Question from Readers:
I saw the news that Kazunari Ninomiya expressed complaints about Johnny-san, but why is he bringing this up now? Nakai-san seemed to have settled down for a while, but he has started to respond again. Why is it that those from Johnny’s often struggle to make decisions? Is it that having been at the top makes it
difficult to let go? Are the complex feelings of those who have fallen from glory influencing them? Shouldn’t we forget the past and move toward the future?
Facing the Past of Johnny’s
Recently, I was captivated by the news that Kazunari Ninomiya voiced complaints against Johnny-san. It felt like his words contained not just dissatisfaction, but also the inner conflicts and thoughts he carries. For those who have been part of a large group like Johnny’s, it’s likely that past events are not easily forgotten. For instance, I recall the circle I belonged to when I was younger. While it was all fun back then, looking back after graduation, I remember the interpersonal frictions and minor troubles we had. Sometimes I regret not being more open about my feelings at that time. It seems that when you experience a fall from glory, that experience can weigh heavily on your heart.
Nakai-san’s Response is Also Intriguing
Nakai-san’s renewed responses also resonate with me. As someone adored by many fans, he must have firm opinions. Considering his position concerning former colleagues and seniors, it might be difficult for him to back down easily. We all experience moments where we think, “You don’t have to say that” to our friends, right?
Reasons for Holding on to the Past
For those who have been at the top, their glory likely becomes part of their identity. They carry the expectations of many, and that pressure and sense of responsibility may prevent them from forgetting past events. Reflecting on my days with my circle, I remember not only enjoyable memories but also some moments that made me break out in a cold sweat.
The Importance of Moving Towards the Future
Of course, forgetting the past and moving forward into the future is also important. Recently, I have been cherishing time with my family while discovering new hobbies. For instance, playing in the park with my child and sharing joyful moments brings me great happiness. If we’re too focused on past events, we might miss out on these little joys. What do you think? Have you ever been held back by past events, or do you have tips for moving toward the future? I would love to hear your thoughts in the comments, and I would be happy to think through this together with you!
