Kento Nakajima’s Departure Marks a Timeless Transformation, Initial Reactions Divide

Amidst this, fellow seniors from STARTO ENTERTAINMENT commented on timelesz’s member recruitment on social media. KinKi Kids’ Koichi Domoto mentioned on his Instagram Stories, “I’ve been in the entertainment industry for 32 years, I’m 45 years old. Can’t I apply for the new member position? Is double booking not allowed?” He threw this question to the timelesz side. Furthermore, KAT-TUN’s YUICHI NAKAMARU and RYUICHI UEDA also expressed their enthusiasm to participate in the audition on Instagram, generating buzz.

“Koichi-kun, this is too funny.”

“They’re making jokes while also promoting their juniors. It’s the best.”

“Seniors creating a humorous atmosphere made me feel their love for timelesz.”

However, such support from their peers seems futile as many fans are considering “graduating” (leaving the fandom) from timelesz. On social media:

“I’m not going to the tour anymore because I’m going to graduate.”

“I’ll watch the concert of the three members and then graduate. Thank you for everything until now.”

“I can only support the trio. I might quit the fan club after this tour. If I don’t win tickets, I think I’ll graduate at that time.”

“If I’m going to graduate, this is the timing. If I drag it until the tour, it might become even harder when new members join.”

Negative opinions like these are rampant. Will there be a bright future awaiting timelesz members and fans after this major reform?
