(check out the responses and context before reading this, be careful of sources)
I'm not really into Yoshiatsu's current bands but I do listen to DADAROMA and think his aesthetic is pretty cool. I'm pretty active in the visual kei community and since it's fairly small, I've heard stuff about other bands and bandmen here and there.
I've commonly heard of people saying that Yoshiatsu tends to reach out to fans and be kinda parasocial about it, a lot of times usually happy or joking about it. I think that could be dangerous because there's different situations that can happen, to either the fans or the artist. Idk much about the situation, all I know is that there's allegations and some of the stuff is true and fabricated. Honestly I'm not really gonna read into all of it because I have a fairly busy life and school and it can be upsetting (for me personally) to read a lot of drama and sexually related topics. I'm just here to share my thoughts on the responses they made and see what y'all think as well.
-YOSHIATSU'S RESPONSE-
Genuineness aside (idk guys) I think it was very respectful how he responded, ESPECIALLY how he decided to step back from his career for now to work on himself. He addressed his behavior a lot and I think it was good how he handled it and apologized. He also apologized for disappointing his fans and fellow bandmembers, and breaking their trust. I don't think it's a good idea to be reposting a ton rn but he's a grown man, he can do whatever and people can form opinions off of his current behavior to make decisions for themselves whether or not to support him. I'm glad he's getting help and also being given the chance to rebuild trust in the future.
-Fukuro and DRUGS' RESPONSES-
I am sad that they both disbanded but I understand that given the current situation if that's the best thing they felt was to do, then alr. I hope that the other guys find a new band and do not have tarnished reputations due to working with Yoshiatsu. Their responses were also very respectful and you can definitely tell that they care a lot about their fans. (Fukuro) I feel bad for them, that they worked so hard for 5 years to build up their band just for it to end at such an important time in their career, I pray that they'll find somewhere good for them and for financial stability.
Idk those are my thoughts, feel free to share yours below.
