kameikokisou)Random Question Wed #18: Who is your favorite Dir en grey member(s) and why?
Kyo
His voice and lyrics interest me. I love how he can push himself to new limits, and takes everything with such passion. I like the way he expresses himself on stage, and he was the first person from the band that my thoughts set on. I wanted to learn more about him, and I have through his lyrics and voice.
For me there's actually many reasons, but I really don't know how to put them all into words.

Alright Tabloid members Risu asked me to do this, so here I am posting this and making a request.
For those who prefer a personal touch, OC is considering accepting normal
greeting cards to send to the band members. If you're interested in collecting
greeting cards and holiday cards for the band, please send me an e-mail at heero_yuy31324@yahoo.com, or PM on LJ. All greeting cards will be shipped to my house, and I will be mailing them off to Risu. If anyone is interested please contact me from the above.
Or for those who don't have an OC account and still rather just send a card over the internet please e-mail me an attached file at heero_yuy31324@yahoo.com.
I need these cards before December 28, 2009, so I can actually have enough time to ship them out! Thanks!

12.9.2009 #2 on the Oricon!!!
This is about the single, "Hageshisa to, kono mune no naka de karamitsuita shakunetsu no yami", thanks to the people who bought it, it reached #2 on the Oricon Weekly Chart!
This is the highest position in the history of DIR EN GREY, so we are happy!!!
This is due to this single and the Budokan being successfully advertised in different media outlets, but we are happy that we could appear on many and various media outlets.
Front Page and Back Page cover of "GiGS" and "CD Data"
"BURRN!" that doesn't really feature Japanese artists
"Ongaku to Hito" which we haven't appeared in a long time
"ROCKIN'ON JAPAN" which was decided by their ardent/eager editor
"Weekly Playboy" which we never ever imagined to be featured in.
etc.
It's wonderful that we were able to be featured in different media.
The very cooperative TV Asahi who we've announced as one of the main sponsors of Nihon Budoukan also did various things for us, we are also thankful that it immediately sold out.
Have you watched the "DIR EN GREY「TOUR09 ALL VISIBLE THINGS」FINAL～souzou kara kyoumei～"?
It was completely filled with content from an interview revolving around the 9/15 Shinkiba STUDIO COAST, foreign tour videos, band introduction etc.
The one in charged of this Special Program, Mr. Yuudai Hirano said that after the broadcast there was a lot of good response and they were able to make a lot of suggestions to the network. They've promptly decided to rebroadcast it! If you feel inclined to please send tons of feedback to Fuji TV. We would be thankful if for the feedback of people who hasn't seen it (we want to see it, please have it on terrestrial tv, etc)!
TV Asahi, Fuji TV, MTV and including other broadcast networks, they all place importance in their customer's voices so I think that they would use everyone's feedback. So please it would make us happy if you would cooperate and bolster up DIR EN GREY.
Also,
CD stores too, considering the recent condition that music is not selling much, there were a lot of times that we couldn't grasp the availability of the CD, the initial amount (order amount before the release) was set to the max but after the release, places where it sold out kept on appearing one after another. When purchasing it if possible please make a reservation.
It's a tough world...
By the way, thanks to everyone for the past few years, DIR EN GREY's number of release has not gone down at all!!!
I've written several things, but thank you very much for everything!

kameikokisou)Volume 45 - Shinya Dr. nemunemu no daigyakusyu
Translated by Nao at www.orchestrated-chaos.com
~landscape~
Hello everyone. I am currently writing this in fall. And if I were to say fall(autumn), it's mushroom gathering. Therefore the mushroom-loving Dr. Nemunemu went to the heart of the mountain to gather [mushrooms].
It's been 20 years since I went Shiitake gathering. I don't remember much from that time but I was remembering more as I made my way through the path of the deep mountain. There were a lot of insects along the road. There were especially a lot of spider nests[webs] of course, there were spiders there as well. Dr. Nemunemu who hates spiders and insects became a nervous wreck by just walking through. I suddenly arrived at the farm while thinking, "They [the spiders] won' t probably come [for me]-".
~food~
I am supposed to be happy that I am surrounded by my favorite Shiitake mushrooms but when I saw the Shiitake it felt a bit eerie.
~mushrooms~
