated it then. He wasn't going to do it Koki, and they showed footage of when they were 5nin. I think they showed 6nin footage too. It was quite a rant cause Maru told him that " That was enough. You need to stop now". Many fans there reported on it.

If Kame hadn't done what I told you he did, would those CM contracts been continued? Most likely. Panasonic for sure. Aoki could mostly go either way, you can believe the Aoki company's reason or you could look more closely into JE's motives since JE handles all their CM contracts.

Hehehe yep! That mention got retweeted and favored for like 3-4 days. I started to wonder if it would ever stop. lol XD

Honestly, I didn't know if you were still in Koki's corner or not. You don't ever mention him hardly. I'm glad you are ^_^ <3

[mystical_powers]

O really? I was at both concerts for the countdown in 2014... I remember him bravely mentioning Koki and the situation which did shock me at the time that he'd openly talk about, so it makes sense.
'they showed footage of when they were 5nin. I think they showed 6nin footage too.' That I don't remember... unless you're talking about when they did the melody-mix of all their old songs then yes, that's when they showed old footage.
My Japanese mustn't have been good at the time then...

'Honestly, I didn't know if you were still in Koki's corner or not. You don't ever mention him hardly.' Yeah I'm a lot more behind on Koki's stuff bu I follow his twitter, I follow INKT's twitter, blog AND youtube page and have follow all 4 of those platforms ever since they began! But I never see many interviews or magazine articles about them. Maybe I'm missing them all out of bad luck? But yes, Koki is still very close to my heart and I tweet at him and read his stuff every day xD So don't worry!

[mrs_koki]

It was brave but I think for him, them and the fans he did so regardless. I think when Jin left the second time I don't think Kame really liked Jin very much. Where as when Koki was fired, Kame still adored Koki and done his best to protect him from, well, himself really. Yeah, they showed the during the medley but I think originally it wasn't supposed to include Koki or Jin. But there wasn't time to digitally erase them from the 6nin and 5nin footage. I heard that KAT-TUN also told them they wanted to show the footage as it was, with their ex members bc Koki and Jin were such an important part of the group's success.

There's no rock no life journal that posts Koki's tweets and interview snippets then she translates them when she has time. Let me know if you want the link for the journal. I wish I knew more than a select words in Japanese, it'd make following them and KT so much easier. At least GACKT and HYDE tweet in english periodically. Can I follow you on twitter?

[mystical_powers]

I see...that makes sense...

Yes can I have the link please!
My twitter is @sambart93

[mrs_koki]

Yeah.
