What's Happening? - November 12, 2013 7:39 PM
It kind of seems like on online news sites and such my poor health has been mentioned, and I've been getting a lot of e-mails of concern from every direction.
I've been getting a fair amount from my seniors at work, so on the contrary I feel shameful and my stomach seems to have started to hurt.
Well, it's just a little bit, but I'm recovering alright. No need to worry.
Even so, depending on the circumstances, anything can become news now huh? It surprises me.

Translator's note: Truthfully, I actually did send him the CR and ANN articles before I went to bed last night (which was an hour before he posted this). I figured the moment people read those pieces he'd be getting a lot more messages from fans and especially ones from overseas who maybe didn't follow him closely before, so I thought he should know why and check them out so that he'd have some context for all of it. I also explained to him what both outlets were since streaming content in particular on CR is blocked in certain countries like Japan because of contracts and stuff, so I thought it was probably necessary to let him know about the site and what it does outside Japan since he couldn't really check himself. CR in particular is pretty important for him since a lot of the shows he's on, especially lately, stream on the site so he likely has a following there. He probably also found out about Jpn news sites on his own or even looked at ANN's source because the story was getting posted everywhere.
Also, he took everything rather lightheartedly because he was totally fine, but in the next entry you'll see that over the course of the following 3 hours it seems like it erupted into something bigger.
