I mean, seriously, of all the websites out there—for cat videos, for funny memes, for people who like that boring sport, golf—you chose us. You chose BACon! And for that, I am so, so happy! (´｡• ω •｡`) ♡ It’s more than just a click. It’s you deciding to spend your time with us, and that means a whole lot. I’m just imagining you right now. You’re probably sitting in your room, with your phone or computer screen lighting up your face. Maybe you’re a cosplayer, looking for ideas for your next amazing costume. Or maybe you’re an artist, wanting a place to show off your drawings. Or maybe you’re a gamer, a fellow nerd just like me, who saw “Polyhedra and Pixels” and just knew you had to check it out! (≧ω≦) Whatever brought you here, I really hope you found what you were looking for. I hope you saw all the cool stuff we have planned for BACon Level 8!—the tabletop games on Polyhedra Day and the video game tournaments on Pixel Day! (o´▽o) I love both of them! I’m always inventing new gadgets, so the whole “Polyhedra and Pixels” thing is perfect for me. I’ve even been tinkering with my **SCHAXX** to make it better for tabletop games. (-ω-`) I’m super excited for the Cardboard & Creativity Contest! I can’t wait to see all the cool new games people have made. It’s like you get to see a little piece of their heart in the game. It’s so cool! ＼(≧▽≦)／ And on Pixel Day, I’ll be watching the Tekken tournaments! I’m not a pro, but it’s like watching a real-life anime fight! (ﾉ◕ヮ◕)ﾉ*:･ﾟ✧ It’s all part of our 8 Bit Hero’s Journey, you know? It’s going to be so much fun! We have quests like “Retro Gamer” and “Cosplay Spotter.” How awesome is that?! You get to level up and get prizes! It’s like we’re all in one giant video game together! I’m going to try to finish my quests, too! (⌒ω⌒) It’s all about making BACon a place where you’re not just watching, but you’re actually part of the adventure! We’re not just a convention, we’re a whole world waiting for you to explore! (っ˘ω˘ς ) I’m also really happy that we’re using this event to raise awareness about AIDS and STDs. It’s super important, especially for young people. We’ll have booths with information and people to talk to, but the most important thing is that we’re talking about it and helping people be safe and healthy. (´｡• ᵕ •｡) That’s a huge part of what makes me proud to be the mascot of this convention. ( ´ ▽ )ﾉ So please come join us in Balanga City on December 27 and 28 at Vista Mall! It’s going to be a blast, I promise you! We’ll have so many cool things happening, from special guests to workshops and contests.

20 years and 11 albums later, this band is still producing hits after hits

With eleven albums spanning two decades, One Ok Rock has solidified its place as a staple of Japanese rock music. Known for their fearless experimentation, the band has explored a wide range of genres, including alternative rock, post-hardcore, emo, and pop-punk.

The group began in 2005 when guitarist and leader Toru Yamashita invited his friend Kohama Ryota to form a band with their schoolmate Alexander Onizawa. It took some convincing to recruit Moriuchi Takahiro as the vocalist, but he eventually agreed. The band often practiced around one o’clock in the morning, as studio rentals were cheaper at that time, a detail that inspired their name, One Ok Rock, derived from “one o’clock.”

Between 2007 and 2009, the band released three albums, beginning with Zeitakubyo, which showed strong influence from Good Charlotte. Over the years, One Ok Rock gained steady recognition, performing at major music festivals across Japan. Their major breakthrough came with their sixth album, Jinsei×Boku=, released in March 2013. That same year, they embarked on their first international tour outside Asia.Today, One Ok Rock continues to produce hit songs featured in popular franchises such as Devil May Cry and Rurouni Kenshin. In 2025, they released their 11th studio album, Detox, which has already been certified Gold. You can listen to it now on One Ok Rock’s official YouTube channel.

Tiny Pieces
Detox (2025) by One Ok Rock

Wish I could forget how it felt when you said that it’s over

Staring at your lipstick on the wine glass by the sofa

Had the same fight 20 times in a night, I regret that

It’s not the first time that you left, it’s the first time you didn’t come back

That’s how I spend my days, it’s all I think about

This ain’t a dream, I’m stuck in a nightmare, get me out

‘Cause I’m broken, ain’t nobody gonna fix me (ooh-ooh-ooh)

And I’m choking on the pictures and the memories (ooh-ooh-ooh)

Every time I do it to myself, never seem to learn, now I’m crying for help

‘Cause I’m broken, ain’t nobody gonna fix me

Yeah, you broke me into tiny pieces (oh, oh)

I can see the ghost of your headlights fade as you drive away

Took the one thing that I can’t live without for a single day, oh, no

Had the same fight 20 times in a night, I regret that (I regret that)

It’s not the first time that I prayed, it’s the first time I prayed you come back, oh

‘Cause I’m broken, ain’t nobody gonna fix me (ooh-ooh-ooh)

And I’m choking on the pictures and the memories (ooh-ooh-ooh)

Every time I do it to myself, never seem to learn, now I’m crying for help

‘Cause I’m broken, ain’t nobody gonna fix me

Yeah, you broke me into tiny pieces

Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh

Yeah, you broke me into tiny pieces

Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh

That’s how I spend my days, it’s all I think about

This ain’t a dream, I’m stuck in a nightmare, get me out

Oh-oh, oh

‘Cause I’m broken, ain’t nobody gonna fix me (ooh-ooh-ooh)

And I’m choking on the pictures and the memories (ooh-ooh-ooh)

Every time I do it to myself, never seem to learn, now I’m crying for help

‘Cause I’m broken, ain’t nobody gonna fix me

Yeah, you broke me into tiny pieces

Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh

You broke me into tiny pieces

Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh

Oh yeah, you broke me into tiny pieces
