I’m sorry for worrying you guys I’m sorry to those who were looking forward to the live I’m completely asymptomatic during quarantine so I was itching for this moment I’m back I made everyone worry, and I troubled the members and the staff, so I recovered as quickly as I could
*SixTONES 2nd ALBUM ‘CITY’ Now on sale It has been 3 days since it’s release, have you listened to it? It’s an album that we worked in very closely, so you can enjoy it no matter how many times you listen to it, no matter how many months or years pass. There may be some people who haven’t listened to it yet, but I hope they do because all the songs are equally good.
*「With the Flow」 (Kyomoto Taiga x Tanaka Juri) I wrote the lyrics and Kyomo played the guitar for this song, and just like the lyrics, the PV and the song also have no particular theme. It is a song that says, ‘Let’s just go with the flow casually!’ It has no ups and downs which is why it’s a song that gives off a good mood. I think it’s a song that doesn’t need a timing no matter when or where it’s played.
I think this will be the first time that a song that Kyomo plays note by note will be included in the album. You’ve probably seen him play the guitar a few times, and this time he’s playing it in the MV, so this creative side of him will be shown to the world again. I’m sure everyone wants that!
*Message We’re starting this year 2022 with an album and a tour. We will do our best this year in moderation, just moderately (lol). So I hope everyone will support us in their own way and at their own pace!
It’s been a long time everyone~ Mascara was released a few days ago! Thank you so much for hyping it up! Where did the 200 million copies go、、、that question still remains、、、 Well, there’s no time limit for music! This song will continue to grow and we will do our best to keep it exciting!
And are you watching the drama? Ukiwa, Ukiwa! I play the role of Tamiya-kun, a pure man! But! Some people think he’s not pure right? You don’t understand~ Tamiya-kun, who I play, is in an extramarital affair, but he is genuinely in love with the other party. Pure means doing just that, and not mixing anything up, and anyway, naive and pure are different from each other. Do you understand now? Tamiya-kun’s charm. Please look forward to seeing how Tamiya-kun’s pure love will be from here on!
Mascara is a work that becomes a whole story, everything from the moment it starts playing until the last sound ends. That’s why I don’t want to pick out a part like “I recommend this part”. For example, it’s in the same sense that you can’t just watch a single scene of a movie. I think it is a song that everyone can understand if you listen to it. That’s why I hope you can get your hands on it, and enjoy this work and story.
Of course, the coupling is also very good, and overall, various things were taken into account for the song selection. We are Japanese, that’s why we want to compete in Japanese culture, and that we can do JPOP. ‘Figure’ expresses that.
In addition, there’s ‘Make Up’ with full English lyrics, ‘Lost City’ which incorporates both the good points of JPOP and western music, also included is the Dramatic Rearrange of “Boku ga boku janai mitaida’.
We collected information like our position, and on the contrary, things we haven't touched on, and prepared a selection of songs while thinking of various things. There are so many good songs, and we made it with such powerful people. I think there’s no choice but to listen. Please pick it up and listen to it!
It’s been 2 years today since that debut announcement Even now, I still cannot forget that view and the feeling I want everyone to feel that growth we had for 2 years with the 5th single ‘Mascara’ in three days We poured our feelings into it for everyone who still have unchanging support for us I am very happy to show it to everyone with the power lent to us by a great person called Tsuneta-san This time too, everyone, yoroshiku! We want to show off here again that teamSixTONES is incredible! I could say without a doubt that this is the best we’ve made so far! I would be happy if we could enjoy it together! Yoroshiku! And I would like to once again express my respect and thanks to Tsuneta-san! I’m looking forward to meet up in person someday
Recently, everyone's been telling us they want us to appear on tv as 6 (members), so we're doing our best in SixTONES Because everyone's voice is the best more than anything else! Everyone's voices will continue to be SixTONES driving force and reassuring ally. Thank you as always.
It's Valentine's Day but I can't give you a bouquet or anything now, but I'm grateful to everyone these days, and please forgive us regarding SixTONES' situation.
