Shota Watanabe, known as Snow Man's "beauty bancho," has a cool and laid-back impression at first glance, but inside he hides the logical thinking and high practicality peculiar to ISTPs (Virtuosos). The ISTP's characteristics of calm analysis and the ability to concentrate on the task at hand are directly linked to his outstanding dance skills and singing ability, and his stability in the high-pitched range in particular is the core of the group. He tends to be poor at expressing his emotions and is sometimes called "salty" by the members, but this is a manifestation of his attitude of emphasizing facts and efficiency over emotions because ISTPs have Introverted Thinking (Ti) as their main function. However, among close members, the "gap" that fascinates fans is the honest reactions he sometimes shows and the sudden jokes that soothe those around him. His charm lies in the exquisite balance between his craftsman-like professionalism that does not allow for compromise and the human-like delicacy that can be glimpsed in a fleeting moment. Within the group, he often plays the role of providing objective opinions with his calmness.
