will carry out our scheduled lives as planned,
however, we are still trying to make

Madoka’s Blog
Disbanding Announcement
The blue sky that can be seen through the crack n the moon is slowly fading
With that unexpected announcement
I peered at the part of myself that’s called MadokaI need to depend more
on myself
Because I’m not some kind of weak man
You are my rough stone
and if polished, you’ll glitterI continue to be unable to describe it,
so I’ll leave it up to you.
Testsu’s Blog
Urgent
I’m sorry about surprising you with that unexpected announcement.
Just as it said, UnsraW will be disbanding.
It really was a sudden discussion, and honestly, it hasn’t really sunk in and I haven’t put my thoughts together yet.
It wasn’t that the five of us talked about it, and came to this decision carelessly or without any emotion behind it.
So, until the very last moment, we’ll keep going with all of our power.
Tomorrow in Sendai,
let’s go at it with everything we’ve got so that there are no regrets!
Therefore, we need everyone’s strength!
I really am still processing all of this, so when everything has settled, I’ll write again.
Jin’s Blog
About our announcement to disband
It was an unexpected announcementand I’m sorry that it wasn’t good news.
With things happening so quickly,
it’s only natural that feelings
are still unsettled.
There’s so much that I want to write
that I want to say
and to be honest,
even though there are so many things,
I can’t clear my mind right now.
When things calm down, I’ll write them
So, until then, please wait.
I’m especially sorry to the fans coming to the Sendai and Niiagata performances
that the day before, things have come to this.
I’m sorry.
For now, because tomorrow and the day after will be our last time in Sendai and Niigata, I want to put all my energy into enjoying it.
The four of us will work together and do our best.
Everyone, please lend us your power.
Sho’s Blog
2011/03/04
I’m really sorry for surprising you like this.Even if you ask us, everything has happened so quicky, so I’m not really sure what I should be saying to everyone, however, once everything settles down and I’m able to collect my thoughts, I’ll write again.
From the start of our tour tomorrow, we’ll all be putting forth our full energy, so I hope that you can join us.
Let’s take this test of strength together.

UnsraW Member’s Comments
14
Jan, 2010
A lot of people have asked for translations of the member’s comments on Rai leaving UnsraW, which we posted about back here. These are the comments from the band’s OHP.
Rai’s Comment
I’m sorry for the sudden announcement.
At this time, I have decided to leave UnsraW.
My reason for leaving is that I realized that the direction that I was going in was different from that of the other members.
When you’re in a band together, no matter how close you are, you’re reliable partners who entrust their lives to each other, and so you carry the lives of other people on your shoulders. I thought that you can’t carry on with just the simple feeling of things being fun and comfortable.
From our formation to our activity pause to our revival, if I said that I had no regrets because we all continued and pushed through both the fun times and the tough times, I would be lying. However, this is the result of all of our worries coming out.
Being a member of UnsraW, and being able to play the guitar, are both things that I’m proud of.
I want to put all my effort into enjoying my time left as Rai of UnsraW.
To all of the fans who have been supporting me, to the members, and to everyone connected to the band, I am truly thankful.
Yuuki’s Comment
To all of our fans and those connected to the band, I’m extremely sorry that things have turned out the way they have.
I’m also sorry for the sudden announcement.
I think there’s lots of people who won’t hide the confusion they feel towards this.
However, this is the answer we reached after thinking about it over and over.
I’ve been friends with Rai since before UnsraW started, and we used to say things like, “it’d be great if we could play music together someday, wouldn’t it?”.
When he brought up leaving the band, at first, I was really surprised and I couldn’t believe it. As the band’s leader, I was extremely worried, and above all, before we reached this decision, I think Rai himself was the most troubled.
After this we’ll be walking down different paths, however, as we made this decision as a plus for both parties, please continue both UnsraW and Rai.
We only have a little time left together, so I want us both to cherish it.
From here on, please warmly watch over UnsraW.
Thank you.UnsraW’s Leader, Yuuki
Tetsu’s Comment
To the fans who are always cheering us on, and to everyone who’s connected to the band, I’m sorry for surprising you with this sudden announcement.
As we announced, Rai has decided to leave UnsraW.
Rai is a good friend, who I pushed through numerous hard times with. As we’re both guitarists, we talked about all sorts of things, we shared experiences, and so many other things that I can’t express through words and but I cherish the time we’ve spent together.
The outcome, which is Rai leaving the band, is something that’s really difficult, and it’s not something that I can instantly understand. However, I want to understand that it’s an outcome that focuses on both of our futures.
I want to put all my energy into enjoying these last few lives we have with Rai.
Shou’s Comment
First off, I’m really sorry that we’ve made this type of announcement, which has made everyone confused.
The band talked about how Rai’s course of action is different from that of the band’s, which makes it difficult for him to continue on, and therefore after numerous discussions between all the members, it has been decided that he will be leaving the band.
Rai is an important friend who together with, I’ve sped through UnsraW’s formation up until today, and who I’ve shared fun times, hard times, and all sorts of things with.
We had a lot of chances to work together, and we’ve had a lot of different conversations.
During lives, he looks like he enjoys playing, so just seeing that, I also have fun. He’s that kind of guy.
There are too many things to think back on, and now that he’s leaving the band, I feel really disappointed.
However, this outcome is based on Rai thinking about himself, and even though we’ll be in different directions, I hope that we’ll be able to encourage each other and keep our relationship.
From here on, one by one, we’ll take special care of the lives that we can do together with Rai, so please continue to support us.
