MY FIRST STORY BLOGS
A while back I wrote a post about promoting MY FIRST STORY blogs. As promised, here is the list. It might be small but I definitely think you should check these blogs out if you’re craving more MFS on you dash!

Who knows, maybe the list will grow this year ^^
Hello, I'm a fellow MFS fan from the Philippines, and I want to know how to register in their fan club using debit card. can you tell me how?? thank youu.
OMG I AM SO SORRY FOR MY LATE REPLY!!! Yes, of course. ^_^
Okay, first of all YOU NEED a debit card with a VISA or MASTERCARD logo on it. Mine is BPI Eprepaid. It is a reloadable card but you can’t deposit the money you will put here. HARSH, I know. (TT_TT)/ The cheapest one I know is with Unionbank (It’s only 250PHP, I think?). I actually don’t recommend BPI for this because you have to pay 500PHP (EXPENSIVE!!!) and it is only valid for 2 years! Not fair! >_>)
Because of my former work, the name that was put in my card was my mom. ._.
Okay, so here it is..
1st. So you need to enter your valid E-mail address and password first. You need to check the one with the red mark.
2. After that, go to the inbox of your email and you will receive this. Click the one with the red box and you will be redirected to the storyteller’s page.
3. Click on “My page” and you will be directed here. Click the one with the red box again. :)
4. You will be redirected here after clicking that box. The first one is your name in Romaji. Meaning in Alphabetically. The second name is your name in Katakana. :)
I put my nickname in Katakana, I don’t know if English names work there. :P
So the struggles begin here. You need a Japanese address, postal code and telephone number! Worry not! tenso.com is here to help us. :D Go to there site and sign up. After that, you will be given these.
Put those on their indicated places. I just copy-paste the address on both street and address and it works fine. XD
I clicked anything on the prefecture, btw. XD
5. Click the grayish button on the right side and you will be directed to your page. :P Click the one on red. You will be directed to your info. Scroll down and click the gray button on the right.
6. Just put your card info here. Click the gray button again on the right side and you will be directed to the confirmation page.
The total price is 432YEN (with tax) and just click the gray button again. :D
7. HOORAY YOU ARE NOW A REGISTERED MEMBER!
The payment will come every last day of the month. T_T
BONUSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
Here are some of the photos you will see on their galleries. I actually loved the ALONE BTS!!!!!!!!
------------------------------------------------------------
ps. DON’T MIND MY RIDICULOUS SCRIBBLES!!! Actually, sharing any photos and contents on Storyteller’s is prohibited. T_T Actually, I shared some on my pages and an hour after that, MFS posted on their Twitter that we shouldn’t post!! Even Japanese fans told me not to! T^T
hullo Shelly! how are you. i feel a bit odd actually asking you something (i'm always lurking around, unseen lol) but well with the launching of mfs's storyteller thingy, why did the band members deactivate all of their social medias?? its driving me insane! anyway do you know how much it cost to join or is it that expensive? have a nice day wherever you are
Hello (^^)Thanks for writing in. I wish you a nice day too. Are you one of my silent readers, then? XD That’s ok. Regarding the STORYTELLER matter. 1. It’s a monthly subscription type of membership. It’s 400yen before tax or 432yen with the current tax rate per month.So, in a year, it will amount to a total of 5184yen which is roughlythe price of a ONE OK ROCK DVD. Whether it’s expensive or not, it’srelative to your living standard in your current residing country. So,it’s up to you to decide whether it’s something you want to commit to.The plus side of it being a monthly subscription is you can quitanytime you want without waiting for 1 year. A lot of fanclubs I knowoffer 1-year membership.2. A foreigner can pay ONLY with credit/debit cards. The otherpayment options are for Japanese residents only. I can’t guarantee alldebit cards will work. I have TWO debit cards which are directly linkedto my bank accounts. Both couldn’t get through. But the websiteaccepted my Credit card with no problems. I think the site probablyonly accepts Prepaid Debit Cards, the type you load money to. The typethat pulls money directly out of your bank account may not work.Probably because it involves interbank international money transfer. Itcertainly didn’t work with mine.3. You will need a Japanese address and phone number. TENSO.com offers this service.Feel free to ask questions if you decide to join the fan club (^^)There are a few possible