RUKI: You know, we are a visual kei band, so do nails, makeup and stuff, right?
KAI: Yes.
RUKI: So sometimes people tell me “He is gay” and things like that.
KAI: Ehhhhh ?! Because of the makeup?
RUKI: Yeah, tell me these things. There are those moments … For example, in the comments of my instagram, people say “bitch” and things like that.
RUKI and KAI: [laughs]
RUKI: I mean, because my clothes are different and is not manly in the view of some people.

RUKI: But honestly during the lives I can see happiness in our fans. They seem to really enjoy our music, so it makes me happy. I don’t care about those other bad things because the impression of our fans is the only thing that matters to me. And I believe that not all of them think so negatively.
From: Radio the GazettE, with Ruki and Kai.
It’s nice that Ruki not take it so seriously and as an adult can handle this, but what about the fans? That’s a bit childish and silly. Don’t make comments like these to the GazettE members, it’s very unpleasant. It’s a matter of respect.
I am glad he’s laughing it off so easily. I mean he’s a free spirit and he can do as an artist what he want’s to do. Whenever I see those ridiculous comments on his Insta it makes me just furious. Honestly ! How do these people dare to write such things !?! I am really glad Ruki’s ignoring them, because these people have to get ignored because they’re just idiots.
