-Akasaka Akira [Hikaru Genji] (1973)
-Inagaki Goro [SMAP] (1973)
-Kusanagi Tsuyoshi [SMAP] (1974)

Chuutai = leaving school during a term (that's what the online translator said)
But I don't really know the reasons for their chuutai-s xD And, gee....both Nagase and Ayumi were chuutai-s?? That's suspicious
Well, after I calculate. They should've been in the same school for a year!^^
Goro and Tsuyoshi are from the 1993 class-year(the year they graduate). While, Matsu is from the 1996 class-year(YES! When she was filming Long Vacation in April 1996, she JUST graduated from highschool^^).
Their highschool period are 4 years. So, when Matsu Takako was a first-year student, Goro & Tsuyoshi are the fourth-year students^^ The top senpai-s, ne~!!^^
Haha....but they never mention about being in the same school. Maybe Goro and Tsuyoshi didn't notice her yet...heehee...she was not popular yet, in first grade^^
super long list.. hahaa im so surprised many of them are from the same school..
hahaha nagase and ayumi started dating even before entering the entertainment industry.. or maybe when they just entered..i think.. they dated for eight years.. if im not wrong..
i love both of them =D hahaha _________________

Minna, Smap performed at FNS Music Festival this year (Dear Woman and Arigatou)...does anyone know where I can get a torrent link to the whole show? I saw the Dear Woman part but can't upload it to youtube because it's too many MB. Hopefully they'll get to do Dear Woman at Kouhaku, too.
I kind of don't like FNS music festival because most of the audience looks bored as hell and the sound mixing is always bad unless the singers straight up lipsync. But it's always interesting to see some of the performances.
yap.. i was also hoping they would dance Dear woman.. i like their dance steps in the song _________________

Today greatest news is supposed to be the HERO movie!!!!! Yay!! Another Kimura-Matsu combi work!!!
Takuya and Nakai used to be transfer students in the same high school, as many of you knew that... During the entrance, Nakai couldn't do the exam because he can't read kanji, so he whispered to Takuya and ask him to move aside.. So Takuya really move aside and let him copy his answers in exam. Nakai really appreciated that because without Takuya's help, he wouldn't had passed the exam!
And Takuya and Nakai also spent Christmas together when they're 17 or 18... They had cake at Nakai's place, then went to Aoyama... I think they said it was 'girl hunting'...
Goro and Tsuyoshi were also from the same high school, that famous artist school, Horikoshi High School. Many famous Johnny's were from this school, like KinKi Kids, Yayayah, Yamapi, Koki, Toma, etc...Even Matsu Takako!! Goro once said in tv show that Tsuyoshi really strong in fighting.. When they met some bullies, Tsuyoshi protected Goro!!! How sweet~
hahaha i cant imagine small takuya and nakai cheating in exam
must be really kawaii..
hahaha given their looks.. i wonder if there were many girls crazy over them back in school... _________________

wad exam was that? but takuya as always is willing to help his friend. even if it means copying his work.
it's hard to imagine a skinny boy like tsuyoshi protecting goro.. i wonder if they ever saw matsu in school? or had they alr graduated that time when she was there??
Since Nakai was in Kanagawa while Takuya was in Chiba, they had to transfer to another high school in Tokyo and start working in Tokyo(as Johnny's Jr.). So to enter new high school, they need to pass the entrance exam. According to Nakai, it was a private high school and it needed money to get in too.
Oh ya, Yanie... I've checked... Tsubasa was in the same Junior High School as Nakai, not high school. It was Fujisawa Shiritsu Meiji Chuu Gakkou. The high school that Nakai and Takuya attended is Tokyo Shiritsu Yoyogi Kotou Gakkou, they're in the same basketball team as well. Uehara Takako is from this high school. So, all this time Nakai entered private school....

Actually, they bonded since 1998, the Hokkaido ice batsu trip^^ In 2000, they were interviewed together and Shingo told him, "You should come to my place, after this interview,". Or was it, Goro who invite Shingo to his place? I forgot x) So their relationship by this time must have already grown much better. After that interview, Goro said they stopped by at a combini...and the cashier girl kept starring at them. That lucky girl!! To see 2 SMAP members in front of her eyes!>_<
The New York batsu trip was in 2002. And they bonded even more, ne!^^

