thanks

well they're pretty good even though unfortunately they don't have a distinct music sound like NEWS

still they have some nice songs & no thanks to my younger sister who canjole me to try their stuff out

she watched Vampire Knight & Vampire Knight Guilty , that's how she came across ON / OFF

she doesn't like Kanon Wakeshima whom provided the closing theme songs for both animes though , bummer

Oh, I love this group! They have great voices and my favorite single is Futatsu.
Wish they were bigger though...

yeah Futatsu's ace , be it the vampire version or the album version

I hope they can release something new this year sooner or later :yes

carcar♥ 1st July 2009 01:24 AM

I know! This is a group I am going to support all the way! Once I stop being broke....
Even so, I'll still buy whatever they release! :D

heh bless

I did thought of buying the limited edition of Legend of Twins I : Futago Densetsu which has a DVD & an 80 page hardcover photobook but it's SO expensive @_@

I think I just will stick to getting the normal CD only edition of their album as it's more affordable for me

took me a while to distinguish between Naoya & Kazuya but not anymore

carcar♥ 1st July 2009 01:35 AM

Usually normal is the only thing I get, but it still works! I just have to pay my bills first then I'll order it.

But Kazuya looks slightly chubbier to me? That is how I tell him apart.

true & besides the 4 extra tracks in the limited edition tracklist of their album , I'm OK with not having them around sorta

Kazuya - to me he's the more cuter one xD xD & it helps that he's younger than Naoya too

That's how I look at things too! xD

I think Naoya is cuter! When I first watched the Futatsu video I was like "wow, he's really attractive!" And I like that he is older, even if it may be by a few minutes or seconds. But they both are a little on short side.. I just may not work.

KarenPang 1st July 2009 01:55 AM

according to their official website , Kazuya's shorter than Naoya by 1cm

carcar♥ 1st July 2009 01:58 AM

Even if it's one cm, the one cm attracts to me.

I like these guys. I have the VK singles (in “vampire” versions xD) but haven’t looked them up too much.

I’m surprised their last single didn’t chart. But I haven’t heard it yet, was it bad? Lol

I was going to buy the album but I just can’t afford it. Maybe one day second hand or if there is ever and OS press :yes

Hana Kagari's ace imo :heart . It's sad that it didn't charted because it was only released in 1 edition (unlike Eien no Setsuna which had 2 editions & their VK singles were released in 3 editions) & there weren't any major tie in promo , drama & anime wise

pity as I really like it

The local HMV in my country said that they're selling the CD only edition of the album

I'm going to get it soon , not now because it's S$77 @_@ :dead2

I did thought of buying the CD + DVD with the photobook because it has 4 extra tracks (not so much on the photobook that I really need) but meh it's going for almost S$165+ on YesAsia @_@

I like it!! The concept is pretty good but the twins' expressions annoy me :P It's REALLY unfortunate it didn't chart, I was looking forward to seeing where it would end up on the charts since their previous releases have been pretty good (for a debut group)
