  1. Romanized titles for those who can't read the Kanji (along with the release from which they originate):

    Spoiler

     

    - Mudai (from debut single of the same name).

    - BOUTIQUE BEELZEBUB (from debut single Mudai).

    - Tokyo Cinderella (from album of the same name).

    - Kokkeiron haikaihen (from single Neo Japanesque Beauty and Destroy).

    - Kyoumei (from self-titled album GALLO).

    - Musou (from album NERO).

    - Muma -INCUBUS- (from album NERO).

    - Jouma -BELIAL- (from album DIAVOLO).

    - Inma - BELPHEGOR- (from album DIAVOLO).

    - Maou -Yami uta- (from album LUCIFERO).

    - KERBEROS (from single of the same name).

    - PLUTO (from single of the same name).

    - VELTRO (from single of the same name).

     

     

    Despite some sites having an error of the manufacturer being タイムリーレコード (Timely Records), it will be released under THE GALLO'S label: 寺子屋 (Terakoya). 

     

    It will be ¥2000, or ~18 USD.


  2. NERO by THE GALLO. The compositions and mixing are just great and they tie together so well. I can't pick a favorite from the album.

     

    Also、Premier Amour by MALICE MIZER. It's a beautiful album full of poppy but often melancholic love songs and the track Claire ~月の調べ~ features one of my favorite genres of all time: bossa nova.

    I may be in the minority here... I love all eras, don’t get me wrong, but Klaha era is one of the best things to ever happen to VK  to music. Bara no Seidou, especially. That album is pure beauty. I remember when I first heard it... when it ended, I was like “where TF was I for the past 51 minutes and 42 seconds?” It just transports the listener in its own world. The picture it paints is second in vividness only to Dir en grey’s Dum Spiro Spero, and far more delicate. It’s like it’s a whole album-length song, honestly. I can’t even think of listening to the songs alone (with the exception of “Kyomu no Naka de no Yuugi”). 

     

    Anyone here agree?

     

    Klaha's voice definitely conveys so many emotions, especially with the beautiful compositions it's layered over.

     

    Klaha era delivers solitude and sorrow, Gackt era delivers joy and love, and Tetsu era delivers anxiety and uncertainty.

     

    I'd never be able to pick a favorite era because each one conveys something different and does it exceptionally well.

    Understandable!

    I've seen what are often considered classics (including the listed few, with my favorite from the bunch being Inuyasha) but I just think my list has stuck with me more (though a majority of them are notoriously avantgarde in style).

     

    If anyone's interested: my first few anime were ベルサイユのばら on the sacred VHS, then Dragon Ball, and then between Sailor Moon or FLCL iirc.

     I'm looking at some of these and could use that info to not judge your guys' tastes lol.

    Spoiler

     

    Hah. I listed things that stuck with me and I can watch interminably.

     

    I've rewatched Mononoke perhaps one too many times (not to be confused with Princess Mononoke); I love the animation style and fluidity in storytelling. I highly recommend it. The same team also worked on Kuuchuu Buranko, hence why they're both a bit strange (for lack of a better word). The latter definitely isn't for everyone, but I think it's great in its own way.

     

    Steins;Gate does an amazing job with handling the complex discussion of time travel, while also managing to highlight the individual characteristics and lifestyle of the main cast. Unfortunately, S;G does have a couple of fillers (unsurprising given its length), but it's worth sticking through imo.

     

    I absolutely love the plot of Youjo Senki and the overall execution of worldbuilding, plot, characters, so I recommend it if it interests you at all. ( ̄▽ ̄)b

     

     

    I could go on forever about why I decided to list these particular shows instead of some others, but it's really just my own taste in the end.

     

    I do not watch ENG dub, just because I typically prefer the delivery of the lines in JPN more.

     

    A bonus favorite would be either ひぐらしのなく頃に or Serial Experiments Lain, but probably the former since I really like the loop it through me into, lol. The style is notoriously... questionable, but I do like how it tells its story and how the characters are elaborated on.


  6. MALICE MIZER - Le Ciel, Beast of Blood

    GACKT - Mizerable

    X - Entire 80s-90s discography

    the GazettE - INSIDE BEAST

    DIR EN GREY - Obscure, Agitated Screams of Maggots

    BUCK TICK - Dress

    MEJIBRAY - Messiah

    Madeth Gray'll - Opera za no higeki, Lucifer

    hide - Pink Spider, Rocket Dive, Eyes Love You

    Lmao 😂

     

    “Fans”. Like he has any lol.

     

    Was it a stock image or just some random picture?

    Just a random picture, I think. 

     

    Here's a terrible rumor about the all-mighty Tsuzuku because I know you all just love him, lol:

    I remember people saying he's emotionally abusive and would self-harm in front of girlfriends to manipulate them. I almost hope it's true because I can't imagine anyone being sick in the head enough to make that one up. Some Tanuki users would say that he hits his (former) bandmates.

    If it's not true, it makes me wonder why some people have it out for him enough to say shit like that.

    Are there any other rumors beside that? I remember hearing one about Kaoru being raped by Kisaki. 

    Pretty sure that was something made up by foreign gya and/or taken from some fucked up rapefic.

     

    But other rumors about KISAKI..?

     

    Spoiler

     

    He's just infamously a kusoman. Most of the things that fly around about him are confirmed or pretty-fucking-believable things (ex: sexually abusing his girlfriend's(?) daughter, that paper crane catfishing thing, tax fraud). He's also extremely manipulative and abusive.

     

    Most of the things that run around on Tanuki are just about his numerous STDs tho, lol. Also, lots of girls mention the fact that his teeth get in the way when they kiss him, which I find extremely amusing for some reason.

     

    Didn't he also brag about fucking Kyo's(?) girlfriends or something? KISAKI is never someone I've been particularly interested in, so everything mentioned is probably the tip of the iceberg.

     

     

    TLDR: He's a shitty person who ends up always giving STDs because he never wears condoms.

    I can see the similarity, but I'm wondering whether this is just about style or if there are actual copied subjects. If there are, then fair enough. However, stylistically it's all literally just stock edgy high schooler art and I don't think this artist has any legal or moral ownership of it. It's not like every shitty hobby photographer credits the inventor of the depressed in a bathtub picture either.

    It looks a lot like this image from OP.

    Looks like you all beat me to the exhibitionist jokes, tho.

    so it is WITCH !! not BITCH after all. That 2:11 guitar solo is just yummmm !!

    The song is about a girl who puts her "spell" on JoJo. If you look at the lyrics, you might understand what I mean. 

     

    There's merch with "BITCH" on it in the same font.

     

    The band might pronounce it as WITCH, but other Japanese people might pronounce it as BITCH, lol.

     

    Because of the lyrics, I think the pronunciation is kind of up to you.
