Ah, they're one of my favorites too~ And well, I don't think there's any such thing as a "late listener". Any fan, new or old is always welcome. Also, "might"? Feel free to speak to me as much you wish! I certainly don't mind.

Hello! Welcome here, no need to be afraid. I've made tons of friends here over time, it just goes to show that good majority of people here are very nice and welcoming. Also, for the record, I like Plastic Tree as well, so yay? I don't know. Yeah. :'D

r u da real magatsu.

Hello. ,o, Welcome to MH.

grrrrrreat.

Hello, welcome here.

Having some mixed feelings about this one. I would have rather heard about a hiatus than a departure of a member.

yay, nice news.

Hullo~ Welcome to MH.

hah u gott mi brudda :^)

Welcome to MH

Hm, well, doesn't seem quite likely at the moment, sadly? I suppose they are just busy with their own projects right now. ;o;

I should have known you were into that, senedjem.

ROSIE ROSE I already know you but hi anyway cuz y'know :^)

Hi there~ I'm rather fond of Kibouya Honpo as well

brb deactivating facebook account completely.

Hm, got a 10. Sounds about right. Most of my "strength" is in self-sufficiency and vanity it seems. ;o;

Halloo. Welcome to MH

Well, while I agree with what the majority of people here said, I won't bother adding to it. I'm sure everyone gets the hint now that it is rather pointless to do something like this, so no need for more. With that said, good luck to you I guess? Hopefully you'll get things all worked out.

I don't think I've ever been this afraid of some outbreak in forever.

rip in peace America.

Ah, the idol community. Of course it is obvious that groups like these were made to feed into the sexual desires of some (or lots of) people, especially men. Men who are often considered "otaku" or "hikikomori" by standard society (or even consider themselves those two terms). The whole point of them not being allowed to have boyfriends is so they can maintain that "pure and innocent" look that brings in the crowds. However, it's ridiculous to say that these girls are 100% exploited and involved in sex trade. I have no doubt that some MAY be involved in it, but the good majority have went on to better things. Even taking up an acting or other solo career after they have graduated. Now, with that aside, there's a good amount of these idols that have also went on to adult film industry/gravure-related things, but that is vastly different from any sex trade. With that said, I'm not particularly against the idol phenomena but I'm not with it either. My reason for not being against it is simply because these ladies know what they are getting into, or at least, they should by now. I do have to agree that putting a young girl in some sexy lingerie and making her dance around semi-seductively with other barely-clothed girls is a little more than unnerving, but in Japan, this stuff almost seems like the norm.

Ahh, yay. Looking forward to another PT release

Try looking up people like Ed Gein or Carl Tanzler. Some creepy shit right there.
