I got into diru this past summer because of one of the greatest mangas--Death Note. My cousin went on youtube looking for Death Note stuff, found a Dir en Grey one, we liked em, and we found out about them. I went to Hot Topic (sorry, cheap music, nice shirts) and saw them on the FVT complimation CD, and listened. Then they got in Withering to Death, so I bought it. Then, from that point, I was a DiruNerd. Yes, maybe even quicker than what i drug it out to be.
