Fixed usernames are disliked. ◆ If a post is truly unbearable, use a dedicated browser to set the ID and fixed username as NG words. ◆ Please avoid wording and posts that make people think, “This is embarrassing as a human being.” ◆ The next thread is to be opened by >>950. Do not add a subtitle. Use common sense when modifying the template. ◆ If a post is so far beyond common sense that it is outrageous, someone may request its deletion.

If you respond, you are no different from the troublemakers. Previous thread: GARNET CROW part.136 http://music5.2ch.net/test/read.cgi/musicjg/1140582530/

If this is number 2, ejaculate inside AZUKI nana (AZUKI Nana, lyricist).

If this is number 3, have Rai Rai Ya sex with Yurippe (Yuri Nakamura, vocalist).

>>1 Thanks for your hard work.

GARNET CROW thread: list of garbage fixed usernames — revised edition edz@g ◆P2unpRNWwM Commonly known as Edo Zagu. He used to vehemently deny it whenever someone called him an anime otaku, but recently he has started playing up his anime-otaku flavor as a running joke. Lately fewer and fewer people respond to him, which is rather painful to watch. At first he did not even know how to use sage or trip, but now he has been completely absorbed into 2ch, to the point of using it at work. Hotaruika ◆5b/4Q4KG6k A garbage fixed username who mistakes 2ch for the back of a leaflet or something. Basically, he mainly talks about artists other than GARNET CROW. Even when told to use sage, he does not; rather, he completely ignores replies telling him to sage. He also ignores every reply that is unfavorable to him. Probably one of the worst kinds of fixed username. Someone please stop him. edz@g ◆.cOjTjK0LY A fake Edo Zagu. If asked why he only changed his trip, he rambles on and on. Even Edo Zagu himself told him, “Don’t use someone else’s fixed username,” but he ignores that too. His replies are the same provocative material every time. Best not to engage. Manmosu Not a fixed username, but a person who writes “sage Manmosu” in the e-mail field. He has been appearing frequently lately. Judging from his replies, he is an embarrassing person who thinks he has excellent taste in music. Apparently his favorite artists are Gimme Gimme, Lagwagon, 18 Wheeler, and TEB. People like this are why others say, “That is so typical of Western-music snobs...” Ah-ha Namikoshi ◆WWkTvYxtEs He does not appear often, but whenever he does, he always targets Yuri Nakamura’s body, especially her breasts or lips, writes two casual lines, and disappears. His hours of appearance are also unpredictable, so he is difficult to understand. Whether he counts as garbage is unclear, but he is also an age troll. Shiori Takei ◆DLFTWsKbr. A troublemaking fixed username who appears every weekend. He clings to this thread all day. He is also an age troll. Although he posts both under a fixed username and anonymously, the ID is the same, so he gives himself away immediately. Pretty pathetic. His posts are also self-indulgent masturbation material. Pretty pathetic. Although he uses Shiori Takei’s name, he is probably actually a hater. Recently he declared that he was retiring from the thread, but who knows what will happen. I Wish Everyone Would Die ◆DLFTWsKbr. Usually appears in the morning and evening on weekdays, but in fact appears at all kinds of times. At night and on days off, he is practically glued here. After losing the Premium Live lottery, he began writing statements that are embarrassing as a human being. He especially loves adding replies to other people’s replies, while completely ignoring replies unfavorable to himself, so his behavior is very bad. For some inexplicable reason, he also set the trip used by his fixed username to the same one as Takei’s. Is he an heir? He once said he was retiring his fixed username, then immediately reversed himself. His words and actions are often inconsistent. Although he is not an age troll and seems to like GARNET deep down, there is no way to see him as anything but a troublemaker. Even though everyone in the thread has recently begun completely ignoring him, he keeps replying desperately, trying to maintain his presence with a Kansai dialect. At the Valentine’s Day live, he wanted to join the conversation, so he secretly posted anonymously instead of using his fixed username. In the end, he is just a coward. In short, almost none of these people understand human language. Do not engage with them.

>>1 Thanks for your hard work!

391 Name: Anonymous [sage] Posted: 2005/12/17 (Sat) 00:26:56 ID:stL4/dRF0 I just got back~ As for the seating order, it was generally arranged by number. However, people with especially shocking appearances apparently received seats farther back when the official tickets were issued. The four or five disgusting men whose numbers were ahead of mine disappeared beautifully lol. Women were also given official tickets for the front seats as a priority. Although I was in the 100-number range, my official ticket was for the fourth row, while the woman beside me was in the 300 range. 394 Name: Anonymous [sage] Posted: 2005/12/17 (Sat) 00:29:16 ID:HeAZdE5n0 As for the seating, I feel that in the latter half of the 300s to around 400, couples and attractive women were given priority. It also seemed as if the people who would appear on the screen had been contacted in advance. 404 Name: Anonymous [sage] Posted: 2005/12/17 (Sat) 00:37:48 ID:ZZXsvJd/0 >>394 So this really was the strategy... GARNET fans (anime otakus and disgusting men) ↓ (No, actually they were) GARNET fans (mainly couples, handsome men, and young women) (What the hell!)

408 Name: Anonymous [sage] Posted: 2005/12/17 (Sat) 00:39:57 ID:HeAZdE5n0 >>404 The first people filmed according to the prearranged plan were two women, so I think they were probably staff or planted guests. They also kept talking with people connected to the event, and the people around those seats looked like acquaintances too. 431 Name: Anonymous [sage] Posted: 2005/12/17 (Sat) 01:01:03 ID:GEIGjdGWO I also think they absolutely discriminated according to gender and appearance. The disgusting otakus were pushed to the sides and the back. Also, I think the person who was filmed was Saegusa. 465 Name: Anonymous [sage] Posted: 2005/12/17 (Sat) 01:21:52 ID:OjjrbI8X0 That was not a strict lottery at all. Except for one couple, everyone within number 100 was a woman. Anyone who went should have noticed. 471 Name: Anonymous [sage] Posted: 2005/12/17 (Sat) 01:25:25 ID:j2ZWlAfy0 >>465 There were a few male-male pairs within 100 too. But there were obviously more women lol.

