I think a lot of newer fans probably don't check out the old classics anymore. As relevant as bands like X or Malice Mizer were to VK as a whole, they're not really relevant to today's scene. I think most poeple who got into VK with the 2010's sound would have a pretty rough time getting into a band like X because the sound is so vastly different and "old".
Also I'm pretty sure Nightmare lost their overseas popularity ages ago. They seemed to have a decent amount of overseas fans in the mid-late 2000s, but those seemed to drop off pretty sharply. There was a period of probably like 5 years where I had actually thought they disbanded because I NEVER saw a single overseas fan mention them.

Then which bands are loved by new vkei fans now in your opinion?

From what I've seen while selling at cons: DIR EN GREY, the GazettE, A9, MEJIBRAY and SuG are always really strong sellers. This is especially true among newer/more casual fans.
