As far back as I can remember that incident with Kuu is the most significant recent scandal along with SMAP's Tsuyoshi Kusanagi. It's only natural people start drawing some comparisons I think, especially those interested in knowing the damage that could possibly result from a scandal involving a big name celebrity. Somewhere inside me is saying this won't be half as bad as the other two I mentioned, which is definitely a good sign.

Just so everyone is on the same page as me:

Yeah, well people in Japan actually cared enough about the Ku and SMAP scandals so it didn't take ages to report about those. All I am saying is that this has been blown out of proportions and is in no way similar to what the SMAP guy did.