I bought J*GM. Yurippe and Nana are ridiculously cute.

>>7 and >>8 are no longer relevant. What is the point of posting them again?

Are there no women in this thread?

There are(^^)

Number seven on the daily chart is not bad. Let’s keep it there.

GARNET CROW reaches its sixth anniversary at the end of this month.

I fondly remember when I used to mistake AZUKI Nana for the vocalist.

http://maicrow.tdiary.net/20021218.html Compared with Yuripee, I called out to Yuripee, “Do your best, Mammoth!” but she did not react at all... Later I asked Mr. Saida, and he said it was not that she was prohibited from reacting to the audience; she simply did not know how to react. Apparently she still gets nervous after all. After that, Mr. Saida and I arranged to go to Pankojo together later, and I prepared to leave the venue. Then Mr. Saida came, and we talked about many things. He seriously consulted with me about what GIZA should do in the future and how it could beat Utada and Hamasaki and so on. He also told me about getting caught speeding and scraping a car (lol). “Don’t worry about it.” So that is why he was being sulky in Kyoto. Mr. Saida was filming at the time and even told me, “I’m not filming you.” It really crushed me (lol). I never expected there to be such an inside story... Once again, “Don’t worry about it.” Mr. Saida also went home. I stayed a little longer, but it did not look as if the members of GARNET CROW were going to come, so I decided to leave too. However, I did check whether Hirohito Furui was in the convenience store. Then I got into Beckham’s car with Mazin and SK and began the journey home. They have been far too good at getting overly familiar from the beginning.

GIZA cannot sell records, so it panders to otakus ↓ Ordinary people withdraw ↓ It becomes an underground-idol scene ↓ Staff and singers become increasingly familiar with otakus ↓ Ordinary people withdraw ↓ Vicious cycle The Premium Live was originally meant to break this cycle, but apparently information about the winning conditions leaked to regulars. Light otakus were almost completely eliminated instead, so it backfired. In fact, nearly all the regulars got in...

Regulars like Mazin have terrible manners. 463 Name: Anonymous Posted: 2005/12/23 (Fri) 16:17:01 tRnL2CY7O If there were two girls instead, they could get to the front effortlessly. Thanks to Mazin, at least 50 people have probably grown hostile toward the Bread Live. 471 Name: Anonymous Posted: 2005/12/23 (Fri) 23:52:48 gPiZ3PbKO Mazin may be fat or bald, but at the tambourines show today, he entered last, then pushed aside the people in front of him from the back and forced his way close to the front. Is there really no way to stop him from doing whatever he wants? lol 477 Name: Anonymous Posted: 2005/12/24 (Sat) 12:25:35 wNfmmvNB0 >>471 I remember Mazin turns 30 this year. What is a grown adult doing every week? All you can do is laugh. 493 Name: Anonymous Posted: 2005/12/25 (Sun) 12:44:59 XERpP2zc0 At the the★tambourines live: “Mazin cut from the very back to the very front.” At the solo live a few days ago: “Mazin cut from the very back to the very front.” He is a regular who attends every week, yet he does something unforgivable that ignores all the other spectators. As a regular, should he not set a good example for the other attendees? As a regular, he must know many staff members, performers, and other regular attendees, but “Mazin cut from the very back to the very front” betrays those people. It is the worst possible behavior! We strongly hope Mazin will be banned from entering. 499 Name: Anonymous Posted: 2005/12/25 (Sun) 23:17:33 c7gvgwEfO Why did Mazin enter from the very back this time? 1. Yukino Okazaki was not there. 2. When he is near the counter, GIZA girls often come to watch the live show (Saegusa, Takaoka, Sparking Point, and Shiori Takei all watch from the back of the counter). Probably nobody came this time, so he played the trick of moving from the very back to the very front lol. He really does whatever he wants. Should we send a complaint e-mail to the Bread Factory and start a campaign to exclude Mazin from Bread Live?

63 Name: Anonymous Posted: 2006/02/15 (Wed) 06:08:16 6jCDsK6p0 Late, but here is my report. First of all, no matter what, the audience was excellent. As far as I could see, there was absolutely none of the regular group such as Mazin, Shiorina, or Beckham. There were no DQN forcing their way to the front, no annoying shouts, PPPH, or excessive jumping. It was a live show with excellent manners. We may never see a Bread Factory like that again. There were fewer shouts like “Yurippe!” between songs, though. Still, the regulars in T-shirts shouting “Oi! Oi!” really are better suited to Rina-rin and Yuuka-tan’s live shows lol. As for clothing, Yurippe wore a red plaid shirt and looked cute. Her makeup was rather heavy, and her lips were sexy. Nana (AZUKI Nana, lyricist) seemed to be wearing a black shirt. I do not remember the two men. The MC was: ・Yurippe: “In Japan, the daytime gets an hour and a half longer over the two months after the winter solstice, but in some places it gets four hours longer.” The venue: “...” ・Mochi (Hitoshi Okamoto; Mochi and Oka-Mochi are nicknames for Hitoshi Okamoto and have nothing to do with AZUKI Nana): “Valentine’s Day too, and recently even ehomaki has been something the industry has hyped up. But when I was a student, my heart raced all day, so I still do not want Valentine’s Day to disappear.” ・Before “SKY,” when they asked for song requests, just as on the 13th, many people shouted for “A crown,” but they said, “That one is taking a break right now.” After they asked, “Anything else?”, “Bury It Forever” was also told, “That one is taking a break right now.” When someone shouted “JEWEL FISH!”, they replied, “That is not a song from an independent-period album~” lol. ・Also, Mochi stumbled over his words at the expected place, and the women burst out laughing lol. The set list was probably exactly the same as on the 13th. Yurippe’s high notes were excellent today and echoed beautifully through the venue. Personally, Mochi’s “Crystal Gauge” was wonderful. Yurippe holding the tambourine was also very cute. At the end they repeated “Spiral” three times, which was tiring as expected. Afterward, Mr. Saida also reported that we should look forward to the album and tour. He also said that blocking the performers after the show would cause trouble for the neighborhood, so people should not do that. In short, I watched from fairly far back. The lively parts were lively, with good variation, and it was an excellent live show. Yurippe, Nana, Mochi, and Hirohito Furui, thanks for your hard work. Please keep doing your best in the sixth year too. 64 Name: Anonymous Posted: 2006/02/15 (Wed) 06:26:58 hsK1eQcj0 【A live without Mazin】 That alone makes it a good live show.

