Takeru, 2008-2009 part 2: November 2008
2008-11-01 14:28:44 - I think I'm going to catch a cold. It seems really popular, since Chiyu-kun has a cold too.
2008-11-04 16:46:33 - The lives were great, thank you! Also, thanks for the presents, I was surprised. From here on I'm going on a mission, we're figuring where to shoot the next PV (UMBILICAL).
2008-11-04 23:46:56 - I borrowed a ton of CDs again, some 50 pieces! This time it's a J-pop feature! I also got some MUSE and Black Eyed Peas, I haven't listened to them yet. Oh, yeah, seems like I'm allowed to talk about BeatRock Love now. I went to watch Arayan on stage, it's been a while since I saw a real theatre stage. The feeling was a bit strange.
2008-11-05 22:47:34 - Okay! It's been a while since these three people gathered! If you guess who are they, your question will be answered. Of course I'll only answer the first three.
2008-11-05 22:49:46 - I forgot the photo again (laugh)
2008-11-05 23:01:59 - Really hard eh? Okay, a hint. Yeah, you all got it right, Yellow's me. Silver is a member of SuG, and Boots is a handsome bassist! These three have known each other since being neighbors for three years.
2008-11-05 23:15:41 - One right! So here's a riddle as a hint: What's the treasured item? SuG is truly whereabouts. That's absolute. If it's an item, I think it's an armor ring? (laugh) And Boots is a bassist.
2008-11-05 23:19:54 - Second one right! But somehow this person didn't write a question (laugh) Another hint, apart from myself they're both 6-strings!
2008-11-05 23:33:27 - Hey, hey. If you all get them right it's no good! And seems like some of you can't see the hints. If you arrange them it'll make sense! Here's Silver. "In SuG, he plays a 6-string instrument." Why do you write many 4-string players (laugh) And then Boots. "A 6-string bassist in a band. (Handsome.)" Why do you give me guitarist and vocalist names (laugh) Game continues!
2008-11-05 23:42:48 - Okay, answers to two people amongst the right answers!
Q. Today's dinner is?
A. Beef ribs and boiled barley and rice with grated yam.
Q. Doing _____ makes you happy?
A. Watching movies in bed and wearing clothes I like.
Correct answers were Yuji-kun and Gou-kun (Megamasso). Maatan plays a 7-string and Chiyu's a 4-string bassist, 6-string bassists are rare so it was supposed to be a simple quiz (｡・ε・｡) You guys didn't realize it but Yuji wrote the answer in a Friends Only post. (laugh)
2008-11-06 14:55:24 - I have fever.
2008-11-08 11:03:43 - I watched the Dirty Chaos Beauty DVD* and was deeply moved (laugh)
2008-11-09 11:17:30 - I'll have to absorb everyone's health in the live! Oh yeah, in December's oneman we'll sell the first of the 26.8. oneman DVDs!
2008-11-09 12:54:06 - This is Meguro-san. He's really fast on his board! We're different rebels, him and I.
2008-11-09 22:22:21 - Thank you, Yokohama, I think this was the strongest live until now!
2008-11-10 00:30:45 - I listened to Umbilical. I like it. The lyrics are perfect. Ah, I'm singing my own praises (laugh) An interviewer said to us that they'll listen to this a 100 times. It made me happy. Honestly I'm a bit embarrassed of the lyrics though... But it'd touch me deeply to hear if someone'd cry to this song. Really, I want to make SuG a place for everyone. A place to cry in to those without one, a place to laugh in to those without one, a place to shout in to those without one. We can't do it without you guys. It's fine saying a live is a date, and though I'd tease you I really want to love you so much. I blame this on the abnormal pure. That's very much like me. I want to see your everything, your happy faces, sad faces, worried faces. And the bewitched faces, show them just to me.

2008-11-11 21:58:01 - UMBILICAL PV preview is up!
2008-11-11 23:17:41 - Yeah, the black hair I photoed earlier is in the PV! Oh, and we finished the Tricolor Color Roll towels!
2008-11-11 23:37:55 - It's the greatest masterpiece! Toweltoweltowel!
2008-11-14 21:34:26 - Found this strange guy.
2008-11-16 12:48:10 - Today's the day of Teebra's co-appearance! It'll be so epic!
2008-11-17 17:55:06 - Yesterday was great, thank you! Now my neck hurtsssss! I overdid it at Teebra's live! (laugh) Teebra only practised for an hour the other day at the last moment! By the way, I've had an uncomfortable pain in my left shoulder for a while so I came for this new electric treatment. I tried needle treatment, but it was no good. I wonder if it'll get an inflammation, will it go all the way to the bone? It's not good for me to act so violently all the time. Damn.
