Does anyone remember that guy 'Jondesu' on last.fm who updated pretty much every single visual kei band on that website?
I remember him already being active in 2008 and he was still updating band's looks 'till last year.
Has the legend finally died?

there are so many "philia" and "phagia" I didn't even knew existed (Junna is culture)

You're stuck in an Island with
Vocalist from GRIMOIRE
Vocalist from BABOO
Mashiro
Who do you sacrifice to the island's gods first?
For some reason I find myself thinking about that scenario a lot lately.

Listening to D for the first time. What is your favorite song(s)?

I remember liking a lot of the songs from "The Name of the Rose", one of which was 'Sleeper':
I also liked this B-side quite a bit, from the single '真昼の声 〜Synchronicity〜'

kingdom, wonderland savior and vampire saga are for the most part terrible, terrible releases, but their recent ones were very nice as well - i don't have any standout tracks and need to listen to them a bit more

Kingdom was a great release.
I recommend one of their best albums. Bloody Rose or Vampire Chronicle I and II.

Hisoka from Hunter X Hunter is sus, there's no other way to look at it

@Manabu Like i said, I haven't actually finished the manga myself so I dunno how the execution of it went but the ending is definitely....unexpected for a series of this type. I guarantee you won't guess
That's my main issue with TG as a whole. Kaneki is only badass for 2 minutes/2 chapters PER series!! He then goes back to doing nothing, holding back or just hiding in the shadows while everyone talks about how legendary he is. It's actually the reason I dropped it. The author is just messing around way too much. It's a shame because there are some awesome characters but oh well, plenty of awesome series that actually deliver out there.
-
@platy hxh 2011 is hands down one of my favorite anime ever. And easily one of the best shounen ever written. Hisoka is definitely a pervert, however you slice it, but an interesting character nonetheless lol. HxH has a lot of well-written characters tho. If you're only on ep 15, then the best has yet to come! YorkNew City, Greed Island, and especially the Chimera Ant arc are fucking phenomenal. Keep me posted!
-
@CAT5 I was worried during the first few eps that it would be too childish and I loved Togashi's previous work with YuYu Hakusho, but I'm already hooked in every way I hung out with friends years ago while they watched the chimera ant arc so I can't wait for it so I can actually understand what's happening

Setting myself a challenge:
Waking up at 7AM the latest the next two weeks so I can stop being behind on university stuff and play final fantasy XV IN PEACE.

@PsychoΔelicaIt's a university course so I get a degree at the end and if I want I can study a masters degree on it
Some people don't know it but studying how to make video games and about the video game industry is a legit area of study and we have to work harder than most people on our campus lol

@PsychoΔelicaIt sure will. Many Game studios around the world to work at!!

Thoughts on the FF7 remake so far?
- Show previous comments 8 more
-
From someone who hasn't played the original, the PTSD + story alterations are a bit weird, the Eng. version sometimes has this corny "Top Gun"-like dialogue, and the game is really fucking horny (in an oddly charming way, at least.) All that said, the worldbuilding is phenomenal, crazy attention to detail, and it feels really cinematic.
I really don't like Midgar's grungy, industrial aesthetic, but the other positives I mentioned might convince me to buy it if it's ported to PC.

Counting the days for FF XV now.
Already pre-ordered collector's edition, now I just need a PS4...which I don't have.
- Show previous comments 7 more

I actually cancelled my order of FF XV because of how unsure I am. ;; I feel like I'll regret doing either! Would be really cool to hear what you think of it once you get it though. And I couldn't help but notice the Type-0 mention, @Peace Heavy mk II. That was definitely addictive. Slowly going through my second play-through of it. I admit it's a wonky remaster, but I found the combat surprisingly enjoyable, and not repetitive but fulfilling and exciting. There's also so much you can do in it.
-
Only 4 days until I may or may not get a PS4.
Hoping for some 90% off discounts otherwise I'll be eating grass until January

@YuyoDriftI've wanted a psvita for a while, I love handhelds so in the future (with tons of spare money) I might get one. It seems worth it. Needless to say Playstation offers a lot more reason to be with them whereas microsoft barely tries lol
-
@Platy they have stolen money from me a few times thanks to needing ps+ just to put save data a new hard drive and by taking away downloads that I bought.
@YuyoDrift it's not free if you have to pay for them. You even lose access to the games until you renew your membership.

Have y'all seen the controversial Gillette ad? What do you think? Are men not used to progressive messages aimed at themselves? Personally, I think although a little cliché, it isn't a bad advert.
- Show previous comments 7 more

"Any publicity is good publicity."
Gillette knows damn well what they did and the context that they did it in. It's all about raking in those dollary-doos from exposure, ad-revenue, and new customers who want to "stick it to Trump/alt-right" . (How many customers do you really "add" if Gillette is already the go-to for cheap to mid-tier manual razors? 🤔) Pepsi did this by trivializing BLM and earned a shit-ton of money from the ad. Gillette, BiC, Harry's, Philips and Dollar Shave Club all win here.
-
Nothing wrong with the message, but I'm not really a big fan of using subjects like this to cash in on. And the way I see it, they don't exactly give the subject matter the respect and attention it truly deserves here. Feels like they're actually taking a serious subject that should be addressed further, and make it a lot smaller and less relevant than what it is.
It doesn't exactly help that the commercial itself is pretty bad. Looks like a cheap, no-budget and embarrassingly mediocre school project made by teenagers who's only done something like this a couple of times before.

