KAT-TUN without Jin…Here’s what Jin wrote in his Manual

“Hello everyone it’s been long, I am Akanishi.

After finishing LA’s live,
I am now preparing for the America’s tour
Am making new songs now.

I think everyone probably already know
This time round, I am proceeding to go solo.

If there is something to be said, it is that the direction is different.
Definitely not because I hate the members,
or that there are conflicts in our relationships or anything like that.
Everyone please be rest assured (laughs)
I like everyone.

About KAT-TUN, regarding small or big matters,
I have given a lot of trouble up till now,
sorry, thank you.
And it has been fun ( I have been happy ) *can be both ways

No matter what, allowing the supporting fans
to feel confused about these,
I am deeply sorry,
sorry.

Well, everyone.
Although the atmosphere seems like everything is ending
But this does not mean I will stop activities,
Basically everything up still now is not going to change.

Singing, Acting and dance would all continue.

Just that to myself, it is like the concert in LA
If in the future, i could have activities in America, Asia, Europe etc
all sort of countries, it would be good.
Of course, I would want to have more activities in Japan as well, I humbly ask for your care and favour.

Please take care of me. (Yoroshiku Onegaishimasu)

Akanishi Jin”

Johnny Kitagawa said: “I’m only thinking about Jin’s success in the U.S. It’s not good if I spoil him by telling him ‘come back to KAT-TUN if you fail in the U.S.’  All I can do for him is to support whatever he wants to do in the U.S.”

Kitagawa also stated that there is no need to worry about KAT-TUN’s disbandment.
