YOKOYAMA YUU PIMP POST
Back with another pimp post <3
Today is May1 so let’s start with Yoko who will soon be 35 on the 9th.
No. but seriously he is my 2ndso I’m starting on him after Tada.
Yokoyama You (横山裕) (K8’s mastermind, the kid, the attention seeker and the snow white)

He’s evil, he’s grace… he’s everything… NO! Now, I don’t know where have you seen this guy, is it Hidarime where he plays the EVILbig brother, Yukan Club where he plays theSMARTSeishirou or worse/best The Quiz Show where he was the VENGEFULproducer Honma Toshio?
Please I beg you, don’t be misled by his evil smirks and smarts remarks. See this? Don’t!
Because Yoko in real life is no way cool or scary- he's a baby that needs to be complmented and he always forgot his stuffs and cellphones and he loves the natto that goes "crunch" and hate it when his manager brings the natoo that goes "squinch"
So yeah, Yoko is K8’s oldest member and yet despite being the oldest, the most childish one, the impossible one- the one getting red when he’s angry, the funniest and the most adorable attention seeker. I now think that Ohkura is actually kind of mature because the older ones especially this guy here is just simply immature so he was forced to be the mature one.
Despite being good friends with Arashi's Aiba and Nino,
Yoko is also the one always waging war (LOL)to Arashi, whenever they raided (guested) on Arashi’s show.
Trust Yoko to always go:
“If we win this match, let’s make this show Vs. Kanjani.”
“We’d like to make this show Himitsu no Kanjani-chan!”
“Worst case we’ll make Nino-san to Yoko-san”
Yoko is always always losing his things, like wallets, cellphone and driver license and other important things. It came to the point where his YOUNGER brother had to put his number and name on his things.He’s also distrusting to other people, not the evil “I don’t trust people anymore!” but the cute way like, “You guys are not Kanjani so I won’t trust you.”
Or the one in Kanpani: “He won’t betray us!” -Murakami Shingo
“No. he will. All adults do.” (such a distrusting kid)
He also likes to be complimented, during one of their lives when Hina was promoting his talk show regarding married women, this guy suddenly goes: “You haven’t complimented me lately right?”
So of course Hina goes, “What?”
But this baby still goes: “No I just thought that you haven’t complimented me lately.” And the other members are like, “Go compliment him already!”, "You're making him sad!"
He is their percussionist, he’s really good at playing various instruments though, like trumpets or chimes or bongos. He wants to play the Sax originally but the staff was all like “Nishikido-san might play it so play the percussion instead!” so he was left with the percussion.
He’s really good at it though <3 <3
Yoko also plays Basketball, he was able to study in middle school and high school due to his Basketball scholarship <3
Despite not finishing any degree, Yoko was very very smart- not English smart though, but street type smart. He is the inventor of Kanjani’s Eito Ranger and he once organize an entire prank for Hina XD
Because at that time, Hina wanted to do a CM and Yoko wants Hina to experience making a CM or something, I was saying Sorry to Hina the entire time I am watching it because Yoko is just plain evil at that ;; and I feel so bad for Hina. But still as funny as hell hahahahaha
I remember when it was brought up that Ohkura is having a lot of modeling work, Yoko says that he actually wants to model as well making the other members laughs at him and there was this time in Chronicle where he says his line “I’m gonna slam dunk your heart” but immediately goes away because he is getting shy XD (Me: Noooo… where are you going? Aren’t you gonna slam dunk my heart?!)
Ah. Yes, I forgot to mention that Yoko is actually shy. He says cool things then he get embarrassed by them and he’s cute when he gets angry- like he’s shouting at the top of his lungs and getting all red.
He also play games seriously and in one Honmadekka episodes, they were playing musical chairs and Yoko was so dead set on winning that even Sanma-san goes, “Just let Yokoyama wins already.”
He was also named as the shallowest man on Honmaddeka and the biggest “Hindrance” on Kanjani. And the regulars on that shows says that when Yoko goes home he will probably cry a lot but Kanjani was - “You’re not going to cry right? You’re stronger than this right?”
And Yoko says, “I’m not as strong as you guys think.”
Wait. I am sooo getting carried away so I’ll finish it here. Here is a picture of Yoko’s crossdressing alter ego, Yokoko <3 <3
