BUMP OF CHICKEN theme song for “ALWAYS San-chome no Yuhi ‘64″
BUMP OF CHICKEN will be providing the theme song for the upcoming film, “ALWAYS San-chome no Yuhi ‘64“.
Titled “Good Luck“, the song was written by request from movie director Yamazaki Takashi. He explained his reason for choosing BUMP OF CHICKEN by stating, “I felt that the melody and lyrics written by Fujiwara-kun exposes the message of the movie from a slightly different angle.” Yamazaki also commented, “When I first heard the song, I felt strongly encouraged. I was quite moved.”
This will be BUMP OF CHICKEN’s second time to provide a theme song for the “ALWAYS San-chome no Yuhi” series. They previously provided their song, “Hana no Na“, for “ALWAYS Zoku San-chome no Yuhi” in 2007.
“ALWAYS Zoku San-chome no Yuhi ‘64″ is based on Saigan Ryohei’s manga that was serialized in the manga magazine, ”Big Comic Original“. Set during the time of the 1964 Tokyo Olympics, the movie portrays a heartwarming story of the rapid economic growth in Japan and the “people of San-chome”.
The cast members include Yoshioka Hidetaka, Tsutsumi Shinichi, Koyuki, Horikita Maki, Motai Masako, Miura Tomokazu, and Yakushimaru Hiroko.
“ALWAYS San-chome no Yuhi ‘64″ is scheduled to be released on January 21st.

X JAPAN Asia tour: Seoul
On October 28th, rock band X JAPAN kicked off their first Asia tour at Seoul’s Olympic Park Gymnastics Stadium.
Standing in front of 10,000 cheering fans, leader YOSHIKI called out, “Sarang hae yo, sarang hae yo! [I love you, I love you!]“, before playing the Korean folk song “Arirang” on his piano. Wearing a pink ‘hanbok‘ [traditional Korean clothes], YOSHIKI expressed, “We’ve dreamed about coming here for a very long time. HIDE and TAIJI also felt the same.”
A concert in Seoul was one of X JAPAN’s dearest wishes. YOSHIKI visited Korea back in September 2008 for promotions, and announced a concert for March 2009. However, the concert was canceled due to troubles with his agency. YOSHIKI commented, “I’ve been waiting for this day for a long, long time. We’ve really been through a lot.”
X JAPAN performed a total of 10 songs including their world debut single, “JADE“, their latest track, “Born To Be Free“, and the timeless ballad, “ENDLESS RAIN“.
A few days before the tour, X JAPAN’s Bejing concerts were canceled by promoters due to technical and production issues. The band was able to push past those difficulties by showing a great start to the tour. Their next stop will be at the Shanghai Grand Stage on October 30th.

GACKT’ “Bunraku” to be released in Japan
It’s been revealed that GACKT’s Hollywood debut movie, “Bunraku“, will be released in Japan on January 14th.
Last year, “Bunraku” was screened at the ‘23rd Tokyo International Film Festival‘. After seeing GACKT’s performance as ‘Uesugi Kenshin’ in the NHK Taiga drama, “Furin Kazan“, director Moshe was eager to get him to star in the movie. GACKT plays the role of ‘Yoshi’, who is the sidekick of the main character (played by Josh Hartnett). Without using a stuntman, GACKT was able to recite his lines in English and engage in action scenes that involved fencing and spear fighting.
The movie takes place in a new world after a global war. Nicola is a powerful man who controls a cruel organization with nine ‘killers’. One night, a mysterious Drifter meets Yoshi at a local bar in town. They end up exchanging fists, but aren’t able to settle the well-matched fight. The bartender sees their strength, and proposes an idea for the them to join forces to overthrow the organization.

X Japan Beijing Tour Cancelled
Bad news for X JAPAN fans in China. The metal band has just canceled their November 2nd performance in Beijing.
The decision was apparently made after last-minute issues with promoters. The band posted the following announcement on their official website:
"It is with great regret that X Japan announces the cancellation of the band s November 2 date in Beijing. Chinese officials had issued a permit and were supportive. The cancellation is due to a last-minute decision by the promoters that included technical and production issues.
The members of X Japan are devastated by not being able to play Beijing."
If possible, the band wants to reschedule their Beijing concert. All other shows of X JAPAN s South East Asian tour will be held as scheduled.
