KANJANI8 loves new KAT-TUN threads.
because no one visits theirs.

happy posting! :)

LOL jin IS the wannabe american :laugh

aww, poor kanjani8 :P

I know poor Akanishi :roflmao

& YAY for new thread

haha really ? that I couldn't tell , on the sadist bit

any eg.s that someone can provide to support this factor ?

EDIT - & for the record I don't mind to take Ueda since the other 5 are all taken :innocent

what's a sadist, btw? is he like...sad most of the time or something? sorry to ask. :dead2

from http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/sadist :

"someone who obtains pleasure from inflicting pain or others"

LOL , Ueda a Sadist ?! that's quite hard to imagine

wow, that's something i never heard of before. so he's a bit of a meanie, basically? how...attractive? :laugh

well HEYx3's Downtown's Macchan is also considered a sadist too

maybe Ueda's a mini version of Macchan ? LOL

btw, irene, are these scans in the first post new? kame looks good with his hair in them, haha.

yayy 7th thread for kattun!!!
thanks for the graphics, irene-chan!! =)

Since this has not been posted yet , I thought I do so now :

CDTV Poll: Which artists would you have as a lover according to http://www.tbs.co.jp/cdtv/

MALE MUSICIANS:

01. Jin Akanishi (KAT-TUN)
02. Kazuya Kamenashi (KAT-TUN)
03. HYDE (L'Arc~en~Ciel)
04. Jun Matsumoto (Arashi)
05. Tomohisa Yamashita (NEWS)
06. TAKAHIRO (EXILE)
07. Takahisa Massuda (NEWS)
08. Jaejoong (TOHOSHINKI)
09. TAKUYA∞ (UVERworld)
10. Sho Sakurai (Arashi)

Akame , power !

where're the rest , especially Tanaka :weep

about Ueda as a sadist: it was the cartoon KAT-TUN episode w/ Takasugi Satomi (actually, it wasn't shown on the actual episode, but one of the specials). all of them took a psychology test where they had to draw on shapes & objects. and one of Ueda's pics revealed he was a S-type. i forgot the total story to it, but yeah.

Junno's the M-type. LOL.

Lisa - the scans are from this summer. but they're not the most recent (i think it's the July issue of Wink Up). i couldn't bear doing graphics w/ Kame's current look. :P

Karen - i just posted that CDTV list in the last thread (Post #460)? u even posted them on the Arashi & NEWS threads too!

ueda - :roflmao

I only know that taguchi likes to be kicked around by tanaka in their show

didn't expect that from Ueda

& oh sorry I didn't realise the list was already posted I think I missed it in the previous thread

wow :love

I love SMACK man . The 1st time I heard it , I was really surprised , he got some pretty good vocals going on in him

Cos he seldom sings & tend to beat box a lot so that's a good chance for me to hear how he actually sounded like

SMACK's actually 1 of my fave solo songs on the DUES single :thumbsup

i will say Maru has really improved vocally. either that or he's just getting more solo lines in songs because he was barely in their Junior songs. :lmfao his solos are getting better & better too. none of his previous ones stood out, i don't even remember his Live Kaizokuban solo. o_o;;

LOL

I didn't like LOVEJUICE initally but I do admit it's growing on me super big time no thanks to my younger sister , she keeps playing it on her laptop til she drives me nuts :dead2

that also happened to 2 of ARASHI's songs too *annoyed*

LOVEJUICE was a big surprise from me. i wasn't expecting a Western song at all, but after listening to it, i kinda laughed and went, "Oh Jin. You & your Western obsession :lmfao"

though, i kinda wish he would go back to his more ~meaningful~ songs, like "care" or "ムラサキ". just once. and i'll be ecstatic. :)
