i love you guys

Well that ends the era of Jrockdrama/JRD. Someone else can take my mantle and run with it if you have the money. They make Golden Bomber masking tape. Wtf. Also got surprised with Jin-Machine rarez I didn't know existed. It's like you have to go to EVERY tour final to get a CD with unreleased songs. Some of them are really good, some of them are like them fucking being dumb. Also MiMiC loves giving me merch and chekis with MiO. It's like they know. Also MiO writes all of their songs.

Visual Kei Two launching soon. Check it out here

i just wanna tell yall how much i fucking love you because yall are so tolerant (most of the time anyway) of me no matter how shitty my opinions are and are willing to have a civil discussion instead of just pushing me away meanwhile anime fandoms are shit and so is cancel culture, literally fuck cancel culture in the ass btw

Me trying to explain VK to a friend:

I don't fuck with Thanksgiving, but I definitely fuck with giving thanks! So I appreciate yall, even those of you who may hate or dislike me. Yeah, I know I'm old, cringy and embarrassing, but I could give a fuck. Yall enjoy yall day!

VK is my safe space, I just realised I always come back to it when I'm at my worst.

I nearly forgot what today is... It's my VK fan anniversary! Today marks 4 full years of being a fan. It's not about the time I've been a fan for, it's more about everything that makes me so grateful to be a part of this community and to have accidentally stumbled upon this music scene all those years ago. I've made lasting, deep friendships, I learned to become a nicer, empathetic person, and I've been given so much and have barely started to give back. Above all, my hobby brings me so much joy and I'm forever thankful to every bandomen, big or small, for making music that makes me (simply put) feel. And of course, to the lovely fanbase that has treated me so well over these past years. My passion hasn't wavered in the slightest, even from when I first became a fan. I feel like I'm in for the long run and I'm glad I have such a wonderful community in it with me. Thank you.

I'm an ordinary person who has been surrounded by tons of amazing people for my entire life. Too talented and skilled that one would easily feel inferior to them. But I don't take it that way. I'd rather say I'm incredibly lucky that these kinds of people exist in real life, not someone cool on TV or in the book, but someone I know personally and very close to me. For example: My maternal aunt - She runs a long time established food business (an industry level) that has been around for many decades. Her net worth is approximately $100m. One of the celebs in this country. My neighbor - A big family who I have known since our grandpa's era that lives only 10 meters away from my house. They run a construction and land business for many decades. Their net worth is ~$30m. My best friend forever's younger brother - A YouTuber (game caster) who has been in the scene since 2012 when only few people knew about monetizing on YouTube. So he is one of the top YouTubers here. His net worth has just reached $3m recently. He is only 26. My high school junior - He is friends with the YouTuber above (26 years old). He has been through a lot in life. He is a developer who runs a software company at the international level. His income is ~$100k/mo. Lately, he and his team launched a cryptocurrency and listed it in Binance and several exchanges. Now it's in the top 60 with a $200m marketcap. (Not gonna mention the name as I'm not promoting it.) Any many more... too many to list all of them. Having these kinds of people around immensely inspires you to do something in life rather than sticking with lazy, passive, and unmotivated people who don't have any certain goals in life. What they have in common is they built up their wealth from scratch literally, not inherited. No supportive daddy and mommy. This is cool af honestly. There is a saying that the books you read and the friends you have can tell what you'll become in the future. Personally, I've been working on several web apps. Not a startup but a one-man team. I've come to the point where I'm not behind anyone in the field anymore (~30,000 hours of practice). I don't know everything, but from where I am, it's not difficult to learn anything new. My flagship project got tons of positive feedback in a world class developer community. So I'm kinda relieved that it's not gonna be a flop. Even if it is, I'd build something better instead of quitting. I'm totally inspired by the people around me.

I finally got a job!

