History

Senga admires Michael Jackson and has studied dance since childhood. When he visited an Arashi concert at the age of 11 because his mother's friend was acquainted with Sho Sakurai of Arashi, he was so impressed by Michael's live-like performance that he hoped to join Johnny & Associates.[2]

After auditioning, he joined Johnny & Associates on April 13, 2003, at the age of 12.[3]

After joining several groups as a trainee (Johnny's Jr.),[4] he was selected as a member of Kis-My-Ft2 in 2005 and made his CD debut with "Everybody Go" on August 10, 2011, seven years after their formation.[5]

On December 13, 2013, Busaiku was formed from Kis-My-Ft2 with Toshiya Miyata, Wataru Yokoo and Takashi Nikaido produced by Masahiro Nakai who was a member of SMAP.[6]

He made his first film appearance in the Kadokawa Pictures movie "Bi-location" released on January 18, 2014, playing the role of Takumi Mitarai in a dual role.[7]

He often uses his dance skills to choreograph songs for Kis-My-Ft2.[8]