answers to the band’s social media’sdisappearance. Honestly, Sho’s hiatus affect them in more ways thanjust the music.1. The band members need all this time to themselves to concentrateon re-arranging their songs from 2-guitar format to a 1-guitar format.This is a very difficult time for MFS. Teruki needs to re-learn Sho’sguitar parts and re-adjust the music arrangement to ALL songs. To me, the last thingthey need to do right now is to show all this on social media. I hope fans still remembers how OOR members sequestered themselves away from the public when they had to lose Alex.It took them months to resurface as Toru whose guitar playing skillwasn’t at the same level as Alex at the time needed to readjust all theguitar parts. Right now, MFS are going through something similar. Theplus point with MFS is, thanks to his strong foundation in metal music,Teru’s guitar skill is pretty much on par with Sho and there is no suchthing as “Teru is the rhythm guitarist in MFS” because Teru and Shoplay both lead & rhythm guitars. The fact that MFS decided on only2 months is no small feat. OOR took longer.2. They want to encourage fans to join the fan club. Pleasebear in mind, for 2 months straight, MFS are unable to hold a Tour orplay any show till they sort out the guitar music re-arrangement. Teruand Nob are skilful enough to commit to only 2 months beforeresurfacing in March. However, please understand that for these 2months straight, without a show to perform, the band basically has“zero” income. That fanclub membership fee is to help the band membersto survive on. That rehearsal studio isn’t free. Unlike OOR, MFSare totally indie. OOR were under Amuse/A-Sketch who have other artistson their rosters. So, while one artist was unable to generate income,there are other active ones who could. MFS don’t have that “luxury”.3. Could those accounts have been deleted? I am not ruling out thepossibility of the guys totally deleting their accounts because in2015, their INTACT Records labelmates ANOTHER STORY did exactly that.Yes, ANOTHER STORY have been keeping ONLY the official band socialmedia. Honestly, I don’t know why. The members all pulled out fromtheir individual accounts. In fact, KeiGo (AS singer) was the one whowas using “storyteller” as his Twitter handle. With MFS at themoment, it is too early to tell. Deactivating will hide their accounts.IG is like FB. A user can reactivate any time. Twitter however, willonly hold your contents for 30days after deactivating. So, if theirTwitters don’t come back after 1 month, consider them deleted. Thedifference between AS and MFS is KeiGo (AS singer) did give hints thathe was quitting social media. MFS members didn’t and they were stillupdating till the last minutes when they suddenly went poof. Therefore,for the time being, I still assume those accounts had not been deleted.If those accounts don’t resurface in March, then consider them deletedlike their labelmates ANOTHER STORY did.I will always remember this, MFS are not being selfish with what they’re doing right now. They just need to survive.
This post regards to MY FIRST STORY decision to move their updates (of the members) and all in their new member site called "STORYTELLER" just opened yesterday, Japan Time. I am a member and a registered one. As soon as they announced that they will have a member club, I instantly thought that I should prepare myself to the spendings and luckily, the membership fee is quite cheap. :) It's 432YEN and that includes the tax. I thought I should share some updates but Japanese fans (NEVER THOUGHT of it) told me not to. Okay, so as respect to them and MY FIRST STORY, I didn't post any updates on their member club. :P You can register. I failed at first try but got right at the 2nd. :)
Actually, at first... I honestly thought that "WHY WOULD I SPEND SUCH STUPID AMOUNT FOR UPDATES?", "WHY DO THEY HAVE TO DO THOSE?" But soon realized that they're artist, they needed money. They already loss so much money on the illegal downloads of their songs and DVD's plus they're not getting that much money either.. Understand that they spend much money now because they're INDIE not like other bands/artist who are into big companies. And guys, NO ONE ASKED you to register~!! It is YOUR OWN CHOICE if you want to spend money to watch videos, see their blog posts and gallery!! Don't accuse them being a "sell-out" because if you really are a fan and supports them, you will understand why they're doing this.
THE WINKING OWL - OPEN UP MY HEART [ DEBUT SINGLE ]
Promotions!
Tumblr is such a huge place and sometimes it is hard to find blogs with content that will interest you. Therefore I’ve decided to try and compile a list of blogs that post about either MY FIRST STORY or any of the band members.
