three strikes and you're out

I should really not be spending my precious break-from-studying hours being annoyed but the brain twitching has been ongoing ever since Junno’s resignation was announced and I figure a little ranting may be cathartic. Let's hope.

"I just hate how fans are blaming other fans for reactions that are completely human. The fans who are feeling angry and betrayed are the ones who believed Junno’s promises, the ones who had unshaken faith in his loyalty. They’re not haters. They’re just hurt."

THIS. This is what I said over and over when I heard the news and saw people 's reaction. Why don't people understand? It's because fans love him too much that they got all angry and feeling betrayed when this thing happened. Not because we are haters, just because we are hurt too much. After everything, a promise was made, he who promised to protect KAT-TUN and Hyphens, now betrayed us and his own promise. Why can't we be angry? We are just human. The part which hurt me the most is when I know that the other threes begged him to stay, for half of year, and still he decided to betrayed both KAT-TUN and us.
I stopped saying anything anymore until I saw your post. Just want to say that you said everything in my mind for a while now, things that I cannnot say out loud cause I'm too tired to see all those reaction calling people who got angry with Junno is fake moral and all.
Thank you for stating the fact and speak out a piece of our broken heart. Still, I can't make myself stop loving KAT-TUN. Even now with 3 members (or soon become 3 members), I still want to see KAT-TUN until the end.

For me, when Jin left KT years ago, I was more relieved and happy because I didn't care much for him to begin with. The anger coming at Junno right now is something that I can completely understand though because I feel it too, and I love Junno. I don't blame him for prioritising himself and I don't expect him to cater to my wishes. That doesn't change the feeling of hurt or betrayal though, because like you said, promises were made. Repeatedly. Most fans didn't figure he could ever bail out so suddenly and that's going to take some time to adjust to. If Junno can leave and still claim to love KT and have his feelings accepted, then I expect others to accept the feelings of fans who are withdrawing from Junno but still wish him all the best.

Even now with 3 members (or soon become 3 members), I still want to see KAT-TUN until the end.
Same; we've made it so far already, might as well see it through to the hopefully-never-happening-end. <3