Inagaki Goro Birthday POST!: A day early, but better now than never!
Goro is a well known member of SMAP for all the wrong reason's. His older sister signed him up to talent agency in hopes of meeting the bigger stars of the late 80's. Loyal and eager to please his sister; he went head first into the Jimusho's training and found himself not up to par with the dancing and singing skills of his peers. Upon first impression Johnny Kitagawa founder of the agency singled him as "bitter-sweet" and "stylish". It should be wise to point out that Goro is the only SMAP member and probably one of the few talents that make up the agency to refer to Kitagawa by Hiromu-san.Goro became a name in Japan's public households before SMAP became really famous, thanks to a seedy tell-all book by a former Four Leaves member who allege that Kitagawa was intimate with Goro.
Goro was most close with SMAP member Mori Katsuyuki who left the band in 1996. It was here that Goro starts to put up a front of being brash, harsh and almost snobbish. Seeing his other band mates having their own 'partner' to fall back on. Goro retreated to himself and often followed his own interests and hobbies, causing him to further isolate himself from the group. In interviews Shingo Katori would vent his frustations on his relationship with Goro, saying it was painful spending at time with him outside SMAP-related activites. Their relationship was clearly strained and it wasn't until a trip to US to tape a SmaSma episode that the two finally bonded.
In 1997,Goro met Miho Kanno, a young a former idol singer in the group Sakurakko Club Sakura Group and model. Goro met Miho during a live music program, where it was SMAP leader Nakai Masahiro intitially impressed with the young female. It wasn't until sometime during 1999, that the pair teamed up for the Saimin flim that they started dating. The relationship was rock soild, up until her release of her nude photobook. Goro cheated on Miho with a string of women, mostly women he would pick up from bars. The media looked down on Goro fo shamelessly faulting his other women in public. Goro would later issue a public apology to Miho stating he would give up drinking.
It seems Goro's bad luck never ceases because in 2001, Goro turned a simple parking ticket into a hit and run. It was a media circus with Goro's name back in the public for all the wrong reasons. The Jimusho was firm and issued a sixth month suspension from any and all media and getting dropped from the latest SMAP tour. It was a LONG six months.
Since 2004, Goro's relationship with his fellow SMAP members is stronger than ever, with a new passion for SMAP, Goro is eager to perform and a zest for touring. His solo songs have turned from slow sappy tunes, to morbid almost dreadful songs; Goro has recently started to embrace a positive heart-rending sound that I enjoy! Goro is close with SMAP member Kimura Takuya and is the only member to actually speak of Kimura's marrige to singer Shizuka Kudo (Of couse the things he says is in his typical brash way, but I think he means well.) His relationship with Miho Kanno still contiunes with him buying her a bicycle, out of all things on her 26th birthday! So she can ride up to his manison and see him whenever she has time. No lie! Those words were from Miho herself! He's recently found success in the drama world as the lead of "Busu no Hitomi ni Koishiteru".
Inagaki Goro isn't the most perfect, but I think that is why I like him best. It's hard to find a big talent that not only admits his faults but also embracing them. When I was 11 year's old; I saw someone had a left a magazine open on there was a two page spread of Goro. I was so overwhelmed and stunnded by his looks, that the first Asian person I saw, I demanded they translate what was written about him. The person was Chinese but knew some basic Japanese and mumbled something about his love of cats and this SMAP thing. I went to investigate this SMAP thing and I never looked back. Goro has an instability about him that reminds me that he is only human. I have follow his career from the high's and the low's and all that bad and good stuff inbetween. I look foward to another 13 year's. I want nothing but the best for you! Happy Birthday and thanks for the laughs, the tears and everything inbetween.
Not Goro related but it's cute to see a 5th grader Shingo speak to the SMAP members, and even at a young age he has his doubts in Goro. Poor Goro. It's english subtitled, so it's rather charming to hear Shingo speak to his bandmates.
http://www.youtube.com/v/LqLvB0j-fT0
In the SMAP PV Triangle, Goro is in a Nursing home. THIS JUST WINS because I work in a Nursing home and it's good to see Goro with the eldery.
http://www.youtube.com/v/QzO0-WVzyhQ
so much information is flooding my head now..
the reason why goro joined the agency sure is funny
the elder sister is funnie!
goro isolated himself from smap for a period of time???
i pity him for losing his best mate in smap after mori left..
he must have struggled alot
heh.. i like that pic of small smap members together.. hahhaahah
everyone look soooo young!! how old were they?? they looked like thirteen yr old to me.. even though it cant be that young _________________

Well, according to Nakai and SmaCourt, in high school they were already known as Smap members. And fangirls would always stand in front of the school gate and waited for them. During graduation day, there were so many fans that they can't get out through the main gate and had to use the back gate.
FNS whole show torrent probably would the out in jpopsuki later. Too bad they didn't show up in Best Artist this year, the audiences in Best Artist were more 'energetic' and mostly Johhny's fans.

i remember johnny gave takuya a really hard time when he announced his marriage w/o getting th company's consent..
i feel sad.. whether i think about it..
life must be really tough for the artiste..
the same goes for nagase and ayumi.. there were news that nagase wanted to marry ayumi but was prevented in doing so.. the report states that Jin (from kattun) leaving the group serves as a warning for nagase..
at that time jin was dating this really hot model.. _________________

Yeah, but you have to feel bad for the Four Leaves guy because he was the first to suffer the abuse for many years starting as a teenager. It has to be true...do you know of any man that would make up a story about being raped by another man.
