Kanata Morinomiya, guitarist and vocalist of the boyband JAXX/JAXX, channels an infectious energy both onstage and off, his vibrant personality amplified by a Kansai dialect shaped by his upbringing in Japan’s Kansai region. Born October 18, the 17-year-old stands at 172 cm, weighs 55 kg, and has blood type B. His bold purple hair highlights accentuate a dynamic stage persona, drawing attention during performances. Cheerful and outgoing, Kanata thrives as JAXX/JAXX’s mood-maker, lifting spirits with spontaneous jokes and spirited antics—whether teasing bandmate Gakuto Haruka or playfully pranking Kazumi. His guitar solos, marked by electrifying precision, anchor the group’s live-instrument sound, while collaborative songwriting underscores their collective creativity. The name Kanata (奏大) merges “play music” with “greatness,” and Morinomiya (森ノ宮) evokes “forest shrine,” reflecting a poetic contrast. His longstanding bond with Jun Wakasa, forged before their JAXX/JAXX days, hints at shared history, though his past remains largely unexplored. Through humor, musicianship, and unshakable camaraderie, Kanata cements his role as the band’s unifying spark.