Just wanna share a little happiness with this status update! After completely cured from my mental illnesses in October, I just restarted from 0 and had kept searching for a job! Honestly it was a really really frustrated process, with no any responses from all the resumes I handed out, no matter on the internet or the real papers! But today morning, I finally got a full-time job! I think this will be my best Christmas present! I almost fuckin' cry on the way back to the place I live... Hope everything will turn better, no matter the job or next year! Merry Christmas for everyone read my status, and I wish you all have great 2020! ^^

In my few years of being a visual kei fan, I've talked a lot of shit, but I've also found my truest friends along the way. You have been with me through it all, and accepted me for who I am. You brought me back up when I was down. You even gave me a second chance when I was coming back from a downward spiral. And for that, I'm grateful. Thank you for being my friends. ♥

I'm still not over NICOLAS giving us rubber chickens to use during the live since we weren't allowed to shout and member call fsdifhndfda there's a reason i love these men

Holllly shit, folks. Since April is gonna be largely a stay-at-home kinda month (at least around here), expect probably my largest upload binge in years in just a few weeks! Gonna be pretty fuckin awesome!!

Heads up that I'll be deleting all of the links to the stuff I uploaded here tomorrow. This is to make room on the current Mega account that I have for transitioning to JRO, and since I'm gonna be swamped until New Years, I thought I'd get it over with tomorrow. Just thought I'd give a little heads up before I eradicated everything lol.

This must be Mikoto (Zigzag Vo.)'s dog.

idk who needs this, but...Hey you. Yeah you. I know today might be hard and you're just existing, but you're important. Don't be too hard on yourself and take it a day at a time. Love you.

By the end of the summer, there will be no more uploads from me. I've been called a bitch, elitist, e.t.c. I spend my hard earn money to share bands I love with you guys. I've been with TW/MH since the beginning, some of you even have my personal cell number. I'm trying a new twitter @nameinbiography I'm not very social-able. You can also catch me in discord. I'll still be here giving my opinions or fan girling or stuff. I don't dislike any of you, some of you even make me laugh with your wits and I respect you for it. I'm very approachable so don't be afraid of me cause I'm more afraid of you.

wondering what happened to that ban on politicsposting my kings and female kings 👀

pour one out for 06/07 heidi. and this song in particular

no one: literally no one: MH suddenly:

MH Twitter is back! Follow us to get news updates on your favorite bands, plus exclusive reviews of releases, the hottest topics, and more! https://twitter.com/mhjrockforum

Countdown begins. It's been a great 10+ years giving you guys rarez and such. I know most of you really appreciate it. I love how you all collectively think I was a huge bitch when you DMed me, but got the total opposite. I'll still be here, but I won't be uploading. There's a tie for 3rd so you guys get 4 releases thing. Also if you wanted to play my guessing game, it'd be fun, and you can a list of rarez I have that you can choose from.

I'm considering making a blogspot for Visual Kei downloads, a-la evil-en-lucifer, because I'm gonna be real, MH is probably gonna die and those 10+ years of hard to find vkei downloads could disappear. So I was wondering if any old-school collectors would want to help with my project. I have a lot of Vkei CDs I inherited from my ex who doesn't like Vkei anymore, so I can start it off, but this is gonna have to be a group project.

please help, i think my son is addicted to rarez. he's stopped caring about anything else. he hasn't showered in weeks, he just sits in that room looking at zenmarket all day. he punches holes in the wall whenever a sniper bid denies him a live-distributed demo tape from a show attended by 10 people at some venue that closed its doors in 2001. at first i was so proud because i thought he was taking up learning french, but as it turns out he was just naming old japanese goth twink boy-bands? what do i do?

