Remember when they were three tiny girls and an old Bucho?
Now they are three young women and an old Bucho!
In these 3 short years, they have released 5 singles (And 3 Ramen CD’s), and are about to release their new single within days (Plus a new Ramen CD).
They have released 2 albums.
They have played 3 ONEMAN LIVE’s, and are about to play their 4th ONEMAN within the next few days.
Our “little rabbits” grew up so fast!
From the humble beginnings with “Idol Star Wars”:
To their declaration of war on the idol world with “7 Principles”:
To their turning point in sound with “Usagi no Kimochi”:
To their more refined, beefed up production sound in “Usagi Stream 2″:
And even to their current activities with “Anger”:
The Rabbits have simply evolved and grown over time... And we’ve all been there with them every step of the way~
So, thank you Emi “The voice”, Yuzu “The leader”, Karin “The comic relief”, Bucho “The mascot character”, G-angel Records and all the many staff members, friends and fans that have made the last 3 years possible!
No matter what happens in the future, DEATHRABBITS will live on forever!

Bucho is being fired?! I don’t think so... And here’s why!
So, I was supposed to finish this post around a week ago. I’m sorry I didn’t.
But, sometimes extra time can give us more of a look into things, rather than flying off the handle right away and panicking.
First, let's start with the whole "being fired" thing... On September 1st, the following message was posted on the DEATHRABBITS website:
Even right now when accessing deathrabbits.com, the above image still pops up on screen. Luckily, fellow admin and fan @mastos758 on twitter translated the above for us, which I have taken the liberty of slightly fixing up (good teamwork as always, ne?):
“An Apology
I am deeply grateful to you fans for supporting us.
Sorry for making this announcement so abruptly, but DEATHRABBITS are finding it hard to continue our activities into the next year.
I, Bucho Kanzaki, will be dismissed for spending too much money by making Ramen CD, and the distribution of the free black Ramen. That decision made a huge economical impact for the company.
it is not the fault or business of Emi, Yuzu and Karin. but as we are a partners in this Band, our performance at Ebisu Liquidroom on 13 Nov. will be "DEATHRABBITS Last live w".
Regardless, we will perform at our very best for our remaining activities in this year!
Please support for us, as always!
Thank you,
DEATHRABBITS Bucho AKA Akira Kanzaki”
Wow! The above is quite shocking, right?!
Well, I thought so, too, at first... But not now! We;re going to have to go back to July 2016...
I remembered something. In a recent entry that you can see by clicking -Here-, I mentioned a mysterious blog entry that went missing. Luckily, I was able to trace a copy for myself, and I can share it with you all today. The entry is dated 2016.07.20, and I have provided a transcript/translation:
"アイドルを続けるのは、とても大変である
(To continue the Idol group is very very difficult)
いや、続けるのはどんな事でも大変だ。
(It does not seem possible to continue
大変と言えば、ラーメンだ。
(Speaking of Ramen...)
そう。
(Ah, yes...)
ラーメン。
(Ramen...)
思い返せば、そもそも、「ラーメン」が、破滅への始まりだったのかもしれない・・・。
(In retrospect, from the beginning... perhaps "Ramen" was the beginning of the end...
うううう。
(Ahhhh....)
いままで応援してくれ皆様。
(Everyone who cheered for us up until now,)
本当にスイマセン。
(I'm so so sorry. Please forgive me.)
また、
(Also...)
ゆず
(Emi...)
えみ
(Yuzu...)
かりん
(Karin...)
本当にゴメンね。
(I'm so, SO sorry...)
う
(Ah...)
ううううううううう
(Ahhhhhhhhh...)"
As I said before, this was mysteriously deleted not long after being posted. Why it was deleted is anyone’s guess. I personally think it was to get people to start talking about the whole thing. Keep in mind, this was posted just a day before “The last live w” was announced... it got people talking, for sure.
The next day (07.21), Yuzu made an entry that you can read -Here-, where she explicitly said that she had no idea that the title of the next ONEMAN would be “the last live w”, and she was angry at Bucho, and that she wanted her, Emi and Karin to continue DEATHRABBITS, even without Bucho, once again setting the stage for the announcement in November.
In addition to this, the very next day at their Nagoya LIVE (07.22), Yuzu-Chan made a comment towards the end of the LIVE, where she complained about announcement of 4th ONEMAN, due to its title, but Bucho simply did not respond. (Thanks to @mastos758 on twitter yet again for this information)
On 2016.08.01, Bucho tweeted his shock to hear that Ladybeard had left LADYBABY, and offered to be the “New Ladybeard”, again fitting into the story that he was getting fired:
"Recently, Bucho hasn't been in the office at all!
His Twitter has also stalled in updates. Why?!
In this place, it seem like Bucho is falling apart...
#TheLastLivew"
