Thanks for the thread, and RAINBOW.

Thanks, though let me make a small correction. ★ Live performance Wednesday, 2006/12/20, Nakano Sunplaza Doors/opening time: 19:00

Thanks for the thread.

>>1 Thanks for the thread!

Do not break up.

I became a fan about two months ago. The trigger was the Premium Live shown on GyaO. I collected the CDs at an astonishing speed and put every GARNET CROW song into my iPod, from singles and albums to B-sides (except instrumentals). I even added remix albums that stores do not carry. For things whose differences are hard to hear, such as the single and Sports! versions of Spiral, or the indie/single and first-album versions of Futari no Rocket, I put in both versions. GARNET CROW seems to have released 127 songs by now. Of course I also have all the live DVDs. My phone wallpaper is Yurippe (Yuri Nakamura, the vocalist). Since people can suddenly become fans like this, I think GARNET CROW still has a lot of potential.

＞The indie/single and first-album versions of Futari no Rocket The difference is not that hard to hear, is it? ^^

>>1 Thanks for the thread~

Thanks for the thread.

>>1 Thanks for opening the thread! Yurippe and the others are the best!

>>8 The difference in Futari no Rocket is that the drums became real drums and the backing vocals got bigger, if I remember correctly.

Live together with Yurippe.

Unfortunately, Yurippe belongs to Mochi.

>>12 They added bass.

>>1 Thanks for the thread.

Nakamura — vocals AZUKI — keyboards Hiroto Furui — arrangement Okamoto — guitar

ttp://www.haoting.com/htmusic/99384ht.htm

I misread it as “AZUKI keychain.” I doubted my own eyes, then saw “AZUKI keyboardist.” That would have been fine, but I somehow read it as “Ah, is this a border case?” and accepted it that way. I am going to bed. Good night.

>>7 Please continue to support them from here on too.

This is the final live of the week~ Everyone, enjoy it to the fullest!

I want to hear Natsu no Maboroshi from the overseas Conan songs available on YouTube. For some reason, there are a lot of Aiuchi songs.

Yurippe's English pronunciation is at native-speaker level. She has ability equivalent to Eiken Grade 1.

>>23 Too bad Mochi is a little better.

Before that, there is her Japanese ...

The English pronunciation in “Kurige” and “Holding~” is excellent.

Yurippe is beautiful.

I only just noticed that the live date in >>1 was written as the ticket-sale start date.

>>28 >>3

>>29 Sorry, I did not read carefully. Sorry.

>>30 Your ID is SM.

>>7 Have you still not listened to the songs they provided for other people and the commissioned arrangements ...?

It finally appeared. wwwww

Yurippe is necessary for the Earth.

Come to think of it, why is Gane such godlike music? No—put the other way around, is it Gane because it is godlike music? We have still never heard music created by them that is anything less than godlike. That is why some people go mad when they hear music comparable to theirs, endlessly writing things like “worse than Ai Otsuka” and “what nonsense,” until people appear who keep posting statements that are practically half-insane. But why do you not look at reality a little more? From every angle, Gane is flawless—in other words, perfect, godlike music. Consider the forceful lyrics: short, but every line seems to stab straight toward you. And their appearance, with stage clothes even better than those of any other musician, let alone their casual clothes (because they are so godlike that anything suits them), along with melodies that seem like fierce beasts patiently watching for the right moment to seize their prey. Countless people in this world have fallen for this sharp, beautiful music, desperately searched for them, and had their lives thrown into chaos. Their signature page even displayed the miraculous number 1,784,892 people. Even if the Earth lasts thousands more years, no one will ever produce a number like that again. It can only be called a miracle of the universe. Anyone who says bad things about artists like that (or should we call them gods?) must be completely mentally ill. Human beings inevitably become jealous when they see something beautiful. So perhaps it cannot be helped that people like that appear. Ah, I have gone on a little too long. Sorry. In other words, Gane is an extraordinary, godlike music that transcends jealousy and envy. Simply saying “Gane is godlike music” makes every living thing pure and unstained; in other words, it probably purifies every soul until it is as innocent as a newborn baby. Sorry, but let me say this once more at the end. The fact that Gane has existed in this world is a miracle of the universe. They will surely be remembered forever by later generations as a miraculous presence.

Four days until the live ...

647: Anonymous music critic, 2006/12/16 (Sat) 14:46:02 ID:??? The Legion members apparently plan to hold a year-end party after the live on the 28th. Shiorina invited Ayako, but was turned down (´,_ゝ`) pff. Shiorina is as lacking in common sense as ever.

[ASCII art]

The first floor, three rows, has already gone over 35,000 yen ...

So the brilliant arrangement of DEEN's “Hitori ja Nai” was by Hiroto Furui. Amazing.

>>40 I like “Kimi no Kokoro ni Kaeritai.”

Is it “Hare-dokei” or “Hare-tokei”? Which one is it??

As the title, it is probably “Hare-dokei.” But in the song she sings “ha-a-reta-a ... to-o-kei-a ...”

It is “dokei.” Just use common sense.

I listened to the fourth album, but it feels pretty ordinary ... though I have not really taken it in yet. So far my favorites are Ameagari no Blue and Tsumetai Kage. The former has a great arrangement. How are these two regarded?

The flow of those five songs from “Blue no Mori” through “Kimi Tsuresaru Toki no Otozure” on the fourth album is excellent. That is basically the only section I still listen to now. The live version of Ameagari that someone uploaded here long ago is also good.

>>41 I like that one too. Also “Kimi ga Inai Natsu.” DEEN's mid-tempo ballads are really good. Perhaps the band themselves would rather make darker music. “Ameagari ...” is a little catchy and a little light and airy. I still prefer “Yuuzukiyo,” after all.

Every Tokyo live has a large number of illegally resold tickets in circulation. If you find resale information on Yahoo Auctions or elsewhere, post as much of it as possible in this thread so it can be reported to the organizers. Then the organizers should bar those seats from entry through strict admission checks and similar measures.

At the Osaka live, when they performed “Sorairo no Neko,” the English section at the end turned into a “let's all sing together~” moment. But I had not memorized the lyrics, so I could not sing. They did not display the lyrics on the screen either ... Those going to Tokyo should memorize them in advance. Though they might not perform “Sorairo ...” after all.

Do not throw the ball to a place like that. lol

Also, at the beginning of “Kakurenbo,” during “one, two, three,” Yurippe points with her fingers: 1, 2, 3. So everyone should do it for her too. They will definitely perform “Kakurenbo.”

The live reaches its final moment, with the song “Sayonara” and only that one word. Yurippe, who experienced a sad parting last month, sings at full volume while tears stream down her face. During the instrumental break, Yurippe, overwhelmed by emotion, finally collapses and sobs loudly. With the vocalist absent, the song continues quietly. AZUKI Nana, who has been watching from the back, approaches Yurippe and stays by her side. With AZUKI Nana supporting her, Yurippe stands up and, with an arm around her shoulders, sings the rest of the song.

Then in “A Crown,” during the line about “a tiny crown you can see,” Yurippe points at the sky. Everyone should raise an index finger together. It would be moving if everyone did it together. Though they might not perform “A Crown” either.

>>51 That is pretty lame. lol

I will cry if they do not perform “A Crown.”

It feels as if they decided to add a gesture to every song. >>1 Thanks for the thread.

Thanks for the thread, >>1. The rest of the post repeats “>1” hundreds of times as spam.

On the official site: The new song “Kono Te wo Nobaseba” has been confirmed as the new ending theme for the TV Tokyo anime MÄR Heaven, starting Sunday, January 7. Why does nobody want to mention this? Leaving it untouched for ten whole days is too pitiful for GARNET CROW.

>>58 When I found out through the G-NET email, I had already complained about it plenty.

Go join the FC.

What am I inviting you to, anyway? orz × Let us join the FC together. ○ You go join the FC.

Will there be a double encore?

I want three songs in the encore. Two would make it like the Pan show.

It would be fine even if they did not do an encore. Why not just include the encore songs in the main set?

Only someone who has never been to a live would say that.

>>61 Speak Japanese.

GARNET's lives are basically just an excuse to go see the members anyway. Personally, I do not need a very long encore.

>>66 I do not want to hear that from a trash fixed-ID poster, but let me correct it. “Join the FC” → “Get into the FC.”

Self-dialogue is annoying.

Go ahead and understand it that way.

Did you not already go to the Osaka live? Go attain enlightenment already, you trash fixed-ID poster. It is unbearable that someone like this is a fan.

All right, all right ... You are both fans and both the same kind of person, so get along.

No. Absolutely not.

“Kaze to RAINBOW” ♪ As if heading to the end of the world, with your back to the dawn~ That melody is exactly the section before the chorus of Lupin's opening theme ...

The trash fixed-ID poster has not even joined the FC, has he? lol He clings to the free newsletters, but everyone already knew that. www

That is why ... you are both at the same level, so get along ... It is just an anonymous user who changed to a fixed name. Nothing else has changed.

That fixed name is unpleasant.

Compared with FC members, the difference in level is enormous. Judging from the posts, he does not seem to know much either.

If you like them, you are a proper fan. “Difference in level” is irrelevant. Knowledge and membership do not matter either. (In the end, the amount of knowledge is not worth boasting about ... there probably is not much difference.) ... Do you think you will understand if he merely changes the fixed name?

If he annoys you, just set him as NG, idiots.

Using the anonymous name is fine.

Whether you reply “Are you idiots?” or call yourself “Everyone should die,” it is the same thing. 　　　　　　　　　　　　It suits a GARNET thread perfectly. www

Everyone is excited before the live.

It has been one year since Minshine inherited the name, huh? He has kept it up for a long time. He can quit now.

He has reached the point where he cannot quit even if he wants to. It is painful to watch. He was even posting anonymously on the day of the live.

The Osaka tickets were like ePlus standby tickets too, right? Yet he was happily posting here. They must have been the very last seats. www

This is >>45, but after listening a little more, my rating of Ameagari no Blue has gone up and my rating of Tsumetai Kage has gone down a little. My rating of “fill away” has recently shot up. My rating of “Kono Fuyu no Shirosa ni” has also gone up a little. SL is excluded.

How do you rate “fill away”?

On the fourth album, I like “Yuuzukiyo,” “Kono Fuyu no Shirosa ni,” and “Kimi Tsuresaru.”

I started listening with the best-of, so perhaps because of that, I cannot bring myself to like “Yuuzukiyo” or “Kimi Tsuresaru.”

I get goosebumps no matter how many times I listen to “Kimi Tsuresaru.” lol “Hey, look at the sky. You can see a gap in the blue sky. It is almost time for a rainbow to appear.” My current girlfriend actually said something like that. I cried.

>>88 Personally, it is good enough to compete for first or second place on the fourth album. lol The outro is excellent.

The fact that he uses a pathetic trash fixed name like Minshine alone shows a deviation score of 30. That by itself makes it impossible for there to be no gap in knowledge level. Amount of knowledge and income are almost directly proportional; low deviation scores mean low income. So it is understandable that he has not joined the FC.

The knowledge of the residents here is probably not that different from Minshine's either. I have no idea about income, though ...

Please do not lump me together with the half-baked Minshine who appeared only after the best-of was released.

Normally, would a name like “Everyone should die” not make people uncomfortable? And you call that “GARNET-like”?

The people who casually say “GARNET songs equal a death impression” are the half-baked fans.

Take the trash fixed-name discussion somewhere else.

Minshine-chan became an unpleasant child after losing the Premium Live lottery. I am sure he was extremely disappointed, but it is too pathetic to keep brooding over it like this.

100, to help Minshine attain enlightenment.

Minshine may call himself a Kansai person, but he comes from some backwater that takes two hours to reach from Osaka, so he does not even speak with a Kansai accent.

I hope they release a B-side compilation sometime next year ...

Are they all poor people who cannot even collect all the singles ...?

>>84 No, anyone can use a name like “Minshine,” so who knows how many different people have been behind it? lol

No one except the original would want to use such an unreasonable trash fixed name that completely exposes how stupid they are.

Conversely, if you want to write something unreasonable that completely exposes your stupidity, why not use this guy's fixed name? Though I would never do that.

I came because I look like that girl vocalist. By the way, I am male.

>>107 Your ID is even GC. How about posting a photo of your face?

>>107 Toe is the tie-up artist for “flying,” and M+h is MÄR Heaven. (;^ω^) Whoa, that is amazing.

Has a god descended?

AZUKI 111.

What exactly is the big announcement on the 20th ...? I am really curious ...

It would be nice if it were a Detective Conan movie theme song.

Break　　up?

>>114 Or Mochi gets fired.

Seriously, could it be a breakup? They know themselves that the quality is declining day by day, right?

>>112 Where was that written?

I love Yurippe.

At the Osaka MC they said so many things like “GARNET CROW will be doing all sorts of things in 2007.” There is no way they are breaking up now, right?

