Kawamura Kazuma for ELLE girl has me gasping for air

I've only listened one song from Vivarush before, but it was good enough to subscribe to their Youtube channel. It's been a while, but damn I really like their new song!! This live was awesome too! Apparently it's used for anime-opening, which is really great, I love when smaller bands get a little bit of spotlight.

Anyway, a little shout out to our little visual kei-community ❤️

[nipsutin91]

No matter how many years pass, I'll always love Rampage and LDH as a whole. I always come back ❤️ Big respect for the company and all the artists who work so hard.

I always appreciate the live singing, they sound amazing.

Messages from the GazettE to the fans (Google translations)

〈 RUKI 〉

At the end, he said, "I want the GazettE to be forever." I think what he meant by "forever" was that he hoped that the amazing scenes he saw from the stage in 2023 would continue forever.

The scenes he saw with his fans, the happy faces of his fans, and the scenes where we all sang together were treasures that could not be replaced by anything else, and I think he hoped that moment would continue forever.

I remember him saying that he wanted to perform live soon.

Even now that he's grown up, he was a kind and passionate man who can honestly say, "Even if something bad happens, it's the most fun when we get together like this and laugh with the band members."

I loved that honesty.

This year was no different, and every year on our birthdays we would jokingly tell each other to take care of our health.

The band will never be a four-man band.

No matter what anyone says.

Because you're the only bassist we have.

Because I believe that my soul is always beside me to the right.

I'm sure everyone can feel it, even if they can't see it.

The proof that Reita has built up in the GazettE so far will not disappear and will definitely live on.

I believe that, so I will continue to sing beside him so that his soul can be right beside me.

I will not become the GazettE that Reita hates.

I don't want to make him sad.

Although all humans live in a finite life, I believe that souls never disappear.

Reita's soul, the members, myself, and the fans.

I want to continue to perform live shows that make all the people who loved me want to come back to the stage forever, even after they have become souls.

So it is only with each and every one of our fans that we can create the scenery that we hoped he would be eternal.

That's why I want him to stay by my side and be there, unchanged from now on.

He should look at me and smile, and think, "He was the best guy!", rather than looking at me with a sad face.

We are more determined than ever to protect this band.

We will make Reita's wish for eternity come true.

So, Reita, rest assured that you can come to every live show from heaven.

Your seat will always be there.

You're going to be super busy from now on.

I'll contact you again when the schedule is decided.

<Uruha>

To all the fans who have supported REITA up until now.

I think he was a huge support for everyone, and for me.

I myself have not been able to accept and realize the fact that he is no longer here and that we can no longer stand on stage together.

There may be many things that I will come to understand little by little from now on.

However, if I continue to be drowning in sadness, I will not be able to make his wish for eternity come true, and I strongly feel that now is the time for me to have the strength to look forward and move forward.

I also think that the path we walked together until now was irreplaceable for him, and I think it will continue to live in the hearts of everyone and myself.

He gave us so much, and we walked together for so long, and he is still and will always be our best friend.

Please treasure all the words, memories, and love he left behind in your heart.

REITA will continue to exist and live in everyone's hearts.

We would like to express our sincere gratitude to everyone who has supported and cheered on the GazettE REITA.

〈 Aoi 〉

For a long time, the members and a small staff have been working on various projects, saying "this and that," but writing this letter was the last thing I wanted to do.

There have been moments when I felt like giving up on my dreams.

Every time, we talked about it again and again, sometimes pushing each other, and pulling the members' arms so that they wouldn't give up.

Because we were such a band, the GazettE has been able to keep moving forward without stopping.

REITA, you're not the one who wishes for eternity, you're the one who connects eternity.

I can't say something clever like "I'll take care of you."

I wanted to make more music with you, and see more scenery together.

Every scenery is wonderful because we see it with the five of us, surrounded by our fans.

I don't know why, but it's so painful that I can't make it happen even though I have so many things I want to say.

When I get there, I'm going to start with a big lecture. I know it's lonely because we're gone so suddenly, but please take a rest until then.

I have a few more things to do here.

Thank you for walking this long road with me. Rest in peace.

For me, REITA is an immeasurably big presence, saved by his many words and sounds, the mood maker for the band, and all I remember are really fun things, and above all, the sight of him shining on stage.

He is the best partner and the only one in the rhythm section.

That has never changed, and will never change in the future.

I want to continue carrying his feelings and continue with the GazettE with even greater resolve.

Finally, to all the fans and people involved who have supported us for the past 22 years.

Thank you very much.

And from now on, our feelings will remain the same and we would like to continue running as a group of five, so please continue to support us.

REITA

Thank you for all your hard work.

With the same feelings, we will continue to protect the GazettE together with our many friends... I promise.

There are many friends out there who don't want your 22 years to go to waste, and they are waiting for you.

You must come to our shows too!

Let's have some good sake again.

生きた証が消えぬように...

the best i can do is work harder towards my passions and hope that he can feel how much he inspired me and many others. rest in peace, reita 🤍

[nipsutin91]

rest in peace sweet Reita, gone far too early, we will miss you

[nipsutin91]

…. Rest in peace Reita… you left too soon from this world.

I don’t know the reason for this sadness…. Regardless if I know the reason or not, you will be dearly missed. You were one of the most talented, spirited, and iconic Visual Kei/Rock Bassist and musician of an era. Thank you for bringing so much energy into my life since 2010, alongside your bandmates that you called your brothers.

We will always be beside The GazettE and will support them so that your last wish before you left this world will be protected dearly.

Thank you for being a part of The GazettE, for creating powerful music that changed so many generations, and for being part of my life for over 14 years.

Rest well, you worked hard. But most importantly, I hope that you were able to enjoy your 42 years of life with happiness and celebrations.

🕊️🕊️✨

I just read the news about Reita's passing and bursted into tears. I don't really have words right now.. Just that we have lost another amazing human being and we all will miss him dearly.

I really can't believe this.. This hit home hard because I've been a fan of the GazettE since 2007 and I'm sure there are many of us who have been here a long time with them. I've literally been listening to their music a lot lately, and the newest album too, and been thinking "damn this band is still so amazing".. and now one of them is gone.

Anyway, I hope he will be remembered as a talented musician and an amazing human being. I think he has been huge part of making J-rock and visual kei as it is today.

Love you Reita 🤍