Thank you everyone. I'm not diligent nor very honest, but I've been thinking about everyone and I love you from the bottom of my heart. From here and onwards, please look after me. by. Juttan
See? I told you, right? I made something yabai that you can only understand by listening so please look forward to January 6
※ i left the word ’yabai’ as I can’t interpret well what he meant here for that word since it has a wide range of meaning... ※ Jan 6 is the release of SixTONES first album, 1ST

※ Aaaah!!! So cute!!! I missed you Sorachaaan~ He's still whipped for Sora I see~ EDIT: Soon after this, we found out that Sora-chan passed away. Family members have a necklace capsule with Sora-chan's ashes on it :(
The other day, I was allowed to talk to someone who I have never stopped liking and respecting!
First of all, I regret that my knowledge couldn't keep up with what I wanted to do at that time.
*I explained and he understood my intentions and circumstances during that time, and on top of that, he even said important and thankful things! I am thankful many many times (over and over). I deeply respected him again when he said he was happy, and my love for HIPHOP went up!
'Let's do a song someday!' 'Let's go for dinner at your convenience!' I was told that!
Now, I feel like I really can achieve what I was thinking at that time!
Let me brag about one last thing
I got complimented with "Juri-kun is talented!"
And, I'm putting here Tanaka before bedtime~ 📸 Blog Photo Decryption Link : Vc7YLvk5br8VVfbHtxfoXxQbsfDOutAznZiy0bM--vk
※ Note that this is around the time that Juri had a minor scandal or rumor with another hiphop artist but was cleared soon as Juri mentioned here and seems they cleared the misunderstanding.
It will be very busy for the end of year and New Year with the various announcements ne~
It's a series of surprises for everyone, right? It's the same for me LOL Let's talk about the lyrics of NEW ERA's coupling song, So Addicted, which I didn't talk much about here~
I didn't intend to say it anywhere at all, but I'll publish it here for the first time. I studied a lot when writing that, but I've always had this hidden backstory, I decided to write it like the succeeding story of love u...'s main character?
Maa, let's not talk too deeply of it! Listen with that intention and try to discover different things~
Hai! So NEW ERA will be released tomorrow ‼‼‼ Today is Furage day? That's what's up ne? Mou, there's no choice but to do it It will probably be the last SixTONES single this year There's a saying that if the end is good all is good, but we're all good so let's all go! Of course numbers isn't everything! I'm not going to play with such statistical music! But if that shows us that we're the strongest, we'll do it.
It got a little hot with the release of the 3rd single 😋 Don't forget the secret word everyone? Rafurabu. Okay? The thing that can't be beaten is how everyone keeps loving SixTONES It is our number one joy when you think "I like SixTONES"~
Maa~ Maa~ let's hype up the 3rd single NEW ERA with teamSixTONES! It's a shame if we don't hype up such great work! Let's make them realize that they haven't noticed yet ~ SixTONES is the best 😉 If you enjoy together and get excited, there might be something good in that~??
Jaa for the last one, I'll give you Jesse When I'm tired, I look at this and I'm healed
Well then, until next time
※ Huhu!!! J2 love!!! That's so cuuute 🙄🙄🙄❤💙 ※ Furage means receiving the goods/products the day before it's official release. ※ It seems Juri is back with the way he writes teamSixTONES. There was I think at least 3 entries where he wrote team and SixTONES separately. 😅

Alriiight, let's talk about my thoughts for the 3rd single on 11/11 which I didn't narrow down until the last minute.
First of all, NEW ERA! This will definitely represent us I think that this song has more depth because we gained various experiences with the 1st and 2nd CD We're putting everything in every song and it's an essential part to tell about us It's our new No.1 song, isn't it? That's the best thing I've ever seen I'm happy to be able to bring our best to everyone by putting it on a song called NEW ERA. That's why, no matter how you look at it This is SixTONES!