Once again, this implies that he hadn’t been in the office due to suspension, or other punishment. We later found out on 08.11, that Bucho had simply been on vacation.
Things then went quiet about the whole situation for a little bit, until the following tweet on 08.22, where the DR staff announced there would be an “important announcement”, which we now know is Bucho being “fired”:
3 days after this, on 08.25, the official DEATHRABBITS Twitter account unfollowed everyone but Bucho’s twitter and the twitter of a Japanese comedian that Bucho also follows (Thanks to fellow admin and fan @RabittsuTom on Twitter for the following image) :
It turns out, this was no “mistake”.
According to the following tweet, Bucho "broke into" the account and unfollowed everyone:
Bringing more attention to DEATHRABBITS in the long run.
Right, let’s come back to September 1st. Bucho being “fired/suspended” has been announced, and the following image is posted to the DEATHRABBITS website as their new banner:
As you can see, Bucho is “fading away”, adding more to the “OMG! Bucho is fired! hysteria... but, I’d like to mention the following 2 facts..
1. Bucho was “retiring” on 2015.05.30, and simply didn’t due to a “technicality”.
2. Bucho was also supposed to retire on 2015.11.07, but simply came back as a “new” Bucho, hence his mask.
I hope you’re all following this pattern here. DR Staff like to tease that Bucho will leave on two different occasions now.
On this same day, Bucho once again offered to be part of LADYBABY, once again fitting into the “I have no job” thing:
On 2016.09.02, Emi, Yuzu and Karin made a very frank and honest blog entry, which can be read -Here-, where they thank everyone for their support, and openly said they don’t want DEATHRABBITS to end, and that they would rather have Bucho leave than the group end. This is also the final entry to their blog, as it hasn’t been posted in since then.
On 2016.09.09, a LIVE was announced for the day before “the last live”. The date of this LIVE is set to be 2016.11.12, and will feature 3 other groups, including LADYBABY.
For a company that just said they are facing financial difficulty due to the Ramen fiasco, they sure seem to have enough money to put on a costly LIVE event... of course, Bucho plugged the hole in this, too, by stating he is using “the last of the companies funds haha” in the following tweet:
In conclusion, I personally think this is a publicity stunt. DR and their staff are masters of this, and know how to keep fans on their toes.
One final piece of evidence I have, is that within the next 24 hours, we will get a new song/video from DEATHRABBITS titled “Anger”... again, from a company in financial ruin! haha
DEATHRABBITS To be featured on an upcoming Idol compilation CD!
DEATHRABBITS will be featured on an upcoming idol compilation titled "GAKKYOKUHA: selected by Marty Friedman", to be released on 2016.10.05.
拡散希望☆
名曲だらけ☆楽曲主義のアイドルソングコンピにデスラビッツが参加決定！！
10月5日発売「楽曲派！-GAKKYOKUHA- selected by マーティ・フリードマン」
公式HPhttps://t.co/jaEXOOeACd
— デスラビッツ@サマソニ決定！0820 (@deathrabbits1) July 29, 2016
As per the title, it is an idol compilation CD put together by Marty Friedman. Other artists include つりビット, ベイビーレイズJAPAN, さくら学院 and many more, including a megamix of all the songs for the closing track.
The DEATHRABBITS song to be featured will be "Usagi no Kimochi". Nothing new, sadly, but it's still great exposure for Bucho and the girls!
Thank you to Grifon-1 for letting me know via Twitter~
More info can be found HERE, and we will, of course, keep you all updated!
Of course, this has come as a shock... not just to us fans, but to the DEATHRABBITS Staff, Yuzu, Emi and Karin, too! It seems they all found out around the same time as us, judging by the following tweet last night:
Yuzu wrote a blog entry today, alluding to the fact that her, Emi and Karin had no idea either:
Yuzu says here that she was shocked to find out the title today!
The rest of her entry can be found ~Here~
All advanced tickets (all 90 of them) were sold out within 2 hours... but, regular tickets will be on sale, too! The special tickets enabled a special song to be downloaded later on:
Now, I have no idea if this is serious, or if it's a joke... BUT, I have 1 piece of evidence pointing to a joke, and another oddity...
1. After the words "The Last LIVE" is the letter "w". In Japanese internet slang, w is a short version of "Warau (笑う)", which happens to be the Japanese equivelent of "lol". So, to me, it's a big joke.
2. An oddity another fan (@DSRB_ikitai on Twitter) noticed, was Bucho made a blog entry last night, and then quickly removed it:
Of course, it may have had nothing to do with the situation at hand, but the timing is funny. Keep in mind, this is all speculation, and we won't know anything until they announce it.
We will, of course, keep you updated as always!!!!

