I disagree :v, I think these underestimating much this band, are not a band that makes finals tours in places for 500 people, or never enters the top 50 of ORICON, there is currently no vk band that sells as much as they. Kiryu is bigger than you think .

 

Visual Kei is smaller than you think.

 

Yeah, their medium for tour finals are 3000 people. Thats all. They didnt even sold out TDCH some months before Budokan.

if you know japanese just take a fast search about their budokan and you'll see many people making fun about how few people was there.

 

But i wont flood this topic trying to show you the truth hah Buy a ticket and go to see by yourself, i think you'll be kinda shocked

 

EDIT : I JUST READ THAT YOU SAID KIRYU SELLS MORE THAN GAZETTE AND SID I SHOULDN'T EVEN HAVE STARTED DISCUSSING WITH YOU LMFAO

EDIT 2 : Kiryu is one of my favorite bands. I dont care for GazettE and SID but wow.... JUST USE YOUR BRAIN

What the laughter I do not think that compares with miyavi Budokan or Tokyo Dome of the GazettE :v.

 

And I repeat all know that vk is small in Japan, so an indie band that constantly enters the top 10 of ORICON is important ... and definitely in Kiryu budokan there were more than 4000 people.

I still think it's really fucked up for Kiryu that only 5 people went to their last Budokan concert and they also insisted on standing as far away from the stage as possible

[Peace Heavy mk II 7200]

 2 of the 5 people at their last budokan concert were actually janitorial staff

ok (stupid google traslate), but still even not show me a source on the Budokan concert, tell you what a friend does not work, I could invent I was there and say it was a huge success.

@donwea & @ricchubunny: If you two have anything more to say about this "Budokan sold out/not sold out" nonsense, take it up via PM. This is a news thread about 己龍 RELEASING A NEW ALBUM, not a debate thread on whether or not one of their goddamn shows sold out.

 

To the rest of you all, I'm sorry I didn't step in sooner.

 

Opinions on the actual news that should be discussed: I'm looking forward to the new album. 九尾 was EVERYTHING to me and 天照 was really good (sans b-sides). I still haven't listened to 彩, because I the artworks/band look were all so hideous that I just block that one out of my mind (lol). Their previous album was rather solid, it just took a few listens for it to grow on me.

 

I did not recognise Isshiki at all in the group shot. He looks pretty good. As usual, the red guy looks awesome and, idk, maybe the green guy looks less stupid. I think some of them would look much better if they didn't do the "two different contacts" thing; that trend needs to die.

Haha, I thought 天照 was alright but I reaaaaaally liked all the B-sides from that single. 彩 is similar for me - OK A-side, but really really liked the B-sides. Don't think about the visuals too much! I don't even remember what the band look was, lol.

 

Kiryu in general is still capable of putting out some mediocre stuff and some omfg mind blowing stuff, I don't expect this new album to be any different.

They're supposed to be demons or something.

*shrug*

The title of the album 百鬼夜行 is an expression that means "pandemonium", a word whose etymology is pan (all) + daemonium (evil spirts/demons)

And if you interpret 百鬼夜行 literally, it means "hundred demons traveling at night"

.. maybe

 

I have a horn fetish, so I think this is Junji's best look ever. mmm. horns.

[Seimeisen 4406]

Now that I think about it, I'm kind of surprised the band didn't make up a word of their own, like they have for previous album titles. Thanks for the translation/interpretation, @peffy !

[Original Saku 1593]

百鬼夜行 actually refers to the "Night Parade of One Hundred Demons" which is a popular concept in Japanese Folklore...

that is most likely why they are wearing demon like costumes, makeup, etc.

I think 百鬼夜行 is a common word because always appear in anime like 少年陰陽師 or ぬらりひょんの孫 (maybe more but I didn't watch anime these years)

Yeah, I just looked it up in a dictionary, forgot to check Wiki.

Probably has a common meaning, as an expression, while also referring to the folklore concept.

..maybe.

It does make more sense that Kiryu is specifically using the folklore concept.

Mahiro wears Tengu's clothes and thoe blue balls on Ishiki's forehead is supposed to be tarantula eyes I think... 

[IGM_Oficial 1964]

I didn't know about the concept of "Hyakkiyagyou". Speaking of which, I remembered that the GazettE and Kaya have, respectively, a music video collection (VHS) and an EP, both named after that.
