Youtube Video Links:Sotsugyou TIME PV5Senchi PVBoku no Kimochi PVHava Rava PVAnd here are a few more pictures of them:



They formed a group sometime around 2002, but they never released anything to the public until 2004. They've become really popular across Japan for their singing abilities and good looks.

Eiji Wentz is only half-Japanese. He is part German from his father. Apparently, his father's side of the family is quite culturally German, but Wentz doesn't speak any German at all, or English for that matter. He only speaks Japanese. For proof of his really poor English skills, I refer you
to this photo, where he was asked to spell "Thursday".
Both of them are also actors as well, having been in various dramas and movies.
So has anyone heard their music? And what do you think of it?

they're definitely good lookers.
but i dont quite agree that they have 'singing abilities'. maybe its just me. (i have listened to their songs and i know they play guitars but still their music doesnt appeal to me. its too cute.)

I really like WaT. They're pretty good at singing. not amazing, but their songs have been very catchy. The album disappointed me though, the songs sound the same and so bland.. I was really glad that the duo came out with Hava Rava, which was a totally new kind of song~

i'm not a big fan of WaT but i'll admit wentz is really cute and teppei is a good actor. I have some of their songs but eh i think it's too j-country like. Funny the last pic wentz looks totally helpless like he's be kidnapped lol.

I'm majorly bumping an old thread but i don't care, because I totally fell in love with Teppei in Gokusen 2. Omg!! his smile, hair, voice everything!! gah!! I' only starting to get into WaT but it's pretty hard because they haven't released that many songs. Although I started to get into j-pop a few months ago, they look like they don't get that much publicity unlike JE bands.

I like Teppei...but he is a bit to girly for me

Wentz has really mesmerising eyes, the first thing that captures my eye when I look at his picture are his eyes XD
Teppei is cute! He has this boyish charm that attracts girls =D
Anyway, I love their new single. Especially Awaking Emotion 8/5. That song is simply WOW, Wentz did great in that song!

Teppei Koike is my favorite he is so cute. I have a huge calendar of him that i have yet to put up. I get really confused on Wentz because how does he communicate with his dad if he doesnt speak german or english?confusing

Jul 12 2007, 06:27 AM
Cool ^^ They look kyoot ~ Going to listen to them . . (^D^)v
Umm I noticed about their Astrology signs, and Astrology is like one of my hobbies,
that one is Libra and one is Capricorn. Err Libra is supposed to hate Capricorn and vice versa (O_O?).

Jul 12 2007, 08:17 AM
they're the cutest duo ever!!
love them both especially eiji!! 
and i agree with jayjo, they're not that good as singers but they're pretty boys! who can resist them? puahahaha!

Jul 18 2007, 04:31 AM
i am a
huge WaT fan.

in response to LazyAzian's comment about the zodiac signs, Teppei said that they are both very very different and the only thing similar between them is that they both love music, he said that if they were classmates they prolly won't even talk to each other at all.
anyway have u guys heard about the October concert? ♥

I guess they did!! hehe ^^
Both of them are so talented...

i have teppei "pieces" and i just love that cd... his songs are beautiful, there's no other word to describe them.
i'm happy to see this thread here!!

Aug 17 2007, 06:53 AM
ohmygoodness, i love teppei. i went through a huge teppei phase not too long ago, haha. but yeah, he's definitely adorable, and he was so cute in gokusen 2 hehe. i dont know about wentz though, and when i first saw that picture i laughed so hard...so cute..haha.
anyways, abotu their music..i actually havent heard anything from WaT, but i have heard teppei's stuff..and his voice is indeed very different..haha.

Aug 17 2007, 09:41 AM
I heard they couldn't get along or something... which might be the reason for the solo stuff... idk.
Their music is okay, and I think they're good actors. Whenever I see them in shows, Teppei seems to be kinda shy and Wentz seems really talkative lol.
little mixed girl
Aug 18 2007, 03:45 AM
i think they've broken up?
wentz is doing solo stuff.
and i think that wentz can speak english...i just have a feeling...
on another japanese show i was watching he was supposed to write a kanji correctly (one that even i can write correctly) and he couldn't do that so...
sweetsmile
Aug 18 2007, 06:18 AM
^Where did he go to school? In Japan?
Idk about english... I never heard him speak it. But I thought he was solid with Japanese...
kkkkk
Aug 18 2007, 01:52 PM
No no no. Wentz cannot speak English to save his life. There was a show i saw, i think he cannot say a number or something like that (something thats very simple)
doori
Aug 19 2007, 12:29 PM
WaT. :]
I'm not too fond of their solo albums because I think they sound much better together. xD
I've only watched one of Teppei's drama/live actions, Lovely Complex and I really liked it.
Favorite song? Probably ボクラノLove Story. :D
xandiee
Dec 12 2007, 07:24 PM
REVIVING THE THREAD!
because they don't deserve to die

Especially when the new album was just out last month, and a new single coming on January!

REALLY excited for the new single I am! XDXD
Also acting-wise, Eiji will be in the Nodame Special on February, and Teppei will star in an Autumn special drama as some blind tenor singer. ^^;
Andddd teppei will be in a 2008 movie with Tamaki Hiroshi called KIDS, the trailer is ratehr creepy coz you get to see Teppei bloody and dying.. >_<
sweetsmile
Dec 12 2007, 09:18 PM
^ really? Eiji in the Nodame special?? Now I really can't wait to see it lol
I almost forgot about these two boys because it's been such a long time since I've seen them on my comp screen haha
xandiee
Dec 13 2007, 04:08 AM