http://page5.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/e53451789 Looking at this, Nana really is an old lady after all...

>>25 Because she is an aunt to begin with.

I guess all that is left this time is Mステ... and it will probably have no talk segment. Is there really nothing else besides Mステ?

> Starting Sunday, April 2, the new song “Yume Hanabi” will be broadcast as the opening theme for the TV Tokyo anime “MÄR Heaven”!! Does the person in charge of GIZA’s website not even know the difference between full-width and half-width characters?

('A`) Well...

>>25-26 http://web2.megaview.jp/imageout.php?m=org&ty=601&pt=w%2F20060301%2Fimg%2Fxdylqguk9610510.jpeg&ctv=117 Look at this.

The chorus of the new song was inspired by Kozo Murashita’s “Karen.” It is similar enough that there is no excuse left.

I can almost hear someone saying, “You are really trying hard.”

By the way, how good is number seven on the daily chart?

>>1 The time is finally coming for you to leave this world after all your hard work~♪

Contamination removed.

Copied from another site. Choose the Yurippe you hate most from the following: �@ When she tried to board the women-only train car without makeup, a station employee stopped her. �A Secretly job hunting to change careers. �B She is actually good friends with Koda, who is also from Kyoto. �C Very fashionable. �D Haggles over the price of dry batteries at an electronics superstore. �E Always mispronounces the name of her own band and cannot introduce herself. �F Nicknamed “The Boss.” �G If someone in the audience cannot follow the mood at a live show, she shouts, “Do you have a dick?!” �H Instructs them to use one fewer pillar in the live set. �I Can do a one-handed push-up.

Yurippe is so cute.

>>1-38

Listening directly through a stereo and listening through headphones give very different impressions. Rai Rai Ya is pretty good too!

The person posting viruses should die. Not “shi-ne”—actually die.

Yurippe’s bare legs.

The dream you imagined, MÄR Heaven ('A`).

Hey, everyone! It is already March! Have you changed the calendar on your desk properly? Although I do not really like the March/April photos.

>1000: Anonymous Ellie: 2006/03/02 (Thu) 20:58:23 ID:4dIrVVwxO [sage] >If this is number 1000, GARNET CROW will finally debut overseas. That would be great ☆

>>36 Being friendly with Koda. That is the worst... (・∀・) lol

Of the three songs, “Kaze no Oto” hits me the hardest.

By the way, everyone unanimously says “over blow” is good, but honestly, isn’t “Rai Rai Ya” better? lol

If you listen to “over blow” as a sequel to “Bury It Forever,” it is incredible.

It is too early to talk about Gane’s new song now.

“Rai Rai Ya” sounds great through headphones. The lingering echo in the “you can know~” part is wonderful.

Yurippe! Don’t get nervous on Mステ.

Of the three, “Rai Rai Ya” is plainly the strongest, right? The c/w songs feel rather plain no matter how you look at them.

【Something I have been obsessed with lately】 In the morning, before work, I make it a condition that someone is somewhere in one of the three rows of company toilets. Once that situation is achieved, I make a victory sign. I enter the toilet. Then there, I forcefully let out my farts and shit. Brrr-brrr, brrrrr!! I usually hold back a little when someone is nearby. But before work there are also strangers from other floors. And that makes it even more satisfying. Then I leave triumphantly without flushing. The best moment.

Am I the only one who thinks “Tatoeba 12-gatsu no Yoru ni” is actually quite a classic? “Hare-dokei” is just okay...

Wrong thread, sorry.

>>54 I like “Hare-dokei” and those two c/w songs too.

About how I still do not understand what “Rai Rai Ya” means.

>>57 Eeeeeek!

I hope they release a song as grand and wonderful as “call my name.”

>>57 If you buy it, you get something like a booklet. It explains the meaning and includes comments from the members.

Yurippe is coming to Tokyo tomorrow. She may already be here. I am inexplicably a little happy just thinking about it.

Disgusting.

I listened to “Rai Rai Ya” while walking just now, and it was really scary! The “you can know~” part is scary! “over~” makes me want to cry for some reason, even though I do not know why!

Please go on tomorrow in perfect condition. (・∀・) >>56 I especially like CANDY POP... scenes appear before my eyes. Those slow, gentle songs are wonderful too.

Matsuri~~no~~jikan~~♪

I will pretend I cannot see tomorrow’s Mステ (ノ_＜。) What will Yurippe say?

Those in the know will watch Gane sitting in the background while another artist talks lol.

>>72 They will probably be sitting at the edge, so I do not think they will be shown much.

Mステ tomorrow. By the way, tomorrow is the deadline for the Premium Live merchandise. I have no money, so never mind.

Azuki and Yurippe are so clingy that even Mochi and the old man would back away. It feels like nobody can get between them.

