I'm actually curious now, isnt japan kind of like moving back to normalcy. Like I know some vk bands are postponing some shows but at the same time others are still performing them, feels weird your excuse for suspending is activities is covid when I think this would be the time bands would start kicking up activities 

wtf does "skele me dop deaddz" mean?

キラワレモノ (Kirawaremono) Gu.ドッペルげんたー (Doppel Genta) has tested positive for coronavirus, and hence their oneman at 2020/7/29 has been postponed.
 

Hi everyone,
 
I am Baptiste (but call me Tsukiyo), 25 years old. I was born in Vietnam but I grew up in France. I'm living in Belgium currently.
 
When I was 12 years old, one of my friend who made me discover a lot a musics (rock musics) sent me two videos. It was Gianism Shichi by Nightmare and Garnet by D'espairsRay. At first, I didn't really like those musics, I guess there were too different from what I usually listened and watched. But there was something that was pushing me to listen to them again and again. Some sort of curiosity. After some days, I ended up loving visual kei. It was one of the most important event of my life beacause visual kei influenced me a lot after that. During several years, I was listenning to visual kei musics and I discovered many bands. But sadly, around 2014, most of the bands that I loved disbanded or started to realese more commercial musics. On top of that, I didn't like the new bands at that time. Finally, I stoped being interested in visual kei scene.
 
But recently, one of my friend (another this time) encouraged me to post my photos on Instagram (https://www.instagram.com/tsukiyo_yazawa/ if you are interrested) and I got in touch with some other visual kei fans. This led me to try visual kei musics again and... here I am. So, I hope I will like some new musics because I am a bit tired to listen to the same musics for 10 years.
 
Don't hesitate to contact me if you have any suggestions or just to say hi. See you

As reported on their twitter, Shellmy vocalist Hyo has contracted coronavirus and they have decided to cancel their live at Liquid Room on 07/26. Hyo has reported on his own twitter that his fever has fallen a bit, but he still feels fatigued with a sore throat and poor appetite. Let's hope he gets well soon.
 
 

The single has been changed to a crowdfund-limited release! See rewards info for more details! They also have a couple of re-recording CDs planned as well!
 
More info:
When Mikansei Alice planned their 47 prefecture tour (which consisted of 15 shows) and their tour final at Akasaka BLITZ for June 4 this year, it was called "stupid and reckless" for a young band like them to do as they've only been active for 3 years. However, due to COVID-19, they had to cancel so now they have a fuckton of debt worth over 3 million yen  (~30,000 USD) and are at risk of disbanding. The campaign ends on July 30.
 
Expenses required to continue activities:
1.6 million yen (Akasaka BLITZ estimated price)
800,000 yen (Cancellation/postponement of 15 performances; cancellation fees vary thru each venue, even if postponed)
600,000 yen (Expenses for performance staff, travel expenses, etc.)
500,000 yen (Making of the live DVD of the tour final performance)
 
Vocalist Rui is strongly dedicated to this project, as he has always wanted to perform at the venue (for 10 years to be exact). He even invited his father, who has never seen him perform live, so he wants to raise the funds in order to actually make this a reality.
 
Campaign rewards (which also includes a crowdfund-limited single release) :
 

Mother
 
 
Kiryu
 
 

They're not getting as much support as they need so they want foreigners to chip in now. (they have 6 days left & are not even halfway to their goal)
 
 
 

Japanese culture really needs to start to realize that mental illness exists. Even though I'm not a fan of the band, I'm glad he's alive and I hope he can work things out with his bandmates if only for him to grow emotionally.

アスティ (asty) has announced that they have lost contact with Vo.タケル (takeru) as of July 21, as he has deleted his social media and has not answered calls from the rest of the members. On that same day, the band had to resort to having their out-store event and live without him.
 
The next day, they confirmed that Takeru is safe, via his relatives, but the band has still not be able to contact him directly. They plan on having a discussion about the situation after their next free oneman live on July 23(?). 
 


 

They uploaded a digest of the tour final. There were three shamisen players and they played some songs. This show was epic.