And then, the coupling songs! I love music and I listen to it every day when I'm awake and when I'm sleeping, I listen to music so much that I can't do ten of thousands of songs, but I can guarantee the finest and superb music quality. Are you listening to JURI TANAKA? If you don't listen, it's your loss. I was able to stuff fresh things into freshness The rest is how everyone deals with it and savor it The songs are precious songs for us, but I think it will depend on the one who picked it up, so please enjoy it as you like (<-- this whole thing is unclear to me. sorry if this is wrong T^T) And also, I wrote the lyrics you know? Everyone? It's an adult Tanaka isn't it? I was fooling around, but when I wrote the lyrics I wanted to make something really good, I really took the time to make it. I just want it to reach as many people as possible.
I talked a lot, but what I wanna say is, teamSixTONES ‼‼‼ Let's do it. But rafurabu. Don't forget this 😉
Ossu! It's Juri! Long time no see! First of all, let me tell you one thing! I'm sorry for being late! lol But I was doing my best! So forgive me??
First of all, Live DVD & Blu-ray is on sale! I really want everyone to get this. It's our first live film alone. Of course I want to keep making recordings in various genres, but above all, I sincerely hope this reaches as many people as possible. Because, it's a video of that performance that day, isn't it? I won't be able to take pictures for the rest of my life! (<- not sure what he meant by this haha) And above all, it is an indispensable work when talking about SixTONES! Live is the number one thing to watch live! Don't you think so~?? Ours is a bit different though 😈 Well, it's fun after seeing it~ If you're thinking deeply about buying it, take a look at the video on YouTube~ No, it's packed with more than that quality I want you to give it to your friend who's not interested in us! I'm going to drag you into SixTONES world! It will be released on October 14th! Look forward to it! And anticipate it! It is easy to exceed~ (<- not sure about this one..lol)
And our new song "NEW ERA" has been decided as the OP theme of the anime "Hanyou no Yashahime -Sengoku no Otogizoshi-" which will start broadcasting on October 3rd‼‼ It's a pretty cool song! When I received this story, I jumped so much with joy lol Everyone please look forward to it! This one too will be easy to exceed 😉 Stay tuned for October 3rd!
Iyaa~ we're happy to be able to deliver work to everyone so often. Of course, we'll continue to deliver happiness to everyone too? That's why, from here on too, let's continue with our team SixTONES!
Everyone, long time no see~ lol It's really hot right? Are you doing fine? Please be assured that I don't leave the house except for work! Recently, I'm doing my best in a lot of things. We are working hard to make everyone happy~ I want to see you soon
It's been a long time since I updated so I'll specially show you how sexy I am After I took a bath. My hair has grown. Well, that's sexy too.
Hello~It's me~e Is everyone enjoying NAVIGATOR~?After all, it is the best production after our debut work. This is becoming like self praise, but I suppose it's still amazing regardless of us. I would be happy if the person who picked it up is pleased! After releasing the music, I think it already belongs to the people who listens, so please enjoy it in any way you like!
And tonight is MSute! Somehow, it's amazing that when you release a song, you might be called to a music show or something I'm not used to it at all yet lol I don't think I'm gonna get used to it lol
You want something serious ne? I've been working a lot more since my debut, and I'm happy to be on TV a lot! But I think it's always gonna be difficult There are a lot of people involved in one job, whether it's the people who support you or the people who see you for the first time, there is a lot of demand right? But it's hard to respond to everything after all~ Sometimes when I'm alone at home, I don't even know myself lol It's a daily learning~ Tanaka you still have to work hard And, there I tried to spill my true feelings
Tanaka's true feelings and desires ends here today! I don't usually say it~ Somehow, I'm putting Tanaka's true feelings and desires on my blog nowadays lol I'm going to stop because my character is going to be ruined! lol
*Sekuzo and our dressing room are next to each other and I talked with two people who entered in the same period after a long time. Kento praised me saying "The rap is so cool" and I completely fell in love with him. I became a Kenty Girl. I knew I can't beat his brilliance. He's dazzling on both back and front that it's so cool. He was leaning against a wall right? I felt like I'm reading a shoujo manga.
