Naniwa Danshi’s Official Instagram Leaks Secret Meeting with Sexy Actress, Raising Concerns Over New Company’s Management

The newly established talent management company, STARTO ENTERTAINMENT, responsible for managing talents from the former Johnny’s office (now SMILE-UP.), finally began full-fledged operations in April.

However, just before its launch, the official social media accounts of the affiliated groups caused a stir among fans by making a series of accidental posts and follows. “The staff’s negligence is showing,” some fans commented critically.

 

The first incident that surprised fans occurred on the night of March 26 when the official Instagram account of “Naniwa Danshi” posted a picture of a snack called “Nagoya Ogura Toast Langue de Chat” from Aichi Prefecture, Nagoya, on their stories.

The image was accompanied by comments such as “Yuchan brought me a souvenir!” “Thank you!!” “Sorry for posting after coming home! lol” The photo didn’t show any of the Naniwa Danshi members.

“Apparently, that particular story was quickly deleted, leaving fans even more perplexed. Fans wondered if one of the members mistakenly posted a photo intended for their private account, or if it was a staff error… the social media sphere was buzzing with confusion,” says an entertainment writer.

Naturally, fans focused their questions on the name “Yuchan.” Among the names that circulated, the one that stood out was that of former adult actress Yua Mikami.

This is because, last September 7, “Shukan Bunshun” magazine scooped that Mikami and Na-niwa Danshi’s Kentaro Nagao were in a close relationship. The magazine caught Nagao entering and leaving Mikami’s apartment, reporting it as a sleepover romance.

“Some fans questioned whether the ‘Yuchan’ mentioned in Naniwa Danshi’s story was a nickname derived from ‘Yua.’ Some even speculated that the disappeared story might have been intended to be posted by Nagao on his secret account. Due to unfounded suspicions directed at the members, the agency and Naniwa Danshi’s side probably felt the need to contain the situation,” concludes the writer.
