Kay, lemme try to explain. Sorry for the bad english heh
Eru is more hated than usual hahaha Its not like a9 or Yumehito...These are just rumours, but Eru doesn't try to hide himself.
He always reply to Tanuki comments on his blog (maybe thats why he deleted all blog posts 2 or 3 times) and call these girls "fat underdogs" or say stuff like "make a boyfriend" "i love our anti's too, because of you we get famous" HAHAHAH THATS HILARIOUS, RIGHT? I think he's a genious, but yeah, he get a loooooooooooot of hate because of this.
Because of it, being an Awake fan is such a 'shame' for the japanese bangyas, so i dont think they gonna get too many more fans.
Also, he should stop with the 'sex' tweets, its getting annoying hahahaha
He's like "Let's make sex in Nagoya today", "I love to do sex", "I wanna make sex with my fans" blablablabla OKAY WE GOT IT ALREADY
And yep, the puching thing is true too.
Some bands have good indie labels, so being major or not wouldn't make any difference for them.
Kiryu, for example, sell more than many major bands, have a nice distribution and production on their B.P Records Label.
We can say these bands are kinda lucky...?
Being major wouldn't change anything on this case, or if does, it would be in a band way, like more people telling to them what to do or not...
So i think w/e for them keep as indies or go major.
