KAT-TUN



KATTUN is the most recent addition to JE's debuted artists. Their name is consists of the first letter of their family names: Kamenashi, Akanishi, Taguchi, Tanaka, Ueda, and Nakamaru. It was made to sound like "cartoon". They debuted in March 2006 with Real Face, the limited addition was sold out and was sold out overseas as well. They have surpassed all sales for JE. They also released a DVD at the same time.
Akanishi Jin actually retired from the group to pursue studies in America for English in October 2006.
Domoto Koichi from Kinki Kids chose them as his backdancers, which began their career as KATTUN.
There's just so much info about them, i don't know if i can't fit it all here, nor that i can remember it all at once lol.
They're actually not KATTUN anymore...Akanishi Jin went to the US to further his studies in English...but the group claims to continue performing.
Ueda Tatsuya is the offical leader of the group.
They collaborated with Kanjani8 in Dream Boys 2006 and they also did Summary with NewS.
