“Just previously, Visual-kei had been in a sort of boom phase, and I really hated it. I disliked being put into that. Visual-kei isn’t a trend; it has been there for a long time already. I didn’t want it to be a boom. Therefore we did things not to be put togther with that. And as we did something that isn’t meant to be a boom and yet becomes one anyway, we had to get out of this forcefully.” — Ruki, the GazettE
