XD Though believe me, I figured it was going to be. Had written up a text to congratulate a friend who's a Green Bay fan, but didn't send it, because hey five more minutes.

Seahawks NFC Champs shirt hohoho

Oh ok, that makes sense

Started watching Barakamon since I finished the manga, at least, as far as it went. Really want to watch K Missing Kings though, but I can't find it anywhere. A bunch of sites with fake links to it, but nothing concrete. So annoying.

Currently reading: Blood Lad (releases have been slow dang) Barakamon Handa-kun (even slower) OZ Black God

Just started Nabari no Ou, just finished K. Currently Watching: Beelzebub Magi Tokyo Ghoul Fairy Tail Rewatching: D-Gray.Man Rurouni Kenshin I need to step up my game clearly.

Rurouni Kenshin: Kyoto Inferno....twice Freaking awesome. Gotta get around to watching the next one.

Luna Sea and Hollowgram works for me 01.二手玫瑰 [second Hand Rose] – 好花红 02.Brand New Sunset – Born Again 03.365daband – Get On The Floor 04.vistlip – WEB 05.Czecho No Republic – Melody 06.Ｍ – こころもよう 07.C-QUINT – หน้าไม่อาย 08.serial TV drama – LEMON 09.asphalt frustration – return to the ground 10.KAT-TUN – SPIRIT Hmm, lots of poppy stuff. Totally love that 365 song though, so going with that.

So detailed. i'm just going to list the bands I've seen live, no dates or whatever. The Pillows Tsushimamire The Rodeo Carburettor Hyde MUCC Girugamesh D'espairsRay Merry LUNA SEA GLAY B'z

I have been known to enjoy Frank Sinatra. 01.KEN THE 390 – Lego!! Remix feat. SKY-HI a.k.a. 日高光啓 (AAA),KLOOZ,環ROY,TARO SOUL 02.信樂團 (Shin Band) – 世界末日 03.Crazy★shampoo – LOVE SONG 04.遊助 (Yuusuke Kamiji) – 船上の音楽団 Feat. HEARTBEAT 05.Cypress Hill – Insane in the Brain 06.Every Single Day – 처음 고백 07.ＨＥＲＯ – もしもボタン。 08.Flow – Welcome to my misery 09.蕭亞軒 (Elva) – 愛我不愛 10.ムック – 終止符 Well the MUCC song is pretty awesome, but I've always been a closet fan of Cypress Hill and Insane in the Brain is a classic ahahah.

That's interesting about Yuu. The composition used to be more equal between him and Kenichi. It's kinda wow that the latter only has one song here and what, none on BF?

This was really hard and I couldn't even stick to 10 like I usually do. Or include EPs. There are two non-Japanese artists in there, but oh well, I'm not redoing it now lol. These aren't in order really either, but my absolute favorite of the year is, uh, highlighted. Honorable mention to TML. 1.Hilcrhyme - Five Zero One 2.TOC - IN PHASE 3.KEN THE 390 - #7 4.SKY-HI - TRICKSTER 5.FEMM - Femm-Isation 6.M.I.B - Maginot Line 7.The Madcap Laughs - The Midnight Love 8.Jam Hsiao - The Song 9.Dir en grey - Arche 10.this is not a business - DEATH MARCH 11.Arukara - CAO 12.SADIE - GANGSTA 13.MY FIRST STORY - 虚言NEUROSE 14.ALSDEAD - IDEA-イデア- 15.MERRY - NOnsenSe MArkeT

Actually really enjoyed this album for the most part. The 9mm comparison is obvious though lol. But it's better than what they've been doing, so I ain't complaining. Only irritants were the pointlessly noisy 自意識過剰型木偶人間 and 群青 is weak. Hide and Seek and the title track were probably my favorites after one listen anyway.

D'ERLANGER, gosh I haven't listened to them in ages. 01.山下智久 (Yamapi) – Nocturne 02.TOTALFAT – See You Later, Take Care 03.Aqua Timez – この星に 04.화나 (Fana) – FANATICIZE 05.卍LINE – プリズンブレイク ~Free Your Mind~ feat.RUEED 06.F.I.R. – 需要你的爱 (feat. 信) 07.山下達郎 (Tatsuro Yamashita) – 希望という名の光 08.倖田來未 (Koda Kumi) – 走れ！ 09.河村隆一(Ryuichi) – 君の前でピアノを弾こう 10.Sleeq – Classism I love the Fana song, so that wins immediately. Honorable mention to Aqua Timez and Yams.

I'm a big fan of Scandal hurhur. Also FLiP, Kinoco Hotel, and Chatmonchy seems super old now, idk if they're still releasing stuff. Oh yes and Tsushimamire, saw them live actually and they're awesome. If we're just talkin' girl-fronted, then I gotta mention Jin, 101A and fra-foa, whom I know is defunct, but Idc, they were amazing.

Can't say I do, personally. I like old VK, but I also like "new" VK. If I want to listen to 00's or 90s VK, I have plenty of bands to choose from, I don't need the new stuff to sound the same as the old. Especially now that the new stuff is incorporating newer trends like electro and "core", which is pretty cool imo. As for what they wear....lol it all looks ridiculous so who cares.

I always prefer to buy digital over CD if possible. But since I'm too lazy to bother with Japanese giftcards blah blah, I have to hope they'll show up on Amazon or iTunes. I prefer Amazon, but will use iTunes if I really want it and it's nowhere else. I buy CDs through Amazon marketplace if it's there, if not then YesAsia and THEN CD Japan.

This. I got so many Korn vibes from Marrow lol. I voted Vulgar, but tbh I really enjoyed ARCHE and maybe with more listens it has the chance of taking over.

A LOT just in the first three months lol. Confirmed Knock Out Monkey - Mr. Foundation SEKAI NO OWARI - Tree Acid Black Cherry - L-エル ONE OK ROCK - 35xxxv Boom Boom Satellites - Shine Like A Billion Suns ROOKiEZ is PUNK'D - Remind DIV - Secret TBA 신화 - TBA JKS - TBA TMR - TBA Kazuya Yoshii - TBA

Re:the earlier topic about One Ok Rock. I've always thought they were generic af too and the guy's voice was annoying to boot, but they caught my attention again with the Kenshin ending songs and it seems like at least their last album is pretty good. The singer finally has some character in his voice and doesn't so obviously sound like a former JE idol. Last thing I heard was either Kanjo Effect or Niche Syndrome. Betting on the former though.

This has always really amused me lol, and it's not even just VK, there's certain song titles that are just everywhere. Memento Mori - Deathgaze, Buck-Tick, Sugar, Aqua Timez, Mr. Children, ワン★スター, etc. Songs just called "Rain" - Luna Sea, Sid, Glay, Silver Rose, Back-On, Buck-Tick, etc.

Black Gene for the Next Scene...or Awoi. 01.Dragon Ash – 夢で逢えたら 02.東京事変 – 雪国 03.ストレイテナー – GHOST OF CHRISTMAS PAST 04.flumpool – Snowy Nights Serenade 〜心までも繋ぎたい〜 05.少年ナイフ – Space Christmas 06.レミオロメン – 粉雪 07.ジン – スノーマン 08.Tommy heavenly6 – I LOVE XMAS 09.GO!GO!7188 – 雪が降らない街 10.fra-foa – つめたいあさ Christmas playlist lol...definitely the fra-foa song, such an amazing band.
