A QUITE AND TALKLESS LEADER,

HIS 20 YEARS DREAMS START TO SPREAD THE WINGS AND FLY

He is a leader of the very popular idol group, yet he still humble and low profile. Other members see him as a kind hearted and always smile leader. When Arashi held the first debut concert he thought that he has no fan and the first thing he did on stage is searching for his Uchiwa among the attendants. He said those words to his agency 20 years ago for the first time, he came with his talent and his own world, and he will never stop to spread his wings to fly.

Question to the other members : “What kind of person he is?”

Sakurai Sho : He is a very talented person, even though he never show it off but I am sure that he is doing his best.

Aiba Masaki : Unexpectedly, he is a worrier person, he will guide with all his might.

Ninomiya Kazunari : The first time I met him, I thought that he can make us doesn’t realize that he is not around and that image never change until now.

Matsumoto Jun : He never force his idea to other people but accept and told us to try our idea, he is that kind of person.

A reporter who followed Arashi since debut era Yamasaki san, saw Ohno kun is different compared to other members when he played a role in a stage play called “Sengokopu” in 2003. “He played the role amazingly and I wonder why his great talent wasn’t recognized till now?”

“He never act different from his usual with or without camera, that’s why children love his character” (Yamasaki san)

The music critic Asou Koutaro san analyzes Ohno kun’s talent as a singer and his opinion is; “Ohno san sings the lyrics clearly and also with clear pronunciation, his voice has a soul as well. Based on that, he can connect himself with the song very well. He takes the interval properly so his voice never blur when he sings. His technique in singing is never emphasizing too much and that makes the song become so gloss.”

a/n : This is a very short article and there’s no comment from leader himself, but I can say that all of us agree with their opinion, he is the greatest idol ever, yet he is also a humble person. Ohno kun, anata wa suteki na hito desu T_T
