Kazuya Kamenashi, who joined KAT-TUN at 15 and saw the group through member departures to its disbandment, speaks openly about that period on the June 21 episode of Nippon TV's Oshare Clip. Over a year after the group ended, he says his mission was to make KAT-TUN exist as KAT-TUN.
Yuto Nakajima, his Nobuta wo Produce co-star, calls Kamenashi's idol persona inimitable. Tomohisa Yamashita, his partner in the unit Shuji to Akira, describes the difference between stage Kamenashi and the usual Kazuya-kun.
