Komorebi

Then I'll go with EN2 because I feel those are definitely the better song choices in the long run. Thanks!

Apparently the charity projects will continue. Kudos to Asagi. 
 

I may need your help getting a copy. I'll let you know as soon as I can. Thanks!

I've decided to give online dating another go and not a single person on the app I'm using has 'visual kei' as an interest. Fuck this XD 

I mean, this Lime dudes got a point. Why release a full album when you can get your fans to buy 3 songs of varying quality for $15-30? 

Release several singles a year and you don’t have to worry about writing full albums. And besides, changing the formula is a bad business move when your current model is already profitable. 
 
Kizu feels very “corporate” to me. As if several music execs got together and formulated a band who could more efficiently deliver profits. Everything about them feels very “corporate” to me. Designed in such a deliberate way. 
 

I always called them "the micro head four en es" I feel SOOOO stupid now.

Considering how long I've been into VK at this point, I'm not sure anymore.
 
I found about this scene when I was in my early teens. At the time I mostly listened to different types of metal (mainly nu, death, black & power). I just remember finding out about Dir en grey, Girugamesh, Mucc, LUNA SEA and thinking "holy shit, this is it". For me this was something completely different and new, despite having existed for a long time already. It was probably a combination of the looks and music, and as I dug deeper down the hole of all types of shit-kei  and different sub-genres, ranging from, to and everything between Eze:quL and GLAY, I realized that I'm stuck. It's pretty scary to think about how much of an impact this scene has had on me, even to the point of making big life decisions (i.e. moving to Tokyo back in 2014), and to be completely honest, I'd probably be a totally different person today if I never had gotten such a huge interest in visual kei.  Of course, I was into japanese culture already such as anime, video games etc, otherwise I probably would've never found this scene to begin.
 
I'm just rambling now, and to get to the answer quickly: It's very likely a mix of the looks and the music. Nowadays I rarely listen to western metal, and my favorite genres besides VK is indie pop/rock and rap, so I get most of my metal cravings from this scene now.  

I see no much difference in the Kpop and VK scenes besides the musical genre.
They both have a similar marketing, cater to a similar demographic, both scenes have some sort of sexual exploitation behind a pretty facade, similar arguably repetitive sounds (even choreo) and both have performers posing as musicians playing/singing and dancing to songs they didn't write, although VK does have a lot more performers actually writing their music.

Then if you don’t know what the situation in Japan is, shut up and go diss bands who try to do nice things elsewhere.

There seems to be some confusion here. Allow me to elucidate some things:
 
There is nothing wrong with this thread. Yes, MH is primarily a Japanese Music forum, but we created all of these different subforums FOR A REASON. If you are not interested in taking part of this discussion, then don't. It's as simple as that.
 
People who are not staff members have no business trying to dictate what content/discussions should or should not be posted here. Stay in your lane.

Thats why things like ACACIA and Hard Koala are important. People seems to forget about stuff really fast these days. Everyday there is something new to worry about that the media will be bashing in our heads at left and right, but the animals are still there suffering from the fires aftermath and is important to still think about they too.

This was announced and planned before the corona crisis. 

I’ll be getting copies for a few people, if you’re interested let me know. 

As far as I remember he said everything is going to help rebuild. Asagi is always donating for animal shelters and rescues anyways so this is expected of him.

Idk about Deluhi, but Screamer is JILUKA’s obvious flagship whenever playing in taibans for new crowds. I don’t think they play Twisted Pain nearly as much as they play Screamer. We can ask them next time Boogie takes questions on IG lol
 
 
Some of the encore songs will be distributed as preorder bonus on some of the presale events. But since it’s one per city I don’t think I can get my hands on more than one.