But as I watch them, I feel that Hirohito Furui and Nakamura actually get along pretty well.

>>31 > The chorus of the new song was inspired by Kozo Murashita’s “Karen.” I am sure the members have never heard it. A toast to you for knowing Murashita.

te s

Murashita’s “Hatsukoi” is a classic.

>>54 Sorry, I only imported “Hare-dokei” and CANDY POP onto my computer.

Whenever I hear “Tatoeba 12-gatsu no Yoru ni,” I think of “Ave Maria.” No, I think it is a good song, but still, “Ave Maria.” It gets stuck there: “Ave Maria.”

I do not really care.

>>81 I started listening because I actually like that part.

Tokyo Noren — a classic.

Is the person who keeps saying “Ave Maria, Ave Maria” in this thread the same person?

Yurippe, do your best on TV. Good night.

I heard they have been recording their fifth album since June last year. After spending this much time on it, it seems likely to be quite a dense work.

Like X JAPAN.

Only “over blow” is the real deal.

“Kaze no Oto Dake o Kiite” is the real deal.

“Crystal Gauge” is the real deal.

Only GARNET CROW is Gane.

There are really a lot of people saying that “Crystal Gauge” is the real deal.

Congratulations on number nine.

Mochi’s guitar on “Rai Rai Ya” is so cool!

Copied from the Asahi Shimbun. Mステーション — must watch Remioromen & Sukima Cocco & Tsuyoshi Domoto solo & Ayaka & Yuna Ito also appear Garnet This treatment is so cruel lol.

I have a bad feeling there will be no talk segment.

>>96 It is good enough that they even wrote the name down.

“Naked Story” is the real deal.

May I sing a little too?

In the park—cutting hair— In the park—cutting hair— In the park—...

Yuri Nakamura.

The bump-posting squad has arrivedーーーーーー.

Tsuyoshi Domoto is appearing too. This guy apparently likes Nakamura.

“Rai Rai Ya” is the first Gane song I have ever been this obsessed with. Once you like it, you want to listen to their other songs too.

>>105 In that case, buy a best-of album first, or rent one and listen to it. I am sure you will like it.

Of the artists appearing today listed in >>96, is there anyone whose name was not written down?

I think they are all listed.

I see... So there definitely will not be a talk segment, right? orz

On today’s Mステ lineup, Gane is between Tsuyoshi and Cocco, so there probably will not be a talk segment. It feels like it will be “Next up are Endlicheri~ and GARNET CROW,” followed by Tsuyoshi wrapping things up with his talk... Still, the other performers are pretty big names, so perhaps quite a lot of people nationwide will watch.

Is it true that “Yume Hanabi” was originally planned as the ending theme for Nexus?

That wording makes it sound as if GARNET CROW is the only one that is not a must-see. Isn’t GC the must-see? With this lineup, anyway.

I want to see Yurippe (Yuri Nakamura, vocalist) appear on “Tsuyoshi Domoto’s Honest Hardship.”

>>110 It is not an impressive lineup at all. There is not a single major star. The ratings will definitely be terrible. The Mステ staff may blame Gane for this... Mステ staff: “As expected, GARNET CROW cannot bring in ratings... We do not need to invite them again, do we? lol”

Don’t say that (´；ω；`) sob...

Setting ratings aside, they are all musicians who have generally made good music. It would be nice if GARNET CROW could reach at least some of their fans... Also, Remioromen, Sukima, and Ito have all recently released hit songs, so the level of attention may be high.

Endlicheri has had hit songs too, though.

Nakamura is in charge of promoting the new song. Don’t sing the lyrics wrong.

The only competition is the WBC, so the ratings should still be decent, right? Still, I feel that some people may already be completely tired of Endlicheri. I am looking forward to Yurippe’s clothes and hairstyle today.

I want to see Yurippe looking confused after Endlicheri talks to her.

The ratings should be good this time, right? KinKi fans, “Konayuki” fans, NANA fans, drama fans, plus Cocco’s return and Doraemon—the lineup is excellent. GARNET CROW is lucky to be on this episode!

You are all underestimating Garnet Crow too much!!!!

Do you think she will appear on Mステ dressed like a witch?

Will there be a talk segment? I hope so.

Have Yurippe and the others been in Tokyo since yesterday, or are they going there today, on the day of the show? What time will they probably enter the studio?

Yurippe will teleport, Nana will use a magic door, Mochi will ride a bamboo-copter, and the old man will take the train.

>>123 I would be so excited to see Yurippe cosplaying Dorothy (the witch) (*´Д｀) panting.

Does Gane have good relations with them?

Complicated.

Who was that fighter who used to date Yurippe?

Tsuyoshi Domoto and Yurippe, the shut-in couple.

>>130 People in this thread got tired of that joke a long time ago.

I forgot to set the timer recording. I should go straight home without taking any detours...

>>130 Demon Kogure.

It has been so long since Gane appeared on Mステ. For some reason I am getting excited.

Since “Kimi no Kage”?

Since “Kimi no Kage” on June 18, 2004. About a year and a half has passed.

Whatever the content, I still want to be honestly happy that they can appear on Mステ. Although I do not know how much it will help sales.

Should we post about the Mステ appearance here or in the live-commentary thread?

>>139 Depends on the posting frequency, I guess. It should basically be the live-commentary board. It is great that they are appearing, but honestly I am worried (´・ω・｀)

I cannot help overlapping Gane with Harukari from last time in my mind...

>>140 Thanks. What are you worried about? Are you worried that Tamori will mispronounce the name GARNET CROW? Are you worried that Domoto will say the song title wrong? Are you worried that the lyric subtitles will appear early? ↑ All of those things happened during the “Kimi no Kage” appearance.

The Mステ blog has not been updated yet...

Nana has never spoken on Mステ, right?