If you have a blog that posts approximately 50% MY FIRST STORY or about any of the band members then don’t hesitate to like and/or reblog this post and I will definitely check your blog out and maybe add you to the list. Even if you don’t reach the 50% criteria I can still check out your blog. Don’t hesitate!
Wtf Taka.
I already saw the'Bus Invaders’ epidose and the first thing that I hear from Taka is ‘this is my guitarist, my bassist, my drummer’ ’ my bus ’ ‘my new album’ ‘my homepage’ Okay, WHAT THE F*CK IS WRONG WITH YOU TAKA?! First of all is a band, all the members are important as the vocalist, why do u say that are urs when is a band and no ur solo career?! OOR was my favorite band, I went to some of their concerts but since 35xxxv they disappointed me, everyone is changing, everything is changing and now this, he is not the leader, is no his solo career to saying that the people are of him, But nobody says nothing cuz is TAKA, everyone loves him and they don’t say nothing cuz he is ‘perfect’ , now nobody knows who is Toru, Tomoya or Ryota only Taka. If his intention wasn’t to say “my” I understand cuz of the language but I think he knows english very WELL to say that.
Okay y’all need to calm the fuck down. You guys have been hating on him since the very fucking beginning of this album,and nitpicking at him about every fucking thing. We know he’s not the fucking leader. His English is not great to begin with? Who are you to say he knows the language enough to know the connotations of that? In fact, if we break it the fuck down, he said MY BUS, we know it’s not his bus alone and that it belongs to all of them. He doesn’t say ‘our’ which is the logical thing to say if you’re a fucking English speaker but he doesn’t. Which indicates that he just doesn’t fucking know that he can say ‘our’. Which fucking means that he only said ‘my guitarist, my bassist, my drummer’ because that’s all that he fucking knows. He doesn’t fucking study English from a textbook. The only fucking English he knows is from speaking to other people. So basically he’s taking words that other people have spoken to him and using it.
He doesn’t fucking own the band we know that, but you guys fucking act like he destroyed the band when all he wants to fucking do is achieve his fucking goals and dreams. Everything he’s done has been for what he believes is the best for the band. AND JUST BECAUSE YOU THINK THEY WERE BAD DECISIONS DOESN’T MAKE HIM A FUCKING BAD PERSON AND ALLOW YOU TO ATTACK HIM AS A PERSON. It is not like the decisions he made where his alone. That’s not the way it works. I’m pretty sure that he got the consent of the other members before making all the decisions that you guys hate. Nowadays all I see is hatred for this band, or at least mostly Taka. I am starting to get really fucking annoyed with all of you “oorers” who make personal attacks at an artist just because their music isn’t what you wanted.
You guys try to hide behind this whole thing by using Taka as an excuse to hate this band when in actuality you’re just angry because you don’t like the new album. Well too fucking bad.
after meeting taka twice and getting to have conversations both times, i can say that his english is not the best and some of the time you can tell when he doesn’t understand what you’re saying or what he’s trying to say. he does ask questions when he doesn’t understand so, he’s trying. cut him some slack.
and with 35xxv getting so much hate because it’s “not one ok rock” is just fans holding onto the past and in denial that things DO in fact change and that taka is trying to reach a bigger audience to help the band become more popular.
Okay, some FANS OF ONE OK POP need to calm down. You’re basically harassing a person because she wrote an opinion about a band that she once loved but now starting to drift away from the path that they’re taking.
We knows language barrier exist between the interviewer, fans and the band BUT I HEARD him say “WE” on that fucking bus invading shit. SO TO PUT IT ALL DOWN, he KNOWS the word “WE” but still uses “MY” to introduce the band members, their site and the bus that they’re staying in. IF YOU DIDN’T HEAR IT, you must check your ear dear. I don’t fucking care what they do now but seeing all this makes me think (some of) you are bunches of jerks who can’t accept an honest opinion about a band.
And the other 3 band member of OOP are people, not things. They’re alive. Not a fucking tool to be introduced like a fucking tool.
And to be honest, they’re just getting a bunches of new fans who are “riding the mainstream wave” and not their music anymore. Just because their music is safe with the ears of new fans doesn’t mean it has to be the same to the other fans. I hate it, sugarnomnom disliked it.
