From what I understand based on the tweets of the Japanese fans - at the DELUHI reunion it was said that:
 
- JURI, back around Deluhi's disbandment time, was having problems with his throat/vocal cords and needed treatment (which he eventually got, but it took time - thankfully he seems ok now!). At that point however singing was challenging/painful...
 
- LEDA wanted to replace Juri because of Juri's problems with his voice and started looking to recruit a new vocalist with the intention of firing Juri from the band WITHOUT telling Juri any of the above or discussing it with him. Leda intended to keep Aggy and Sujk.
 
- AGGY did not agree with Leda's approach of going behind Juri's back and it also seems they had some disagreements about Aggy's bass sounds being replaced so Aggy announced that he would quit. At this point ALL MY RESPECT GOES TO AGGY - he took the blame of disbanding on himself, did not discuss any of this "dirt" in public or create negativity around Leda in any way, and he apparently did not tell Juri either of Leda's plans to fire Juri. It looks like Juri found out about this much later and apparently Juri has flat out refused to do a reunion a couple of years in a row when approached by Abe-san and Leda. It is said that he had eventually forgiven Leda and agreed to do the reunion & Aggy agreed too. Ultimately the amount of mean comments addressed to Aggy all these years is unbelievable!! He was blamed for ruining Deluhi and what not...when it wasn't even his fault...
 
- SUJK - not sure what his position was regarding all this, but he has always seemed to get along well with both Juri and Aggy. The pics & videos of him and Juri posted by Abe-san around the reunion are super cute!! And there's also a pic of Sujk wearing a breakin' holiday bracelet with Aggy.
 
 
DELUHI - though they have all grown up, I personally do not believe Deluhi is coming back... I dearly love their music, but to me Leda has ruined the trust between the memebers - not blaming him in any way... just saying.. he was young and made a mistake.. we all do... it seems he does regret it but nothing can be done at this point. With FED he got a new vocalist and a new bassist - they had potential but imho Leda has carried over some of his leadership attitudes and he also had a ton of side projects diverting his focus from the band. As for BREAKIN'HOLIDAY - after the Deluhi reunion both Juri and Aggy have posted a tweet clearly stating that though they are grateful to Deluhi, they are now to be considered Juri and Aggy of breakin'holiday. I personally find the band very enjoyable, Juri's voice is wonderful, they are experimenting with their sound and style, it's interesting to watch them grow as a band. They are super active social media and post a ton of off-shot stuff.
 
In the end, I wish them all success, to all ex-Deluhi members, to all soon to be ex-FED members and to current breakin' holiday members. I truly believe they all have their strengths and talents but they are also all people and people do mess up sometimes....
 
That's all I had to say - just wanted this to be out there.

Someone translate this into Japanese so Leda can read it.

oh come on. I thought he would be the last who leaves the band...
but it seems they finally have "musical disagreement" or smth like that

midori's comment:
 

oh god, the day I've been waiting is finally here: they'll parody Kiryu.
 
edit: they'll release "Hyakki yakou bus" on May 16th. that's the only thing I got now at 3am.
 
I can't wait
 
 
 

It can be quite intimidating, yeah.  
 
If this helps, here's a little breakdown of their post-2000 albums so you can get a general feel:
 - ONE LIFE, ONE DEATH (2000): dads discover science fiction
 - 極東 I LOVE YOU (2002): dads discover science fiction but with layers*
 - MONA LISA OVERDRIVE (2003): dads discover cyberpunk*
 - 十三階は月光 (2005): dads dress up for Halloween and drink a bit too much but it goes much better than expected
 - 天使のリボルバー (2007): dads being dads
 - memento mori (2009): dads being dads but more rad, how do you do, fellow kids?
 - RAZZLE DAZZLE (2010): dads stumble into a disco, drink a bit too much but this time it does not go well
 - 夢見る宇宙 (2012): dads being dads who took their medication
 - 或いはアナーキー (2014): dads could not find their medication... hilarious results!
 - アトム未来派 No. 9 (2016): I could not find the dads but this background music is kinda okay
 - No. 0 (2018): dads have become cyborgs, I have become a dad while listening, feels weird man
 
* originally these two albums were imagined by the band as one concept double-album
 
My personal recommendations would be MONA LISA OVERDRIVE, 十三階は月光 and 或いはアナーキー btw.

Takadanobaba ZEAL LINK will be closed on April 14 due to staff shortages and will be integrated with the ZEAL LINK shop in Shibuya the next day.

they made an official twitter which is making me get ahead of myself and hoping this is going to be more than one show
 
 

after thirteen years, deadman will hold a oneman live, titled oneman live 2019 -before the dawn-, at Tokyo LIQUIDROOM ebisu on the ninth of September, 2019. the group will consist of 眞呼 (Mako) (Vo) and aie (G). Support members will be Tetsu from MERRY on bass and Asanao from lynch. on drums. nothing about whether this is a full-scale resumption of activities or just a one-day thing.

Does someone explain this to me? Possible new meeting? a first encounter with someone? Merveilles? '___'

Plus, when they do fanservice I feel even less guilty about it. It's less cringey than shipping yourself with them tbh.

bandmen and bangya are made for each other😞

Ok, so the pepepe twitter just distilled some stuff out of this HUGE MITSU report from the girl who took the recordings and was mitsu for him....

There are over 200 posts about their relationship.... @_@ I am not reading all of that now.... but the vibe is slightly different here... idk

I think you have to be realistic, too.
People fuck around, people are mean (I guess you could get some kind of cursing of anyone, if you know their triggers), so yeah. 
Bad behaviour really not limited by VK only. If you insult someone's sports team long enough, you will get a similar reaction.
 
Disappointed, but not surprised! 
The thing that's curious here is the twitter still liking and supporting some Kaitou tweets and tweets from fans that for example say "I love this and this song". Does it only want attention? Or are they still fans? 
It also said in the bio that the account doing the exposing is not related to the victim....?!?
As always in the VK circle the event happening (DM dates 4/18) to the posting there is a 6 months difference. So things were not cut off immediately and the recording was done on purpose, too. Bangya waiting for things to go sour and then exposing people.
 
VK is a bad power play, we all know it.
And being meta about it, warning people in your songs about it, does not make you a better person.

Off topic: The first place went to Gene for Sick2 for being ugly as a naked mole without make up and fucking his way through their Japan tour.

Ok! So here I have an exposure twitter account that did audio recordings of Pton being an asshole and spitting somewhere:
 
(@pepepe_peton)
https://twitter.com/pepepe_peton?s=09
 
So that's why they introduced the audio feature into Tanuki! *lol* 
He was voted to be the second biggest dumbass in 2018, because people feared that if he got in 1st place the band would make a song about it.
Lol lol lol lol lol
 
I don't know if it was S&M play or if he really treated someone randomly bad. You can't tell the circumstances from an recording.
 
If it was non consentual, it's bad and this account is rightfully exposing him. 

Thanks for the new user title

Looking at that expanded Instagram profile...still at a loss as to why someone is lecturing Visual Kei fans about music piracy, of all things. Where have they been for the last 15-20 years?

I don't give a shit about X Japan. I've never listened to them and I have no desire to start.
