Well, it's true that the site is in "slow motion" now but you're part of this boy; of course, it's up to you to leave if you don't feel good enough here.
It's true too that something is missing to reactivate the action on this board but... what would that be???...

When there's news, it gets posted.
Move isn't like Hollywood actors, they seem to stay low key.

You know what bothers me and not only with m.o.v.e but with almost all japanese bands and singers?
Simple, that they don't even worry about their fans out of japan or asia since both their websites and blogs always are in Japanese language and the little that exists in English scarcely serves. That punishes that they don't realize the important thing that is for us to have the option to know of the first source in which situation they are and that we have to look as madmen something of for a little information.
It's like that we don't exist and that's really sad.

But I'm sure that, with most Japanese artists groups, the foreigners are in the minority. It's probably just easier to stick with a Japanese audience and having their sites in Japanese, etc.
Oh, and welcome to the board. ^_^

I would love love love to translate all their blog posts, and magazine articles, and news posts, and everything. Fact of the matter is that I'm one person, I'm in my final semester of school, and I don't have that kind of time. I do what I can, but nergh... I feel terrible about it. But there's nothing I can do about it. My good professor's gone, and my Japanese is sorely lacking. I'm also swamped with coursework.
So I can't help but feel both responsible for the lack of news and at the same time, I feel kind of offended. But whatever.
Pedro, I think a lot of it has to do with the fact that, at least in America (can't speak for other countries), there's basically NO market for Japanese music. I don't think I've ever seen a Japanese CD being sold outside of anime conventions around where I live. If there's no market, why advertise, you know? I see where you're coming from, but looking at it from that perspective, it makes a bit more sense, I think.

I agree. There is no market here in the US for Japanese music. I've only ever seen Japanese cds at conventions, as you said, and even then, they're usually anime or game related. Unless you come across an Initial D soundtrack, I doubt you'd find move cds in the states, not much anyway. I'm sure there are some stores that do sell Asian stuff, but it's probably a rarity to find it.

And I agree with both of you my friends and I'm conscious well of the problem that means to live in a country of America in what to Japanese music refers, but even if we are not many fans... we still exist and each one of us tries to support to the japanese bands that we like.
It's sad, I learned english language because I wanted to know more about others cultures and many more things but sometimes it seems that it's not enough.
And I cannot leave without saying that I estimate very much the time that you give yourself to translate information about m.o.v.e for our delight and I'm grateful for you because of it, Mystical Sand. And there is no problem if you are busy, in the end also you have your private life and that's the most important thing.
By the way, it's the first time that happens to me buying in Cdjapan, but for one month I'm waiting for my Humanizer's copy and still it doesn't go out from the customs to my house, the waiting time is already killing me. Buaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah...
