I can't seem to force myself to say goodbye to you... I'm still in denial that you're gone. Your voice has touched my soul for over a decade & it's hard to let you go. I don't know if I ever truly will... I still can't listen to many Kagrra songs without tears rolling down my face, and you all broke up in March... I miss the whole group, but especially you, Isshi. Your voice & music will forever be embedded into my mind and heart..
Your lyrics were just as beautiful as your voice... I can honestly say that I will always miss you & will always wonder "what if"... What all could you have done had you still been here today.. Or 10 years from now..
You should know that the past decade has been a difficult one.. Your music was one of the few things that could bring me happiness, no matter what kind of mood I was in or what was going on in my life.
You had a song for everything I was feeling & without knowing it, you helped me get through a lot... So thank you for that. When I heard that you had passed away, the thing that continues to run through my head is the same thing that ran through my mind when I found out that Kagrra was breaking up.. That the world will now be an even more sad place, since you are no longer in it. You were a truly beautiful person, Isshi... With a beautiful voice & a tender heart..
You are greatly missed and will forever be remembered. That I can assure you.
There's not many musicians that are able to transcend the language barrier & make you feel every note that is in a song.. But Kagrra did that for me.. Your voice did that for me.. The moment that I heard you sing, I was immediately connected to you. Your voice is powerful, to me (I say "is" because your music still exists, even though you are no longer here)..
You sang with great passion & I could feel your voice resonating in my bones from the very moment you opened your mouth to sing. Your music and your voice were so very different and unique... Very beautiful... To me...
As You always liked to say.... "Death is the beginning of eternity.." Well.. I guess you've begun your journey on the road to eternity.. I suppose now you can take all the time you want and smell every rose you come across along the way... :)

I know I'll see you again someday. Until then, sleep well and rest peacefully. I hope that when you wake up, you will get to sing with the Angels and that the whole world, all that are, all that were and all that will ever be will get to hear you the way that I hear you & see in you what I see in you..
When that happens, there will be no language barriers, and your voice will be able to touch everyone's hearts the way that you've touched mine.. Just like you've always wanted.
I guess that's all I can say... I'll see you later, Isshi.. "When the smoke clears."
Sucks they don't know what the cause was... Kagrra was and still is my favorite vk band they brought a unique style and was one of the first bands I heard adrift from the common Gackt like vocals.. And the bringing of ancient instruments and sounds was nostalgia..
I just got the news last night by chance. It was somehow shocking. I still remember back in 2005 when I started to collect Kagrra's music and loved the folding fans in concerts. I recently could make a folding fan on my own like the ones Isshi used to use. And all of a sudden I read he passed away. So young.
Isshi has blessed me with so many beautiful memories. There has not been a single day in at least the past 7 years I haven't thought of him. He was the sole embodiment of my passion for music and visual kei for as long as Kagrra, has been around and I still cannot believe that he too has fallen victim to this sick string of deaths in the Jmusic world. Not my Isshi.
I haven't completely stopped crying yet. But I promise to myself and to him that one day, I will think of him again and only smile.
"I'm sorry but I can't bring myself to say "rest in peace," he'll never really die as long as someone still remembers him." thats what my friend said when we found out that Isshi died
i didn't even know he was dead till i just watched this, & i thought my day couldn't get any worse :@ My mouse just died about 15mins ago & i came on youtube to listen to some songs and cheer up then i see this, RIP Isshi & Smriti the Mouse ='( & i know a mouse dyeing is not as important but i fuckin loved that mouse more than any person.
I just heard this band today. Before you posted this video, I had no idea who he was. He was brilliantly talented, and was definitely beautiful in every way. May he rest in peace.
It's so sad that all these jrockers are dying. Music is practically my life and I mainly listen to jrock. So when the world loses a jrocker I feel like I lose a little piece of myself as well. RIP Isshi, you will be missed <3<3<3
Kagrra was one of the first J-rock bands I found too, aout 5 years ago I believe. He had one of the most beautiul voices. And about 5 deaths in the J-rock world only this (and last) year!
Zill from Moran, Kazuno from Charlotte, Taiji from X-Japan, Daisuke from Kagerou and now this. It just breaks my heart.
First of all, thank you! You made me listen to Kagrra for the first time in my life, and I cannot understand how I could have missed this wonderful band!
And Isshi must have been sent from heaven, I really love his voice and it makes me so sad that he has gone back to where he came from :( Rest in peace Isshi <3
R.I.P Isshi </3 It's depressing to have lost one of the greatest voices in Jrock. All we can do is pray for his happiness in his next life, or whatever becomes of him. I believe in a heaven, and so I hope he'll be happy there and jam with hide, Taiji, Taku, Jasmine You and everyone else <3
Oh shit... :( Isshi... Oh shit, I want to cry... Jeez. I'm hurt, man. I don't know what else to say... :'( Hide, Isshi... If I were to lose Kyo, I almost feel like I'd lose Jrock. We've lost so many Jrockers that were so important to me... one of the only ones left is Kyo. :(
He was so beautiful and talented. Your video truly expressed the feelings of fans everywhere. Thank you very very much.

Oh my goodness. D': I feel so bad I did not know about this. He is the best singer by far in my opinion, and he will not be forgotten.
He will forever be alive in all of his fans hearts, and his voice will forever be replayed and touch every heart that hears it.
