Perhaps we can all find articles about fortune telling for Kinki Kids here.

This article was from last year.

Article: August 8, 2005

Fortune telling is not only popular in Taiwan entertainment circles but also in Japan. Recently, Kinki Kids at one of its Domoto Brothers has invited a fortune teller and she concluded that Tsuyoshi would marry at 32 and would marry a rich wife. At once, Koichi felt envious and said, "Wah! Going into a rich family!"

Koichi did not expect the fortune teller would say to him, "You would marry only at 35 and it would be with a very common girl." At that point, Koichi felt like he had cold water poured over him but the fans were all happy because everyone would stand a chance. (:lol: :lol: :lol: very true!!! )

Even though Tsuyoshi would join a rich family, it was not very desirable because the future father in law would in international construction business and would want Tsuyoshi to retire from the entertainment field and not be a comedian on screen. Tsuyoshi looked very disappointed on the spot.

Actually in 1999, a book called Domoto model was published regarding the predictions of the two.

It was said that from 2001 onwards, Koichi would have a big change in his performance work for five years. In the end, two years later, Koichi worked on his SHOCK and it became his signature piece.

The fortune teller also predicted that from 2002 onwards, he would have a lot of success in drawing and music. In the end, Tsuyoshi did publish a drawing/essay book and his solo album.

As for the most concerned subject about their emotional world, the fortune teller said that Tsuyoshi's partner would be someone close to him. The specialty of this person is that her hair on both sides are very fluffy and curly, very pretty. As to who it is, the fans have to guess.

Aslo in 2001 in the Asian tour, Hong Kong fortune teller met with them and he said that Koichi is more suitable with a girl who is more plump with big eyes. Tsuyoshi is more suitable for thin people. These two artists when together will be able to help each other in their work.

Haha yep I read about this article on some chinese BBS before and fans were saying that the "plump with big eyes" person that Koichi would marry was obviously Tsuyo chan (no offence to the tsuyo and fans!!).

Also, the "thin" person Tsuyo would marry was Kochan.. I was LOL when I read that. Quite true though. Can see the extent of fans who support KK love go to. :D

Thanks again, Kimurafan for the translation!

:clap2: :clap2: :clap2: :clap2: This is so cool! Koichi and I are a match, a PERFECT match!!! Right down to everything the fortune teller said in every prediction!! :lol: :lol: :lol:

duotiger, I have a suspicion that he would go for you!!! hahaha...

Honest, I have never read this article before when I made the comment about him liking plump dancers in his solo concert a few months back when I first saw it.

oivay! perhaps you should raise a placard at his concert and say, "I am plump, the way you like it."

ahhahahahhahahahah :laughing1: :laughing2: :laughing1:

duotiger, I want to be invited to the wedding if you get him!!!

This is not really predictions or fortune telling but I want to show how Kinki Kids are related to the great men and women of this world in history with their birth dates.

Look at how many of them are politicians and leaders, apart from actors/singers.

I want to bring you to the attention of some of the great thinkers born on Jan. 1

“If I had to choose between betraying my country and betraying my friend, I hope I should have the guts to betray my country.”
E. M. Forster quotes (English Novelist and Essayist, 1879-1970)

Doesn't that sound like Koichi?

“The cure for crime is not the electric chair, but the high chair.”
J. Edgar Hoover quotes (American director of the F.B.I. (1924-1972). 1895-1972)

Do you girls know that J. Edgar Hoover is THE one who started the FBI in the USA? A great thinker!

“An artist's only concern is to shoot for some kind of perfection, and on his own terms, not anyone else's.”
VASHTEN J. D. Salinger quotes (American Novelist and short story Writer, b.1919)

Way to go! I bet Koichi has this urge too!

Some quotes by famous people born on the same day.

I was wondering....which ones and how many licenses does Koichi have now? I "losted" count :)

and also while I'm watching it hass Koichi even seen/watched/likes Miami Vice? MV has ev erything Koichi likes.. Ferrarris and women and High Fashion so I thought hed like it!

