That's what happens when I make fun of Fumito
Got myself a pigeon feather!
Today is Johnny's WEST, yes!
JWEST, just like Kanjani8 are all from the Kansai region and were part of Kansai Johnny's Jr
And as they're from Kansai, the region located more west of Tokyo
They're Johnny's from the West, so their name is...
And voila.
Gramps Johnny's outdid himself again to find a name
The JWEST story is quite original, they were initially around 7 members, 4 of which were picked in order to debut as a group
and finally, in April 2014, the 3 members were added back to debut with 7 members
Some like me would say this is a touching story, others might think it's just a marketing strategy
What happened really?
Marketing-san?
Minion-kun, what's up?
Hi
You don't look good
I'm bringing a memo from Manager-san, about JWEST
JWEST4
No, JWEST. Oh my, You haven't heard?
Here's the memo
"JWEST4 becomes JWEST,"
"and they're 7,"
"lol."
I know, isn't it...
FFS man, heads-up maybe?
I know, it's beautiful!
What do you mean 7? I already started all the promo with 4 members! You think this is easy?!
Fuck, man
They went from 7 to 4 and then went crying to Manager-san and Gramps Johnny to get their friends back
and now they're altogether to debut with 7 members!
Say again?
This friendship, this commitment, it touches my soul...
That, is AWESOME
What?
Minion-kun do you not understand?
Do you realise how much money we can make with that story?
What the hell?
If you're already crying like a bitch...
I don't cry...
Yes, you do
Really?
I swear you're crying like a virgin maiden about to get married
Now imagine the fans!
...No? No, no no no!
Man, they're good!
They're fucking good!
Tell Manager-san I'm on it, you'll get a press release in the hour (Marketing-san, please...)
I'm on FIRE! On fire, baby! AWESOME
Fuck
What I think make JWEST just as great as K8 is their onstage skits and MCs
The skits and play are hilarious, the MCs are madcap, it's something they really worked on
Their melody can be divided between 50% of fun and 50% of serious, basically there's no middle ground
It's either crazy or swagilicious
To me, JWEST is one of these Johnny's group that could debut on the K-pop scene
because they have the looks, the sound and the choreo
With Domoto Koichi as their Manager
I'm not giving up
I know, in terms of choreo they're not on HSJ level
but they're higher than KT, and KT went to perform in Korea!
At the time....
Ok let's start with:
aka Fatty
It's not me saying, it's Japan
I personally think he's the only one with a normal weight
Akito is our screaming sow
He's like Subaru, the one screaming in the mic,
Generally harmony and rap parts are well split between the members but Akito tends to scream
way more than the 6 others
With his BFF Nakama Junta (more about him later) Akito was part of a duo called B.A.D
They got noticed mainly for their role in Gokusen 3
He's our clown, he's loud, I mean they all are, they're Kansai people
But he takes his role to heart, especially his Harapeko side
Everyone makes fun of his weight so he turned it into a joke
Drama-wise, Akito is mostly know for Gokusen but also for Asa ga Kita
JWEST are often appearing in SC and Akito is sharing the MC with ABC-Z's Fumito
We also secretly think that Akito is gay as he tends to run after the members
The running joke being his suspicious behavior
I believe he's been in a relationship with Junta the whole time. Wut?
aka The old man. Jk, but he's the eldest
Junta is kinda a hidden leader, as the eldest of the group he's trying to keep the herd in order
Yes, they're very agitated, Junta might seem calmer but you'd be fooled
Junta has the role of Tsukkomi
In Japanese comedy called manzai there are 2 roles: Tsukkomi and Boke
Boke being the one goofing around and Tsukkomi the one yelling to point the mistakes
If you watch JWEST and notice one shouting at the others, that's Junta
I know what you're thinking: he has fat lips
It's ok, everyone is already making jokes about it so you can join the fun
JWEST is ruthless. I find that Junta is the love child of SMAP's Shingo and Tatsuya Ueda
I like that
Kami-chan to me is the one who can do everything: dancing, singing, acting, impersonation
He's hilarious when impersonating Kame, I just *smack* I love it
Best Kame ever
Kami-chan is a bit of a fashionista, his look is always flashy, very colorful, lots of accessories
He's also changing his hairstyle the most
He's also acrobat in the band, so jumping around a lot
Maybe he's compensating for being short
And it's working wonders to me
In Japanese Kami means "God" and for me, he really is living by his divine name
Kami-chan is also the group's mum, he's doing the laundry and cooking for the members when touring
Maybe the one caring the most and therefore the one everyone loves
He's just perfect, Ok!
