History
But have not yet released a debut single or album. Back at the time before Shonentai debuted, this group of people were called as Johnny's Shonentai. Later they were than called as Johnny's Junior.
At some point, because of his popularity despite being a Jr., Takizawa Hideaki became the leader of Johnny's Jr. After he debuted, Yamashita Tomohisa became the leader. And the next leader was Yabu Kota, which was in the group, Ya-Ya-yah. But with his debut on September 2007, the Johnny's Jr Leader now is Nakayama Yuma, who has debuted with Nakayama Yuma w/B.I.Shadow and NYC, yet still takes part in Johnny's Jr. activities.
At first there only was Johnny's Jr. with the main base being in Tokyo. But later more and more kids from the Kansai region joined the agency, so that they were seperated into Kanto Jr. and Kansai Jr..
Though KinKi Kids was the first group to debut with members from the Kansai Region in 1997, they weren't from the Kansai Jr. The first to debut from Kansai Jr. was Kanjani8 in 2004. They keep their Kansai image and work in both Kanto and Kansai region.
