N/a
23. What would you do if you saw any JRocker walking down the street in your town?
I absolutely love Ryuutarou of Plastic Tree now honestly. If I ever had the chance to meet him I would give him a letter and a present and make him something; of course I'd have to mail them to him since I wouldn't have those things handy meeting him walking down the street, hah.. I would also tell him that his lyrics are so deep and beautiful and sad and genuine that they move me to tears. The latter also applies somewhat to Satsuki. Of course I'd also be floored if I met Mana or Ruki or Mako. I think my knees would buckle if I saw any of the artists I like, look up to and am inspired by.
24. Which JRocker are you most in love/lust with?
This one'd actually somewhat hard for me. But if I thought about it really deeply..I think somehow I would keep coming back to Ryuutarou. I've learned not to feel more for them than beyond a fan though because people really do disappoint you. We're all human anyway after all.
25. Which three Jrockers would you most love to meet in person (Dead or alive)?
Ryuutarou, Satsuki, Ruki, Hideto and Mana. I can count, I know that's five but three is far too limiting with all the wonderful visual kei bands out there.
26. Three things you would like to say to/ask them?
I would tell Ryutaro that his music has helped me through emotions I always somehow found harder to express than most people and how much he's touched me with his lyrics and that I think that he must be such a beautiful person inside to write the type of lyrics that he does.
I would tell Satsuki (and will since I'm sending him fan mail) that he is one of the few people that even without meeting I can honestly say is a good person. And that his constant sadness and pain actually hurts me as a fan. Because whether I can help it or not I see my favorite musicians as people just like anyone else, as opposed to celebrities, and I can relate to much of their emotions.
I would tell Ruki that I think it's amazing how he went for his dreams even though he didn't have his parent's support and I understand what it's like to come from a broken and unsupportive family like that and that his lyrics are very deep and moving.
I would tell Hideto that I wish I'd known about him as a child of 10 years old before he died. Somehow I feel like I will never get to meet so many of the people that I look up to in my life and that does hurt me. People may say you never knew them and it's true I didn't in person but when do you ever -really- know someone? My mother lived with a man for 18 years who didn't hesitate to dump his entire family in a time-span of a year.
I would tell Mana that his clothing brand and beautiful elegance showed me who I was meant to be and that I'm eternally grateful to him for it and if it weren't for liking him so much I wouldn't have continued being interested in and discovering all the wonderful visual kei bands I like now. And I will get this message to him.
27. Which three Jrockers can you relate to most?
Ryuutarou, Satsuki and Mana.
28. Which three Jrock songs do you constantly replay?
Just three?.. You're joking, right?
This is going to be a hard one...
Plastic Tree-sanatorium
Plastic Tree-maka na ito
the GazettE-baretta
29. Do you have any Jrockers as your background?
Ryuutarou.
30. Which Jrocker would you most like to get fashion/makeup advice from?
Honestly, I've always been wanting to try the dark visual kei styles, so it would have to be Ryuutarou and Mako.
31. Do you read Jrock fan fiction?
No, not interested.
32. What is your favourite Jrocker related dream?
Ironically I never officially had any.
33. How many Jrock MP3s do you have?
I'm not sure but I definitely need to update my collection, ha ha.
