    From what I can understand, they sent people emails saying things like "Your grandfather left you xxx yen as an inheritance. If you pay a handling fee/commission, you'll get the money."

     

    Apparently they swindled people out of about $1 000 000  (1 hundred million yen) in total?

    Oh my god.

    So it is a Japanese variation of Nigerian prince email.

    I am surprised that they have managed to get so much money. People's stupidity and greed know no bounds.

    I had to make sure which guy in the video is Wataru and tbh, I've seen a lot of larger bandmen. Can't blame the guy. Most people would leave if they were made fun of in such a way.

    Could you name a few? I'm just curious. I can't recall a single bandoman who is over 100kg.

     

    There was also a bassist from an obscure band called Drop who was thicc.

    I know that Loki from More is slightly overweight (you can see his fat). There's also Dezert's bassist.

     

    But this guy has such a massive second chin and bulging stomach - I can't recall a single bandoman who is as huge as him.

    They did make a whole video teasing him for being fat, with the rest of the label's bands, so tbh can't blame him for leaving

     

     

    Can't blame the guy for leaving.

    Regardless - the guy is huge for Japanese standards. I don't think this fact influenced the band well considering that many fans choose a band for the looks.

     

    So for sure visual kei is not for him. The industry is not gonna change over one snowflake.

     

    As for the bullying part and such video even existing - well, the president of Bloom (the blond guy in the video) is a legendary kusoman who was supposedly involved in many shady things. What else could be expected from him?

    Between DEATHGAZE/DARRELL, I get the impression Ai is super dedicated to his sound, but others don't jive with his intensity—Hence all the line up changes throughout both bands. Thoughts?

    What line-up changes?

    Hazuki left in the beginning of Deathgaze because he wanted to have more creative input.
    The second guy left because he got married, I think?

    Then there's was Naoto before Takaki joined - I mean, 5 years in a band is a pretty long run.

    And Darrel's lineup is stable since they were all support member of Ai's solo project.

    Can't see anything out of the ordinary here.

    But yeah, Ai is dedicated to his sound?


  5. Franlky, I do think that it's a good thing for Dimlim that they drop the visuals.

     

    After all, to the majority of female audience jrock musicians are a thing - simply a projection of their adrogynous perfect males from the dreams. The audience couldn't care less.

     

    So if Retsu is truly fed up with it - good for him.