I remember the first time I saw Nana on Mステ: she did not say a word and just grinned sneakily in the back. Thinking about it brings back that inexplicable feeling of irritation.

The live-commentary thread will probably be flooded with “G-girl dead eyes” comments again. Though that is the usual story.

People who do live commentary are idiots. Watch the TV properly.

>>146 That is rather pitiful too... They judge people just because they are from GIZA (・∀・) Here, no matter how well they sell, it only gets as far as, “Oh, they are Being...” Even if B’z broke up, people would gradually forget them too... What a regrettable company.

Can Gane leave an impression on this Mステ episode...? Remioromen’s song is tied to the major film “A Little Fox Named Helen,” Sukima’s is tied to Doraemon, and then there is Domoto’s solo... No, but even if the topic does not come up much... The song is what it is, so perhaps that will actually be fine...? The Remioromen song does not feel very striking to me...

Anyway, I hope something unexpected happens.

>>142 I did not watch “Kimi no Kage,” so I did not know those things had happened. I am worried about whether she can sing properly. Normally it is obvious that singers can sing, but for some reason I worry about Yurippe. It is probably because her singing style is distinctive (´・ω・｀)

I listened to the new song. It has quite a folk-song flavor. Personally, I like that kind of feeling. For people nostalgic about 1970s folk music, it may hit the mark perfectly!!

Do you think the people watching Mステ have good ears? They are all just fanatics. They cannot even tell whether something is from Being. Or rather, they do not care. Or rather, they do not know.

Does anyone know today’s Oricon ranking?

Number 14.

>>154 It is not out yet, but I think it will be soon.

I am looking forward to it.

Here it comes: “Rai Rai Ya” arrived at the CD store where I work part-time today!! The manager made a mistake with the order, so I sincerely apologize to everyone who planned to buy it on release day.

>>155 Number 14... (´；ω；`) sob...

Apparently it is number 14... Older releases have risen slightly too, but it is still a little disappointing.

>>148 Huh? If B’z broke up, they would be discussed as legends forever!

That would absolutely not happen.

It really is number 14... If they fall any farther, they may rank below “Hare-dokei.”

There are many new singles this week, so it cannot be helped. They are competing with HYDE, after all. At least they should reach the level of “Hare-dokei.”

A striking song... Do you mean it went in the bad direction...?

Did they get the release timing wrong...? It would have been better to postpone it like ZARD, perhaps...?

>>155 Thanks orz

What number are the Baby Stars at? Where can we see the daily rankings after number 20?

>>162 Are you trying to pick a fight with B’z fans?

Before Mステ airs, if we reach >>200, that will count as a great success.

I feel like I am starting to get nervous.

I am wondering about the clothes.

Is it difficult to get into Mステ’s ranking?

Forget that; even the Oricon top 10 is in danger.

>>174 Getting into the top 10 would be a miracle.

Here we go, the Mステ festival begins♪

The two men and Azuki will probably be dressed as usual, but it looks like Yurippe will wear a skirt. If Yurippe sings in the outfit from the cover, I think it will look cool.

It is up against the China game.

I have a feeling she will wear mourning clothes for the first time in a while.

People who won FC viewing tickets are so lucky. I want to hear a live version of “Rai Rai Ya”~ テラウラヤマシス

I am also curious about what happens after Mステ.

Thirty minutes left.

>>183 I wonder if there will be something like a GARNET CROW autograph. Was it called Dom Mari Mail? I am curious about that too.

[ASCII art of a television and a character falling over, with the lyrics “Rai~ Rai~ Ya~”] “Rai~” “Rai~” “Ya~” “Crash.”

It is fine if her breasts are a little smaller.

>>185 Agreed.

I am starting to get nervous. I cannot shake the feeling that something is going to go wrong lol.

Contamination removed.

For some reason, everyone’s posts have the perspective of a guardian lol.

Mini Mステ is about to begin.

Thump-thump.

It is already thump-thump！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！

My heart is pounding.

I feel like I am starting to get nervous, maaaaan. Yurippe will probably have her usual updo, no matter what~

I hope there is a talk segment. I hope Yurippe can sing the final “Rai Rai Ya” properly.

Here we go, it will air soon!! Good luck, GARNET CROW!!

So they really are appearing last...?

Everyone is this nervous. I’m dying laughing lol.

As expected of Garnet: there is more anxiety than anticipation.

Mini Mステ is not coming.

GARNET “Rai Rai Ya” copied from Miyuki Nakajima’s “Tabibito no Uta” http://live22x.2ch.net/test/read.cgi/liveanb/1141383358/

Off to the bathroom.

Yurippe with her hair down is here aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!

Yurippe is super cute (´Д｀;三;´Д｀)

>>203 What————!!!!!!

Oh no——————!!!!! My hands are shaking so much I cannot type on the keyboard aaaaaaaaaaaa!!!!!!!!!

GARNET! GARNET! ヽ(ﾟ∀ﾟ)メ(ﾟ∀ﾟ)メ(ﾟ∀ﾟ)ノ

It feels kind of curly.

Yurippe is so cute... By the way, she finally seems to be paying attention to her appearance lol. The outfit looks good too. Azuki-san is cute too~

Mochi looks like Taka now...

The old man (;´Д`) pant pant.

I cannot wait.

Does Mochi usually look like that?

【GIZA】Mステ GARNET CROW exclusive【G-girl dead eyes】 http://live22x.2ch.net/test/read.cgi/liveanb/1141383155/ Move to the live-commentary board.

GARNET in the preview footage... the usual hairstyle and more or less the usual clothes again? I find it strange that they do not coordinate the clothes and things with the mood of the song.

Contamination cleared.

It has started! I am so nervous.

Mステ is here.

Yurippe is incredible—————!!!!!!

They are holding hands... as expected, they are lovers (ry

Do not hold hands.

