[MOD] Tsunami and Earthquake Japan

Mar 11, 2011 14:50

Today (or yesterday for those in Japan) Japan is hit with it's biggest Earthquake in 140 years. I'm sure we're all very worried about our boys and the situation in the country itself.

This post will keep you updated about the rumors and confirmed information that is going around about the Hey!Say!JUMP members and the situation of the entire country. Any information, rumors or updates are to be posted in this post.

This post is made so the community won't be flooded by rumors and unconfirmed information. I will posts the rumors here too, but please understand that rumors are still rumors and not confirmed by Johnny's fanclub.

General statics and news:
For a list of all the news updates (because there are too much for me to keep up with) visit this site. It keeps you updated about every little thing that happens in Japan, whether it's further aftershocks or the Nuclear Power Plants.

Hey!Say!JUMP related news:
JFC states that all the members are safe. This means they are the very least alive and able to breathe on their own.

Rumors (these rumors are from unreliable sources, please do not regard them as the truth unless said otherwise):
Yuto and Daiki are in the hospital with minor injuries. Yamada, Yabu and NYC's Yuma also suffer from minor injuries. Hikaru and Chinen's houses are completely destroyed by the flood.

I will update this post frequently, the moment I know more.

Members are allowed to post here, your worries about the members, prayers and rumors and confirmed news.

Pray for all the victims. Not just Japan.

Edit from you mod, because I am too tired to comment to everyone individually. This is a direct copy/paste from what I posted at @ heysay_comm

Dear Rabbits, this is your mod hikarinoniji from hey_say and I have been getting a lot of questions regarding the disaster going on in Japan.
First of all, I do not live in Japan nor am I Japanese to begin with. I am just a fan like the rest of you. I made post in the community regarding Japan and JUMP and I have something to say about the comments made in this post.
Yamada's sister dying, Raiya being shipped to America, Shintarou missing... These are some really awful rumors some of you are spreading. May I remind you guys this is a disaster? People are dying. This is not the time to make up silly fanfic esque rumors.
Is there any ground? A solid base for you to be saying those things? Johnny's official fanclub has been sending out e-mails with information. If our boy's, or any other Johnny's idol's family would have died, been missing, severely injured or any of these horrible scenario's we would have been told.
There are rumors about several JUMP members rumored to be injured. Minor injuries. This is possible, most likely even. The earthquake, tsunami and even the nuclear threat have wounded a lot of people. Our boys won't be speared just because they're Johnny's. But that doesn't mean all of them will die a horrible gruesome death either, same goes for their families.
This is not a movie.
Japan is in a horrible state right now and as much as it pains me to say this; Japan is not in a state to be concerned about your idols. Or let me say it this way; they are not more concerned about your idols than about any other person living in Japan.
Wait until the biggest threats are over, until Japan and the entire world as a clear view on how big this disaster is. I'm sure entertainment news will pop up, official, by agency clarified news.
For now, it's been confirmed and reported by JFC *Johnny's Fan Club that all JUMP members are safe. This means they are alive, living and breathing on their own and most likely are walking around somewhere in Japan. Until we hear more, please... Stop spreading false fan-made rumors.
And please, don't give me the argument; but it's written in Japanese. Because honestly, I know Japanese. If I write in Japanese that Takaki is really an Alien from outer space, coming to the earth to suck your brains out, it does not mean it's true.
I hope I made a point here without looking like a bitch. I am concerned about the boys, I really am, but we all have better to do than to make up stories. Let's pray, hope, donate, whatever you think is best for /Japan/.
頑張れ日本!

I am honestly sorry if this is stepping out of the line as a moderator, but the spreading of (most likely false rumors) really needs to stop somewhere. I understand your concerns, I honestly do but please look out for official statements, instead of scaring the living daylight out of our fandom.

Last edit and I'm pretty sure all of you can read. If I see anyone commenting and going on whether they are okay or not, I'm going to close comments for this post. Seriously, I understand you are concerned about your idols, but enough is enough.

On Friday March 11, after The 2011 Sendai earthquake and tsunami
(Tohoku Chiho Taiheiyo-oki Jishin) has happened,
Johnny’s fans all over the world has been worried about the safety of Johnny’s talents.
The Johnny’s Family Club has already confirmed the safety of everyone.
Thank you for worrying about our artists even in an urgent
situation. We sincerely hope that people who have been affected by this disaster
will be able to return back to their normal lives.

Johnny’s Family Club
From all the artists

Everyone stands for; every Johnny's Talent. This also goes for Hey!Say!JUMP. They are /alright/. Their safety is confirmed. Our boys are fine.

Now please be concerned about those that are not. Please keep in mind that this Earthquake hit Japan. Not Johnny's Entertainment.
