U.S. Tour cancelled!

[Aiko Valentine]

It wasn't his fault though, all hate should go to Batsu or NOFU or whoever he is today Mana himself probably lost money reserving venues and such, and plane tickets for the band and staff. This is what happens with a scam artist, people lose money, and everyone gets hurt.

 

[Illaparatzo-sama]

Big disappointment for me. The concert on the 2nd was a big factor in my deciding to go ahead and go to AX this year, and now I'm not going to have anything to do there for three days.
At least Mana won't be competing with Hard Gay and Fujii Takashi for my time now. I can go see them freely ._____.

 

[nekoi]

I'm not surprised. XD

 

[BloodBlack]

I knew this wasn't going to happen.
When I read about it happening initially,
I didn't even flinch. I didn't even bother telling anyone about it. I knew it wasn't going to happen.

 

[lady_toast]

I'm not surprised, but I feel sorry for those who have paid for their tickets, transportation, etc. etc... that must really suck.

Don't worry, there's a thing called karma. XD

Everyone in batsu is furious... the kill-Kevin thread has now reached 20+ pages... XD it just shows how angry everyone is. O_o

 

[mija]

A Kevin hate thread...LOL nice~!!! >D

 

[Wandering_Fox]

A Kevin hate thread...LOL nice~!!! >D

It seems to have gone quite off topic o_O How a "I hate Batsu" thread turned into a discussion on Mana X Gackt yaoi... Did everyone just bounce back? It's not even a Batsu Hate thread anymore...

 

[mija]

what the...~_~;;; how strange....how did it turn into that???
the people over at that forum are odd folk ^^;;;;;;;

 

[Mistoline]

This so sweet of Mana. I mean, I was expecting something like that from him, maybe, but don't his words make you feel better? It makes him feel even a tad closer to the fans

I think everyone who got disappointed by batsu shares the pain with Mana.

 

[Edgey]

Wow I'm actually glad I was saving up for the TO date of family values and unable to book tickets for this one. X_x

Sucks for all the people who ordered tickets and booked travel for this. Hopefully you guys can get most of your money back in the least most painful way.

 

[Miwu]

I just read this. It is a shame that people who were waiting for Moi Dix Mois to come have to be dissapointed.
I feel bad for Mana and the other members too.

Stuff likely to have to leave:
PlaJapan, Mon+amour International, The Lakewood Theater, Grove of Anaheim, Ticketmaster, Official M10M US, Midi:Nette, Malice Mizer, Mana-sama, Moi dix Mois, Schwarz Stein

Stuff that's part of Nofuture, anyway:

=4

I don't know about you, but I have suspicions that Nofuture has... no future.

No future now has to delete half of what is on there.

I think it's more likely the whole site will just go down, just like the ill-fated batsu-ent.com.

 

[twizttid13]

Wow this sucks they aren't coming to the US. But at the same time i'm glad batsu/no future isn't organizing it. Hopefully they do come to the US in the future. Probably by then i'll be able to go.

 

[flowersofnight]

By the way, has anyone who ordered through plajapan.com gotten a refund? That's the Batsu in-house store run by Warp Forge himself, so I'm curious if anyone's gotten him to cough up the cash

 

[Miz]

Well, it IS called No Future. Oh wait. N(degrees sign)FUTURE.

I'm glad Mana's not working with batsu. They're kinda weird. Doesn't that forum get flushed every few days?

Anyway, what in the world is Warp Forge. It sounds like a funny inside joke I'm missing out on. Like all of Hora's diary or something.

 

[flowersofnight]

Anyway, what in the world is Warp Forge.

That's the name the Batsu guy originally registered his websites under
He had an email address boasting about his hacking skills too

 

[rin]

And now people are having random outbursts at LJ, too. In one community someone posted an angry rant about 'don't be mean to NO.FUTURE it's not all his fault'... Though the rant was completely unprovoked, seeing how the only other thing anyone has said about this whole cancelled tour at that community, has been someone who posted that letter from Mana... (same one that appeared on here). I mean wow, some people... >_>;;

 

[Kyuketsuki]

You mean someone still likes that guy??? No way! They must not have read anything that's been happening.

However, I had a big feeling that mana would be crushed by this, and already sent him an email last night. I might do it again today if I think about it. I'm guessing he feels really guilty right now, so he might need some encouragement from us, right?

 

[Miz]

Oh! So that's how Mana got hax0red!!

Someone hacked his lipstick.