Are they recruiting a new member?

How about making the current vocalist a backing vocalist and bringing in a new lead singer? Yurippe has pretty much ... reached the end of the road.

I forgot to sage.

It would be nice if Nana released a photo book.

Could it be their first challenge at voice acting for an anime ...?

A big announcement? I did not receive an email.

Apparently they are going to release a mini-album, yo.

Huh, somehow that feels a little anticlimactic~

>>125 I did not receive one either. By the way, where did the information come from?

The “keep baiting people” routine that was started to fill the previous thread is still going ...

Is Yurippe already thirty ...?

Yurippe will be twenty-nine next year, the year after, and the year after that too. She is eternally twenty-nine.

If Yurippe also debuted nationwide in the US, she could probably earn six billion yen in six years.

It is not like that. Even Yurippe will surely grow older. But no matter how old she gets, I do not think Yurippe's beauty will change. Yurippe's beauty is eternal.

>>133 Why do you sound like you are about to run out of breath?

That must be because I was speaking so passionately about Yurippe's beauty.

For some reason, that killed me. lol

Yurippe's small breasts are eternal too.

She hates having small breasts, so she stuffed in padding or something ...

My love for Yurippe is eternal too.

Could the announcement be that she is marrying Mochi!?

Could the event early next year be a Valentine Live ...? No way.

The 20th is Nana's engagement press conference with me, the handsome Mr. Hills.

I am meeting Yurippe on the 24th.

Yurippeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!

Yurippeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!

You have completely forgotten that Nana will be thirty-four next year. As far as I am concerned, Yurippe turning thirty is nothing.

Why not throw out the old woman and replace AZUKI Nana with the new member MIZUKI Nana?

Or HIZIKI Nana, for example.

Congratulations to Yurippe for placing twenty-fifth in a magazine poll for “female singers who would feel good to kiss.”

I also hear that Gane will break up once Mochi goes bald.

>>149 What about the rankings above her?

This place used to have residents coming and going all night too. There was a time like that. That was back when Yurippe was still a virgin.

>>149 Tell us more.

The Tokyo show starts at 19:00, but given their usual performance length, it will probably run past 21:00. By the way, why does it go so late ...?

I hope the new song is not one of those shiny pop, Latin-flavored, fast-tempo songs.

AZUKI Nana will be thirty-four next year. You cannot tell~

I think so too. She looks about thirty-three at most.

edz@g ◆P2unpRNWwM Commonly known as Edo Zagu. He used to vehemently deny being called an anime otaku, but lately he has turned his anime-otaku appearance into a running joke. Fewer and fewer people pay attention to him now, which is rather sad to watch. At first he did not even know how to add sage or a trip; now he is completely steeped in 2ch culture and even uses 2ch at work. hotaruika ◆5b/4Q4KG6k A trash fixed-name poster who mistakes 2ch for the back of a flyer or something. He mainly talks about artists other than GARNET CROW. Even when told to sage, he does not; he completely ignores replies telling him to sage. He also completely ignores replies inconvenient to him. Probably the worst kind of fixed-name poster. Someone stop him. edz@g ◆.cOjTjK0LY A fake Edo Zagu. If you question him about changing only his trip, he rambles on and on. Even though the real Edo Zagu told him, “Do not use someone else's fixed name,” he ignores it. His replies are the same provocation every time. Best not to engage. manmosu Not a fixed-name poster, but someone who writes “sage manmosu” in the mail field. He has been appearing frequently lately. From his replies, he is an embarrassing person who thinks his musical taste is sophisticated. Apparently he likes Gimmes, Lagwagon, 18 Wheeler, and TEB. People like this are probably why others say, “This is why Western-music otaku are ...” Ahha Namikoshi ◆WWkTvYxtEs He does not appear often, but whenever he does, he writes a couple of lines about Yuri Nakamura's body (especially her breasts or lips), then disappears. His hours are unknown, so he is difficult to understand. It is unclear whether he qualifies as trash, but he is another age-bumper. Shiori Takei ◆DLFTWsKbr. A troublemaking fixed-name poster who appears every weekend and clings to this thread all day. He is another age-bumper. He posts under both a fixed name and anonymously, but the identical ID gives him away immediately, which is pathetic. His posts are also self-indulgent and pathetic. He uses Shiori Takei's name, but is probably a hater. He recently claimed to have graduated; we will see what happens. みんな死ねばいいのに ◆DLFTWsKbr. Usually appears in the morning and evening on weekdays, but can actually appear at any time. At night and on days off, he is practically glued here. After losing the Premium Live lottery, he began writing painfully embarrassing posts. He especially likes replying to other people's replies, while completely ignoring anything inconvenient to him; it is malicious. He also inexplicably set his fixed-name trip to the same one as Takei's. Is he a successor? He once said he would graduate from using a fixed name, then immediately took it back; his words and actions are often inconsistent. Although he does not bump the thread, he seems to like Gane deep down, but all he looks like is a troublemaker. Even though the people in the thread have recently ignored him completely, he keeps replying and trying to gain attention through a Kansai accent. At the Valentine's Day live, he removed his fixed name to blend into the conversation and quietly posted anonymously. He is simply a coward. Basically, none of these people can understand ordinary human speech, so please do not engage with them.

Ueki appeared on Mezamashi, and after that she was on television whenever something happened, but Gane never appears.

× She was on television, but Gane never appears. ○ She was reported on Mezamashi, but Gane is never reported on.

Is it an additional show?

Ao-isshoku ◆PMpS55dIgc Which community is this person from?

I am coming to Tokyo from out of town tomorrow and will arrive right around showtime. Do Gane's lives usually start late?

They are always late.

I see.

http://www.ytv.co.jp/geikoi/ranking/ranking0922.html Congratulations to Nana for ranking 202nd.

Yurippe did not make the rankings. wwwwww

What time do they start selling merchandise tomorrow? I want to arrive around then; does anyone know, even approximately? Also, is the sticker set limited in quantity? Sorry for all the questions ...

>>164 Thanks.

She is in the same league as Nanase Aikawa and Satomi Ishihara. wwwwwwww

Mariko Ishihara's story—is that a tell-all book? wwwww Does Mochi have anything to do with this too? wwwww

Bekka○ is reselling again. ★ Mai Kuraki ■ 12/31 Pacifico Yokohama ● Countdown live — pair of tickets These are fan-club lottery tickets for Mai Kuraki's first countdown live. I cannot go myself, so I am reluctantly putting them up for sale (＞ ＜). I won them and have already transferred the payment, but the tickets have not arrived yet. To prevent an improper act such as sending the buyer inferior seats after the tickets arrive here, I will tell the winning bidder the name on the ticket before it arrives, so please do not worry. http://page16.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/auction/u8410348 There is no way the tickets simply will not arrive. Even if they really have not arrived yet, auctioning something you do not physically possess violates the auction rules. Please report it: http://page16.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/show/reviews?aID=u8410348

Do it yourself, you coward.

Is it another偷拍犯? [Someone who secretly takes photos?]

Although these are ticket resales, most of them are counterfeit tickets, so buyers can only swallow their losses. But buyers are also at fault, so it is their own fault. Even if they give their address and name online to strangers (organized crime, yakuza, extremist groups, etc.), they are entirely responsible for it themselves.

>>168 Around five to five-thirty. But the bags are huge and will get in the way.

You are what is getting in the way.

Nice, >>177. That made me laugh.

Do they give you a bag when you buy merchandise? I want to go with my hands as empty as possible.

I did not get a ticket, but can I still buy merchandise? The venue is very close to my house~

>>179 Of course they give you one. lol It is orange, with the members' faces printed on it. >>180 Yes, you can.

Wow, the merchandise is too expensive, though. It is always like this, but it is obviously made at very low cost ... what a rip-off.

>>182 If you know that, then do not buy it. I have no interest in merchandise at all.

>>183 I know, but buying it anyway is what being an otaku is, right? The merchandise I have bought so far is just gathering dust in the corner of my room ... By the way, if you have no interest, do you not even buy the concert program?

All the drooling fanatics should disappear.

Yurippe will release the live photo book “8.15 OKINAWA yurippe” on December 21. (bounce.com — December 18, 17:30) GARNET CROW vocalist Yuri Nakamura's live photo book “8.15 OKINAWA yurippe” will be released on December 21. It consists entirely of scenes of Nakamura Yuri singing on stage at the August 15, 2006 “YURIPPE Okinawa Zero-Waste Operation One-Man Live Special 2006” at the outdoor theater in Ginowan Seaside Park, Okinawa. The feelings she poured into her singing are condensed into 138 beautiful photographs. To commemorate the release, a photo exhibition will be held from December 19 through 25 in Space A at the Aoyama Book Center main store. It is a limited-time event, so go as soon as possible! [Photo exhibition commemorating the release of “8.15 OKINAWA yurippe”] Dates: Tuesday, December 19–Monday, December 25 Hours: 11:00–20:00 Venue: Aoyama Book Center main store, Space A Admission: Free Inquiries: Aoyama Book Center main store (18-1811-1111) ※ Entry may be restricted depending on conditions. ※ Limited quantities of commemorative merchandise and music CDs will also be sold.

>>184 True. I do not buy the concert program either. I feel that everything except the music is irrelevant. Still, I can understand wanting to buy one as a souvenir.

>>186 I cannot get through on the phone.

Thanks. All right~ I will race over on my motorcycle as soon as work ends.

Is Mochi leaving? Who is the new member?

>>190 Chika Yoshida.

>>191 How many people even understand that joke? lol

Today is Taian, an especially auspicious day. Perfect for announcing happy news.

Ah, so it is about Hiroto Furui and Nana.

I am going to make a splash at Shibuya Public Hall today!

http://ja.wikipedia.org/wiki/GARNET_CROW I looked at it for the first time in ages and was surprised to find that it has become quite detailed.

All right, Dad is going to buy up all the merchandise in Nakano.

I should probably get ready to leave soon too. (´･ω･`)

It would be bad to get so excited during the actual show that I ejaculate, so I will masturbate first and then go. (´･ω･`)

Why not ejaculate during the actual show?

I am just about to arrive in Nakano. Is there an Internet café around there?

I took care of it myself.

The Beckham Legion has arrived.

At last I will see Yurippe in person and the live God Hand for the first time.

I have to work from now until late tonight. I will look forward to everyone's live reports.

Oh! Leave it to me, you disgusting otaku.

The Saegusa Legion has arrived.

Yurippe has arrived.

Has Nana appeared yet?

Nana has arrived.

Stop posting live reports.

The concert has started.

If you have enough time to look at a screen and post live reports, then watch the live properly and burn it into your eyes.

The encore has started.

What kind of development is this? lol I accidentally laughed.

For a moment I thought I had gotten the time wrong. I really panicked.

By the way, what exactly is the big announcement? I would feel better if it turned out I had simply been baited.

>>217 It is probably bait. It started as a baiting routine just to fill the previous thread, but the people who took the bait appeared in this thread too, so the baiting is still going.

Yuka Saegusa has joined, bringing the hit song “Kumo ni Notte” as a gift.

Since it sounds like chanting, it should be called a “mystery song,” right? lol

The merchandise is selling like crazy.

The happi-coat guy is attending the Tokyo show, right? If anyone who arrived early has a chance, please post a picture.

Oh, there is someone like that. He is the guy who wears a homemade happi coat with “Rai・Rai・Ya” written on the back. lol I really want to see what he looks like. I would appreciate a picture too if anyone has a chance.

Oh no, I am starting to get sleepy. (´・ω・｀)

How many years until the next live~?

I missed the merchandise sales. orz Can I buy it later?

There is an enraged delinquent at the Internet café nearby. wwwwww

Have the merchandise sales already ended?

The area in front of the venue is full of people carrying orange bags. lol

Let the show start already! щ(゜Д゜щ) Come on, aaaaaah!

I caused a scene at the Internet café, and some strange fat otaku reported me ...

Stop causing trouble.

You will not be allowed into the venue like that, idiot!

Nana has arrived━━━(゜∀゜)━━━!!!!

Are her breasts big!?

I am curious about Yurippe's outfit.

I did not get a ticket, so on my way home from school I only went to buy merchandise. Thinking that everyone was about to go see Yurippe and the others made me jealous, and I left Nakano like that. Next year I will definitely get a ticket. Damn it.

Huh? Why is it so quiet? Was the big announcement really that shocking??

GARNET CROW will transfer from GIZA to SME. If that is true, I do not want it.

It is the Tokyo live today. I love you, Yurippe.

>>239 I would actually welcome that.

Has it not ended yet~?

Is everyone crying from emotion right now? (´・ω・｀)

Are there any moving moments in GARNET's songs?

They are probably singing “Spiral” right now.

Oh, “Spiral” ...

I keep saying that Nana is the fool and Yurippe is the straight man, but nobody understands me ...

