They’re not everyone’s cup of tea. Not everyone likes the direction they took. Mejibray fans can be obsessive and grating. I do think some of the hate stems from the same reason people give Nickelback and other bands shit - not to remotely compare popularity, but considering how small the vkei fan base is, if you’re seeing something you’re not into everywhere, it’s going to annoy you more. 1 psychonnect_rozen reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Aferni 2381 Posted May 17, 2019 NEGA. I swear people give Jin big shit but then go stan bands with vocalists that sounds like a fork sliding across stoneware plates. 3 Ultra Silvam, 123Sandman321 and Seimeisen reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I've considered leaving the VK fandom from time to time, but I've been talked out of it because it shouldn't be the loony fans who influence your tastes. Looking back, the people who talked me out were absolutely right. Idk, I guess it just doesn't sit right with me when people give up on something they love just because they don't like the other people who do. I'm not blaming them; I just wish it didn't happen. I've found this to be the case with Meji fans a lot, so I just thought like putting this. 2 ChimeraKei and psychonnect_rozen reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I've found this to be the case with Meji fans a lot, so I just thought like putting this. Trust me, I usually hate being part of fandoms sometimes. I'm in a ton of fandoms that are considered toxic and I always hate being lumped into them. That said though, the fandoms I'm in are good when good and are REALLLY bad when bad. Shipping bandmates, calling people "fake fans", death threats and harassment of the band is what I'm tired of seeing. I have not seen this kind of stuff in the VK community yet, but I have heard some stories. I have met some of the nicest people in these fandoms so just calling all of them lunatics is a bit of a stretch. So far, the community on here and in VK in general is one of the nicest, kind-hearted, and just all around full of awesome people! 3 karai · ebi, Gesu and Miku70 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I’d never trade my time as a Mejibray fan for anything, but tbh I didn’t really know want I was getting myself into with Mejibray since I went to my first live on a whim, LOL. Man the overseas fan base harassed the shit out of me. 1 Gesu reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kamijo-fan here, too. Even I find his antics sometimes creepy, but well, his shows and music are fun. they're too precious to hate non jk band- I love Aqua. Their music is sappy but it's happy upbeat music. vk-Baboo. I know,wtf right? 1 Masato reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

tenshi 1 Posted May 18, 2019 R指定 lmao Don't know if it necessarily counts seeing as it's less people hating the band and more people just hating Mamo, for obvious reasons. He seems to only be hated by western vk fans from what I've seen. Anyway, yeah, I don't think they're hated as a band or for their music but... Vexent too. Once again, don't know if it counts because the only people I see really hating on them are The Gazette fans and Lynch fans. Can't say their reasons aren't good, Vexent very clearly likes ripping off Lynch and their song The Fates seems suspiciously similar to Deux by the Gazette. I don't think it's as obvious as the Lynch rip off song though. Mako also gets a lot of hate for his Ruki-esque makeup lmfao. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Himeaimichu 1535 Posted May 18, 2019 Memento Mori. People used to attack them because they were similar to Kiryu, but honestly, they sounded nothing alike. They're actually more closer to a GazettE clone than a Kiryu clone (I mean, they sampled the Hyena riff). I liked R Shitei's early stuff, and I did like some of their more later stuff back when I was more into pop punk and what I thought was emo lmao. I like a lot of Nu Metal bands within Vkei. I'm also a huge fan of Eternal era Gazetto, which most of the fanbase doesn't seem to like as much, which is understandable, because it's some weird sounding stuff, and they did borrow a few Dir en Grey riffs during that era lol.
