Lareine

hahaha aww bonnie and i are in the same boat =) im a hopeless romantic too =P hahah oOo bonnie! you and i are on kamijo's boat of romance =P HAHAHHA anywho... IF kamijo isnt romantic in real life.. he plays it so well onstage, im sure eventually it takes its toll in his reality and affects him somehow =) hahaa

haha did you show your friends metamorphose? heheh i love that pv =) its still one of my favs =) caz machi and kamijo look so beautiful in it =P huh... actually... i will have to say, i think machi looks the best in that pv =) thats how i fell in love with him... but anywho... im so happy kamijo created lareine =) i mean... honestly their music is WOW!! GO KAMIJO =)

a dream... truly they are a dream =P haha i do wish we could just be in it forever =D
hehehe sit in my little dream bubble.. i called it kamijo meadow huh bonnie =) where little kamijos frollic around and pixy,pastel,inertia and bonnie prance around with me =D hahaha everyone come join my little dream bubble of happiness!
 
HAHHA... that just reminds me kaine, remember when we were all sitting around the marriott lobby and you told us you aren't that big on fantasy... and we told you that if you love Kamijo, you are "so fantasy" and that HE IS "so fantasy?" HAHhaha.. okay i have no idea why that cracks me up so much
 
Geikou posted on itoshii_hanatachi (the Yahoo! mailing list) that the new Cure will come out the 21st of this month! Only a few more days! I really hope Kamijo has the cover again. :haihai:
 
Oh I want a postcard! That would be soo sweet. I can put it up on my wall... once I have a more permanent room that is... summer housing sucks!

I'm not going anywhere really special this summer. I'll be going to CA for AX and maybe Hyde. Then I'll be going home (TX) and maybe Mexico for a couple of days. I might be going to NY for the Blood concert, since Kaine and sunsweet have made me addicted... and now I feel I have to blast it out my window every morning at 7 AM. I really hope my neighbors don't complain... If you want a post card, let me know. It won't be nearly as special as Kaine's but you can have one. ^_^ I can send you one from here (Boston/MIT) also if you'd like. Heh heh. I want to make a section in my wall for postcards from friends... that would be awesome.

Going back to Lareine, I was looking closely at Kamijo's message in the jhouserock page: http://www.jhouserock.com/portal/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=187&Itemid=167
He said, "I find myself telling my friends in Japan about all of you I met in America over and over again." So it made me wonder if he's been telling his friends about meeting some of us multiple times... or if he meant that he's been repeating the story over and over.
 
AHhA. it definitely means multiple times. but yes, kaine i also want a postcard!!! =] BONNNNIE needs love. even if it is from across the country. and make sure to go bother the living crap out of inertia while youre in the same country as her!! hehehehhe (sorry inertia heheheh i had to) but make sure you have a GREAT SAFE LOVELY TIME. and maybe you can run away from your mom and go stalk kamijo in tokyo. hehehehhe <3333 LOVVE!!!
 
hhaahah...start a postcard chain. all lareine fans send postcards to each other.
cuz we're bored and we need something to tie us over while we wait for another show! hahahahah

anywho,yeah! of course he meant those of us he met multiple times! i mean, we were such a weird bunch! lol. i could imagine kamijo telling mayu and emiru about kaine flapping her arms going " i wanna fly to japan to see you!" and then kamijo flaps his arms imitating kaine, lol. and i'm sure when he saw bonnie and me at the dinner, he must have thought, oh these two again, at least they're not with their rest of their gang, lol. .....well, at least it's nice to thnk so right? right?

plus we're all such hotties, that i'm sure kamijo is soooo regretting that he didn't take endless snapshots of us so he could share with his friends, or just keep to himself.....hey it could happen!

don't burst my bubble!!!!
 
ah ha! so this is where you guys have been hiding! ^_~ i was just browsing for "never cage" lyrics and stumbled on this place. ^^ kinda busy at the moment and not a whole lot to say right now, but i just wanted to remark on this one:

im sure Kamijo was a romantic. im sure he didn't walk around holding a rose and throwing cheezy lines at girls, but he had to have been born a dreamer.
Click to expand...

dreamer, perhaps. but both he and mayu (the one who came up with the idea of using flowers as symbols) have said that they are not romantic in real life. ^^;
 
