This was taken off her Xanga:
"Legend says that if you fold one thousand paper cranes, someone's wish will come true.
Regardless of that legend, if people from every corner of the world were to make their
own wish, and those wishes and their names, and countries were written on each crane,
and sent.. how much would that mean?
Note: The band could use a little encouragement.
Why?: Following the release of the album Vulgar, and the drop out of their usual and noted Visual Kei image, Dir en grey have gotten the short end of the stick. Now, there is a difference between Foreign fandom and Japanese fandom. Most of you will remember the critism that ensued over the loss of the kei image, as well as the crowd surfing ban. Go, [JrockNYC] and his reveiws at the current time, as well as his extreme outlook, are a perfect example of how bad it was in Japan as opposed to the US and other countries.
The state of decline in Dir en grey's fanbase was rapid and vicious, fans were reported to have sent the band letters demanding that they break, reviewists wrote Kyo off as 'tone deaf'. A huge percentile of fans were lost. And lyrics like this [R to the Core-Vulgar album] were lost on the few loyal, and the ones who'd turned.
R TO THE CORE
Lyrics: Kyo Music: Dir en grey
You're the one that's stupid.
You're a pig; acting all honest
but you hide your true self.
Can't hear anything. Can't feel anything.
This is a place of contradiction.
My heart screamed out,
you make fun of me
like you make fun of my dead left ear.
I know everyone isn't like that,
but I can't accept everything.
So I still, even now scream out in a hoarse voice
to all you rotten people...
There is an answer,
so writhe in agony
and let your will to live come out.
Everyone's the same once they sin.
Almost every song on the album speaks of betrayal and is an obvious ploy at it. Fans accused them of selling out. The fatalistic approach continues right down to Saku. Dir en grey appealed to the foreign fans after Vulgar, for most obvious reasons.
A recent supposed message from Kyo to the Japanese fans:
my voice is dead
my heart is dead
my emotions are dead
my heart is dead
there's no one inside me
rather than living with a smile
reality...

Myself and my friend are working on a project, she'll be folding one thousand paper cranes. We'll send them to Diru, to show our encouragement, and approval.
Please, anyone who wants to help, all you have to do, is give the following to be written on the cranes ( either comment here or e-mail me at
[email protected] (note: this is my friends e-mail who is organizing it, not mine. Sorry for the confusion there folks.) ):
Name:
Country:
Wish for Diru:
Thank you for your time.
As a side note, don't respond to this if you think it's a stupid idea, think we're looking too much in to things, think we've lost our minds, or just feel like belittling someone. This isn't for that, it's a way for Dir en grey fans to show their appreciation for the band. If you don't like it, DON'T comment.
Thanks. ^o^"
*dies* It's quite horrible what people will do in this world. How can you call yourself a fan? I mean, it just doesn't seem possible to me. REAL fans stick with the band through thick and thin and quite frankly, I'm sick of all you people. (NOTE: this is not directed twards everyone)
So please... please help with this if you are a long term Dir en Grey fan, or if you just got to know them. If we don't, who knows what kind of horrible things will happen.
And I know people come to this site and don't comment. The meter tells all. All I ask is that you comment on this one thing... please. It would help a lot to make many a people stop crying AND for me not to be even more bitchy than I already am about all this s*** going on in my life.
Sorry if I may have come on strong but you all need to help.
Thank you.
I'll make sure never to do that then!! XD
Kyo's singing in the role of the woman again and is well talking about have sex to make a child. There isn't much to it...Its one of those songs that....
...i thought it was about butterflies...i feel so ashamed of myself...
