They also open a new homepage today. Is this for real? Are they really back? Like not just for one fest? 
Please be a real reunion. My heart can’t take anything else.

My personal guess is that they will time and time lives, and maybe release a new song or re-record/remaster some older songs. They can’t be a full time anymore due to the other projects.
But at least we are getting something after 14 years. I’m excited and curious to see what they will play there, will be a great surprise if Hizumi sing aggressive songs like Tatoeba kimi ga Shinda ra or Fuyuu Shita Risou. If they remake any song, I would like it to be Ao, their very first song.

Whatever it is, I am just overwhelmingly happy about it. Of course, fingers crossed for a full revival with new music and tours and everything!!

I was thinking that the official video of Trickster had a glitch but no it’s just this one (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l2D1RPJrUPQ&ab_channel=GanShinRecordsTV)
My CD of MIRROR has no bug in it

Does anyone know if overseas fans will be allowed in the FC? The page is just in japanese.
This may 4th concert is the excuse I needed, I am getting a ticket. I don’t care.

I think you will be able to join but maybe not able to add an oversea address for the presents that come with it.
If you just wanna join for being able to purchase tickets it might work. We will need to see what information they request.
I am also considering joining

Just joined and was able to fill with my canadian address. Now waiting for the lottery.
I am late to the party. I just got the news yesterday and am still absolutely overwhelmed.
Last year September i gave up with waiting and focused on all other things and kinda settled with the side projects and never checked updates beside their sideproject band offical homepages and streaming site releases.
i joined the FC yesterday and i am now waiting for the lottery. I also really hope i can connect to other mania once more since i had to ditch Twitter and Meta because of reasons. If anyone knows of a D’espairsray discord/ or other mania on BlueSky or wherever you all are hiding, i would be very happy to stay in contact somehow.

Well, I actually have a BlueSky account but I’ve not been using it in quite a while. Just lurking on Twitter to follow bands for news without being very active myself.
I mainly am here or on Discord, even though I don’t know about any server for the band. I’m just a member of this forum’s Discord server even though I’ve also not been active there in a long time (I’ve simply been overwhelmed and cut down on some places for a while, maybe I should change that again). If I get into more contact with people from here it’s usually through PMs first and we switch to somewhere else (WhatsApp, Discord or whatever’s convenient for us) at some point.

I keep trying to join the lottery but it gives me this weird message saying the website is congested. I am wondering if it is because I am outside japan
I don’t think this would trigger such a message. If it was your location, it would probably say so. If the lottery just started it might really be that a lot of people try to get in at the same time 
you could still try a VPN to rule out the location cause
Oversea fans cannot join yet. I had to change browser (so i could us the website and set up accounts). I got over every hurdle through tenso and all, but then they asked for a japanese national phone number for verification. E-Sim won’t work, since you have to be in japan to activate it.
Oversea fans can join with the 3rd lottery on the 15th October. Our tickets can then be picked up at a special convienience store after 27th April. Because the app for online tickts doesn’t work for us.
i really hope there are VIP Tickets left. The waiting is killing me.
Oof. Also looking for VIP tickets.
I have a friend from Tokyo that might be able to help me though, I will see what I can do.