Big announcements at the Tokyo show: ・Yurippe got her ears pierced. ・Two singles will be released simultaneously on February 21. ・“Kono Te wo Nobaseba” was performed in advance.

Today Yurippe unusually did not stand completely still, and there was no “Spiral.” The final song was “Bokura dake no Mirai.”

Is it over? How was it today?

>>248 Yurippe's ear piercing was already confirmed at the Osaka show. Actually, she had already done it when the concert program was photographed.

Oh, so that is what they announced. I was wondering about it earlier. Did she say anything?

The opening music has become “Gane Gane-kun.”

Does piercing your ears not hurt? Having a part of your body penetrated and all ...

Please share your impressions of “Kono Te wo Nobaseba.”

Nana-sama's small breasts~ (*´Д｀) huff huff

Did Nana say anything?

Neither Nana nor Hiroto Furui spoke.

As for “Kono Te wo Nobaseba,” I think the CD version will be good. But the vocals did not come through very well in the live performance.

I did not hear it in Osaka, so I am really disappointed. Did the set list change in any other way?

The dog on the edge of the cliff.

>>261 Is Mochi reusing the same joke again?

I spent the entire show looking only at Yurippe's breasts. I am truly sorry.

There was also “Blue Handkerchief.”

>>263 You were still saying things like “Has Nana appeared yet?” after noon, and this is how it turned out? lol

Did the set list change? Was “Kono Te wo Nobaseba” the only addition?

There are far too few live impressions.

The set list was exactly the same as Osaka ... I wanted to hear “Kiiroi Tsuki” ... “Kono Te wo Nobaseba” is incredible! It feels like a graduation song ... The lyrics are just as intense as ever ... Something like, “Why do you only hold me tightly when it is time to say goodbye?” It is a song about being able to stop someone simply by reaching out your hand, but not wanting to destroy that future, so you gently and sadly watch them set off.

So aside from that, there were hardly any changes.

What do you mean by “incredible”? Do you mean it was really good?

There were two idiots bouncing around in front who were especially annoying. They were in the way; they should realize they are bothering everyone around them.

Then I guess the outfits were probably the same too. The songs were moving, but that mirror-ball outfit was not acceptable. lol

How was Nakamura's condition?

The bouncing guy was two rows in front of me. So annoying. Even worse, the guy diagonally in front was taking pictures of Yurippe with a digital camera. He should die.

Was photography allowed? It was not secretly taken, was it? (ry

The movement during the “miwaku no body line~” part of “Kaze no Naka ni” was cool. I think the mirror-ball outfit helped too.

Sorry to interrupt while everyone is excited about the live, but I have already opened the next thread. Come visit again. 【The Truth of the Universe】I Love Yurippe. Worship Thread 10【For Real】 http://music5.2ch.net/test/read.cgi/mjsaloon/1166621060/

>>268 If you compare it with an older song, which one would it resemble?

Was the MC almost the same as in Osaka? Did they mention anything related to next year's “7”?

It was secretly taken. By the way, they will surely release a Tokyo live DVD, right?

>>274 So he was a little in front of me. By the way, there was also an idiot next to the aisle in front row taking pictures with a digital camera or camcorder. Are the people in that area the group that is famous here?

The mirror-ball outfit ... Did it have the kind of feeling that Akiko Wada would wear??? I do not want to imagine it.

>>279 Are you talking about the fact that Mochi used to work at 7-Eleven?

Maybe it is a ballad like “Call My Name.”

Secretly taking pictures is incredibly rude. It is fine to be a fan, but when people like that are around, everyone else gets seen as the same kind. Give me a break. People who take secret photos should die.

>>283 I think that is probably the first I have heard of it. In Osaka, I remember them saying his shoe size was 27.

Anyway, Yurippe's glittering outfit was incredible. It was the best live so far. I am deeply moved. But Azuki's presence was too low. If that is all she does, anyone could replace her.

>>287 Glittering, yet leaving no trace~♪

Was there only one encore?

“Yume mita” has become like “Dai 9” now. The backing vocals are gone, and violin and other instruments have been added. The sunflowers also matched the visuals perfectly; the effect was excellent.

Then Azuki should wear kindergarten children's clothes ...

It would be fine to say “Yurippe is the best! Nana is the best!” But someone saying “Furui is the worst!”—I do not know whether they were joking—was really unpleasant to hear. Still, “Kono Te wo Nobaseba” really is excellent.

>>263 Today Yurippe-sensei wore the mirror-ball outfit, size 78, B cup. I kept staring too, so I sincerely apologize with this confession.

What do you mean, “the worst”? He was completely inconspicuous. (´・ω・｀)

78 is a B cup? I know absolutely nothing about sizes ... So an A cup is actually quite small, I guess ...

I was waving at Yurippe, but the God Hand guy waved back at me. lol There really were two or three photographers at the venue, though, taking pictures for the fan club newsletter or a photo book. Could you have mistaken one of them? If it really was a fan taking secret photos, that is unacceptable.

I do not think they will release a DVD this time.

>>296 I do not think an official photographer would use a digital camera, so it was probably a secret photo ... That is the worst. (-_-;)

Apparently some noisy idiots kept interrupting her while she was speaking, such as during the seventh-anniversary section, so Yurippe could only smile wryly ... She did not show it on her face, but I am sure she was pretty annoyed inside.

I hope Yurippe can live for a long, long time.

Before I knew it, I had claimed 300 for Yurippe.

Only for Yurippe?

Interrupting during the MC is bad manners. Even the people bouncing around stayed quiet during the MC.

Do people in Tokyo not even know basic manners?

The guy doing a little otaku-style dancing made me laugh.

Also, Nana seemed to be wearing glasses when she came back for the encore.

>>277 The previous thread was almost entirely Nana causing trouble. Good luck with this one, too~

The members are staying at a hotel in Akasaka tonight ... Though they are still at the after-party ...

Someone tell me the set list.

Did she sing “Please give us love too~” in “Eden”?

I thought I was buying the concert program, but it turned out to be a calendar ... orz People really love buying merchandise~ Where are you supposed to wear that pink T-shirt? lol

Live.

I use it as pajamas.

E-mail: sage Message: >>308 Yurippe said on the radio that she is not attending the after-party. Set list Anywhere Rusty Rail HAPPY DAYS? Holding, You and Swinging Kakurenbo WEEKEND Call My Name Himawari no Iro Timeless Sleep Kimi no Omoiegaita Yume Atsumeru Heaven (Mochi version) Maboroshi Yume Mita Ato de Rai Rai Ya Yume Hanabi Sorairo no Neko Marginal Man Kaze to RAINBOW (new song) Koyoi Eden no Katasumi de Encore A Crown Kono Te wo Nobaseba Bokura dake no Mirai I do not remember perfectly, so the order may be wrong, but that is roughly it. Also, for some reason there was no member introduction.

Does Ms. AZUKI wear contact lenses? Judging by the way the light reflects in her eyes ...

I really want to hear “Kono Te wo Nobaseba.”

Correction: They also performed “Yasashii Ame” and “Last Love Song.”

Did they not perform “Yasashii Ame”? The member introductions were pretty perfunctory in Osaka too. Mochi was introduced during “MÄR Heaven,” but Nana and Hiroto Furui were only casually mentioned by Yurippe during the encore. When the string section left the stage (around “Yume Hanabi,” I think), though, the support members were properly introduced.

They did not introduce the Gane members. They did introduce the support members. What was that thing in the middle that sounded like an “oh~ yeah yeah” crowd-hyping ritual? I do not think they used to do that. Still, “Kono Te wo Nobaseba” was so amazing that I did not care about any of that. That song is incredible.

So what exactly do you mean by “incredible”?

>>317 They also performed “Seichi.”

>>278 It feels sadder and more grandiose than “over blow.”

Saying Hiroto Furui is the worst—would it not normally be “the best”? lol

By the way, this is the correct set list (I desperately wrote it down in the dark): 01 — Anywhere 02 — Rusty Rail 03 — Holding You, and Swinging (MC) 04 — Kakurenbo 05 — HAPPY DAYS?

＞319 Did Yurippe not say recently that she learned a lot from watching Madonna's live show? Maybe she was influenced by that. It felt so forced ...

>>324 Everything except the new songs was the same as Osaka. They should have changed more.

>>326 I agree. I thought there would be at least a few changes, so it was a mistake to read the Osaka report before the live. orz The biggest disappointment was that they did not perform “Yellow Moon.” www But Yurippe's voice was in incredible condition, and overall it was good that the set list was not just the same old songs as before. I think the balance was handled well.

Yurippe's singing on this tour was truly amazing. Thank you, Yurippe, for singing with such power.

>>325 Madonna is the one trying too hard! Yurippe is still only in her twenties.

The only disappointment was Yurippe's outfit. That part was truly disappointing.

That is it for this year's activities, right? Yurippe, good work.

Please release a DVD ... I really want to hear the live version of “A Crown” ... Please, GIZA-sama!!!!!

>>330 I agree. Was it the second live? She wore something like a hoodie then. I think that was cuter. I already knew what this time's outfit looked like from the Osaka report, but honestly, at first I thought, “Whoa, what the hell is that!?” After watching for a while, I stopped caring.

At the end of the A section in “Eden,” the low notes are so low she cannot sing them, even though it is her own song. lol And at the end of the chorus in “Kono Te wo Nobaseba,” there is a sudden drop to a very low note. It is so low that you cannot make out the words without the lyrics.

>>334 As usual, did they lower the key for some songs?

I really hope there will not be so many “attending with a guardian” people next time. There were far too many people who clearly seemed to be there only to accompany their kids. orz If you have to come with overprotective parents to see a live, then wait until you are older and come by yourself.

It is nice to come as a family. It feels warm. I would rather ban groups of grown men. They should go to an idol concert instead.

I hate people who come even though they have no intention of watching. When that kind of atmosphere is there, it brings the mood down for everyone else too.

It sounds like you are saying, “Children should not go to lives.” (^^) That is awful, just awful, GARNET fans. (^^) People like that would never bring me down. (^^) What brings the mood down is a group of lowlife men who cannot read the room. You bastards, stop making a scene right in front of me. (^^)

>>336 There is nothing wrong with that. Though if it is obvious they did not intend to watch, that is another matter. It could even be an opportunity for parents and children to become Gane fans together. By the way, did that “happi-coat guy” actually show up? lol

I attended with my parent, and my parent and the other parents around us were all pretty excited. Maybe that was because our seats were fairly close to the front.

Good morning. For parents, Gane's level of crowd-hyping is probably just right.

“WEEKEND” was really great ...

“Call My Name” and “Timeless Sleep” are cool no matter how many times I hear them live. The tempo picking up in the second half of “A Crown” also works great live. It was really good.

“Yasashii Ame” and “A Crown” are great when they speed up.

I am not quoting you because you are a stupid fixed-name poster, but Kagehoi, you are really dumb. Everyone who came was there to enjoy themselves, so the point is that even companions should read the room, right? You cannot read the room yourself, so you cannot understand how other people feel.

Anyway, thank you for this year too. Good work, everyone.

>>346 If they spend the whole time emailing on their phones to kill time or do something that inconveniences others, that is one thing. But demanding that they “read the room and pretend to get excited with everyone” is ridiculous. You are so narrow-minded that you cannot bear to face the fact that “Gane's songs are simply boring to some people,” and want to control even how companions behave. In a way, that is rather amusing. More annoying than that are the hardcore otaku who do not listen to the music at all and bounce around nonstop from beginning to end.

So, apart from the number of shows and the outfits, was this the best live ever?

>>330 >>333 I liked the third-live outfit best. Also, I think Yurippe is cuter with her hair down.

I agree with >>339 and >>348. Otaku who cannot read the room and do not consider whether they are bothering others are far more annoying. If you want to jump around so badly, go all the way to the back row.

Yurippe's outfit, lol. I thought she looked like an enka singer. I was completely shocked.

Am I the only one who liked that outfit??

I liked it too.

Forcing parents to come along means fewer seats, which pushes the fans who came genuinely excited farther back where they cannot see anything. Besides, there is no need for parents and children to come together, right? The people beside me were two middle-school girls, so the people who came with their parents were just greedy people who got two tickets and had no choice but to bring a parent. And there was even a kid who looked like a fourth grader there with his mom. What a waste of a seat.

This person is unbelievably stupid.

Germ, shut up☆

I quite liked that outfit too. o(^o^)o It looked especially good during “Anywhere”! Am I really the only one!?

What an embarrassing adult ...

I think more often the parents are fans themselves and brought their children along.

On the train back from Osaka, I was surprised to see an elderly man across from me carrying one of those orange bags. There were also combinations like a grandmother and grandchild. Is that not nice and heartwarming?

>>355 You are incredibly self-centered ... Is this not something to be happy about? Do you not think it is great that people of all ages come to see them? From the elderly people mentioned in >>361 to elementary-school kids, I am happy they came.