-_- i bet kamijo and mayu were lying when they said they werent romantic in real life =P HAHAHAH what kinda UNromantic guys would come up with using FLOWERS... as symbols =P HAHAH jk jk jk =D oh well... romantic or not.. theyre sexy =)

bye bye everyone!! im off to the airport in a few minutes!! last post until july 4 =) HUGS EVERYONE!!! HUGS AND KISSES!!! its weird -_- like... i know its stupid to say.. but i love you all SOOO much =D you're like my other family... haha and its weird caz ive only met a handful of you guys... for like.. what.. 3 days =P HAHAHA and already, a piece of me is cut out for everyone of you =) HHEHEHE i love ya =) for those who wanted a postcard, keep your eyes peeled =D anywho... leaving =D
BYE LOVES KISSES!!! and let lareine's ROMANCE run all through your veins (haha i couldnt help but throw a cheesy kamijo-ish line in =P)
 
I don't think they were lying... They seem like ordinary bandmen whose main focus is their music. It doesn't leave much time/energy left over for real-life romance. I talked to somebody at Fanime about this, but I don't remember who... ^^;

Have a fun trip, Kaine!

well, you don't have to have real-life romance to be a romantic. ^^ romance is a physical/emtional thing. being a romantic is more like a philosophy/view on life. ^^

and have fun, kaine! i'm so envious!
 
to me, dreamer and romantic go hand in hand.

im sure kamijo wasn't lying either. i know we know naught, but maybe 0.000000001% of who he really is, regardless- im just going to pretend like he doesnt realize it. =] because i have a hard time believing that anyone who chooses to pursue a career in any kind of arts is not a dreamer/romantic.

Kaine: i love you to- wait. kaine is gone. GUYS. KAINE IS GONE!! what do we do now? i miss her already. =[

inertia: haha i think we talked about it for a bit at fanime. it slipped up when we were talking about how all the girls were surprised kamijo doesnt read for enjoyment.
 
Hi geikou!

Kaine!... *searches around* I miss her too!

Maybe Kamijo expresses the kind of life he'd like to have in his music, since he doesn't have the time to have it outside of music... Or some logic like that. Or maybe he's afraid of encountering someone to love and "be romantic" with... like maybe he's afraid of being heartbroken or something. If that's the case, he could be romantic with me... ^_^ I would protect his heart from all evils! *runs off to device a plan to meet him again*

Damn, I was thinking the other day about the perfect thing to get autographed. I should have gotten one of those marriage certificates and signed my name on it... then tell Kamijo where to sign his "autograph". ^_______^ LOL, that would have been so awesome... even if for some reason someone said it wasn't legally binding, it would make a great poster... Damn, why do all my great ideas happen after I could have made them true? *goes bang her head on the wall repeatedly for not planning fast enough* Hey! You all better not steal my idea! :box: j/k

On another note, are we doing the postcard exchange? I want postcards! And I'll send some too! <-- me writing to everyone. Send me a pm if you'd like one and with where to send it to!
 
hi, nekkyo! did i meet you at fanime? (btw, for those who did go to fanime, this is amber.) that marriage license would've been hilarious. ^o^ i was thinking afterwards that for the picture, i should've asked kamijo to do a yubikiri with me. ^o^ oh well. hopefully there will be a next time...

and i haven't had time to go through all the posts since fanime yet, so i dunno if this has already been posted by someone else, but i put my live report temporarily here. (temporarily until i can get my lareine site revived, which i am now determined to do. ^o^)
 
Nope, we didn't meet. I actually didn't meet anyone during Fanime. -_- I was too busy going to Kamijo's events and shopping. Heh... ^_^; sorry. A yubikiri picture would have been so cute! Damn... all good ideas develop once their too late. BTW, I loved your report. It was like reliving the experience. I wish I could go back in time and pause my life there. It was just so much fun.