~Intro~
Alone here at night at the Office,
with a sigh, I’m thinking of you...
It’s painful, so painful... I’ve never felt this way before
Roulette, Roulette, Roulette, spinning around, please don’t stop!
There’s no time to waste, it’s still not enough!
~Verse 1~
Emi! Hey! Yuzu! Hey! Karin! Hey!
Get ready for battle! Fire a missile at everyone’s hearts! Death!
Bucho! Bucho! Kanzaki Bucho! TALL, stWrong, sKILLed, unMADrried, around40years guy!
I WANT TO EAAAT Oranges for lack of Vitamin C
Come on, "Zombie" that loves the beach! I need love!
~Verse 2~
Emi! Hey! Yuzu! Hey! Karin! Hey!
Begin your attack! Fire a missile at everyone’s hearts! Death!
Bucho! Bucho! Hey, hey Bucho! chARTisma, poor social sKILLs, stWrongappetite, brought up in downtown Tokyo!
Bathing in the Sun due to lack of Vitamin D
Giraffes have such scary long necks!
It feels sooooooo good to Shooooouuut~
I hate the tast of bitter things!
Impulse to DESTROY by Judo, Riot!
~Pre-Chorus~
GO! I can do anything!
OH! Rice Soy sauce Vinegar!
ice Soy sauce Vinegar!
Rice Soy sauce Vinegar!
NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
~Chorus~
Every season that the Cherry Blossom flutters and falls, I am reminded of you...
Even if 10 years or 100 years were to pass, my heart clock won't start again.
I will die from lonliness!
Tears sparkle from my red eyes
I can't take off my black mask...
~Verse 3~
Emi! Hey! Yuzu! Hey! Karin! Hey!
Begin your attack! Fire a missile at everyone’s hearts! Death!
Bucho! Bucho! Kanzaki Bucho! TALL, stWrong, sKILLed, unMADrried, around40years guy!
I need Herring roe for lack of Zinc!
The future is coming...
Takashi is a gloomy, sleepy boy!
Mushroom, Kneaded Mince Meat, Yee-Haw!
Impulse to DESTROY by Judo, Riot!
~Bridge~
At Shibuya’s “Scramble Crossing”, our destinies are passing by one another
I really should have called out to greet you...
Regret, Regret, Regret,
I can’t ever return to bygone days...
If I can never meet you again, then allow me to become reckless...
~Verse 4~
Why is this song so sad?
I just can't understand what it means...
I have no idea what Bucho is thinking!
He made the lyrics too personal!
We want to sing happier songs~
Yeah! Yeah!
It’s really okay to change it?
Won't Bucho get angry?
It's okay, don't worry about it!
Here we go!
~Chorus~
Under the tree of falling, fluttering Cherry Blossom,
Let’s dance and sing! It’s so pleasant!
To the guy I want to become closer to...
High Touch, Blow Kiss, Happy!
We will deliver a “Happy-Forecast” for you, that’s our mission!
Don’t keep us waiting, or you’ll be left behind!
Hurry up, and get a move on~
One more time!
Spin around and round until you’re covered in sweat
To the guy I want to become closer to…
High Touch, Shake Hands, Happy!
Forever and ever, under the tree of falling Cherry Blossom, we’ll enjoy life~
Don’t keep us waiting, or you’ll be left behind!
Fluttering, Fluttering, The Season of First Love!
~Outro~
Emi! Hey! Yuzu! Hey! Karin! Hey!
It’s the last stand! Fire a missile at everyone’s hearts! Death!
Bucho! Bucho! Kanzaki Bucho! TALL, stWrong, sKILLed, unMADrried, around40years guy!
Emi! Hey! Yuzu! Hey! Karin! Hey!
We were victorious! Fire a missile at everyone’s hearts! Death!
Bucho! Bucho! Hey, hey Bucho! chARTisma, poor social sKILLs, stWrongappetite, brought up in downtown Tokyo!
FALL OUT!!
Translation notes:
1. During the verses and outro, you will see strange words such as TALL, stWrong, sKILLed, unMADrried, chARTisma, poor social sKILLs, stWrongappetite.
These aren't spelling mistakes, the original song actually uses a lot of word play. "stWrong" = Strong + Wrong mixed together, and so on.
We decided to keep this in to make the translation a little bit more fun!
2. Parts such as "I WANT TO EAAAT Oranges for lack of Vitamin C", "Bathing in the Sun due to lack of Vitamin D" and "I need Herring roe for lack of Zinc!" are all related to being a Japanese office worker.
Long hours, short breaks and not much chance of getting sunlight, mixed with fatigue.
3. The line "Come on, "Zombie" that loves the beach! I need love!" again relates to being an office worker in Japan.
They are generally overworked to the point that they become "Zombies" The beach part is later referenced in the song "Chuu ni no Natsu", where Bucho talks about not being able to go to the beach due to work.
Bucho is the "Zombie" who "loves the beach".
4. Lines such as "Giraffes have such scary long necks!" and "Mushroom, Kneaded Mince Meat, Yee-Haw!" are complete nonsense and make no sense even in Japanese.
It's just Bucho messing around and filling in the lyrics, we guess.
5. "Impulse to DESTROY by Judo, Riot!" is another line that is nonsense, but happens to almost make sense in English.
The original text says "shoudou zukudou boudou!", so it's literally just play on words that rhyme with one another.
6. The line "Takashi is a gloomy, sleepy boy!" is interesting, as this isn't the only song that "Takashi" is mentioned in.
The single "Usagi no Kimochi/Chuu ni no Natsu" has a "Bucho talk version" as with the rest of their singles, and a character called "Takashi-Kun" is referred to as Bucho's "old classmate".
Basically, it's another one of Bucho's characters just like "DJ Akira". Weather or not he's based on a real person is debatable.
7. The line "We will deliver a “Happy-Forecast” for you, that’s our mission!" is talking as if it is a weather forecast. They will bring you a "forecast" of happiness, rather than rain or sunshine.
8. "High Touch" is literally the same thing as a "High Five" in the west.
9. We have decided to translate the title as "The Season of First Love".
Others have translated it as "The season of falling in love", but due to the age of the girls (at the time of release, especially), and how it talks about "never feeling this way before", and other such lines, it feels like they are singing about a first love.
So, we chose this as the title. Either one works.

