I've always hated extreme ONLY fans (particularly some Koichi-only fans with too much free time on their hands) and I don't think that fact will change anytime soon. I always try not to go against them directly as I understand that being an extreme ONLY fan is your own choice and preference and nothing can be done about it; until these extreme group of people started to invade MY peaceful and happy little world.
THEY ARE HAVING A CAMPAIGN FOR THE PHI CON DVD TO NOT BE RELEASED!
Fangirling over KinKi is only my hobby and they are definitely NOT my life so I don't want to confront those brainless people. It's seriously a waste of time and I usually don't like to be involved with this kind of stuff. However, this method is actually quite simple, quick, and only requires you to send an email to the company. If we can protect KinKi, who have been entertaining us all these times, by doing so, why not?
Japanese Kinki Love fans (Loving both Kinki Kids) have started another campaign:
★Φコン元旦DVD化署名運動★
We are Φ’n 39!! and U? KinKi Kids Live in DOME 07-08の元旦公演のDVD化を要望しませんか?
もちろんノーカットでMC付き、さらにHarmony of Decemberの差し替えなしで要望を出します。
カメラも入っていたので、可能性は十分にあります。
しかし、ノーカットというのは前代未聞なので皆さんのご協力が必要です。
私たちの考えに賛同して頂ける方は以下の方法で1月末までに要望を出して下さい。
I am sure everyone knew about the Kiss that happened on the 1st Jan.
But did everyone know about the fact that there were cameras set up all over the dome and was filming at the same time?
This suggests one thing and one thing only that the Jimusho was prepared to release this concert onto DVD!!!!!!!!!!
BUT…
The “only” fans in Japan is ramping up support to stop this happening!
We cannot disregard what they are doing, because their numbers are huge! AND because their numbers are so *huge* that they have caused havoc to the Oricon website, petitioning NOT TO RELEASE ANY ARTICLES RELATING TO THE CONCERT!!! As a result, Oricon published only the concert details, but edited out *ALL* the backstage features!
See what they are capable of doing????
And now they are petitioning, in their hundreds and thousands, to the Jimusho, NOT to release this DVD AT ALL!!!
The leader to this exercise left half way through the concert because she could not bear to watch anymore! Saw the pictures in Harajuku (shops selling photos) and described what happened on stage on 1st Jan as a scene of *rape*!!
What Tsuyoshi composed for Kochan was cheap, disgraced and obscene.
And the kiss was like Kochan being attack by a great giant octopus!
We, as a KinKi fan, really should do something about this.
Petition has already started in Japan to hit back at what the Only fans are doing.
Therefore, I hereby ask everyone of us to do our little bit, by sending Jimusho an email of support, to show them there is a world of fans out there, WANTING to watch that dvd, not through fancam, but through an OFFICIAL DVD!!
Fans have agreed to gather up support and send emails before the *End of JANUARY* to the following places:
1. J - net
http://www.johnnys-net.jp/j/inquiry/inquiry_main.html Towards the bottom there is [その他のお問い合わせ]
Click there and fill in the form with English / Japanese
2. J-Web (if you live in Japan)
3. Donnamonya
kinki@joqr.net
The details of the email / petition:
a) Name
b) Email
c) What are you inquiring?
Use simple English to express that You want the concert to be released on DVD!
No cut version of the MC, and please don’t replace Harmony of December on 1st Jan with the same song happened on another date of the Tour. Thank you.
Or you can copy and paste the following into the email / petition
We are Φ’n 39!! and U? KinKi Kids Live in DOME 07-08の元旦公演のノーカットMC付き、Harmony of Decemberの差し替えなしDVDの発売。ありがとうございます。
This exercise is NOT aimed at clashing with the only fans.
We want to protect KinKi Kids. We want to protect Tsuyoshi and Koichi.
We all know deep inside us what the only fans are doing is hurting Tsuyoshi and Koichi the most!
To all those who **love them and want to protect them**, please help by sending an email to the Jimusho.
Do what you can! Spread this message out! Paste it to onto your blog, do whatever! Make sure everyone knows about it!
I love KinKi Kids, and I believe you do too!!!
This time, let us protect them.
Thank you.
Please Spread it out as much as possible! We need to unite and support this, or we will have less and less Kinki Kids stuff to see!
I don't know how much of these are true, but if by sending the email I can increase the chance of the DVD release, why not? It's better than doing nothing and picking a fight with them. I'm also not sure how many people actually read my LJ. But every single support you give them does count!
I hope this news won't bother Koichi during his SHOCK performances. How ironic can it be? Those who are hurt the most by ONLY fans are the idols themselves. What a news to see right after I reached back home LOL!
PS: As pointed out by
reverieecho, Koichi's favourite type of sushi is octopus. We heard him saying that a lot during Sushi Ouji promotion period. And those stoopid Koichi-only fans referred to Tsuyoshi as an octopus. Pffttt.. LOLLL KKL IS HARD TO BE EVADED! HOW IRONIC REALLY~