I'm still writing my report... I decided to include as much detail before I forget any more of it. I'm about half done writing about the dinner on Friday. Oh, there's so much left to write about. And I'm still trying to get my website up properly so I can post the pictures I have. I promise it'll be up in the near future.
 
nekkyo:
neel's server? Where's that? I don't know about it...
Click to expand...
it's right here. and here's what he said in the email he sent to the girls we met at fanime:
daki:
just wondering does anyone have the japanese lyrics of all songs on winter romantic?
Click to expand...
since "refrain" and "romantic season" were originally released as new sodmy songs (although "romantic season" was first performed by kamijo as lareine), i have those transliterated and translated already at my lareine site. the others i don't have done yet but i will eventually. ^^;

I just found out how wicked my trip to CA is going to be... Mana is indeed going to be there, and I have tickets for the Hyde concert, and Miyawaki and Sakai from 12012 are going to be at AX as well! Oh damn, so much j-rock for one weekend... will I be able to survive??? Damn it! I just hope everything is scheduled to work out. :? Seriously, anyone want to join me...

hmm... I wonder if jhouserock will have any more Lareine items... ^_^ That would be sooo sweet!

geikou: Thanks for the info!
 
you know, i was looking at the cure english site and the next issue doesn't appear to have lareine in it. -_- maybe i misheard/misremembered? guess i'll continue to keep an eye out for it or maybe i could call jpophouse...

[edit]
er, never mind. the contents written on the side don't cover everything in the mag! you can see "lareine" written on the cover itself...although i'm confused because the date appears to say 5/21. maybe i really should call them... ^^;
 
The new issue of Cure came out yesterday, it does have the Fanime report, and y'all are stars! I can't believe how many fan pictures they included in the Snap Cruising section! It's only one page, but it seems like they crammed everyone who posed onto it...? geikou, you're in it twice, once in cosplay and once with me, Niji, and Sarah. Bonnie, pastelflower, Psy, and Satsuki and her group are in it.

There are a couple of small pictures from each of the dinners with Kamijo's comments. For the first one, Kamijo was really impressed by the "Cinderella Fantasy" shirt. "Isn't the girl on the left wearing a shirt that could only be purchased from a certain store in Harajuku! Welcome to Japan." (LOL) His 3rd "diary" entry is about the Sunday dinner, particularly Bonnie's painting. There's a photo of it, and he said he was really moved to receive it, thank you!

The 2nd of his diary entries is about before the live. He said he was nervous during rehearsal. Also there's a picture of the cosplayers near the front of the line waiting. Kamijo wrote "Recently it seems that cosplay has decreased in Japan so I was really glad." There's one picture that's a closeup of him and fans' flowers during the live, and he wrote, "The same unchanging scenery as always." (LOL) He's right, that picture looks like it could have been taken at any Lareine concert anywhere.

Did anyone see a limousine...? I never saw one! But there are 3 pictures of Kamijo with this giant white stretch limo. Where did they take those pictures? Like, were they cruising for photo locations, and happened across some prom group's limo, and were like, "OMG, can we take a picture with your car?!" XD Looking at the report, if you weren't there, you'd surely think from the limo pictures that it was all amazing luxurious VIP treatment for Kamijo. Not that he doesn't look great in the limo, but... all I ever heard about or saw was vans so I couldn't help laughing. XD

geikou - I think that's actually LAST month's Cure issue. From the Japanese Cure website, it says that the July issue came out on May 20th under the back issues section. So the new issue would actually be Vol. 35 for August?

I do think Kamijo has to be a bit of a romantic. He may not be a lovey-dovey hearts and candies type of romantic in real life, but there are many different kinds. I don't think he could write and perform the songs he does without at least a little bit of some kind of romanticism in him.

I saw today that 12012 is going to be Oni-con's guest. I'm not a fan of theirs, so I definitely won't be going to Houston. Ah well. More vacation would have been nice but I'll just have to wait until Kamijo/Lareine comes back! :haihai:
 
thanks for the post inertia!!
wow that's so awesome that they got so many photos in there!. kind of embarrassing... i thought only the over-the-top fashionably clad made it on to snap cruising. haha. i hope i dont look like a tool.

and im so happy to hear that he liked my painting. perhaps i should have been like kaine and put my information on it. LOL i didn't dare dream.
LIMOUSINE. OKAY. i dont remember who i had this conversation with at the con- but as he pulled out in the little brown mini van i commented about how ghetto it looked. NO there was NEVER a limo!!! no one saw it!! (because in fact, i recall having had this conversation more than once and with several different people) HAHHAHAHHAHAHAH

why is that so hilarious to me? the poor thing probably didnt even have his own room to sleep in the last night, and he cruised around in a minivan.
but at that moment when he left and i said that, whomever it was that i had been conversing with shot back at me a mocking sneer and remarked in these EXACT (and now, completely ironic) words: "what, you expected a limo?" HAHAHHA then of course we both laughed about how ghetto it really was.
VERY CUTE. i guess the fans who weren't there would love to think that he was treated like royalty. i know i would have liked to think so. -the whole time we were there we kept talking crap about how he wasn't accommodated well enough HAHA. because he was probably checked into a non-smoking room and he was checked out a day early. lol.

