I think that the angry reaction of the fans, who broke away from him (and about which you like to b*tch so much) was pretty natural, considering the way he acted towards his fans ( I don´t mean the thing he didn´t say anything, I mean how he behaved from the start of his career). I don´t say it was right- it wasn´t , but it was natural, following the typical schema of human behaviour. Both the angry and overjoyed fans overreacted.
Miyavi would be a really poor artist, if he let himself down by something like this. He is not the first and not the last who had to encounter the disfavour of one part his fans.
At myspace, he had ca 68thousand friends. After this, the number decreased to 63th.
I think 5 th. isn´t so much considering the whole, is it?
And I think many of them, who at first got angry and disappointed, later after thinking about it and calming down, accepted it and came back.
Some of them, who said their true feelings right after it happened, got "punished". Some of them were wise and waited.
And if he was angry, that was natural as well, but I think he shouldn´t have been angry on fans, but on media, who leaked the news.
Oh well, he could be angry at his fans as well, but that´s not the point.
I think people learned from this..I have learned lot, and a lot about myself as well, now I can look at him again normal and I think I finally understood what he wanted to say to the world..
