Kisaki Drama 2k18
Luca and 3 others reacted to colorful人生 for a post in a topic
Don't get me wrong, I think downplaying these events are obviously wrong, and feigning ignorance is very telling of character. Music v. Artist is not what I was getting at in particular (which has already been mentioned), but more of the person v. persona aspect (which is certainly a more complicated topic.) I find the opportunism a bit more of a cynical response rather than a malicious one. I would hope that no one would try to sell stuff solely b/c of this situation, because that would be in bad taste. (I don't intend to sell my rando KISAKI CD from a ClosetChild box until this dies down b/c I've been putting together stuff to get rid of for months now.) I think not caring or not wanting to watch KISAKI in anything is a perfectly reasonable response. What he did is disgusting and horrible, but I could still watch a Lin MV. Then again, I don't really idolize celebrities & musicians the same way as some people do either. Anyway, I'm just trying to approach this from a more neutral state (not with the crimes but w/ KISAKI), since I was never a huge KISAKI fan (moreso Lin.) Personally, I'm not going to meander though non-KISAKI stuff with how omnipresent he was, but I will continue to have a distaste for his image whenever I see him. He can rot in hell for all I care. -

メリーバッドエンド(Merry Badend) will disband.
violetchain and 2 others reacted to Masato for a post in a topic
So basically he says that he had body issues before, as he is very slim and not manly/bulky. So he got the onnagata role that fit him well and he was happy with it. He always designed frilly skirts to cover his manly parts. But then some fan sent him a message that she liked the occasional glimpses of manlyness. He was shocked, but decided to try it out with the last merryba costume and got more confident. He wants to explore this male/female dynamic in this photbook project. Unfortunately it will not be R18. 🤣 Random rewards and a release party planned. Maybe finally the gravure fotobook we all deserve? -
2 pointsI was surprised to see that there was no topic on Buck-Tick so far, seeing as they're one of the pioneers of Visual Kei and have been going strong for over 30 years now.

Kisaki Drama 2k18
YukiUta and one other reacted to Paraph for a post in a topic
Can we all just take a moment to realize that KISAKI was the main face behind many of the bands he was involved in. KamiUta from Phantasmagoria literally depicts him as God. If all this is true and KISAKI really is the scum of the Earth then I don’t know about you but it makes me uncomfortable listening to or watching some of his material. It gives me serious narcissistic/sociopathic psycho vibes if all true. edit: looks like many posts were deleted so this one now lacks context and looks super random.. -

Kisaki Drama 2k18
YukiUta and one other reacted to Paraph for a post in a topic
This is where I draw the line, though. I've never felt this way before with any artist scandal and shrugged off his tax evasion nonsense. I'm not going to turn a blind eye to scum if these allegations prove true. As much as I liked some of his music. Also, it's 4 discs total y'all, lets not assume I'm about to throw out his entire discography or something. I'm not some kind of moral elitist thinking everyone who doesn't is stupid. It's just a decision I'm making in regards to what I want represented in my collection. These allegations are no joking matter to me. There are serious long term-lifelong mental repercussions to the victims involved here if true that it makes me nauseous even thinking about it. -

I can't believe some of you are more worried about the fate of some of your faves that Kisaki composed for as opposed to the fate of that child and her current and future mental health. Like, what the fuck lol. I hope Kisaki and this situation is dealt with properly, but I hope that it isn't blown up by media and/or press. I'd like for the woman and her child to get their privacy. -

Film and show Soundtracks

I've always loved the soundtracks of the anime series' Noir and Haibane Renmei. For non-anime I always go back to the Drive soundtrack. -

1 pointYa. Hard Rock and Metal isn't even new being used for Anime opening. From the obvious Detroit Metal City, to Deadman Wonderland, Darker Than Black, Durarara, Gundam 00, WataMote, Soul Eater, Mnemosyne, One Punch Man, and so on. So if someone says DEG new song sounds like anime opening, they might refered to this kind of sounds.

Good scanner?
monkeybanana4 reacted to colorful人生 for a post in a topic
Can also vouch for EPSON scanners (not so much their printers...that one goes to brother) as I own a V550. I would probably go for the V39 since you can get Prime shipping with it (usu. indicative of the latest item in a product line), and everything else is pretty much overkill, if you're just doing booklet & magazine scans. -

Good scanner?
monkeybanana4 reacted to suji for a post in a topic
I'm a scannerholic! I scan just about everything from pics to magazines. I highly recommend the Epson Perfection V33; it costs about $70 on Amazon, comes with additional software like the Scan & Stitch (which I don't really use but whatevs), and has the ability to scan to email or PDF also. Also, when you open it, the door can lay flat so that you can scan book pages without having to flop the book around to get the whole display scanned (definitely perfect for panoramic scans!) I've had this baby for about 2 years or so, haven't had much trouble with it except when Windows updates and it doesn't wanna come on at first (but I've learned how to manage that). -

Kisaki Drama 2k18
Komorebi reacted to nomemorial for a post in a topic
Wow - just read through this entire thread. I truly hope the woman and child find justice and some semblance of peace through all of this. Reading this reminds me of so many allegations that have sprung up in the emo/metal scenes (though this is absolutely one of the most vile) and it's always so...mindboggling to me how willing fans are to excuse the actions of their faves, often leading them to lash out against the accuser in some horrid, backwards way. I really hope things don't pan out that way here (wishful thinking, maybe?), but wow. -

未完成アリス (Mikansei Alice) new single "逆襲シンデレラ" release
suji reacted to violetchain for a post in a topic
Another one already? The song doesn't sound as promising as the last single, judging from that preview, but I like the whole "costume designer's workshop after a clearance fabric sale" aesthetic they've got going on, and it's cool to see how fast they're moving. That tour schedule looks really ambitious too! Still no Shiori though. I think they probably have more videos without him than with at this point. ETA: It looks like Lyubi changed his stage name to 有栖川 塁 (Arisugawa Rui), which is great because the name change to Lyubi never really registered in my head. Kind of cringing at the fact that he chose that name so he could write it as "Rui Alicegawa" though. -

0 pointsAs a single mother (divorced), I can understand what it was like for this woman. I've made questionable decisions because of loneliness and such, but if any guy had ever even looked at my child the wrong way, they'd never find his body... Looking at those photos was heartbreaking. In every single photo that poor girl looks terrified. There are always alot of rumors in VK, with the majority being made up by jealous bangya, but this woman seems to have alot of proof. Enough to go to the police, at least. My ex was a minor bandman in Osaka and he never really liked me going to Undercode events (I tried not to, but there was one band I liked). On the rare occasion he played an Undercode event, he did his set, then hid in the band van until it was time to go home! But this news is a million times worse than anything I've heard about before. I hope he burns.
