bmsgOn March 27, BMSG held a YT stream for the boys in the 2006-07 school year who graduated from high school.
The line-up included:
RYUHEI (BE:FIRST)
edhiii boi
KANON (BMSG Trainees)
GOICHI (BMSG Trainees)
KEI (BMSG Trainees)
SKY-HI was the MC for the special occasion!
The video is available until April 26! Feel free to follow along!
Note 1: The following summary is not organized in the same order as the video. Some info and trivia are in the boys' respective sections when they share their stories related to graduation / graduating; followed by messages to the boys from BMSG Artists; and ending with boss's message to the graduates.
Note 2: I was sharing this in the server so nicknames below:
Ryuhei: RyuRyu, Ryu
edhiii boi: eddy
Kanon: Non, Nonnie
Goichi: Gonyan
Kei: KeiKei
zast: THE FIRST
Kanon and KeiKei - confirmed going to university
KeiKei dyed his hair now that he graduated!
Ryuhei has been going to eikaiwa (English conversation) every day with the world tour coming up!
It's the first time Gonyan's in this kind of YT livestream, so he said his hands are sweaty
(Ryuhei asked him if he needs a handkerchief, not that he has any)
Goichi says he will be an adult that has a handkerchief on him!
eddy feels like his mental age stayed at 3 years old. It still hasn't sunk in for him that he has graduated, he feels like he's still in summer vacation mode. He's looking forward to the graduation party today!
eddy said three months before his high school graduation, he felt like everyone around him was talking to him about graduation.
🌞: That's because you barely made it to graduation!
🦀: You can't say that!!! x3
Kanon had a lesson until very late into the night before the day of his school's field trip, so he overslept.
Kanon ran all the way to the shinkansen where a teacher was waiting for him. (The teacher wasn't angry)
His classmates have all gone ahead.
Nonnie mama message to Nonnie:
Ah, so Nonnie mama was there to see Non be the opening act for boss (mama was crying too much so she didn't see a lot of it 😭 )
🌞: Whose topic is this? eddy? / 🦀: Whose?
🌞: If we work from the end result, there's no one here who would throw away studying besides eddy!
from elementary up to middle school, eddy was going to cram school (🦀 : I was going to eikaiwa and cram school properly! 😤)
during middle school / junior high, he would be in cram school for 10 hours during the summer holidays
because of going to eikaiwa (and cram school) he was better at English than everyone else in his class, so he got carried away a little. "I know this already😏" so he didn't do the work.
second year of middle school (8th grade) he felt like he wasn't understanding anything. (🌞 : At least you were on a roll till 8th grade)
Boss was worried eddy couldn't graduate high school since he transferred schools. So 🌞 says he's really proud eddy made it and graduated (and 🌞 said he'll bring this up as many times as he wants 😤 )
for a period of time, 🐉 and 🦀 were housed in the Hidaka abode (which was also the period of time both of them were sorting out hs transfers) and were dormmates 😂 (RyuRyu says there's a lot that happened during that time that he could talk about!)
🌞: If eddy was brought up, then "Why? Did he transfer schools? Why did he transfer?" might come up.....
🐉: I wonder why~
🌞: I wonder why~
🦀: Ya know, my manager told me this morning today was gonna be fun 😩 Now you're all just making me sad 😢 (jokingly)
eddy is currently living alone now. Boss knows eddy often says he's lonely, sleepy, can't sleep at night, so he told 🦀 to promise him one thing, "Graduate" 🙏
🐉: "Yarujan / You did it!"
