Another deal of translation if you don't mind ^^ Can you explain meaning of vinushka? I hear Kaoru said it has russian origins (don't know where it came from o.o) but some say it's from hindi.

 It’s true, the word “Vinuska” has Russian origins, it didn’t come from Hindi, Kaoru said this in his interview to VerdamMnis Magazine back in 2008, prooflink: http://www.verdammnis.com/interviews.php?id=25  

Let me explain this in detail, it’s gonna be a bit long, but spread the word for better understanding :)  Of course, I can’t be 100% sure that this is exactly what they wanted to portray through this title, I will try to give an extended etymological meaning together with my personal perspective. The original word is “ВИНА” (rus: vinа́) which means “fault / guilt”. We never actually use “vinushka” in modern Russian, it’s a very old form that comes from folklore. The diminutive suffix “-shka” makes the word sound more endearing, gentle and loving, kinda like suffixes “-chen” or “-lein” in German. But (!), in traditional Russian folklore, words with diminutive suffixes like “vinushka” may also have a very special tone of deep but silent sorrow, sadness, despair and, most important, accepting the fact that it happened. And that refers to “vinushka” as well. It’s not just fault or guilt, it’s fault that you will have to live with for the rest of your life. It’s hard to explain, it’s a very strange conflict of feelings, you kinda treat this sensation with love and caress although it hurts you so much, because now it’s inseparable part of you and, no matter what you do, it will never leave you alone, so you accept your pain, you love it and call it a dear name “vinushka”, and you keep living your life, there’s nothing else you can do. And it really reminds me of Kaoru’s tattoo “Despair of the Fault”, you know, makes it really close to “vinushka” to me. If that makes any sense to you…

Do you love yourself?

No matter what you look like, no matter what your heart is, please love! Please love yourself!"

During the special Die Mobile event, several interesting questions were asked to Die, and his answers left the attendees very excited.

One of the best questions of the day was:

-Will there be any chance to see Die from DECAYS?

He answered:

"There are no plans for now, but I do have something in mind. Maybe soon, in 2025."

He also left a hopeful message:

"Keep December 20th free every year. I think something will always happen on that date."

- Will you participate in national festivals like LUNA FEST or Loud Park?

While thinking it over with a "hmm," he said:

"We have attended every LUNA FEST so far, and where there are two, there might be a third. "

Although the answer was a bit vague, it gave the strong impression that they will likely participate. He also recalled that their first participation was in 2015 and the second in 2018, emphasizing that it does not happen every year. Everyone was impressed by how precisely he remembered the years.

- When do you read the letters?

"During tours, I try to read them at the venue as soon as I can, or during travel, making sure not to miss any. By the way, Shinya reads them immediately after the concert. He is incredibly fast. While we are still soaking in the post-show atmosphere, he is already reading. He is really quick, right? As long as he reflects on his mistakes first, it is fine for him to read them, haha."
