And 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?

[kkkkk]

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.)

[elizabeth]

both boys are cute with cute songs.. I only heard a couple but they make a cute boy pair.

[__JBM*]

they have cute songs.
teppei is SO adorable.<3
i'm quite scared of wentz english :x.

[Justalilodreamer]

TEPPEI IS THE CUTEST THING EVERRRRRRRR! ...didnt know he could sing haha

[[[Rain]]]

Teppie have the cutest smile ever!!
His eyes is round and cute! Awwww!! x]

[pro_girl]

I saw them performing Hava Rava on TV
and OMGS,they are so cuute!! <33

[sakurai_suli]

hai i'm new here

my name suli from indonesia

i really love teppei...

and i like them songs too

but i haven't heard yet hava rava song

nice too meet you all

[dr jung]

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~

[ichiban]

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.

[birthdaycakes]

Yay, I'm so glad other people have heard of them....

I haven't seen any of Teppei's dramas or movies. Are there any in particular that are really good? I was thinking of downloading Gokusen II....

Anyhow, I read somewhere that they are supposed to have something, another single, coming out before the end of the year....! So that'll be exciting.

Anyway, here are more pics....I'll admit that I am definitely more of a Teppei fan than a Wentz fan. He's just so freakin' cute!





(Haha looks like a nerd:p )

[Rosencrantz]

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.

[Mr_Kyoling]

Another Teppei fan here.
... but well, I'm too tired to write a sophisticated reply.

[mystika_d]

I love Teppei, so cute and Otani in Lovely Complex and Drangon Zakura.
Can't wait to start on Gokusen 2.

Eiji cute with is kinda light green eyes. i saw him in Gokusen, didn't relized that
it was him til later...i was wondering why he looked so american, know i now.

[LucasBunny]

Lol I know them

but I never listen to there music kekekeke

I like Teppei...but he is a bit to girly for me
he got on my nerves in Gokusen 2 because he was such a punk

[innocia]

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!

[birthdaycakes]

^I saw some of Gokusen II and I had to stop watching....just the same thing, over and over again. Bleh.

Anyway, Wentz and Teppei are making solo albums now! O.O
Teppei's is being released this 27th of June. It's called 'pieces.' Can't wait to listen to it! ....Here's the tracklist:
1. そんなあなたに
2. my brand new way
3. 思い出の欠片
4. 絵葉書
5. 君に贈る歌
6. sweet summer
7. 何処かの空
8. pieces
9. "is"
10. 赤レンガe
11. dawn
12. 雨も風も
He wrote the music and lyrics to all the songs himself too....which is pretty admirable.^^
