You know, now that I step back for a moment, your reasoning for not liking NewS as much as KAT-TUN makes absolute sense to me. :) "Touch" I love because it's pure pop, but as I was saying to someone after NewS' last performance on Music Station, KAT-TUN is a much better batch of singers on the whole in comparison to NewS. Musically, they are a more mature sound than any of their contemporaries (Kanjani8/NewS); I remember being quite startled by that when first listened to "Best of KAT-TUN" and nearly turned off! *laughs* But, I think, from here on out, NewS is only going to grow (now that they can without interruptions for the most part) and their music will hopefully grow with them. :)
We begin with Kai and his hunt for a post-college job, which he is already stressing over, even though he still has a year of school to finish.
I forgot to address this in my first post, but normally, Japanese university students start searching for their jobs after college in their third-year of college - shushouku katsudou (literally, "activities to look for work" *grin*). It's a BIG deal and normally starts in earnest around the end of their junior year (November/December-ish). A lot of my friends, by the time the beginning of their senior year rolled around in April, had already had jobs set up for them to start the following April. It really is a make-it-or-break-it time for a lot of students.