>>348 If it were free, that would be one thing. Then you could make the excuse, “Well, it was free.” But people paid a not-insignificant amount of money to come. You have to remember that what they bought was the experience of enjoying the show itself. For the same reason, I agree that otaku are annoying. Still, from how this conversation was going, I thought there really had been parents who were obviously bored. So that was not the case? I truly do not understand people who pay to go to a live they do not even want to attend.

This was my first live, and I was genuinely shocked by how unbelievably large the middle-aged male demographic was. Everywhere I looked, there were old guys ... It made me feel sick.

Anyway, stop having this pointless argument. >>324 So they performed Sorairo no Neko (=^・・^=). Do they perform self-covers too? Will they not self-cover “Tomatteita Tokei ga Ima Ugokidashita,” which they provided to ZARD, because the lyrics were written by Sakai?

>>365 I think they performed it only because it had been released on CD.

>>365 The production process for “Sorairo no Neko” was almost the same as for a song released under the Gane name. Rather than a song they provided to someone else, it was more like a Gane song with Sayu invited to sing as a guest.

You can really feel it at the live venue: GARNET clearly has not attracted any new fans in their teens.

>>368 Yeah. There were tons of old guys.

Thanks for the thread, >>1! The rest of the post repeats “>1” hundreds of times as spam.

>>368 No, there were plenty of people in their teens too. The person next to me was talking about an upcoming school trip. I think the anime tie-in is working.

There are teenagers who watch MÄR? lol I thought they were all anime otaku in their late twenties (ry

These days there are more and more narrow-minded, stupid adults who make a fuss over every trivial little thing ... (^^) I do not know what strange confidence you have, speaking as if you are so impressive. (^^) ＞>>344 You actually post such an embarrassing adult opinion in public. Good grief. www (^^) Ouch. >>369 So GARNET is popular with old guys, huh? (^^) Still, that is many times better than being called a band for fujoshi, right? (^^)

It is good to have families there too. They need support across a wide range of ages to keep going for a long time. Anyway, the person who chose that outfit this time should never be involved again. It would be much better to dress Yurippe in her usual jeans and T-shirt.

>>372 MÄR is not an anime that anime otaku would be interested in. There were already a lot of middle-aged and older people at the previous lives.

Whenever Nana starts talking, she reminds me of Yamane from Ungirls ...

If you say that, she will talk even less.

Nana wearing that knit cap from “Hare-dokei” was so cute.

British media report: Yurippe and Nana's uteruses give birth to triplets; all discharged safely; world's first case. It was learned on the 21st that Yuri Nakamura (29), who lives in western Japan and has two uteruses, and AZUKI Nana (age unknown) gave birth in September: Yurippe delivered identical twins and Nana delivered one baby girl, making up triplets. All three have now been discharged safely. Media including Britain's The Times reported the story. According to the newspaper, although there have been cases of one child developing in each of two uteruses, there is no previous record of three children being born, so this is considered the first case in the world. One in every 1,000 women in Britain has two uteruses. Since each uterus is less than half the normal size, childbirth is difficult. This birth was performed by caesarean section when the three babies weighed approximately 900 to 1,200 grams. (Kyodo) ttp://www.sanspo.com/sokuho/1221sokuho022.html

There was no need to force it into two separate releases.

I thought I would have to buy two, but one copy is enough after all. Lucky me.

But there are B-sides too, so you will probably end up buying both anyway.

I will buy them if the B-sides are new songs. If they are remixes or other versions of already released songs, I will pass.

Is it not a double A-side?

248: Anonymous, 2006/12/20 (Wed) 21:34:38 ID:Xpw7AOU/O Big announcements at the Tokyo show: ・Yurippe got her ears pierced. ・Two singles will be released simultaneously on February 21. ・“Kono Te wo Nobaseba” was performed in advance. Since two singles are being released at the same time, each one will have an A-side and a B-side, right?

You can tell from the FC email.

GIZA, you are awful, GIZA. At least do not put MÄR on the B-side.

>>298 No, official photographers use digital cameras now too. One had a Canon, and the other had a Nikon SLR. >>311 Why not wear it while riding your bicycle? The mood is “Maria Rosa.”

Who or what is Maria Rosa?

>>133–135 wwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww I laughed so hard my abs hurt. wwwwwwwwww

I read the FC email. The B-sides are incredible.

>>364 Still, you cannot talk with your friends so loudly in the hall that everyone can hear you. lol

At the live Yurippe said something vague about a “double single,” so I thought it meant a double A-side title. Then she said they would be released simultaneously, like at their debut. I could not figure out whether it was a double A-side or two singles released at once, and could not make sense of it at all. So that is what it means ... How stingy ... It completely killed the emotion I got from the live. GIZA, go die.

Also, while composing “Yume Hanabi,” Buddhist scripture was added to the lyrics, but the other members rejected it and asked for a revision. After the revision, that section was removed along with its melody [22]. That left me traumatized. How scary.

Minshine, who is not entitled to read the FC email, is still struggling there. It is hilarious.

Wait, did the FC email arrive? Why have I not received it yet?

>>393 Yeah. At first I could barely understand what she was saying.

Come to think of it, Yurippe's outfit was truly awful taste, but was it not also strangely tight and kind of sexy? Especially around her butt ...

6. w)�ヌ・漠・卅瀕堆・ぢ (Instrumental) Could this be the title of a new song?

Has it appeared on the official site already?

>>399 Her butt was squeezed in and jiggling. From what I could see, her breasts did not move. Pretty sexy. Did anyone confirm whether her breasts were bouncing?

What the hell is GIZA trying to do? Are they stupid?

Did they copy BUMP OF CHICKEN? They released “Karma / supernova” and “supernova / Karma.”

>>404 mihimaru GT did that too.

>>399 “Uha-nu Baku Sanju Setai Ji” This is a line from the Rigveda, a poem meaning “abundance” in the ancient Indian Vedic texts. It is very AZUKI Nana-like. In short, it is the Sanskrit version of “Rai・Rai・Ya.”

>>346 Here comes the idiot.

So the tracks are the same after all. In that case, you only need to buy one. Was it like “Yume Hanabi,” where each version had a different version of “Rai Rai Ya”? Did anyone buy both copies of “Yume Hanabi” back then?

ttp://www.google.com/search?hl=ja&q=%E3%82%A6%E3%83%8F%E3%83%8C%E3%83%BB%E3%83%90%E3%82%AF%E3%83%BB%E3%82%B5%E3%83%B3%E3%82%B8%E3%83%A5%E3%83%BB%E3%82%BB%E3%82%BF%E3%82%A4%E3%83%BB%E3%82%B8&btnG=Google+%E6%A4%9C%E7%B4%A2&lr= I got fooled.

The “~~~ / ~~~” format means it is a double A-side, right? So, what is the difference? I have never seen a single labeled ○/× and ×/○ before. Seriously, what is the difference?

>>410 The packaging is just different, right? Is it like KAT-TUN?

Someone mentioned BUMP above, but basically it is the same, right? With GARNET, only the B-side is slightly different ...

Will Oricon count them separately? BUMP's were combined, but this one has one different track ...

Is it not just separating the MÄR-cover version from the regular version?

>>412 BUMP had different hidden tracks.

Why not make one cover the Nakamura version and the other the Azuki version?

>>416 Would that not make the two of them compete with each other? Would you not hate that?

● Allegations that Johnny's Oricon rankings are fabricated Have you ever had the strange feeling that Johnny's artists do not seem especially popular, with only some fans making a fuss, yet Oricon says they sell extremely well? ...Apparently, there may be a reason. Oricon filed a 50-million-yen damages suit against a writer who questioned its undisclosed ranking methodology. Is this not an intimidation lawsuit intended to silence speech, like the one by Takefuji? The target was a roughly 20-line comment by Ugaya in a one-page article titled “Johnny's Gets VIP Treatment!? The Agency's Cozy Relationship with Oricon,” published on page 51 of the April 2006 issue of Cyzo. This is not only an allegation of manipulated Johnny's rankings, but also a large company obstructing an individual's freedom of expression. Why is the damages claim so high? Oricon's IR representative said, “We are not seeking compensation; we want to prevent more information that misleads people about the facts from spreading, and the large damages claim is intended to have a deterrent effect.” But lawsuits intended to suppress speech are illegal. Do not allow Oricon and Johnny's to bully an individual! More details: http://xtc.bz/index.php?ID=396 The website of Mr. Ugaya, who was sued: http://ugaya.com/

Then make them Okamoto and some old guy.

I will say just this: The music is the best. The members are the best. But you fans are the worst.

Since it was a double A-side, I thought they were being considerate about MÄR releasing too many singles and wondered, “Is this GIZA's version of a conscience?” Then I checked the B-sides carefully ... I see. GIZA.

This was a long time ago, but when I was in middle school, GLAY had already released double A-sides where they just switched the track order. But even if the B-sides are only slightly different ... I do not really want the MÄR versions, even if they include them separately. www I bought both copies of “Yume Hanabi,” but one copy should be enough this time.

Anyway, I plan to casually buy both.

TV Edit? I would much rather hear “Timeless Sleep,” and “flying.”

420 is right. If you are a fan, you should be happy even about a change in track order or a tiny difference in the included songs. I think that is normal.

The “Timeless Sleep” music video is the real deal.

What? That cover art? It kind of looks like they are picking on the guy playing guitar ... lol

>>425 Being happy about every little thing does not make you a fan ...

If they are going to do this anyway, they should make the Kaze-Rainbow version and Kono-Te version have different covers and track orders, and include a different music video on each. Make the regular edition a different cover too, add another B-side, and be completely blatant about it. I think doing it halfway is what makes both supporters and opponents dislike it. It reminds me of when TOKIO released “Sorafune.” Well, Johnny's fans are more supportive of multiple editions, perhaps because they can pull it off.

>>427 That made me laugh. He is subtly the only one standing farther away.

>>429 I do not understand your example at all.

>>427 If anything, it makes him stand out more, which is nice. lol

>>425 Are you here on business too, GIZA employee ...?

>>420 >>425 Are these posts not self-dialogue?

It was my first time seeing a guitarist in the support band who was not Oga, but was he not pretty cool? This time Yurippe would have made a good match with Kurose.

>>398 What is this? Are they trying to bait people with only a TV Edit ...? Pathetic.

They should at least include completely different B-sides, otherwise there is no point ...

As someone who only buys albums, I win.

>>1–438 You are Marginal Man. You are Marginal Man. You are Marginal Man.

Yuririn is the best.

If you do not collect all the singles, you are still just a chick.

>>441 Chicks are cute, so that is fine.

(゜д゜) blank stare

Shimeji 444.

>>435 I will not hand Yurippe over to Kurose.

>>441 Roosters are slaughtered when the time comes, and even hens have their eggs taken from them until they are slaughtered too. Chicks themselves are dyed weird colors and sold at night markets as “colored chicks.” Either way, none of them gets a decent death.

“Mawarimichi” feels like it will be a good song.

GARNET CROW is shit.

Yurippe is my everything.

Watching the DVD, I thought Yurippe was at her cutest during the First Live, or around 2002. She was so cute I nearly fell over watching the DVD. www I would not say she has gotten old lately, but she has a mature sensuality in a good way.

They could have used the MC to talk about the trip to Okinawa with Azuki.

It is fine to say Yurippe has become sensual, but Nana really does seem to have gotten older ...

Still, she has a good figure.

Come to think of it, AZUKI and Yurippe are the same age after all, right? Twenty-nine.

Anime-song singers.

>>459 I told you, no. AZUKI clearly looks older.

>>461 I meant their age.

The blue-and-black patterned shirt Ms. AZUKI wore at the live was really cool! It went perfectly with the black pants, and her legs were so slim. She looked really cool!

Being will not collapse.

Still, I think that person called AZUKI is quite beautiful for her age. She only looks old because she is standing next to Yurippe. Yurippe stays beautiful even as she gets older. It is cruel to compare them.

>>463 Really? That is great!

These days, do people say “pants” instead of “trousers” now ...?

Nana seems to like black clothes. Yurippe seems to like red, but personally I recommend light pink. Like that one live outfit. With her hair down, it was killer.

Gane's clothes are mostly black to begin with. Lots of the covers are black too, and most importantly, God Hand is almost always dressed in black. lol

GARNET Black.

During the live, Yurippe was wearing black until about the second song, was she not?

GLAY's JIRO playing guitar looks a little like Mochi.

What do you mean, “old guy”?

Yurippe is the pinnacle.

GC should really appear at the Tamori Station Super Live. Imagining them performing “SL” while listening to “Rin Rin Ga Ding” made them seem incredibly powerful. It is not just because I am a fan; I think ordinary people would also feel that GC's nostalgic sound has something special.

>>472 JIRO plays bass ... Sorry, I am a music nerd too, so I had to nitpick.

>>475 They have already appeared. They clearly did not read the room, and the singing ended pretty badly, so they will not be invited a second time.

