    I'm from Canada, but I live in Toronto. I know there are a lot of Canadians on this forum, but not sure how many are in the western provinces. 

     

    I've met quite a few Japanese music fans around here, although not that many specifically into VK. Japanese language classes are the easiest place to find them, in my experience. I'm too shy to initiate conversations at concerts, so it was helpful that I had to talk to the people in my class to pass. XD

    You are lucky. Japanese language classes here are full of otakus but barely anyone (esp for guys) are vk fans lol. I'm Japanese anyway so I can't really go to jp classes in the first place XD

    I live in Alberta, and I like to think I pretty much know everyone here who likes VK that's over 20 (and there's not that many of us lol) Whether I actually like them or not, that's an entirely different story ; )

     

    I have a group of about 6 friends that's into VK about as much as I am (mostly older bands, around the ten year mark) and have been for at least a decade, but it's hard to meet anyone new with the same interests in cowboy land, so I feel ya.

    I get what u mean haha not every fan is friend material, I admit a fair portion of big vk fans (including me) are weird in various ways -_-  How'd u meet your friends? I'm assuming at a concert?

    Hi everyone! ٩(๑❛ᴗ❛๑)۶
    I'm just wondering if there are other VK fans in Canada? (well, Vancouver to be precise)
    The sad thing is, even though I got a bunch of online Vk  buddies on facebook/twitter, literally everyone is either in the Europe area or in the States...absolutely noone remotely close to me or even in the same country.  Ofcourse, the Vk page on facebook are filled with users far away as well smh.
    It'd be great if I had some fellow fans living nearby to chat or get together once in a while so I'm just taking a chance and asking here~ (>.<)

    Yes I do see the odd goth/punk style folk here who "might"like VK as well but I do not have the balls to start a convo with a stranger on the street LOL. 

     

    On a similar note, do you guys have trouble finding VK friends nearby or am I just in an unlucky area?

    As a Japanese  who lived in Japan for 1/3 of my life, I'll have to say it's not that  Japanese men dislike it but it's BY FAR more popular amongst girls.  The reason being is Japan is quite narrow minded (yeah hard to believe isn't it?) when it comes to a persons appearance or interests...and VK is generally classified as overboard.  Guys just won't be driven to the extent where they want to be in a Vkei band or dress up VK outside just because they're interested .  Not to mention (I guess this applies for all countries but) it's 100% understandable that a straight guy feels off seeing guys in heavy makeup and flashy clothes singing heavy music.  Therefore it's natural that the majority of Japanese fans are girls...in fact I don't have a single Japanese guy friend that's very into VK in comparison to 30+ girls. 

    I guess in the end the music itself is likeable, but guys who like it are well aware of the negative views they recieve so they don't even bother with anything VK. Perhaps if the music was more mainstream like in the 90s/early 2000s then the fanbase would be more even amongst genders.
