I love the video for Cage by Diru. It’s gory and beautifully disgusting. The MV’s for Reila by The Gazette and Knife by La’Mule are some of my favourites

We need more industrial bands in VK

She pulled the whole “ You have to be a true fan to X” card. Like, seriously? I don’t have to understand everything lol. Oh well, I won’t be responding to her sometime soon XD

Most fans on r/DEG say it’s their least favourite at best. Hell, a lot of people say it’s overshadowed by almost everything after. So its not hated over there, they just prefer the heavy stuff, which again, is totally fine.

Damn poor girl. Did you figure out why they fought?

Ohh, so its like Sasaeng fan from KPOP I asume?

That’s horrible. Pro Ana fourms make me really sick and depressed. It’s not healthy. Also. whats Bangya?

What the fuck?! Lol. I’d laugh if it was Toshiya. Like, he’s awesome and all, but saving your v card for him?! Buy a dildo god damn it XD

Lol. Yeah, I agree he’s like that a lot, but I find it kind of funny honestly lol

Sound like a nightmare. I can imagine Kyo himself just finding that person. Like, I love Kyo and all, but I’m not like obsessed with him. Is she still around? EDIT: And she HAD to use one of my favourite Diru songs for her cringy antics.

I don’t get it lol

Ok I didn’t mean it like that XD. I’m fine if you do it, however if you actually say weird shit in front of the actual artists, then your being cringy

Whats so toxic about Tanuki? Is it literally Japanese Tumblr? Lol

The amount of shippers in the fandom. It’s not toxic per say, but it’s fucking cringy. I legit just wanna look at my favourite bandmates, not see art of them pegging each other.

Coming from someone who’s a huge fan of both Diru and The Gazette, the whole beef is stupid. I’ve never experienced it my self, but the beauty about liking both bands is that they have something unique about them honestly. I’d say that The Gazette was at least influenced by Diru.

I only got into VK since October of last year. If anyone with that kind of attitude found out, they'd be quaking

I see your a man of culture as well

So we all know X Japan right? The pioneers that brought the Visual Kei scene to where it is now. You can't deny the influence that they had. I wanted to ask some questions about them so here I go: 1) Do you like X Japan? 2) Do you think they get a lot of undeserved hate around the VK community? 3) Opinion on Yoshiki? 4) Do you think they are overrated? If so why? 5) Is the love for X Japan deserved? Why or why not? 6) Hide or Sugizo? That is all! DISCLAIMER: Please keep this thread respectful. No hate comments or bashing of others is allowed. Respect peoples opinions, please My Answers: 1) Definitely, They were one of the first VK bands I ever listened to so they have a place in my heart 2) Yes 3) I admire him as a person and as a musician. Call me a dickrider all you want, but I like the guy. One of my favorite drummers. 4) I'll admit and say that they are definitely overrated. Not in the sense of like "they just suck" but more of a "there are more bands than X Japan" kind of overrated. I will still recommend people Silent Jealousy mainly because it's one of my all-time favorite songs. 5) If your an X Japan fan yes. If not then no 6) Both. Hide is one of my all-time favorite artists and has inspired me as a person. Sugizo is amazing not only because of his works towards charity and humanitarian causes, but he does some sick stuff on the guitar. Luna Sea is also one of my favorite bands and Sugizo is both amazing in Luna Sea and in X Japan Sidenote: I know I'm gonna get a lot of stuff saying that "Oh how can Hide inspire you if you weren't alive?". First off, I think anyone can inspire anyone, dead or alive and second, he just speaks to me. I was always that person who hated being controlled and the many quotes that Hide said basically told me to screw what people told me and be yourself. He just spoke to me and I always liked that. I know it sounds cliche, but you probably get the idea.

I can't think of anything else other than the fact that if I say I like X Japan or any other mainstream VK band like Diru or The Gazette I will be labeled a "fake VK fan" or whatever. EDIT: Oh, and when people say stuff like: "What is this VK faggot shit? Why don't the dress up like REAL metalheads like SLAYER!!???" Or "WOW THE GAZETTE TOTALLY RIPPED OF DIRU!!! RUKI IS HOTTER THAN KYO!!!!!!" I mean, Ruki is hot and all but chill the f out bro

1. Definitely 2. I'll admit and say I was a little bit offended by it, especially when I found out that was a thing. Then again, I listen to bands where they burn the bible and have Anti-Christian messages so I got over it. When I show this kind of stuff to my friends it usually gets a wide-eyed stare or a WTF kind of reaction but I won't get angry if they are offended by it. 3. Definitely used to be edgier. Same thing with western bands using satanic imagery 4. Depends on how it's used. If the whole band is screaming Nazi propaganda and promoting actual Nazi beliefs, then that's a no-no. If it's just for show then so be it. In short, I really don't care but for bands doing this, I would be careful as this kind of stuff isn't really the best thing to do. As someone who's been wanting to dress up in the VK style for a while now, I would NEVER do this. I will admit, when I saw Die wearing the Nazi uniform I was like "Seriously man? I just found your band and THIS is what I have to see?". I'm just glad that most bands don't do this anymore. Well, except for that Silent Terror band or whatever they're called.

I can smell the edge in this one

Playing Battlefield 4 and Payday 2. Been getting back on Nier Automata as well. I ended up selling BO4 cause it sucked so I went back to COD WW2.

As if Dir En Grey wasn't gay enough

"What's your favorite band? " "It's this sick ass band from Japan called Yoshi's Cookie" "Nani?"
