So what do you think about it then? Personally, this PV has just ensured me that they’re indeed a very promising band.

Secilia Luna’s Kyoki recovering
28
Apr, 2010
![]()
Thanks to Eos for asking us to check this out!
Although they didn’t make a huge announcement about it, on the 21st Kyoki from Secilia Luna got into an accident and was injured and hospitalized.

Kyoki has updated his blog with information about what happened and an explanation as to why he didn’t mention it sooner.
[Report] Kyoki is slowly getting better
I don’t know if it’s slowly or not, but, I’m getting better (´0ノ`*)
I’m sorry for not really being around recently.
First, I’ve gotta apologize, right?
I’m really sorry.
But let me give you a simple explaination to why I haven’t been around.
In the morning of the 21st, I got into an accident and ended up with injuries to my face, head, and body.
At first, I had no idea what had happened,
but then I realized that I was in a wheelchair, in the hospital, with Saki* and some of my close friends
as far as I was told, I had gotten some tests done and such.
It really hurt, and my body felt really strange, but
if you look at the silver lining, the CT (?)* and skull x-rays showed that everything was fine.
So even though it looks like it hurts, there really isn’t any pain.
So I was like, man, I’m invincible aren’t I?, and I calmly got dressed and went to write a bit in my blog…
however,
I then realized that I didn’t want anyone to worry about me, so I couldn’t say anything about the accident.
But then, I kind of started to wonder if my blog post seemed more “normal” than usual.
I was kind anxious about it all, and my head and body still really hurt, so I decided
that I’d take a bit of a break.
Do you get what I’m saying? (Laughs)
In short, I was in a pinch.
I’m sorry. (:_;)
I really wanted some time to think about stuff, but
I didn’t have that kind of time, and now, finally, the swelling and whatnot has gone down,
so I started to think “hey… I’m human… wait no, I wonder if I kinda became an angel”, so I’m writing in my blog.
Maybe, without any mishaps, I’ll go back to being a regular, healthy angel.
Oh yeah, today Secilia Luna is going to be on NET TV, but…
I’m not sure if I can go or not, because I’m not sure if Camaro will be stepping in or not.
Maybe by some chance I’ll be able to be on it.
I don’t know, I want to make a decision about it around noon today.
And, I just recently watched the DVD of the Rutoufuru・Rafuman oneman live that I was in on the 20th. (Laughs)
When I watched it, I thought that I looked really energetic, jumping around like that.
And, I really started thinking that the saying, “staying healthy is the most important thing”, really is true.
When my body is in bad condition, my heart feels the same way.
I’m usually really positive, but I got really negative.
But hey, I’m better now (Laughs)
Because it’s me? You don’t need to worry, okay?
But everyone was really worried about me.
I love you all.
I swear on my heart that while you’re all still alive, nothing will kill me.
I used to think that it’s easy for people to pass away,
but I won’t die as long as you don’t.
I tend to think that my injuries were exaggerated a bit, but
they weren’t. (Laughs)
I’m going to take extra care of my life now.
I also want to take care of each and every one of you.
The members, my friends, my family, I want to take care of all of them.
So that the memory of me will be 100.
It’s a small promise, but I’ll remember it.
It’s a promise that can’t only be said in words, and one that hasn’t been asked for, but someday, I’ll definitely be
able to repay everyone.
At any rate, I’m working hard to make a full recovery.
So, see you (laughs)
* Saki is ex-Cuartet and ActLess TheAteR was in the session band, 「ルトウフル.ラフマン」 (Rutoufuru・Rafuman), with Kyoki on the 20th.
* Kyoki himself wrote the question mark next to CT.
