This album is not slaying anything. Most of the songs seem obviously rushed and uninspired. I really like moon a lot though also Perverted Martyr is okay. Going to have to listen to it further to write up a full review.

From CDJapan:
 
"Comes with a bonus DVD featuring music video(s), footage shot at his photo session in France, interview footage, a video message from KAMIJO"
 
plus I think he talks about some of specific songs, I don't understand Japanese sorry. It has a lot of him posing around in France with his outfit. One of the song is featured as the theme of said posing around. Same PV as the singles except Louis is metal version, some slight changes in the scenes, nothing too big though.

ojisan game too strong, too many to choose from~
 
...but I'll go with Atsushi (B-T) cuz for me he's the one it all goes back to. ;w;
 

I think with e plus you still need to be in japan... Maybe you can use a shoppingservice?

Thanks for the Malice Mizer photoset! Came in really great quality - and great penmanship too! *w* ♥

My major is japanese. It will take me a total of 3 years, and I'm just about ending my second year. I'll take next term at a university in Japan and then write my report about something (probably something about gender).
It feels kind of weird though because I have NO IDEA what to do next XD Like, you can't get a job with just that, I'd have to do something else which I don't have the slightest idea about... One of my teachers said that writing my report about something like genders, which is a very wide topic, could help me get a major degree but I don't know if I want that, I don't even know if I'd be able to. I'm really bad at both hearing and talking japanese I didn't even think I'd make it this far.
 
Does anyone else have a degree in japanese? If so what did it lead you to?

Don't mean to get off topic but I just felt like replying when I read all the other comments ;P
 
I've never heard this album, in fact I've only heard a few songs by YOHIO even though I'm swedish and he's become kind of "famous" here now for being so japanese, and OH SOOO big in Japan.
I don't deny he has fans in Japan, it's just rarely anyone who's into VK, from what I've seen it's mainly jpop lovers who thinks he's cute or something. Well, the thing that bothers me is the fact that VK has been pretty dead here since about 2010, then he showed and now there's some weird boom of people liking swedish bands who try to be VK :/ very confusing indeed. As a long time VK lover (of japanese bands) this annoys me and also it feels like a slight insult to japanese bands.
 
I went to a live gig in January, the mainact was a japanese indies band, and the opening band was Seremedy's vocalists new band. All the young kids looking like they really tried being VK but really mostly looked emo, was so into that! Then the japanese band enters the stage and half the crowd leaves O_o
I felt so sad for that poor band. They ended up playing for what, like 30 people since half left
 
Also, another thing that bugs me is that everyone here who hadn't the slightest idea what VK was before YOHIO now thinks it's a genre for kids in Japan, that he is AMAZINGLY big there and that all bands look like him. Which obviously is false, false and false. I don't have anything personal against him, but he's started something which has made it almost embarrassing to say that you like VK now... -.-

Yes it's possible, first you click on "edit" at the bottom (next to multiquote), and after have make that, you see three option "save changes" or "use full editor" (or cancel) use the second button, I hope it's clear, I can make a screen if you don't understand
 
Do you has try to sell your tape on any japanese site (if it's possible) ? maybe you could be more chance to sell it than here

I don't want to defend Dada being childish (and also posting REALLY weird comments), but I also think Kiwamu and Dada seeming rude have something to do with the fact there's a huge difference in how you talk/act in Japan and the west.
First off, manymany VK/none VK bands NEVER respond to fanmails, that's probably the most common thing, they just post on their blogs etc, people comment and send fanmail (and hopefully the band reads them), but they never respond and I think that's a great way of preventing these kinds of misunderstandings.
What people don't seem to get here IT IS RUDE (in japanese culture) to directly speak your mind. You don't (if you want to stay polite) just post: I don't like this new release. Or: your voice was better before. These are very direct and rude things since you in Japan almost never speak your mind, especially not to a person superior to you. And I think these types of comments coming from fans and the fact they're barely speaking english (google translate can really f** with the simplest sentences), help making situations like this worse.
 
^ Dada's 43 years old!

I feel like most stuff released after Noble's been bad... I sort of liked Holy Grail (Masquerade and Judicial Noir was really good), but the last release was just a big meh IMO.