I think he has a boating licence... Drivers... And Motorcycle... err... If I remember correctly that is. (could be wrong)
And I've really never heard of him liking Miami Vice but it's always a possiblity.
Hope I helped a little. :/ ^-^

This site says Koichi has these licenses: general driver's and motorcycle license, electric saw user, ship driver's license (Grade 4), building machine of small vehicles (shovel car), umpire of softball (Type 3), A& B class car driver license in Japan and umpire of the 'Tug of War' (Type A).

... Koichi has had too much time on his hands I say.

These are his licences. I think many of them were acquired while he was hosting Japan Walker program where he had to complete a challenge. He even had a babysitter or pre school licence too because in one episode, he was sent to a preschool to look after kids for a whole day. These below are mostly light vehicles, heavy vehicles, motorcycle, food hygiene safety standards, motorboats of different class, mechanic plus umpire licences as Ashes Wishes wrote.

:clap2: Whoa!!! Thank you, Kimurafan! A lot of this stuff I didn't even know...I'm embarrassed to say since I am an expert after all....(i'm kidding! im kidding! i'm not really an expert!)

Biohazard 2?! Man, if it is also translated as Resident Evil 2...damn! that game is HARD!!! I tried playing myself and I couldn't, I just couldn't. Too hard.

And he's the super sex maniac?! :arr: interesting...i like this. :blush:

:lol: My bedroom is my favorite place too!!! It's covered with pictures of him!!! Of course!!! :clap2:

Umm, umm *tugging from the sleeve.* I think 猫的 means cat -like. Now I would be interested what cat-like things Koichi brings along~
But I'm really not sure. My japanese reading skills are one of 3 years old japanese. T_____T;

With that face you wouldn't believe it. xP

Awww. ó___ò Scars.

Adorable, SIMPLY ADORABLE. >3<

Remember to take them off from the walls if you get Koichi some day there with you. Poor man will get traumatized and scared of you when sees all those pictures; expecially those that fangirls shouldn't have and you have paid half of your soul to get [I'm sure you have pictures like that somewhere hidden].

ah kewl! sounds like the koichinator's been a busy lil bee! LOL thanks, guys!

Koichi got the licenses through his Pikaichi segment, which originated from Gyu!
The whole point of the segment was for his character to mug for as many unconventional licenses as possible and try to pass the tests.

Ah, this is pure gossip but I can't pass not posting it.

I understand that Tsuyoshi Domoto's family is very rich. I have found more rumors about it. The father is in capital assets business and their name is revered in Nara. There house is big with basketball equipment etc....

When JE started a record company, half of the income came from Kinki Kids' album sales and half from Tsuyoshi Domoto's family.

The richest JE artists is not Tsuyoshi's though. The richest is Sho Sakura's family. SHO is from Arashi. His mother is the daughter of the one who runs the top 3 conglomerates in Japan and his father is a president of another corporate. (I could understand the father's wealth but what does the mother's parents wealth has to do with their own family wealth, unless she inherits everything! :faint: )

The second richest is Junichi Okada's family. His father is a top director in the government.

Koichi's family is somewhere outside the top 20's, his father running some sort of hospital? Perhaps Elysia could add to this.

Once Koichi went to Tsuyoshi house and Tsuyoshi said that Tsuyoshi papa looks like a turtle and when Koichi saw him, he laughed and agreed heartily. The fathers of these two kids are said to get along well with each other.

Tsuyoshi's mother is said to have separated from Tsuyoshi's father.

Ah....gossips!!!

ah, yes, I also forgot one small bit of gossip - that Tsuyoshi's father has great influence on NHK. :think:

Edit: Wrong....It is Junichi's father, who is a party head of a certain political party that has a lot of influence on NHK... :faint:

:hair: Eeks! Told you I'm bad with rumours... but Domoto Daddy does hold a pretty respectable position in his company... don't think it's a hospital though.

