Alter-egos & Side Projects

Alter-ego Groups

上下左右	Jougesayuu
上	Jou	Amano Tonbimaru
下	Ge	Matsushima Kouji
左	Sa	Yamada Shunsuke
右	Yuu	Yoshikawa Masatoshi
This is Guruguru's punk alter-ego band. I don't know if the current lineup also has specific names, but they do shows as Jougesayuu pretty often. Right before the member change, Guruguru released some copies of a special mini-album as Jougesayuu. They also appear on the Ugou no shuu omnibus, and Guruguru's Jingi naki DVD has an entire section of their live clips. For the band's image, Guruguru dress in punk clothing and spike their hair. Amano's spikes usually go up. :D

未来派探偵団	Miraiha Tantei-dan	Futuristic Detective Team
Member	Miraiha Name	Info
Yoshikawa Masatoshi	Boy Kobayashi	Based on the leader of Edogawa Ranpo's Shounen Tantei-dan.
Matsushima Kouji	Akechi Daigorou	Based on Akechi Kogorou, a well-known character from Edogawa Ranpo's books.
Yamada Shunsuke	Mimi-nashi Dolry
Amano Tonbimaru	Siam neko Koko	Siam neko Koko is the cat from Lilian Jackson Braun's "The Cat Who..." series.
This detective team is largely based off Edogawa Ranpo's Shounen Tantei-dan. Guruguru released a few Miraiha songs about these characters. After the member change, this idea didn't die, but instead Miraiha Tantei-dan Sansei was born.

未来派探偵ダンⅢ世	Miraiha Tantei-dan Sansei	Futuristic Detective Team [Third-generation]
Member	Miraiha Name	Parallel
Tamakoshi Isao	Arsène Kobayashi III	Arsène Lupin III
Maeda Kazutomo	Akechi Goemon	Ishikawa Goemon
Numakura Shin	Reen Daisuke	Jigen Daisuke
Amano Tonbimaru	Yamaoka Fujiko	Mine Fujiko
This entire team is based on the characters from the famous "Lupin the Third" manga/anime, in which the group is ironically, a band of thieves. These characters are grandchildren of the corresponding original Miraiha characters. Unlike the original Tantei-dan, Sansei released a whole CD. In addition to that, "Ala, Carte" featured a song by Yamaoka Fujiko, and a song version of the Sansei "opening theme song". Guruguru often do hilarious Miraiha skits and songs at their onemans.

カロリー天野	Calorie Amano
nonnon前田	nonnon Maeda
This duo appears on the "Ara, carte." CD, where Guruguru put together a few of their alter-ego songs. The picture on the cover shows Amano and Aniki in shiny blue glittering suits, and their only song ("Koi no hanpirei") has a cheesy oldies love song feel. From what I've heard, they have performed this live in the past, but I have no idea if they still ever do it.

SHAME SHAME

CUTT (vo) Maeda Kazuhito (Aniki's little brother)

TAKEYA (g)
KOSYO (ba)
ANIKI (g) Maeda Kazutomo (Guruguru Eigakan)

SHAME have been around for quite a while. Originally they were active from 1999 to 2002 as shame, but disbanded in 2002. Shame did a cover of "LEMONed I Scream" on the hide Tribute Spirits compilation CD. Recently (early 2006), they resumed activity as SHAME. Really worth checking out, in my opinion. At first I did not know what to expect from them, but both their shows and releases thoroughly impressed me.

元帥・鳶丸 Gensui ・ Tonbimaru (Gentobi)

Gensui Kusumoto Shuusei (Dai 14 Teikoku)

Tonbimaru Amano Tonbimaru (Guruguru Eigakan)

Amano's hilarious little side project with Gensui of Dai 14 Teikoku. All about outer space, dinosaurs, and all that fun stuff. They both sing (well, entertain), and it's not exactly a 'band' in the traditional sense. As for instrumentals, some people are credited on the album, of which I only recognize Aniki on drums. Check out the Discography page for info on their releases.