2008-11-17 19:57:11 - Oh yeah, I went to a sale, they had stuff of a bran I like a lot! Also, I attended Malko Malka's exhibition, their spring collection looks wonderful. I have fashion fever! Aren't stajans [TN: stadium jacket, スタジャン. A jacket with a team's logo on it.] pretty popular these days? I've seen many cute ones from SLY.
2008-11-17 20:18:55 - My boom! Stud jewelry! I won't tell you where I got them though, mimicry's no good!
2008-11-17 20:23:28 - A point! It's cheaper to buy plastic versions of leather x studs. Plus rubber's easy to wear. It's the best (>_<)
2008-11-17 23:52:39 - [Posted possible original concept of Sentimental Gang lyrics.]
2008-11-18 00:40:21 - [Posts another long complaint over fake Takeru controversy.] Also, if communication becomes dull an words lose their interior... I don't want this society to become like that. This was the gentle gentle gentle Takeru explaining how he doesn't want anyone to get hurt, especially not his beloved papiko. Holy crap, I really seem gentle. That's because I believe in the ladies first -rule. Sorry, that's a lie, both the appearance and the contents are a lie (laugh) Okay, I got out of bed a while ago just to return a CD I rented. Yeah, that's true (laugh) I wish someone else would take it for me.
2008-11-18 13:42:50 - I got into the train going to the wrong direction... This always happens to me, I enter the station from the wrong entrance and automatically go to the right. It all looks the same anyway, it's hard to understand!
2008-11-18 13:57:41 - I was slow to notice AND the speed was fast so I ended up in the starting point on the map. (laugh)
[TN: Idiot. |D]
2008-11-19 19:29:50 - Where is this? Suspicious!
2008-11-19 19:43:12 - It's okay that you good girls don't know what this place is!
2008-11-19 20:08:59 - Yeah, I don't know where am I, myself, anymore! (laugh)
2008-11-19 23:19:13 - I got caught, help me! (laugh)
2008-11-19 23:51:18 - We're shooting for Zy! So I'm guilty of doing whatever I pleased in the SM room. I like the world weird ☆★ Please look forwards to Takeru butchering the lolita fashion!
2008-11-20 11:41:01 - Damn it was cold in the clothes I picked today. (laugh)
2008-11-22 19:30:33 - A winterish radio show! It's starting!
2008-11-23 23:52:07 - I ran into something of a childhood friend at the station! It's been 3 years, a lot has changed. I feel like since I started a band a second chapter in my life began and time has stopped since then.
2008-11-24 19:42:55 - Made a good buy. It's just a collection of short stories, but I got something by Kawashima Makoto. I love "The Phone is Shouting"**. It's a really good realistic story that made me think about my own life too. Although living every day isn't simple there's a lot of happiness to it. I've changed a lot since childhood, and it makes me feel like I'd left someone behind in the past. Makes me wonder why do we exist to begin with. But if you go according to "as you sow, so shall you reap", I'd like to continue my life the way it is. True, during high school I was a guy about whom people would say, "he's depressed" because I had a bit different views. I didn't like hearing it.
2008-11-26 20:15:10 - Micchan's room is so hot! We're working on an awesome piece! Dance! Dance! Dance in ecstasy!
2008-11-29 14:27:18 - Gloves! Awesome huh!
2008-11-30 15:18:56 - I feel sick, I hate ships. This is Mr Delicate who gets motion sickness. Chiyu-kun isn't really drunk so the construction must be different***. This was Mr Groggy who wants an Anywhere Door****.
2008-11-30 18:51:21 - A struggle to death. It's like going to a convenience store.
2008-11-30 18:52:41 - These must be Maatan's footprints!
2008-11-30 19:18:01 - If you'd follow the footsteps you'd encounter Maatan! Except that they weren't Maatan's footprints. Oh yeah, tomorrow we'll play a new song! Sapporo first show, enjoy ☆
*A SuG live DVD.
**"Denwa ganatteiru". It could also be "Denwa ga natteiru", which has many meanings, for example "the phone is crying". The title only has a kanji for the phone, so it's hard to make out.
***I don't really know. It might also be a pun: as a word, "chiyu" can mean "cure".
**** Anywhere Door, or どこでもドア, is an item from Doraemon. Takeru is still wishing his fans to send him one of these. (Reference to a very, very old post.)
2008-11-04 16:46:33 - The lives were great, thank you! Also, thanks for the presents, I was surprised. From here on I'm going on a mission, we're figuring where to shoot the next PV (UMBILICAL).
