From Unification Church in Japan about the Woo Group

Mr. Tatsunori Okamoto (6000 Couples), who believes that Mr. Myung Sik Woo has a “special mission,” distributed a document called “95+13 Proposals” in September 2003, and was giving lectures on the so-called “Complete Testament Principle,” recruiting blessed families to his “Tribal Association”.

After studying the Okamoto theory and deciding that it was something that could not be ignored, the three of us (Mitsuo Mori, Masayuki Kachi, and Seiji Takeuchi) summarized the errors of his teachings into 23 different points and published a book called Correcting the Errors of the Spiritual Group, Tribal Association! (Kogensha) on January 25, 2006.

Mr. Okamoto’s group tried to refute Correcting the Errors on their Tribal Association homepage, but seeing that they were at a disadvantage, they closed the website and fled.

They disappeared for some time but returned with a different name, the “Second Generation Counseling Corner”, and published The Problems with the Salvation Theory (November 1, 2008) and One Hundred Proposals (March 24, 2009). Their new disguised website is called the “Second Generation Counseling Corner” and they have recently been targeting the second generation who are not aware of this group’s real nature.

Mr. Okamoto uses strategies in common with many anti-UC groups. The three strategies adopted by the anti-UC groups, such as communists and individuals like Mr. Sadao Asami, are as follows:

The anti-UC groups 1Attack Reverend Moon calling him Satan (criticizing the founder), 2Criticize the Divine Principle [referred to as the DP hereafter] as an “immature teaching” (criticizing the DP) and 3Attack the UnificationChurch by describing the “horrible reality of the church” (criticizing the state of the church).

In Mr. Okamoto’s case, he pretends to take the position of a reformist within the UC, but in reality, attacks the church in the same three ways as the anti-UC groups do. His criticisms are, however, more distorted and subtle.

1Mr. Okamoto’s Criticisms of the Founder

Although Mr. Okamoto claims that he has not criticized Reverend Moon, we wrote in the book Correcting the Errors, that he teaches that “Reverend Moon cannot complete the mission of human salvation” (p. 233). Mr. Okamoto admits this and goes on to say that Reverend Moon will resurrect through his second coming as the “fourth Adam” (grandson=Mr. Woo’s illegitimate child) in order to become perfect (which is the reason why they are called a spiritual group), and that the purpose of Reverend Moon’s whole life course was to witness in the fourth Adam as a John the Baptist role.

Those who are deceived by this lie end up losing absolute faith for in “imperfect Reverend Moon” and start following the fourth Adam (a false Messiah) made up by Mr. Okamoto’s group. There is not a more subtle and effective way to make believers abandon their absolute faith in Reverend Moon, who has obtained a victory as the Messiah and as True Parents.

2Mr. Okamoto’s Criticisms of the Divine Principle

The Okamoto theory claims the limitations of the DP. They point out the part where it says “only a part of the new truth” in the Introduction, and insist that the DP has limitations. The theory distorts the Principle of Creation and creates its own theory of the fall, developing an entirely separate salvation theory and a providential view. Once you believe in the Okamoto theory, you abandon the theory of the Human Fall in the DP. The content is similar to the criticisms of the Human Fall made by Mr. Sadao Asami.

3Mr. Okamoto’s Criticisms on the Reality of the Church

Mr. Okamoto criticizes the UnificationChurch from the same standpoint as other anti-UC groups, but even more harshly. Mr. Okamoto’s so-called “Exposition of Completed Testament Principle” is built upon the criticism of the marriage Blessing and blessed families. He even criticizes True Mother and True Children. He claims that the original sin is not cleansed through the Blessing by Reverend Moon and his wife, and that blessed families are a “foundation to prepare to receive the Messiah, and are in a pre-salvation position” (One Hundred Proposals, p. 355), degrading their historical value.

This is why it is essential to correct the errors of the Okamoto theory. It is a problem we cannot ignore. The three strategies of Mr. Okamoto and his group share the same purpose as other anti-UC groups; to destroy the UnificationChurch. The Okamoto theory professes that it is based on Reverend Moon’s teachings. It is hostile to the UnificationChurch founded by Reverend Moon, going so far as to urge blessed families to escape from the “ship inhabited by Satan.” (Note: it refers to the UC.)

They have recently been active in Europe and Hawaii, trying to recruit new blessed families in foreign countries, after facing some difficulties in Japan where the booklet Correcting the Errors is circulating among most church members.

We hope that by studying this booklet and understanding the errors of Mr. Okamoto who belongs to the Woo group, nobody will be victimized by the group.

Along with this booklet, we also recommend the books, Correcting the Errors of the Spiritual Group, Tribal Association and Rev. Sun Myung Moon’s Copyright Part II, both published by Kogensha.

