    I'm almost glad he's barely relevant in the VK scene, otherwise we'd be getting a wave of autumn albums titled ~L'oiseau de feau~ or smth

    Furik reacted to WhirlingBlack in DIR EN GREY - TOUR16-17 FROM DEPRESSION TO ________   
    The last show of the tour was definitely the best, in my opinion.
    The band and especially Kyo was really fired up and even though this in general has been a more energetic and "positive" tour (in the sense of the band actually being happy to interact with the audience) this last show was really a stand out. I think out of the many performances of Rinkaku I've seen this was probably the best also. When the show ended and the lights came back on people just kept screaming for another encore until the venue staff started forcing us out. I also managed to catch Shinyas wristband after the concert, which was a first for me. Nice to have some real Dir artifacts to wear to future gigs.
     
    A funny anecdote from the second to last show though is that not only did Die manage to lodge a waterbottle in the ceiling of the live house when throwing stuff, he also managed to break his guitar during one of the songs and just ran around teasing the crowd instead of getting a backup and continuing playing. Similarly, Toshiya broke off a string from his bass during THE IIID EMPIRE on the last show and then proceeded to just pull the rest off as well.
     
    I want to add that this was probably the most visually interesting Dir en grey lives I've attended too, lots and lots of lightning and laser effects and clever use of video screens and light in combination. I'm hoping they will release at least some partial footage from this tour since they did film at least some footage at most of the dates, but you never know.
     
    Finally, some advice for people who want to attend lives in Japan, never stand next to Japanese guys during concerts if you want to have a good time. They generally just stand around or at most halfheartedly wave their arm a bit. I did that mistake during parts of the last show and I ended up having to move because they were so boring. The girls always go all in so just stick by them if you want to actually participate in the headbanging and stuff.
     
    This was it for this tour for me but if anyone has any questions about it I'll do my best to answer them. I won't be participating in DSS but I'll most likely end up at parts of the kisou tour at least so expect some kind of reports then.

    Okay heres some mindless rambling. 
     
    The last two episodes in my opinion made the whole season. Season 5 was slow AF but Season 6 started to pick it up a pace. Everything seemed to fall into place and the music in the last episode was absolutely stellar. I've been listening to the soundtrack nonstop since the finale. I haven't been impressed with the music since Season 3. A lot of fans become devided after finales but I think we can all agree that Season 6 finale was fantastic. The acting was on point and it answered a lot of questions that left me feeling fulfilled until 7 comes. I just don't know what's going to hold me over until then!

    Furik got a reaction from YuyoDrift in MH FEATURED POLL #31: Do you believe in (romantic) love?   
    I do not.
    I read an article yesterday about how the newer generation of youth do not even know what love is. The 80s and 90s babies have been brainwashed, so to say, with what love even is. The media's portrayal of love has obviously been poured into a seismic swamp. The Snapchat children send dick pics thinking that'll attract someone to bang. That's not love.
    I've hand a handful of meaningful long relationships that have lasted more than a year at a time but the constant dread of being cheated on (or me cheating on them) ultimately take tolls.
    No one has security and trust anymore and I ultimately cannot believe in true love. Not in this day and age anymore.

    I don't think even the most critic voices would dare to say anything negative about them at this point seeing as they played a huge role (along with other acts) in this 00s-10s VK wave or w/e you name it (i.e. how we, 20-somethings and prolly 30s know VK in its glory).

    I've never heard of tinnitus before until about a week or two ago. I wonder how much different the disorder is compared to normal ringing? The ringing you hear when you concentrate and are really quiet and you hear the ringing?

    I've had my fair share of pets (on page 3). However, I realized I never posted pictures of my dog Chu Chu.
     
    She was born in mid March of 2009. I adopted her when she was 3 weeks old.

     

     

     
    Here she is at 6 months.

     
    And 6 months.
