Wedday will never be stopped for Mako, isn’t it right?! He’ll continue to fight -nod-
but otherwise, this is very terrible ;_; I’m very sad.
WHAT. Aw no! D:
Yeah, Mako keep fighting!
Shintomo> He really is Wedday. After all these many years of keeping it going, I don’t think he will stop fighting to keep it going. With support of his fans I think he can always pull through.
But yes, I’m sad over this too. I had really hoped that those three would stick with him longer, but I really understand their reasons, especially Noa and Hime. I think it’s good for them that they want to continue with school before they decide if they really want to be in a longterm band. Reito on the other hand sounds like he’s retiring so I’m rather sad that I didn’t get to see him perform live.
Samm.> That was my exact reaction when I read it this morning. I had a feeling there was a member leaving, but all three was a bit of a shock.
I honestly would really encourage the fans to drop Mako an email just to say ‘keep fighting and do your best!’. I think he really needs it right now.
Yeah, i was thinking that! An email would be a really good idea!
