Thanks for your input @st1402. Actually my perception about all of this is basically the same as yours. From reading blogs and stuff about Rei, the thing is that, when she was done with gravure and Bratz started getting more recognition, internationally even, her name started to naturally get more Googled/searched for than ever and her past as a junior gravure model was basically "uncovered" by new fans (old bitter fans have to keep in mind that up to a certain point in the past her gravure activities were mostly only known among niche communities like this website) and then she started getting a lot of shit because of it, when all she really wanted was to leave it behind. She started very early and presumably didn't have much of a choice in it, so whatever way she feels about her past is completely understandable, in my opinion.

That definitely factors in as well, I recall a comment in the Nippon manju video saying "I read that she had participated in child pornography", I assume the commenter was possibly American as most of the people I've come across that project to that extreme are American, while gravure in most cases isn't that different from what you'd see in a fashion show or even a clothing catalog, people will interpret it however their culture taught them to in the end, that's one of the worst labels you could put on someone.

REIRIE concept movie:


It will be interesting to hear what music they will
make together now.
The best thing about Ladybaby was always the
relationship between Rei and Rie. They were so
lovely together. But is the fire still there?

So the lesbian couple is officially together now?
They from Anyes of their breakdown talked about their relationship

A user posts a video of them, where you talk to another person and he openly asks "you are a couple ??"

And they giving many terms, they say veiled that if they are a couple

Anyone else receive their "BRATS Crowdfund" goods? I got mine today, and umm yea I like what I got.
Theres a CD, Spiderweb Photobook, Signed Post Card, Shirt, Mini Photobook, and not sure what the white pamphlet is.
I dont want to open it as the actual bag has "BRATS" logo. I also don't want to unfold shirt. (Prolly never wear it)
Anyway Happy New Year Y'all.
