Fuma Kikuchi Saves Sexy Zone Amid Nakajima Kento’s Withdrawal and Romance Reports

Fans of “Sexy Zone” (hereafter referred to as Sekzo) are shaken.

Amidst the announcement of the departure of the member Kenjiro Nakajima from the group on January 8, on the 17th, it was reported in “NEWS Post Seven” that he is in a relationship with Reina Washio, a former member of “E-girls.” Nakajima addressed the situation through the agency.

“Washio-san is an artist whom I respect and consider as one of my friends.”

 

He also expressed his own views on relationships, saying, 

“There is no such thing as friendship between a man and a woman.” 

Fans are said to be dismayed by this love affair report and his comments.

Furthermore, there are suspicions arising that Nakajima has been engaging in the most disliked behavior by fans, commonly referred to as hinting at a romantic relationship. In the March 2021 issue of the idol magazine Myojo, where Nakajima has a series titled “Kimi to Kurasaretara” In the article, Nakajima writes, 

“I have something I want to see with you someday. It’s the beautiful scenery of Vatican City. I’ve decided to go there with a special person someday. Someone I truly feel is ‘the one.’ So, in essence, this is an invitation for a honeymoon. I wonder if you, being oblivious, will notice?”

There is a passage that says, “There’s something I want to see with you someday. It’s the beautiful scenery of Vatican City. I’ve decided to go there with a special person someday. Someone I truly feel is the one.” So, in essence, this is an invitation for a honeymoon. I wonder if you, being oblivious, will notice?’ Many fans were delighted, considering it as a unique aspect of Nakajima’s charming prince character. However, it turns out that the ‘Vatican City’ mentioned was the destination reported in NEWS Post Seven where the two were said to have traveled.

“The departure of Nakajima, who has been considered a role model for idols, has surprised us. Even before this, Marius Yo left, and the group had to change its name; fans never expected Nakajima to leave ‘Sexy Zone.’

Moreover, there are reports of a romantic relationship. Until now, there have been episodes where he declined to share his email address, even when asked by classmates, citing his idol status. This makes it all the more perplexing why he, who has maintained such a stance, would do such a thing.” (Idol Magazine Writer)
