    Do it. Prostitute out your head. I vaguely remember one of my friends saying that some guy propositioned her for the same thing and it was totally some weird fetish thing... no idea if she took him up on it. Can't someone like that just go to school to be a hairdresser or do the boners get in the way?

    I kind off said yes. [He said If I say yes now he pays 1000. FUCK HAIR GET MONEY]

    is that true,visual kei is bad viewed in japan?

    A friend of mine who lives in Japan still and is in the scene told me that's it's bad viewd cause of the girls who prostitutes thereself to attend at all concert ect.
    Also she told me thats some already start at the age of 14 to buy Lolita Dresses / touring the band ect. and if they are over 18 they get stuffed in School Uniforms and marketd as under 17 lol.

    Wouldn't call it a lie really since in Korean the girls are prostitute thereself for KPop aswell [Saesang Taxis and all this lol] 

    Another reason might be the bad news sometimes [Drugs ect.] which gives a bad light to the scene aswell. 
     


  8. When people be like:
    It isn't brave to come out as Transgender and it's so unimportant to show it in the TV and to educate people about.

    Yeah bitch, u stupid motherfucking shithead.
    It's so unimportant cause it's for sure so fucking easy to out your self as Transgender in a world where u get killed for it - hated for it and other things. 
    So ckn unimportant. 

    Gawd I can't with such people.

    I think Ains bands do fairly well, especially Diaura, but I don't think they're popular enough that they even cross a common Japanese person's mind.

     

     

    From what I've heard, mega-popular groups are things like Golden Bomber and any of the uber bands from the late 90s (Kuroyume, Luna Sea, X, Pierrot, Buck-tick, anything associated with Diru, etc). Aside from them, I don't think anyone really cares :staru:

    DEZERT are only known in the vk scene (they could be considered famous there though, they are doing very good for a vk band).

     

    All bands listed in your post are bands that 98% of the "normal" japanese population are unaware of. 


    I know. that's V-Kei in generally has a bad view in Japan and is small & unpopular. 
    I mean only in the scene anyway.

    Also yeah Bands like X Japan / LunaSea ect. are really famouse in Japan.

    Here's some hard data from visunavi, twitter and ameba.

     

    Their followers on social media might be a good metric. Athougth Len from TBS has 94K followers on twitter (even more than dir en grey and almost as much as much as lunaseaofficial :O), it was due to his rescued kitten Kotetsu going viral. So individual band members might have more fame, but that fame won't necessarily extend to the rest of the band.

     

    Paradeis and Piass are no longer active, but judging by their follower count on their old ameba accounts, they all floated around the 2K number.

     

     

    Live data:

    • Elysion's first one-man will be at Ruido K3 (capacity: 150), but the largest venue they played at is Holiday Shinjuku which houses 450 people.
    • THE BLACK SWAN's biggest one man was at Tsutaya O-West (capacity: 600) and they regularly play at ~300 capacity live houses
    • Liphlich's biggest one-man was at Ebisu Liquidroom (housing a capacity of about 900)
    • The biggest venue Grieva has played at was Makuhari Messe (10,000) for V-Rock Fes 2016
    • Scapegoat's many one-man's have played out their finals in ~300 capacity live houses, but they have been a part of bigger events at O-EAST (1300)
    • UNDER FALL JUSTICE seems to centralize their activity around HOLIDAY NEXT Nagoya (capacity: 300)
    • Kuroyuri to Kage headlined a live last year at Shinjuku LOFT (500)

     

     

    Social Media Data:

    • THE BLACK SWAN
      • Twitter: 5795~10.6K (not including len's 94K followers)

    • Paradeis
      • Ameba: 929-3046
    • THE PIASS
      • Ameba: ~1268 (Takayuki only)

    Thanks so much!
    The data about the Live Houses are really nice, never knew about there cap. It's to know this now. 
    Would have never guessed Grieva played at such a huge venue already [Even if it was a Festival] 

    About the Social Medias:
    I guess Ameba is more reasonable when it comes to popularity in Japan then Twitter[Which is probably worldwide more deciding?] 

    Thanks for the answers all ! :)