Mochi often wears a brown T-shirt with a black shirt or black jacket. His bottoms are mostly dark jeans too. If he had black hair as well, it would look tacky, but his brown hair makes it work.

>>477 I have seen it on YouTube, so I know. But I think it was good that they did not follow the trend~

They have been left behind by the times ...

That thread turned into a festival back then. lol Basically, most of the residents were in an orz state.

The thought of seeing a live together with people who come here pretending to be fans honestly disgusts me. I would be fine with a much higher price, but I want them to hold something like a dinner show, with attendance strictly limited. I could easily pay up to 20,000 yen. I would not mind concert tickets being raised either, even to around 12,000 yen. Instead of releasing different CD versions, make it a two-disc set with picture labels. Release singles in different-version bundles and set the price at 2,500 yen. In short, stop doing these cheap-looking things and raise the unit price of every release. Please wipe out those annoying people who call themselves fans.

I will say just this: If you do not buy the CDs, do not have the nerve to call yourself a fan! Do not complain that concert tickets cost around 6,000 yen! If you are poor, do not come. If you are going to a concert, at least pay some attention to how you dress! (The members themselves work so hard. Read the room!)

>>482–483 ... What is wrong with this person ...?

You are a NEET, yet you have money. (laughs)

>>483 I bought all the CDs, but am I a fan if I have not joined the fan club?

>486 It is not my place to judge, but if your own conscience lets you call yourself a “fan,” then I think you are a GARNET CROW fan. That is just my personal opinion.

>485 I do not understand why someone would call me rich over such a small amount. And I do not understand why you decided I am a NEET. There is a limit to making things up on your own.

>>488 I think your replies are more self-righteous.

>489 Unfortunately, that kind of reply was expected.

>>482 This is not a fan website, and the quality has clearly declined compared with before. Troublemakers have settled in, so I think the fans have evacuated to fan sites or Mixi. You can no longer tell the general reputation by looking at 2ch like you used to. After reading >>490, I feel as if I just posted a pointless reply ...

You talk about wanting a dinner show and act like you are willing to pay any amount. If you actually lost the lottery for one of those shows, you would probably turn into another “Everyone should die” ... Just seeing you start using a fixed name makes it seem like you are headed that way ... disgusting. Stop using that name. Those annoying self-proclaimed fans sure have it rough.

>491 Thanks.

>492 I have missed out on tickets several times myself. If that really happens, I will accept it. I just want to do what I can within my means. I only want to do what I can to purify this thread. That is all.

I just hope you can understand that every time a self-appointed moderator like you shows up, this thread gets chaotic.

>495 I just want GARNET CROW fans to have a voice of reason and a conscience. I do not want to act like some self-appointed committee officer either. I just cannot forgive some of the trash here.

>496 You are glued to this place. Well, that is beside the point. Judging by >>483, did you hear people at the venue complaining, “What a waste of money to see this live,” or “That outfit is so tacky, lol,” and get furious? I can understand that, but trash is trash. Paying attention to them is pointless. Using a fixed name will only get you flamed too, so that is pointless as well.

Are you here to cause trouble again? Is this the legendary Wuthering?

Is it school vacation? Lucky you~

If I get 500, I will spend Christmas Eve with Yurippe.

Please spare us the dinner-show idea. That is just plain idol worship, lol. Your replies make you seem like the type who confuses kindness with indulgence, and defiance with having a point of view.

It is amazing to find a thread where people cannot even have a normal conversation about an artist.

>>500 I am so jealous.

>>500 Lucky you.

ID:JJ+xpJNC0 and all the people arguing with him (^^) This is really interesting (^^) “Purify the thread” (^^) “Self-appointed committee officer” (^^) Good grief~ Have you run out of material? www (^^) Come on, you all need to try harder. (^^) Do not have normal conversations. What I want to see is the kind of high-level, original discussion that only you people can manage. (^^)

If they sink to becoming dinner-show singers, in the end Mr. X will say, “They should have died after releasing the fourth album,” right? lol

I want to have dinner with Yurippe.

I want to eat Yurippe's dinner.

Yurippe wants to have dinner.

I want to eat the vomit Yurippe throws up after dinner for my own dinner.

When is the Nagoya live coming?

How much could I sell an autograph my uncle, a GIZA executive, got for me for on Yahoo Auctions?

When is the Hiroshima live coming?

Yurippe's breasts (*´3｀) smooch smooch smooch

This thread is full of idiots. lol

Give me some stimulation.

I want to eat Yurippe's post-dinner feces (golden poop) for dinner.

The pendant that sold out early at the Tokyo venue has, as expected, already been listed on Yahoo Auctions. The asking prices are 15,000 or 20,000 yen ... Resellers should die.

>510 >517 Either way, it is norovirus. Be careful.

I want to eat oysters!

>>520 They are safe if you cook them in a hot pot.

I would gladly accept Nana's norovirus.

That self-proclaimed blue bird is that arrogant junior-high-schooler, garnet.

... I think releasing two singles at the same time will make sales drop sharply. They will count separately, right? And the B-sides are the same too. What are they trying to do? Core fans might buy both, but ordinary fans will not. Would it not be better to make it a straightforward double A-side and boost sales by about a thousand copies? I doubt either one will sell even 10,000 this time.

If they were counted separately, they would not sell them this way, so they will probably be combined.

>>524 Ordinary listeners have already lost interest in Gane, so they are probably trying to squeeze a little more out of the regular fans. At the very least, I wish they would be considerate and make the B-sides different.

I thought they were releasing singles five months in a row, but Kaze-Rainbow has not even been released yet, has it? What is going on? Is it because of the live?

>>527 Kaze-Rainbow is on 02/21.

>523 You pretend to know, even though you know nothing.

I do not want to know either, but it is easy to guess how stupid you are. www

>530 Is “low intelligence” even proper Japanese?

Do not fight. Get along.

>532 Sorry, I cannot get along with people who have no inner rationality ... I wrote about what I mean by inner rationality here: ttp://ja.wikipedia.org/wiki/%E7%B4%94%E7%B2%8B%E7%90%86%E6%80%A7%E6%89%B9%E5%88%A4

The idea in >>523 that connects blue bird with garnet makes no sense.

>>533 ... What happened to this person ...?

>535 Something happened to me like what is described in “Weekend” on THE TWILIGHT VALLEY.

>>536 That killed me. lol

GARNET celebrates its 15th crown ... tops Oricon's annual chart with ¥12.7 billion (photo courtesy of Sankei Shimbun) Popular band GARNET CROW took first place in the artist total-sales category of the 39th Oricon Annual Ranking 2006 (chart period: December 5, 2005–December 18, 2006). Vocalist Yuri Nakamura, 29, attended the award ceremony at the New Otani Makuhari Hotel in Mihama Ward, Chiba, on the 21st. Led by their album THE TWILIGHT VALLEY, which sold about 1.77 million copies, combined sales of singles, albums, and music DVDs reached 12.7 billion yen. They were the only artist this year to surpass 10 billion yen. Nakamura smiled and said, “It is our sixth anniversary since debut. We also had a period of singing anime songs, so I am really happy to receive this award.” After winning awards including the Japan Cable Radio Awards and Nail Queen this year, GARNET CROW has now reached fifteen crowns.

>>539 Of course I do it because I think it is funny, you idiot! If it were not funny, I would not do it! Moron! It really is hilarious! wwwwwwwww Uha wwwwwwwww, I am so damn funny wwwwwwwwwwwww I am cracking up wwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww

The self-dialogue is so disgusting. ★

You are giving up because you are spending Christmas alone again, right?

If you hate spending Christmas alone so much, you could take a flight and use the time difference to escape it somehow.

But you would still be alone. No matter where you go, if you do not have a partner ...

Yurippe, get your English this fluent too! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lRQw9fESPjQ

Leave the English to God Hand. ... But she is the vocalist, so I guess that will not work. orz

Yurippe's diary has been updated.

>>544 Is that not Okamura?

Did he come to the live too? lol Looks like he will keep showing up from now on. www

The guy who writes that pile of crap called MÄR came too. If the people here found him, he might not make it out of the venue alive.

Anzai is so damn annoying. Looks like the MÄR tie-up will continue. But come to think of it, how many people are actually against MÄR?

Anzai, go die.

I want to shake hands with Yurippe too.

By the way, is there a photo of Anzai anywhere?

The Wikipedia page for Anzai even says he is a Gane fan and so on ... ttp://ja.wikipedia.org/wiki/%E5%AE%89%E8%A5%BF%E4%BF%A1%E8%A1%8C

And it says, ＞The anime has been using their theme songs since the program first began airing. 　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　~~~~~~~~~~~ What kind of wording is that ... It makes it sound as if Gane were allowed to sing the theme song as a handout ...

I googled Anzai, and apparently his reputation in the manga world is bad too. “Retsu-ka no Honoo” (Flame of Recca) lolwww

>>558 Matching Gane's quality with Retsu-ka no Honoo ... orz

Was Retsu-ka no Honoo not criticized for copying Yu Yu Hakusho?

>>557 Was it not “they have been allowed to use the songs”? If you quote it, do not alter the original. And the subject of the sentence is Anzai, so it does not mean what you say either. ... Though the Japanese on that Wikipedia page is awful too. lol “His hobbies are fighting games and collecting silver accessories. Currently on an indefinite writing hiatus.” I have no idea what that is supposed to mean.

After “HAPPY DAYS?” at the live, Yurippe's little exchange where she said “...That's right!” made me feel a little moe.

She usually does not respond to the audience, but she did that time.

>>561 ttp://72.14.235.104/search?q=cache:4RZEL7Wrb58J:ja.wikipedia.org/wiki/%E5%AE%89%E8%A5%BF%E4%BF%A1%E8%A1%8C+%E5%AE%89%E8%A5%BF%E4%BF%A1%E8%A1%8C+wikipedia&hl=ja&gl=jp&ct=clnk&cd=1

>>562 It seemed to me that she had naturally forgotten the title for a moment ... Was the MC in Osaka like that too ...?

[ASCII art]

>>565 Did she hesitate for a moment, unsure whether to ignore it and continue or respond?

I do not understand what you mean. KWSK [Please explain in detail].

Who changed it to “they have been allowed to use the songs” in such a short time? It reads much better now.

I have a feeling “Mawarimichi” will be hide-and-seek.

>>568 After Yurippe sang “Holding” and “HAPPY DAYS?” Yurippe: “I let you hear two songs from the first album. Does anyone know ‘Holding you, and swinging’?” Lots of audience members raised their hands. Yurippe: “Ah, so many people know it~ Thank you. Um, and there was one more ... um...” (she paused for a moment) “...the song just now.” Someone in the audience: “HAPPY DAYS!” Yurippe: “That's right!” That was roughly how it went.

Yurippe's nipples are nice nipples♪

In 2007, there is a 99.9% chance AZUKI Nana will announce the second installment of “80.0.”

Hey!! Hey, hey!!! Look at this!!!! ttp://d.hatena.ne.jp/keyword/GLOW%20LAZULY I hope they collaborate!!!!! Actually, first I want a CD!!

... And in the end, it was just a fantasy.

This is a joke that has already been around for a long time ...

>>563 The person who got Yurippe to react then must have been incredibly happy~

The new song will probably have some gimmick like different packaging. lol

Is today the final broadcast of the Kaze no Naka ni OP?

Colds and air conditioning.

Rina Aiuchi's “Miracle” was also used as a MÄR tie-in. Was that just because she is also with GIZA, or is the author an Aiuchi fan too?

>>571 I was at the Tokyo show too, but the audience member said “HAPPY DAYS.” They did not say “Holding~.” I kind of wanted Yuri-san to say, “Wrong~.”

>>574 That article full of fantasies is still up? Can it not be deleted?

Before I knew it, the official site had switched to a Christmas design.

Looking at Anzai's blog, it seems there will be something with Gane next year. Anzai is the same age as Azuki.

I thought the actual first row was not supposed to have anyone sitting there, but it was full, so I wondered, “VIPs?” Anzai was probably among them. There were a lot of young people, so editorial staff must have been there too. Also, the person who shouted “HAPPY DAYS!!” was probably the same one who interrupted Yurippe. Was the guy called Beckham, who often gets criticized here, wearing a soccer jersey or something? He was the only one who stood up and started moving wildly before everyone else had even stood up. It must have been difficult for Yurippe to keep singing without paying attention to him. Maybe he wanted Yurippe to notice him; he was going all out from beginning to end. As the members were leaving, he desperately showed off a jersey or something with “AZUKI7” written on it. Yurippe noticed it and told Nana-san. I was a little jealous of that one thing.

She had a look like she was holding back laughter. Maybe she was laughing at him?

That guy in the soccer jersey is a problem figure on some fan sites. Basically, happi coats and soccer jerseys are prohibited.

I could not see clearly as they were leaving, but did Yurippe and Azuki say something to each other? Also, did Azuki give any kind of farewell greeting before leaving this time?

