[KAT-TUN] HEARTBREAK CLUB - The KAT-TUN Thread XIII - ♥

[ll moments ll]

welcome to the lucky number 13th thread!

KAT-TUN

KAT-TUN. kinda sounds like cartoon. because it is how the Japanese pronounce it. LOL. let's see. formed in 2001 by Mr. ~FLY PRINCE~ Koichi Domoto of the KinKi Kids. made their awesome debut in spring 2006 with "Real Face", an album, & DVD. all of them went to #1. the only other artist to achieve that weekly was ms. ayumi hamasaki!

they are more aggressive-looking than their other JE peers. they also do more rock-influence numbers, along with dance and other non-typical idol genres. they are western influenced, due to Jin, most likely. LOL. but all of them have a lot foreign interests. all of their releases thus far has been #1 on the charts and they continue to dominate & expand all horizons. they are the only act that has performed at Tokyo Dome for 8 days straight. it's like their 2nd home, really. ♥

亀梨和也
* kame has a thing for being different. he's like...the KAT-TUN fashionista. he's BEST JEANIST, HAAAY. he's also quite overdramatic. which will often resort to him getting drunk off his ass and make him beat up a taxi driver (it was rumored tho. but we here at the KAT-TUN thread appreciate their rumors. 2nd to SMAP, i say). he's also the hardest-working. he sweats determination, but makes sure his Dolce & Gabbana man purse doesn't get too wet. he also seems to cross-dress every once in a while...he also somewhat assumes group leader, when the other guys look dead from touring, he's the one always yapping about baseball in interviews.


赤西仁
* look at him. what a smug, polarizing, american wannabe. he's gonna get you drunk of his lovejuice. THAT'S RIGHT. it's jin akanishi. ur #1 most wanted lover. jin's got a bachelor's degree in speaking Los Angeles slang and got a reputation for telling other girly JE peers to "F--- OFF" (like i said. these KT rumors are amaaaazing). but in reality, jin's actually quite. normal & even shy. he's honestly really cute when i read his interviews. he cherishes his friends & family. he's known for his friendship with NEWS' YamaPi. DID U KNOW HE JOINED JE BECAUSE HE KINDA FANBOYED RYO NISHIKIDO? AMAAAAAZING.


田口淳之介
* ah, the sound of silence. it's beautiful isn't it? or maybe it's rather awkward because that's the sound after junno pulls off a ridiculous pun. even the rest of KAT-TUN doesn't even laugh at his puns anymore. because they're that. bad. but it's okay, we love junno. he's our not-so-funny, acrobat & tap dancer. he makes the most randomest comments and enjoys getting hurt. cuz he's the masochistic kind of guy. but junno is KAT-TUN's #1 fan. even when KAT-TUN gets into fights, he's smiling & loves his bandmates. even if they all decide to actually kill him one of these days.


田中聖
* KOKI'S GONNA BEAT U UP. HE'S SO GANGSTA. HE'S GONNA WHACK U OVER THE HEAD WITH AN AXE OF LOVE. wat? no, Koki's really nice, actually. almost too sweet, if you ask me. he loves writing about his mom and dad on Mother's & Father's Day on his j-web. he's a good soul, but dresses like he's from the Yakuza (he did play one in "My Boss, My Hero" tho! LOL) he's also got a little brother in JE with him, Tanaka Juri. DID I EVER TELL U KOKI WAS THE CUTEST LITTLE KID? OMFG. SO PRECIOUS. he also pissed off Johnny when he shaved his head, but when KT debuted, Johnny liked it.


上田竜也
* ueda never really talks. only when forced to. LOL. but he's the most mysterious member. actually, i didn't really get to know him until he finally decided to do some solo activities like his solo concerts & romeo and juliet stageplay. he also starred in his first j-drama this past spring! he is KAT-TUN's most talented musician, i say. he's written every solo song and has even composed many of them! oh! i guess i could say that he's gotten into fights with all the members, even punching kame in the face. LOL. and he had a one time tiff with Ryo Nishikido (tho. reports have said it was staged!) ...and i suppose one time in his life he spoke to fairies.


