IN LIGHT OF THIS THREAD....
 
please donate to my gofundme to make the western equivalent of 9goats black out. thank you. vkei is not dead.

I definitely don't think there's anything wrong with Westerners having visual kei bands, but it would be great if their music and style was anything more than mediocre and if they weren't cringey narcissists as people. Also in terms of not being able to pull off the style, they COULD do it. I do and I'm a chubby average-looking white person. It takes a lot of practice and effort to learn to style yourself correctly, but some people are so cocky that they're convinced they're already perfect when they're only halfway there, in both fashion and music. 
 
ALSO I've literally seen people whining that "visual kei is dying" or "it isn't what it used to be" since I got into this shit in 2003. It's usually from people who have been in the scene like 2-5 years and haven't come to terms with the fact that the life expectancy of a visual kei band unfortunately includes their favs and they get bitter when all the bands they liked when they got into vk are now disbanding. 

I wanted to have a good day today 😩😩😩

Renaissance in the west? Was it ever alive? Does anyone want it to be?

#gacktproblems
 
their music isn't that awf compared to 
1) tragic choice of vocalists twice (?) already
 
2) looks
their motherfucking myspace mollywhore looks
jeffrey starr didn't retire this style in 2005 for this to be happening now

i'm so sick of hearing about this #resurrectvk garbage, how bout #resERECTmyErection

its almost like he should be taking the advice himself

"They look like final fantasy characters  XDDDD"
 
"I'm a girl and they're prettier than me, so unfair ;_;"

I feel like Mako from deadman is pretty underrated. Also, I know he gets (or used to get a lot of shit), but my heart has a soft spot for Sakito from Dué le quartz.
 
Back in the day I felt like Asagi from D was super overrated. I can't stand his voice. 

Just the casual anxiety/depression knocking at my door hehe

Underrated:
Gara (MERRY)
Rei (Marco)
Sui (David, ex-Megaromania)
Kaya
Tetsu (ex-Malice Mizer)
Hibiki (The High Grip, ex-Calmando Qual)
Saya (Labaiser)
Seth/Z (Moi dix Mois, Art Cube)
 
Overrated:
Tsuzuku (Mejibray)
Kamijo
Bidoh (Elysion)
Hiro (Cockturnal Buttlust)
Jojo (The Gallo)
Subaru (Royz)
Yuuki (Lycaon)

Underrated:
-Asagi (D)
-Kazuki (Xaa-xaa)
-Ryo (9Goats Black Out, Dalle, Hollowgram, Keel)
-Kyouka (Grieva)
-Juka
-Akane (Para:noir/D.I.D.)
 
Overrated:
-Chiaki (Dezert)
-Keisuke (Deviloof)
-Hal (Fest Vainqueur)
-Subaru (Royz)
-TenTen

I'd actually say Asagi is underrated, since people seem to prefer Kamijo over him, despite Kamijo's vocal ability not being as outstanding.
 
Depends on who you ask though. If you take the average facebook dwelling VK fan then Ruki, Yoshiatsu and Tsuzuku are vastly overrated.
 
Jui (ex Vidoll) as quite an unique voice and very good vocal ability, even if he doesn't sing as well now, he is still underrated imo

all my days are bad days

Ahhhh, happy to see another sims player here. xD I thought I was the only one spending hours on creating fav' bandmember.
