  1. I'm think about taking someone here to Japan with my friends and I. Like hold a contest or have similar taste in the same band and get to know one other.. I'll pay airfare, but all other expenses are on you. This is all gonna happen in November though.

      I'm out of college, don't have a stable job and currently have money to pay for my stay in Japan. It'd me nice of you if you want pay me the airfares hahaha

  2. So~I totes came across this post that was passively agressive indirected at me without saying it was about me, but I totes know it's about me. All I can say to that is, get the fuck off your high horse bitch, just because someone uploads your favorite bandoman-samas CD, doesn't mean he isn't going to die of starvation and don't act like your ass don't download music either, would you kindly delete all the music you don't own then? That's what I thought, sit your as...

      Had a convo like this once on youtube (but didn‘t react to it). That idiot even proceed to claim how foreign CD sales were the reason why VK bands continue and stated that she was so much better of a person for supporting them (sorry, but I still think that foreign sales make out maybe 2% of their whole income). Some VK fans are just delusional.

      For most of last year, FJ was taking mercari orders with no problems at all, I placed quite a few actually. A friend of mine tried to get a mercari order sent to her tenso address after they stopped shipping to FJ, but couldn't go through with it because they don't take foreign payment cards.

      I ordered one thing out of Mercari through Remambo and it actually went through and I got the item; I then tried to buy something from a different Mercari seller through FJ, but by then, FJ stopped their services for Mercari...plus I hear that certain Mercari sellers don't do business with foreigners :/ idk, this is all too confusing.

      Thanks for remambo lol they look cheaper compared to FJ now. I think after Mbok died, all the xenophobic people went to mercari.

  4. By the end of the summer, there will be no more uploads from me. I've been called a bitch, elitist, e.t.c. I spend my hard earn money to share bands I love with you guys. I've been with TW/MH since the beginning, some of you even have my personal cell number. I'm trying a new twitter @nameinbiography I'm not very social-able. You can also catch me in discord. I'll still be here giving my opinions or fan girling or stuff. I don't dislike any of you, some of you even make me laugh with your wits and I respect you for it. I'm very approachable so don't be afraid of me cause I'm more afraid of you.

      It's just built over the years and I finally got tired of being the person to say  yes or no to certain releases and if they can't get their way they throw a fit. If you guys know me, I always share releases I have if you ask me to, I don't even upload them here, I do it because of course I like the band, and you like the band, so it's like sharing things in common.  Random throwaway account  dm me for releases when they know I have it; then don't talk to me ever again until I have something they want or throw a fit because I won't give it to them because I don't know them. I know you all for so long it wouldn't bother me if you asked me for something I have that you want. I grew up here; with most of you, and I really do like all of you. Trust me you guys have been awesome to me, random throwaway accounts, can't really tell who they are, but I'll still be around. I won't publicly upload anymore, but if you slide me a DM and I known you for so long, it wouldn't bother me to give you it.

      Why would you listen to them?

      Do their thoughts matter? 

      When have they ever shared? 

      Do they give emphaty to those who wants fulfilment in these times?

      Know this I've reached a point where I can no longer learn or understand because I've been in the middle of every thought and all I can muster to say is I appreciate and gratify to those who share their thoughts and emotions without second thoughts but you do what you do because you care about everyone it doesent matter if he called you names believe me all I can ever share in these deppresive times is just a little smile to give hope to people on this war on love

      I'm sorry that people have treated you like this, and I totally get why you'd stop sharing. I'm gonna miss that good shit™, but I'd much rather you feel comfortable and happy. I hope that they'll leave you alone now 😢

      Maybe, but i think they also sell items that only have 1 in stock. Anyway i'll write them a message to know what they would do in a situation like this, in case an item is sold at both websites at the same time.

    4. hiroki

      hiroki

      actually they did say in their auction profile page that they will confirm if item is in stock after you bid the item and win it. tbh i don't think this is the best way of doing things as they will eventually accrue tons of negative ratings since YJA gives 1 negative rating to the seller for each auction they cancel that's not at the request of the bidder.

      do you have dhl in your area? usps and fedex is stalinist american garbage, they lost my shit, and like I think the employees are treated like garbage as well, because ones I saw in person were overworked a.f., but so f nice to deal with

      I also heard a complaint from a black person on some random art board years ago abt delivery person losing shit because something was too heavy or smth, and she was like wtf is this, at least you have a delivery job, get ouT. anyway they'll likely find it, although one p. expensive order from the us to canadia never arrived 4 me.

    4. JRD

      JRD

      Yeah I have DHL, but they're more expensive T.T I believe that they're treated like shit too. the lady I got off the phone with was super surprised I was extremely polite to her. Hopefully they'll find it.

      Fedex is generally very expensive. But if you're using FromJapan, they actually have a special deal with Fedex and everything below a certain volumetric weight (something like 3 cubic metres) is about 25% of the normal price they charge. So for FJ i usually choose Fedex since it's even cheaper than surface mail (lol) and takes 2 days to arrive.

    3. eiheartx

      eiheartx

      I paid custom fees with Fedex so be careful.

  17. Why do all these new Vkei bands dress like Kpop rejects? I guess asking your friend who knows how to sew or a mistu/Tsunagari doesn't work anymore. Go big and flop like Xodiack, at least that's an attempt at visual kei artistry. Remember it's us gajins fault for not buying their digital mini.

      Cheaper. Harajuku fashion is a lot more pedestrian anyways, I think the days of extreme styles are over. 

    3. filth_y

      filth_y

      In general, the brands, magazines, stores for "rockish"/"gothic" vk style (not the extreme costumes) changed/vanished completely in the last 3-4 years I felt. At first everywhere stores changed towards a more colorful/"hip hop" look and since 2-3 years K-Pop Style. And that is what I felt I could looking at people especially in Harajuku. The only store l feel is left is Civarize and even that is more miss than hit lately for me (with the renewal of 109mens so many cool stores closed and change to such a bad style in my opinion..).

    4. JRD

      JRD

      I know that fashion trend, but why does it has to go into the melting pot that is visual kei. I read somewhere from an article from the 90s, it's all about the costumes and atmosphere, and a shoujo magazine character coming back to life. It's just being lazy. I have a lot of offshots of bands designing their costumes from the past. Now you can throw on Uniqlo/H&M with visual kei makeup, and bam now you're a visual band. This should be branded ストリート系.
