    @_@... L'Arc~en~Ciel?!

    Does anyone like L'Arc~en~Ciel?... i just saw some of their music videos.. and all i can say is... "O_O".... its kinda weird.. and lots of ppl have recommended them to me.. :confused:

    maybe its because i havent heard a good song by them...
    but i just saw...
    Flood of Tears, Dune, And She Said....

    are there good songs by them?...
    and was wondering also ...have any of their songs been in any anime?

    L'Arc~en~Ciel are okay in my books...but their songs tend to be slower than I like...

    The animes I know that have had L'Arc songs are Rurouni Kenshin and DNA^2, but they've probably done 1 or 2 more...

    Kenshin's 4th (or 5th?) Ending: 4th Avenue Cafe
    DNA^2 Opening & Ending: One of these is Blurry Eyes, but I forget the other's title...o_O

    I like 4th Ave. :)

    I love this group. They are great. You should see their video for Drivers High, Neo Universe, and Stay Away, and Flower(that ones kinda i weird i think, cant really remember). Those are my favs. Drivers High is a great song, it was used as the 1st opening theme for GTO as well. They have lots of good songs too. I find however that depending on your tastes you'll like different ones than me. Your best bet is to go on Audio Galaxy and just download whatever you find. They play a lot of different stuff. Wow this was longer than intended, but I hope it helps.

    woah..old thread.

    And YES! I LOVE LARUKU!

    And I went to their concert about two weeks ago...=D =D =D =D =D

    I really recommend their new song called
    "jiyuu e no shoutai" which isnt out in stores for another week or so, but i'm sure you can find it somewhere on the net. *^_^*

    L'arc-en-Ciel is pretty good.

    They are deffinatly one of my favorite Jrock bands.

    Another good song you might want to check into is called

    Ready Steady Go

    and its on their SMILE album. Track 2.

    Its quite fun and the Music Video to it is cool.

    Ready Steady Go is a great song! I like that whole Smile album, it has Spirits Dream Inside(one of my faves!)!!! Is it a collection of their best songs?

    I like "Hitomi no Jyunin" also, but I haven't heard "jiyuu e no shoutai", I'm missing out ;_; I'll search some more for it!

    I loved Ready Steady Go! ^^

    So far, L'Arc~en~Ciel made few more songs for anime, as I recall, I think they did Niji for RK in addition to RK's ending 4th Aveue Cafe. And from what I've heared they made for DNA^2, and we have Full Metal Alchemist's "Ready Steady Go".

    I think they just made one for Naruto, or am I mistaken?
