Kintamayama 45,275 Posted June 2, 2009 (edited) The group (35 people) has left Japan, all of them masked. "I think this will keep the tension level up and that's good. When we get there, I'll be keeping them on a short leash", promised Sadogatake Oyakata. "It will be OK.. I'm looking forward to meeting my parents. I'll be washing my hands thoroughly!", said Kotooushuu, who is expecting to meet his parents, short leash or otherwise. Kotooushuu mask -erading as De Niro- "You talkin' to me?? Huh??": Edited June 2, 2009 by Kintamayama Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
