Anyone that follows the Japanese entertainment industry know that Johnny & Associates wields a disproportionate amount of power in the industry. It has long been rumored that Johnny & Associates cockblocks acts who infringe upon their “turf”, this “turf” being boybands. Many boybands’ less than stellar careers have been blamed on Johnny & Associates meddling in their affairs. An example of such meddling would be telling a show that a Johnny’s act won’t appear on the show if a non-Johnny’s boyband is on. See who the netizens think has fallen victim to Johnny & Associates’ cockblocking after the jump.

The EXILE Tribe and Johnny’s are good friends.
Since Generations can appear on Music Station this is a big deal

Do they really get along?
I heard that at first they kept the members and fan’s age brackets high so Johnny’s won’t keep an eye on them
That or LDH has become that big of an organization

That’s right. So they won’t overlap with Johnny’s they gathered a bunch of dumb guys and seperated the dance and the vocal
That succeeded and they became the organization they are now
AAA were also very conscious of Johnny’s and added female members

Since there aren’t really any Japanese male idols that sing and can dance people who aren’t interested won’t care, but it would be good to have an idol like Justin Timberlake in Japan

Johnny’s has that much power
What a terrifying group

DAPUMP (Because they overlap with Johnny’s)
AAA (Because they overlap with Johnny’s but if one of the girls sings main in a ballad they can perform)