KIRAMUNE MUSIC FESTIVAL 2019 -10TH ANNIVERSARY- EXPERIENCED REPORT! Part 3

~Continuation~

Second half

I tried to remember everything but again, I would write what I could remember. I would be honest, I could only remember few from the second half since day 2 had a big impact to me.

The start of 2nd half was Uncle Bomb! オトコギ！They were so cool singing “te no hira”!!! I was expecting them to sing this, but I was still trembling watching these two ojisan! How should I explain it, but gosh they were so cool!

Next was Trignal, and I was mesmerized hearing a live version of Yasashii koe. One thing I noticed though, Wing's voice is very different on live! Really different! He really sounded like a girl >v<

And next!!! My favourite part! Hiroshi singing Board Game Naked!!! The way he leaned his body backward, his jacket half way off, shaking his body, I just lost it!!! He was so cool and so sexy! SO SEXY! Okay, did I mention that he was really SEXY! Cause he was really SEXY, SINGING AND DANCING BOARD GAME NAKED! Then followed by ichiban hoshi! He was wayyy so cool!!! And did I mention Sexy?

I couldn't remember what happened after that, but it was SparQlew then Yocchin. (Gomen! Since all I could remember was their 2nd half performance during Day 2)

And after that KAmiYU's "マンジ•ガンザナイト" and they were wearing half half jacket again! And at the last part, Hiroshi did the batting, and Miyu was kind of the pitcher. But I didn't know, if Hiroshi sucked in Batting, or Miyu sucked in throwing. I mean, Hiroshi only hit few of them. Compared to KAmiYU in wonderland 4 day 1, Miyu threw the marshmallow and Hiroshi was able to caught it in his mouth in just one try. Anyways, it was so funny, and these two were really enjoying their time on stage.

And I had no recollection again to what happened next, but Kakki then Namidai were after. (Hahaha! Day 2 what did you do to me?!)

CONNECT sang 4 songs here, and I was crying non-stop! They sang on this long stage on both side. Suzu was the one closer to us. I still couldn't believe my eyes and ears that CONNECT had returned to Kirafes! They used the cart and they went around singing CONNECT 2014 Mix. (Lol told you, my day 1 was really mixed up!) Hahahaha!

Next was Miyu! His voice gave me thrill! It was really beautiful! He sang dare kara demo aisareru anata you ni without any accompaniment, and just his voice. I could clearly hear his voice resounding inside the dome! Actually I was mesmerized by his voice that I totally forgot to turn off my blade, since he mentioned in his blog that if he ever sing dare kara demo aisareru youni, we should turn off our blade! But, since the sun already set, you could clearly see the beautiful red ocean, and him in one spot light! His next song, I couldn't remember fully since his last song Mascleta have a big impact. Miyu was freely enjoying singing on the stage, and I was enjoying my time too singing "ちょ楽しい"!

Encore

I think we only did that chants of Encore for about 5 minutes? I couldn’t remember much, but it was so short. Then the screen became blank, we thought they would come out, but a video showing Kiramune's history played and again I couldn't help but cry! Seriously the video would really make you cry buckets!

After that, they came out riding in the big cart, and a special collaboration happened! Like what I really wished they should do! Wing + Chibasho sang CONNECT's Zettai donkan ama noja ku! Followed by Nobu, Yocchin and Yuuto sang Miyu's Banana-na-na Boat! They were so cute!!!! The next collaboration, I couldn't help but laughed so loud when Funky Jungle of Namidai started, and the way Micchan said "I'm King of Kings!" You really couldn't help but laugh! And who was with him, no other than Egu and Horie, actually I wanted Hozumin to be with them since Hozumin is kinda Egu the second! Then followed by Hiroshi, Ryouhei and Hozumin, and they sang Nobu's Bang! Banzai!! I just loved their voices! I liked Hozumin to be with Iwata and Egu, but still him being with Ryouhei and Hiroshi, the three of them just killed it! Suzu, Miyu and Kakki were next and they sang Yocchin's do it while Egu was dancing his favorite dance step on the centre stage! The last one was, I didn't know, I laughed, but I hoped they won't do it again, Namidai and Takuto sang KAmiYU's Tourist Star! The two of them were good (?), lol! but it actually became a laugh to all of us!