And my partner, Kikuchi-kun. This guy always stick around me. I think he loves me. 10 years ago and until now, he'll say "Eat your meal". So for now, I took a photo It's a present for everyone.|
Then, everyone, till next time~
** Photo with Sexy Zone's Kikuchi Fuma **
* Sekuzo - short for Sexy Zone which Kento (Nakajima) and Kikuchi (Fuma) are members of. They are same age friends who entered Johnny's at the same time.
SekuSuto wins!!! Juri x Fuma bestfriends forever! Can they please go and make a bad ass unit already? haha
The 2nd single will finally be released tomorrow Ah, you can get it today! Did everyone listen to it? Or maybe tomorrow? Either way, we kept you all waiting We can finally deliver it to you! It has the sense of "second first battle". teamSixTONES let's do this!
Well! I'll explain our 2nd single coupling songs this way! *From this point on is only my personal opinion. It does not mean to be official.
First of all, 「You & I」! This song is a love song with a sense of tempo That's why it's a feeling of two people together now and in the future for the next few minutes. I wonder if it's my feelings for one woman right now that I'm singing I feel like I'm singing to the woman next to me
Next, 「love u...」 I think this is from one person because the tempo is slower than You & I Love is something you can't do without a partner, but there are a lot of selfish parts somewhere, right? It has the feeling of singing with focus Think about the woman you love somewhere! By the way, there's a story behind this song, all the parts that i sang from the last chorus tot he end of the song is adlib! When I was recording, I tried to be a fictional woman while listening to a song
I wonder if it's right? It's all a personal opinion! 笑 (lol) Please enjoy in each emotion and situation without being pulled by this! Think of it as a **soliloquy of a man somewhere in Japan 笑 (lol)
I've written a lot, but can I show you the lame part at the end? Everyone, please help us again this time. I'm sorry I'm always spoiled But I don't want you to forget the slogan! *** ラフにラブを It's kinda selfish 笑 (lol) The first thing is that everyone have fun! Yosh! This time, the special word for teamSixTONES is "****第二の初陣 " Let's make this our slogan!
Then, everyone, till next time~ !! !! !!
**No pics**
*Juri used "俺" which reads as "ore" which means me or myself but in a more masculine way. It's the same as boku, but boku is mostly used by younger boys especially kids. Juri have used the greeting "Tanaka Juri desu" before but he's suddenly changing it lol
**soliloquy - means like a monolgue or when a person talks to himself
*** ラフにラブを - means Rough Love. Juri have used it a lot in his recent entries.
****第二の初陣 - reads as "daiji ni uijin" which roughly translates to "one's first battle"
Yaay! I finally had time to read his blog! This is the first time I've read a long entry from him ever since I subscribed to jweb lol It was difficult!!! But it was satisfying! I am unsure on most parts and it would nice if anyone can point out if I made a mistranslation! haha
I loved how he let us know his insights on the coupling songs. i haven't heard it yet because I'm waiting for my copy lol And it made me awww when he asked for our help! we really are one team! <3
Finally, SixTONES 2nd Single [NAVIGATOR] will be released in 3 days! Like the 1st Single, we will run this time too! * As expected, I want to put importance in music! We are pouring everything we have right now into something that everyone paid/will pay for. You will never regret it! This is the first CD that is under SixTONES name only! Somehow, it feels like I debuted twice 笑 (lol) If it happens, I'll keep it in my record and memory Because we're team SixTONES I have nothing to be scared about!
Ah, I didn't update for a long time right? Tanaaaaakaaaa, everyone's like this right? I finally updated... You know, I cut my fingernail too short.. It hurts when I type so I cannot update.. My nails are finally growing ✨ Sorry. I'll stop the joke now 笑 (lol) Oh yeah! That's right! The days of angry waves have calmed down a little! ** Sorry for making you wait 笑 (lol) By the way, can I change the way of greeting on this blog? *** I can type faster now so I can update more often
Maa, I wrote a lot of things on this blog after a long time, I want to tell everyone again! Rough love!