Saying an honest opinion to the band will make them know their mistakes, if you protect them for these kind of wrong shits, you’re making them look bad to the native speakers and to the ones who understand English.
halo, i'm ii fans of my first story from indonesia. do you know hiroki's hobby? thank you :)
Hi! It’s so nice getting a message like this!Unfortunately I’m not really sure of Hiro’s likes/dislikes/hobbies, etc. I don’t know as much about the members in My First Story as I wish I did. :(
Maybe another follower knows about Hiro’s hobbies? Or please use this to discuss and share your thoughts :)
yah, nice to find your blog too :) cz there not many information abaout MFS, and your blog is good, how you get that information?
I’m mostly following and reblogging other people’s content. Also I try to keep up with MFS’s instagrams, twitter and such. There are so many blogs out there that are really dedicated and want to post about MFS.
Hi! Sorry to bother but can I answer your question? Hiro likes to play guitar, sit and think (he likes being indulged on his thoughts) and pretty much seems like love going to LIVES and hanging out with his friends.
I think I will be on hiatus for a few months. I'll be back in tumblr when my mind is finally settled down and not busy anymore. ┐(;Ծ⌓Ծ;)┌
And guys, why are you following me? σ(´し_｀〃)ゞ
I keep on scratching my head looking at my followers but a huge "THANK YOU" for it. ﾍ(=￣∇￣)ﾉ
Let’s give this project another try. It’s once again time for #MFScreations.
In order for this fandom to grow we need more content circulating. We need more content to post, reblog, like and share. So now I want you to create and dedicate something to the MY FIRST STORY fandom.
You could create literally anything. A gifset, a photo edit, a text post, an audio clip, a video, a fanfic or anything. As long as it is made by yourself.
Tag your creation with #mfscreations (and remember to have the tag amongst your first five tags) and I WILL POST EVERYTHING (as long as it’s not offensive, adult oriented and etc. You know the drill, please behave.)
This project will be going on ‘til the 3rd of January!
If you’ve ever considered posting something of your own or learning to create something then see this as your sign to begin. I want this project to be like a small push for all of you to put your things out there and dare to create.
To all MFS fans. Unleash what’s in you (^^)b
*Honestly though I have no idea which of my posts belong anywhere in “creations”.
His eyes don't lie ~ what Sho means to Hiro
He may not call the man “onii-san" but his eyes will always tell what this man means to him.
It has always been something I would look forward to with every MY FIRST STORY on-camera interview. The way Hiro’s eyes looked at Sho. Even when Sho was not looking at him.
When Sho’s hiatus was announced, all the scenes below rushed to my mind.
When he was looking for the words to say, the one he turned to…….
The one his hand would reach out to………with or without anyone between them.
Sho might be invisible to many but there is one person whose eyes, Sho will never be invisible to.

MFS Highlights & Quotes from VAMPS HALLOWEEN PARTY 2015
Hiro got kissed again……!
MFS had their highlights of 2015 when given the chance to be a guest at VAMPS HALLOWEEN PARTY. They played on the 2nd Day in World Memorial Hall, Kobe and 1st Day in Makuhari Messe, Tokyo.

However, Hiro was also given the chance to be a part of the HALLOWEEN JUNKY ORCHESTRA on the last day in Tokyo. The seniors liked him so much I guess.
Here are my personal picks of their most memorable moments and quotes from the event. Mostly on Hiro though because naturally the vocalist normally gets to represent the band.
Japanese text, photos (unless otherwise stated) & info : Barks.jp
Highlight 1: Hiro who appeared on the 1st Day and the last day of the 3-day Makuhari Messe (party) was dressed as Dracula.
「確か最初は仮装は苦手」と言っていたHiroだ。
“Indeed for the beginning, I’m not good at the fancy costume thing,” - Hiro
* Do you think Hiro’s Dracula effort failed? I couldn’t figure out what he was. He’s too cute to scare me (^^)
Photo credit: Silent Siren Twitter. Edited by me.
Highlight 2:
Hiro was actually forced to appear on the 3rd day at Makuhari Messe.
