The Irrational Downfall of Park Geun-hye
shiroihana and 4 others reacted to Zeus for a post in a topic
Quite a long read, but it's pretty shocking stuff and a good place to start if the South Korean presidency scandals are new to you. There's so much juicy stuff I'll end up reposting the whole article if I don't cut myself off. I just copied context & some juicy bits. http://askakorean.blogspot.nl/2016/10/the-irrational-downfall-of-park-geun-hye.html There's so much to this I can't even... -
4 pointsWow, yall been in this thread trippin'. How about EVERYONE calm down just a tad? I could give a shit about PT or Ryu's solo (sorry benibb), but there's no need to get excited to the point that you feel you can be insensitive. The quality of plastic tree's recent output is certainly up for debate, but do be mindful that your opinion on the matter is not fact and that others will feel differently.

4 pointsHere we go again with this "real fan" bullshit. Supporting a band does not mean we can't be critical of their output. Not enjoying certain music is not the same as not understanding it. Seriously, how hard is it to understand this? As for Pura, there have been glimpses of great music here and there over the last few years, but overall I feel like their music has stagnated since perhaps Donna Donna. Their last singles do sound extremely similar to one another. It feels lazy. This sample of Ryutaro's solo album, even though it's extremely short, has already sounded fresher than any of their last release, which says a lot.

I hope they find him, but the fact that they put it out there that he owes his band members money, it sounds like he's gonna be in trouble when they do. Also HE HAS A CAT. HAS ANYONE CHECKED ON IT? HAS ANYONE TAKEN CARE OF IT? Just real talk here. His cat, guys. -

Anyone doing Inktober? Let's share!
CELESTIAL CIEL and 2 others reacted to orange~ for a post in a topic
I know that I need deadlines to push the best out of me. I get stuff done otherwise too, but having less time to finish things does wonders for my work. No matter how "artificial" those deadlines might be. I guess part of the reason is that I have to commit more time to painting in a shorter timespan, so I reach a certain flow state easier. When it comes to challenges like inktober, you know it's only one month, so that may make it easier to push yourself to work every single day, where as normally many might take days off. Then there is also the community aspect to inktober too, which I love. Having said that, I didn't take part in Inktober, I knew from the start of the month I was gonna be too busy for this : / Respect to you guys for going through it! plastic_rainbow. I've been following your stuff on tumblr and you've got some amazing pieces done! ^^ Hakoniwa, I like your stuff too. That portrait with the sunglasses is my favourite. Mario's expression is pretty sinister too -

KRAD has departed from 輪郭-rinkaku- Records
inartistic and one other reacted to emmny for a post in a topic
wasn't rinkaku their own label? im guessing it was some offshot of bloom, unless they decided to go independent after shedia. so either they're going independent or moving onto a better label, and im guessing the latter based off this hehe (the new ohp is a lot nicer than their past one) -

Halloween Visual Kei/Jrockers Cosplaying
platy and one other reacted to plastic_rainbow for a post in a topic
Was thinking about making this thread sooner or later~ Seen any cool Halloween costumes from visual kei bands this year? Or any costumes from previous years? Since October is already almost over, let's not limit this thread to Halloween only. Any jrockers cosplaying in general is also welcome! So please share all your favorites! ^0^ I'll start of with a few of my favorites: Plastic Tree, from left to right: Akira as Jack Skellington, Kenken as Cat Woman, Ryutaro as Edward Scissorhands, Tadashi as Emily from Corpse Bride Kenken without the mask, now that's hawt Ryutaro's side band Neji as jiangshi vampires. Vivalet, Mary as Cloud Strife Scapegoat, Haru as jiangshi vampire. Scapegoat, Sayula as Alice, Layha as Mad Hatter. BLESSCODE, Ryo as Chucky from Child's Play. Now post away! I'm sure there are many more out there~ -

NekoHime and one other reacted to TokyoCinderella for a post in a topic
Hey, thanks! That makes me happy to read There was a time when we had the entire discography translated -- but when we looked back after getting a better understanding of Jojo's lyric-writing style, we decided there was a lot of junk. Unfortunately we lost the spark of motivation to get back to revising everything. BUT, I did bring a new mod on recently who should be helping get the site back up to speed when they settle in. And I'll keep trying to update when I can, but alas, life. -
2 pointstfw music will NEVER be as hype to you again as when you first started branching out & getting into it

DIR EN GREY Confirmed for PORNO ULTRA EXPRESS 2016
Muskito and one other reacted to IGM_Oficial for a post in a topic
For a moment, I thought Kyo was about to do a JAV. -
2 pointsBecause every time this happens it ends up that one of the members ran away and didn't tell anyone ended up sick at someone's house for a few days and is fine had family issues he needed to deal with They almost never end up dead in a ditch somewhere. This sounds a lot like #1, especially with the loans business. They aren't getting that money or equipment back because if I were him and I needed money I would have pawned your shit a long time ago Himitsu Kessha Codomo A style. Hopefully they get some answers but a lot of these bands seem like they walked into a discord chat and typed "lf guitarist 4 vk" and picked the first person to reply who could play scales. If they don't even ~know~ him that well it might be over.

1 pointHi everyone! I've never posted on a forum before so here goes! I go by ghata, I'm a 25-year-old guy from California. I work in the family business as an ISP. I got into Japanese music when I started watching anime when I was 13 listening to all the intro and closing songs! I like just about any genre of music but VK is definitely my favourite. My favourite bands are Versailles, Girugamesh, Dir en Grey, The Gazette, and many more! If I'm not listening to music I'm trying to play it on guitar (and hopefully piano and violin one day) I also practice Wing Chun(kung fu) when i can. I play lots of video games and watch any anime I can get my hands on. I always wanted to find a community of other people who liked Japanese music as much as I did that I could talk to, and I'm really excited about this forum! Thanks for reading! Please feel free to message me anytime

The Reverend reacted to TokyoCinderella for a post in a topic
@DisposableCrap, the publisher made it private. I have the direct link but they've changed the settings, and I never downloaded it. Bummer. @The ReverendThank you, seriously, it's easy to not realize (or forget) that people do actually use the site and it always makes me really happy to know that it's been of some use, somehow I think that phrase is actually in Ura Cinderella, too (but I'm a megasloth and can't be bothered to pull it up). His pacing saying it in Tokyo Cinderella is really weird, though, huh. -
