Duwang 676 Posted July 27, 2018 (edited) It has been announced that after their oneman at Shibuya O-WEST on August 28th, Yusuke will depart from the band and retire from music due to dystonia. As a result DADAROMA will pause activities. They will make another announcement at the oneman.

The Piass 3472 Posted July 27, 2018 Considering how their music has become awful, this hiatus is a good thing. 1 suji reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Masato 365 Posted July 27, 2018 I guess they will announce that from now onward they will join Koichi and Genki to form a real vocaloid group! Possibly with the usage of instruments, but probably not.... 1 Wakarimashita reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LIDL 692 Posted July 27, 2018 That is unfortunate. They haven't been here that long. Just about 3-4 years iirc? Hope Yusuke feel better soon. And may this hiatus help them to improve artistically and sonically for when they return. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ShanethVarosa 1209 Posted July 27, 2018 This is a pretty severe diagnosis, so I would have to say leaving the band and a hiatus is likely the only appropriate course of action. If they choose to replace him, I look forward to their return. They’ve definitely become one of my all time faves. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Shmilly 519 Posted July 27, 2018 Wow, that's a shocker. Gutted about the hiatus but grateful to be attending possibly their last shows. All the best to Yusuke for his treatment and recovery. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
emmny 4139 Posted July 27, 2018 damn yusuke was one of the best drummers in the game ;___; hope he gets better and DDRM find an equally good replacement 1 platy reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wakarimashita 317 Posted July 27, 2018 (edited) I wonder how long it would take for Yusuke to feel good enough to perform without hurting himself, at this point I'd rather wait for him to come back if it's a matter of months, but I can't really tell since I know nothing about dystonia...

ahnchc 309 Posted July 27, 2018 This is so sudden. I'm extremely surprised and actually a bit worried for Yusuke. I hope he recovers well and safely. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ro plz 1290 Posted July 27, 2018 I just read what dystopia is... This ain't no joke. Hope he feels better soon. The lil bit ive checked out from them is pretty enjoyable so I look forward to their comebyke. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Melon Soda 23 Posted July 27, 2018 Quote Focal dystonia most typically affects people who rely on fine motor skills—musicians, writers, surgeons, etc. It is thought that the excessive motor training those skills require may contribute to the development of dystonia as their cortical maps become enlarged and begin to overlap. A wretched, wretched disorder robbing the world of its best talents 2 Wakarimashita and suji reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

suji 8317 Posted July 27, 2018 I just looked at some videos on dystonia patients....this is fucking awful. He says he only has it on his upper right arm, but I'm scared that it may progress all over. I wish the very best for Yusuke. As for those who are saying the band needed this hiatus because "their music sucks anyway"...shame on you. This announcement was very sudden, and losing someone like Yusuke over something as devastating as this is a huge blow to the band, and this man may have to deal with this for the rest of his life. Shame on you. 14 1 Sakurai-san, Alkaloid, Yukimoto and 12 others reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Karma’s Hat 3107 Posted July 27, 2018 Is withdrawing like departing, or does that mean he’ll stay as a member but they’ll have a session drummer from now until the hiatus? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He is leaving the band and retiring from music after their last scheduled live. Perhaps its poor word choice on my part. 1 1 Karma’s Hat and platy reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
platy 3018 Posted July 27, 2018 Dystonia doesn't have a cure and it can make someone's life very miserable and painful. I looked after someone who lived with dystonia. I love yusuke as a drummer so this really blows 2 yakihiko and ahnchc reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kiryu999 3336 Posted July 27, 2018 Wow that's unexpected. That's a shame, Yusuke is a very good and skilled drummer, hope he can recover and DADAROMA can comeback from this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tetsu_sama69 1119 Posted July 27, 2018 That's a damn shame and I'd glad he was able to be with the band as long as he could. It'll be hard to replace such a talented drummer. I hope the rest of the band can carry on in time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
