    eh, kinda feel Japanese are the worst of the East Asian dramas but there's some good ones  of course that come to mind right now---

     

    I enjoyed a lot:

    hana kimi (really funny!!)

    ryuusei no kizuna (good mystery, family drama)

    zettai kareshi (corny but really endearing)

    1litre no namida 

     

     

    good (but flawed):

    hana yori dango (korean and taiwanese versions (and boys) are better)

    hotaru no hikari (enjoyable but the actions of the characters is frustrating)

    nobuta wo produce (good concept, story went nowhere)

    gokusen (worth watching but repetitive! Don't go beyond season 1) 

    nodame cantabile (again, great start but didn't progress well for me

    yamato nadeshiko shichi henge- I thought I was gonna hate this one, but enjoyed it a lot.  Silly but good message and kept me interested

    agree with comments above.  MONSTERS was a great album for how fun it was and how well the songs worked live.  Redeemer had some great tracks amongst their best, just a few filler boring tracks as well that weighed it down.  MIRROR will always be my favorite and coll:set really is one of those perfect raw VK albums.

    bible was decent, but their last albums have not been good enough to justify releasing 2 albums at once now... really hope these don't suck. Quality always over quantity.. But could be great I guess

    Well i don't really think about a vocalist "skills" if he can stir up some good vibes, and express the truest emotions by merely singing, i deem him/her a good vocalist.

    here goes the list of vocalist i either don't like, or feel they've lost their ability to do their thing well.

    Yuuki since eros, so awful to listen to...

    Ice (EROS) i don't approve of what he is doing in black gene, doesn't suit him in any way, i want XodiacK back.

    Byou, since ancient rain he lost his ability to sing well.

    Satoshi? Whatever his name is, Girugämesh is pretty much dead to me since music.

    Rayka, wtf is he doing in realies... it's horrible.

    Kyo, i've yet to hear anything good from that man.

    Mao since... dress? probably a release further back the line, he seriously needs to pull himself together, big time.

    Yohio, his voice... just no, it's an insult to anything that's vkei.

    Vocalist from larc en ciel, terribly dull and boring vocals, same goes for luna sea miyavi and x japan.

    Vocalist from lolita23q, since they got that new one, everything just went down the drain.

    Vocalist from HERe:NE, she is so annoying, goes right on my nerves. (it's a girl right? please tell me it is)

    Let's finish the list with SuG and Lmc, dull and boring vocals.

    Phew, was good to let out some steam <3

    mind is blown... Ryuichi from LS included in a bad vocalist list.. that should be made illegal for musical blasphemy!

    DIR EN GREY for sure!

    the only band suprised me with each new album.

    they make better music than the last one everytime they release an album.

    i can keep listening their music for long period without get bored.

    for GazettE, they are interesting, but still not impact enough.

    DIM is their best imo, they didn't release anything better after that.

    my thoughts exactly. Gazette has interesting songs, but hardly ever an album I'm really impressed with (save DIM). Deg always manages to impress me somehow!

    I didn't realize it was such a huge number of people (at least the ones who completely abandoned japanese rock/look down on it now). I still listen to a lot of Japanese music. TBH Korean music to me is mostly BIG BANG and 2NE1 which have become two of my most favorite and listened to groups. Other than them though most kpop and visual kei isn't that different in terms of originality and innovation. I like kpop because I like electronic, RB, dance music just as much as folk, heavy rock, classical, etc. I need to get my dance on with some heavy beats.

    Also, anyone who tries to deny that they used to like VK or pretends kpop is more superior and complex is an idiot.