There was an article on Domoto Daddy last year, talking about him assuming the post of being the manager? of Sumitomo life insurance sales dept or something like that. Anyway, Domoto Daddy should be around 57-8 years old. I always heard the rumour that he's really tall, towering at 185cm... looks like Koichi never inherit his daddy's height genes. :lol:

elysia

thanks for the info ...
wow... sugoi family in JE ne'

okay I have a question about KK?
I've heard that KK were to be debut with three members instead of two

the third domoto decline to join KK b'cos he wants to pursue his study
but when his study was over. he return to Japan, changed his name and enter Jpop world
the third domoto at this moment is one of the top Jpop singer
I can't remember is he is in a group or a solo artist

anybody, dare ka?

This I understand is the Johnny's Family Club address since April 2006.

Attention: Artist/Group



Ororo, there's a third Domoto? :faint:

kimurafan
:faint: along with you too

that's what I've heard a 3rd Domoto....
so he should have the same year of birth 1979

There is just a one line mention here. But I need Tsu fans to verify this out of curiousity.

MILK magazine in HK mentioned that Tsuyoshi has twice changed his thick brows to look like tadpole eyebrows.

:laughing1: :laughing2:

Anyone can post some photos to prove or disprove? :lol:

I was wondering, if my dreams ever came rue, and Koichi came to Memphis to tape some segment for Domoto Kyoudai and I ran into him and I would try talking to him, how would he treat me if I controlled myself(the hardest thing I will ever do LOL) and acted normal if I tried to approach him?

LMAO they have a Wallace and Grommit section to Sumitomo life webpage hahaha!! http://www.sumitomolife.co.jp/ wonder if Koichikins is a fan?

http://www.sumitomolife.co.jp/news/050314.pdf I did a search about "domoto" and found this. dk what it is yet ass I am on dial up and its gunna take a half hour to dl the japanese fonts for adobe(hate adobe!!) LOL

営業人事部審議役 法人総括部審議役 堂本 光生 is what I found in that blasted .pdf what does it say?

Hime, that is a document about personnel changes in a certain insurance company. Not sure if Koichi's father is in there.

This is scary... why are we checking up on Koichi's daddy?!? But yes that's him... Domoto Mitsuo... I refuse to deal with technical terms like that, so I'm not translating... LOL! In any case, we just have to know Domoto Daddy is holding a pretty respectable position in the company. :ph43r:

LOL welp it was 3 am I have insomnia bored out of my mind(LOL really!) I had nothing else to do i was wondering wot he looked like see if he looked anything like Koichi and besides I didnt even know where his dad worked before lol

he doesn't look like his daddy... I hear tho that he looks much like his mommy... I've never seen a pic of her tho...
((dumb to ask but has anyone ever seen her?))

what are the dirty jokes Koichi tells? I want to know!

are they that bad that no one will tell me?

I don't know in which topic i can ask this question so i will try here :

Some time ago i download a video of kinki kids from the KinKi Kiss 2 Single Selection DVD. The filename is "Kagami No Naka No Rokugatsu", i've seen another short version of this video called"Bonnie Butterfly" (i suppose because the song is used in the video).

As far as i understand, Koichi comes from the past through a mirror which is in Tsuyoshi's room. The drama seems to be on different periods (since Tsuyoshi has 3 different hairstyles !!!) and in the end, Koichi go back to his own time...

Do you know this video ? can someone explain me the story ? (even a brief summary would be good !!!)