Besides finding Vk related items in resale stores, the best two experiences for me was going to a Mitsuwa and hearing "I for you" by Luna-Sea, and then going to a generic weeb store in a small shopping center and they were blasting an cafe, nightmare, gazette, and miyavi lolz.

I nearly fell out of my damn chair when I saw Miyavi being mentioned in a currently trending Buzzfeed article of all things

^THIS RIGHT HERE 

Some people describe me as weird but most people only see the shy side of me and think of me as a very average, reserved person. IDK, I always find that people who describe themselves as weird are some of the most absolute boring-ass normie mfers I've ever met ("OMG I ate this entire large pizza by myself, I'm like so weird!" Like no, eating food is not a personality trait. I dunno what to tell you but you're just fat, Becky) so I like to think of myself as a normal, not weird person lest I let someone down with my more demure traits.
 
Throughout my life I've experienced being the well-behaved model student everyone respects, the outcast who got bullied a lot, and a non-existent entity so I'm not really sure if I'm 100% "unusual" or not. I've been a good normie, I've been bad weirdo, and I've been nothing. Maybe that's the unusual aspect of it 

I don't talk about it because enough Japanese people do irl and Japan doesn't usually factor in positives or negatives so it's like... only 4 personality types in the world for them I guess lmao. It wouldn't be such a big deal if some older Japanese (bosses, etc) didn't buy into it 100% like some of the crazy astrology girls in the West. Either way I'm O though most Japanese people think I'm A because I'm thorough at my job. Little do they know I'm a lazy ass at heart lol

I'm O+, which I believe is the most common blood type worldwide. According to the wiki, this should be true of me:
Best traits: Confident, self-determined, ambitious, strong-willed, intuitive, agreeable, competitive and athletic.
Worst traits: Unpredictable, spiteful, self-centered, cold, aggressive, arrogant, envious and ruthless.
 
Not sure about athletic or envious lol. Tbh, after reading all the traits for each personality type, I think I kind of match all of them to some degree. I don't rly believe that your blood type determines your personality but I guess it's a bit of fun.

Made sure to search MH and I’m shocked that a VK forum hasn’t talked about one of Japan’s favourite personality codifiers: Blood Types. If you haven’t heard of blood type theory, you can quickly scan the Wiki or read an article but basically it’s the belief that one’s personality is partially influenced by the type of blood that runs in your veins. It’s like astrology in the sense that it’s a rough outline for what you’re like as a person (also it’s not scientifically proven).
 
I’m a B-type! B+ to be precise. I found out in my senior year biology class when we took samples of our blood to find out our blood-types in order to learn more about them. I was the only B in the whole room Everyone else was either O or A.
 
B-types are said to be creative, passionate, flexible and curious. Our downsides are that we’re said to be selfish, uncooperative and irresponsible. I think this sort of fits me? I can be quite passionate, expressive and strong-willed. I get called based all the time, hehe. Plus flexible, yes, I am definitely not the anal A-type at all. I’m so far from being a perfectionist, which is what A-types are mainly categorised as. The issue is that B-types are described as outgoing and I’m really shy around strangers and generally reserved with most people. Also, no one’s ever called me selfish or anything like that, my parents included (I’ve been criticised for other things). Especially irresponsible? People have looked up to me as a shining example of conscientiousness and studiousness… 
 
Anyway, there seems to be a decent amount of B-type guys in the VK scene, so if it means that I’ve got that same punky spirit in me then I’m happy to be a B-type! Some of my favourite B-type bandomen are Gokimi (Tokyo Heroes, Guru Guru Eigakan), Yoshiyuki Shimizu (Shinjuku Gewalt, Cosmo-Shiki), and Kenjirou Murai (Cali Gari).
 
Final tidbit: did you know that your race impacts what kind of blood type you’re likely to have? Where I originate from (Central Asia), B-type is the majority blood type. For white people, there are many O-types. In Japan, A-type is the most common.
 
What’s your blood type, MH peeps? If you know it, that is. You can also elaborate if you're + or -. Do you think it fits your personality? And which of your favourite bandomen do you have a blood type in common with?