boss knows eddy worked really hard (to keep the promise) so he'd reward eddy for working hard. (Boss also gives the others gohoubi time it seems, since even though he was talking about eddy, he brought up Non. He'll get something Non wants [like the cap or a headphone] or in eddy's case if he wants to hold a particular mic he can 🥺 😭 )
🦀: Ehhh, but just the mic.. can i take a closer look at this amppp 👀
🌞: umm okayyy!! 😂
eddy can now join the BMSG POSSE kanpai and stay out late (though he can only drink juice for now)
eddy remembers when 🐉 's taxi for the Sukkiri appearance came. He was a complete night owl and in his "imma make a song till 2am!" mode, so by the time he was gonna go to sleep, 🐉 was up telling him, "Oh yeah, my taxi is coming soon"
🌞 : Your routine back then was really... 😂
eddy mama's message for eddy:
- eddy's an only child; the only boy among his cousins and the youngest
- and it does seem like he has moved to a new place too
- eddy mama went to see her babu's oneman live too. She promised herself she won't cry, but she cried hearing, "akogaere no sekai wo mama ni miseru / I will show mama the world I admire" in Natsuyasumi feat. schoolboi eddy 😭
(🐉 has met eddy mama, and says eddy mama is a lot like eddy)
🌞 still remembers the phone call he had with eddy mama when eddy was in his final year of middle school (boss says it's a restauarant at Uehara. Something like it would definitely be better for him if he moved to Tokyo. He says if he keeps talking it'll be "yabai", so he thanks eddy mama for trusting him to look out for eddy 🙇)
Kei's school has a sports festival every year, the 3rd years are always in charge of putting together a dance performance. Each class needed to perform, and Kei was in charge of picking the song, the choreography, and formations for his class (45 people), and then teach it to his classmates!
His classmates knew that Kei was a part of BMSG Trainees and has been practicing / training so they entrusted him with this huge task for their school's sports festival. KeiKei found it very challenging, there were people who never danced before, so explaining positions to them took up time.
Having said that, they received a lot of applause for their performance. KeiKei included acrobatics for his classmates who can do acrobats, and gave people who can dance well leading parts, so he was really happy!
KeiKei is going to university! He thinks he's the type that likes studying and would enjoy college. There are aspects of what he learns that he finds difficult, but he feels like there's a lot of what he studies that he can relate and connect to to his daily life, so he feels there's a lot of purpose!
Kei's a little embarrassed to say this in front of boss, but he studied hard and wanted to go to university because boss said he is staking his life on this, and wants to make the music industry better 😭 (so he can also contribute / help boss and the music industry in his own way later on!)
boss very touched (he just went "sssssssssss"), he says KeiKei's major is something related to him. It makes him wanna keep doing what he's doing so everyone has a happy future 🥹
BMSG Trainee Showcase 2024 Fukuoka was on a weekday so he had school the day after the showcase. He did take a leave of absence but he had a reason he had to go back to school the day after the showcase: his high school had a marathon, and it's 15-16 km (9.32 - 9.94 miles).
His school usually has the students practice / train for this during PE class. If you miss a training due to absence or other reasons, after the marathon's over, you have to make up for it by running extra laps after school.
Goichi did not want to do that AT ALL, so he woke up super early for a flight back (so did KeiKei and YuYu - for their own schools). However, by the time he made it to his school, the marathon was already over. He ran his extra laps~
Non: You should've just taken a day off if you were going to run (extra) laps!
Gonyan: No because I'll have to run (extra extra) laps
Boss: It'll just keep increasing 😂
boss's impression of him changed the most! (Because of how spartan his school is and he's juggling school with BMSG Trainee things)
🌞 : You're smiling a lot more 🥺 [he is in dad mode]
They say he's gotten more expressive. He was kinda stiff in the beginning.
Ryuhei says going home after a long schedule having his mother's cooking is blissful [he used the Japanese kanji for beef's song "Blissful" for the title]
[I love how in boss's head "mama gohan" means "mama rice" in English]
RyuRyu often gets home really late because of his schedule, so after he rings the doorbell he says his mother often looks sleepy when she opens the door.
RyuRyu mama [sleepy]: You want something to eat?
Of course, RyuRyu knows there's catering and food at venues he goes to, but home is where he's most comfortable, so RyuRyu's very grateful to know there's food at home whenever he returns.
around RyuRyu's first year of hs, he gave his mum a call and both of them cried over the phone. He was having a hard time in school and his mother was too(probably missed him or worried about him?). So his parents had a talk about it and his mother later decided to move to tokyo to be with RyuRyu.
Boss says RyuRyu mama was worried about the long commute to boss's house and was also worried letting RyuRyu live on his own
As for RyuRyu, the long commute takes away time he can study
The Hidaka abode is not in the Chiba city center (it's a bit outskirts) so getting to the Hidaka grandparent's after work takes a long time (RyuRyu wasn't sure if he was allowed to say Chiba 😂 Boss says it's OK)
RyuRyu also lied about height on his zast document application....
🌞 : Wait this kid is in his first year of middle school and he's already 178 cm? Amazing!