AFAIK Koichi is a guardian angel and Tsuyoshi apparently is in the yakuza and when the video opens it looks as if he has been beaten up cos he is washing the wound, where Koichi sees him and pulls him thru the mirror,and in the story the mirror seems to only "open" to those who reallhy need it cos if it opened to everyone therede be a lot more traveling LOL anyway in the video koichi pulls tsu thru the mirror (koichi again with the mirror thing LOL) where he intros tsu to his family and friends and he looks quizzically at tsu cos he doesnt seem to be enjoying himself. and he talks to tsu and then tsu then starts pllaying catch swsith Koi and then they talk more on the porch and then tsu realizes he has to go back to fix gthings where he is and koi says he has things to do where he is so tsu gies back. now for kokoro etc. tsu is back at home enjoying cup noodles when he seent on the news where members of his own gang have escaped and now he feels he needs to go confront them. when he confronts them he notices that kois bracelet he was givien is on the yakuza boss's wrist and he knows that koi is in his own time and after he is pushed around by the henchman he decides to go fix things and he is givent strength from knowing koi so he gathers his strenghth and then grabs the bracelet from the mob boss and then not even knowing where koi is decides to return the bracelt to koi. good fortune intervenes when t is hiding from the mob he finds k in the storage shed where he is being held. t unties k and then they runout of the storehouse and they steal a car to outrun the mob. k also has stolen some $ from the mob(cann someone tell me where it came from? LOL) and then they drive off and then they reach the ocean and then they throw the $ away nd drive off together and while they are driving off t gets a phone call on his cell >>>enf of kokoro<<<<beginning of hakka candy<<<<this story opens where t is going to see his ailing father. he goes to have a talk with his father idk wot they are talking about but apparently his dad had a problem with a girl he once knew a long time ago so t goes thru the mirror to fix it. he does and while he is over there fixing his dads problem K tries to go and help him but the mirror is inaccessible to him at this time so he is stuck, alone in this time and he can feel t's lonliness which led him to the mob and he is feeling real lonliness being apart from his family and no one he knows is here. his older self comes to tell him that this is something t has to do for himself. also he had to be made to feel the lonliness so he can understand ppl better. then t comes back thru the mirror and k seems to be asking how it went and T says how it went>>>end of hakka candy<<<<Bonnie butterfly>>>>>>>this opens with T narrating (idk a lot ofg Japanese yet so idk wots being said LOL) so this opens with t narrarting and then they are playing catch with a bball back at t's time.and it seems as if they are reliving whats happened between them and discussing a plan for t's life.( this is only the story as I ,now it Im typing a lot so dont flame me if its wrong LOL) they return the basebal and mitt from the kids they borrowed the from and they point to K and say youre from the newspaper and then they realize ppl are looking for k and so they decide k has to go home s o as to aviod the press and maybe being tested on lol and they hail a taxi and then they get into it and talk about their lives some more and then they arrive at the mirror and there are hundreds of ppl waiting to take pics and talk to K and he doesnt know what to do so T takes him by the arm and goes in front of him and takes him to the mirror and realizing that someone would try to get thru the mirror to bring back K and others he does the only thing he can do .. he take his baseball out of his backpack and then hurls it at the mirror thus cutting access off from the present and the past then he says something else at the end and the video(s) some(s) to an and


**** I give it 4 stars cos it wass a great concept for a video !!

Whow ! i understand better this video now ! :bow: Thx a lot !

I suppose nobody have seen an english subtitle version of this video somewhere ? I really wish that they do more DVD with english subtitles in Japan (Endless shock would be great :blowup: but i'm dreaming :( )

so are we both Lodoss and to have it released in America where I can have something to play it on would be a plus too LOL cos I can't afford anything fancy

so am I.....

hahaha..... nice summary on that three PV hehe

yeah I wonder too where that money come from heheh

this is the 2nd time tsu as yakuza and koi stealing money... the other PV is hey minna genki kai but in that PV koi and tsu is enemy instead of friend....

dun ya think tsu makes cute yakuza... he is the chibi boss surround by huge follower... so cuuuuuuuuuteee.... hehehe

Just to add to Hime's synopsis:

