In February 1991, bassist Tetsuya (then known as TETSU) recruited vocalist Hyde (then known as HIDE), guitarist Hiro and drummer Pero. Together, they formed a band and named themselves L’Arc-en-Ciel. A year later, after gaining popularity in their hometown of Osaka , Hiro left the band on June 12, 1992. Tetsuya then convinced his friend Ken to quit his university studies and join the band as guitarist. However, Pero then left the group on December 30, 1992. The following year, Sakura joined as L’Arc-en-Ciel’s new drummer.
