idk why people think it's going to end up on a BD/DVD, i wouldn't get my hopes up -- i'm pretty sure they just filmed it for showing on WOWOW on the 3rd to make up for the fact that they got cut from the VSJ broadcast

one of them is vaguely wider lol

that's how i started and i'm approaching 3 years playing RIP Eli is good, third year best year, welcome to idol hell

@Biopandawho r ur love live waifus tho

the second page of that article you posted is straight juice...

i've seen the following speculated on tanuki... it sounds like they really don't know anything 1. drugs 2. stat rape (with Rio's case there was no way people wouldn't guess this tho) 3. ore ore sagi it's very interesting to me that like lynch. with Akinori, Chanty has seemed to be able to dodge the press for now. i really wonder what separates cases like Rio's from cases like Shia's but at this point i have nfi

don't ever tell me what to do, the last time i got into one of these i made k_m divulge his deep secrets about money for kawaii rendezvous 👀

@Donttalkbackin some way or another he didn't fit the stipulations for a "sincere romantic relationship", which as you kindly informed us up the thread, is usually determined by parental consent. if parental consent was involved he wouldn't have been arrested. what is your point with all this? the dude provided information to the police and the police found that it was sufficient enough to arrest him. if your problem is with the law itself then that's fine, but it doesn't change the reality of what happened and the fact that as it stands, what he did is considered a crime, and one he very stupidly incriminated himself of in an unrelated discussion with law enforcement.

my bad i thought we were talking about the actual situation and not fantasy. consensual relationship with over 20 male + <18 girl + no parental approval = misdemeanor

Except he did just walk up in there to talk about another issue and ended up confessing (whether unknowingly or not).

idgaf who you stan or how hard you want to do it, just don't bring incorrect information when you do it

I'm getting irritated w/ people who didn't read previous posts or didn't/can't read the related articles jumping in so I'll reiterate: The police questioned him on an unrelated matter, and he provided the information about his relationship w/ this girl. "The discovery of the incident started when suspect Kenta Murata AKA "Rio" spoke to the police regarding troubles concerning the band's activities, where it was confirmed that a female high school student who was a LONDBOY fan was a victim."

HE INCRIMINATED HIMSELF for fuck's sake she didn't tell anyone! he told the police about it! nobody is trying to yoko ono LONDBOY ffs

yeah, with the string of arrests and the actual intentional exploitation of underage fans (see: dudes asking for highschoolers on tanuki) at this point you need to do your due diligence. even if it's not a revenge thing no minor's parent would be happy to hear she's banging some colorful NEET and would happily nail your gross ass to the wall. edit: wtf the yahoo article says the police talked to him about another matter and then he incriminated himself. so y'all don't have to pity him for getting entrapped by a gya... his dumb ass got himself arrested

final guest bassist was announced as J, who will also be in the music video coming out with the EP. tbh the band must be creaming themselves... the tracklist is also public now: 1. SIN (instrumental) 2. TRIGGER (ft. J) 3. BLACK OUT DESTROY (ft. Hitoki) 4. KALEIDO (ft. T$UYO$HI) 5. DIES IRAE (ft. Yasui Yoshihiro) 6. SORROW (ft. YUKKE)

you called it

i couldn't remember if they sold it out or not lol 😅

they actually sold out shinkiba coast! i'm impressed... this will be one of their biggest shows (if not the biggest)?

venue scouting is the smart idea but in my later years gps gives me false confidence that i will always find it immediately, even though that's patently untrue.... i have very little experience with Osaka livehouses so i hope i get the chance to try that group someday -- aside from BIG CAT i have only been to nishikujo brand new. not a huge fan of the trains overhead... columns are the actual worst. i rebuke shinjuku loft and nagoya bottom line because of it. shinjuku loft especially is trash tier. if you need to put a screen on the column that shows a blurry live cam of the stage for the poor girls who are stuck behind it, maybe your livehouse isn't designed well. i also hate shibuya glad because i fell down the stairs in front of the bar every. single. time. and my dignity can only take so much i realized i didn't give CHOP the love it deserves, and Nagoya's electric lady land group of live houses are all pretty nice and home-y IMO.

this is a neat thread. i thought there would be more overlapping firsts. mine was Shinjuku MARZ in 2009. if you haven't had the pleasure of trying to find that place, it fucking sucks. i asked at the same koban twice until eventually some random guy at a conbini was like "you idiots have passed by a lot, do you need help?" and walked us over to it. i don't understand why he knew where it was tbh. i went mostly to see born, but the event was D-ZEL's kaisan live and the other bands there were Like Absolute Myself, ReivieЯ, DEPAIN, and Administrator. i went with a girl who didn't really have much experience with rock music and she was pissed when someone from DEPAIN threw shit at her (I told her it was a pick and she picked it up). the venue basically cleared out after all the bands but D-ZEL were on, i felt a bit bad for them. in a similar vein, do you have a favorite livehouse? mine probably would have been Shibuya AX, RIP.

wonder if takumi from sukekiyo will help with the mastering this time too?? between him and ryo they have some interesting collaborators. their last EP was the last stand with their "ex-visual kei" period before they came crawling back to it, i hope they can carry with the momentum their last two albums have given them. i was very surprised to hear that their comeback oneman has sold enough tickets so far that they decided to open up the second floor... this will be an interesting time for them

@Carmelzors This one hit multiple threads on 2ch that have been archived, seems it was sometime in Sep 2005. But he deleted it because of the backlash. Certainly not too recent, anyway.

@nekkichi, @Peace Heavy mk II Yeah, it was 蒼/Ao, and Devil Kitty Yuuga because he is the true queen of tea spilling tbh. (This site documents Yuuga's blog posts about it although they're in Japanese, just in case anyone wants to do some light reading. The site also has archived posts/blog entries from some of the other drama I mentioned as well. If it happened in '03-'07, you can probably find receipts there.) edit: just realized i misremembered the family connection -- Yuuga's sibling wasn't the girl but is actually Ao (his little bro)

@BiopandaYuuki was apparently a rude ho w/ a lot of shitty stuff to say about women and some girl named Kira was not having it. Plus he didn't pay back some money he owed? But they made up 7 years later and she posted a pic of them shaking hands. Actually she documents the whole thing on her blog, and even said she got permission from the other bands to do it at the time. Visual kei is great tbh

i was looking for a thread like this to discuss some of the legendary happenings i've been reading about so -the guy from HenzeL getting pelted with natto during a show and heckled to the point his mom tried to stop them -KLACK showing a beheading video during a big festival while being the most irrelevant band there -the time Rentrer en Soi kicked out their guitarist who happened to be Yuuga's brother who impregnated a girl after trying to make him make her get an abortion, and Yuuga got so mad Satsuki had to get on his hands and knees and apologize on stage -when Koma from kurara zeroshiki stole a song from an ero game and got caught -when Byou/Toge and Yuuto from JOKER told Kazuhi he had to leave the band right after they did a show -the time Vogus Image's vocalist accused Tora of stealing their shit, and Tora clapped back by calling him a druggie -Zipang's entire existence: the head of their label was arrested for meth, and the vocalist said he was so fucked up on drugs that they couldn't even talk to him, so he decided to leave the band. But the label head posted on their site and claimed the vocalist raped someone and ran off with million of yen, and that he had fired them because of it. -Yukiya from JILS kicking someone for recording a show -when Sugizo got a parking ticket and said it was like being in Germany under Hitler -Vidoll writing a whole dramatic song about the time someone posted Rame's email address on tanuki
