I hate violence. I hate war. Every time I mention something about our history, I try myself to express that. And not to go backwards, but to go forward. Some people has claimed that the song Hinomaru is an Army song. The answer is, It is not. Never. There are no specific words in the song related to it. This song is not made to attack anyone who is in any kind of posistion or nationality. The song Hinomaru does not express any cheering of war or violence. The lyrics is to cheer and encourage the people living in Japan although we have great earthquakes, a huge tsunami, a big typhoon, and all the other disasters. The song is to unite and to hold our hands tightly as one homeland. I apologize if there were any fans who were hurt from this song. Some of the words were written in traditional Japanese (I do that in many songs) and maybe that was one of the reason made you feel that way. This is my truth. No lies, not even a single lie. I’ll prove that with my actions and my career in the future. Hope you’ll understand. I’ll keep trying my best, to be the positive energy for you and this world. To be the change and to be the piece of “Peace”,always. Love
