TOP Kids

TOP Kids was a Kansai Johnny's Jr. group with 3 members: Nakayama Yuma, Fujii Ryusei and Kamiyama Tomohiro. In 2007 they were put together with other Kansai Juniors and became Hey! Say! 7 WEST.

Hey! Say! 7 WEST

In Kanto Hey! Say! 7 was created. So they decided to also creat one for the Kansai Juniors with the name Hey! Say! 7 WEST. "Hey! Say!" should mean Heisei, wich explain that the membres are all born in the Heisei era. "7" would show the year this group was created, 2007. And "WEST", the different part from the Kanto group's, will show that they are from the west-side of Japan, the kansai area.

So the members of TOP Kids was added with Kotaki Nozomu, Shigeoka Daiki, Shingaki Yuto and Takemoto Shinpei.
