DocumentaLy 6,033 Posted June 13, 2013 Share Posted June 13, 2013 I have this feeling that the indie scene is going to be the next big thing in Japan for some odd reason... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DocumentaLy 6,033 Posted June 13, 2013 Share Posted June 13, 2013 Because of Ichiro? No, it's just a feeling. Have you heard of Omori Seiko? she's a singer whose tryingto market herself as an "indie-idol" which is pretty much combining what is popular now (idols) and in your opinion what will be popular in the future (indie). I'm not a huge fan of her music but she's different from most idols you find nowadays. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=loMSqyLA5DU No, I don't get the whole indie idol thing. It's just as planned as the rest of them. Like if I wanted indie, why not listen to indie instead of an indie idol. Totally thought the same thing couldn't believe it's a all japanese boy group and they not bad looking.. This just shows how bad the idea of a Japanese boyband is. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DocumentaLy 6,033 Posted June 13, 2013 Share Posted June 13, 2013 boybands aren't common? No, they just have a bad rep, mostly because of JE. I forgot that HoMin stans are the ones who want to erase JYJ as they never existed. I remember their anniversary thread they were congratulating HoMin and saying JYJ was not part of it. Its funny how they always point out that JYJ or DB5K stans are the bad ones. Yeah, I was in that thread. Kimchi, a known OT5, was the OP and there were OT5 images in the OP. I'm sorry but in their anniversary threads I celebrate from 2003 forward. I don't start at 2011. Why not make your own Homin anniversary if you don't want to include JYJ? It's not as if Homin were the stars of the DBSK5. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DocumentaLy 6,033 Posted June 13, 2013 Share Posted June 13, 2013 My mother just said "Bach no Senritsu o Yoru ni Sei Desu" sounds like porno music. She says that to me often, but that caught me off guard. What type of classy porn has she been watching? ...I dont want to know that actually. Anyway, my Queen Ivy is back and hotter than ever. <3 Yubin Now, my other Queen Bada needs to come back then I will be the happiest person ever. Porn music? Real porn music: I love this comeback and Ivy's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DocumentaLy 6,033 Posted June 14, 2013 Share Posted June 14, 2013 Not sure what to think about the new male group yet, but they sound nice. I'm not really a fan of the slicked back hair they have in the video. Did you guys make a thread on it yet? People are always asking about new J-Pop debuts. I had no idea you were doing it by yourself. Sorry if we make it hard on you Momo. Not all Japanese male groups are bad-looking. Most LDH groups are pretty good looking I think that if more of the boybands had a more contemporary style instead of looking like hosts at a hosts club, this perception would change. When I look at EXILE and their brother groups, I see men. This reminds me of something I read a while back linking EXILE's popularity to their manliness and how people like that since Japanese men aren't so manly anymore. I should make a thread about that new group. I Dance is SUCH a good song, my favorite dance song of the year by far. I've been a big Ivy fan since 2007ish and this song is up there with some of her best. the song could do without Yubin's first verse tho. My forever fave: One of JYP's best productions. Oh yeah I remember the fake fans name calling from them. Lol I swear they are easily tick off. They are probably one of the easiest to troll. I don't get the hate they have towards JYJ from them. Well, I do. I know they called them traitors or money hungry. HoMin stans just want to erase the accomplishments of the other 3 members who took part of DB5K accomplishments. If they were angry that JYJ was included at anniversary, they should have made their own thread and continue in delulu land. I agree with you. Its not hard to make a thread and ignore a thread that includes all 5 members. I wonder how would it have been if the split would have happen earlier. We all know HoMin are not the strongest compared to the other 3. This is coming from someone who was just casual listener. Would HoMin be successful as it is? Male LDH groups are manly. Its nice to see manly male groups not the typical flower JE groups. *though I don't mind* Homin is only a success because of SM, let's be real.

DocumentaLy 6,033 Posted June 14, 2013 Share Posted June 14, 2013 True! That's the thing in being in the largest Kor. label. Even with the media blackout, JYJ still pulls numbers that are near DBSK's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DocumentaLy 6,033 Posted June 14, 2013 Share Posted June 14, 2013 I wonder if I should invite some of the JPop fans on Tumblr that I follow here. And I have a thread idea. A lot of the acts that we like have been around for quite a while, like 10 years or more. What if we were to post some of the newer acts, ones that have debuted in like the past 5 years or so?

DocumentaLy 6,033 Posted June 14, 2013 Share Posted June 14, 2013 I'll try reporting threads that need immediate attention a little more often, then. (￣▽￣) I showed 3JSB and Keita to a member on H8 once and she was shocked they were Japanese artists. The skinny young idols with bad haircuts isn't helping things one bit. -_- Not saying they have to go away, but Japan needs to push their modern artists more. This reminds me of that whole Cool Japan thing. Akimoto is on the advisory panel for that. Why? If Japan is really going to start to push their music abroad, they should try to push the more contemporary acts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DocumentaLy 6,033 Posted June 14, 2013 Share Posted June 14, 2013 Go ahead if you want. The more the merrier ^_^ Post some of the newer acts how? I don't know, post some videos. Like a showcase? Just a way to show off some of the newer acts. Like everyone knows a lot of the older acts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DocumentaLy 6,033 Posted June 14, 2013 Share Posted June 14, 2013 oh like how on the K side everything about nugus gets posted? That'd be good. We can start converting people again XD I'm not thinking like every single act getting their own thread. I thinking of like a one time thing. We all post some new acts.

DocumentaLy 6,033 Posted June 14, 2013 Share Posted June 14, 2013 like a weekly thing that Mandi does? That'd work too either way. It's your suggestion so go about it as you like ^_^ No, a one time thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DocumentaLy 6,033 Posted June 14, 2013 Share Posted June 14, 2013 I imagine that K-pop fans would like Matsushita Yuya. They do. I don't have a tumblr, can I still follow? Ohh, I was going to invite Tumblr people here. I remember back in the day Ayu stans used to be harassed by Namie/Utada stans about how Ayu is a release whore blah blah now it seems it's the other way round or Namie and Ayu are at least equal in that regard. True. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DocumentaLy 6,033 Posted June 14, 2013 Share Posted June 14, 2013 Do all the tumblr people share the same opinions as you? I can't imagine the fights that would occur between those people and the idol fans lol. Tbh we need some more Namie stans and some hardcore Kuu stans. We don't get enough 4(3+1 lbr) Queen Stan fights. There's an Ayu fan, an EXILE fan, and a Kyary fan I have in mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DocumentaLy 6,033 Posted June 14, 2013 Share Posted June 14, 2013 Was listening to it earlier today and couldn't be any happier with how everything turned out for this release! Her voice has only gotten much better and the over all production is spot on and giving me city pop type vibes. Excellent release! OMG I was going say this is like an appetizer for Surfbank Social Club next week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
