Let’s be honest here, I don’t think it takes much to do this:

But guys!!!

He doesn't show off his tattoos so much anymore, which is a big shift.

 

Uroboros era was a great look all around with the mandatory wallet chains and Toshiya in general.

Toshiya looks like he walked off the the set of a gangsta rap video circa 1995. Why is Kyo’s belt around his knees?

I hope for the next album they don’t drop any singles or samples at all. 

Remember when he went bald just for the Lotus PV?

Kyo fucking stop it dude

Is that stack of TVs in the Ranunculus PV playing a bunch of their past PVs?

What tragedy shall befall the band and delay it indefinitely once again?

Looks like he hasn’t been eating. 

Yes, Satsuki, you are indeed “exited”.

What I don't understand is how small bands like DOF and Dimlim can have much better mastering for their records then one of the biggest bands in the scene.
 

I would imagine it has little do with how big or small a band is and everything to do with what they want. Half of Metallica’s albums sound like shit, and they’re one of the biggest bands in the world. 

Shinya was shook by Sakura’s performance.

Came here to see people complain about a beautiful new song, never disappointed.

If you’re looking for nothing but praise then there’s always the YouTube comments.

I swear y'all have the same conversation every single time an official video for an album or Budokan release drops....How is MH not used to these promo edits by now?

We are. And every single time the edits cut out shit that make the transitions sound abrupt and unnatural. If that’s really not the case with Ranunculus then fuck Kaoru!

but this kind of editing happened before. like zephyr of sukekiyo.

I think you mean Anima?

Lately the trend has been to cut the first verse short, which makes the chorus always seem to appear out of nowhere. 

That they’ve even been edited such short songs doesn’t make any sense. The edit of Utafumi was released ridiculous. 

It says “promotion edit ver.” so it’s not the whole song. 

I like everything except the chorus. 

I resurrected this in light of the recent Kisaki scandal, because now his standing in the poll is justified. 

How Akinori got any votes, I don’t know. I think some people just voted for the names they recognized. 

Man, how did we get from “lol a best of phantasmagoria LOL ITS BEEN DELAYED” to this heinous shit?

Literally just now hearing about rape allegations towards Kyo and Daisuke, but I do remember someone talking about a select group of dudes (Kyo, Daisuke, Tatsurou, a few others) that participated in questionable behavior. 

But there’s no doubt people just have it out for Kisaki. Of course his tax evasion bullshit and overall garbage approach to making money warrants the negative attention. But a few months back there was a “bad boys of VK poll/thread” and last I remember Kisaki was coming out on top over dudes that assaulted women. At the time, all we knew was about Kisaki’s poor business practices, but somehow he was getting more bad boy votes than Wataru, a guy that straight up fucking choked a woman. That has to be a case of serious blind fanaticism when assualt doesn’t register on your radar. 

The Ian Watkins comparison crossed my mind too. 

No more flippant jokes about what a scam artist Kisaki is, he’s straight up a piece of walking dog shit and it’s not funny anymore. 

Maybe Shinya isn’t the problem after all. 

I think Papa Kaoru should retire.

I love when Dir en grey describes what their new releases will sound like. 

Evoke the pain of living and feel the speed. 

The Truth come out. Does Life is Pain?
