How long has www.taiji-sawada.com been gone for?  I just tried to go there for the first time in a while, and it's disappeared.  Weird.  Maybe he's ditched it in favor of the new blog and "channel" thing.

It's gone now for two days, I think. First it happened that you got redirected to the new blog (so it was only possible to have a look at sawada.com by pressing the "stop loading" button of the browser) and finally the site was down.
Because of the redirecting thing it just seemed to be obvious. Well, I think it's kind of sad. I have no clue how to visit Gentaro's blog and Mitsuo's blog and so on now. Never bookmarked them. Also I wanted to have a look at the site of Kanji Shimitsu's site again... :? Dammit!
Seems that changes always have their advantages and disadvantages. :(

So I smiled and was happy... and it became worse

That sucks. :?  But since it redirected for a while then I guess he got rid of it on purpose, rather than it having been unintentional somehow.

Well, I know the URL for Mitsuo anyway: http://www.mitsuotakeuchi.com

Or if you want his blog specifically: http://www.mitsuotakeuchi.com/diary/diary.cgi

I guess this means we also lost the fanletter postal address, though judging from the problems with his blog comments, maybe he doesn't want that public for a while. :P  (Not that I'm the fanletter type myself, but hey... it was nice to know such an option existed, at least.)

Ah, thanx for Mitsuo's urls! :D Would have missed his blog, haha!

Uhm, wasn't the adress for letters also T-FENIX? Not sure, but the old site was also T-FENIX and maybe he simply broke up with that completely? Ah, I really don't know.

No problem!  I like Mitsuo's blog too. :P

Yeah, the address for fanletters was T-Fenix, but I don't think he broke up with them, since there's a "T-Fenix Kazuki" who sometimes posts in his blog (that's the guy who warned people about making dumbass comments).

What exactly is T-Fenix, anyway?  I assumed it meant "Taiji Fenix" and was his personal management group or something along those lines, but I don't really know for sure.

Oh yeah, I forgot I have Kenji's URL too: http://dtr.way-nifty.com/
Is it just me, or does his new year's photo look like a cross between Taiji and John Lennon?

Damn, I really liked taiji-sawada.com... But hey, at least I saved that song "Mad Destroy" on my pc before he put the site down...  8)
