there’s a cosmetic staff that’s called the Malice masher.

I’m a little bit late with the discussion of this but I recently found out about this game. Unfortunately, it seems to be discontinued. I wish I could play it. Can you tell me a bit more about the gameplay? I’m extremely curious!

Inugami Circus Dan’s Unmei no Karma is featured as a theme song for a 2012 Shojo Tsubaki Musical by KaitenHyakume Theather Group ( taken from their official website )
Also, this performance was almost catagorized as lost until a twitter user @g0reicide found it
( according to the youtube reuploader, FunnySecondChannelMan and a couple of tiktok users that said it’s lost )

Sakito fan here, and obviously at any opportunity I will share something about him..
Anyways, he got scratched by a stray cat and went to get medical attention….at where his name should be labelled on the medication, the word “antibiotics” got printed instead.
The post went viral and the post was picked up by news sites, lol. Good for him as Nightmare definitely could use more publicity for Budokan!

Luna Sea’s Rosier and I For You are now station melodies at Hadano, Kanagawa!
I think the two songs are used for separate lines; anyone with better Japanese can confirm? I’m just quickly posting here first

Not sure if it was mentioned above but Tomorrow I’ll be Someone’s Girlfriend season 2 has a main character that’s a former bangya turned hostess, turned sex worker. The entire show is painfully realistic in multiple ways, I highly recommend it!

This is a sad pattern nowadays…
The bangya in this particular show deals more with the theme of ageism in women (specifically aging within a subculture) and choosing between the big city life vs family life. There’s another character in season 1 that goes from going to host clubs to falling for a host and starting sex work to support him which is a closer plot to that idea
That show sounds really interesting. Unfortunately it seems that it is not available for streaming anywhere in Germany.
That it, that’s the post.
I think it’s pretty cool that at least one of his 808K followers will hear the GazettE for the first time.
That’s all.
And if you haven’t heard flash by 2hollis, it’s time to get lit.

Hello fellow drainers . There’s actually a surprising amount of vk refs in drain between this, Ecco & Bladee vk-inspired merch, and Lucy Bedroque making teaser trailers with Malice Mizer PV snippets. (Maybe not that surprising given the fashion/aesthetic focus overlap)
That being said, does this warrant an individual news thread

Both Ryohei (ex. CLOWD) and Takashi (The Madna) were involved in the production of NMB48’s 32nd single, Seishun no Deadline.

So, one of the Disney tubers I follow is TDRExplorer. They often vlog about the Japanese Disney and Universal parks, and recently made a vlog about the new PokePark as well.
I got curious a few months ago and asked if they were into or knew about the visual kei scene, and I got this response:
I get the feeling that if there’s enough of an audience for it, they might vlog about their VKei concert experiences. Has anyone on that side of the world met him?
