Sorta off topic- I wonder what’s going to happen to Dexcore? I mean officially there was only 3 members but with Toru gone, it would be hard for them to continue :frowning:

RIP

I can’t read kanji but I knew seeing dates and a specific member mentioned wouldn’t be good news :cry:
He was so young, I hope the rest of the guys have people they can lean on.

Rest in peace, dude what the Fuck

his name is just TO-RU, google is just reading the kanji wrong

Always when it is a sick, for example cancer they write it… so… :pleading_face:
RIP! Thats way too young to go, damn :sob: What a damn year for vk/jrock :sob:
Can’t the year just end already? Fuck…

He was recently active and meeting with a musician acquaintance of mine, so either he was hiding something or it’s something objectively sudden that no one anticipated

WHAT.

Oh, man.. rest in peace.

Why is their agency and band being slandered after his passing? I’ve seen a few band men tweet about it, like that gozenreiji guy. They’re talking about taking legal action if it persists.

I saw this on Reddit. It makes no sense to me. This is not the time.

Hey @zeus, I saw it on Reddit, too. Is there internal strife that we’re unaware of??

I’m working with the same information you have. I find this whole situation equal parts weird and incredibly distasteful.

I think that gozenreiji guy is who they’re talking about. He was claiming that he knew the members of Dexcore, and that their agency was shitty.

Several fans accused him of being an attention seeker/shit disturber. He’s also a lolicon, so there’s that.

Damn, I thought maybe he died from lack of sleep/ lack of eating right/ over working or working when he was having health problems all caused by a crappy label. I mean, labels are known for treating their bands like shit.
