“Handsome Voice Actor, Eguchi Takuya and Beautiful ex-BanG Dream! Voice Actress Secretly Living Together”

As reported on June 25th 2020 by gossip publication, FRIDAY, Eguchi Takuya is currently living with a woman. It is suspected to be ex-voice actress, Endo Yurika.

In response to the article he updated his blog with a post.

“ABOUT THE ARTICLE”

“Even though my company denied various interviews with that weekly magazine, they still went ahead and ran the article lol“

“…which means, I believe I need to share my opinion on the matter.”

“In the case that in the future I have a partner that I have the option to marry, I believe I myself would like to make that official announcement.”

“For me, there may be some people that think “Do you need to even make that statement?”, but there may be some people that would rather hear it from a weekly publication that will run their own articles as they please because it would be faster than hearing it from me directly.”

“What I originally thought was, people would take me as I am, as “Eguchi Takuya the entertainer”. As such, I want to be someone that lives an extraordinary life without sharing any private details. Then again, the truth is there are people out there that don’t care about that. This is the era we live in.”

“That’s why, even if I share the bare minimum, I think it would be better for people to judge that information for themselves.”

“These past few months, there have been strange vehicles and people chasing after me, so while I feel more or less better about my true colours as a gloomy person have been revealed, this is not the kind of life I signed up for when I aimed to be a voice actor…is what I’ve been thinking. I believe this is a cause of mental anguish for anyone…and thinking about it in any normal circumstance it’s frightening. Well, I’m not going to cry myself to sleep over it. It’s the system as it is. Going forward this [story] will be a matter for the industry [to deal with].”

“Nonetheless, I love this job and I wouldn’t change it. For everyone involved [in this industry] they’re all so kind, and I think they love their jobs too. I just don’t want to give in to an irrational system that makes me feel stressed.”

“This blog is here for me to coexist with this kind of irrationality since I want to continue being an actor until the day I die.”

“If you’ve read this far, thank you very much!”

“I will devote myself to giving it my all to continue to deliver the best entertainment.”

(I think many of us have thought about the topic of the entertainment industry and the right to privacy, not just for Japanese entertainers but for people around the world.

I think Egu has made some really good points in his blog post, and I feel you can really get where he’s coming from when he talks about wanting to share his own information rather than have you hear or read it from other platforms because it can always be skewed.)

When I think about if I weren’t in Kisumai… I get shivers. I think I probably wouldn’t be in the entertainment industry. That’s how indispensable the existence of Kisumai is in my life. It’s like my last name. To begin with, because I don’t get called by my first name, I am “Kisumai’s Nikaido”. Having met the six of them is the biggest thing in my life. If I hadn’t met them, I wouldn’t even be at the start line. To have met them and to debut, now little by little, we’ve become able to show our characters. In the past, while we were often told, “7 people is a big number, it must be tough”. I thought, “So there are people who don’t think of how with 7 people are 7 personalities, which is a strength”.

To me, Kisumai is family, brothers-in-arms, and rivals. I think that if the members become too comfortable with each other, then our growth will stop. When we’re fighting on the same field, of course, we’ll hold a sense of rivalry. Since right now, the external field that we’re fighting in is different for the 7 of us, we’ll grow there. And every time we return to Kisumai, the group will become bigger. That’s the sense I have. I think that it won’t work if just one person works hard. It would be best if all 7 are well-balanced and keep on fighting. I think that if it were Kisumai, we’d be able to do that. Because you see, my members are really amazing!

To me, Kisumai is home. Whether it’s solo work or group work, I’m doing it while thinking of it as “Kisumai’s work/job”. Even though I might not really feel it when the 7 of us are together; when I’m doing solo work might be when I feel the group’s importance. Especially - while there aren’t many such instances - when I appear on variety shows by myself, there will be times when I think how it’d be nice if the members were here with me. Of course, I also feel the responsibility that I must work hard to pull that weight too.

​For me, other than these 6, there’s no one else I would consider my brothers in arms. While there are times when we’ll be rowdy in the dressing rooms and times when we aren’t, both are good. I’ve been taught by senpais, “Because there are waves in the group, even if you sink, it’s fine to think that those times happen too”. From here on, no matter what happens, we are comrades so we’ll be fine. Our ability to be united when we are away* is amazing. When I glance beside me, the members are lined up naturally. Like, “Alright, let’s go”. I really like that feeling. Now, “away” places have really decreased [for us]; I think that’s due to the growth of the group. Like during concert MC, to continue on talking even when no one is amused. Or when we digress too much. There are times when I feel nostalgic about those times. I liked that it was because we were inexperienced that the 7 of us will stretch out our hands and do our best. But I feel that it was from there that each of our individual personalities came out and we became who we are today.

Even though it’s our 6th year since debut, it still feels like we aren’t completely made yet. There are still many things that make me feel like we still have a long way to go. But even if you work hard by yourself, it won’t help. That’s why I feel that a group is interesting. Although compared to when we first debut, I think we’ve probably become more “broad”. The horizons for various jobs have broadened. Lately, I’ve felt that we’ve surprisingly become more known to the elderly. Even though being a 7 person group may be seen as a big number, when we perform on roller skates, it might be the number that shines the best. That’s what I think. I’ll occasionally watch Hikaru Genji-san’s performance footages, they are really well-balanced. Because I think that roller skates is the best weapon that we’ve received from Johnny-san, I’d like us to remain conscious of that and treasure it. So in that sense too, of course, “7” is an extremely important number. I think that we’d be troubled if any one (member) were to go away.

​Because everyone in Kisumai is from the same generation, we can talk about the same things. As expected, it’s fun. We’re able to just be ourselves, we don’t need to think about anything, just like friends. While we are coworkers, it’s not stiff/formal. If our schedules match, we’ll hang out together in private. When we hang out, members’ friends will be there too. It feels like your regular everyday. That’s why we appear just as we are normally. If I were asked, what is Kisumai’s weapon? It’d be how we get to sing cool songs; there might also be how surprisingly, everyone looks younger than their actual age LOL; there’s also how we give off the atmosphere of being friends.
