Official ONE OK ROCK Thread ~

[Hemlock]

a lot of articles from those news sites get posted on this forum anyways so it's almost no reason to go there myself unless i'm bored. 

 

jpopsuki.tv sure makes being a j-music fan a whole lot easier and should be used by everyone.

[mickio]

I just follow some of those sites on twitter and get my news from there. 

[Otaku]

Everyone has their own ways - just pick the best that suits yourself ^^

I used to have really short hair (pixie cut) and I like it; but I only had that hairstyle for about 2 years then I started growing out my hair again.   Anyway, just wait, **your hair would grow out soon.

Thanks. So that means you can rock both long and short hair right? cool

After growing out my hair this time I will never dye it again  . Now I'm addicted to long straight black hair like Suzy's

Ahh, you know how to keep me here. 

 

 

 

 

A few touch of mousse and hair accessories could make any hairstyle better. ;) 

When my hair grew out up to my chin, I had to put mousse/gel because of hair fly-aways - which is irritating, so I had my hair cut pixie style again after a few days of chin-length hair. XD

 

and I have never dyed my hair. :O

 

 

Hiroki with Toru  -_-

[mickio]

I DPed.
Sorry.

To compensate, here's Taka:

[Otaku]

I have never dyed my hair either, but I want to.

My mum won't let me though, considering I would probably have to bleach it twice first before dying because my hair is so black :c

Lol same story when I tried to grow out my bangs. I always cut it again when it was growing halfway. And I don't use mousse or any styling products since it's too much work for a lazy ass like me. Dying hair is fun you should try it at least one

Tomoya talking to Bechan and Sugi and Ryota talking to Okkun  

 

 

@otaku: I always use bubble hair dye (either Etude or Prettia work well). It's cheap and you don't need to bleach your hair.

 

[mickio]

My mum won't let me though, considering I would probably have to bleach it twice first before dying because my hair is so black :c

 

If I would dye my hair, I'd probably go for light brown or something along those shade. 

 

Yes, it is so black. O.o 

My hair is a bit dark brown, I guess?  darkbrown-black?

Yeah, I actually only used hair products back when my hair was short.... lol. 

Now that it's long, I only just let it down or just tie it with a ponytail. 

 

 

And maybe I should. lol. 

 

 

Who's Bechan and Okkun?

Or possible dark brown, but I'm not sure what colour would suit e tbh.

I think you look nice with your current hair colour tbh ^^

[Hemlock]

i like toru's taste in women.

 

Taka likes YUI!!

[Otaku]

i like toru's taste in women.

 

Taka likes YUI!!

Why?

 

BTW have you seen Sket Dance?

[Hemlock]

Why?

 

BTW have you seen Sket Dance?

Why what?

 

yes i have. I fell behind when it was airing and stopped watching it though, i should go back and finish the last 15 or so eps that i missed. Why?

[Otaku]

What about Toru's taste in women do you like?

 

Lol okay. No, someone recommended it to me, because it's a high school/comedy anime, and I was looking for genres like that. Is it good?

long hair and a nice smile. I find a nice smile more attractive than other things. I think i quoted this Gintama ep title before but i'll do it again: "A Woman's Best Make up Is Her Smile"

 

Yes Sket Dance is good and funny. I think of it as Gintama's little brother. Because it's very similar but less wacky, a little less funny, and not as mature because it doesn't do serious stuff as much. And Gintoki's VA does the voice for Switch also and they even had cross over eps. Though the Gintama ep of the cross over was much much funnier than the disappointing Sket Dance one.

 

I recommend it for people that can't handle the ridiculousness of Gintama or just want to watch Gintama in a school setting without the fighting. Watch both though, they're both good. My favorite school comedy anime is School Rumbel still. Sket Dance would be second.
