They broke up last year while Hide's dead on Sat, 2 May, 1998.

Too bad I only know all the whats but not all the whys. If only I could ask one of them... But I guess it's impossible… so...

^^ Thanks Daniel. Here is a cut copy from the email he sent me about the latest thing of what X Japan's member are doing. Thank you very very much.

Like everybody knows, Toshi is working on his solo work (that certainly true ^-^)

Same thing for Heath... when he was in X Japan he stills had a studio with his brother.now he have cut his hair and do solo.

For Pata, I heard that he joined a group something called "Paff" or ^^°... gonna open my magazines and will give you the group name late ok???

For Yoshiki, he's working on a lot of project... well in May he've just put 'Shoko Kitano', the 15 years old girl in the World of the music and he said that she will become a good singer. He's also working on a movie "In god's hand" where you will find (hear I mean) his music.And I also heard (this is not sure) that he will produce (make) a newrockband in the year 2000, calls Violet UK (just heard it was a plan...) of course if he do it ,,,, he will certainly be the drummer ^-^

Please don't go on reading if you like Hide more than you can bear, as this will open up old wounds. It opened up mine, too, and I was hurting all the way I typed it in, but it's still my job.

Being KPO is my job, and it hurts so even for such a feelings-drained person like me.

I found a page with everything but a coffin about Hide's death... (Please don't hit me) and here are some things I've found. I hope you will carefully read the words and study, for they bear a great meaning. And I must add in my own opinions here... Because Yoshiki was so close to Hide and so was everyone, it did hurt so much to see him leave us, even for some time. We will all be going to meet him soon, one day, so don't worry… At last believe it this way. Somehow, I just think that Hide did leave for some very personal reasons... I don't think it's an accident, though some of you may say so. It's his own choice, he chose that way… Don't ask me why I think this way, somehow, I just feel it.

Scroll down and see that pic below. I can tell you that Hide (I don't think you'll be angry now that I write your name this way...) knew something when that pic was being taken. Call me stupid, call me mad...

Hide, Sayonara