Azuki and Yuri are holding hands.

Yurippe looks like a doll.

Yurippe and Nana entered holding hands Σ(￣ロ￣lll)

Their little hands are joined lol. So cute ♥

Do not hold hands.

Seeing Yurippe and Nana holding hands made me intensely ship them.

Wait, the first song is an unexpected development. Yurippe is too cute lol.

>>228 I was a little scared off.

Mステ is here━━━━━━(ﾟ∀ﾟ)━━━━━━ !!!!

I was just saying it was the usual hairstyle and clothes... ミ(ノ;_ _)ノ It is different from the preview footage...

Didn’t Yurippe already have hay fever?

It would be disastrous if Okamoto and Furui, as a pair, were holding hands.

Okamocchi is wearing the same clothes as at the Premium Live.

GARNET CROW has gone beyond admiration. It is practically worship.

Yurippe’s flushed cheeks are so cute.

The preview was “Kimi no Kage.”

>>230 ( ;´･ω･`)人(´･ω･`; )

Yurippe looked unhappy when she came out. Is it hay fever?

Could the talk segment really have ended just like that...?

Has Yurippe gained weight? orz

Did the old man get a haircut? By the way, it looks like there may be an interview, wktk.

Mochi swaying around in the back looks disgusting.

I am attracted to the expression on Yurippe’s unhappy-looking face. The contrast afterward is great—Yurippe and Nana are both so cute~

Wait lolllllllll, the back.

Did they not make the ranking...?

I feel like the order is the very last one... Is there really no interview at all?

>>248 Even artists who appear last have not had interviews lately, right?

Redirect again. 【GIZA】Mステ GARNET CROW exclusive【G-girl dead eyes】 http://live22x.2ch.net/test/read.cgi/liveanb/1141383155/

Yurippe’s eyebrows are very thick.

>>249 Sometimes the last act has no interview either. It would be terribly unlucky if that happened today.

I missed the opening remarks! This is awful.

I hope she sneezes during the final frozen shot at “Rai~ Rai~ Ya~.”

Is GARNET CROW the only one not in the ranking? (´;ω;｀) Damn it.

>>251 But she still loses to Cocco.

>>255 It really stands out... (´；ω；`) sob...

But that outfit is really terrible.

If she really sneezes... it will be embarrassing.

>>255 It would be better that way.

Yurippe is way too conscious of the Afro lol.

What on earth is Nana whispering into Yurippe’s ear aaaaaaaaaaaa?

Contamination cleared.

They were shown for a moment at the beginning, so there probably will not be an interview today either. I am used to it.

Mochi really just looks like an ordinary person...

Is the person wearing a beret Mochi?

By the way, he casually got a good seat...

Yurippe, smile.

I seriously looked for Mochi. So that is him?

Other than Yurippe, are all the costumes reused from the Premium Live?

It feels a little unpleasant lol. The rankings are painful to watch. Older episodes of Mステ would force numbers 1–10 into a direction favorable to the performers.

>>270 They are different from the ones in the newsletter.

Could it be that everyone except Yurippe is wearing the same outfit as at the Premium Live...? By the way, Yurippe does not look to be in very good shape.

They introduced the new song released this week, so force them into around number ten!! Oricon’s rankings are what they are anyway; there is no need to be so strict about it!!

But Ito is already number ten, so if they really want to enter, they have to be at a fairly high rank.

I am looking forward to Yurippe freezing the venue in a Gothic-Lolita outfit. Still, if they are going to sing, it is also fair to say that “over blow” would feel better.

At least I hope people become interested in them by the time Mステ ends!

>>276 I agree.

Live commentary is over here: http://live22x.2ch.net/test/read.cgi/liveanb/1141383109/

Ordinary people → change the channel as soon as the person they wanted to see is finished. Us → orz

>>276 The contrast between that Gothic-Lolita outfit and the round, chubby feeling of Rai Rai Ya is what makes it good, I guess.

>>275 Remioromen and Ito both have the strong flavor of one-hit wonders, so they will probably fall quickly too.

They have become a suspicious group behind Tamori lol. Cocco and Nana... terrifying lol.

>>281 Yeah. I am already starting to feel creeped out.

They changed the song to “over blow” at the last minute.

Go to the live-commentary board.

Mochi and the old man have had surprisingly long screen time.

[ASCII art preserved from the original.]

Cocco being nervous is kind of cute (*´Д`)

Go for it, Mochi...

Why is everyone looking down?

If they cut the Johnny’s artists who keep appearing with the same singer or the same song, everyone could talk.

Nana’s nape. Cute.

1: GARNET CROW part.137 293 292 1 06/03/03 20:25 2: Remioromen vol.33 655 3: CHAGE and ASKA Vol.272

>283 I agree... Azuki and Cocco are of the same type... terrifying.

It feels like Cocco’s part will take quite a while, but judging from the schedule, won’t there be at least a little interview? >>276 Agreed. At the very least, the outfit and the melody do not match at all.

Nana and Kokko give off the same kind of vibe.

The smell of death.

Are Nana’s eyes swollen?

Rai Rai Ya is good, huh. So...

But Nana-san is prettier, right?

By the way, haven’t the same people been appearing on recent Mステ episodes too often? We do not need Ayaka and so on.

How old is Cocco?

Among today’s songs, Rai Rai Ya is overwhelmingly the most striking. The other songs do not leave any impression at all.

Yurippe and Nana have entered their own little world (*´Д`)

When you think of anime, you think of GARNET CROW and Detective Conan.

By the way, that Remioromen guy is in the way.

I like GARNET CROW, but I also like Cocco (^ω^).

Please sneeze.

>>304 You only think that because you are a GARNET otaku...

>>304 That is GARNET for you. Though it is pretty scary.

>>308 Same.

