OOIOO

Founding OOIOO member Kyoko has passed away. Exclaim points out that her bandmate Yoshimi P-We (also of Boredoms) posted the above photo to Instagram and wrote the following:

This is Yoshimio.
I regret to inform you that my friend, Kyoko has passed away morning on July
19th.
Kyoko came from same hometown as I am . We started OOIOO together. She was
the first guitar player of OOIOO. She left the band to concentrate to cure
her illness but she came to help selling merchandise sometimes to our shows.
She started the band with Itoken who was also her longtime partner.

Kyoko was 183cm tall. She was on her own pace , optimistic and natural blur.
I loved her very much. I do not like to believe she is no longer with us
anymore. I love to see her again.

Rest in peace Kyoko.
