Still coming to terms with Atushi passing is hard but gotta say this:All you young BUCK-TICK fans overseas are amazing. For a veteran of this scene for over 2 decades now seeing all that love they were getting from you all overseas continually growing was really beautiful to see.
When I worked as a host in the countryside was so shocked that EVERYONE seemed to know this song. Even normies who came in.
It came up on Karaoke so many times. 'Tis a legendary one for sure. 🥺🙏✨
Reita's passing is so sad☹️
for people my age early PSC era in vkei was our foundation,
When I lived in the countryside it was an easy thing to connect on with locals same age. As a kid watching this over and over was part of the fuel that got me here
it's true: 00s was peak
蜉蝣、ガゼット、ナイトメア、ヴィドール、雀羅、12012、サディ、デュールクォーツ、Sugar、Phantasmagoria、Dio、Unsraw、雅、Kagrra、D'espairs Ray、MUCC、己龍、メリー、メトロノーム、lynch、シド、AnCafe、Schwarz Stein、D、+ that’s not even listing hidden gems
I truly think vkei twts biggest downfall is that newer fans really only seem to cling to 90s or new vkei and while those are all good, you’re missing SOOOO much by ignoring the 00s bands I swear to you
seeing all you vk bebes all sad about a disbandment reminds me of when vidoll disbanded, I cried, I cringed at the bad stuff after, laughed at the cringieness fail too, then cried more. ah, I feel your pain wee lil bebes~
fuck that dude from dazzling bad talking shit about the black people who work in harajuku, saying they are american is stupid too, they are from Nigeria, so what if they are trying to make a living? the people in kabukicho or shibuya calling out for hosts or izakaya is the same.
overseas bebes,
the world is not America, your america culturally influenced mindset does not apply to preinternet vkei in a non western country.
+ blind hate won't lead to understandings but conflict only. You are all meat bag monkeys on a tiny pale blue dot💜go touch grass💜
①Since some overseas vkei peeps are a bit confused:
Honmei = Your No.1 favorite
Nuance of the term = that you go and support via ¥$¥ at events i.e. the idol aspects of vkei: cheki, cds, instore etc. And again->
One person, not multiple.
Sometimes overseas peeps think I'm some elitist when I say "fuckboys" etc. But honestly this recent drama is just a rare case of someone coming forward, I hear terrible shit often being in the scene, last year was even asked for advice but they didn't go to cops sadly. ☹️💔💦
Whenever a band holds their own event their general rules/wishes,ticketing style+guests etc are the rules of the event, as a fan you do not get to decide these things and you are never above the band in that choice. If you want to make your own rules: become an event organizer.
Random fact: learned Japanese on my own, one way was watching the live action Sailor Moon, so I talked like a girl. 1st Japanese GF said to me,if translated, "kairu...if you're gay it's best to tell me now." I was so confused but explained "I am just me."
From 2002 here. even one miyavi cd lim edition ver of 2nd album was almost 100$ to get it to America. Mowed many lawns of others just to buy one hide live dvd.Unless your fam were loaded it was pretty hard to even convince them to use your money you saved at the those prices😵
My favorite mc ever was at a Kiryu gig and he told a fan dressed up way too nice basically "no one cares how you look, looking nice is our job, move until your makeup comes off and lose weight you stupid fat pig." 🥺🤌✨💫💫💫 S king🤌✨
Whoever says you need to dress vkei is I’m sorry to say very stupid. Most people do not like dressing like a bandman that’s gonna play on stage. I was at 7 lives in the past week and I promise you no one dresses like that. The only person I saw that dressed like that was another
Sns whole personality types that think dressing up in vkei fashion makes them a celeb or something is weird to me because I and other musicians I hang with 99.9% of us are in sandals, beanies, and bucket hats just chillin.
1. smoked crack with Kim Jong Il ✅
2. signed NDA for Donald J. Trump ❌
3. went to pride with George W. Bush ✅
4. had a nude hot tub party with Obama ✅
5. made out with Putin at a Katy Perry gig ✅
6. went assless chaps shopping with Hitler ✅
Being a vkei fan as an SJW type who doesn't speak Japanese is like owning this book, only admiring the cover, and never opening it.
If you knew the contents you'd probably go back to your kpop.

Seeing lots of you vk bebes getting vk presents reminded me of Xmas 2003. I begged and convinced my mom that almost 100$ to get 1st press of Miyavi's 2nd Album Garyuu imported was the only thing I needed and that it was a sound purchase👼🙏
#vkstonks
I am a grown ass man, and my job has me ordering some enamel heel boots that go up over my thighs,black latex body paint, and some other kinky shit. next look is full on slut mode. vkei life~
The weirdest thing this year has been people recognizing me in public and acting odd. Last week some obvious vk otaku guy type started filming me on the train, that was not cute. If you see me you can talk to me. I am ridiculously friendly, Often to my own detriment level so.
👁️とっても嬉しいお知らせ👁️
PSYCHO SONIC BOOMのメンバー集まりました🦝🦝🦝🦝
今度4人で撮影出来たらまた発表します😌🙏
👁️great news👁️
Have gathered full time members for PSYCHO SONIC BOOM🦝🦝🦝🦝next we will release photoshoot and such😌🙏
as a preteen looking up what "jisatsu ganbou" and "ame to much wo" means was good stuff.
Embrace insanity and complexity.
The world is insane.
All good musicians I know are a bit mental and crazy.
I'd much rather be shocked/offended than bored by art.
We absolutely need people to stop freaking out about vkei lyrics having shocking and dark themes but I feel like we also need to stop telling those people that ALL vkei is shocking eroguro. There’s tanbei kei, oshare kei, all kinds of bands with “cleaner” lyrics
2022 overall has maybe been the happiest of my adult life.
Thanks to fans EVERY single CD I pressed sold out(being so busy and doing it alone is a new trouble though) and thanks to friends too💜 really has been a crazy fun year. 2023 I have bigger things lined up, so lets go!!💜
*cheki for myself will be up for sale post gig. Since ECDD times my net reservations always sold out pretty fast so I will try and take a bit more than usual maybe, though I am not a big fan of taking em tbh😂💦
