背後の暗闇

I forgot how I got to it, but I spent the last couple of hours reading Ryutaro's twitter and catching up on Plastic Tree...

Ryu-chan fell sick on Dec 21 with a fever, and was diagnosed with the Guillain-Barré syndrome... It was really worrying, but it seems that he's getting much better already... I hope so. I haven't been listening to Plastic Tree very much recently, but they were really an important part of what sustained my youth.

I really liked Ryutaro. I liked the things he wrote - lyrics, prose, observations. And I liked his voice, and I liked their songs. When I was lost in darkness, they made me feel a little better.

Well, I knew they got a new drummer after Bucchi left, but I didn't know anything much because as I said, these days I wasn't listening to them much. But now I think the new drummer is actually really cute! He's called Sato Ken Ken. He reminds me of Miyavi, actually. It seems like he's really sweet too, like how he hugged that little kid who acted as the young Ken Ken in the PV for Mirai Iro, and gave him his drum sticks as a keepsake. And he visited Ryutaro very often when he was hospitalized. And he sends really funny messages to Ryutaro via Twitter. And one of them is this, I just have to put it here (and Ryu-chan's reply too):

ケンちゃん。俺、香港の港で一分間ぐらい背後の暗闇に話しかけてたよ。みんな、居ると思って。 RT @Pla_kenken: @Pla_ryutaro 有村さん聞いてください。友達と買い物してて「コレいいね」って話しかけたら他人だった時、恥ずかしかですね(涙)それじゃ、もう寝っです。

Translation:

Ken Ken: Arimura-san, please listen to this. When one is shopping with a friend, and calls to him "This looks good, doesn't it?", and realizes that it was someone else, it's embarrassing isn't it (::cry::) That's all, I'm going to sleep now.

Ryutaro: Ken-chan. In Hong Kong, at the harbour, I was talking for about a minute to the darkness behind me. Everyone has times like this, I think.



Haha, I think Ryu-chan's reply is super awesome... 'The darkness behind him'. This is why I liked him so much in the past. I still do, perhaps...

Well, this is all I wanted to say, hope Ryu-chan gets much better soon!