Regardless of what you may think or feel about what is going on in the world, the fact is that The Reaper is very busy in the Earth right now. Many people are dying. Indeed, many people are dying all the time, but scarcely in a fashion such as this. So if you have any beef or petty squabbles with anyone, do yourself a favor and get over that bullshit. Let that shit go. Forgive whomever you need to. Ask for forgiveness if you need to. Have those tough talks that you've been avoiding. Remind your loved ones of how much you love them. Show mercy to those who've betrayed or fucked you over, because no doubt you've wronged other ppl before too. None of us know how much time we have here, so might as well leave with a clean conscious or at least give others a chance to. Make right what you need to. I'm talking to myself as well. Shalom~

VK truly lost its edge over the past decade and some; a similar outbreak in 2002 would've already spawned like four similar-looking bands titled ♕VIЯ'US releasing their debut single 『Infect...me』(c/w "37.7"; first press bonus track "delirium of influenza") on the day of the cancelled gazette first live under matina

I can die peacefully knowing i finally met @Zeus.

Visual kei without context (See photo)

Broke: This is a Dir en Grey ripoff Woke: This is a Kuroyume ripoff Ascended: This is a Japanese glam metal ripoff

Just found out that one of my blog posts was used as a reference in the J-fash Wiki so I think I can call myself a credible Visual Kei historian now

a 100% flawlessly rendered 3d model of your favorite japanese jrocker duking it out with an absolutely AWFULLY rendered version of himself tekken 3 style

always find it weird when people insist this "era" of vk is deprived of talent, every era of vk up to now has been filled with talentless hacks, you just don't remember them because they were so unworthy of recollection that your brain basically filtered them out. there was no "golden era" where every band was good, you just don't have an eidetic memory that allows you to vividly recall hundreds of singles by mediocre knockoff bands you listened to in 2010

Rapunzel routine.

I fucking hate how I can't create an account on anything anymore without putting in a phone number. You shouldn't need to have to pay for a fucking phone service just to fucking use twitter and facebook. Oh and burner number apps don't fucking work with twitter

80s jpop is 🔥 why did it take me so long to get into this stuff?

Why do all these new Vkei bands dress like Kpop rejects? I guess asking your friend who knows how to sew or a mistu/Tsunagari doesn't work anymore. Go big and flop like Xodiack, at least that's an attempt at visual kei artistry. Remember it's us gajins fault for not buying their digital mini.

HIZAKI Grace Project?? ?? With Juka? Or Hikaru? Or KAYA???

Everyone! vkgy has an interview with 90s inspired VK band luvielle. Please RT/like if you don’t mind! https://twitter.com/vkgy_/status/1234840966076432384?s=21

vk's first victim to the corona virus...

I post so much shit in the d*mlim threads while in reality I want them to get picked up by a decent vk indie label after they wrap up that tragic little overseas tour and get given some nice outfits and a couple support members so that ratsu would finally stfu about living his most pristinely authentic life and could focus solely on composing and producing instead of being a clown on IG

Who the fuck decided that for architecture or design to be "modern", it has to have no curves or intricate decorations, and has to be completely made up of straight lines and right angles? Bruh if the future is jut a bunch of squares, I wanna live in the past

If サンドイッチで１２０分？ isn't playing at my funeral then I'm not going

PSA: If you have issues or complaints that you want to take up with the forum, then let us (the staff) know. Bitching and complaining in private doesn't help anything, and closed mouths don't get fed. However, if you're just upset because other ppl share opinions and perspectives that you don't like. Then you need to take a good look inside and ask yourself why you're so pressed about the opinions of random strangers on a damn J-rock forum. Alternatively, you can GROW THE FUCK UP. Some of yall are way too old for this nonsense.

I am no longer a teenager. Here's hoping this next year of my life is better than the last!

Bro I got this new DIMLIM song on repeat!!! I almost feel bad for all the shit I've talked about this upcoming album. It's still too early to tell, but these guys may have lowkey fulfilled one of my dreams of a fucking math/VK band. Crazy.

Call me a n00b all you want, but when someone talks about 'mixing' making or breaking an album I am borderline retarded. I like what I like mmkay.

I've arrived back in the States after two very fun and eventful weeks in Tokyo. Leaving was so hard, but I've made it my New Years resolution to start planning to move to Japan permanently this year. I haven't cried this much in a long time.
