one. I will do my best to support their decision. If it is what they
wish for, I believe that I should do everything I could within my
limitation to support all of them who are already flying high. It
doesn’t matter what my standpoint is, my feelings are no different from
the sadness of every Tohoshinki’s fan.”

over 500,000 copies. Their latest single in Japan “Tokiwo Tomete” was released on March 24 and had just reached the top of the Oricon Charts.