🐉 : I lied 🫣
RyuRyu finds it nostalgic but also scary looking back on his experience of THE FIRST plus pre-debut because it's been four years:
🐉 : I was 14 [when participating in zast] but 15 by the time of Shining One.
He remembers being super nervous for the Sukkiri appearance (Aug. 16, 2021) and realising, "Oh so this is what it means to be an adult"
RyuRyu mama's message to RyuRyu:
Other than thanking him for his hard work, she also talks about the time he fell asleep on the shinkansen and would have slept to Kyoto if she hadn't intervened and talked to the station staff if she can go and get him. She was really worried because he was not responding to her calls (because he fell asleep).
boss said him and ryu should write a song called / about "Mama"
RyuRyu Mama went to see them at Nagoya dome and he wants to return the favour (to his mama) some day
RyuRyu parents and shacho:
🌞 first met them online, RyuRyu was seated in between his papa and mama, with the BMSG parker he just got [so during their month break after VS PRO ARTIST]
Stages of RyuRyu:
elementary - very genki; extroverted
middle school - angsty introverted
high school - 🐉 : the people around me are crazy so i became crazy too; 🌞 : So you rebounded to extroversion
🐉: I'm a NEO-introvert now ✨

From Ryoki:
🐉 : Why is it in keigo?! 💢 💢 Thank you x2 Was I lost? (Because ryoki said jibun no suki na michi)
From Leo:
🌞 : Like a teacher wwwwwwwww
🐉 : You don't need to tell me things I don't need to know right now
🐉 : I hate this~ omg the members....
From Shunto:
🐉 : This guyyyyy 😂
🐉 : This is so strange, why can't they encourage / cheer me on a little more 😦
From Manato:
ALL: wwwwwwwwwwwwwww
🌞 : Super duper Manato!
🐉 : I don't get this 😂
🐉 : No way, that's it!? They had no messages of support for me
Later when RyuRyu flipped through his little messages book and found junon's:
[I guess staff cut junon's cuz he misspelled ryuryu's na[me, but ryuryu outed him anyway 😂]

Congrats on your graduation! I reaalllly respect Kei-kun!
You're kind, willing to listen to me, or let me listen to you.
Most importantly, super duper handsome!
I think you are the person in (BMSG) Trainees with the most love.
Let's go bowling some time btw.
Keito:
Kei-kun, congratulations on your graduation!
It was tough when we were assigned BANDAGE to do as our assigned song,
but I'm glad we could do it together, and it's a fond memory of mine!
I look up to Kei-kun, who is always kind and cool!
Let's continue to do a lot of things together as BMSG Trainees!
Kairi:
Kei-kun is really cool! I look up to you!
Please share with me a little about your skincare! You're a senpai I truly love!
Let's take another TikTok! Congratulations on your graduation!

Goichi-kun, congratulations on graduating!
We got together for the first time for BBB. We talked about a lot of things, I think you're a funny and cool guy!
The trainees all love Goichi-kun ❤️ , who is the moodmaker and hyping up everyone.
Kore kara mo yoroshiku onegaishimasu!
Raiki:
Congratulations on your graduation!
Since being disclosed as trainees, we've been doing a lot of things together for some reason.
There's been many instances where I think you're really cool, even though you're the complete opposite of me
We get along super well as friends, I'm really happy we get to be together 🤭
Kore kara mo yoroshiku ne!!
Ryoma:
When I watched Goichi's performance for the first time, you had amazing aura and skills.
I thought, "Who is this monster?!" lol
Thanks for all the funny things you do during practice, haha.
Kore kara mo yoroshiku onegaishimasu!!
Eiki:
Congrats on your graduationnnn!
Please join the Maekawa faction 🧒
Seito:
Goichi! Congrats on your graduation! (Gonyan: ohhhhh seichann)
Above all else, your voice is dope, I personally really love it!
You were super good in the recent Trainee cover videooo 😭 (Gonyan: Mecha ureshii!!)
We haven't talked a lot, let's have a nice long chat next time!
Looking forward to what you'll do next!
Messages to Kanon
RuiRui:
Kanon, congrats on graduating.
It's been three years since I first met you, you're already family!
So for a family like you to graduate... Damn~
I can't believe ittt!
But please look after me from hereon too! I'll treat you to yakiniku 👍
TaiTai:
Kanon, congrats on finishing high school
We're always together, but what I have learned from you the most is unconsciously striving / putting in the work.
