Popular Enka singer Takuya Nakazawa: “Two-Timing Muddy Trial” Behind Declaration of Relationship

Although Nakazawa had been in a dating relationship with Ms. A, during that period he had developed a male-female relationship with Ai Nishida, and when Ms. A found out about it, he unilaterally ended the relationship, which led to the lawsuit. The two sides have different stories–>

We had hoped to tell you this in our own time,” he said. It is unfortunate that the announcement came amidst all sorts of speculation, but we are serious about our relationship.”

He was the first of the “7th generation of enka” singers, a group of handsome singers in their 20s, to become popular in the enka world. He is one of the most promising newcomers.

She is with Ai Nishida, a beautiful enka singer seven years older than her, who at the time of her debut was the talk of the town for her I-cup swimsuit gravure. The marriage of two enka singers was expected to be celebrated by the entire industry, but in fact, Nakazawa had a big “problem” behind his dating declaration. A music industry insider revealed, “Nakazawa had a big “problem” behind her dating declaration.

Nakazawa’s love affair with a senior singer became known to another woman to whom he was engaged at the time, and she accused him on Twitter. In addition, a line exchange between Nakazawa and the senior singer with whom he had fallen in love that suggested a sexual relationship was also leaked.

When I wrote “various speculations” in the dating announcement, I probably meant this. However, the term “speculation” is a bit wild.

First, let me briefly touch on Nakazawa’s background.

Most enka singers are exposed to enka from an early age, but in Nakazawa’s case, he was a high school student with a promising future in formula car racing. He gave up his dream of becoming a racing driver due to financial difficulties, but then he encountered singing and participated in “NHK Nodo Jiman”. He sang “Sakura (solo)” by Naotaro Moriyama and won the championship.

This led to her debut in January 2017. Since then, with her sweet mask and singing voice, she gained popularity not only among middle-aged and older people but also among women of her generation, and was also called “the prince of the enka world. On the other hand, he was said to have a bad habit with women, and rumors of a “trial” were circulating behind the scenes.

The “trial” refers to a lawsuit filed last year by Ms. A, a woman Nakazawa met at an event, alleging that she and Nakazawa were “engaged” but that the engagement was eventually broken and that she suffered emotional distress as a result of being played around with.

According to the complaint, Nakazawa met Ms. A around 2018 and developed a relationship with her. The relationship was long-distance, but Ms. A later became pregnant. However, Nakazawa, who had just made his debut, was concerned about his financial ability to support the child and asked Ms. A to have an abortion, to which Ms. A agreed (eventually, the pregnancy was switched to a miscarriage because it was discovered on the scheduled day of the abortion surgery). It is also stated that Nakazawa then visited Ms. A’s parents’ home and clearly expressed his intention to marry her to her mother….

According to the complaint, the two began dating on the premise of marriage. In the court record, it is also stated that the president of Nakazawa’s agency consulted a fortune teller about an auspicious day for them to live together and enter the registry, and it is not surprising that Ms. A thinks she is engaged to Nakazawa.
