A missed connection is a type of personal advertisement which arises after two people meet but are too shy or otherwise unable to exchange contact details. 
 
For example:
If you happened to miss your chance at gettting that guy/girl's attention after staring at them for a while If after getting hammered and randomly making out with some dude/chick at a party, but forgot to get their number afterwards  Locking eyes with some beautiful person at a red light, only to have them drive away  
Hehe feel free to share. These are fun to read, and you'll laugh about your goof up later. I promise.
 
I'll start.
 
To the cute asian girl with the VIP GazettE shirt I said hello to at Mitsuwa marketplace in Arlington Heights the other day:
 
Yo.
 
I wanted to talk to you and get your number, but I fucked up lol. I thought I did a badass job with my opening line, and me wearing my Dogmatic Tour Shirt that day too, but I still choked.
You looked interested too, with the "Oh hey! We Match! response. So why did I walk away?
 
Ohhhhhh god, I'm an idiot.
 
Hopefully you like JPop too, and I see you at the Perfume concert on the 30th.
I promise to not fuck it up again.

RAINDIA new single "トラッシュジュウス (trash juice)" will be released in 2016/11.

2016/27/07 R.I.P AvelCain </3
 
3 attempts till this neck thing worked..kinda
 

Yaaaas love this Lyrics ! >3< 
 

Really glad that you guys are enjoying these! Thanks for the comments~
In just a day or two, AvelCain will disband very shortly. Still, I'll continue to go through the rest of their discography. ^^
 
new:
蘇-よみがえり-/Yomigaeri
 
彩虜-あやとり-/Ayatori
 
PSYCHO-サイコ-
 
Also, here's the interview I read where karma mentions how most of his lyrics are written in the girl's perspective, but not all. The link was also posted somewhere in the AvelCain thread sometime before.

Here's the thing about vk news though: there's no 'original source'.
 
For major and relatively well known bands you can rely on visunavi, NAVER, various 'matome' and news purveyor accounts on Twitter. But otherwise it's down to stalking thousands of bandmen - something which I have literally attempted on my main Twitter account. The result was me getting spammed with 30 tweets every 10 seconds, and THEN I had to sift through the crapload of awkward selfies and useless tweets talking about weather and food. I don't recall, but maybe 0.01% of the feed was useful news? In any case I abandoned that account shortly after because it was unusable.
 
There are also other avenues like LINE accounts, bandmen's ameblo, and 2chan as mentioned. Or you can try typing 始動 and 解散 into twitter search and refresh it every 10 seconds.... if you have that much time. In any case, what a lot of people don't seem to notice (and this is the point @filth_y was making) is that Trombe also posts news that don't "officially" exist on the Internet except maybe, in a bandman's private reply to a fangirl's tweet (I've witnessed this at least twice), or as a casual afterthought in a label staff's ameblo post. (In the latter case, I talked to a band's shikiri and even she wasn't aware that the band would be releasing a CD that day..). Yes, some MH members may have done this before - but to do it consistently for an insane number of bands is a whole different animal.
 
All of this aren't even considering the facts that: (i) these news are in Japanese, so let's not trivialize it as as copy-and-pasting. Translating and formatting it into a news post is a bitch if you consider the volume of news Trombe puts out; (ii) Trombe posts news of bands he doesn't even care about on a regular basis, some of whom comprising members that no one here has even heard of, much less having an interest to follow and post news of.
 
I'm on no one's side at this point. None of this is a defense for what Trombe did, nor is it a suggestion that he should be immune from punishment if he has contravened the rules. I just wanted to provide a corrective to previous comments suggesting that by picking 1 or 2 bands each we will communally be able to cover the ground that Trombe did, as if it was as easy as sitting together and doing some Ctrl C+V while having cereal in front of your computer. Let's just say I'm not that optimistic, because I can't imagine someone, or even a group of competent and extremely free people, going to the lengths Trombe did. Hopefully more people can appreciate the scope of the dirty legwork he has done for MH ("appreciate" as in "understand clearly", not "prostrate yourself"). And before any accusations come my way: I have contributed news of bands I like (including translating full-length interviews of them), and will happily continue to do so. Let's just see what happens.

I am not his pet, nor his friend, nor anything to him at all. 
 
I am posting in this drama thread for the simple reason that VK news is the main reason why I am here on  MH, and thanks to this drama, again, VK news are going to vanish little by little 
 
I don't know what happened and I don't care AT ALL
 
Like it has been said before, even when you follow 10000 twitter bandmen, you can even keep track of everything, since not everything is posted there and there are like 20 messages/minutes. So yes the fact that Trombe will no longer post in this section is a huge problem for me and probably for many others who DO care about your so-called "no1cur about bands"
 
I get it that stuff happened, shit happened either and I get it that Trombe nor anybody in this forum should have the right to do whatever they want, that's a fact, still this one thing will have an impact on a very important section of this forum.
 
And yes, it is an important section, just look at the number of answers, even people nobody knows are posting atm to say how it will change MH
 
So of course you are all able to say whatever you want  and think whatever you want about Trombe and the people who kinda "support" him, but if your throw you egos away for a moment, you will agree with other people who say he is a huge contributor in this forum and not having him will clearly change a part of MH.

maybe I should show myself too XD
 

Fucking family occasions. At least I have an excuse to look like a waiter ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
 
 

That's so nice! o: Aweosme work!

Could I request maye Yomigaeri / Psycho / Hasami & Gesshoku? .3. 

 

Since AvelCain will be officially disbanding very soon I decided that I'd translate some of their lyrics. As far as I know, the fuckyeahavelcain on tumblr are the only ones who have translated their lyrics so far.  And if I'm gonna be honest, they're not exactly the best...
 
Therefore, I bring you my own translations! Can't say that I'm that great at translating lyrics either, but I try to be faithful during my translations~ I will update this thread each time I translate more songs.
 
So far I have translated three:
囁/Sasayaki
 
自責/Jiseki
 
籠目歌ノ呪縛/Kagomeuta no jubaku

oh my, these guys.

Rose Noire new photobook "Monumentum" will be released through Starwave Records official web-shop and at their live since their free one-man live at Kagurazaka TRASH UP!! at 2016/08/21 (148mm×210mm, 72 pages, 3,000yen, limited 50)

I pity people who think video games in general are for kids.
Like those oblivious parents who bought GTA5 for their 10-year-olds.
Or like those annoying older people who tell me I should "stop playing video games, grow up, look for a husband and have babies"
(including various relatives, co-workers, and my former boss)
fuck off, don't tell me what to do with my uterus

Remember to shake hands properly, look into their eyes and smile a lot! I hope it goes great!
 
(EDIT: I mean... I did those things, said some idiotic stuff and blabbered like I always do when I am nervous and was just plain awkward. Aaaand I got into a school, their loss. ;PPPP)
 
I... think I have a date on saturday. 

you're literally in a forum primarily dedicated to visual kei
