Smileberry instore tomorrow! I'm going to all three of them because I have no concept of self control.
 
I will take 5 pictures, maybe 6 or 7 if these girls sell me their Motoki tickets. I need at least one pic with Motoki plz....

I need to answer this! I'm happy that this many people are discussing on this topic.
 
I've also been wondering this suddenchange for a while. Few years ago I used to have many friends listening VK but something happened & k-pop came. Most of my VK listening friends suddenly changed completely to listen only k-pop. It really seems weird for me because I knew that usually those persons weren't listening that much pop-ish music at all.
 
Why can't people just listen both genres at the same time? That I'd understand... But suddenly changing one genre of music/abandoning it and start to listencompletely different one? Hm. For me, I really don't get k-pop. Meh.

nuppe's can still be considered black face. He did it because playing the part of someone from Africa. His mannerisms were affcted and he was supposed to be speaking another language obviously so he would just make sounds. It was a joke but I still think it was more out of ignorance and lack of cultural awareness (a huuuuge problem here) than racismOh ok sorry. Though, once again as you noticed it's a pain in the ass to sift through tanuki threads so it's highly doubtful someone (even fuckyeahtanuki) would grab links to specific threads--plus discussions like what you wanted to see are most likely spanning several threads. But definitely, you have to be skeptical with reading it and most of the time is bitching about gya tbh. But even if you're majoring in japanese it doesn't prepare you for the bangya slang that riddles the threads and they sometimes give members nicknames (ie kisaki is "tooth" iirc. JokArt au Legal's bassist's name was Suu so they wrote his name as the kanji for vinegar)

Drunk dreamer ok bye
 

You're so beautiful ;w;

On top of everything else, I can't even properly communicate with other foreign bangya. It's hard enough sometimes being one of the only foreigners at an instore or live event, can we not just be nice to each other? Especially when said people seem to have their nose up Japanese bangya's asses. So when i try to make friends its just muri?

Since I've revealed this elsewhere, colorful jinsei or colorful "human life"
is how I perceive visual kei as a genre. I usu. have it stylized as colorful人生 since it looks cooler.
 
Also, it's an antithesis to "Monochrome" "Heaven" huehuehue
(I wasn't going to make my user colorful黄泉 "hell", since it doesn't make much sense)

Oh my god one of my most favorite bands.
 
Riku's vocals are really good. His voice is high but it's not too high and his screaming is pretty well done. They're a good mix of heavy and light if you don't like too much screaming in your music.
 
I think they're a good band to start with tbh. Their melodies are catchy and the shamisen in the background always makes everything sound pretty.

It does look like my perspective is a little different, but it seems like everyone knows a lot more than I do! Maybe some distance gives ya'll a better overall picture of a band/scene. 
 
I really really want to see FED (their oneman in Nagoya was the same day as another live and I had to choose). Every since Ryu posted a picture with Zin's Luy (who I love) I've been researching and listening and they sound good! Right up my alley so to speak. 
 
Charlie is my ultimate. I never can take a proper picture where I put my arm around him because I get so damn nervous being that close to him. ;_; I love him so much. 
 
I really want to write up my experience at the live! It was so different. If you like wagakki then you'll probably like Zigzag
 
Me and my friends went to the live house thirty minutes before and we barely got into the back, there were people lined up and people already inside for them. I wish we could have gotten there sooner but we did the out of store event and had 2 shots with MeteoroiD and Elysion (which is a story in itself, omg)
 
Haha we couldn't see the support drummer at all! Thats how shitty the venue was. It was the tiniest place I've ever been in (JANUS, I think it was called). Which is funny because I've seen Shounenki a few times so it would have been interesting to see if I recognized him. 
 
And if you're suspicious if I'm your friend I'm not LOL. Not to say we couldn't be friends but I don't think we've met. 

Hey! Obviously I'm new here haha.
 
I'm Sara, you can call me by name or by my username or whatever (my username is a joke btw... though I don't know if I'm considered bangya anyways just by default).
 
I'm mostly here to talk about Vkei, though I do like other Jrock. I just happen to live in Japan and going to lives is my hobby (it takes up so much money it's pretty much my only hobby). I don't really go see any bigger bands, except Nocturnal Bloodlust but even they're still small compared to some. I usually go to Nagoya lives (I will go to Osaka or Tokyo for special occasions, I recently went to Kansai Rock Summit in Osaka since so many bands were playing!). I like ジン, Smileberry, Sick2, BFN (before they disbanded obv), Elysion, MeteoroiD, FED, 真天地開闢集団ジグザグ (saw them for the first time in Osaka this past Sunday, they were incredibly live!), and a lot more I can't think of.
 
Anyways, I know all the bands I go to are smaller but if you guys want live reports I'd be happy to do it. I'm excited to listen to more Jrock outside of Vkei but also of course welcome vkei recs if you have any!
