Takuya's type is the dopamine type. He was asked which brain type he think the other SMAP members are, he said that he might be the only stimulus type in the group. Other two are stable type and other two are cooperative type. The professor told him that people with different brain types work better together as they complement each other.
Hayashi asked him "Which one's which?" Takuya asked him back "Oh? I have to say the names?" then he didn't reveal it. I'm guessing Nakai-Shingo are stable type and Goro-Tsuyoshi are cooperative type, but I could be totally wrong. One thing for sure, I can't help to think that Mori-kun is definitely the stimulus type just like Takuya XD So yeah... 6-man Smap had really amazing balance, back then.
There were some other brain tests fun to follow. Like, memory test and concentration test. There were 3 problems for concentration test, the professor said it's normal if people can't answer all three. If someone can answer just one, then he has quite outstanding ability to concentrate already. Guess what? Takuya answered all three. What else is new? lol. The professor said someone who can answer all three is a genius.
Conclusion came from Hayashi-sensei about Takuya, "So your brain is ikemen (handsome) too. I lost to you in terms of both looks and brain now," LOL. That's our Kimura Takuya for you! ^v^
