Title: Ricky's Mana Questions
iSynth - March 8, 2008 11:35 PM (GMT)
I know I ask a TON of these, and I don't plan to stop asking annoying/stupid/fanboy questions so I decided to make my own thread so I don't waste space making a new one for every little question that pops into my head!! (I hope it's ok...) ANYWAYS!!!

Mana showed up in full visual kei regalia, a black lace dress, teased spiky hair and white makeup. As loudly as his clothes spoke, Mana's voice was so soft to be almost indecipherable and it took four trasnaltors to get his sparse words out at a Saturday interview session. "My philosophy of life is basically doing what i like to do," he said in one of his longer quotes. "I just have music inside myself, and I want to bring it out." Much of the reason for Mana's appearance in California was to promote a 2006 tour of the U.S., which will bring one of Japan's most unique stars into territory where his music and style may be unknown. "I've never done anything in America before - I don't know what to expect. I hope that if as many people as possible show up, that would make me very happy." From the reaction of fans to previous visual kei band performances at anime conventions, there are more female fans than males for Mana's style of music, but the performer has a different opinion. 'A lot of the visual kei performers are men, but I don't agree that a lot of the fans are women. In Europe, the audience was 50-50."
While Mana said some of the sound of his music came from the classical music he heard from his father in law, he admitted that the gothic sounds come from old vampire movies.
His fashion style is something different, something very personal. "There are a number of people who have copied me, but I'm going for my own unique style. I don't care what others do." |
It's supposedly an article about the 06 anime expo... huh!! Interesting find? I think so!! Could it be that my soul mate is already taken by a real girl? I'm simply devastated!! Any thoughts? (Sarah... I'm waiting on you to assure me these are absolute lies and that Mana is safe and all on his own waiting for me to scoop him up and steal him away!!)

I don't think anyone really minds you asking questions after all what's this section for, eh?
Lol I'm not surprised. When you think about it he'd be somewhere near 40 by now so most people have settled by then. While Mana remains very elusive when it comes to his personal life there are alot of rumors and an old interview translation which suggest that Mana may be with his (current?) manager Yuki Itoh (I think thats her name). I genuinely hope Mana has a special someone weither they be male or female.

Mana's FATHER was a music teacher... so was his mother. Mana has said himself that his parents always played classical music when he was growing up and its had influence over his own style.
Regarding Mana's relationship status.............. ITS CLASSIFIED!
Only the man himself knows.
And its a very touchy subject for many fans.
The name that is mentioned a being "Mana's girlfriend/Wife/Whatever" is a complete and utter rumour.
So for the sake of keeping the peace lets not talk about it.

Completely agreed.
Although...
on the note of Yukie Itoh. My connections have told me shes with another man in another record label.
HONESTLY, I highly doubt hes married...but if he is, what can we do about it?
I believe we've had this conversation before in another thread.
For the sake of this topic going in the exact same direction its been in before, I'm locking it.
You're more than welcome to make another thread with your questions, iSynth, but lets keep out the "Is Mana married?" discussion because it has been brought up several times before.
I understand your topic was a little different concerning a report, however, this same generic topic has been brought up in these forums many many many times before.
