Still, we've picked out what we think are the best of the very best, this time with what Spring had to offer. But do you agree? Feel free to leave comments/discussion on anything we might have missed or something that might have caught your eye!

 i dont care for ED's but i really liked 91 Days'
 
unlike the OP with TK.........#triggered
 
mark my words yuri on ice will have the best OP of the current season!!! #prophet
 

Surprisingly, I don't see Wagakki Band's Valkyrie here... 

Spring 2016 was pretty good in terms of theme songs. I like most (if not all) op/eds of the animes I watched.
COOLEST is #1 tho

I felt like we've known them longer for this to only be their first full length, wow. Will keep an eye and ear out for it!

@beni- this sounds like something you might be into? ^^;
 

Nice thread!
 
I end up always finding a new song to mash the repeat on every few weeks. At the moment, it's this:
 
 
Old favourites I'll keep going back to are GACKT, Nana Kitade, and Stereopony, to name a few. And for the moment.

Welcome to MH!! Lovely to meet and have you here. I spot many goodies in your favourites, especially Plastic Tree! : D Hope you enjoy us and your time here. For any questions or concerns, private message those with a blue/red name! Hope to see you around~

Hey there, I stumbled onto this site having just gotten into UNiTE. and I'm trying to locate and devour all I can! 
Cool site!!

Hello ! I'm Isa, nice to meet you all ! I'm 21 and i'm from Canada.
 
(I'm very bad to introduce myself, sorry...)
 
I'm a big fan of J-rock since around 2008 but I guess it's only now that I decide to join this forum lol  My favorite bands  at the moment are Luna Sea, BUCK-TICK, Kagerou, The god and death stars, Plastic Tree, Lynch, Umbrella, Pierrot, Deadman, Dir en grey, MeteroiD and Malisend... I also like Japanese indie music (THE NOVEMBERS, Lillies and remains etc...) and I also want to discover new bands recently. I like doing arts, going to concerts,  food, dogs, traveling and doing J-rock memes in my free time, lol. I'm really shy and introvert but really friendly so feel free to talk to me !  

I thought it's time to introduce myself, since I'm around for nearly 6 years already ( I'm not posting that often tho ... )
 
well then...
My name is Midori (some might call me Yoma or Tetsu ... ) and I'm a 24 year old from Germany.
I've started listening to japanese Bands in 2009. The first one was Nightmare (right, because of Death Note).
A lot of bands followed...
 
My current favorites are:
 

 
Hm ... I'm really bad at introducing myself ...
 
so ... have some random facts ....
 
 
I'd like to get to know some more people from all over the world !
Sadly I don't know many people with the same interests as me ... so feel free to add me, message me... whatever.
 

or basically those songs you never get tired of 
 
Mine:
 
Lycaon- Psychedelic Jelly
Reign- Club Bunny
Fest Vainqueuer-  namiwa (all of them)
D.I.D- the resolution 2.0
Kameleo- We are kameleo
I can't think of anymore D:

...
You're forgiven.
 
I've been recommended this by @CAT5 too! Clearly I should jump on this! I wasn't expecting it to sound this perfect, omg. I promise I won't exterminate daoko now.

"セックスと嘘" by cali≠gari
stems from "I Would Die 4 U" by Prince

"BELIAL" by SILENT DIFFERENCE
stems from "ピンクキラー" (Pink Killer) by Dir en grey
Homage or Copy: Leaning towards Copy
 
 
 
 
"パラサイトイヴ" by ヴァルナ (Valluna)
stems from "「タトエバ」キミ...ガ...シンダ...ラ" by D'espairsRay
Homage or Copy: Homage
 
 
 
 
 
"Psychedelic Jelly" by Lycaon

Homage or Copy: Total copy.
 
 
 
 
 

Or is it just me?
 

 
Two words: Fighting games.
 
I've been brought up with Soul Calibur and Tekken, but I've always been a button masher on both. I already know and admit to being a pretty poor gamer, even though I enjoy certain genres more than others, but the mechanics of fighting games goes right over my head. I never know what the heck is going on, but I'll still put this in my PS2/PS3 and kill some time on. I may manage to get through the story mode, but never invite me to a multiplayer match! Unless you want the satisfaction of a win. Even my own mum beat me on Soul Calibur 4... ;; A round of applause to every single person in the world who has these kind of games down!
 
I'm so very tempted to spam as much art I can from these games as I can, but I'll try to resist! 
 

TODAY IS SUCH A BEAUTIFUL DAY FOR NEWS.

Back in June Nana Kitade, widely known for singing the FMA ending among several other anime songs and vocalist of the indie band THE TEENAGE KISSERS, announced that she would resume activities after seven years as a solo artist. On 2016/9/19 she organized a night event "Bad Grrrls' Night Out #1" with Hanae as a guest, which was held at Shibuya Clubasia, Tokyo and performed old songs as well as new songs. Her new single called "Bad Babe's Dreamer/Isolation" was sold there for live-limited only. However, it is currently available at her official store, but only shipped within Japan (sadly). Previews of her new songs can be heard from a short collaboration film she did with Kanae Higashi, a fashion/costume artist.
 

 
 
I don't know how many people here follow Nana Kitade so I didn't feel like there was a need to start a topic until there were actual previews.
Nana is a beautiful person and I love her voice, but I really hope she keeps her grunge rock style that was so prominent in TTAK. I can dig that second song though. Other than that, I LOVE her new aesthetic.

I have officially passed on and gone to heaven.
 
I'm insanely excited.

I tried contact lenses for about a week and thought they were a bother putting on every morning for just the six hours in school. I think I just got too attached to my glasses as well so I decided to stay with them after such a short trial run (...not even a trail, my mum had paid for advance packages so I'm still guilty for changing my mind now). I got my glasses when I was in primary school. I've forgotten what year but I can remember being super excited about it that I even managed to convince my mum to get out of school early to go to the appointment. XD After that, it's taken me many years of choosing different glasses to appreciate them. It's only been recently I like wearing them due to having bigger frames (I've always picked small framed glasses).
