L'Arc En Ciel Parody on Japanese TV

Sesho"s Anime and Manga Reviews ·

2008/10/01

This is pretty hilarious. A Japanese TV show has the real L'Arc En Ciel on and decides to do some skits based on the band's true life secrets. The first one concerns Hyde's reputation as a crybaby and the second parodies a meeting in which the band tries to name tour merchandise. Subtitled in English. The skits start at about the one minute mark.
