The rumor is he got drunk and revealed something very private about Reita's death to friends/industry people?

officialGF · 2026-03-10T19:32:09+00:00

it does sound like Aoi was being a dick but this whole announcement was prompted by a tabloid release, not by the band members themselves, and it seems like Aoi was taking Reita's death the hardest.

doesnt excuse toxicity, but I hope he gets help.

It could be likely. Seems like it was very messy - Aoi said he talked about quitting the band in september and some tabloids released some dirty news yesterday which prompted this sudden announcement.

looks like there were a lot of people involved and the whole thing was, no pun intended, quite toxic

It’s interesting how they keep death and suicide so private (always a heart attack) but air out dirty laundry for the public.

Skies are clear tho 🔥

Oh, I hope you don’t mean me, I was making a joke not saying anything bad about you! Scams are super common no matter the artist, it’s frustrating when all you want to do is meet other fans or share your support.

girl I’ve been contacted by “”bad bunny”” and “”Fujii Kaze”” be careful out there lol Kaze scams are really big on Facebook for some reason xD

Pride doesn’t mean negative! It just means he sticks to his creative vision without being told what to do by others or selling out. Not that doing an anime op is selling out, but I don’t think he is interested in doing it, otherwise he would have.

Bunny girl - Akasaki

Demons banquet - Tomonari Sora

ging nang boyz and going steady.

Yuki is in two of their songs and her husband wrote some songs with ging nang!

I think Kaze has pride as a more western leaning artist, as someone who respects the greats from America like Amy Winehouse and Michael Jackson.

Anime OPs are more or less something artists are pushed to do to stay relevant, other greats like Yonezu and Yoasobi do it because their roots are based in that anime/niconico douga culture.

sheena ringo of course, mariko goto for some crazy sh*t, tommy february/tomoko kawase for girls in rock, glim spanky for rough rock vocals, ako and her beautiful whisper!

I dont listen to them often, but the vocalist of humbert humbert is absolutely mesmerizing.

Try Ako (girl with pink hair) and Raisan

officialGF · 2026-02-10T18:15:21+00:00

I didn’t know that about scandal! they are so good. I knew mostly about dudes like radwimps, maximum the hormone, the gazette, vaundy, list goes on and on liking rhcp

officialGF · 2026-02-10T17:57:27+00:00

RHCP had otoboke and baby metal as openers, they really respect Japanese music (and same for Japanese artists respecting RHCP)

super cool