>>586 >I thought the actual front row was not supposed to have anyone sitting there. No, the people who won fan-club tickets were sitting there.

... So if someone had organized a petition outside the venue saying, “Please stop doing MÄR tie-ins,” it might have led to an interesting outcome, right?

I did not know Anzai had a blog. In the comments, someone casually wrote, ＞But I would like to hear a GARNET CROW song that is not a MÄR tie-in soon★ That is hilarious. wwwwww You guys did that, right? wwwwwwwww

It was really disappointing that Yurippe did not blow a kiss at the live ...

Uha, I really want to receive that kind of fan service once. www

The G-NET Christmas card arrived.

>>592 “The songs are so good they kill you!!” What did this person think Gane's live performances sounded like before ...?

>>595 Mine arrived too. For some reason, Okamoto looks really sleepy. lol

Upload it already!!!

Go join the FC. Think about me too: my parents found my Christmas card on the desk in my room and put it somewhere conspicuous, as if they had discovered an erotic magazine ...

>>590 Sorry, my wording was misleading. I meant that ordinary people usually cannot sit in the very first row. (In other words, the row labeled “first” on the ticket is actually the second row.)

http://blog.livedoor.jp/mietang/ Anzai's blog.

If things are going badly, it feels like someone has already told them, “Enough with the tie-ins.”

Rather than “enough tie-ins,” I think MÄR will probably end around March ...

>>599 It is not a big deal if your parents saw it. Joining an artist's fan club is perfectly normal.

I got the Christmas card too.

Disgusting otaku ↓

Who will Yurippe spend Christmas Eve with? Just thinking about it makes my chest ache.

Listening to “Tatoeba 12-gatsu no Yoru ni” at Christmas makes me want to cry ... It is as if it expresses my feelings ...

I cannot decide whether to listen to “Marionette” or something else.

Does everyone have “Endless Desire” for Yurippe? lol

I am with “Only Stay.”

It is like you can only fall in love with Yurippe.

I am moving to “Nogaré no Machi” with Yurippe.

Can you still get the albums from their independent-label days? Are they rare?

>>614 You can buy them normally on Amazon. But the edition with the orange obi strip is extremely rare.

The regular version is easy to get. Stores may have it, or you can order it. They also sell it at concert venues. The first edition is different, though. Even though the only differences are the obi strip and track order, it sold for over 40,000 yen on Yahoo Auctions. It should not be worth that much.

Come to think of it, sample copies of the third album were once going for high prices too, because they included “Float World,” which had been excluded from the final release. I wonder how the people who bought them feel now.

Why is GARNET CROW not appearing on CDTV Special? Aiuchi can appear. Since GARNET can perform at Nakano, they should count as a national-level act. It is really strange.

>>618 They would probably scare the people in the venue away. lol The applause would probably be tiny too ...

>>619 ID:0oqD/nJF0 is a hater. This is the tactic of pretending to be a fan, sneaking in, and gradually putting them down.

Another lonely Christmas this year.

I hope Yurippe can be happy.

>>607 Was she not having dinner with Nana?

The Christmas card!? Did mine arrive too? I would be really crushed if it did not ... Oh, I should make a wish to Santa ... I hope Anzai's blog gets flooded with angry comments.

[ASCII art of a person asking everyone what they are doing for Christmas]

【International】The number of people so depressed they want to die surges during the Christmas season ★7 http://news19.2ch.net/test/read.cgi/newsplus/1166960018/

I got mistaken for a hater. lol

Oh no!! The Stopped Clock has Started Moving. God!!!!!!!!!

Still, everyone really hates Anzai, huh? www I hate him too. I wish that crap anime called MÄR would end soon.

Somehow I feel like Anzai might be kind of pitiful too, even though he is awful. When I imagine him earnestly replying to comments ... (';ω;`) *sniff*

He is still way better than you guys.

Come to think of it, since the members, including Yurippe, keep saying they like him, I cannot bring myself to hate him. lol And the members invited him this time too.

You cannot force yourself to like someone just because the person you like likes them. (Sorry if that is hard to read.) So I hate Anzai. I also think he has no taste, but he has created several hit works, so I suppose he is talented. I was really angry about Recca. I acknowledge that. But I still hate him. By the way, I know nothing about this, so let me ask. Is that clacking sound you can hear from the B section of “Eden” a xylophone?

I like Anzai ... If they had followed the original, it would have ended this year.

How does GARNET CROW really feel about the MÄR tie-ins?

On a day like today, you diligently hate on a manga artist. (^^) lol There seem to be lots of people here who are anti-Christmas. (^^) lol

Once someone has used “plagiarism” as a tactic, it is impossible to respect them as a creator ...

>>633 Which sound do you mean? At least I do not think it is a xylophone. Do you mean the guitar playing “piririri,” or the piano after “Koe wo Koroshi”?

In the end, you are all just jealous of Anzai, right? lol

In the December photo in the pamphlet, Azuki and the old guy are connected by the same chain. Are they dating?

Whoa, you are right. And looking closely, the old guy's left hand is behind her, resting on Azuki's left breast.

>>639 I am not jealous. As a fan, I spend every day looking forward to what kind of music they will make and what kind of events they will hold. It is fun to fantasize about what I would do if I ran into a member on the street. There is nothing happier than that. Controlling the direction of their music and deliberately arranging a chance encounter is not romantic at all! Anyway, it is better to keep some distance. That is only natural, after all.

>>633 It is a sound effect added from a synthesizer or something like that.

By the way, I put up the calendar, but I am worried the pages are too heavy and it might tear at the top ...

>When I first saw MÄR Heaven in the anime, I was really surprised that the lyrics >included “MÄR HEAVEN”! >I thought the song would keep being used, >so I was surprised when the next opening, “Hare-dokei,” began. >12. Posted by Anzai, December 24, 2006, 22:07 >To Mr. Aa > >I was surprised too. >That title. >But I was happy. Is he provoking GARNET fans? Or is the author just especially stupid ...? Anyway, Professor Anzai, please go die. ^^

This is awful, Anzai. Please stop having them sing the opening for that crap anime ...

>While drawing MÄR, Anzai was diagnosed with severe depression. > >I do not want to remember that time. >It was truly painful. >Drawing was truly painful. >I could not even draw storyboards properly. >I made something I could not accept. > >So MÄR is a living shame in my career as a manga artist. >(Even so, my gratitude to those who still like it has not changed.) > >Also, I am a fan of GARNET CROW, who perform the theme songs for MÄR. >They have been providing the theme songs since the anime began airing.

So the theme song for his “living shame” work is by GARNET CROW. I see.

Does Anzai even know what “but” means ...?

>>646 I hope they stop singing the ending too. No matter how much of a hit the next song is, if it is a “MÄR tie-in,” I will never be able to like it. Should I go flood his blog tomorrow?

>>650 That is not a smart idea. Even if you do, people will just think an idiot is throwing a tantrum. There must be a relationship between Shogakukan and GIZA too. It is not as if the tie-in is decided only between GARNET and the original creator. In the end, is the issue not just that the songs should not become too anime-like? If you expressed that idea more tactfully, the original creator might be more likely to accept it.

I also think you should not flood the blog. That would make people think GARNET fans have terrible manners ...

>>651 No, perhaps I worded it badly. I only wanted him to explain why he used GARNET's songs in a work he calls a “living shame” (if the rumor that Anzai is a GARNET fan is true) ... But someone has already copied this thread over there, so there is no need for me to write separately. I really want to hear a reply.

Wait. wwwww I just checked, and a link to this thread was posted over at Anzai's blog. wwwww

Anyway, it is neither piano nor guitar. With headphones, it sounds like “beep-beep-boop-boop, clackety-clack.” I am sure it is not an instrument played by a member; it was added in. As for effects, you cannot understand them without knowing the equipment, so ... sorry, I cannot explain it well. Maybe what >>643 said is right?

If it is convenient, please tell me what equipment it is.

What do you need to know the equipment for? Aiful???

I just want to look it up, I guess. Anyway, I feel a little bad about this; let us return to the original topic. Here, go ahead ↓

Good night. (^_^)/~~~

>>651 By the way, >In the end, is the issue not just that the songs should not become too anime-like? The bigger issue is that the lyrics become impossible to believe. I truly respect Nana-san from the bottom of my heart, but when it is a MÄR tie-in, her work only feels “cold” to me ... Sorry that this is hard to read. (My Japanese is pretty poor ...)

Yeah. (^^)/~~~

Of course, the music becomes impossible to believe too ...

Lately I have started finding Yurippe's voice kind of unpleasant.

Come on, come on, they are going to start marketing with the keyword “7”~!!!

>>655 I have not checked, so I am not sure, but could it be an arpeggiator? I do not know much about synthesizers either, so I could be wrong. Also, sometimes you can add effects and play a sequence phrase on guitar. The song “Setsunasa yori mo Tooku e” by SIAM SHADE uses tapping. But in that case, you can tell it is a guitar.

Azuki 666.

An AZUKI bad omen?

Just the fact that Anzai uses the term “Oshio-sensei” means he is a 2ch user. Does he not usually read this thread? If fans tell Anzai to die, it might just make him want to keep GARNET tied to MÄR even more. Anyway, if a weirdo gets fixated on them, they could be in trouble. Still, it is fine to provide songs for a stale anime and make stale songs, as long as they keep their quality elsewhere. Poor GARNET is being held back by hopelessly stupid GIZA employees and a trash manga artist.

>>668 Damn it. Anzai, go die.

＞Still, it is fine to provide songs for a stale anime and make stale songs, as long as they keep their quality elsewhere. Are you serious? They have been releasing stale songs all along, and you think they can maintain their previous quality ...? You are not seeing the situation clearly at all.

>5. Posted by Anzai, December 11, 2006, 22:57 >To Mr. Todo Unit 1 > >I am embarrassed to say I only know the GARNET CROW song used as the MÄR opening ... (T_T) Will I be able to enjoy it? So he is not actually a fan ...

test

Yes, exactly ...

I would be grateful if GARNET could make something at least like the third album.

>7. Posted by Anzai, December 12, 2006, 19:48 >To Mr. Todo Unit 1 >I see. (>_<) I am looking forward to it. By the way, the keyboard player is cute.

Everyone! Did you receive the postcard from GARNET CROW?

I would rank the third album near the bottom.

The MÄR author's blog replied to almost every comment, but did not respond to the link to this thread ... Since he replied to the comment that included the link, it is very likely he read this thread.

Of course he is reading it. It is hard to find anyone who does not know about 2ch these days.

>>676 It arrived. Okamocchi is great.

Hey! Is the MÄR author reading this? 　　　　　　　　　　　　　Go die.

That is rude, so stop.

I actually quite like Flame of Recca ... or2

>>683 You stuck your butt out!? Are you the submissive one!?

>>682 Which one? 1. You are speaking to >>681. 2. You are speaking to the great Professor Anzai. 3. >>682 is Professor Anzai himself, speaking to >>681.

638: Track No.774, 2006/12/25 (Mon) 16:21:01 ttp://blog.livedoor.jp/mietang/ Garnet fans are so stupid. lol Just because they dislike the anime tie-in the band got, they posted their own thread full of slander on the original author's blog. (^^) Do you really think that will make the tie-in go away? www Ah, right. (^^)

Did they deliberately give Nana almost no presence this time to push her forward next year ...? Well played, GARNET. She will be around thirty-four next year, right?

>>670 Because they are writing songs while being confined by the world of MÄR Heaven, they cannot make songs that fully express GARNET's original character. So it is fine if the MÄR tie-in songs are half-hearted from the start. As long as they can freely do what they want on other B-sides, album tracks, and singles unrelated to MÄR.

>>687 But in the end, nothing happened, did it? They just focused on Azuki because it is the seventh anniversary. Just like the old guy was born on the seventh and Yurippe was born in July.

At last year's live, Nana-san played “Sakura” during her self-introduction, but this year she did not speak at all, let alone perform. At least sometime next year, I hope they do the “Nana Night” she promised last year. If music is not possible, a diving trip with Nana would be fine too.

>>688 That would at most be a problem with the lyrics. It is not as if the melodies and arrangements have to be completely immersed in the world of MÄR. I have not watched MÄR itself, though. If anything, an overly solemn song like “Rai・Rai・Ya” sounds more like an anime song. Judging from the fifth album, the biggest reason is not the MÄR tie-in or anything like that, but an exhaustion of their songwriting ability.

I feel like Yurippe sometimes just talks big. Should I say she exaggerates, or just blurts things out too casually?

And a tour, too. That is on the same level as that person who kept shouting that they wanted a dinner show.

>>692 Mochi too. He said a PV collection would come out eventually, and that the Premium Live DVD would be released separately, and that they would release band scores. This time he said to look forward to an additional tour show, “Just wait and see.” None of it happened. There are too many vague statements that just keep people hanging.