For me, he has one of the prettiest voice in the group
He can be MC, the goofy one, the warm up act, he has a great dynamic with Akito
and are very funny together
He's a Joker, you can put him in every position (rap, dance, singing) and he'll do great adapting
I think he's the second screaming sow and he's also the second acrobat
Only 2 can do that: a tall and a small one. The tall one is Hama-chan
Basically Hama-chan is multifunction, he's our good guy
Like Kami-chan and Ryusei (more about him later) was part of the 3 members that were added back before the group's debut
Wouldn't be the same without him!
Next member
Nozomu is our big baby, don't get fooled by his height
I know, he's very tall but he's the youngest, barely 20 y/o
Therefore, Nozomu needs a lot of attention
From the members, the audience and the camera!
He's a bit of a brat
He needs to play with everyone all the time and it's hysterical
However, the group has a funny side and a swaggy side
In Swag mode, Nozomu will be our Sexy Bitch
Looking good
Like many Sexy Bitches, he may slightly be narcissistic
But having a lot of self-mockery, he balances everything out so we let it go
With short hair, he has ears that stick out
Hey, I didn't make Pink Elephant up!
Next member
Careful! Don't mix him up with this Shige
I know: confusing, considering they're both gorgeous but they're different!
Shige is the naughty kid. On stage he looks very serious, passionate, swag
Often in the middle because he's shorter, he has a great face and looks like Ranma 1/2
And I loved Ranma Saotome, I had a massive crush on him!
Now, backstage Shige likes to annoy everyone.
Basically, Nozomu is annoying on stage and Shige takes over backstage
And we forgive because... look at this smile!
That adorable mouth full of teeth!
First time I saw him I thought "Hey, he looks like Massu but is called Shige"..!
When he speaks his voice is quite high pitch and twangy, he can get on your nerves
and it contrasts with his singing voice: very soft, smooth, you almost can't hear him
We'd get along really well. With Akito too.
Very loud, they never shut up, and both Virgo... like me.
Explains a lot!
And finally:
aka Dopey!
Ryusei is easy to spot: you have 2 tall guys called Twin Towers
One is Nozomu, the other is Ryusei. They're usually in each other's pocket
When he shuts up, Ryusei is the cool guy, very classy, dresses up nicely, very popular by the way
He's like.. Heyyy!
Now when he opens his mouth....brace yourself
All the members make fun of him because he's er...not the sharpest knife
He's the group's simpleton. Doesn't mean he's stupid. He's not.
He's like Aiba in Arashi
He tried to fight against it, then quickly gave up because 1) the members don't care and 2)...
It was this or nothing, so he accepted his fate
Ryusei, with Nozomu, are the 2 ikemen, they're the visual that will sell the band
But... And I speak only for myself
He's the least handsome
You always need that one member to make fun of
For me it's Ryusei
I'm not even sorry, I love him for this. Plus, it's easy because he's giving me the stick to hit!
In my defense, all JWEST members are doing the same so I'm joining the fun because
otherwise they'd get upset
JWEST didn't split the roles based on who's doing harmonies or rapping, they usually switch
but I find that Ryusei tends to rap more than the others
I personally think his solos are the best, it's exactly the style that I love. Same for his clothes
I love his style. Every time, I think that Junta has the worst look ever and Ryusei has the best one
It compensates, you see!
There you go! I hope you enjoyed this video,
Let me know in the comments what you thought of it
Before you ask: Yes, I'll do Kisumai and yes I'll do HSJ
I won't do Sexy Zone, I'm very sorry but it's a lot of work to prepare
I have to watch TV shows, interviews, backstage and making of
I'm very sorry but Sexy Zone is not for me.
Maybe later, I'll find time to take care of them!
