I can?t think of a reason why EMI Japan, Universal, U3 management, or Hikki herself would want to fake illness, especially because it would undoubtedly cause fans worry and stress.

I have been in Japan now for a week or so, I been trying to catch up on everything Hikki from family and friends etc, Hikki fans here, seem to thoroughly enjoy Hikki playing ?hard to get?, although I did notice a sort of polite frustration when news stories conflict, and Hikki made a point of attending the AKB48 concert with Mika, making sure the moment was captured in a photo call. I convinced to tell everybody ?I?m ok?.

I would like to think that soon fans will be able to hear the fruits of the reported studio session with Rafael Moreira, (unconfirmed), and with everything crossed, a revival of sorts with TITO.

The calm Japanese acceptance of famous media celebrities wayward eccentricities, is irritating and a pure cop-out, I have a suspicion that the millions of Hikki fans here are boiling over emotionally, just that they have a much longer fuse, and pack it down inside so later the frustration comes flooding out by the bucket load?

Hikki is 26, lots of time as a musician and song writer to develop?..


To Quote a past post from: seraphim, that examples a quote also from Hikki about her past periods of blog silence :


And if you want to see a long newsless time, check the blog translation site archive. You can see from 2004 April all the way to 2005 January, she had no blog posts whatsoever (and nothing Japanese released too! Exodus came out in the middle there with little to no fanfare as we all know) while her comeback post gave no explanation of why she was away for so long.Quote: http://hikki.blogspot.com/2005/01/long-time-no-see.htmlIt's been so long since I last updated that I'd been embarrassed to update here again. . . It's something like those appreciative words "it's delicious" or "thank you" that the husband of the married couple with poor communications for a long time is hesitant to tell his wife. . . that kind of stuff. (I'm still the same when trying to explain things)And I don't think the Hikki entourage is purposefully staying quiet. When you're working and in the business world, two months can go by REALLY quickly without you even realizing that two months have gone by. Sure, it seems long to us fans because we're WAITING, but when you're working and have so much on your plate, it can easily fly by without notice.