I also oppose them doing MÄR tie-ins. But is the original creator the person who decides on the tie-in? Of course, he might participate to some extent as an observer or provide input, but in practice, is it not the anime production company or TV station that makes the decision?

Nana in a diving suit, huff huff.

>>695 Of course the original creator cannot decide everything, but he openly says he likes them, and the tie-ins have continued this long. That is the problem ...

>>691 What if the album tracks and arrangement of the fifth album were made to fit around the MÄR songs so they would not feel out of place ...?

Enough with hating on Anzai. We do not know the truth, but various things may have been involved in the decision. Honestly, I also want them to stop the consecutive tie-ins ...

AZUKI 700.

Yurippe, I am going to eat cake now.

>>698 I do not think that was the structure to begin with. Is that how you heard it? It is MÄR, but even if there are restrictions, figuring out how to work within them is exactly where a commercial artist can show their skill, right? It is not as if they had some severe restriction like the “Attack No. 1” theme, where they tell you, “Repeat the title in the chorus.” lol

I want to eat cake with Yurippe.

>>665 That is it!! It is almost certainly an arpeggiator. Thank you!! There is a similar sound in “His Voyage” lately. I like that too. I see~ But I have no idea how to operate one ...

Is the background on the official site Trafalgar Square in London?

It is starting to feel like they have gone too far. The worst part is that he even wrote on his blog that he really likes them. Now they cannot get out of it.

I want to eat a cake with Mochi in it.

638: Track No.774, 2006/12/25 16:21:01 ttp://blog.livedoor.jp/mietang/ GARNET fans are so stupid. lol Just because they dislike the anime tie-in the band got, they posted their own thread full of slander on the original creator's blog. (^^) Do they think that will make the tie-in disappear? www 640: Track No.774, 2006/12/25 21:06:21 Even without the anime tie-in, this is not some particularly amazing group, yet they keep saying things like “MÄR ruined their worldview.” lol Why not realize the group itself has no ability? www Stupid GARNET fans, desperately insulting the original creator. www 641: Track No.774, 2006/12/25 21:08:43 That is such a simplistic way of thinking. There are way too many screws loose in your head. lol It is not as if the original creator makes the decision alone. That is what the posts said. They are not wrong. Though a few people replying are idiots who have gone a bit off track too. (^^)

If they had the guts to post that kind of thing directly here, they would be impressive. But if they only do it little by little in another thread, it is nothing more than MÄR otaku barking from a distance.

Mochi seems to use a Telecaster a lot lately, but was he playing one at the live too?

>>709 But that was copied from a VS thread with another band. I do not think it was necessarily written by that band's fans. >>710 I am curious about that too. Was it not a Nocaster? It is still a Telecaster, though.

Mr. Anzai devotee Really, lol, you keep using that phrase.

People stirring things up in other threads = haters or blind believers. In this situation, it has to be one of those two. What a low level ...

I still do not really understand the situation in the lyrics of “Yume Mita Ato de” ... Is it about a couple who used to date, but the other person gradually grew cold? I am stuck on the line “but you are still far away.” Did they not love each other before? I could understand it better if it said “but now you are far away.”

Maybe they are childhood friends or something, rather than people who used to be in love? And although they would not lose their current relationship if they did not ask for more, they cannot help wanting more.

Nana herself said she writes lyrics by putting down whatever comes to mind, so perhaps there is no real narrative coherence from the start.

>>713 So that means you are a blind believer too.

>>715 But does it not say, “On lonely nights, what I remember is not the person I loved, but the days when I was loved” ...? Ah, I just figured it out while writing. “Being loved” does not refer to “you,” but to the people I have dated up to now. I remember those days when I was loved, and that is why I want to become that way with “you” too. The mystery is solved. Thanks.

>>704 Why does saying it is an arpeggiator solve the question? lol It only generates a musical phrase; the sound playing it could be guitar, piano, electronic sounds, or anything else, so it cannot possibly answer your original question ...

>>715's explanation makes sense to me too, but could this actually be a song about homosexuality ...? Especially from the part about “like a dream ... smiling while lost.”

Talk about lyrics in the Nana thread. By the way, Yurippe's outfit on the Christmas card ... She looks like someone who would be in Inugami Circus-dan.

If lyrics go in the Nana thread, and Yurippe goes in the Yurippe appreciation thread, there will be nothing left to talk about here. Besides, this is a Gane thread, and you are saying not to talk about lyrics?

No, once people start talking about lyrics, it never ends. “What does this part mean?” “Is this interpretation right?” and so on. Personally, I find it irritating when people arbitrarily try to settle on an interpretation of the lyrics. The Nana thread is pretty quiet too, so I would appreciate it if people talked there.

Yurippe, I am going to sleep now. Come into my dream.

>>724 What is this, The Outer Zone?

What is the theme or inspiration behind the lyrics of “Marionette~”?

>>719 Still, I have not really listened carefully to that “Koyoi ...” song either, so take it as you will. An amateur can understand it as an effect inserted from a synthesizer or something like that. (^^) An arpeggiator is built into a synthesizer in the first place. (^^) It is used to make use of various effects in the sound, right? That level of understanding is enough. (^^)

>>726 The Nutcracker. Nana came into my dream last night too. The old guy came too, by the way.

Sorry. I did not know there was a Nana thread. It is not even in the template, so I could not help feeling put off when I was suddenly told not to discuss it here ... I am sorry for arbitrarily posting an interpretation. Forget it.

Shut up, amateur.

Who is the amateur, exactly?

As a person, >>730 is more of an amateur.

There is not much Gane stuff on YouTube. If you have anything, upload it.

Today, the Christmas card finally arrived. Will a New Year's card come too?

Even if everyone knows the Nana thread is quiet and directs people there, they will not get an answer in the end ...

>>734 Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.

By the way, I will take Yurippe, and you can have the rest.

Then I will take Mochi's butthole ... Aah!

The post reproduces the lyrics of “Stand by Me.” (Lyrics omitted.)

The post reproduces the lyrics of another song, with imagery of a city at night, a summer festival, moonlight, and a “sky castle.” (Lyrics omitted.)

The first time I saw this thread, I thought all the perverted posts like “Yurippe is so cute” or “I want to do X with Yurippe” were jokes. Lately I have realized they are not jokes; people are serious when they post them. Still, I do not think Yurippe is so beautiful or cute that she deserves that level of obsession.

Good work, amateur.

But that is what makes it good.

Honestly, comments like “I want to do X to Yurippe” are disgusting. It feels like the kind of person who talks to a poster before bed and says, “Yurippe, today is [such-and-such].” ↑ I feel like someone will reply, “You are talking about yourself.” lol

>>741 The sound of the name “Yurippe” is cute. (^^) But honestly, I do not think she really has the vibe of a “Yurippe.” (^^) It feels totally incongruous. (^^) Personally, I think Kiibou's woman is cuter. (^^)

>>744 If someone really did that, they would be a total gross otaku. www By the way, I always thought those comments were jokes. Are they serious?

I thought they were jokes too. lol

More importantly, the supplements in Ribon, a girls' manga magazine for elementary- and middle-school students, have gotten pretty extreme. http://sneg4vip.com/ameloda/1167/113416.jpg http://up2.viploader.net/pic/src/viploader381161.jpg

Japan is doomed. ＼(^o^)／

It is a joke, right? lol

Mochi watched M-1 too, huh?

I hate those know-it-all DQNs who talk like they are so important.

Still, I say good night to Yurippe every day.

Gane is at the top of the introduction on Wikipedia's Portal:Music.

>>745 My intuition says ... could you be Anzai!!?

http://ja.wikipedia.org/wiki/%E5%88%A9%E7%94%A8%E8%80%85:ZERO This is amazing ...

>>741 She is not quite at celebrity level, but among ordinary people she is probably near the top.

>>757 I read the discussion page. That is disgusting.

>>757 By the way, what is the point of filling Wikipedia with your own subjective opinions ...?

Sorry to change the subject, but are there not too many people on the Gane Amazon page who cannot accept negative opinions? Especially on THE TWILIGHT VALLEY. Most of the reviews are quite reasonable and get to the point, but if there is even a little criticism, people mark them “not helpful.” Are Gane fans really that blindly devoted ...? For another band I like, the votes are split about half and half ...

>>761 Is the “other band I like” L'Arc-en-Ciel? Since they are otaku, they ignore negative opinions. It is the “everything is wonderful” kind of fan worship.

>>762 No, no, not L'Arc or anything. lol I started using Amazon to buy CDs by that other band, so when I looked at Gane's page, honestly, I was shocked. It is almost like an idol's page.

>>758 That is not true. Even the top tier among ordinary people is far beyond celebrities. The pool of people is just too different. At most, she would be top-tier among voice actors or female martial artists, right?

Celebrities are selected from ordinary people, after all. There are exceptions, but that is basically how it works. Celebrity > Yurippe >> an uncrossable wall >>> ordinary people

Looks do not matter at all.

For me, it is celebrities ≥ Yurippe.

>>761 I do not know about Amazon, but I am a follower of the Yurippe religion.

>>761 I do not really read Amazon reviews, so I am not sure. Is it not asking, “Was this helpful in deciding whether to buy it?” Though perhaps fans who already bought it use it to criticize other people.

>>761 You can tell by looking here. Including me, most Gane otaku here are idiots on the same level as L'Arc and BUMP fans. There are plenty of blindly devoted ones too. Even if people generalize that Gane fans are annoying, blind fools, we cannot really complain ... lol

[ASCII art of a person punching the poster who wrote the obnoxious reply]

Is this another shallow “You are all too blindly devoted” turn in the discussion?

People who do not properly look at others—or do not even want to look—then label them blindly devoted. This is not about whether they can see or not. Enough with that self-righteous attitude that excludes yourself from the criticism.

Warm for December.

On a night like this, I went out on a whim.

Next up is the “Everyone should die” opportunity!

“Everyone should die” 777.

>>758 That is not true. Even from a fan's perspective, Yurippe is at most the fifth-cute girl in her class.

test

>>775 We fell asleep in the car, holding hands the whole time.

Until the morning sun woke the two of them.

The post quotes a short passage from “Kono Te wo Nobaseba” about reaching out to someone while not wanting to taint them.

>>781 It was like heaven.

>>783 And then they never woke up again.

Even if more than a thousand gross otaku lined up ...

I recently got into GARNET CROW. Please tell me some songs that are absolute must-listens!!! If I had to say, I prefer Latin-tinged songs like “Bokura dake no Mirai” and “Yume Hanabi.”

>>786 If you like Latin-flavored songs, just buy the latest album.

>>761 I think Amazon reviews are about the same everywhere. Unless a work is especially terrible ... like the Mobile Suit Gundam SEED DESTINY DVD series.

Plum.

>>786 For GARNET CROW, it is enough to listen to a song called “Kimi no Omoiegaita Yume Atsumeru HEAVEN.”

That crappy “MÄR Heaven” really is a great song. They even had Mr. Okamoto sing it at the live instead of Yurippe.

I recommend Aiko Kitahara.

Got it.

“TANGO,” “grand blue,” and “Fuyu Urara” should do it.

What was that thing in >>774–775?

Lady Aiko is for looking at. Put bluntly, nothing but her looks matters.

“in little time”

Thanks!

>>796 She has musicality that is no less than Gane's!

Is Aiko Kitahara not basically like a mannequin? Why not have her handle the cover photos and lip-sync at live shows for U-ka Saegusa in db? Then Mr. X would not have to keep pestering her every time.

I love Aichin the most.

A tragic story about an affair exposed by a wife sending an email to the wrong person ... What an utterly hopeless story ... ttp://moemoe.homeip.net/view.php/5419

The person themself did good work.

[ASCII art of a many-armed figure] “You cannot play unless you have lots of hands like Kannon~”

There are way too few people. That killed me.

This time of year means ozenzai. Pour AZUKI over freshly made mochi and it is ready. ★

When people poop, they fart really loudly. Does Yurippe fart loudly when she poops too?

But the mochi is too stale to eat~

That old “Nakamuraya” MC about stale red-bean mochi was incredibly lame ...

It is rare to have an MC that makes the fans worry about them.

I imagined Nana farting and then blushing, and now I am fucking hard. Go die.

Nana looks like someone who farts.

Does Yurippe not love oyster hot pot? Oysters are cheap this year, so she must be happy. I hope she brings us good songs and good singing next year too.

Then I will enjoy Yurippe's abalone.

I like Yurippe in “Dai-Buster.”

Sky PerfecTV was showing them back-to-back ... I want to see Yurippe.

It was not on.

>>816 Which channel is showing what?

>>818 I think Fuji TV 739 or something is showing Dai-Buster.

Maybe Yurippe will take up diving next year under AZUKI-san's influence. I wonder if she has already started snowboarding.

Is Dai-Buster some program that introduces GARNET CROW music videos?

>>821 I thought it was an anime with a character named Yurippe.

