Who are An Cafe? A Japanese Oshare_Kei rock band formed in 2003, all from the Kanto region of Japan. Sometimes known as Antic Cafe, Antique Cafe, or An Cafe. They consist of 4 members: Teriku (Drums/Leader of the Band), Miku (vocals), Bou (Guitar), and Kanon (Bass). They are all very different but form one kick-ass group. Their videos are always very unique and incorporate bright colours in them. They are spectacular live and little jrocker female fans go wild when they kiss each other. Their music is catchy and easy to dance to. Listen to their songs and you'll fall in love.
A common quote from a live concert: "Omg! An Cafe! This concert is so freakin aweso...HOLY CRAP DID THEY JUST KISS?? AHHHHHHH!! -girly scream-" Hehahaha.. ^^
The very first one, top left, is Bou! An adorable bundle of joy. The guitarist of the band. What? Why'd I say "he's" you ask? Oh.. that's because Bou is a male! xD Too good to be true?? I know.. but he's 100% guy. No, he's not gay; fan service. He's known for this cute and innocent stature. But still rocks out.
Next, top right, Miku! Screaming king! lol.. the Vocalist of the band. He's very visual and jumpy when performing, and very noticeable, lol. He screams a lot and has a loud character that's fun and psychotic, lol. He's always kissing Bou.. once again, fan service. He also does a good Donald Duck voice... o.o
Bottom left, you'll see Teriku; leader, drummer, mother of the band. As their leader, I guess that's why he talks a lot. Because he does... But it's enjoyable because his voice is cute, lol. Which is weird since he's the oldest. Bou's voice is deeper than his. O_o In my opinion, he's the most "normal". Although, there are times when he too acts out. :]
Lastly, Kanon! The hot hot hot sexy one. (even though they all are) The bassist. He's really funny and a great joker, but he's always quiet or too shy, so you don't hear from him much. This makes him very mysterious.. which makes him hotter. So yay!! +__+
An Cafe are so friggin retarded and awesome, they have their own fashion, manywords, their own world, fans, this smiley face: o(≧∀≦)o, and their own hand sign! lol.. seriously, they have their own hand sign.. it's like making the rockout hand sign; which is two ways. One, you keep your thumb out, or two, you hold it over your index and middle finger. So their hand sign is like the second one, except instead of holding it over them, you put both on the palm of your thumb, lol. Which kinda looks like a bunny.. or a dear o.o;
Um.. what else is there? ..That's about it for the basics. Now about the change for An Cafe.
An Cafe is no longer just four members. Did they add someone? No. Bou left the band, and was replaced with two new ones. It's not that normal break up bands usually have. Bou left because he wanted to go and continue with this life. He wanted changeling happenings and he just wouldn't be anymore with the band. They all still love each other. Bou performed his last live on the Hibiya Yagai Ongaku Dou live on April 30th. He left a message to all the fans and to his band members on the An Cafe main site when the news got out. It was in Japanese but I found a translation! Yay! To read Bou's messages, click the link below. I did it like this because it's so long and I still have things to post ^.^;
Now.. the New An Cafe. Yay!! *ahem* Booooooo!! *throws tomatoes at noobs*Kanon (bass), Yuuki; new member (keyboard), Miku (vocals), Takuya; new member (bou's replacement; guitar), and Teruki (drums).
With Takuya as Bou's replacement, he better do a good goshdarn job, lol. Well.. since Bou was the innocence of the group, maybe he may have that, as he does seem younger, but he dresses like a male, so that's gone. :/ And what's with this friggin keyboardist? Doesn't he know there's no curly hair and shade wearing in An Cafe?! Oh, this Yuuki better be one awesome keyboardist, because his style lacks and he doesn't have to be there. I can't wait to see a video with them! I'm so anxious to see what they're gonna look like, the new members, and how their gonna benefit the group. Until then or when Bou comes back will be the next time i'll mention them. If not then, screw it. Long live the original An Cafe! (with pictures & videos) :3
*Squee!!* Miku can be sooo adorable! Not like Bou adorable. I guess boyish adorable.. like hot. Because Bou adorable is just pretty and innocent.. like a baby doll, or a child. I just realized this is the same photo shoot as my header.. they have the same clothes on. But a different theme. Coke and pizza! lol.. the all American dish.
Posting links now to save space :0
IMG #1 this is kinda big.. but Bou is beautiful *.* And Miku's a pimp, xD

IMG #4 Miku looks shocked, Kanon looks more emo with those blond streaks, Teruki looks better with dark hair, and Bou is the same as ever :D IMG #5 IMG #6 Sex Pot Revenge clothing line *hearts* Ahhhh! Kanon has devil horns! *drools* Oh, their clothes are nice.. love Miku's tie. His hair could use some black and red gold streaks tho'. Nah, Teruki looks better with golden brown hair, not black, nor golddish blond. Love his belt thingy..
IMG #7 The singles and group pic of my layout :] IMG #8 Shy, hot and mysterious :D Yay!! Kanon rocks.. lol.
IMG #9 Pizza and coke group pic. Damn, I love each of them equally in this pic. *gawks* x)
Local Feed: Featuring An Cafe// Umm... yeah. I found out: Miku is a total pervert. And Beach K somehow strangely translates to: "I like nipples." Lmao!
Bou Shikisai Moment Comment (subbed) Lol.. Kanon was the camera man.. I wonder where Miku was.. in the back somewhere..
Kanon Shikisai Moment Comment (subbed) xD My favorite one.. Kanon's not wearing make-up :o I think I was kinda traumatized watching this, but I LOVE Miku's laugh, lol. So funny..
Miku Shikisai Moment Comment (subbed) I see Miku likes Dragon Ball Z and Donald Duck? xD He does a pretty good voice. I'm just surprised he kills Disney characters with air freshener. x)
Teruki Shikisai Moment Comment (subbed) Teruki is so mature and serious.. lol. But it was crazy once he got his message out. I'm just glad they make videos of themselves promoting their lives and album or single information. That rocks!!! All artists should do that! I guess for TV too.. as a commercial, but I doubt it in America.
Merrymaking PV~ AH! I love them.. they so rock. Love Bou's guitar solo and Miku's wild singing and dancing, lol. :D
Wagamama Koushinkyoku PV~ Ai, the qualities bad, but this video's another favorite. This was the first song I heard by them :D LOL @ the bathroom parts and the huge cards, xD And hearts to another guitar solo, hehe. Love love love {♥}
Last but not least, just in case anyone is interested, please view the An Cafe 2 page Interview. The video is in Japanese, but the interview was written out in English, so please read it. It's worth while and why not, so go ahead. Thanks :]
Hope this entry I took my time to do was good enough. Bye now. Nyappy!! o(≧∀≦)o
Even though it is the season for big alcoholic celebration, 21st coming up, this summer was the very first time I had a drink at the bar. This wasn't the first, a few lines of ignited shots were, lol, but this was one especially made for me and my friend by the bartender at the end of the night~ I say very nice touch to the end of that part day, and a happy 21st birthday to me from Ai-Tune Karaoke x3
