I recently discovered there's a Kingdom Hearts Orchestra and they happen to be doing a world tour in 2019! I saw some live videos and it's an amazing experience, but badly promoted. Don't miss out!! They're touring Europe, Latin America, US, and more.

*LONG RANT*
So I was on the bus earlier and I was listening to a quiet song. I overheard someone near me shouting about how her daughter wasn't allowed to watch Power Rangers for some reason, so I took one earphone out and proceeded to eavesdrop. Then, a loud song that I really like came on, so I thought "nah, I'm not gonna listen to this with just one earphone", so I paused it, skipped back to the start, then kept the one earphone in and looked distant so it looked like I wasn't eavesdropping. Anyways, this is the exchange that I heard:
 
Woman (shouting at someone else): My daughter is not allowed to watch Power Rangers! If she sees Power Rangers on TV, she wants to be a Power Ranger! *turns to daughter to shout at her as well* What do you watch on TV?
Daughter: Power Rangers.
Woman (still bloody shouting as if the entire bus couldn't already hear her): No, you do not, you watch CBeebies! *turns back to other person* And that's all she watches. Either that, or horses, because she rides horses.
 
Oh. My. KAMI-SAMA.
 
This girl was, like, four or five years old and she's not even allowed to watch Power Rangers because her bitchy mother doesn't want her having an active imagination! I'm eighteen and I wouldn't mind being a fucking Power Ranger. Controlling parenting is my ultimate berserk button; I hope that little girl gives her mother hell when she grows up. I had to stop myself from getting involved. I think one of the only reasons I didn't was because I was nearly at my stop.

Nyango Star first live DVD when

strongly experiencing GHOST stan renaissance rn. send help

It's so nice to talk to people who like j-rock again. It's hard to relate with a lot of my friends because not a lot of them like the same music as I do. So this, this is nice. I feel so welcomed.

Have y'all seen the controversial Gillette ad? What do you think? Are men not used to progressive messages aimed at themselves? Personally, I think although a little cliché, it isn't a bad advert. 
 

first hot take of 2019
people can make all the comparisons they want and its pretty much justified since all the members are huge  diru fanboys, especially Sho, but CHEDOARA is still better than anything diru have ever done

I've been sleeping on GIMMICAL☆IMPACT!! for far too long. Hooked.

Don't forget to vote on the annual MH J-rock Awards!
 
 

bandoman pls, 0th isn't a thing. who the fuck even came up with that lmao

If you didn't wish me Happy Birthday probably you like THE RAID

just gotta drop my 2 cents in a more visible place:

i'm of the opinion that visual kei has been dying for a good minute. but rock "died" in mainstream american music too and its still around. vk will have the same fate. as long as there's japanese people willing to be visual kei, and international english speaking fans willing to listen, then mh will always be here. and even if you have fallen out of love with japanese music, we are still here for you too. at some point, we've grown beyond a site for music and we've become a community and a family, and that is the secret sauce that has allowed us to outlive all our competition.

people who hate jazz music probably like THE RAID

I am poisoning myself with the internet

there's some improvement on sleepyhead's second release. tracks 3, 4, 5 are quite catchy!

There's nothing better than knitting while drinking tea and listening to Final Fantasy soundtracks. Makes me feel so cozy and relaxed.

Ruki's fake ass: Helloooo overseas sweetiessss we missed you guys SOOOO much!

Xaa Xaa's Yuki Tokei is one of the best vk ballads period.

if someone teaches me i might consider sharing the kizu dvd 👀

Yooo, like my status if you're down to participate in another trade-off!

Jesus fuck, lol. What did they do to Sonic?!

Thanks to RPG games for giving me another world that I can run to. My reality seems to be rotting.

Damn, fuck this cold; I don’t need this happening now!
