*these are the kind of readings which make you go O.O
*and in accordance to that, you wish you never have read
*these are the kind of stories which make you want to clap your hands on your ears (while you mutter incomprehensible words or say in a repetitive manner "I don't want to hear it")
*this is one topic you'd find hard to forget (I did, and now it's haunting me?)
*and these things (what they accuse him of), we cannot really believe in (not because we're too naive) because none of our favorites spoke about it
*finally, whether we believe it or not, only the boys will know

my personal thoughts about it (imagine they're still not included in this?) will be pm-ed to someone who will pm me about it. haha

p.s. Hikaru (in my user pic) is really stressed about this.

this is almost like a poem...

[riko-narumi.livejournal.com]

LOL! :D

[kate-firefly.livejournal.com]

really, it is! xD
somehow like a sad poem.

[riko-narumi.livejournal.com]

well the article is disturbing. :3

One time when I was looking for Toma info I see somethin about this, but in that article the only thing it said was that they where rumors, I didnt put much attention at the time, but I dont know, now that I am reading this... it is really hard to me to believe that, and many thoughts come to my mind like WHY THEY HAVENT DO ANYTHING! because this happened since 1988 when the books where publish, so does somone knows what happened? if it just rumors or it is true?

[kate-firefly.livejournal.com]

well...most people think that it is true, because there have been a lot of ex-johnnys guys that have accused him of doing this stuff. but no one knows for sure. MAYBE they were just bitter after their careers went nowhere and so they made it up to get back at him. it's not like michael jackson's case, where he was a pretty weird guy with that neverland park and so mostly everyone believed he was guilty...

but even if it isn't true, i still hate him cuz of the stupid JE rules he made and he just seems like a bad guy and he didn't let toma debut with pi. >_

[kavya-kvb.livejournal.com]

yes, i've read about this too before and i thought there could be some truth to it..and after reading this now, i dunno, i feel disgusted, but if such extreme things happened, why aren't the present lot complaining? surely, your dignity should be more important than fame or money right?
that old man, urghhh, i've never really liked him.

[kate-firefly.livejournal.com]

of course if something like that happened to them when they were kids, they're not gonna talk about it. either cuz they don't want it to affect their career or they think no one is going to believe them anyway/kitagawa will try to ruin their life afterwards, etc. something this traumatic is hard to talk about even for ppl that aren't famous, nevermind someone who is famous. most victims just keep it a secret or they're in denial about it or something...

although i still do hope these are all lies, and no one was ever touched inappropriately. @_@

[akemi18.livejournal.com]

I agree with you Kate chan I hope are lies, and I also hate his stupid rules, I think is just stupid to follow those rules>.< .....
anyways I think maybe if its truth maybe they dont want to say most people dont say anything and like in the article said most of th ex jhonny's who said that where ruin for the rest of their life. I dont know but I just hope everyone of later generations aftes the people who said that wherent sexually abuse. It just disgusting >.

[kate-firefly.livejournal.com]

yeah... x_x
all kinds of sexual abuse is terrible, but especially taking advantage of children. that's cruel!

[kavya-kvb.livejournal.com]

hmm yeah, but i thought if they were abused as kids, and when these books by ex-johnny's were coming out, if there was some truth to it then the members too would have atleast spoken to their parents about it.. or maybe the parents would have been worried abt what that creep has been doing and ask the kids..
i hope it's all a lie too, but i also hope johnny gets sacked and we get someone else who knows to make sensible rules. :-/

[kate-firefly.livejournal.com]

well, it seems like most ppl believe he's guilty in the fandoms, but i guess in japan, in general, ppl think he's innocent.

i've heard ppl say that his sister, mary has taken over most of the business, since he's pretty old now. but i'm not sure if she's better or not....

[kavya-kvb.livejournal.com]

so his sister has been making all the recent crappy rules? urghh.

[kate-firefly.livejournal.com]

hmm...i'm not sure. maybe it's just that she hasn't changed the rules that he made? she might not be better, if she keeps everything the same as when he was the boss. =[

[kavya-kvb.livejournal.com]

that is sad.. now i wish both of them get sacked. xD

[kate-firefly.livejournal.com]

i dunno...i guess maybe gradually they'll relax the rules? =/ or i wish toma would leave johnnys to join a better agency, but i guess that's not gonna happen... and all his friends are in johnnys...

[kavya-kvb.livejournal.com]

hmm yeah, if he wanted to quit je, he would have done it a long time ago.
