Silly God Disco by Gazette (I didn't know it was mostly in English when I first listened to it 😅)

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

Yep. Think it just says more about the mentality of those getting involved, nothing wrong with liking one band over the other but there's no point getting all wound up by the other band or their fans or whatever. What is that actually achieving? If it really gets to someone that much they just got to ignore said band/fans and stick with what they get enjoyment out of.
 
Or just appreciate what you get from both bands because they're actually pretty different.... lol.

We need more industrial bands in VK

ummmmm so deg thread regulars are coming for her dead wig while this line
p much gets repeated here verbatim every time sukekiyo chanteuse passes a raspy, trembling wind and records it with some shitty guitar screeching added
 

 

Diru fans who hate Gauze honestly confuse me. Like, it's one of their most influential and iconic releases. I can understand personally not caring for it. But fans that full on hate it really confuse me.

This reminds me of a bangya who I met a long time ago. She wanted to attend the lives that Daizystripper played at but at the same time she didn't want to go because she wanted to avoid a certain friend whom she got into a fight with. Not exactly sure what it was about since she was a little vague on the exact details, but when we attended a taiban live where Daizystripper was playing, she saw her friend there. And her friend, including the girls her friend was hanging out with, completely ignored her even though they knew she was there. Basically, the whole group ostracized her like she was unwelcomed/unwanted there. I'm not sure what her exact feelings were, but I could see it made her feel awkward, unsettled, and depressed. (Not sure if she totally quit going to Daizystripper lives or not.) Being raised from a more Western perspective, I wouldn't quit so easily, but as @Komorebi perfectly stated, the social situation in Japan is different, and when you start to attend more VK lives/events/etc., the same people tend to show up, so it'd be hard to avoid these bullies sadly 😕 

Bangya = band gyaru/gal. A girl who likes a VK band.

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

That reminds me. About two years ago, I was talking to a fellow VK fan and she told me she knew someone who was obsessed with this one guy (I don't remember who, but I want to say Toshiya from Diru fsr, could be someone completely different tho) to the point where she was saving her virginity for him even if the opportunity to lose it to someone else she was sufficiently interested in came along. Bear in mind, this girl was most likely never going to meet him and even if she did, she'd probably just turn him off.

person in the dir fandom using that song as their screen name
originally from livejournal days but now on tumblr, v toxic, harasses/argues with everyone who disagrees with her
has an incredibly unhealthy obsession with Kyo, no one knows him as well as she does!!!!! 

It's a forum dedicated to Visual Kei rumors. Some are true, some are false, some are complete invasions of privacy

mejibray & mamo stans.
(speaking from what I've seen, not necessarily experience)
 
I'm offended

I actually had a Mamo stan from Japan harass me on facebook before, because I made a partially joking (but also partially serious) post about Mamo being a Kusomen in a Vkei group I'm in. I posted the screenshot to my FB to see if anyone knew who she was, and this dude who was a somewhat popular Western Vkei musician (not gonna say any names publicly) actually ratted me out to them and she continued to harass me even more (gladly I blocked her). She even try strawmanning Ai from Gulu Gulu and talked down to me like I was some newbie fan lol.
Funny enough, she didn't deny Mamo's shitty behavior, but actually tried to defend it by saying that my favourite bandmen (who I doubt she even knows) isn't a good person either. Like, even if Ai was a kusomen, that doesn't mean I have to turn a blind eye to shitty behavior. Like, yes, I know Mamo ain't the only one, but for fuck's sake I was just shit posting in a shit posting group
 

Most toxic thing I've ever seen in the VK fandom... go on Tanuki (or any Tumblr translation blog if you can't read Japanese).
 
Wait, don't. I don't want to see you get sucked into that vortex. *shudder*

It's basically just a load of hostile weirdos talking shit about people they claim to care about, soooo... yes.

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. 

1.I'm a fan, more a fan of hide than anything else. My girlfriend loves them though.
2. I've never seen X Japan hate outside of Yoshiki. 
3. Yoshiki is like HYDE and GACKT.
4. X are overrated as a whole, but they're very important regardless. I feel hide is the most significant thing that came from the band, VK would have been just fine without them if they weren't around for as long as they were or today.
5. Love is subjective.
6. Comparing hide and SUGIZO is like comparing rock and classical music. They are both very good in their own rights, hide is a legend, but SUGIZO is an icon and has done a lot of humanitarian stuff.

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

"You're not a real fan unless you've listened to VK for x amount of years", or "unless you've listened to x amount of bands". I fucking hate that. How are they gonna listen to VK for x amount of years or listen to x amount of bands if you try to kick 'em out of the fandom? For the first example, by the time they come back after the specified number of years, they're not gonna know anything new because they left due to peer pressure, so they may as well have just stayed.

I see your a man of culture as well
