Worst thing about being a DEG fan that’s a grown ass man: being lumped in with the fucking weirdos that squee over everything from new haircuts to some subtle facial tics Kyo makes during an interview. Makes me wonder if any of them are actually even listening to the music. 

All Western. Don't know where exactly these people live^^

I'm amazed at how widespread those wrong names like Tooru Niimura or Nishimura are, tbh.
I wasn't into DEG at the vkei-craze (06~08), but whenever I read posts from that time online...
Western bangya are scary, man. I think I probably dislike (or outright hate) 99% of the DEG fanbase.
I just read a certain person's tumblr and there are so many things about Kyo's feelings and whatever, some people claiming to be his fiancee and other weird shit.
 
Those names are/were thought to be real on tanuki some years ago. I've yet to hear any update.
This is the source for "Nishimura Tooru", btw:

Dunno if it's from a KERA magazine, though. Also, the name lacks furigana, so there's multiple possible ways to read it. Funnily, "Niimura" is not one of the readings, no idea where that name comes from.
 
The only actually confirmed names are "Kaoru" and "Shinya", as in, only the first names.
I've also read that Kyo sometime confirmed that his last name is "Nishimura", but well, no real source for that.

Does anyone know the source of this photo? It's from a magazine, but I have no clue which one ._.

The YouTube video is legit. Several songs still in their demo forms leaked around the same time the band was touring the US and Hot Topic was selling the zombie pirate t-shirt and their Warcon albums in 2006. Conceived Sorrow and The Fatal Believer were two that I remember leaked. 
 
I have a backup thumbdrive somewhere that has all the demos. 
 
I also have a backup CD that has Vulgar demos too. 
 
I’ve moved so many times that I’ve probably lost them somewhere. HOWEVER Im pretty sure I posted about TMOAB demos and rumors on my LJ. 
 
Im going to log in and see what all I can find and I’ll post back. 

It's a pre-production version. I don't know where it comes from, though.
I also heard about the alleged tentative names for the TMOAB tracks, but I don't know if they are real...

Since my instagram is public anyway~ (been to the barber since, tho)
 
Well now it's not public anymore lolol

I use Goody-Japan for Yahoo! Auction, puresound etc.
But I don't really know if it's expensive or not, compared to other services. I never had any problems w/ them.

"ryouri" means "cooking" xD
You basically asked if the cooking is alright

@Seimeisenyour upload? o.ô

Going to message you the images, Seelentau, just so I don't blow up this thread with a bunch more large images. If anyone else wants the scans, feel free to drop me a message ^.^

Am a die-hard fan, can confirm that I came all over my copy
Now it's broken
Shit

Some pre-DEG stuff:
 
http://warasibe.co.jp/detail.php?ec=10007646
 
 
A live video by La:Sadie's that's not one of the "big three"? Also, a PV?
 
http://warasibe.co.jp/detail.php?ec=10007644
 
 
La:Sadie's versions of ZAN and Setsuna? Also mentioned here, along with 鏡死 and 刺ノ刻, whatever those songs are.
 
http://warasibe.co.jp/detail.php?ec=10007645
 
 
The famous Kuroyume cover. Don't know from which date, though. Could be the February pre-DEG concert or a later...
This guy says that one of Kyo's earlier bands covered the song as well, and that he has a tereko of the performance, but won't share it... love the scene, really

Not sure what this is. In general, the whole Gesshoku discography is a little confusing^^
 
http://warasibe.co.jp/detail.php?ec=10007642
 
 
Allegedly, they're live tracks, but... well, no idea if they exist. Also mentioned here.
 
Leaked La:Sadie's lives:
14.08.1996 - Kumagaya Vogue (one song leaked)
16.08.1996 - Niigata Odo-Hall
20.08.1996 - 市川CLUB GIO ( two songs leaked)
29.08.1996 - Osaka AMhall (completely leaked, often mislabeled as LS' last live)
 
Also, from DEG's Mousou~ VHS tapes and their VOS documentary, we know that most, if not all of their indies concerts were actually recorded on camera.
 
I also have to correct an earlier statement regarding Kiri to Mayu and Sangeki no Yoru: The actual story is that one day before DEG began recording MISSA, Kyo was told to change the lyrics for Sangeki no Yoru. The band considered removing the song from the EP for that reason, but decided against it since Kiri to Mayu, as it was now called, was the first song the fans were to hear so it was important.
 
And something y'all probably didn't know: Karma was actually supposed to be on MISSA as well, but was not included due to the same reasons. Both songs were later included on the Kaede VHS. Which brings me to another fact:
If your Kaede Crystal Video Box has blood on its back, it's Shinya's. He cut himself while packing the boxes (which the band had to do themselves). Although it's unclear how many boxes they packed, after all, there are 10k copies^^

Hopefully this arrives soon~ (although I already own the upper two)
Also, on Saturday, a tape player will arrive that can digitalise those tapes. Wanna see if they sound any different
