【Keisuke Comment】

I am sorry I’ve suddenly announced for a while.
Regarding withdrawal, it was offered at the time of the one-man in January of this year, from the result of half a year from the formation / start, the future perspective, and the motivation of ourselves, “Let me separate a year in this year I talked about such contents as.
I think that it was around one man in June that it was decided concretely.
Originally insisting on the visual genre genre is thin, as there are not too many ideas like ‘I would like to do this in costumes’ or ‘I would like to show like this in makeup’, so the band to aim for this genre I also thought that it would not be suitable for me, and I decided because my own motivation was difficult to keep.
Continuing to do bands is difficult if you do not keep figures as it is in reality, and if that stagnates it will still be involved in motivation.
Especially in my case, I tended to place emphasis on the numerical part for the band, but I can not just give out ideas like a new breakthrough but only act on the idea of ​​other members was.
Even when members around me think that it is difficult at the present time even when talking like “Do you want to do these events next year!”, You can not approve of it like “I think that’s good!” It was.
Because of these things, it is not suitable for the band that aims for above as mentioned above.
There is no disagreement among the members, and SchwarzKain in the dressing room and so on is about too noisy (laugh)
I’m sorry for everyone who is supporting you, I am sorry for being suddenly announced, but because I am in the band industry for so long, if I can finish my decision with my own decisions properly and regret not being left behind I think.
I am thankful that I had prepared a big event called One Man as the final stage.
… and so I thought that these feelings and ideas could only be conveyed here, so I wrote it for a long time.
I decided in myself in January, and I do not have any negative feelings anymore.
Because there is a section I’m thinking like “Virtue not putting out my negative emotional things on the table,” live and twitter and others were always feeling normal, but around January this year I have a dull quarter Because it was (laugh)
It will not die on December 18th as it is now and I will not stop playing the guitar.
It is only Schwarzkain that it belongs to the band that works constantly and it is the last one.
Other members are firmly positive, and this time SchwarzKain itself will not go away.
Since it is unavoidable because it is unavoidable because it is unavoidable, I basically dislike spirit so I am entertaining to the maximum as usual as usual until December 18th and I am going to have fun too, so please do so as much as you can Thank you ^ ^
