Kagrra

[Kinsao]

Hey, thank you for the song! I didn't have that!

 

[furan]

hee hee no problem!

um, i don't know if it's gunna be the theam.... mebies Hebiichigo knows more but... i don't

lol, Isshi.... bless him, i really love that man XD
i love his new hair style though... his desicions have ben better in that department since the incident with Rin.....

but he is such a diva it hurts XDDDD
however, he's also, ever so slowly, turning into a pimp (of cause not litrally )

 

[Kinsao]

LMAO @ pimp Isshi!
He is so cute though.....
Errrrr.... what is the incident with Rin? *is so out of touch*

 

[hebiichigo]

well.. yeah, the new single, "Chikai no Tsuki", will be the ending theme for "Kinnikuman II Yo Ultimate Muscle 2"


The Rin incident.. maybe means.. his gigantic hair.. thing he had at the time?

 

[furan]

most deffinatly

but you gotta admit.. he's got pmip material about him... he loves himself, he lives in a huge house with 2 dogs (unfortunatly, i don't thin they're bitchs ) he has exsessive jewlry, like... a million rigns...
and he wears a lot of white.
... you see where i'm going here....

ah, the ending theam... hmm.... there's a likleyness that they'll keep that in Japanese... i mean, they kept the outlaw star ones all in Japenese... but that was a 'later viewing' cartoon anyways XDDD

 

[furan]

this incident

 

[Kinsao]

OMFG.............. ...........

.............. ..............

*coughcoughcoughcoughcoughcough*
I see what you mean....

 

[hebiichigo]

Please, have another..

And, does this look like a pimp to you?

Well.. yes.. but he needs a hat


Why wouldn't they keep the ending theme in Japanese? It is a Japanese cartoon, after all.. :? Or are you meaning if (when?) they show it overseas? I think if they want the song to be in English for the overseas audience, they will just change it to something else.. I can't imagine Isshi singing in English.. ever..

 

[drain_away]

oh, now i love him even more...

they kept the Outlaw Star ending themes in Japanese here even though it showed in the middle of the day...maybe there is just no substitute ofr a song as beautiful as "Hiro no Tsuki"...

i don't know about other places, but for America they USED to change the themes with a different English version...hence really crap songs like the English version of the Sailor Moon theme. a lot of times they leave off the opening theme and just have one for the end credits, like Outlaw Star. although that one was rare at the time because it had the original japanese theme, "Hiro no Tsuki". but more and more now they are leaving on the Japanese themes. Mobile Suit Gundam: the 8th MS Team still had "10 years after" as the ending theme. however, doing this is more common for the anime cartoons targeted at teens. shows like "Ultimate Muscle", though, are shown as a part of Saturday morning cartoons for kids. these programs usually show things like Digimon, Pokemon, Ultimate Muscle, and "Cardcaptors", the completely stupified version of Card Captor Sakura, meant for kids because they edited out the whole "Tomoyo loves Sakura" thing. these all have English themes. (i cannot begin to explain how very crap the "Cardcaptors" theme is...) so i think for Ultimate Muscle, poor Isshi is going to have to save his theme for the Japanese crowd...because i doubt it will make it here. for a group like Puffy AmiYumi, yes, but for a band as underground as Kagrra...probably not...

 

[furan]

lol, they <i>sometimes</i> play the teen titans theam in Japanese... it's like a pick 'a' mix, lol, there's no way of telling...

but then Puffy AmiYumi did the English version too so....
but anyways, yeah, that's what i ment, like with the Dragonball GT one... the english one's crap, the Japanese one's just funny

Outlaw Star is possibly the only anime i've seen showing over here where they've kept both opening and closing tittles in Japanese... but i really can't imagin them changing them... the English Edit of Hiro no Tsuki (ie Melfina's song) is crap... lol, so much so i re did it,and even my version was better

Kagrra, aren't, supprosingly, that underground anymore.... they seemed to be pretty well know when i whent there... most of the students in the school knew of them, even if they hadn't heared them... so... i mean, there's a slim chance...

Toonami doesn't seem to do the whole 'kids things in the morning' Beyblead was at 6 when it moved to that channel... pokemon is just on constantly, lol.
ultimate muscle, when it comes back on (which i realyl can't imagin it not) will be at 6...
the last season was getting pretty violent, lol i'm suppried the but it with the kinds stuff

lol, but he sang happy birthday for AKiya and Shin in English
:
but no... i really can't imagin him singing Kagrra, in English, you're right

lol, and that was a bad example... he looks very much like a pimp there
(but you're right, the hat would be the finishing touch )

but the kimo he wears there... *thunk* it's gorgeous!
possibly wouldn't go with the colout, but... it's just.... WAW!
LOL

 

[hebiichigo]

lol, but he sang happy birthday for AKiya and Shin in English

Pretty much every Japanese person sings "Happy birthday" in English..

All this anime talk confuses me...