「僕が最終日に無理矢理HALLOWEEN JUNKY ORCHESTRAへ参加させてもらった という (笑)」 ──Hiro
“I was, you can say, forced to participate in the HALLOWEEN JUNKY ORCHESTRA on the last day (laughs),” ──Hiro
*But looking at Hiro’s smile here, it looks like he was actually very very happy to be forced to appear with the HALLOWEEN JUNKY ORCHESTRA (^^)
Highlight 3:
During the Batsu (Punishment) Game, Hiro got a kiss from anis (MONORAL) who was dressed as a woman. anis said to the embarrassed Hiro, "マイ・ファースト・キスにして / Give (me) ‘my first kiss’“. After gently kissing him, anis said, "今まででいちばんリアルだった / So far it’s the most realistic (kiss),”. Hiro hid his face with both hands after that.
* Too bad no photo of Hiro getting kissed by anis but this is the closest I could get. anis is the “tall woman" in that black dress. So, kissing while sober actually makes Hiro shy, ね? (*^_^*)
Highlight 4:
「こんなに大勢の人を前 にして戸惑ってますけど、ストレートにぶつけたいと思います」~ Teru
“Though we are bewildered performing in front of such a large number of people, I think we want to hit it straight” ~ Teru
*Though I’m sure he was talking about “making a big impression” but I’m not sure whether his “wanting to hit it straight” was referring to their Tokyo Ghoul costumes or their songs selection or both.
* Teru certainly made a BIG impact on me with this sexy shot (*^_^*) This photo is everything I was hoping to see of him.
Highlight 5:
「神戸でまさかの先輩2人（シドの明希とNIGHTMAREの柩）と 仮装が被りまして。楽屋では気まずかったんですが、おかげ で仲良くなれてLINEグループまで作りました」──Hiro “In Kobe, unexpectedly my costume overlapped with 2 senpais (SID’s Aki & Nightmare’s Hitsugi). It was such an awkward situation in the dressing room, but thanks to that, I got to get to know and befriend them that we made a group in LINE” ──Hiro
* To round up Hiro’s good luck, HYDE joined in as the 4th person to dress up as Kaneki and now all four of them are in a LINE group together apparently. Don’t bother looking for it though. Private between them.
* Aki is hilarious XD
Highlight 6:
Hiro made the following little speech during their performance.
「こんなにもたくさんの人 の前にいられること、夢にも思ってませんでした。まだ21年しか生きてないけど、僕には音楽しかありません」──Hiro
“Being made to stand in front of such a large number of people, I never thought I would (get to do that) even in my wildest dream. Still having lived for only 21 years, to me it’s nothing other than (doing) music” ~ Hiro
Highlight 7:
MFS chose to put Teruki in the spotlight by selecting him to be a part of the all-star HALLOWEEN JUNKY ORCHESTRA guitarists.
*Actual photos of Teru in action with HALLOWEEN JUNKY ORCHESTRA are darn tiny :-P
Highlight 8:
When HYDE and DAIGO asked each HALLOWEEN JUNKY ORCHESTRA member about their thoughts.
Photo credits: Natalie.mu
「毎年ハロウィンから１年のスケジュール を決める。オ ファーが来なかったらガチで病むと思う」と明希が言うと、DAIGOが大きくうなづく。マイファスの Hiroも、「僕の人生で史上最高に楽し いイベントでした。来年も出させてもらえるようがんばります」と宣 言.
“Every year you decide the HALLOWEEN PARTY schedule. If an offer / invitation didn’t come my way, I think I would seriously become ill,” Aki said to which DAIGO gave a BIG nod. MY FIRST STORY’s Hiro too declared, “It’s been the best fun ever in the history of my life. I will do my best to get the (invitation) to appear next year.”.
*I just had to include Aki’s answer here because it’s so damn funny….haha!
Aww…Hiro gave HYDE a big hint there. So, since HYDE-san already took a liking to him in a big way, I think there’s a big chance we will see MFS at a VAMPS event next year………or maybe a L’arc en Ciel one too? ;-)

Highlight 9:
MFS especially Hiro really got on HYDE’s good book with the VAMPS HALLOWEEN PARTY 2015. HYDE in particular is so enamoured by Hiro that he referred to him as “俺のかわい子ちゃん” or “my cutie pie”.
