hihi!!!
this is going to be long so apologies in advance
my name is bri and i’ve been into VK since I was in elementry school!! i’m 26 now so that’s like an eternity ago.
an cafe was my gateway band and I was obsessed with them. i remember crying my little eyes out watching bou’s last live with the band and memorizing a lot of their photoshoot/fun videos despite not knowing japanese.
from then on it just spiraled into a borderline obsession. i discovered paradeis (probably my fav oshare kei band of all time i’m ACTUALLY obsessed and still follow mashiro and sei on twitter). i made my parents buy me any CDs I could find of them online. i even printed out pictures of mashiro and hung them on my wall.
i used to be so embarrassing in public with it too like. in middle school I remember being in speech class and giving a speech whole ass speech on why oshare kei men are beautiful. i had a graphic I showed and everything. i think about that moment a lot.
as of right now, i haven’t been in the VK scene for a while. my fav bands are pretty much the same as they were years ago. I absolutely adore exist trace, paradeis, D, malice mizer, dog in the pwo, mejibray, dadorama, versailles and many more tbh. it’s hard to list everything.
i wanna learn more bands and get back into it! so please if you have any suggestions let me know! i’m really excited to be here!! (゚∀゚)
