If you look at the times on the screenshots and if there’s a scrollbar scrolled up or not I think the actual order of the conversation, as far as we’ve seen, is this:
But I did find the girl’s profile and she has “14y” listed in the blurb.. so if Daiki really did only find out her age at the end of that conversation.. he was very careless. I can’t really see him continuing with the band
OH SHIT. He is F-U-C-K-E-D.
So he got kicked out of Knosis before he got kicked out of Crossfaith? Crossfaith what are you doing?
Aside from everything already being said here (Can’t believe I side with Ronnie, Daiki’s behaviour is unacceptable), I just want to add that I feel realy sorry for the girl.
It must be horrible for a 14 year old girl to see how all this unfolds. Good chance she is blaming herself for the cancelation, the kick off from Knosis, etc. - OF COURSE it’s not her fault, but at this age…
So they did kick him out. Good on Crossfaith. Moving this thread to News now.
Nah finally
I feel sorry for the victim and for Daiki’s wife and child. Daiki is a pos to all of them.
This has been a rough story to follow, I’m glad they removed him but should have done it sooner. They’re pretty much screwed now at least as an international act for a long time with that stigma attached to them. I just hope that it doesn’t carry over with the other Japanese rock/metal bands that are finally getting recognition overseas, they’ll be under a microscope due to this whole mess especially the ones that perform with Crossfaith on the regular, hopefully no one else in that circle is as stupid as Daiki was.
The information to give events full clarity emerged the same day Crossfaith (and Knosis) kicked him out
Friday (June 27th): The mother provided further screenshots to Ronnie who shares them to give context to the end of the conversation (that I assembled above), making it crystal clear it was not innocent
Saturday (June 28th): The mother provided further context to the end of the communication between Daiki and her daughter. Daiki had told Kenta/the band that he realised it was not a good situation and cut off communications with the girl after finding out her age. Instead we find out, at that point the mother told her daughter to block him
This means Daiki lied to the band about what happened
After this new information, you have everything you need to act without it being a witch hunt.. and both bands quickly took action
idk this band but glad they kicked that dude out. creeps that prey on underage children deserve to be underground 
People might say this and that about Ronnie but no one can deny that he has one hell of a sense to make catchy badass music. Enjoying “zombified”, followed by “bad at life” and “popular monster” right now. Amazing melodic music and some of the best released in recent years imo
Regarding the creep great they got him. Not to defend anything but many adults are not updated with the laws in Japan, and especially not the older men. It is actually pretty recently that Japan raised the age of consent to 16, from 13… It was 13 for like forever, pretty crazy stuff. Well it doesn’t matter both 13 and 16 are too young, and at last they are not in Japan. So daiki “enjoy” all the trouble waiting for you.
Ah! Finally someone who agrees with me on Ronnie’s talent. Ronnie Radke is a complex person but a genius composer. “Popular Monster”, “Ronald”, “Zombified”, “Watch the World Burn” among other things testify to his talent.
Thanks for the whole info you added. And putting the screenshots in the right order (I only added them in the row as Ronnie had posted them)
it’s actually very easy to deny this
just…look at it
I will always take a Prequel as an opening to an album (which it is) as opposed to typical SEs that visual kei guys always do 
wth is Ronnie’s instagram gone or is instagram having issues? I wonder if Kenta added him back?
Personally, i only see an effective PV with a false air of “Dune” and a perfect intro for their last album “Popular Monster”.
Ronnie is getting banned frequently from Instagram.
No surprise there.
And for the music talk, maybe some of you want to move over into the general metal thread
Just a suggestion though
