I unfortunately have yet to meet a bandomen irl myself but I did talk to this one guy who met Shina at a Noi'X revival live and said he was a cool guy. He didn't even bump into Shina by accident or pay VIP, Shina left from backstage when the CD seller called him down because a big Noi'X fan was there. Shina was very thankful, shook this guy's hand, and said lots of nice sounding stuff in Japanese that went over the dude's head, generally acted very kind. When Shina was onstage, he knelt down to hold hands with members of the audience, including the dude. And after the live was over, Shina gave him the setlist as a keepsake. So yeah, Shina gets some cool points.
 
@Cantavanda told me that enjoyed his meeting with Kamijo, he was nice and enthusiastic to meet Canty and the other fans [IDK if you'd classify Kamjio as problematic because of his history of rampant cultural appropriation tho]. An old pal of mine met Mana-sama when modelling for him and said that he's actually a pretty down to earth guy who was very respectful and kind to the models. A lot of the fanaticism surrounding him is dumb but he apparently is a very respectable fellow worth at least a bit of appreciation.

How could you say something so controversial yet so brave?

aie from deadman etc. Is a nice guy. He does a bartender gig at Loft every now and then and whenever I've met him he seems like a good person. Kind of aloof and such but nothing bad about him. I got to sing along to Smells like teen spirit during one of his bar night sessions as well together with Tetsu from Malice Mizer. Also answered my questions about his old bands without being annoyed or embarrassed.

Shina deserves all the love in the world
I'm sorry.

Generation Y. Got the timing to be a teenager when the nu metal hype train was going on.

I'm curious to see the age demographics of MH. I bet it will mostly be Millennials followed by Gen Z, then Gen X. I know that the definition of which generation starts when is murky but I choose only the most reliable source, Wikipedia! That being said, if your birth year intertwines with two Gens (like 1996) choose whichever one you identify most with. 
 
I'm Gen Z. Honestly, going by all the revival lives and stuff in the VK scene, and the slow transition to digital mediums like having music on Spotify and doing lives and interviews on Youtube, I feel like I was born in the right generation, 100%. How about you?
 

I'm generation Y and I started to listen vk in the 2000s. Poland always had relatively small fanbase, so most of the bands avoided our country :(. Back then I watched videos on yt, and tried to download albums from bearshare or other softwares (I didn't know about soulseek), but very slow internet was very annoying. Now is so much better

I am Gen Y 😃.  I discover VK was young by a French Rock Magazine they talk about European, American and Visual Kei band because many bands who comes in France in 2000's and I see no one because I was young and I live a small town. In these you can buy a European Edition of visual kei cds for many bands but not all.
 
In this time , many bands haven't a Youtube Channel, and many MV uploads from TV or CDs.
 
In this time you had many shows , lives and MVs from Nico Nico Douga was free in start. After certain shows was not free and you had to pay. And I created a old account for free (maybe he's dead).
 
After the decline of Visual Kei in Europe , I buy CDs from Japan .
 
I am happy when labels and bands created their YouTube channels and they streaming their music on Spotify and Amazon.

I'm either Gen Y or X but I decided to vote Y.
 
I never minded getting to know about VK when I was in the middle of my Twenties so I didn't have to ask my parents, if I were allowed to go to this live or that one (2006 - 2008 there have been so many bands coming to Germany that I've been to lives so often compared to now). I also didn't have to care about school and if tour dates might interfere with school stuff, especially when I had to go to other places than here so to me that was the perfect age. I don't look my age anyway so no one every thought I'd be that much older than the others. xDD