中丸雄一
* you see that guy making weird sounds from his mouth? the beatboxer? it's maru! OH U KNO WHAT TOO. he's the only guy in KT that's in college right now. he's studying environmental science. it seems like nowadays, maru is getting picked on a lot. maybe even more so than junno! maybe because junno is more fearless, idk. that boy will fall into a volcano smiling. anyway, maru is ultimately scared of heights! the staff of their TV show even made him bungee jump all 8 days of their Tokyo Dome takeover! maru is the most normal of the guys, i guess. even kame thinks he is too normal and can't imagine him with a girlfriend.

omg I love HEARTBREAK CLUB *______* , it's 1 of my fave tunes in cartoon KAT-TUN II you

thanks for naming the new thread after it Eirynne , I wasn't expecting it though

still sore that you didn't use 1582

*joke* & time for you to change XII to XIII in your signature Eirynne

[ll moments ll]

i made a rule to use KT songs instead of solo ones, because obviously, i will either choose Kame and/or Jin song titles. though i'm real tempted to use this for once:

"LOVEJUICE ~The Jin Akanishi Appreciation Thread + Those Other 5 Guys~"

or

"KFC ~Kamenashi Fan Club~ || YOU MAY TALK ABOUT THOSE 5 OTHER GUYS HERE TOO"

or

"Taguchi Junnosuke ~LOLWHO?!~"

[KarenPang]

omg those solo thread titles are golden but I see your point because I guess you don't want to come across as someone who exercises favourism on certain people in the group which in this case it's Akame & Junno

so it's ok , I understand . That's why for my Break the Records clearfile , I went for the group 1 so that I will not neglect the other 4 xD

kinda helped that I don't really like Kame & Tat-chan's solo shots of their clearfiles that much too LOL

[KarenPang]

futari_love updates consisting of Trans on Jin's MANUAL.38, Screencaps of Kame in TV Prog, Preview of Gokusen PB & Yamapi on 食わず嫌い

http://futari-love.livejournal.com/76185.html

omg I can't believe BANDAGE will be released in 1/2 year's time O_O & haha , bless the "It's had been miserable because I drank too much during my birthday" xD

eee I love Kame's new hair do & colour *____* & someone should scan the GOKUSEN photobook sooonnnnn

[Beauty4123]

"Taguchi Junnosuke ~LOLWHO?!~"

CLASSIC

yay for new thread! i like the song title that's used. can't wait for some new and amazing graphics, too

btw, i just saw kame's new hair. i like it, but i think the color's a bit too bright? i prefer darker hair better for kame

[KarenPang]

I probably can come up with a Tat-chan one now

Ueda Tatsuya - the famous slient but violent DoS & the ex "JRock reject & I see fairies loveable weirdo" xD xD xD

sorry Tat-chan , you know I love you still

Lisa I frankly think Kame's new hair colour's nice . 2 years ago , after Akanishi came back from LA , Kame went really 'over brown' which I don't really like at all

his new hair colour kinda reminded me of Kami no Shizuku era to a certain extent but of course nothing beats LIPS / IchiPon hair colour/do anytime of the day for me xD xD xD

, I want to do 2 headers for the 2 T's but a bit brain drain at the mo T_T

er let me see ...

Tanaki Koki & the 5 other guys want to Make U Wet (omg I secretly love this HAHAHAHA xD xD xD)

Taguchi Junnosuke & the 5 other guys want you to chant "Iriguchi , Deguch i , Taguchi desu" (Yokoyama You's a genius )

[MissElin_]

Haha love that Jin quote. ^^

[Beauty4123]

i'm watching CDTV and they had this poll. kame got #2 and jin got #1, lol. i dunno what kind of poll it was, but if jin got #1, then it must be on his appearance or something, i dunno YUI got #1 too, lol.

edit: ohh, it was "which artist would you like as a lover", lol. no wonder jin's #1

[~Inori~]

^Jin been number-one for how long now? Someone needs to dethrone him.

[Beauty4123]

yeah!

even though i have a catalog of KT scans, i'm having a hard time choosing for the thread. but i think i found some good ones. oh! & i found the Harry Potter cosplay pics. i'll post them later, though they're not the best of quality.

LOL. Jin will forever top the charts.

MAN. there's so many "Gokusen THE MOVIE" video clips. i don't know what to download. though Jin's VTR message is out although it's LQ, but i'll post the HQ clip whenever it's out.

[KarenPang]

my younger sister pull a face about the CDTV lover poll thing again (even though she's happy for YUI's case ) on why Akanishi's 1st again

er Eirynne , I think you should be prepared to expect another PM from me in due time because of these Kame 'gender bender' 1582 live performance photos - http://community.livejournal.com/jon...ds/428572.html



oh great , what a way to start my morning xD xD xD & can you please use those shots for the 1st thread , pretty please ?!?!?!

[ll moments ll]

WHOO. i am done with the thread, guys. i hope you like it.

here are those Harry Potter pics i talked about earlier!!

Spoiler:
