Is Ukigumo out of Tokyo Jihen?

[golem09]

Damn, where IS the April fools thread?
There must be one! Don't tell me I clicked on "Main Forum" for nothing!

According to this site (above), it's now "Wednesday, April 1 2009, 0:47:38" in Hawaii.
It's "Wednesday, April 1 2009, 11:47:38" in Portugal.
And most important of all it's now "Wednesday, April 1 2009, 19:47:38" in Japan.

What is the day of that newsletter, kuro_neko?
I never meant that you were the one doing the prank, but actually the Kronekodow newsletter.

lots of interesting news. Thanks neko!
I'm so glad there's a bside. That's what I'm looking to the most.

I might as well post it here since there's no other relevant thread-
I found this radio interview with Maboroshi and they talk about Ringo for a while (starts around 07:55). They laugh of a lot so it might be interesting... I have no idea because I don't speak Japanese.

honestly, the second option is the only one that makes any sense. "yeah we did this duet to combat rumors about us fighting" makes a lot more sense than "yeah, we did this duet because we're fighting".

Edit: just wanted to say I HATE APRIL'S FOOLS. Especially now that it starts a few days early and people start getting suspicious about everything around mid March. What a complete waste of time.

even if it's a joke

[Inaudible-Whisper]

Dammit I hate April 1st. Whether this is true or not, there's just doubt in the back of mind mind about everything I read.

If this is an April fools joke, it sucks.

[Orenji]

If this is a joke, I will hate kuro for the rest of my life xD. Especially when here in Spain, your "April Fools" day takes place on December 28th ROFL.

[Ringo~Bingo]

This probably is a joke? if he's out then that's that! he's got Petrolz so my heart is not exactly broken for him, he seemed more comfortable with them anyways.

The main concern is who replaces him!

[fluffiethesock]

I thought I heard that Ukigumo was busy with a Petrolz tour during Expo, so he couldn't even be there to watch. Does anyone else remember hearing that?

I assumed Neko punk'd me something good. Well played, since he still may have. But lets say the letter Neko is talking of is true. What if THATs an april fools joke. That would be even MORE well played and shows how Shiina knows how we feel, and hates us enough to tease us so. =p