They talked about the yellow ranger, they said it was funny at backstage, but when it came out it wasn't interesting at all, in which Egu asked "was he?" And the others were telling him that the yellow ranger was really not funny at all, and Egu retorted that "I didn't meet him backstage, but I think he was okay though" (okay please imagine how Egu said it, the usual Egu!) Micchan mentioned that CONNECT was able to return because it was in dome, and reminded us what they mentioned during Kirafes2014. He also said that he would boast it to his son that he performed in Metlife dome. Here I couldn’t remember if he mentioned it here or during the MC, or during the CONNECT’s MC during Day 2, but he mentioned about the Takoyaki stands, that he was able to eat it! hahaha! Then Suzu mentioned that he was surprised that in just few years that they weren't in Kirafes, Yocchin became really great and he played guitar now during live, also again the SparQlew members. He also mentioned about the moving stage, but I couldn't remember what it was about, but I think it was something about what he mentioned way back in Kirafes2009, since he mentioned that he wanted to have that in one of Kirafes and it really did happen. They mentioned about the weather again, that during their rehearsal the day before, they could see their breath and it was so cold, so Hiroshi said that even though they wanted to see our legs, our health is more important, since it was really cold (lol cause most of the fans really dressed up, and were wearing skirts). Also, I didn’t know who mentioned about sitting at the B Stand, and he was surprised that he couldn’t even see much of the people on the stage.

Then they started to have their ending message, SparQlew first, I think they mentioned the hair again and mentioned their first album and the their new single, even their first live. Then Yocchin, next. I couldn't remember since all I could remember was his ending message during day 2, but he mentioned his new single and also the summer party something in MTV (was it MTV), but I think a music selection of his concern in a program. Nobu was next and I remember here that he announced his single, but he was unsure if it was okay to announce it. Then he asked us if we heard of it but like there was few response, lol! Trignal also had announced their's, especially the Bluray of Trignal Smile Party. Then Kakki, I think he was the one who mentioned about the Versus bluray, lol! I couldn’t really remember at all! Then Namidai after. I remember that they were again bullying him (always). Then he announced his tour and also, he mentioned his guests Hiroshi and Uncle Bomb. He even asked what would happen during his tour when he announced that his guest would be Uncle bomb in his own live tour. Then next was Hiroshi. He also had his message, and announced that he would be performing in ISO Fes, and also announced his music clip Collection. He sounded displeased that he would be seeing his face in those MV clips, and hear his voice, but it was the usual tsundere Hiroshi hahaha! Miyu was next and he also announced his live tour, and his music clip Collection and excitedly told us that he was the one who came out with the title and also participated in cover art. CONNECT was next, and they again thanked everyone for welcoming them back. I couldn’t remember who announced the Fan meeting in Hiroshima. But I could remember the person in front of us said that it was toooo far, but she would still go. lol!

The last two songs were Ever Dream then Get Together. I cried too much! Hearing these two songs again. Especially Get Together, when CONNECT sang their part, the feels!! (Scratch this part, lol! I think this one was during the 2nd day! Oh gosh! My memories are so hazy and jumbled now! Lol!)

I remember that at the end part, some of them were on the big moving stage, and some were at the small moving stage. The big moving stage stopped at the middle stage, while the small moving stage that was coming from the main stage then moved towards the middle stage too. It passed the big moving stage and stopped in front of it. I could remember that some of the members who were at the big moving stage tried to hold the bottom of the stage. When the small moving stage stopped in front of the big moving stage, the big moving stage lifted up, and a little but higher to the small big stage (Lol was that clear?)

Anyways, day 1 was really different, and I was so emotional! Day 2, I did cry but my tension was so high and I think I lost my voice 😂

welp, after Day 1, I went back to the place am staying, and even though I was so tired, my tension was really high since I was excited for Day 2! Day 1 was five hours and half!!!!

-Day 2-

Kiramune Cafe (Part 7)

More pictures from inside the cafe~

I just had to find and take a picture of the KimuRyo table. Aaaahhh so much cuteness!!!

The other side of the cafe~ enjoy (ﾉ^ヮ^)ﾉ*:・ﾟ✧

three of my fave seiyuus in one picture~ ＼(*T▽T*)／

Well...technically, they are in three different pictures...but still...hehe

Trignal~ ♡＾▽＾♡

The photo below is the same as in my previous post. I just decided to include it here since it has KAmiYU and Uncle Bomb in the background.

I don’t seem to have a photo of Sparqlew’s. How did that happen? 〈(゜。゜)

I sincerely apologize (_ _ )

I am also missing a photo of the cafe corner where they have these scrapbooks/notebooks and coloring materials. Each artist/group has their own notebook, where fans can write messages (at least that’s what I assumed. I’m not 100% sure).

I do have a picture of this. Kirafes Chibi characters (how do you properly call them?) from 2012 to 2018. The notebooks were on a table right below.

I can’t decide which year had the cutest version. They’re all cute~

These photos are from the cafe’s outer area. I took them when I was about to leave. I couldn’t fit the whole wall in one photo, so I split it into three.

This was also at the outer area. Have a closer look at the goods. So colorful~

Behind this display is the Osomatsu-san display.

And that concludes my posts about Kiramune Cafe~ (*ˊᗜˋ*)/ᵗᑋᵃᐢᵏ ᵞᵒᵘ*

I do hope I get the opportunity to visit again next time.
