Peace Heavy mk II 7200 Posted September 27, 2013 Did Lunch Voxx ever really do anything but show up on the mind garden omnibuses? Edit: Wait, I'm thinking of "Lunch Vox!?" No longer caring : / Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TokyoCinderella 77 Posted September 28, 2013 I don't wanna sound elitist, but I'm betting this has nothing to do with Ensoku. The "this is a pen" phrase is something of a... joke here? In the former English curriculum in Japanese public schools, it was one of the first phrases kids were taught. You still hear it all the time. As an obvious foreigner, when kids (and even sometimes adults) see you on the street sometimes they get excited and call out to you with ANY English words they know... and sometimes it just happens to be "THIS IS A PEN!!"

nekkichi 6043 Posted September 28, 2013 I don't wanna sound elitist, but I'm betting this has nothing to do with Ensoku. you sound like one of those "sadie neva copy dir en grey so stop hating on them" people tbh this band obv is never to come close to ensoku's flawless talent and incredible creativity, but it's p. transparent where that name comes from, it's not like they took some 1993-started VK cliche and went w. it Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TokyoCinderella 77 Posted September 28, 2013 lol what. Just thought I'd give my 2 cents towards a possible explanation for this. And I don't see how this relates to sadie or Dir -- two bands I don't give a craaaap about -- whatsoever. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

In the former English curriculum in Japanese public schools, it was one of the first phrases kids were taught. Personally I know it's nothing about Ensoku, it's a sort of joke (looks like "keep your hand of my girls" band's who have the same name as a Good charlotte's song, but nothing to do with this band), but thank's for explain the possible signification of their band's name choice Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sebbivism 134 Posted September 28, 2013 I only think of the VERY nervous Japanese fan of Dakota Fanning and when interviewing her he's like "This is a pen" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cruel-crucible 89 Posted November 19, 2013 The vocalist's ameblo, if you're interested. He's been giving me peta for some time and I had no idea who he was. I actually thought of ensoku immediately when I saw his blog and thought he had something to do with them as well, but nah :/ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
