TOKYO, JAPAN EARTHQUAKE VIDEO: SEBA SURVIVES THE JAPANESE QUAKE & TSUNAMI CRISIS. DISASTER EYEWITNESS REPORT FILM.
The Japan earthquake is the only thing on everyone’s mind right now. Here’s an update: I filmed a video interview with Sebastiano Serafini, who is in Tokyo right now. He talks about surviving the 8.9 magnitude quake while at Avex agency.
The tsunamis and tremors keep coming — and are captured in this video! Seba discusses what’s important to him, and thanks his fans for thinking of him during this disaster.
Come watch the video above and on YouTube. Somehow, Seba manages to look cute and have good hair during the crisis…
I’m keeping in close contact with my Japan comrades (I’m updating on Twitter). There are still tremors every 15-20 minutes, and everyone’s on the edge. But it seems like the worst is over. Most of your favorite Tokyo Goths and J-rockers have been reported safe; fingers crossed.
Come watch the video with sleepless Seba… there are smiles and a shout-out to Yukiro!

JAPAN WOMEN, WARNING ABOUT POTENTIAL RAPE & ASSAULT! TOKYO EARTHQUAKE & TSUNAMI AFTERSHOCKS, WOMEN-ONLY SHELTERS.
Thank you, everyone, for checking in on Tokyo Spookyville: my inbox and Twitter are flooded with your thoughts and prayers. I’m actually not in Japan yet (apologies if there was confusion about that). I’ve been in contact with most of my Tokyo friends, and it’s good news — everyone made it through the earthquake, unharmed. There are aftershocks, and nobody’s getting much sleep. But the tremors should subside soon, and the trains will be running again tomorrow.
Sebastiano Serafini was at Avex agency, surrounded by panicked models and idols. He made it home and just Facebooked, “Still shaking but still fine.”
Yukiro Dravarious writes: “I’m alright, it was scary though! The trains has completely stopped. I was without water and gas for several hours, and then it was almost tornado storms outside as a side effect.” Other friends are on their toes, but still in one piece (Adrien from Tokyo Decadance, Takuya Angel, Kenzo-A, DJ Chihiro and Dee Lee, Sophia from Blood Stain Child, the Cure Magazine staff, Jrockers like Miyavi and more).
However, Midnight Mess Maya has a very important rape warning to women stuck on the streets. There have been reports of men approaching single women, pretending to be police officers who will take them to a safe place. Some are knocking on doors and pretending to be from aid organizations. In fact, these men are potential rapists, trying to take advantage of women stranded during the earthquake crisis.
It’s not a myth; a friend of Maya even saved a girl in Nakano. A guy was grabbing her arm and trying to take her somewhere… Another Tokyo friend confirmed the rape warning: men in Shibuya followed her as she was walking, and pulled her arm. She RAN.
Please help keep these women safe by spreading this rape warning via Tweeting, Facebooking, blogging, etc. Women in Japan, please don’t go into toilets or anywhere with strangers alone. Stick together on the streets. There’s a women-only safety shelter in Shibuya: AJWRC, 211 Sakuraoka Cho, 14-10 Shibuya-ku Tokyo, tel: 0337805245
Let’s do our best to keep our friends in Japan safe. Everyone, PLEASE re-tweet and repost this important info, so that more women are not hurt. Here is the short-link: http://goo.gl/jVXi4
I’ll be Tweeting updates as much as I can. Love and hope… Please feel free to leave comments to share your thoughts.
