Sadly that’s been removed.

 

Anticipate Sixtones debuting on YouTube with the other groups!

 

 

[GetRapper]

Sixtones is the most promising, plus their name is not super cringey!

[--Mari--]

they seem to be releasing these introduction videos in seniority order ( the once created earlier release videos first) so next is hihijet and lastly tokyo b shounen. Im still curious whats going to happen with love-tune their band concept seemed unique and they seemed promising. But with all these rumors i wonder if they are planning on leaving J&A.

Tokyo B Shounen

 

 

HiHiJets

[--Mari--]

Sadly that’s been removed.

someone re uploaded it again. Btw do you think it would be good if someone made a thread for johnnys jr where people could discus their youtube videos and keep up with the groups and who might be debuting next.

KnP really reminds me of KATTUN. ToT Might as well use this as the official thread. I’ll change the title later and have mods move it to the group sections.

Hmm I wouldn't call these Jrs 'trainees' because that's quite misleading. Unlike the Kpop trainees, these Jrs are actually already working and getting paid. Technically, even people like Ikuta Toma, Kazama Shunsuke, Yara Tomoyuki, Hamanaka Bunichi are also Jrs.

 

Not to mention not all Jr units are even taking part. Where are the prominent Kansai Jr units? This channel is especially made for Tokyo Jrs in mind, at the moment.

Even if Love-tune are leaving, they were NOT the first Jrs who would leave J&A. Jrs leave the agency every year especially considering only a handful could debut out of the 100s Jrs they have. There were way more prominent Jr units who have left the agency some years ago, and it's definitely not because of the recent rumours.

 

And about those rumours? I've warned this on twitter already, but please don't believe everything you read, especially if it's cited by that twitter user yanie. She only cited tabloids (and not even the more believable tabloids) and Johnny-hater blogs.

this thread kinda evolved into a jr thread since there isn't one so we haven't really sorted out a proper opening post or anything and I'm sure you know more than us about jr units so if you want to help build this thread (i don't want to talk about a anyone else here ) but im sure blank_stare wouldn't mind 

[gudetama]

Yay I was hoping for a thread to discuss the juniors! I'm definitely going to check out all the vids they'll post but I'm sad I don't know any of them other than Snowman and SixTones

I know that I just really like love-tune and the fact that they didn’t join the YouTube thing and all the rumors make me worried. And yes I know not to trust twitter rumors I don’t take anything seriously what that smap fans says (if you know who I’m talking about) most of it is crap. I’m not trying to offend you and if I did I’m sorry about that .

The only reason I called this thread JR is because they haven’t officially or no major debut, despite already working for them. But that’s how JE’s JRs work. It’s better than Kpop Trainees since they get money while still being a trainee. I wouldn’t mind if you write their bio since I don’t know them much.

That’s alright. I don’t know most of these guys. I’ve only heard them from other fans, such as HiHiJets and SixTones. Edited March 20, 2018 by blank_stare

So the first videos have been released its them planning what kinda videos they are going to make so i guess its not the actual videos yet . im side eyeing johnnys choice of release time its literally midnight in japan right now . since this is a competition go watch it on youtube.  ps Hikarus abs make an appearance too

I meant the word 'trainee', not Jr. Like I said, it's misleading because why should we still refer to Toma, Kazama, Yara or Bunchan as trainees still when they've been working for 20 years.

 

I'm not a Jr fan despite knowing the names of every single debuted Johnny's, and while I do try to get to know other groups' activities, the only Johnny's I'm actually a fan of are Kanjani8, KinKi Kids and Johnny's WEST. I know the faces and the names of more Kansai Jrs than Tokyo Jrs, because I prefer those Kansai kids than the Tokyo kids. So if any of the Kansai units are actually participating, I might be more interested in this project lol.

Anyway, this Johnny's Jr page on J-net should come in handy:

Though I didn't see them listing the names of the units, but maybe I didn't look around enough.

if you can write something about kansai jr i can take tokyo jrs since i have kinda been following them for awhile now. yeah they don't list any names in j-net for jrs .
