Personal Experiences: Getting to meet Lucifer

This is Bloodtail's personal experience when she met Lucifer in july 7 2002 while she was presenting a in-store event ^_^. Bloodtail has a site where you can read more about her trips to Japan, I totally recommend you to visit it!

After a few hours, we arrive at the outskirts of Tokyo.. and then I started to get anxious because the Lucifer Luscious live would begin only in a few hours. (It started at 5) So at 3:30, we get dropped off at another temple and my mom and brother and I run to the subway station and take the whole line all the way to Shibuya, then change again for Shinjuku... by this time, it is around 4:15. Taihen! The maps were horrible and the directions I had made no sense, so we it was now 5:15 and we were lost! We give up and call a taxi.. and at 5:40, we arrive at the Like and Edison CD store... ohhh god.. that was a really embarrassing moment... x_x me stepping out of the taxi in the narrow ally all flustered with my family in front of a long line of lolitas. I get frantic because everyone was holding some sort of slip which I thought was a ticket, so I run upstairs and mutter "Lucifer Luscious... Lucifer Luscious..!!" to the salesgirl... go gives me her two albums. x_x I ask for a ticket and she shows me all the tickets for lives that weren't LLV. x_x And I admit, at this point, I was completely stuck on Japanese but I found out that buying the CD's gives you admittance to the event about to take place downstairs. So I rushed to buy them (totalling $80 US) and run back downstairs to the line outside.... I'm number 59. =P Everyone is holding roses and other gifts since it was LLV-sama's birthday after all... I felt soooo embarassed and out of place that I failed to notice several guys dressed in visual that my mom later told me about. x_x At 6:00, the door finally opened.. my mom forced my brother to go with me and she waited outside. =P My brother was really pissed off.
Despite me being number 59, I sat on the floor in the second last row and I think there were only about 25-35 people sitting around me. The store was hastily cleared so there was a mini stage at the back. The MC (a cute store clerk) introduced Lucifer Luscious and everyone began to politely clap. Ahhhh! =D She finally came in, wearing her aristocrat-pirate outfit complete with a sword, and several crucifixes on her neck, which were just designed and for sale afterwards. She looked really beautiful, although in reality, she is much older than she appears in pictures. She sang 3 songs (I think) from her newest album. Then she did a question and answer period written by fans (which most of which I got totally lost on since they seemed to be talking at light speed x_x) and then she did a meet-and-greet session. By this time... I started to get really nervous cuz I didn't know what the heck to say to her and I realized my japanese really sucks... I waited for a long time anyways. x_x Lolitas kept barging ahead of me.. but finally I walk up to her and I'm really speechless. x_x "Konnichiwa" she says to me. "Konnichiwa, watashi wa canada kara kimasu, dakara, nihongo ga jo--heta desu. gomen," I stammer out. "Honto ni?" Uhhhh shamefully to say, the conversation kind of went downhill after that. x_____x Cuz she talked soooo fast and she knew I didn't understand so she was really nice about it. I'm really afraid I might have accidentaly insulted her because she said something about either this live or the next one, and I didn't know what to answer... and then the hilarious part is her trying to spell my name. ^_^ I should scan it up. heehee.. nevertheless, we made it through the 2 awkward minutes and she shook my hand for a long time *gush gush*. =D Waaa!!! Lucifer Luscious sama ga daisuki!!


*Don't know if it was my pronounciation or her unfamiliarity with english that made my name turn out so wrong. ^^"" (it's supposed to be clarice)... so finally we both gave up and i told her in katakana...*
