I prefer to say my farewell with a bittersweet laught, so I'm choosing "Dance my Generation", since the "End of an era" theme is fitting.

Kamijo from his LAREINE (fiançaille) era

The RAGE when you still cannot remember the title of a song you already listened for HUNDREDS of times in 20 YEARS. (I have an awful memory for song titles I cannot link them with the melody for the life of me, I'm more of a visual memory person)

This time it was a less-musically-relevant-and-more-of-a-collecting-bonanza package Versailles- Jubilee score book Versailles- a ton of bromides Anubis- PAPYRUS ni Egaka Reru RAA no Tenbin Versailles- Cure, pamphlets, and flyers Lareine- Fleur (yellow disc ed.) Kamijo- Mademoiselle (lim. ed. A) Kamijo- Epic Rock Orchestra at Zepp DiverCity Tokyo (lim. ed.) Kamijo- Epic Rock Orchestra at Zepp DiverCity Tokyo (reg. ed.) Lareine- a ton of postcards (the 2 in the middle right are my favorite find of this whole haul) Lareine- signed boards (pretty aged, but they were cheap, so) Lareine- fanclub first 5 magazines (+ the seller added for free what I think may be one of the member letters fans received back if they sent the insert inide Billet?)

The new album is the friendships/contacts HE made all along.

Gazette stans are really pissed off in the Twitter comments.

When you look so much forward for your VK package to arrive that you even dream about it...

I'm glad I'm not the only one with this kind of mental bug. *high five*

I stay in the "small collection" side, especially considering it's 15+ years I'm collecting. 3/4 of it it's Kamijo related. 75 albums (EPs included) 100 singles 22 DVDs 32 promo discs (here I counted different kinds of promo discs) 5 VHSs 1 cassette 3 misc. (singles and/or albums with a second CD/DVD included I counted as simply 1 single/album) In the "collectibles" side (not counting stickers or cards): 79 postcards/bromides 9 photobooks (half of them are from Malice Mizer) 10 pamphlets 7 flyers 12 fanclub magazines 1 cheki I'm waiting for stuff to come at the end of the month, but nothing that will dramatically change numbers (maybe a bit the postcards and flyers ones) My western music collection is more or less 25 items betweens albums and a couple singles/DVD

I LOVE Lareine Fuyu Tokyo PV. I adore that budget vintage Paris vaudeville aesthetic, I wish they'd have used it more in their other PVs. It's the kind of extra I love. Also:

Praying for an Enka-kei EP where he sings and play solo. ❤️
-
I hope it's a stunt during which the singer will go solo releasing a vaporwave or some random undergrond genre mini ep, or something the like, before announcing they'll be coming back.

Thanks, I HATE it (or more specifically, I hate the track hiccupping every time it changes part), I didn't even finish 2 minutes of the track. Is this a late april fools joke? The joke is that you cannot even do it with how it hiccups from part to part every 30 seconds.

France: Today is le 14 Juillet, the day we celebrate the Storming of the Bastilles in 1789.
Italy, an intellectual: Today is the 14th of july, it may not be official, but all the nation gets together to commemorate our beloved Lady Oscar (Versailles no bara) premature death.

I envy you because I tryed it a few times, but every time I get caught in a memento-mori esistential horror and I never use them. (the alternative would be to buy one for collection and one to wear/use, but I'm not too keen to use my money that way and fill my wardrobe of unused VK stuff)
-
Music supports apart (CD, DVD, VHS etc.) and photobooks/pamphlets, I go crazy also for almost all you can put into a clear file (and that tells the band story) like flyers, postcards, bromides, trading cards etc.
-
I do it because western albums would disappear among the ginormous mass of Kamijo's entire career discography (and I still own more or less only half the stuff released). For each western artist, I usually own max 2-3 disks, it's much easier and faster for me to locate each in the single line I dedicated to them, than scattered and hidden among the MANY dozen Lareine/Versailles/etc discs. Same reason why my "not-Kamijo" part of the VK collection is separated too, since it's just a little bigger than the western one (and for lack of the right space where to put it all together).
-
(premise: my Vk collection and the MUCH smaller western musicians one are separated) I divide them by artist/band's name THEN I order each artist's disks by cronological order, from the oldest to the newer (from left to right).
-
I have only 1 cheki, but I store it in a cute cheki photo album I use to store Kamijo's stickers too. There are pretty cheap ones on ebay. This (photo stolen from ebay) v

Maybe it's something very deep and meta and they mean his creativity vein got infertile, as his creative juices don't flow like the good old 80's days? 👀 I mean it could happen to old artists, look at Yoshiki.
-
OH SH*T! OH GAWD! OH C*ZZO! I got it this time too. (Last time it was the Mc Donald collaboration) Follow my *mumbles something intelligible* for more foresights over Yoshiki's future money/attentiongrabs!!