You promised you would never cheat on me or stifle me
Isn’t that what you told me?
Why did you betray me?

I can’t control this feeling
I can’t help but want you
Being a single-minded person will only bring you grief
Will this be solved when we become adults?
~Chorus~
So tell me why? Hey, why? Why? Why? But… why?
I don’t know why I want to hold your hand
Why do people laugh? Get mad? Why
Do people cry?
And fall in love??

Why do people love questions? Why do people dance and sing?

~Talk~
Hey, did they tell you?
What?
We are planned to be in a new group. He said it is for a battle...
Oh, what is that?
[Unintelligible] I’d hate to do that ! I will refuse ! I hate him !
Emi will do it if they treat me to a Yakiniku dinner
The lyrics of “Koisuru Kisetsu” are just Bucho singin’ about his miserable past...
The Three of us should request our producer to change chorus part~
Why? Why a Cat? We are Rabbits, OK!? Rabbits, NOT Cats!!!
~Chorus~
Kawaii? Kawaii? Praise me more~
Are you just going to stare at me? How boring.
I am pretending that I have no intention,
as you don’t have courage.
Shoot me down! Thunk! Thunk!
Just for today, you’re allowed to come very close to us!
Please show us, who are still naive,
a more exciting world... Riot Zone !
悪口言ってみたり やきもちやいたり
そんな時間はないの I gotta just go my way
好きだから好きだから みんなが大好きだから
怖くない 突き進め 帰れなくても構わない
we cannot get there alone…
Stringently Controlled
もう見飽きちまったよ Fixed Game
こんな仕組みに誰がしやがった
お前等今直ぐ暴動だ

~Verse 1~
Just an ordinary day
The same stage, as always
‘Till I came to know you
I thought It would always stay the same
~Pre-Chorus~
But, I don’t dare to say it…
Please put your hands to your chest
and feel the future.
~Chorus~
I want to tell you my ~Overflowing Passion~
My true feelings, without concealment.
Like the moon that shines in the night sky
I want you to gently watch over me
To you, the most precious man in the world~
~Verse 2~
I like the smell of winter
It reminds me of memories of those days
I want to talk with everyone
Let’s talk about Love
~Pre-Chorus~
You said you’d come to me immediately?
Remember, we don’t need even words.
All I want is the answer that never changes!
~Chorus~
Let’s walk together after the Snow melts
Singing a Song of hope
I will wipe my tears, and shine!
I want to become tougher!
I want to tell you my ~Overflowing Passion~
My true feelings, without concealment.
Like the moon that shines in the night sky
Please, hold me gently, yes even from far away!
You might go away from here…
To you, the most precious man in the world~
