PIERROT is disbanding

[Hazuki]

I don't know if there are a lot of Pierrot fans here, but I sure am one. They're disbanding, they just posted it recently on the site

Here's the original link to the news;

And I found a translation on LJ.

The reason is because there was never agreement between the members who wanted to focus on their solo activity and the members that wanted to keep PIERROT going with all their heart.
Ending like this is regrettable, and with the feelings and thoughts of those who have loved PIERROT to this point in mind, we discussed many many times with desperation, as if it were for our lives. Until the very end, I argued without giving up. Sometimes it became passionate, sometimes we cried, but we have now exhausted everything with which we can keep PIERROT going.
Even with Aiji and Jun's regained enthusiasm, we couldn't do it.**
I feel it's my fault as the leader of the band that my strength, or lack thereof, was the cause of this.
KOHTA and TAKEO were willing to fight with me to the end for protecting PIERROT. However, more than that we were able to decide this without any harsh or bitter feelings.
As for myself, for the sake of making PIERROT my priority I considered stopping my solo activity, but the two were unable to be persuaded to do the same.
As for us making all you fans worry, I can't find the words to apologize for such a thing coming to be.
There is absolutely no way we could have a member change
KOHTA, TAKEO, and I all believe that it is us five that make PIERROT.
While it is inexcusable that we can not have a final breakup tour, and it's a very regrettable disappointment, but the reality is that in this present state of things even this is impossible with the feeling that they have completely separated from PIERROT.**
To be honest, I feel very uncertain since I don't know if things will be alright from now on.
However, in no way will I be able to stop (this has a regrettable tone to it - like he wants to stop but it's impossible)
After this, with the help of KOHTA and TAKEO, I feel I have no choice but to improve on what we did before. I plan on making new music immediately in this new form with them.
Even if Aiji and Jun make the decision to keep going until PIERROT retires, I feel this is a fair resolution to this. Somehow, please support them too.
I can't possibly believe that these words are going to end it all, but please let them be heard.

Thank you so much, all the PIERROT fans who have given us your love.

I had a feeling this would happen, but I never really thought it would! Kirito had been making new singles lately.

Nyaaah~ TT-TT Best of Luck to them all..

[Coelacanth]

NOOOOO!!!!!!!

[Lumix]

What the O_O oh no.

Guh >____<
NO!
Damn it... That's so unfair.. PIERROT were one of the first j-rock bands I really got into.. =/
*sigh*
Thanks for the info..

[Hazuki]

^ Nyah~ Me too. It was probobly the very first Jrock song/band I ever listened to.

If it wern't for PIERROT I wouldn't have found Meev out xD

edit- as early as I did I mean

[sexysaucestar]

All these bands/groups keep disbanding...T_T This makes me sad.

[tinyppl]

Yeah bands just end up disbanding somehow; it upsetting.

L'Arc~en~ciel is possibly the only band I know that can handle solo work and Larc itself.

[Hazuki]

^ I really hope L'arc will stay together for a long time. Even though if Hyde has been doing some solo stuff and Tetsu did too.

[Ryoko]

Oh no! They're one of my favorite bands!!! Such a shame.

[monsoonbaby]

I felt like crying while reading Kirito's message. He don't want to end it but he have to...this is really depressing! T_T And, is it that they won't have a final concert? I have just started to listen to more PIERROT's song and now it's the end of story...*SIGH*

[JesA]

awww disbandment is so sad....i was so stunned when DAI announced that they were disbanding....

[Hazard]

Oh, I'm gonna cry. ;.; They can't just split up. But, I guess if it's what they feel is best...

[Hazuki]

I think it's the fact that they won't have a last concert/tour that sucks the most =D='