Iyaiya, today's going to be a very busy day~ There are 2 radio jobs and more than that, but it's fun working~
Thanks to everyone, NAVIGATOR reached many people! Thank you It's a rough fun with everyone ne! It's the best when everyone enjoys the work we put a lot of love into!
Today's rajira, , <3
Then, everyone, till next time~
**No pics**
Juri did so well tonight!! Rajira with Kouchi is sooo idol like and the rap corner and impromptu beatbox and Kouchi's rap is cute! The show ended at 9:55PM so he only have around 35 minutes to run to the studio for ANN. He came later and ANN was super fun! I will write a summary on my next post hahaha
NAVIGATOR's MV was finally released on YouTube yesterday-- ! ! ! Did you guys see it~?? It's super cool ne~ If you like it, share/spread it to your friends and family! Please do lol I'm desperate here. lol *I made something good! With confidence, I would like to show it to as many people as possible.
It's fun to compare the differences between the songs and our growth by alterntely watching with MV of Imitation Rain! See how each is good on their own, and notice our growth! Please try it~
Let's continue like this with teamSixTONES~ Yaaaay~
Then, everyone, till next time~
t/n : * I - not sure if he meant himself or them as a group
I love how the biggest fans of SixTONES is the members themselves! Also, NAVIGATOR MV surpasses 1M view in less than 15 hrs!! So cool!! And saw a lot turning into Juri-tans hahahaha! Love that!!
Did everyone watch yesterday's CDTV LIve! Live! ? I did my best to convey to many people as much as possible how good the song is I wonder if this increased team SixTONES? lol Still naive? lol Iya, it grew! Absolutely increased! It's rude to everyone if I don't have confidence, ne!
NAVIGATOR is so cool right~ DId everyone like it? Even my uncle says it's cool lol We got a cool song this time, so let's keep going team SixTONES! Everyone around will scream (cheering) I'm telling you! What an agressive (t/n : confident?) thing to say
Ah, and I'm looking forward to Hokuto's movie Do your best!
Then, till next time~
**No pics**
t/n : i love Juri's confidence and pushing this agenda! Who's better to be a fan of your song that yourself yes? haha SixTONES' members are really their best fans! And yeees, Juri's looking forward to Hoku's movie~! I lvoe supportive members and brothers!
Today is June 22nd, exactly one month before NAVIGATOR is on sale! iya~ I want to hurry and show everyone our work Everyone, don't miss it?
By the way, did everyone already preorder? If you can afford it, please do so, you will never regret it! This time too, I'll work wholeheartedly, that's why, team SixTONES, please continue to support us.
Anyway, today's CDTV LIVE! LIVE! Look forward to it~!

**No pics**
t/n : NAVIGATOR performance tonight is sooo good!!! Juri's rap is amazing!! Their dance is so cool!! Also, MV YouTube Edit will be out on the 25th! Let's all watch it!!
Finally, it's my birthday tomorrow, this is the last as being 24 year old Tanaka Juri everyone Please trend "田中樹アラサー"? I can be a member of Arashi too right? But somehow only the number increased but nothing has changed all this time~ Is that also attractive? 😉 However I will continue to grow~ (t/n: i think he meant in terms of changing?) And skills too
I think it's better to say something like an aspiration like that for closing, but it's not like that! Since I'm 25 years old now, I have already done the things I have to do~ That's why I will stick with this style~ (winking emoji) Everyone, from here onwards, please take care of me as always.
By the way, i'm with Kyomo on my last day as a 24 year old. This is a job, but it's almost a date right? Right? Right?! (t/n: lol so cute, he really wants someone to confirm that it's not just him thinking it's a date) But Kyomo didn't mention birthday at all? That's also nice
Then, everyone, till next time~
**No pics**
t/n : Juri's last post was on June 6 so this was a nice update from him! It's so cute too how he's kinda hyped about him and Taiga's having a date even though it's really a job. lol Is he really done shipping Taiga with Hoku? hahaha so cute!! Btw, it's my first time translating! I used online translators, but I checked phrases and words and used words I think that fits or make sense, so this is not 100% accurate! Would love if you can point out mistakes and teach me~
