Japan's Most Cheerful Group? THE JET BOY BANGERZ Graces ViVi with Poses Showcasing Outstanding Athleticism!

THE JET BOY BANGERZ, a highly talented group of artists produced by LDH, continues to accelerate at full throttle in the highly competitive era of boy groups. Unable to ignore their dazzling aura and intense energy, ViVi magazine decided to conduct an exclusive feature. Inheriting the spirit of their seniors EXILE, these 10 members, who captivate audiences one after another with their cutting-edge performances, embodied the concept of '#ThisIsTJBB' for ViVi, now in their third year since debut.

If the pre-released photos represent the 'front side of TJBB,' the adjacent cuts in the magazine are the 'back side of TJBB,' which the editorial staff highly recommends. The 10 members release such powerful energy that ViVi, upon actually witnessing their performance, hypothesized, 'Did this group gather all the most cheerful extroverts in Japan?' These photos capture another true side of them. From members utilizing their outstanding physical abilities to those showing completely unexpected expressions, readers can check the magazine to see if TJBB truly is a group of absolute extroverts.

After finishing their solo shots, members spent their waiting time in various ways—munching on bento boxes or pumping up in seemingly superhuman poses. Just as we thought a relaxed time was flowing even for these playful boys, mood-maker KOTA appeared in his costume. The other members erupted in excitement, shouting, 'Cool KOTA!' The atmosphere on set softened with a vibe resembling a lively boys' school.

For this shoot, ViVi requested the stylist to focus on a theme of 'rugged men.' The editorial team thought, 'Since everyone has a great physique, we want to challenge them with just white T-shirts.' It is a secret that the team mentally pumped their fists in triumph, declaring it a 'huge success!' the moment the 10 members, wearing white T-shirts designed to suit their individual characters, gathered in front of the camera.

During the group photo shoot, members were seen checking the monitor and confirming the balance of their lineup together. Their unique attitude of building things themselves, such as their choreography and formations, infected the ViVi team with a desire to create 'something even better!' This resulted in a series of wonderful shots that could easily have been cover photos, prompting the photographer to continuously click the shutter in sheer excitement.

This is ViVi's first special feature on TJBB, a group whose charm overflows the more you dig. Content includes basic data, an essential read-aloud self-introduction page delving into individual personalities that even TEAM JETZ (their fan name) might be hearing for the first time, selfie-style cuts that look like they jumped out of the camera roll of TAKI—acknowledged by himself and others as the most cheerful member—and a magazine version of the popular fan club project 'TJBB General Election.' The feature is packed with content that will delight both TEAM JETZ and those encountering TJBB for the first time. The July/August issue of ViVi goes on sale on May 22. Look forward to it!
