10 years for a band is usually a milestone for them to reflect upon their past achievements as well as their short comings. Through these years, Nightmare has worked hard with back to back tours, constant releases of singles, albums and DVDs, and full dedication to their artistic craft. As much as I would like to say 'congratulations,' that is merely the tip of the iceberg in how much they have achieved in our eyes. I would love nothing more than for our team to be as hard-working as them.

This is only the beginning for them, as well as us. Congratulations, Nightmare. May you have many more years to come.

- seven, NaitoUSA leader

March 2, 2010: Special Mea Video on NACK5

On NACK5's website, they have posted a special White Day video of Nightmare having a Hoippudekos contest against their fans for White Day. Hoippudeko, or "Whipped decorations," are small, whipped decorated accessories of sweets, like macaroons, tarts, etc. The "whip" is from something called Decotti, a silicone based cream that's basically the glue if you have other pieces to join together.

In order for you to view this video, you must be a member of NACK5. Membership to NACK5 costs 300 yen a month.
