I dont want to ruin your happy day but this is what is written in NIKKAN Sport in an article of Guy and Dolls (Uchi's new butai)
I retranslate it from French version (so sorry if it's not accurate)
" The president of Johnny Jimusho, Johnny Kitagawa, recognize him (Uchi) with a great quality (value) " his singing, his acting, his dancing are good, so he has no problem. He has exactly the same quality as Marlon Brando" Concerning his future, he (Johnny) expresse such great hope "For a moment, he will experience with butai and concert in solo. Since he'll not come back to NEWS and Kanjani8, a group or an unit will be created in the future"

The Japanese version can be found here (i hope i copy the right paragraph)
"ジャニーズ事務所のジャニー喜多川社長は内を「歌と芝居、ダンスはうまいですから、絶対大丈夫。マーロン・ブランドのようなニヒルさがピッタリ」と高く評価。今後について「当面、舞台やコンサートなどソロで経験を積んでもらいます。NEWSや関ジャニ∞に戻ることはないですが、将来的にはバンド、グループを組むことはあるかもしれない」と、高い期待を示した。(日刊)"

Now i somehow understand why Yoko and Eito decide to choose ,out of tons of their songs, "Mermaid" to sing in Countdown concert. They want to remind us Uchi is always a member of Eito.
So i SERIOUSLY ask you, beloved Uchi's fans, your opinions about this. Will u accept this?
I know all of us are so tired of hoping then being disappointed then waiting.
But now I seriously think of starting a campaign or something like this to bring him back.
I hope not like the last times with Puzzle, this times we can be unite, cooperate with Japanese fans and other oversea fans to bring him back.
