Jin Akanishi stays behind in Meisa Kuroki's dressing room and takes care of their baby (Josei Seven)

Jin Akanishi (29) left his agency at the end of February and is currently working as a freelancer. He has had a few projects like providing songs for a Korean group, but he has practically had a lot of free time since going independent, and has reportedly been drinking with his friends until late at night and goes home to a hotel room, as his relationship with wife Meisa Kuroki (25) was seemingly on the rocks.

"Meisa-san still had a lot of job offers even after her maternity leave, but Akanishi-san hasn't been working, nor taking care of their baby, and just kept getting drunk day in and day out... Because of the husband acting like this, there was a time when she would let her parents back home in Okinawa take care of their baby when she would have to leave their home for an extended period of time for filming." - (Meisa's acquanintance)

It won't be a surprise if the gap between a bum and a busy, in-demand working mom widens because of this, and they did seem to be heading towards that direction, but there were reports that Akanishi's stance has changed, probably because he witnessed how cold his wife can be. This was in late March, in a studio within the city where Meisa was filming her scenes.

"It was Meisa's shoot, but Akanishi-san was also in the studio for some reason. He was in Meisa's dressing room the whole time, taking care of the baby. He would hold the baby up high, wipe off her drool, and even feed her baby food using a spoon... He was totally an ikumen*. (laughs)" - (Showbiz staff)  
* (ikumen = man engaged in raising the child)

"They also looked like they had a lot of fun conversations during breaks from the filming."

The two were also spotted in mid-April at Minami Aoyama. 

"They must've been coming home from shopping, and Akanishi-san was carrying all the grocery and shopping bags. It seemed like he couldn't go against and face Meisa-san properly anymore..." - (witness)

When Akanishi left the agency, he commented, "I want to be more active with my international career", but it appears that he doesn't even have a manager yet, and it can't be said that he's started off his new career on a fine note.

"Akanishi-san probably can't even have a proper living right now if he breaks up with Meisa. He must've come to the conclusion to be a 'house-husband' until his own career gets back on track." - (Meisa's acquaintance)

Johnny's Jimusho president Johnny Kitagawa commented on Jin Akanishi (29) who left the agency effective last March. (Related post HERE)

Mr. Johnny insists: "I have not met with him. We didn't even talk on the phone.". On the reason why Akanishi left, Johnny said, "All he wants to do is pursue his career in the US", pointing out that this is different from Johnny's policy of giving more emphasis on their activities within Japan. He also gave his understanding that "It's just natural for one to do whatever he wants to do". Finally, Johnny joked and said, "He's a person who will succeed (in the US), as long as he maintains a good relationship with his wife (Meisa Kuroki)."

Shun Oguri and Meisa Kuroki alone in a private room at an izakaya!?

1: 禿の月φ ★ 2014/03/19 07:23:29

March 11, at an izakaya in a local residencial area. Shun Oguri (31) and wife Yu Yamada (29) live 3 minutes away from the place. 

Late at night, past 11, Oguri, together with two actor friends were in a private room in the basement where they were also able to enjoy karaoke. A woman then entered the room at the stroke of midnight. She was wearing a blue-knit hat and a red checkered flannel shirt, paired with a long skirt. This was Meisa Kuroki (25).

The store normally closes at 2 in the morning, but the people in the private room did not seem like they were going to finish any time soon. A regular customer comments: "The staff of the place tells us regular customers: 'We're about to close soon...', but they never did that to Oguri-san and Meisa-san. When I asked a frequent customer, he told me that these celebrities don't have that much time to go drinking at bars, so they receive special treatment at this place.".

At 2:40 in the morning, the store's signboard lights went out. A staff took out the trash and the shop owner started clearing up. There were also other celebrities at the bar who joined Oguri's group, but this other group went home at a little past 3. The only ones left in the place were Oguri, Meisa, and their two common friends. But these two friends went ahead at 4 in the morning, leaving Oguri and Meisa alone in the room.

The two have worked together in the two Crows Zero movies. They have reunited once again this year for Lupin III which will be shown in summer.

Oguri and Meisa who were left alone did not leave the private room for another hour. At 5 in the morning, Meisa finally left and got into a taxi. Oguri exited a few minutes later and walked home to his and Yamada's home.

The unit where Meisa went home to was entirely dark. Akanishi wasn't home, and her daughter must've been left with her parents.

Jin Akanishi dreaming of running a club in LA!? (Josei Jishin)

1: 禿の月φ ★：2014/03/11(火) 00:13:07.73 ID:???0

"There were already rumors a month ago that Akanishi-san won't be renewing his contract with his agency. It seems that there were also a number of entertainment handlers who showed interest in signing him, but he's busy preparing to join the production company of a personal acquaintance of his." - (TV station representative)

Jin Akanishi (29) has decided to leave Johnny's Entertainment after fulfilling his contract which ran up to February 28. According to music industry insiders, there's already talk that his next destination has already been decided. He's also said on his personal Facebook and Twitter accounts that he would like to partake in more activities overseas. 

"His close friends are worried about him, but Akanishi insists that he's alright because he still has some savings left. He did feel confident that he can make an impact after his US debut single back in 2011 ranked #1 on the iTunes Dance Charts, and says that he has the connections which he has established in 2006 when he studied in LA. But in reality, his single sales back then were thanks in large part to the support given to him by his fans in Japan..." - (music industry representative)

This insider continues: "It's a given that he wants to become an artist in the US, but he's also aggressively thinking about collaborating with other US artists and making music as well. Not just that, he's also revealed that he intends to run a club or a bar in LA where even his friends can hang out."

Akanishi got married to actress Meisa Kuroki (25) in February 2012. They have a daughter who is now about 1 and a half years old, but he definitely needs to consider them as well if he plans on moving to the US.

"It seems that Kuroki-san is getting irritated at how her husband doesn't seem to have a direction in life. Her husband has always insisted that he wants to live in LA, but she will be having a drama in April and has several other projects lined up after that, making her schedule packed for the year. If they do move to the US, then she will have to reconsider her career in Japan so she won't be able to agree to this plan that easily. It's either he convinces her to come with him, or they go their separate ways." - (TV station representative)

Jin Akanishi leaves Johnny's Jimusho

1: 禿の月φ ★：2014/03/02(日) 05:47:08.68 ID:???0

(Partial translation)
It was revealed on March 1st that singer Jin Akanishi (29) has left Johnny's Entertainment after fulfilling his contract up to February 28 and will not be signing an extension upon mutual consent. Johnny's said that they cannot comment on the reason as to why his contract was not renewed. One of the possible reasons is the conflicting interests between both parties. Akanishi will still pursue a career in showbiz even after leaving the agency. A different source tells Sponichi that there were no new scandals or any sort of trouble that has led to this decision.

Meisa comments:
"Almost all the books I have are for learning English. Even the ones behind these books are English learning materials."
"There's no point in just reading these once and be satisfied with it. It just makes you feel like you finished reading them for no reason. It's better to review the books that I have instead of searching for new ones! Yup, that's what I'll do."

"Starting to learn Conversational English"
"English Conversation - Let's speak"
"Collection of English conversational pieces for refined conversation"
"Japan speaking in English Q&A"
"Book to learn how American children speak"
