Hi hi hi! I know I've posted here before...maybe like a billion years ago. xD But I would like your opinion on this question...
How is Hyde viewed in Japan? Or in the Japanese/Asian media? My Japanese friend's sister /hates/ him (please do not send any death threats...I already strung her up by her toenails), and views him as an arrogant, gay whore. (And, no flamming on the gay part, please. We /know/ the truth...xD lol jk)
Like, Angelina Jolie is viewed as a dark, serious, insanely gorgeous, kid/husband plucker and...well, beautiful. (I actually really like her^^)
Does anyone know, or have an idea, how the people and media view him? I was just really curious and wanted to know your thoughts. :)
Thanks for your time! Arigatou gozaimass!

Date: 2008-08-17 07:48 am (UTC)I’ve mentioned several times about laruku to my sensei and yet, she is still clueless about them T_T But when I mention Gackt, X Japan, B’z, Mr.Children, Glay.. she knows or at least heard about them!! Sensei!! @_@ how could u! U_U
But there was my friend who had been studied in Japan for 2 years (recently came back) and I talked a bit about laruku. He replied “they’re soo cool eh!” I’m so proud when he said that (he’s a Gackt fan btw). I asked how famous they’re in Japan. He said many people know them although they don’t listen to their music. He said that jap music scene is dominated by jpop artists and err boy idols (it’s the Johny boys rite? ^^; I know nothing about this johny stuff), but still laruku has a huge fanbase. Huge enough to put them at the highest position in the charts.
Still I couldn’t figure out how my sensei doesn’t know about them U_U (I should show her hyde/laruku pics….last time, she said she gona research them on the net but I know she didn’t or forgot about it). Just by mentioning jrock already makes her startled and amazed of me ^^;;;
I nvr read jap music magazine before, so I don’t know how the jap media view of him in general. But I guess he has a clean, public image regardless of his appearances ^^
