What makes me angry is his lack of foresight - why join a band as an official member, a serious band - if you know you can't commit due to your other projects? Why not just take a support role? Kaya and the rest are committed to Femme Fatale. Tana makes it work even as he performs with Gekijou Tenor. Kaya has his solo shows and Schwarz Stein activities. Iori wanted to quit as a performer after cocklobin but decided to give it another shot. All of what I've seen on the western fandom might make one think that this is just a side-project, but it's not. Iori, Kaya, Tana, and Toshi are all treating this as something real.
He shouldn't have been part of the band to begin with. Fuck him. I liked his drumming, but this reflects so poorly on his character.
I'm pissed that this had to happen to Femme Fatale so early in their career. Right before their first album. What an asshole. It's so apparent that he had to bow out once the band became something that he'd have to actually commit to, and I am like two beers away from telling him off on Twitter.
