For a long time I had the impression that boys love antics in fanservice were solwly dying out. But nowadays I feel like it's returning! Most notable mention here the project band "BL Kingdom" of San and Milk (ex-Lack-co.) The whole project was focused on boyslove with instore events where you could have them take on the BL pose of your choice.... 🙈 Then Jewly from Kaitou is a declared "pervert" and alsways harassing the bass player. They do fake-sex videos and you could almost make some p0rn out of it, if you cut it together... Is the BL back, or do I just follow strange bands? It does make you cringe to have these events.... but on the other hand there seems to be a group of fans for it as the most popular confession in the confessions thread was "reading/writing gay VK fanfiction"...

I hope you can get it then! 😊 Just be aware that it's a bit difficult contract-wise and many people get stuck in situations that are not optimal (no pension scheme etc.). So for a year or two, have fun! Otherwise think twice if that is really what you want to do with your life. Especially if teaching was not your dream to begin with.

Also bandmen look terrible out of make up/hairdo with a zillion products thrown in

Surprise release! *lol* No one counted on this one!

The best rumor is that Yada from Brand X was gay and totally into Rame and also harassing other bandomen. If you did not let him do his flirting/touching you would not get good talks/events at his store.

Teaching English in Japan seems to be a super shady business contract-wise.... 😑 🤨 I would suggest you get some other skills and go for a "normal" job instead....

1. I think you should get your stuff together! Honestly, you make a living by doing this, and faking a smile does not cost anything. If normal people can do it at their job all the time, it's not too much to ask for max. 1h... 2. Indy bands appreciate it way more when you come and interact with them! They need their fans to keep paying and in order to make music. So yes, they should be happy about people turning up! Well known acts don't need this sentiment anymore from a financial perspective and I have a general feeling that they forgot the value of their fans... but well, if you like a band you will not care anymore about that and still forgive shitty behaviour, as it is like a drug.... I used to follow a rather "cold" money-centered band. Which was ok for me, but then I went to some other bands events etc. and actually got pissed at my favourite for being so distant, that I stopped buying as much as I did before to get satsuei etc. It can be a nice experience and it should be, as you dish out tons of money.... 3. No, they should not do events then. 4. Yes, like I wrote, I used to ensei from Europe to join their tour for 2 weeks for like every tour they did, but the cold behaviour started to piss me off at some point so I stuck to just buying the concert tickets. 5. Mostly at gigs in Europe.... 😑

I almost thought it was another anime con. Lol

I think he does sometimes and cleans up. Lol. Nothing serious. This is about how lovers, mitsu and tsunagari should behave and how it's impossible for a bangya to do this. Don't drop hints on sns, don't go to lives, walk with 5m distance to bandomen etc.

Meh~ nothing exciting here

I think there was a VK fan in Noragami? Friend of the main character?

Ok.... so Maria has not taken any dates at cyber down, which must mean he is free to keep doing whatever he pleases there.... Japan is so terrible in some regards.... On the other hand, Kaitou keeps releasing taiban dates, meaning they did not get a live house ban from exposing Maria. I am happy for that. You should not have to end your career for doing the right thing.

Tenten is doing fashion, too

I just checked train prices, no way I will take my poor car to Paris.... and it's expensive... plus Hotels.... no, i can almost fly to Japan for that money.... Or anyone living in Paris and offering to host?

The day tickets were really reasonable.... ~20€?

It was confirmed by Japan Expo before! The thing is Ddrm has not listed anything on their website or mentioned it anywhere. That's why people are still cautious.

Well, fans are not sure, if it's happening or not, but Japan Expo announced Dadaroma. Let's see what happens! Wwww

Why is tensai still listed for an event in late November? A 2 months break announcement? I feel fooled!.

I heard from some sources that he was thinking about some kind of re:mbhi revival... But first a break, looking for members for his new Project...

The sad thing is Maria would probably be super happy to meet you and even provide extra alcohol... 😩 (see the other thread) So if you ever make it, chances you can do this are really high! I would like to meet Rame, cause he is such a cool bitch and talk with him about music business and why stuff succeeds and fails.

Can you still be connected to this? *removes makeup* 😂 I think a lot of them are so ugly without makeup anyway! Lol, so be realistic! Wahahahaha My friend has started to raise a concern regarding the Maria thing. As they involved Cyber, this COULD result in some live house bans for Kaitou, as the live house owners don't like this... We will see what happens.... i hope they can still perform.

I don't think we will get a song about him, that would honour Maria too much and the guys are just really pissed at him. But at least there were a lot of retweets, so people were notified. And I also think that this is not the first time Maria is acting like this. It's just that no one called him out in public.... Cyber is a little sh*t-hole with just do-do-do minors playing there anyway.... I honestly feel that Kaitou will not play there again, even if invited as special guest. Lol If you think they did a good job, leave a twitter "thank you" under one of Masato's posts, please.

I agree and I read a lot of the jourens comments on this, telling their stories, so I actually think it's true.

Hi, So the people have asked me to make a own thread and since these are hard, official allegations on public, retweeted twitter, I decided to make this in the general section and not rumors. It all began when Kaitou was invited to play as a guest at Ikebukuro Cyber. They don't usually play that venue, but they decided to do so this time. It then happend that Maria Cross was staffing the drinkbar that night. As we all know Maria Cross is a highly suspicious individual, with former arrest for pedo antics etc. And according to his twitter, he is a regualr at Cyber, being there ~4 days a month and apparently acting as staff. Allegedly Maria at the drinkbar then mixed alkohol also into drinks where people requested non-alcoholic beverages (some of my twitter mutal were there, sensed the strange taste and threw it away...), when alcoholic stuff was ordered, he filled half the glasses with alcohol and also gave alcohol to (un-)willing minors, who identified themselves as such. Well, girls were rather offended. Maria then proceeded to hit on the girls and try to exchange line and other contact information. This made a lot of them very uncomfortable. The fans proceeded to report this to the band and the band was very upset at these illegal, shady antics that ruined the fun for their fans. Masato did not know a lot about Maria at that point and sent out his first tweet warning people of Maria's behaviour. People then gave him Maria's twitter and he repeated his warnings and exposure if Maria's account, explicitly doubting how such a pervert could be employed as staff at cyber: He was also playing a session band soon after and the band had practiced the song "M" by Ayumi Hamasaki. He was very upset, so he exchange the lyrics at somepoint from "Maria" to "Masato" in protest. I don't find his tweet about not wanting to sing the name Maria anymore, he seems to have deleted it from his official "shitpost twitter" lol. The whole thing cumulated in Kaitou writing an official complaint E-mail to Ikebukuro Cyber, notifying them of Maria's illegal and suspicious behaviour and requesting a response. Cyber just gave a random reply along the lines of "We are sorry this happend, we will look into it. Thank you for your patronage." Which was not satisfying at all so basically Masato ended his tweet with telling his fans to take extra care and caution when going to Cyber (as they apparently accept shitty behaviour of their staff.) Well, this and the cyber issue was mentioned in their potcasts a lot where they repeated that such things are inacceptable, fans pay money to have a good time and should not have to be subjected to such shitty treatment.... They got really upset about it.