 

[furan]

lol
i know
but still.... he song in english!

lol, thats the plan

 

[drain_away]

heh heh...yes, that was the plan... bwahahahaha...

i don't know...in America they edit stuff out like CRAZY, so...Ultimate Muscle might still be for kids...

and we don't even have Toonami anymore... do you guys?? we have "Adult Swim", but i can hardly imagine they would put "Ultimate Muscle" on there with Samurai Champloo and other such shows...

but there you go again, on Adult Swim they keep the themes. Samurai Champloo has both opening and ending originals. (though the opening original is done in english...it's the thought that counts, really...)

wow, they actually HAD and English version of "Hiro no Tsuki"?? i'm so glad i never heard it!

everyone knew Kagrra where...Japan??

 

[furan]

yeah, Japan ^.^

you didn't? have you not see outlaw star all the way through?
when she sings in it...
'i don't know
what words i can say
the wind has a way
to talk to me
lovers sing
a silent lullaby
..... and then something more, i can't remeber,


yeah, we have cartoon network and toonami on our extra channel deal.
i mean we have others, but they're the ones that show the anime... just.... not any clasics....
or at least not anymore....

 

[v.v.n.]

THAT was such an incredible picture, puwahahahaha~~~!!!!!
thanx furan, where u find that?? I ALWAY wonder WHO IN THE HELL is Isshi's hair stylist.....

 

[hebiichigo]

Maybe people know Kagrra because they've been on TV.. quite a bit? I dunno.. XD (Unlike Dir en grey who are almost never on TV, and most Japanese people don't know them, or some do but are like "but I don't know much about them" lol)

anime anime anime.. isn't this a Kagrra, thread?

 

[Kinsao]

I'm lost about anime...

 

[furan]

ahh, yeah, i thought that might have been the case...
i found it really od how litrally no-one knew who Dir en Grey are.. i mean... you talk to people here and at least one person's gunna have heared of Metalica or Iron Maiden... but no-one over there knew Diru... (ok, they' haven't been going as long as those 2 bands, but shh ^^

i tried to find Kagrra, on TV... we were there on a Friday... i desperatly wanted to find a show... any show... that might have mentioned them *weeps*
but i didn't

... o well.. i got to watch a Japanese soap opra instead

can't remeber where i found that pic V.V.n. ut it's from the Rin photoshoot, sho... there should technically be a tone more...
there are... just not with the head dress ^^;

it is the Kagrra, thread... and they're inging the ending titles for Kunnikuman

 

[hayakuchan]

And, does this look like a pimp to you?

Well.. yes.. but he needs a hat


Why wouldn't they keep the ending theme in Japanese? It is a Japanese cartoon, after all.. :? Or are you meaning if (when?) they show it overseas? I think if they want the song to be in English for the overseas audience, they will just change it to something else.. I can't imagine Isshi singing in English.. ever..

a pimp? poor isshi....

oh btw... i'm not sure but i read somewhere, long time ago, Isshi sang Hyde's Shallow Sleep in a show (it has english lyrics ne..). there was a Dragon Head performance too... i read it randomly in the Internet... ☝

 

[hebiichigo]

Look, I only said, I can't imagine him singing English.. So what if he did.. I'd never heard it, or seen it.. ☝

 

[furan]

aww, poor hebi
i'mm too mean to you, you need to bat me round the head next time i'm horrible... it encorages other

ok guys, i just took these screen caps from the Miyako Live:

(singing in Japanese i might add )

and there was the CUTEST lil bit with Isshi and Nao




see?

ok, and then i thought some peple might like to see this bit (i'm odd ok?)

themiddle band mentioned is Gazette btw, and Auga is thei oficial fanclub incase you didn't know... but you newed a japan address to join

but yeah, my pint it, see! Kagrra, love Kra too~!
(and not alice nine by the looks of it but that could just be because if the date it was released... )

 

[hebiichigo]

I KNOW. You are mean to me all the time, furan..

Thanks for the caps, though.. I love that live..

the 'thanks' thing, all PS company bands have that on their CDs and other stuff they release..
Even my old Due'le quartz CD says "thanks to Kagrra & Ash & HYDRA".. It's nice, though, lol.

 

[furan]

lol
well... still
i thought it might have been a protocall type thing

i thought Ash was the joint project Due'le and Kagrra did together... but then on several ocations it's looked like they were actually another band... care to clear that up for me, it all gets very confusing

i am sorry i'm mean.... i don't know why i am, you're such a lovely and kinda and careing person (waw, thia sounds so sarcastic, but it's not! :relief) and i'm so horrible and malicious back to you

 

[hebiichigo]

yep, Ash was a different band. I don't know much about them. I'm fairly sure they've disbanded by now, though..

Members of Ash with Sakito/Miyabi, Akiya/Isshi.. I don't know what this was for. But it takes me back a bit.. XD Actually it was probably for a tour thing.. I guess :?


I don't know why you're mean to me either.. ☝ lol

 

[furan]

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
i saw that picture and just presumed the other 2 guys were Kazuki and Kikasa
MAN i'm dumn

lol, aw man... i forgot you and your 5 (nearly 6) years of Jrock... you were actually in the know when Kagrra formed... *tears* it makes me proud to know you

also makes me anoyed and jelose.... maybe that's why i'm mean to you XD
