Sad news for D=OUT fans. It seems that drummer Minase has decided to leave the band.
Here is his statement from his official Ameblo:
To everyone who loves D=OUT:
At today's performance, I, D=OUT's Minase announced that I am graduating from D=OUT.
And now, once again I have the privilege of formally reporting it here.
I don't know how you will come to terms with and accept this extremely sudden report. Above all to everyone who has supported me, if I caused you any sadness, I am sorry.
When the 7 year anniversary monthly circuit approached, with everyone showing up to all the various lives, there were still so many new experiences to have. I was also looking forward to D=OUT's future so I was hesitant to tell everyone about graduating.
But in this way the truth can be conveyed in a positive attitude.
My reason [for leaving] is due to family circumstances, as it is now, I will definitely not be able to continue with D=OUT.
D=OUT is a precious place where I belong and at the same time, my family is also very precious. Up till now, I've enjoyed doing what I liked. However, the situation is that my family is in need of me to support them and I choose to bear this burden.
I can't compare the two choices because they are both important to me, to everyone who cares about the status of D=OUT, despite this report, up till now, everyone has made sure not to show any negative feelings towards me. Even so, it's still heart-breaking
Those I didn't get to see at the Tokyo live here a while ago, I am sorry for the sudden information.
Even though I definitely have to leave behind my time as a part of D=OUT, right now I will not look back at the past or become overwhelmed with memories.
Still in the time that we have left as 5 person D=OUT, we will give our best until the end!
Despite the sudden announcement, the day of my graduation has not yet been decided.
In addition, I do not know yet when I will have a graduation performance with D=OUT. However, until the time of my graduation, I will continue to entertain everyone with my body and soul as part of D=OUT!
I will still willingly move ahead with everyone in D=OUT!
While there is some degree of sadness, now I will move forward with a smiling face!
From now on, best regards!
