I've occasionally stopped in here before, but just recently got around to joining. ...those emoticons are really triggering my ADD. :dance: <--- I'm supposed to focus on writing an intelligble intro with that? Seriously? Ha, anyway, I don't watch much anime anymore but I still really love Japanese culture, especially the music. I'm in school, taking my second semester of Japanese from a Russian guy who really likes kanji. Which...I should probably be studying instead of goofing off in iTunes J...but there's katakana to read, so that's like studying. Right? :sweat:

What music do you like? I kinda fell off the J-rock/J-pop bandwagon but I still really like L'Arc-en-Ciel and Gackt (well, his older stuff anyway).

Thank y'all for the welcome. ^_^ I look forward to hanging out and getting to know everyone. @ShiroiHikari: I have a ton of j-pop/rock, but my favorites are Ai Otsuka (socutex.x), School Food Punishment, Plastic Tree, and Miyavi. I wonder if he and Gackt will ever re-start that band they briefly had--too bad they didn't record anything before getting too busy... Did you just get kinda tired of j-pop? I still like it, but j-rock fandom is starting to get on my nerves. I learned the hard way to stay away from Miyavi fandom in particular. x.o

I've never heard of School Food Punishment. o:

I used to like Miyavi a bit. I never did get to hear any of the stuff he did with Gackt D: Was that the group that also had the guy from Luna Sea...? Or was it Yoshiki? I can't remember. XD

I also liked Plastic Tree but I haven't heard anything of theirs in a long time-- my favorite song by them is totally Chiriyuku Bokura <3

And yeah, J-rock fans are...o_O I did get kind of tired of trying to find new music, because my friend that was my "source" dropped off the face of the earth. >_>

SFP's a pop-electronica band; their song 'Futari Umi no Soko' was the outro for Eden of the East, I believe. (Not their best song, I think, but it's pretty.)

I've been trying to decide whether or not to brave the fangirls and go looking for footage from the S.K.I.N concert; I believe it was Yoshiki, Gackt, Miyavi, and Sugio. Gackt confirmed that Miyavi is as crazy as he acts onstage. XD

Plastic Tree just released a new single that is the definition of awesome. Which album is Chiriyuku Bokura off of? *has a couple hundred yen left at iTunes* I can never keep their discography straight.

Sorry about your friend; I had someone do the same thing to me a couple years ago. It really sucks. =\

@risa
Thank you for the welcome. = ) I'm hoping the studies go well enough that I can do the exchange program in my junior year. My all-time favorite anime is still Cowboy Bebop. I'm beginning to think it probably always will be, or at least until I finally get around to watching Eva. = )

I think Chiriyuku Bokura is from the Troimerai album (I don't think I spelled it right XD).
