I'm surprised to hear that Hey! Say! JUMP's Keito Okamoto could be leaving Hey! Say! JUMP. Already down to nine after Ryutaro Morimoto's underage smoking scandal several years back, that's going to be the second member HSJ is going to lose.

I'm not sure how viable it is for me to continue buying HSJ releases (I'm targeting CDs at the moment, not concert Blu-rays) after hearing this news.

Rumors are saying (source is Shuukan Bunshun tabloid) that Okamoto Keito could be leaving Hey! Say! JUMP. WHOA.

Okamoto is member of the Hey! Say! 7 subunit, which is down to four after Morimoto Ryutaro left following the underage smoking scandal. If Keito leaves, that subunit will go down to three (the Hey! Say! BEST subunit is still intact at five).

Wow, I'm shocked at this. I didn't expect this to happen.
