Since all the memes are being mentioned again, I guess I'll "come clean" =P and add some of my own thoughts. I was Harambe, Ditto, and Saishuuuu. Even during times when I found myself occupied with other stuff in my life, I couldn't help myself from memeposting on the forum. Moving on, there was always this pervasive cynicism creep that became really obvious during release dry spells which would lead to reddit-posting and oddball topics. While a bit annoying in retrospect, the discussions were always fun to some degree, whether I was participating or just observing the chaos. // Honorable Mentions: @hiroki @Mihenno @JRD @platy @chemicalpictures @nostalgia @Jun_ @CAT5 @paradoxal @Tetora @Yukimoto @Pretsy @Raburr7 @ricchubunny @fitear1590 @Karma’s Hat @suji @Gesu @kyoselflove @yakihiko I mean the list goes on, but some of the many individuals on the forum I had pleasant experiences with. @Raburr7 and I have had a back-and-forth since March of 2013 trading music and whatnot, and got brief glimpses into what he was doing in his life the past 6~ish years. @hiroki @Mihenno @paradoxal With the occasional other individual(s) (sorry if I've forgotten), we would have dubtrack.fm sessions in the host-kei room, which upon reflection were really cathartic for me. They were always really fun. On a related note, @hiroki for several months straight met up with me nearly every day (if I recall) on that same Dubtrack channel to discuss music, life, etc. Unknowingly, you helped me through one of the more uncertain periods of my life. I can't thank you enough.

M-H will disband at 2021/01/01 due to losing confidence of visual kei since the same date, and their alter-ego band "JROCK ONE" will commence activities they will still search for visual-kei news in the future but will not post anywhere in the near future PS1: M-H people are talented enough to find news, and thus visual kei no longer needs them anymore PS2: that mod, psychonnect_rozen, and vk stan twitter/reddit/facebook groups should be happy for this news PS3: hope that this thread will not be deleted or edited by that mod, who is not willing to delete other threads upon his request --- Sorry I wrote a fucking novel ;V

I swear I felt my heart breaking when I read about this site's time to be buried. While I haven't been active here for years now, so freaking many of you will always have a special place in my heart. While I must admit that I have forgotten so many names, I still remember all IRL meetings, good ol' MSN and Skype chats and all the amusing drama. I have lost so many nights of sleeping when I have had much nicer time chatting with you all, or browsing threads. Even after years I still automatically click the bookmark of this site at least once a month, and it always makes me smile to see so many familiar names. I have gained so many IRL and online, even Facebook friends, even got my first relationship out of this site. 😅 As I said, I have pretty shitty memory so I don't remember names, but I'd like to think that everyone who matters to me, and has helped me with problems and even growing up, you know who you are. I love you all so goddamn much, and I sincerely hope we will stay in contact at least once in a while. And if we happen to come across each other IRL, let's smile and remember all of the lovely happenings we have had all these years. ... Okay, a short shoutout to: @WhirlingBlack, @Karma’s Hat(wtf happened to Disposable duuuuude), @Ro plz, @Jigsaw9, @Biopanda, Val, @CAT5, @paradoxal, pretsy and Craig. There's more of you, but here's a start. See you all ❤️ (DAMMIT, I never hit the 1k msgs that I have been meaning to do for years. I guess time runs out for everything unless it's my grandma, she's a tough lady.)

@colorful人生 I too had some wondaful experiences with pretty much everyone you mentioned haha! i feel like we were all one and the same and had a lot of joyous times on this forum. The forum maybe coming to an end, but there is still J-rock one and so much more so we can always still keep in touch and enjoy each others time doing what we love. So I happpy I met you and some of the other people when I came to this forum ^^

To End MH with a blast and my last post in the news section here's a new promising Band to keep an eye out for y'all. Suuuicide note is the new Band of ex VAN9ISH vocalist Ai which formed on December 3rd. Members: Vocal.Ai -support team. Gt.嫉-shitsu-（ex.篠突く雨） Gt.masaki（ex.the Dice） Ba.翼（ex.DIMLIM） Dr.名無し They released their 1st lyric video Suicide memory on December 3rd as well. They also already announced their 2nd and 3rd digital single to be released on January 13th and February 13th respectively.

