    I hope he gets better soon! He’s got my favorite visual in all of JRock!! But, does this mean the album will be pushed back?

  2. katie says:

    ShanethVarosa> Unfortunately there wasn’t any news about that, so I can’t tell you one way or the other. If he recovers soon, then I’m sure it’ll be fine, but if it’s prolonged then it might end up getting pushed back =/ I hope he recovers soon, too!

    Katie> Please, keep me updated on this story. It’s one of the few JRock illnesses I’ll end up finding myself care about aside from UnsraW. Although I have heard that Kamijo updated his blog or something and it doesnt look good. but i am wishing him a very speedy recovery.

  14. Eos says:

    ShanethVarosa> I just did a quick run through of their blogs. Aside from Teru doing a copy/paste of the announcement from their OHP, I haven’t seen further details about this. Here’s to hoping though that nothing bad is going on and that Jasmine returns.