I don't think Koichi was a guardian angel.. He looked as surprised as Tsu when they saw each other in the mirror.. also, from what he said, seems like he's just a normal guy living in 1970 (in real life the two of them actually weren't even born yet!! :lol:)

The voiceover while the two of them were poring over "cool stuff from the future":
Koichi: Why is it that even though suddenly someone came from the future, I didn't feel that it's strange, and not the least bit surprised.. In fact, it feels like it's a pleasant reunion. What does this meeting mean to us? Listening to this guy who travelled through time, I believe that there's a wonderful future waiting.
Tsuyoshi: In that forgotten, nostalgic era, I thought, "Why did I travel back in time?"
(not too sure about the context of this part, though.. whether he thought about it after he went back to his own time, or during his stay at Koichi's)

The Kokoro ni yume wo, kimi ni wa ai wo part:
I think Koichi got beaten up because the thugs thought that he saw them during the robbery.. (Koichi told them "I didn't see anything" before being left in the shed).
The TV clip that Tsuyoshi saw in his room was reporting some sort of a robbery.. and his comment was "What, they went ahead and did it?"
So I guess that would explain how Koichi know that there's a stash of money in that shed.. :P

When Tsuyoshi went to talk to the mobster boss, he actually said he wanted to quit.. which then led the boss to ask his henchmen to rough him a bit.


The part where Tsuyoshi went to see his ailing dad:
Apparently they didn't have a good relationship.. Tsuyoshi's dad was glad to see him after so many years' absence.
Tsuyoshi told him that he hated his dad because he was cold to Tsuyoshi's mother.
His dad told him that on the day he & Tsuyoshi's mother-to-be first went on a date to the movie, on the way home he had actually wanted to tell her how beautiful she looked that day, but in the end he didn't say anything.
Tsuyoshi's dad expressed his regret that he'd never said anything nice to his wife in his lifetime. Then Tsuyoshi ran out and through the mirror went back to the point where his future parents just split after their date, to tell his "mother" that his "father" actually wanted to say that she looked especially beautiful that day.

In the meantime, Koichi was trying to find Tsuyoshi after the latter dashed out of his house without a word, and I guess he didn't quite think of the mirror..
He seemed a bit overwhelmed by the stuff around him, the "future" that he came to see.
Then he met his "current" self -- the Koichi who's supposedly 33yrs older in 2003 (I can't believe they put such an ojisan as "older Koichi"!! :laughing1: and that Tsuyoshi, on his return, actually told Koichi that that ossan looked like him.. :laugh: )
The ossan Koichi said that the future is in many ways different than the future that one imagines.
Couldn't quite catch what he said next, but the parting words were "the feeling you have for others will never change".

Then Tsuyoshi came back, and asked if Koichi wanted to see where his house used to be.
They went there (Tsuyoshi giving directions). When they reached the place, Koichi looked a bit wistful that it's now turned into a park.
While playing catch ball:
Koichi: 33 yrs ago we also played catch ball like this, didn't we?
Tsuyoshi: yeah.. and it was a day like this too.
Koichi: Isn't that strange?
Tsuyoshi: By the way, why did you come to the future?
Koichi: After you left, something in me changed.. the way I see myself.. I wondered if I could become a carefree person like you.. cannot live as a coward.
Tsuyoshi: I'm not as cool as you thought I am, you know.
Koichi: And then, no matter what, I want to see the future..
Tsuyoshi: And then you came through that mirror?
Koichi: Then I saw a robbery (smile)
Tsuyoshi: Well.. Even though I told you many things, actually I'm the one who ran away from reality... but then I realized that running away means completely forgetting the things that you hold dear..
Koichi: You're talking about your dad?
Tsuyoshi: Yes.. when I was at your house, I finally understood what a family means.
Koichi: Even though it was just an ordinary thing?
Tsuyoshi: Even from something so common, I ran away.
Koichi: Well, both of us learnt something then.
Tsuyoshi: Yes.
