Question from the audience:
Did you think that Eikichi Yazawa’s career as a singer was over when he fell victim to a major fraud incident in Australia?
Eikichi Yazawa’s Incident in Australia
When Eikichi Yazawa was defrauded in Australia, I honestly didn’t think his career as a singer would come to an end. He was clearly a victim, and it seemed
unlikely that the incident would have a direct impact on his music career. Of course, the amount of 3.5 billion yen is no small sum, but for a major artist like him, I believed there was a good chance he could recover the funds.
Comparison with Other Artists
For instance, recalling the case of Masao Chiba, he also faced significant debt after the bubble burst but eventually paid it off through concert activities. While it could be said that he brought it upon himself, his career as a singer did not end. I felt that Yazawa would similarly be able to overcome adversity and stand in front of his fans again.
Emotional Ups and Downs
When I first heard about the incident, I was a bit surprised and worried, wondering “What will happen next?” However, considering his past achievements and the support of his fans, I believed he would be able to get through it. The power of music is strong, and many people find encouragement in his songs.
My Personal Experience
During my time working part-time at a judicial scrivener’s office, I encountered various money troubles. Some people were in truly difficult situations. Even so, seeing them take new steps forward often inspired me. Through those experiences, I’ve come to realize that humans can overcome any hardship. As a fan, I was excited to see how Eikichi Yazawa would make his comeback after that incident. It would be a joy to witness his music resonate with many people once again.
