Anyone else finding Skullpanda pieces outside of official drops?

I’ve been collecting Skullpanda for a bit now, mostly sticking to official drops, but lately I’ve also been exploring secondhand options. I’ve seen some interesting listings through trades, resellers, and even a few live auctions on whatnot.

What surprised me is how often older series, opened boxes, or dupes pop up when people are downsizing collections. It feels more relaxed than fighting drop times, and sometimes you get to hear why someone is letting a piece go.

Not trying to buy or sell here, just curious. Are most of you sticking strictly to drops, or are you also picking up Skullpanda through secondhand or live platforms?

Streaming music

Is there anywhere legal I can stream Malice Mizer or do I have to buy a CD? Because they come up on Amazon music, Spotify (IK), youtube and Apple music but i'm just wondering. (Also the situation with other Vkei bands in general)

Has anyone attended events outside of Japan where a vkei band performed, or vkei concerts abroad in general? If so, please share your experience — was it any worse compared to Japanese concerts?

As for myself, I’ll actually be attending DoKomi in Düsseldorf soon, where ゼラ (Zera) have been invited as guests — which is honestly a big part of why I agreed to go in the first place. It’ll be my first time at an event of this scale, so I’m not really sure what to expect beyond the performance itself. I’m also not entirely familiar with what it means for a band to be invited to a festival like this as opposed to a regular concert — so if anyone has experience with that kind of format, I’d appreciate any insight!

What is mako saying during the beginning and end of this version of blue bejji? When he sings with the high pitched voice

Sono “Matenrou Opera”

I was listening to the solo versions of this song and I **found out about this person** (Sono) from the band Moi dix Mois. I noticed his voice is soft and would be balanced with a strong instrumental sound. Does anyone have any song suggestions from the band he's in, “Matenrou Opera”?

Did kubo get inspired of Yuki from Malice Mizer for Ichigo’s Hollow form?

I know it doesnt feature that many artists of what vkei really is but... Can the Roses Blood Simphony be considered as Vkei Infinity War?

Happy 28th Anniversary, ILLUMINATI!

Happy 28th Anniversary,

MALICE MIZER - ILLUMINATI

20/05/1998 - 20/05/2026

CODA-1528

Track list:

  1. Illuminati [P-Type]

  2. N・p・s N・g・s [N-type]

  3. Illuminati [P-Type Instrumental]

What is your first thought after hearing this song?

I think this is one of the most experimental and mysterious singles during the late Gackt period, combining gothic rock with electronic elements, dark wave influences, and the band’s signature classical atmosphere.

Moreover the promotional video, which intended to be controversial and shocking to the fans. It was filmed in a "chaotic, frenetic style", featuring violent and erotic themes. It features band members "feasting" on nude bodies of women and being subjected to scientific experiments.

What a time to be alive :)

P.S: Legend said that there's a regular version of this single, with non shiny metallic cover, but much, much, much rare than the one in the picture. What you see is the 1st press limited edition.

There's this discussion running around X about how hard is to get Tickets as a tourist/foreigner, how true is it?

So basically, a few days ago this Japanese musician posted about wanting more overseas fans enjoying Japanese music and so on (Quite long post to quote everything).

While the sentiment was well thought, it sparked a lengthy discussion about many aspects.

But the specific aspect of the discussion caught my eye was that MANY people said that "It's very hard or even impossible to get tickets to live shows more often than not as a foreigner, you need a japanese cellphone number, adress, etc".

Is this true and how true is it?

While i'm very curious about this subject, i have the luck to be traveling to Japan in August for a few days and i wanted to attend to any concert (Altho one in particular has all my attention), and now i'm fairly scared as well of not being able to even get them.

Dué Le Quartz

Does anybody else know about them? I feel so lonely being a Dué le Quartz fan (┬┬﹏┬┬) Plenty people know about Miyavi but I never see anybody talk about them. Thoughts?

(pictures of the baddies attached cause they got great visuals)

Help me find who that is 🙇

Hello there,

I just created an account just to maybe find people who might recognize who those bandmen are. I've been gifted these chekkis, but sadly, the person that gave them to me doesn't remember who it was.

I thought the last one might be the vocalist of The Madna, but the piercings don't match, or at least i don't think it does.

Any help is appreciated.

Thank you!