For example, Kanon has been trying to practice your mixed voice right?
If it were me, I'd take it as a challenge and practice it during my self-training time.
But Kanon would practice it during self-training plus sauna, or when we're out eating. Even just in our day-to-day.
I knew from there that you really loved music and that as you shorten the distance between music and yourself you can grow / improve at an exponentially fast pace.
Thank you.
Let's work hard together
You can rely on me sometimes 🫶 Let's do our best.
Takkun:
Congrats on your graduation!
Love you! Let's hang!
Kanon: taaHHKK-unnnn! ORE MO SUKI!
uuki:
KANON!!!!!! Congrats on your graduation!!!!!
I'm really happy we're a part of the same office now after MISSIONx2!
Kanon's sophistication is so cool!
Please keep building it up! Let's hang out!

Boss's message to the graduates
Boss to KeiKei
Kei-kun! Thank you for coming to BMSG!
By the time I realized, you have added your own colours to your voice and performances compared to my first impression of them. I feel like I was seeing a new Kei-kun when I was looking at the recent [Trainee] recital.
And you have continued to surpass that, "Ah! There's this cool and interesting artist coming up!" I'm really looking forward to what's ahead for you as a fan.
We talked a lot about your academics today too, Kei-kun is always steadfast and working hard, I'm sure none of that will go to waste.
All the work you are putting in right now will be a part of you and be your power and aid as an artist.
Please continue to do your best from now on! I'm supporting you!
Boss to Goichi
Goichi-kun!
I think my impression of you has changed a lot from the first time I saw you, too. In a good way.
You are starting to show how you play around in your performances. You've also gotten better at not just rapping, which you were already good at, but also experimenting with singing this or that way, if it's a bright, happy song how would you present yourself, how to present a strong self, and so forth.
You're discovering all of this with sincerity and I see it all. I'm always excited and looking forward to seeing what new side of Goichi I will see this time or what has he learned and discovered.
I'm sure the Goichi who always has a lot of energy and passion, and good at pulling a performance that has a lot of movements, but if he has to pull a performance where he just stands still next time, what would I see?
As you increase your weapons, your core also becomes stronger. I look forward to hearing another great rap from you!
Thank you so much!
Boss to Kanon
Kanon-kun! You've gotten more expressive since our first meeting. Thank you for always being excited, positive, and having fun with music. Your performance at Trainee Showcase left an impression on me. In addition to a brilliant performance, you have broadened your view (on stage and of others): you were able to notice and fill up silent moments [during the MC talks], give someone a chance to talk if you see that they haven't said much, or you'd get to the front yourself if the situation calls for it.
I don't know any man who is so earnest, sincere and honest about entertainment, with such a vision! I respect you very much! Your bare minimum this year is to make 10 songs on your own, to deepen your knowledge and understanding of music. I look forward to it! Thank you very much!
Boss to eddy
edhiii boi-kun!
(🦀 : So I get one too?
🌞: Yes!
🦀 : I'm glad
🌞 : wwwwwww)
eddy-kun!
Eehh... Where do I start. First of all, congratulations on graduating!
I'm really happy!
I know eddy will probably always say he's lonely x3...... [proceeds to fix 🦀 's jacket 😭 😭 ]
But recently, I think you've finally come to understand that you are worthy of being loved, that you're worthy of standing on the stage and delivering this message to everyone, and I'm really happy to see that.
I've had my doubts of should I say this to you, or is it OK for me to say this, but no matter what happens, I am your ally. So rest easy and do what you like to your heart's content.
( 🦀 : That's scary! 😩
[boss laughs]
🌞 : It's OK!)
So, kore kara mo yoroshiku ne!
🦀 : Onegaishimasu!
Boss to Ryuhei
Ryuhei-kun!
I've known Ryuhei-kun since middle school. I knew you would turn out amazing at 18 years old. A lot of people, and even Ryuhei yourself I think, said you'll be someone crazy by the time you're 18. I think you've grown and surpassed that expectation, thank you very much.
Please let me say one more time what I told you when we worked on "Loop":
"In 5 years time, I think you will probably be the symbol of BMSG."
Put on a great performance, be a great artist, and continue to surprise the world.
Thank you very much!
Hope you enjoyed!
