OMG I thought the community was way older. I’m curious about what attracts younger people to J rock and VK nowadays…

Im 14, discovered vkei when I was 12/13. Got my first taste from an anime song (can’t remember which now) and someone telling me that a MATHILDA song (#kawaii) reminded them of my twitter layout 🤣 got my official introduction to a friend thats a year older than me, and it all continued from there, haha. There is a huge community on twitter and smaller ones on tiktok (I am on twt but not tiktok)

Coming here after reading a comment that said " 17 years passed, no way " under the PV of Filth in the beauty ( by GazettE ). I almost fainted lol 👵🏻  
I’m a 29 yo lady and I also wonder what the new generation likes and find attractive about the actual VK scene ( I’m saying that in the most neutral way possible by the way, no judging ).

Honestly, I dont think I will ever be able to like vk as much as the more experienced folks will because so much has happened before my time. Most bands formed before I was even born, and since I only got into vk in 2023, most bands disbanded before I would ever get the chance to engage with their socials and see them live. I just think the music is fn awesome and the bandmen have cool looks to them, really, because I know that won’t ever change. There is definitely drama, but people dont criritize artists’ every move as much as what is done for pop and whatnot. Also I almost always get along with people who listen to it. Nevrr met a bad one

tbh i almost said on my previous comment that my generation had more luck because we had the opportunity to live thru that era, with all those great Visual Kei bands..Honestly, the 2000-2016 VK era was the best to me !  
I didn’t say it because i felt like it was a personal feeling, but I now see that it’s shared and mutual.  
And about the second part of your comment, I think you’re pretty lucky and hopefully it will stay that way for you haha  
There have been always a toxic minority, and will always be, it’s just the " toxicity codes " that change. Anyway, we’re drifting away from the main subject there sorry 🫡

I agree. Every fandom and every fanbase has some bad apples. There are not very many here, however. I engage with alot of media and I have seen worse compared to here especially on JRO. Vkeitwt has a few more that I luckily never talked to, but I know they exist.

38 here. Been listening to VK since 98. I never really fell out of it, though I do have an inherent bias towards older bands. I’m also a connoisseur of 80s Japanese metal. I suppose I’ll listen until the day I die.

How are the under 30’s outnumbering us?! 🤣

I’m glad folks are resurrecting this old genre and there’s been a revival in a sense, but man I feel a bit old when I’m hanging out with the 20 year olds musing about Mana lol

I’ll be 35 later this November. It’s weird; I’ve been listening to Japanese music since 2001 and it’s always been the norm. I never really understood post-hardcore/emo/pop-punk much at all when it was sailing around the 2000s.

Looking back’s a bitch, innit?
