heresytrash 250 Posted January 12, 2017 I go to this Anime Convention every year, and one year they had a Visual Kei panel. However, the panelists backed out and the girl who subbed only talked about GACKT and how she stalked Dir en Grey when they were in our state for a show. So it wasn't very diverse. I thought about doing one myself, and have a few bands I want to talk about. But a lot of the bands I'm talking about are considered 'popular' I guess? So any suggestions would be helpful, though I won't change two bands I want to talk about for sure. [Only cause I'm bias, sue me] Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vanivani 558 Posted January 12, 2017 Talk about other popular bands to introduce people to it. I can help you with that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
heresytrash 250 Posted January 12, 2017 I kind of have the slideshow done, but want to work on it to make sure it's good. I started out with X Japan and wrote a few bands that pioneered the movement. If I can I can send it to you via message~ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Give a little history of visual kei, then introduce some current bands. You can send it to me whatever way is easiest. Just message me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Biopanda 2675 Posted January 12, 2017 @Ito will probably have some good suggestions for you since he's been doing the MH panel over at Anime Central for like 30 years now or something. 2 heresytrash and Atreides reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