Re-listening to DIM, I'm taking it out of my top gazette albums.

Always remembered it as the "ice cube" album. I didn't know why I remembered the album cover so well, not having listened to the album for many years. I realized I only would listen to it for "Guren", then hop back over to NIL (the only two gazette albums on my iPod before I grabbed their discog sometime after TOXIC released.)

@platy did I change your mind any?

Not amused by Stardust Crusaders so far 😬

The moment they described the long ass trip they were gonna take to get to Egypt I knew I was in for a hell of a lot of filler. If they wanted the story to be snappy they'd have called the Speedwagon foundation for a private plane lol I'll stick with it for sure though.
btw, it must be widely accepted in the fandom/anime community that Hirohiko Araki isn't straight, right? lol

DADAROMA, xaa-xaa and grimoire are touring together. ONE OF MY DREAM LINE UPs
It's like life is laughing at my face...

seems pretty recent. a friend on twitter who went to that live (which was all timely bands tbh: DDRM, xax, RAZOR) that platy mentioned was the one who brought it up because she was happy GRIMOIRE is on timely

@Atreidescmon, dont you wanna see Yoshiatsu having a fit on stage?

I see a lot of tech savvy people here. Can you give me any good digital camera recommendations? Mainly to record videos, but I'll use it for pictures too. GoPro's are too out of my budget. I can spend £50 or £70 at MOST.
I've had a look around but still indecisive, could use some tips.
- Show previous comments 5 more

Tbh, I don't really do any video work so I have a hard time recommending anything since though the are similar, obviously there are different things that you want from video than for photo. That said, either way £70 isn't going to get you much of anything. I'm not trying to be a downer, but man, even looking at like fairly old used gear you aren't going to get much for that. The -cheapest- I could find on ebay for a t2i (a 7 year old Canon camera) with a lens was $200.

I managed to get front row seats for the Nier Automata concert in February 😭✨. I think dir en grey's live will be a couple of days after this show, so I'll unenthusiastically check if there are any tix left on the day. #SecondChoice #Meh #WouldOnlyGoToMeetMHPeeps

Whenever I think about Zenitsu's first time releasing his full power, I weeb the fuck out. One of the best anime moments 2019. (Kimetsu no Yaiba)
- Show previous comments 5 more
-
@CAT5 what moment exactly?
-
@platy That last scene in episode 19, where Tanjiro has that flashback and he and Nezuko launch that (seemingly) final attack on Rui.
Of course the moment you mentioned was bad-ass too. If Kimetsu gets another season, they're gonna have a lot to live up to from just a directorial perspective alone.

Demon Slayer ending was wack. ❌

@monkeybanana4 do watch it!! It's worth it for the animation alone and there are some cool fights~

@platyYep, Zenitsu is annoying as fuck. The Boar-head guy too. Whoever is writing for the show, I just felt like they did a really poor job, cuz a lot of the jokes fell flat or just felt really awkward. Mind you, when I see that whole "coward" archetype in shounen, I immediately think of Usopp from ONE PIECE...he's hands down the best cowardly characters I've seen written.
@monkeybanana4 - despite my criticism, it's DEFINITELY worth a watch!

Oh, God. I'm not even gonna pretend I didn't watch the first episode of that because I did. I just can't believe it didn't end after the first season.
Also... it must have been about three-ish years ago, but I still distinctly remember that, after the woman chose the man she wanted (based on his fucking feet/dick, ofc) she... ran up to him, jumped on his waist and hugged him tight. Like, completely without warning. And this guy didn't get a boner (not even a semi, he was completely flaccid throughout the whole thing) or stumble or owt. Bear in mind, she was quite pretty and she wasn't big or anything, but she looked like she could have at least made him backstep a bit if she was gonna do it that suddenly. Idk, fsr that just made me not believe any of it, tbh. Mayhaps that makes me the shallow one? Lol.

What's your favorite song on DOGMA?
(I scrubbed my pc and ipod from all gosan releases and have filled it with dogma and other gazette stuff to get ready for their live in June)

@YuyoDrift yes, but it doesn't feel far away at all since the year flew by
And um... Since you've dropped by please reply with your favourite dogma track
-
Well considering that my initial thoughts on the album weren't all too favorable, I'd have to break down my favorite by performance and atmosphere.
Performance: DEUX
Atmosphere: GRUDGE
and of course nothing in this album with a 40 foot pole is gonna come remotely close to touching OMINOUS because it is an unreal song and a beautiful farce that we all fell for.
-
Y'all can't wait for a bad production, weak ass vocalist, echo-y guitar, repetitive ass song structure band to show up so you can call it old school visual kei and stan it it to death.
Speaking of Rands here.
The album art was good. That's IT