By the way, Azuki and Yuri are whispering to each other again... Strange.

At least it is unquestionably number one in impact. Whether people will like it is another question.

>>306 Lately it is MÄR (ry By the way, this will be their third collaboration next time... They once said in JGM that they liked MÄR, but this is too much lol.

>>313 Those two have a yuri relationship.

That guy in the striped shirt has been in the way from the beginning! I cannot see Yurippe!

There is not much time left, hey...

>>313 Nana: “What is that Afro? Don’t you think it is outrageous?” Yurippe: “Honestly...” (laughing bitterly) By the way, Cocco is inexplicably cute.

It is almost time. As long as they do not repeat the disaster that began with “Spiral.” Still, that would have its own charm.

The live-commentary virus has infected me too deeply.

Thanks to Cocco causing a broadcast incident, I feel I can accept any awkward conversation afterward.

She just waved at me.

Is GARNET CROW after Cocco?

Does that person called Cocco have some kind of disability?

Wait lolllllllll, Yurippe waved at me lolllllllll.

>>323 No, she waved at me.

>>326

Tamori is so cute lol.

>319 If that is true, I am dying laughing.

A topical song incorporating ethnic instruments... Topical...?

Looking at this, there will be an interview.

Cocco is a professional, as expected. She is powerful as soon as she starts singing. What will happen with GARNET CROW?

I feel like I am going to become a Cocco fan. Based on the timing, it looks like GARNET CROW will have an interview.

In that case, there will be no interview.

[ASCII art preserved from the original.] From here on, the real hell begins:

It is finally coming. I am so nervous lol.

I have a chilling feeling that they will start singing without an interview.

Oh no, Cocco is inexplicably good (・∀・)

Which is it going to be?!

I am getting excited~

Thanks to Cocco, they were completely overshadowed.

Cocco has fallen off compared with before (-_-;)

See? No interview lol.

There is no interview!

No interview!!

Wait lolllllllll, no interview (´;ω;`)

Oh no! I am starting to sweat!

As expected, they are being mocked on the live-commentary board...

It is incredibly striking lol.

The audience has been scared away.

Yurippe, that hairstyle is so old-fashioned, Yurippe.

I am moved~!

＿|￣|○ No.

No interview. Mステ staff, go die.

↓ Capital of Canada.

The text afterward is completely unnecessary lol.

Moved as well...

The live-commentary board is tearing them to pieces...

>>349 It has always been like that, right? I forget which time, but they were called “shut-ins returning to society” lol.

There was even Cocco before them! And still no interview!

I hate you allーーーーー.

It is over.

It was my first time hearing them, but the ending was not that bad.

Enka (´・ω・｀)

Yurippe really is that type. She feels a little like a sheltered young lady.

Much better than before. Think of the time before they started performing live...

The vocalist used to sing while playing drums, right?

>>351 Whether the audience was scared away or not, we Gane otakus do not care.

Should we distribute an audio recording of the February 14 Valentine’s Live to cleanse everyone’s ears? We could upload it to Rina’s upload site or something.

【Extracted replies】 Target thread: Music Station ★ 5 or 6 Keyword: Miyuki Nakajima Number of extracted replies: 65

It is an honor to be abused that badly by the idiots on the live-commentary board.

They said GARNET was more disgusting than Cocco. That is a good thing.

[ASCII art of a small vehicle singing “Rai Rai Ken” preserved from the original.] Rai Rai Ken♪

>>370 Please.

Raaai—raaaai—yaaーーー.

It was plainly pretty good. Yurippe’s eyes were red lol.

Her eyes were swollen from hay fever, so her face looked strange.

She did not seem to be in good shape before the chorus. Poor Mochi—he did not get a guitar solo.

This is not something that only started now. Still, GARNET is just right when it does not fit in.

The live-commentary board, oh no｡･ﾟ･(ﾉд`)･ﾟ･｡

Better than the MÄR Heaven appearance on CDTV.

>>355 They have not had an interview lately. No one at GIZA except Aiuchi is good at talking, so it cannot be helped. Someone on the live-commentary board said it was like Keisuke Kuwata’s “Tsuki.”

Restore your image with “Yume Hanabi.” Charge, Yurippe!

It is only about a three-minute song. Let her sing the full version. We do not need the boring ranking.

Anyway, I am relieved that the final Rai Rai Ya did not go wrong. Cocco even got teased by Tamori at the end... I hope neither of them ever appears on a lousy program like Mステ again.

By the way, it was annoying to make Cocco talk.

>>374 Thanks for the plagiarism, fixed-ID person lol. Apparently the B section of the melody is the same as Yoshie Kashiwabara’s “Haru na no ni.” But anyone who knows that song must be an old woman over forty.

At least it ended safely.

In the end they still did not ask what Rai Rai Ya means. Has Tamori lost interest too?

Please cancel Mステ.

>>385 Cocco sang for almost five minutes.

It is over. I am going to take a bath, okay?

Was the thing in the middle M Topi? If it had not been there, could they have had an interview?

I cannot type the kanji for “rai.” What should I enter to make it appear?

Yurippe seems to have gained a little weight. She should lose it with her specialty, dumbbell exercises!

>>391 Seriously, it also serves as a way for TV Asahi to gather material, so it will not be canceled that easily. Still, we should be grateful that there is even a Being slot lol.

...

It feels like the whole audience was scared lol. From now on, they should only appear on TV with upbeat songs.

>>368 Wasn’t that rumania montevideo?

The clothes and the song do not match at all lol. Has Yurippe gained weight, or is she swollen... Azuki’s skin already looks terrible... That song shocks me every time I hear it......

I just heard GARNET CROW’s new song for the first time, but it really sounds like Miyuki Nakajima...

From the moment GC appeared, Yurippe never smiled, so I was terribly anxious. It also hurts that they did not make the ranking, and singing after Cocco was difficult too.

