So yesterday I found this stash of old photos and I was kind of excited about it. I also found a couple of old Q&A's of that time. But as was looking and sorting these scans most of which were from 2006-2007 I realized something. Basically, the Alice Nine of that time was a very different band. Even though visually some looks very pretty good, before Rainbows their sound seems like it was lacking something substantial. But this isn't really about the sound. I realized that the members of that time (namely Shou and Tora) were also quite different people. They were younger than I am now and immature in their own way. Especially Tora. I guess that explains why I didn't fall for him earlier. The Tora I fell for was a host and a smart-ass, something he matured into. Same goes for Shou. They went a long way. What I'm saying is that now it seems natural that I didn't really get into them years ago. We both had to mature for that to happen.

Another thing that came to mind was that it seemed like during that time - around 2005-2006 they weren't nearly as close as they are now. Somehow you just get that feeling by looking at the pictures. I wonder if it was the drama of the A to U tour that brought them that much closer. Although according to my observations something seemed to happen during the Vandalize era. That adoration is Shou's eyes became painfully obvious, and even Tora's attitude noticeably changed. Even me who is not good at reading people can sense this.