oh well, what am i whining about, the point is that they brought him here =] and we had fun running into him like a bunch of stalkers/groupies/fangirls watching him take his cigarette breaks. right girls?? (at least we weren't so bold as to take a bunch of paparazzi pictures of that cute bubble-butt of his...i know i was tempted)
 
hahahahahah omg! that's the same brownish van that pulled away with dir en grey when i saw them at the airport!! hahaha i was in my shuttlebus and they were driving right next to us, i had my face glued to the window!!! i think i scared them. lol

well, if i were kamijo, i would have done the same thing. seeing as how he likes to keep up with his image, it just doesn't seem right that he would be driven around in that....tsk tsk....

but anyway, thanks for the info inertia! what issue was that in again? i must get a copy, and then i can show off all of my new friends to everyone!!! i didn't take a pic for the snap cruising thing, umm where was i? oh yeah i ran off with kaine cuz she wasn't done taking pics of kamijo back at the dealer's room, lol.

that's right bonnie, it was fun being such groupies/fangirls!!! i can imagine kamijo's reaction seeing the mag. what?!! these girls again?!!! they're everywhere!!!!
hahahah just like his reaction when we all ran at him to take our group pic with him in the dealer's room. that look was sooooooo priceless, there was so much shock in there, lol. i actually heard him go "oh....!!!"
 
what do people think of the band Miso Soup? they are making a name for themselves here in uk. check out some of their stuff at www.foundintranslation.co.uk and go to 'slurp up miso soup' section. quite a cool site of things japanese in uk
 
This issue of Cure is vol. 35, the "August" issue released on 6/21.

Bonnie, don't worry, you look cute in your picture! But they misspelled your last name...

I'm not sure how they decide which pictures to print for the snap cruising sections. I wonder if usually they go for a balanced mix of "interesting," "attractive," and "representative"? But this time, something about the selection strikes me as a little odd, because to me it looks like the people in this set were not chosen so much for their image, as for their Lareine-fan-ness, and it's not just cosplayers... I wonder if somebody besides the usual magazine staff had a hand in choosing them? The people who are in this snap cruising look to me to be disproportionately drawn from among the biggest Lareine fans, the ones who were at all the events, or in the front row, or going back again and again for extra signatures, or at the dinners, or always hanging out in the Marriott lobby, etc. ^^;;; It seems weird that I recognize so many people on that page.

pixy, I can see you in one of the live pictures, from the end when Kamijo posed with the audience. You're a little close to his backside... (LOL)

And yeah, minivan. Like the Lareinemobile they use here, except bigger, cleaner, and with fewer dents. I guess that is a step up in luxury, but it's not a limousine. But they found one somewhere. And Kamijo looks so amused/smug in the pictures, like "this is gonna look GREAT in the magazine." XD
 
i'm in there twice? erk. ^^; how do you guys get your cure mags? jpophouse doesn't even have the june issue up (says it's out of stock), the july issue (which went on sale last month) is still listed as upcoming, and of course there's no mention of the august issue. must get!
 
The only place I know of to get single Cure issues is J-xyz but they don't have August's issue listed yet. I called Hot Topic today to see if they might have it, but they only JUST got the June issue in. The woman I spoke with seemed amazed that they carried it at all; I don't think she knew before today!

This snap cruising seems a little different than past ones, though. I don't know how it was done on Sunday, but on Saturday we were posing in front of the Kamijo posters. They also only started announcing it 5 minutes before the dealer's room closed and the guy with the sign was walking up and down the remains of the autograph line. After I took my picture, I looked over and the other people standing around filling out the permission forms were all people I mostly recognized from the live/photo/autograph lines. I only have a couple of issues of Cure and their snap cruisings didn't have band posters in the background. Maybe non-Kamijo/Lareine fans didn't stop by because of the posters.... Just a theory.
