Guardian fandom friending meme!!!

[china_shop]

Our lovely fandom continues to grow beyond our wildest expectations! Comm membership has just hit 100 98 (and we got impatient)! *shameless champagne and ballooooons*

A few small notes and reminders:

1. The Welcome/Intro post and the Fannish Resources post are still alive and kicking. Feel free to drop in at any time and say hi, or give us all your resource links (even the ones that might seem really obvious)!


2. Lurking is also totally fine, of course! *waves to lurkers*


3. Please tag your posts to the comm so other users can easily find what they’re looking for. In particular, it would be great if you could use the canon: drama and/or canon: novel tags, since it’s not always obvious to us mods which should apply, including for fanart or vids that use drama visuals but draw on novel elements. This is our current list of tags, and we’ll add more type tags as the need arises.


4. You can find the full (updated) comm rules on the profile page.


5. Feel free to promote sid_guardian on your journal or elsewhere. (Here's a graphic and text.)

And now, without further ado...

Since some of us are new to Dreamwidth, and some of us are new to Guardian, it seems like a good time for a Dreamwidth friending meme. Come and meet new people! (Re)Populate your DW circle!

To participate, just copy the text below, paste it into a new comment and tell us about yourself. (All information is optional.) Then read through other people's comments and say hi / follow them as desired.

KAT-TUN had decided to beat NEWS and is now down to 3 people. It was very traumatizing. >.< But they are back and seem to have found a new groove!

[firestar]

WHAT?? WHO THE FUCK IS LEFT, HOLY SHIT. O_O

[frameofmind6]

Kame, Ueda, and Nakamaru. ^__^

[firestar]

Well, at least that trio can make it work. XD

[frameofmind6]

It's surprisingly true! (But hey, knowing Kamenashi, he wouldn't settle for less... : )

[firestar]

This is true. I was never really into Kat-tun - no shade, their style just wasn't my thing - but even I know Kame is a perfectionist workaholic that wouldn't settle for less.

[frameofmind6]

Lol -- accurate. ^^ And it's fair, their style is...unique. ^__^

[firestar]

Oh, definitely. XD

[jo_lasalle]

Kamenashi, Ueda and Nakamaru are left.

Koki was fired in 2013. They discussed disbandment, but had a revival con late in 2013. Taguchi announced he was leaving in late 2015. They discussed disbandment, and had a maybe-goodbye concert in 2016, and a return concert in 2018.

It's been an interesting couple of years. >_>

[firestar]

I remember hearing Koki got fired, I think that's the last I heard. O_O

Hah, interesting. >.> I remember how nerve-wracking it was when Ryo and Yamapi left NEWS and no-one knew if the group could continue. I would not wish that on anyone.

Giri giri de itsumo ikite itai kara... : )
