This whole business of propping up performers with guitars they don't seriously use, has been taken way too far with Tokyo Jihen. It was already bad enough with Shiina Ringo, but then they had to put a guitar in Hata's hands in Bon Voyage, and now HZM, too.
This is totally lame. I'd rather watch HZM make electric guitar-like noises from his keyboard for songs which actually rock, than watch him pose with a real guitar he of all people doesn't need to know how to play, for a song which would probably still suck even if he had audibly contributed toward it in some way.
