Yeesh! Trying to remember if I've ever seen any of the other members do this and wondering how often the others get asked. I suspect part of it is that he has softer boundaries than the others.

Jumpei Tainaka, who photographed Yuzu for Pirouette magazine, is currently holding an exhibition in Japan. A Japanese fan shared a thread of the talked she had with him about the photo session. Machine translation: After visiting JUMPEI TAINAKA’s photo exhibition yesterday, I had him sign my copy of Piruetto (Piruette) which he shot the cover for. He was very friendly, and he said: “I’m grateful. The moment I posted that photo, I got reactions from all over the world, and it made me incredibly happy.” When I asked him how he photographed Hanyu-kun, he said: “I told him that I usually take a lot of dark photos, while his photos are usually pretty bright, so this time I told him I was going to shoot him really dark. He’s smart, so he understood what I meant right away. For the shoot, I projected my monochrome water photos—they’re kind of dark, even ominous—onto him with a projector. He immediately got the idea and acted like a main character who’s sort of a villain. There are also some unreleased shots from the session, but he came out looking like a villainous heel[1] and yet still the protagonist. The one that I shot in a more portrait-like way at that time is the cover photo.” He continued: “During Echoes of Life, I got to take photos while being allowed to exist as a traveller within his world, and when I posted those in monochrome they went viral, and he liked that shot of his back. This time, he stepped into my world. The moment I posted that photo, people all over the world reacted, saying it was something they’d never seen before, it was incredible.” Tainaka-san, who says he wants to go beyond the surface and capture someone’s inner depths, creates black-and-white photos so three-dimensional and vivid that you can almost see color in them; they speak directly to the deepest parts of the heart. At the Higashi-Nakano venue, you can also see the projector and the water images he used when photographing Hanyu-kun. [1] The term "heel" refers to a character who plays the role of the "villain" or "antagonist" in stories, plays, movies, and TV dramas . The word originates from the English word "heel" and is an expression that originated in the world of professional wrestling. Heels are primarily the antagonists of the main character (babyface), and are important characters who add excitement to the story. In Japan, this term is not only used in professional wrestling, but also in dramas, movies, anime, and even real-life human relationships.
