[edit] Biography
Yuichi Nakamaru is the N of KAT-TUN, and the oldest member. He is known for his good sense of humour, and is the peace-maker of the group (the other members stated that talking to him calms them down). He was also voted "the most loved idiot of KAT-TUN", and didn't seem to mind (everyone voted for him, though someone gave up their vote).
With Koki Tanaka, they make up a comedic unit, TaNaka (Tanaka; Nakamaru).
Nakamaru's trademark skill is his beatboxing, which is incorporated into many of KAT-TUN's songs. It seems that he has been learning this skill for many years and he spends much of his free time practicing. His ability to beatbox has made him stand out recently, earning him more fans and popularity.
To add to his growing popularity, he has recently begun writing songs for KAT-TUN (such as "Understandable"), incorporating his beatboxing whenever possible.