Dai-Buster exists for the sake of Ginga Banjo.

>>812 Even if Nana farted, she would probably just be like, “Oh, I farted. Oh well.”

Forgot to sage.

Did Yurippe really travel with Azuki? Maybe she actually went with her boyfriend?

Those two are involved with each other anyway, so there is not much to say.

I do not know about Yurippe, but Azuki's side seems to be true ...

Apparently they did go to Shodoshima, though. lol

The mystery of “Does a CD get lighter as it has more tracks?” Dai-Buster, deploy!

Is Ms. Azuki from the same generation as the kids in “Papa Mama Bye-Bye”?

Next year, Yurippe and Miho Komatsu will form a small-breasted duo.

>>832 Miho Komatsu is a 3D model made by Hiroto Furui in Shade, so they can make her look however they want.

>>833 I knew it. People have questioned whether she really exists for ages ...

So it really is RGB ...

Miho Komatsu is a person Hiroto Furui created in the first place ... Without Hiroto Furui, she would not exist in this world.

I heard she was modeled after his deceased younger sister.

>>832 I hear Shiori Takei will join too.

[ASCII art]

>>837 Apparently his sister's death involved various troubling circumstances, so Hiroto Furui supposedly absolutely does not want Komatsu, who looks exactly like his sister, to appear in the media. Rumors say he has always given the company various reasons and strongly refused to let her appear, saying things like, “It would ruin the mysterious atmosphere,” or “It might disappoint the fans.”

>>840 In the lyrics of “Nazo,” “I cannot forget the dancing lights I gazed at” refers to the soul of his younger sister, who died in an accident. Originally, Hiroto Furui's younger sister was supposed to be the vocalist of GARNET. Yuri Nakamura was her sister's close friend. They added “CROW,” meaning raven, so that her soul could fly anywhere. “Holy Ground” is about Hiroto Furui despairing of life because of his sister's death.

(；∀；) What a touching story.

Can we catch anyone today??

In the end, it still feels like Yurippe and Okamoto will get married.

Actually, maybe there was nothing especially troubling about his sister's death. If Komatsu, who looks exactly like her, appeared on TV or sang, he might project the sister who was originally supposed to debut as GARNET onto her, and find the memories too painful. Maybe he made up the story that “there were various problems with his sister's death, and he does not want Komatsu, who looks just like her, appearing on TV.”

All right, that is enough.

Come to think of it, my biology teacher in high school looked exactly like Yurippe. She was around twenty-five or twenty-six too.

That teacher would be fifty now ...

I am currently in high school, and my English teacher looks a little like Yurippe. Her voice is low too, and in every way she reminds me of Yurippe.

On the journey~ you~ always~ have rhinitis♪

>>849 Let me suck it.

>>851 You want me to suck it? Go suck yourself, asshole!

Does it have a dick?

(;´Д｀) huff huff

>>852 Quit acting tough and hurry up and suck it.

Everyone, remember the Yurippe who was cute back then.

Why are you using the past tense?

But it is true that she is not really “cute” anymore.

The post quotes a short lyric passage about the warmth of memories, being alone, and taking a detour home.

Arakawa's voice sounds a lot like Yurippe.

Let's fill this thread within two days.

I was shocked to see a New Year's card from someone named “Yuri Nakamura” in a calligraphy textbook.

Good work, Garnet.

>>844 Come to think of it, you fans would not accept anyone but Mochi as a potential husband for Yurippe, would you?

Mochi is the least acceptable one.

>>863 Please just speak Japanese.

Was the first Nana project ignored??

Take the poetry discussion somewhere else.

The Nana project was so lame, it killed me. lol What was that vibe, like some junk project from a fan site?

I am looking forward to the Nana project! I will definitely win and get to meet Ms. Nana!

Sha-na-na-na-na, shut-in, shut-in.

Thanks for the hard work, Axel.

I am a woman, but I dreamed that I was holding hands with Yurippe and Ms. Nana. It was as if I had become a member of GARNET CROW. Someone suddenly handed me sheet music and explained a lot of technical stuff, and when I said, “This is hard,” the old guy yelled at me. lol Mochi did not appear even once.

Thanks for your hard work, Mochi.

[ASCII art] “That is discrimination~”

Does everyone in the photo on the official site look weird except Nana? www The old guy's face is so gloomy, Yuri looks like her face has become gaunt, and Mochi's hair is unbelievably strange. wwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww

Yurippe pooped out undigested corn kernels. And they all lived happily ever after.

http://www.music272.tv/program/hills/index.html There are way too few songs~~~~~~ Perform every song!!!

Which period of Yurippe do you like best? Mine are ... 1st: Yurippe at the First Live 2nd: Yurippe at the Kobe University school festival live 3rd: Yurippe in the “Koisuru Koto Shika Dekinai Mitai ni” music video 4th: Yurippe in the “Bokura dake no Mirai” music video 5th: Yurippe at the Premium Live That is my list. Oh no ... lately I can think only about Yurippe. wwwww

So cold ...

The year is almost over. Going from “Rai Rai Ya” to “Yume Hanabi” to “Eden” really gave me an 'A` ugh feeling ... I even think they could have released only “Maboroshi” this year.

That is just your personal taste, though ...

No, “Maboroshi” really saved me.

“Rai Rai Ya,” “Yume Hanabi,” and “Eden” were experimental songs made just for fun. It is no surprise if you do not like them. Yeah. For me, they are three of their worst songs.

“Push me down into pleasure~” “Eden” is the best, right? I have been listening to it most of this winter.

So many amateurs here.

>>885 That line is exquisite. I do not care for the rest.

Shimeji 888.

I made a personal best-of, and the sequence “Rai・Rai・Ya” → “Yume Hanabi” → “Bokura dake” → “MÄR Heaven” → “Eden” is absolutely divine.

Still, I am more curious why you went out of your way to change your ID.

This year's buzzwords: “God” “Squid jerky” “Oh no”

Those became buzzwords naturally because that is all you ever say.

This year, “Mother Earth,” “Rai Rai Ya,” “Déjà vu,” and “Holy Ground” were good too~

I am a mobile user. Can someone tell me the details of the Nana project?

But I refuse.

>>894 A lesbian video of Yurippe, born in July, and Nana will be released.

>>894 They are asking, “What is your favorite line from the lyrics?”

>>897 sounds real, but I will keep >>896 in mind too, just in case.

This year they will milk the keyword “7” for all it is worth.

900 (*⌒▽⌒*)v

Do you not think the “Secret Arrange Version” of “Natsu no Maboroshi” on the album is better than the single version? After hearing the album version, it instantly became my number-one favorite GARNET CROW song.

I definitely prefer the single version.

I really miss the days when the official site posted a New Year's card from all four members ... (staring into the distance) Thank you for another wonderful album like the fifth this year. Please take care of us next year too! >>879 Add the “Timeless Sleep” music video too.

The post quotes a short passage from “Kimi no Omoiegaita Yume Atsumeru HEAVEN,” including a repeated English refrain. (Lyrics omitted.)

Did even one GC song make the year-end top 100?

To Yurippe, Thank you for everything this year. Please take care of me next year too.

>>904 What kind of “Jumpin' Jack Boy” is that?

>>907 The Rolling Stones are here——— (ﾟ∀ﾟ) ———!!!

>>907 WANDS are here━━━━(ﾟ∀ﾟ)━━━━!!

>>901 That is basically the version they perform live too.

Why was the lyricist category at the Japan Record Awards given to Miyuki Nakajima instead of Azuki!?

I think this is still much better than letting the artists who are popular lately win. lol

Metallica's “The Unforgiven” and the intro to “Sky” are exactly alike.

It has been an eventful year. I happened to see the Premium Live on GyaO. I became interested in Gane. 　　　　　　　　　　　↓ I started browsing YouTube. I fell for Yurippe. 　　　　　　　　　　　↓ I started collecting every song. I got all the DVDs too.

This year's singles got criticized quite a bit, but listening to them, I personally thought they were pretty good. That was my general impression. The B-sides still had lots of good songs, as usual. Honestly, I wish they had tried a little harder with the album. It felt a bit lacking ... But that is just my personal opinion; some people think it is a masterpiece, and that is fine. It simply was not to my taste this time. lol Overall, quite a few songs this year only reached the level of “not bad,” which was a little disappointing. I have some complaints, but in the end I think it was a very full year. Good work this year, and please take care of us next year too.

>>914 That “eventful period” was awfully short.

This year was another Gane year.

Could they stream that GyaO broadcast one more time? After seeing the live, I want to watch it again ... Actually, just release it on DVD exactly as it was ...

>>909 WANDS really brings back memories~ (^^) I listened to them back when Uesugi was still there too. (^^) Even if they revived with Uesugi as the vocalist now, I would have no desire to listen. (^^) He is in such a sorry state now. (^^) I see no value in that tacky, fat Uesugi's fake alternative/grunge solo work. (^^)

Yeah. That pop-rock sound, keeping a delicate balance between sales and the music they wanted to make, was perfectly suited to its era.

Looking back on this year, Gane probably made up more than 90% of the music I listened to ...

Looking back at this year, if there had not been a live ... if the show had been bad ... I might have stopped being a fan by now ... (；ﾟдﾟ)

People here cannot stop being fans, can they? (^^) As long as the female members' faces remain appealing, that is what you care about in the end, right? (^^)

It was a steady, dependable year. I hope they release some soothing songs next year.

For me, this was my first year as a Gane fan. I bought all the CDs and DVDs, joined the fan club, and went to my first live. I want to hear lots of good songs next year too, and I want to go to another live.

I want to fill this thread before the year ends.

Here, have some oranges~ [ASCII art of a person offering a cart full of oranges]

Here you go. (:;~)

I was watching Kohaku and forgot about Okamoto's radio program ...

Here you go. (:;~)(:;~) Was Mochi's radio program on today too?

Apparently it was.

My “Marginal Man” did not make the top ten.

Sorry, did anyone listen to the radio? Please tell me the first half of “Garnet's Favorite Songs Ranking 2006.” 1. Haru Matsu Hana no You ni 2. Kakurenbo 3. Maboroshi 4. Rusty Rail 5. Hare-dokei

Having to do a radio show at the end of the year ... Mr. Mochi has it rough too.

I got 950 without much fanfare.

If Gane were on Kohaku, I would probably watch while getting really excited. They would keep cutting to them as supporters and such, so I would not be able to take my eyes off the screen.

Also: WEEKEND Yume Hanabi Himawari Eden I do not remember the rankings, sorry.

>>952 Thanks~ I really appreciate it. Not a single B-side, huh?

“His Voyage” and “over blow” did not make it either. That is surprising. What shocked me most was that “Rai Rai Ya” did not make it.

Next thread: GARNET CROW part.165 http://music5.2ch.net/test/read.cgi/musicjg/1167574888/

>>948 I do not quite understand the purpose of this ranking. Was Mochi ranking GARNET songs released in 2006?

“Haru Matsu Hana no You ni” is beyond words. At this time of year, it makes me feel like crying when I listen to it.

It is a popularity ranking of GARNET songs released in 2006. I think they started accepting votes around two weeks ago. Looking at it this way, there really were a lot of songs released this year. Maybe the votes were spread out.

Mochi's marriage announcement is here━━━━(ﾟ∀ﾟ)━━━━!!

I usually just lurk on my phone, but I came out to say Happy New Year.

Happy New Year. Everyone in GARNET, and all of you guys too, please take care of me this year.

You grubby otaku! Please take care of me this year too.

Another year has ended in which I found an artist besides B'z I could be a fan of. Thank you, GARNET CROW. When I watched Music Station Super Live in 2002, I mistook them for Kick the Can Crew and thought, “What kind of fujoshi band is this, with all that strumming?” lol I am so moved that I still have the videotape I recorded back then! lol

http://www.haoting.com/musiclist/ht_76552d2c4cf6eb88.htm This site does not play anymore. It is so annoying.

I am looking forward to their activities this year too!!

I had not checked the homepage in a while, but Mr. Okamoto has gotten fat. His neck looks a little scary.

>>906 I am curious what exactly you have been receiving so much care for.

>>981 They mean they have been receiving all kinds of attention in that department.

Where?

Happy New Year. Please take care of me this year too. Next thread: GARNET CROW part.165 http://music5.2ch.net/test/read.cgi/musicjg/1167574888/

Happy New Year. This is the seventh anniversary year. I plan to actively promote the Nana project too.

>>982 You mean they received care in the lower-body department. So, a masturbation aid? You mean they masturbated to Yurippe?

Poor Yurippe. Surely it was not that kind of thing. lol It was probably musical support. Maybe.

This is a great fishing pond for people on winter break. www

I like the keyboard sound at the end of “Anywhere” that Hiroto Furui seems to play, that “dededdededdedededdeded” sound.

I like Nana-sama's keyboard in “wish.” It has a mysterious feeling.
