I am! Been here for about two years though I was here for a year five years ago too.



Sadly, the show has a chance of getting cancelled due to corona virus fears already cancelling a ton of other Japanese shows, like Hyde and the Gazette's 20th Anniversary Show, but Reol isn't until early April, so hopefully things will calm down a bit before then.



Also going to Download Fest Japan, but that might actually get cancelled because it's all western bands.

Niiice, which prefecture? I'm moving to Shizuoka later this month and getting pepped up for it

Mmm yeah I feel this; fingers crossed I guess. there's enough hysteria building in the west that some bands might actually be grateful to play in Japan, provided the infection rate falls lol. It's getting silly in the UK; read in the paper that 4/5 people in Scotland might catch it if it spreads enough, or something similarly ridiculous

side-note this now has more votes than Sigma, which is cute but also a bit silly lol

Awesome! Shizuoka is a pleasant place to be. I'm in Saitama, which is just above Tokyo. Honestly, Shizuoka sounds a bit better right now. Things are probably calmer there than here. By normal train, Shizuoka is about 4 hours away from Tokyo, but by bullet train, it's like 40 minutes or something like that.



I think it will slow down soon, but Abe is gonna have to do more than just cancelling schools for a month in order to really contain it. The country could have avoided a greater spread had the doctors who boarded the Diamond Princess actually done their job properly as well as not boot off the only man in the country with the most qualifications regarding containing disease.

The west is panicking more than they should. They're not even nearly as affected as Japan or Korea right now and people are freaking out.



Sorry about the rant. Lol It's nice that more people are starting to pay attention to Reol.

"lmao this album is kind of anxiety inducing"



I suppose I can see that. I actually find it the opposite in that it has a significant impact on raising my mood.

Ha, REOL is a total overload so can definitely see it going down that way. Gets me buzzed too though

Also sweet re. Saitama, must be pretty easy to get around from there (usually)?

"could have avoided a greater spread had the doctors who boarded the Diamond Princess actually done their job properly"

Thought I'd been following this, but missed this - what was the deal?

"what was the deal?"

When the Diamond Princess docked in Yokohama, they were immediately put under quarantine upon docking. They were under quarantine for an embarrassingly short time of two weeks while doctors went on board each day to examine the passengers. The problem is that they didn't take this examination seriously at all. In their minds (and possibly due to a lack of concern for the virus back then by the Japanese Ministry of Health), the doctors equated the effects of corona to a simple case of the flu and were seen multiple times on the infected vessel either casually removing their headgear or without their biohazard suits on at all. They would even touch their lunches without washing their hands casually saying, "Oh yeah, I probably already have Corona. It's nothing to worry about." This was them completely undermining the situation.

Kentarou Iwata is a Japanese doctor who has spent years working in Africa studying and containing the Ebola virus. He has the most experience in containing, studying, and combating foreign diseases in all Japan; probably on a whole different level than domestic doctors. He wanted to participate in helping the quarantine and the doctors there treated him like shit. He saw their irresponsible behavior and they kicked him off the boat after that one day was over. Basically, we would have much less people with Corona here if it wasn't for the doctors in charge of that quarantine.

And to everyone who is only here about the album, I'm really sorry. Lol

His 5 is there in an attempt to get this back up towards an averaged 4.

Mine is here because while this album is a 4.5 at best, I said fuck it.
