Rei-chan, você vai para sempre estar em meu coração. Obrigada por fazer parte da minha vida e por trazer carinho e sorrisos em tudo que fazia. O the GazettE se tornou eterno graças a você. Obrigada por tudo! Eu te amo! 💓🕊️ 🇧🇷

The first the GazettE's song I've ever listened to is Cassis, and since your passing, it sounds different. Now it sounds to me how it feels to miss someone. I'm so sorry for not being able to make it to your memorial last 27th... I hope, from all of my heart, that all the love from fans all around the world have reached you. I hope you are in peace, and that you keep showing up in the night sky as the prettiest star, and of course keep attending concerts, so your bandmates won't feel lonely.

Dear Reita, I love you and miss you. GAZEROCK will never die and we will continue to support the GazettE. You (and Toshiya) made me want to switch from the guitar to the bass. In fact, you were and are one of the reasons why I miss playing an instrument. Just know that you're a huge inspiration. Rest well. 🩶

Dear REITA, thank you for being one of the coolest people to ever exist, and for being a huge inspiration to many. I will never forget how excited you were at the meet and greet when I told you that I play bass. I am forever grateful for you and your legacy, and I hope you always feel how much the world loves you. While we miss your physical presence, I hope you remain with us Six Guns in spirit as we all protect the GazettE. Hope you had a great first heavenly birthday. Rock in peace! 💛🕊️

from Morgan BringsPlenty

Reita, thank you for everything. You were a part of my childhood basically. The gazette is one of few bands whom had brought me out of a dark place in my life. You inspired me to play bass . which my boyfriend had bought one for me to help me learn. You will forever live in our hearts. We love you reita and hope you rest well . We will love you and the gazette forever.

Gazette played a huge part growing up my life and helped
me build on my talents and Career Reita actually inspired me in many ways let alone my older sister was a big fan of him. I just like to thank Reita for being part of Gazette and thank him for being part of my sisters life. We just want to say this isn't goodbye we will all meet again one day. I'm sure when that day comes it will be the best concert to be ever played.

Dear Reita,

It seems like yesterday since we lost you. The feeling of sadness still overwhelms me.

You may not be here with us physically but you will live forever.

Rest in paradise and rock on!

from Lisa / Alison Hylan

Since then, the divine in me recognized the divine within you.
Vibration of sounds guided me through unsafe mind and inner venture.
Endings happen quiet but awakenings are rude,
Yet tears aren't only meant to convey sadness, but also gratitude.
Thank you, Reita.
And now, the divine in me will always honour the divine that is you.

Borrowing a line from Queen's song,
"touch my world with your fingertips.. And we can have forever. And we can love forever."
You did it, Reita. You did it.

れいたさん、あなたがいないことを今もまだ実感できていません

一生the GazettEについていきます

Reita, many years have passed since I discovered your band, and you especially. I was only 11 years old when I fell in love with The GazettE, and you ended up being my favorite member in the whole band. I’ll never forget when my aunt went to Japan, and bought me your Stacked Rubbish album. I’m now 30 years old, and discovering this news broke my heart. I hope you’re resting in peace. Thank you for leaving such an imprint on our hearts, and in the music world!

Gazette foi a primeira banda de j-rock que eu tive contato e você foi o primeiro que me chamou atenção com a faixa no nariz, a falta que você faz é imensa e eu queria muito ter tido uma oportunidade de ter te visto ao vivo. Obrigada por tudo, você vai ser pra sempre meu baixista favorito.

この世に生まれてきて、the GazettEのREITAになってくださり、本当にありがとうございました。「誰からも嫌われない人はいない」と言いますが、REITAさんのことを嫌いな人はこの世にいないんじゃないかと思うくらい、皆に愛される、素敵な方だと思っています。

REITAさんを好きになって、the GazettEを好きになったから、素敵な友人や、楽しい思い出が沢山できました。

REITAさんと直接お話しできた最初で最後の機会、NINTHのサイン会の時、すごく緊張して、「北海道からきました！」と言った私に、優しく「ありがとう。気をつけて帰ってね。」と言ってくださったこと、とても嬉しかったです。一生忘れません。ちなみに…あの後、飛行機が欠航して、帰れなくなりました…(笑)

これからもずっと、REITAさんがくださった思い出を大切にします。帰り道は、いつも気をつけて帰りますね！ありがとうございました。WE ROCK!!

hmmm I just thought it would be interesting to write something, I don’t even know what to write, I just heard that Reita came into someone’s dream and told them not to worry about his death, I guess that’s all I wanted to say, I love The creativity of this group is very strong and all the participants are truly legendary!! 🧷📿🧷📿🧷🖤🍋‍🟩🖤🍋‍🟩🖤

Reita, no hace mucho tiempo que ha pasado de tu lamentable partida a la hora que te dedico este mensaje, pero quisiera compartir que has sido un artista incomparable. Le has dedicado mas de 20 a?os a la m?sica y tu exc?ntrico arte ha cautivado e inspirado a los fans alrededor del mundo. Tu gran deseo ha sido que Gazette viva por siempre, y estoy seguro que tus colegas, los integrantes de esta grandiosa banda y tus fans van a preservar ese legado que nos dejaste.

Hasta siempre Reita.

Hello Reita, I miss you. We all miss you. You were taken from this Earth way too soon. I’ve been a fan since 2006 and I’ve never expected this to happen. Your bright aura shined in the arenas, your goofiness made everyone laugh and your talent with your bass inspired those that always wanted to play an instrument. Keep jamming up there! I’m playing GazettE songs in your memory.

Gazerock is not dead!!!

REITA, obrigada por ter sido ímpar a sua maneira, pela sua singularidade sem igual. Sou grata ainda por ter tido a honra de ser coadjuvante de seu protagonismo, de ter sido espectadora de sua estadia e saiba que, enquanto ainda existo, me assegurarei de que seu heroísmo seja lembrado, mesmo que tenhamos um único espectador. Grande irmão, obrigada por tudo! Certamente sua energia atravessou fronteiras e deixou marcas profundas, uma chama que nunca irá se apagar! Te amo!

今までthe GazettEの音楽やライブに沢山救われてきました。
れいたさんがいなくなって気持ちの整理も全く出来ていないけど、今もthe GazettEの音楽に救われています。

この間の豊洲ピット、れいたさん絶対参加してましたよね？
これからも参加してくださいね、ツアーも一緒に回りましょうね、また大きい会場もライブハウスも海外も
フェスも連れて行ってくださいね。

生まれてきてくれて、the GazettEとしてずっと活動してくれてありがとう。
the GazettEに出会えて、れいたさんのファンになれて幸せだよ。

優しくて涙脆くて格好よくておもしろくて可愛くて繊細で男らしくて仲間思いなれいたさんが大好きだよ！

本当に本当に本当に本当に悲しいけど、the GazettEは絶対守るかられいたさんも見守っていてね。

またね！

Dear REITA,
Thank you for being born! You worked so hard all these years, please take a good rest.
In my memory, you'll always be like a cool older brother, a true rockstar who loves bikes, cars, leather jackets and silly jokes. Even though you never meant to grab attention, the spotlight during the live shows was always on you because you shine so brightly. A true backbone for the band.
Sorry for crying on your birthday, I promise to be stronger and greet you with a smile another time.
