I feel really sad about this.... I love Soft Ballet and Ken has really made some amazing songs for himself and for other artists ;_; I was so looking forward to see him live next time I'm in Tokyo....

I made a bid on the VHS on facebook but never got any reply/confirmation....

Don't forget Morrie from Dead End, he lived in the US for a long time so his english is really good!

To be honest I haven't really listened to that much of Calmando Qual XD Since I like arc:g.Noel I probably should try out the early stuff.*random*

I don't hate Kiwamu nor the label, BUT like people have said before me the bands are pretty shit XD The only bands I listen to from Starwave is Blam Honey and Velvet Eden, and those are old bands so I don't feel they got that influenced by the label (if the label ever influenced any of the bands). But that's my main issue, I feel like the bands on that label are a bit the same when it comes to the music and also like you yourself mentioned the PV's are very much the same. You can also see on the design of the flyer that they're from Starwav since Kiwamu makes many of them. Also I went to one of their events in 2014, with just Starwave acts and it felt...weird And Kiwamu was there like a big brother just watching over everything from the back. Unfortunatley I talked to him, or rather he gave me instructions and I felt like he had NO sense of customer service, he had a very harsh and annoyed feeling to him and I didn't even do anything wrong, I was just taking part in the event. Yet the way he talked to me was as if he fucking hated me XDD which is a kind of weird way to approach people. However, I don't know much about the label and I don't really care that much either but I feel like it's weird to blame it on the label that bands break up... Has that ever been official, that bands blame Kiwamu for break ups or having to quit music?

Seriously? The only people who acctually prefer, or think any of the post 2010 is better than 1st-3rd era has been new fans... I mean I like Double Twelve but it's nothing compared to Ningyou Shoukan or Street of ALICE IMO I also think Dada's vocals has changed for the worse. Sound like he's trying too hard...

Im a bit confused, I follow BUCK-TICK and haven't heard anything about a new release, only that WHEN they release something it will be on Victor Entertainment. So I'm curious about your source... I've only read this; http://www.barks.jp/news/?id=1000122845 and then also blog-tick.

Still have Biosphia Yuki chekis? If so could I see some pictures?

1: Do you buy multiple versions of releases, or buy at all? (Judgement-Free-Zone) I have different levels of fandom, so I have bands I'd probably be concidered to be obsessed about, then there's the ones I follow/listen to. If it's bands I'm obsessing about or members sideprojects I buy them all! and also sometimes I have 2 of the same so I can keep one in mint and open and listen to one. Then there's bands I just buy the releases I really like. 2: Do you collect cheki or other non-music related items from bands? Yes! I buy it all, from chekis to stickers, photos, you name it (again, this only goes for my favorite bands, but I do have one or 2 chekis or photos with bands I just enjoy aswell) 3: Follow them on Ameblo, Twitter? Of course~ 4: Would you follow them on the street? If I saw them I probably would. I'd probably be too shy to say anything though:P I won't say which band but I accidentally got a members homeaddress and I concidered going there just to see how he lives last time I was in Japan, but then I ended up not going. Mostly because I felt like I don't want to scare him if he'd see me there and also I realised that's taking it a bit too far. 5: Dig through their trash? (Judgment-Free-Zone) Közi is one of my obsessions, and I went to one of his "talk" events last year. This took place at a tiny bar and during the event he smoke and drank so when he left after the event I was very close to picking up one of his left over, burnt cigarettes but I didn't... that's the closest I've got to digging up peoples trach and I'd not go further even I have limits. 6: Does Visual Kei or other forms of your musical taste influence your style or personal life? If by style you mean clothes, then maybe but not very obviously.My personallife I'd say it has. Because of visual kei and my favorite bands I began studying japanese which also led me to going there several times and experience lots more than just music (and having a bachelor degree in japanese studies). I'd say it changed my life. 7: Desire to move or visit Japan influenced by music? Yes, (see above), but like I mentioned VK might have draged me to japan which made me realise japan is a very beautiful and amazing country,but it's not enough to make me want to live there. So the reason I'd like to live in Japan isn't because the music, maybe a tiny bit, but because of their amazing culture. I just love it. 8: Do you read dirt-sheets of bands, like rumours, gossip, etc...? not much, I try and stay out of contact with other fans. I've met/talked to some very interesting people thanks to forums etc, but mostly I have bad experiences with other fans. I like to keep my fandom to myself. 9: Ever fantasize about being friends with band members? (JFZ) Yes, but it depends on the band/musician. I follow bands and certain members I know I probably wouldn't like to know IRL and then I follow and admire those I'd like to have another relationship to. Don't get me wrong, I'm not talking about a romantic relationship but a friendship. Some of these people I find very interesting and I'd love to be able to talk to them like I do with my friends. 10: Do you want to be in a Visual Kei band (or any other kind of band)? No way, never even thought about it XD

well that's not really true since Hora's released loads of soloalbums My guess is Schwarz Stein had to step back since Kaya was busy with Femme Fatale, so I'm happy they broke up. And Hora hinted at a full album

Did anyone here attend and knows more about what happened? =/

Edited *up*

A bit and I've seen photos, it looks beautiful*_*

So you're from Mauritius, cool, I have a friend from Mauritius...but wshe's living in Sweden ^^

are you even sure it will be a new cd... because they never made an announcment about it except for the tweet announcing a oneman in 2016, and all their tweets has had the "new album announcment" ever since Blanc et noir....

Isn't it supposed to be P after O and not I?.... Pride of Mind

I'm a sceptic believer I'm very interested in reading about paranormal stuff but I'm not sure I believe it. I've had a few experiences that I'm still not sure what they were, if it was just coincidence or acctually something paranormal... still nothing HUGE, so I'm not sure.

In general I didn't miss anything, I just love being in Japan too much. BUT, if I'll point out smaller things, I miss the swedish carbonated water (we have tons of flavours) and licorice! (my mom hade to send me licorice when I was in japan for 1 semester). Also, like mentioned above, I miss the fruit/vegetable prices in sweden... I feel so unhealthy in japan since I barely buy fruits or vegetables...

I can't really say I'm influenced or copying someones clothing style. As a matter of fact, these latest years I haven't really been bothered with clothes (I'm working at a warehouse so I can't really wear much else than jeans). BUT, in my teens, when I first came in contact with visual kei and jrock I was very much a tomboy who didn't care about clothes at all, and I didn't really like the thought of how women "are supposed to be". So when I came in contact with musicians like Mana from Malice Mizer and Moi Dix Mois and Dada from Velvet Eden I was so fascinated by how feminine they looked. I thought, and still think, they were prettier than any woman I've ever seen and the fact they were men made me so interested and also gave me a feeling of wanting to look like them. So, I took the huge step of starting to be more feminine as in wearing skirts and dresses, as I never had before.

Still waiting for the last episodes of Algernon -.-'' Randomly came to think of Antique Bakery yesterday while seeing one of my BL loving friends. I had a vague memory of reading there's a japanese drama of that (I've only seen the Korean movie) but I can't seem to find it shared anywhere. Has anyone seen it or just knows where I might find it?

Small VK bands don't.Some venues have staff to help and some just arrive from the train with all their luggage, doing their own make up and setting up their own stuff on stage. Some venuesdon't even have the curtain, so you can see them while they're doing their thing (and even if they have the curtain you can see their feet best entertainment ever XD)

How did you get the DVD? *_*