But GARNET and Cocco have different levels of public attention. That is true for both ordinary people and 2ch users.

>>395 What about “fue”?

The intro to “Natsu no Maboroshi” copied a Britney Spears song.

AZUKI is rated fairly well on the live-commentary board, but Yurippe is being bashed too badly... It makes me sad.

They should have given Cocco’s talk time to GARNET... What a waste... Make up for Yurippe’s old-fashioned hairstyle with the song!

By the way, the live-commentary people can all go die (´∀`)ノ

As expected, they were bashed terribly.

>>406 Which song was it?

The ending was good.

They were too disgusting on Mステ. Yurippe’s face looked awful too. I thought they were already finished when they started singing the MÄR Heaven theme. A friend watching with me even asked disdainfully, “You like this kind of thing?” When the Rai Rai Ya part came, he burst out laughing.

“Raaai—raaaai—yaa...” Achoo! I wish she had at least created an impact and a laugh that way.

>>409 The people doing the bashing have never even touched an instrument, so do not worry about them.

Even if ordinary people watched, if the closing act has no interview, it will leave no impression at all. I expect sales this time to be around ten thousand. The treatment is as terrible as ever. Also, Yurippe looked way too fat. She must have gained five kilograms.

Is Yurippe unhappy because of the clothes? Still, the degree to which they were bashed was impressive.

There are already two dedicated threads on the live-commentary board. http://live22x.2ch.net/test/read.cgi/liveanb/1141383358/

NET CROW.

The live-commentary board even called it something like a mental-hospital concert.

I have not heard enough, so I am going to listen to Rai Rai Ya now.

The pitch was a complete mess today. It was far too low. But that is part of the charm.

>>406 Britney Spears is crap. Paul Gilbert even said something like, “If Britney can sing, then of course we have the right to play drums” lol.

Being scheduled to sing last was the cause of defeat.

>>418 Isn’t most of that just >>1 posting there?

Please, let me say just this. Was today’s Mステ any good? There was no interview before the song. The vocalist was not as cute as usual. The three people below were old men and old women... And the most important thing, the song... I have no words. Did they intend to attract new fans? And at the end, “Rai Rai Ya” was displayed huge in the background. I thought it was Saburo Kitajima. That performance. It was absolutely enka.

106 Name: Anonymous Station sage New! Posted: 2006/03/03 (Fri) 20:52:25.43 ID:iXAaMZLo Anyway, it really is a terrible song. “Hana no Noren,” “Tsuki,” “Haru na no ni,” “Tabibito no Uta.” Anything else?

If Yurippe had sung the final Rai Rai Ya like Cocco and hugged the old man, I would have died of cuteness.

Yurippe, who is adorably well-behaved enough to say “Thank you, everyone” after singing, without knowing that she was being bashed on 2ch, is so cute.

>>423 Wow. Criticizing another artist... This is why GARNET otakus are looked down on.

They are being bashed unbelievably badly on the live-commentary board orz. When your favorite artist is talked about that way, it really does hurt.

Still, GARNET is fortunate to appear in the media more often than Princess Aiko...

>>426 It absolutely was not good. If anything, I think it was the worst. That may also be because I already thought this single was mediocre.

So among ordinary people, has the image “GARNET CROW = cute old man” become fixed?

>>426 Strong agreement. Are they trying to win over even old men and old women as fans? That will not attract new fans at all. This was the worst Mステ appearance so far.

>>430 Sorry...

>>431 This time Yurippe had hay fever, and Rai Rai Ya was not popular with ordinary people. It was the worst possible situation, so it could not be helped. That is what I tell myself.

It was not a ponytail.

Yurippe is cute!! She is as cute as “Haru Matsu Hana.”

There was no need to display the words Rai Rai Ya at the end. It is not such a great set of lyrics that they deserve that emphasis.

No matter how much she is bashed, she is still my favorite. I am going to write a fan letter. Later.

Who cares what 2ch users say? It has no effect anyway. It is good enough that they could appear on the program.

It does not really matter, but whenever a new song appears on TV, it always turns into a “sounds like ~” discussion and people generally start arguing, which is unpleasant. About a year ago there were also too many obsessive replies saying, “It sounds too much like ~.” I also think the thread had already become chaotic a little before that, but somehow it has been chaotic continuously from then until now.

>>441 Somehow, you are kind of cute lol.

I could not get a very good look at the breasts (´･ω･｀)

Basically, nobody praises anyone or says anything nice on the live-commentary board. That is simply a thread for bashing people. Cocco’s side was even more extreme lol. They opened several threads, and she was treated worse than GARNET...

I went back to check the live-commentary board again...｡･ﾟ･(ﾉд`)･ﾟ･｡

The live-commentary board was a shock on the level of “Spiral.” They said it was plagiarism, that her voice was rough, that it was disgusting, and even that it sounded like Yoshie Kashiwabara. Honestly, it felt as if Yurippe had been publicly stripped and stared at.

The grand strategy is to attract most people’s attention with Rai Rai Ya, then captivate everyone with Yume Hanabi.

Is GARNET a duo?

I will continue to love GARNET CROW from now on too. Other people’s opinions do not matter.

Then can we conclude that “GARNET’s independent period was the strongest”?

>>400 Maybe... Sorry for going off topic.

>>441 Go encourage GARNET.

Still, for people who only ever listen to AVEX, I do think it was striking in a certain sense.

For some reason, only Nana was rated well on the live-commentary board! That is the one consolation.

There is nothing in >>405. Is there anything else?

When she sang “Raaaaiiii—raaaaaaiiii—yaaaaaaa~,” the friend beside me burst out laughing...

I am listening to “Hare-dokei” now... It would have been nice if they had performed “Hare-dokei.”