Haha, yeah, that was quite a wild ride. Also when it turned out that Kisaki was an abuser and pedo… thanks to MH I lost all the respect I had left for him, lol. ––––– RIP Mh. Took me a while to write something… I know I didn't post much at the end, because I took a break from the internet and especially social media. I don't know if people really recognize me, since I am here only sporadically, despite being signed since a long time. I admit, I like lurking more than actually talking to other people. I still took part in some discussions and being the weird introvert that I am, I usually regretted voicing my stupid opinions afterwards. In the end I didn't delete any posts though, because I feel that's part of forum culture, owning up to the bullshit you say, even if it's cringe and letting it stay on the internet. Some disputes and lovely banter here was funny though and it fills me with a strange fuzzy feeling to know that i have been part of some fandom drama. It's like being part of an old folk tale, you know? Now I wonder how much of the drama will be even remembered in 10 years… Honestly, a year ago or so I believed MH would stay for much longer, since the forum managed to outlive most other de-centralized communities and websites. Seems I was wrong and it comes to an end sooner than I thought. I know there's a new community on discourse, but I have to admit, I don't like social media sites and centralized web hubs and places. I think discourse is a better alternative than having nothing, but MH's UI was miles better. MH also feels so much more personal… I cannot explain it. I just don't really feel the same thing when I go online on sites like reddit, facebook, etc. Everything's quite dull and surface level, particularly on FB. VK fandom communities on other sites are also rather meh… Anyway, before I start writing bullshit, I just want to thank all the people who kept the site alive for more than a decade. I discovered a lot of great bands and music here, some of the discussions were entertaining to read. Hope you are all doing fine, despite the train wreck of a year we had.

It's really touching to get notifications for being mentioned here. I'll definitely keep a lot of hilarious memories from this place as well. If I had to pick one, that one time we all joined forces and exposed Kisaki over his fake band history was definitely a peak. Whether we interacted or not, I hope everyone gets to live their best life beyond this forum. Have a good graduation and departure™ my dear monochrome citizens. Take care and stay healthy.

Is a honor for me to read my nickname here... and I want to thank you and @inartistic so much for talk with me on twitter and trade some comment on something between us, I know that sometime I being a bit "boring" but i like to share my visual-thought with you! I hope that we never lose and continue to share our thoughts! I've never met anyone personally but I can't deny that I've expanded my culture on visual-kei on this forum, read various opinions and thought about everything, you're great! Thanks for everything ^^ / <3

This one. For all time, I'll remember this place, and this song will light up the way to these memories. To me, 15 years ago, discovering this music, and falling in love with the fandom, and these places... ...good bye.

My Twitter is the best bet 🥺 @T0GVR0

Nonsense it's the best time.

Saikou's got a 2-for-1 sale on sentimental posts today I've been listening to Paper Plane a lot because it's my fav B-side on B-men Gahou 2 Electric Boogaloo and because it's an unusually positive entry... I dunno, I'm done with feeling down in the dumps. Not just about MH but 2020 in general. I want to look towards the future that we are all a part of in making. Let's make a better tomorrow, together

@VkBrutaliaNWe wait for you in jrockone Your contributions are very important for fans

Here's some gems I found from my old Photobucket. These have to be at least 10 years old. I reup'd on imgur because Photobucket sucks now. Im too lazy to post east image individually so here's an album I made. https://imgur.com/a/qSVr9Px

one time at sakuracon i walked into a back room and i saw the entire mh staff team peeing on each other.

235 fucking pages of some of the cringiest arguments the internet has ever seen. I'm glad to have been apart of it.

This one for sure...

01_有限要素法.mp3 (huh, this is still there lmao) or

What a chance! To welcome our last user 😧 Glad to meet you hope you will move on with us to J-ROCK ONE !!

The last new member MH will ever have... Thanks for swinging on by in the last few days we have left, enjoy them with us ✌️

Well you're the last. Its the greatest honor a lurker can achieve.

I didnt post mine but i gave it some thought. This really speaks facts for 2020 tbh. Im also not that big on slow songs all that much so this was hard for me .

Let's meet again. I won't say goodbye Even if the world were to end, I want to sing forever. have a good trip

Tomoyasu Hotey dueting with Zucchero... 'nuff said! ❤️

Really loved this band until Kowareta Piano which was a huge flop for me sad they had to cancel their EU tour though, would've liked to see them one last time with this lineup since they're still very good live.

~ at least this isn't about them banging each other or anything ~

I prefer to say my farewell with a bittersweet laught, so I'm choosing "Dance my Generation", since the "End of an era" theme is fitting.
