Speaking of the promising unit of Kansai Johnny's Jr. Naniwa Boys, right?
The seven members of Naniwa Boys, who used to belong to different units.
Each of us already had a member color.
The members' colors were changed when Naniwa Dans was formed.
This issue will focus on the reasons why the new member colors were assigned to each member, before and after the member color change.
Summary of Naniwa Men's member colors before and after the change
First, let's take a look at a table showing before and after the change in member colors for each of the Naniwa boys.
Before change | After change | |
Daigo Nishihata | orange | red |
Ryusei Ohnishi | red | orange |
Shunsuke Michieda | red | pink |
Kyohei Takahashi | green | purple |
Nagao Kensha | yellow | yellow |
Joichiro Fujiwara | red | green |
Kazuya Ohashi | pink | green |
As you can see, they are quite covered before the member color change.
We have three reds and way too many warm colors!
As you all know, we are a group of Japanese
Needless to say, the member color red is the center.

A group of center-class members, Naniwa Danshi!
I have a feeling it's going to be a big one!
Affiliation and member color of each member before Naniwa Boys

An informal unit, so it is a spontaneous group.

How to determine the new member color for each Naniwa Men member
To maintain balance within the group with the formation of Naniwa Boys
They were told by the office to decide (change) the member's color.
However, Daigo Nishihata is red and Shunsuke Michieda is pink, as specified by the office.
The rest of the remaining members are.competitive bickeringHe decided to do so because he was a member of the "K" team.
Kyohei Takahashi had always wanted blue, but it turned out to be purple! Too bad.
Member colors are a point that even the members themselves are quite particular about, aren't they?
About Naniwa Otoko's member colors Conclusion
There is history in the member colors.
I can't believe the office told us to decide on the members' colors well before their debut.
I think they're putting a lot of effort into it as an office...
Maybe a group on the verge of their debut! I am looking forward to it.
It would be very uncomfortable to change the member color that you originally have.
The day will come when Naniwa Otoko's member colors will fit in better and better.
