Hey everyone! With Royz’s upcoming live at Budokan, a friend and I are planning to organize a flower stand from us overseas fans. My friend is in Japan and will take care of everything locally. We wanted to ask if anyone would like to participate and support this project. For the 10th Anniversary, we fans already managed to create something and I’m sure we can do it again.If you are interested feel free to reach out to us!
may i ask how to get royz budokan tickets? i would love to go and witness this special day with everyone
well.. since covid the problem is that you usually need a japanese phone number for getting tickets. or you buy it at the door. then you usually don't need one.
The ones who gave me a meaning to be alive were Royz-gya-chan. The ones who made me change my own self were Royz-gya-chan.
That's why I will repay you with lots of music.

twilight memory
The dead leaves are flowing and falling,
making a small sound.
Run away from the calling empty heart
that doesn’t have a key.
Loneliness and happiness change their shapes one day.
Right next to me it whispers: “Are you at easy, being alone?”
The dry wind…
It doesn’t hurt as much as back then.
It’s only words,
saying that I want to continue these uncertain relationships.
Holding your cold hand tightly in that time that passes by.
I’m the only one who can embrace you.
We are wrapped up by the sky in autumn
that seems to end the sadness.
Fear will definitely throw its shadows on us
but I won’t ever let go of your hand.
The “you” that was forgotten to be thrown away
and the “me” that was forgotten to be erased.
Right next to me it whispers: “Do you hate being alone?”
Without saying anything both are pass by each other.
They are acting like strangers.
At the corner of the street the small fingers
that were locked are slowly letting go.
The days that were so dear to me are fading away.
I’m gently caressing the hair of you, resting on my chest.
We are wrapped up by the dusky, misty winter sky.
And when the next spring comes, look,
we will be closer to each other than back then.
In the middle of the night you often called me, crying,
but with that lonely, sweet voice I fell for you.

AILES - Royz (English Translation)
Where shall we go?
We lost our way.
Before we even knew it we were called “adults”.
With “the dream of youth we’ve painted”
we’re closing our heart but…
My young self will remember this moment more than anything else
because the song of that time will make me remember it.
We human beings are always having doubt in our future, aren’t we?
But we’re having only this one, so there’s no reserve.
Somewhere along the way I realized that.
And still, in the future…
before we regret…
in order to find an answer
it’s shining down on the asphalt and we walk ahead.
I knew that it was useless that way.
And still I acted as if I didn’t see that.
In the bottom of my heart the answer has already been decided but…
That’s what a downcast girl once said:
“Am I able to dream even though I’m an adult?”
And he said:
“That’s not how it is. You’re able to dream BECAUSE you’re an adult.”
“The things you are able to do will increase. And you will grow wings to reach the dreams that you’ve just painted until now.”
“The meaning in dreaming will get bigger.”
We human beings are always having doubt in our future, aren’t we?
But we’re having only this one, so there’s no reserve.
Somewhere along the way I realized that.
And still, I keep on walking. I have hope. I believed in that.
I forced my legs to move that are like paralyzed
and changed it into the trigger to get ready.
For the future I can’t see yet…
For the future where my true feelings are.
To find the answer
spread your wings and fly!
When I had to return home my mother said all the time how lonely she will be again and cried all the time, so I hugged her. I thought that I wanted to visit my family, even though it was almost impossible. My parents don't really know what I'm doing, so I showed them a Royz DVD to let them know. And they went all like: "When did you start to sing!?" And still, they are supporting me which makes me really happy.
Hey! I just wanted to say a HUGE THANKYOU for taking over this page & contributing so much happiness to my teenage years. I came back to Tumblr like today because I missed Royz and just fangirling and reading your posts so much suddenly. Super thankful for you deciding to not quit and just hanging around despite not being active. You don’t owe anyone updates or whatever. I just hope that you know that there’s people out here who appreciate all your effort and when u have random bubbles of time, just come back no pressure :) hope to be able to be your source of support somehow too. Wishing you all the best!
Why are you so precious T_T
Yeah, somehow tumblr never got rid of me and Royz didn't either xD I am not the fan I used to be but I just can't abandon them ^^"
I am so happy this blog still helps people to find out more about them or just come back and re-read things and remember the times and be happy and helps forget about other things in life that might pull them down at the moment.
Whatever the reason is you guy are (still) reading this blog or checking out pictures... I appreciate you so much and hope you will always have a good time coming here ^_^
Hey, it's sad to see this blog so dead but I can understand you. The fandom is not as big as it was and to keep updates and translations is alot of work that I clearly see wouldn't be worth it anymore. And you have your own life as well. Thank you for all your efford over the years!! This blog taught me so much about Royz and helpt me understand things! I will still come here again and again to read and remember. Thank you so much for the amazing work!! \(*>*)/
omg I read this when I was on vacation and it warmed my heart so much.
Sorry for my super late reply!! I wanted to properly take time for it, so here it is... ^^
I remember when I realized more and more that the vk fandom feels like dying. I remember how I still loved Royz so much and I don’t want to say “it’s not worth it anymore” but you are right.. it got somehow frustrating and I started to wonder if the time and effort I put into it can stand in relation to the people who still want to read it. I don't mean neccessarily the reblogs or likes. It was always enough for me to just see that people read it. Some sent super cute thanks-messages like yours and I really loved them. That was all I wanted.. to contribute to the fandom. To make the band better understood to people who couldn't speak Japanese. But yeah... it got less and less but the time and effort was still the same.
Then, my lifestyle changed and I got less time for translations and posting pics.
And I think that was the final blow. It broke my heart when I decided to stop posting pics. To stop making myself believe that I need to do translations every now and then.
I am a person for whom it's super hard to quit something xD" Especially something my heart is so connected to like this royz-blog.
I remember how I started only as helper for the founder in 2011 (wtf. this blog exists for 1/3 of my life!!) and took lead of it a couple of months later when the owner left.
Even though I don't post regularly anymore for like 2 years now this blog is still very very dear to me. And it makes me so happy to hear that you guys still come here every now and then and check out stuff. And that it really helped you understanding this band better.
There are still days when I think of reviving it. That's why I never posted something official like... "I am quitting here!" But I need to be honest: I guess that day won't come. Maybe there will be song translations in the future. Just a few. Nothing regular. That's what I want to keep open xD But I won't delete this blog. It has too much emotional value for me ;D
Also... Don't keep your hopes too high. I will travel the world for the upcoming year xD" So there won't be time to do anything on here.
Ah, btw... I STILL have - not many but a few - translations and gifs in my drafts... from years ago that I never posted xD" Maybe their anniversary would be a nice opportunity......?
In the end.... again - thanks so much for your message! It made me smile and I love to hear that there are still other Royz-fans out there and for whom this blog still has some value ^-^
I still love this band and its fandom. And I will always think back of the high-time of this blog and this fandom.
I will always remember all the emotions and memories I made thanks to this abdn and thanks to you, the Royz-fandom!

Fun fact: You sent this ask to me the day I wrote on twitter how much I miss being in contact with mako-maru who helped SO much on this blog back then......
I went to travel to their country by chance 2 weeks ago and thought of it...
It was by chance it was the same day you sent me this ask! Or at least I guess it was by chance xD
I talked to Kazuki on the phone.
"Royz continued for 10 years. Thanks for inviting me to join Royz back then."
He said: "Thanks for keep going."
We both grew up.
