Jessie
You're welcome.
Jessie
also the Japanese lyrics are so much less hamfisted?
Jessie
like in English it's like "how many times can I repeat the word 'all'"
Jessie
but the Japanese chorus is like... "[I'll] Never say goodbye / I can't erase you / I can only see you in everything" and like all this stuff about upholding the guy's end of every pinky promise they made
Jessie
while they were together and shit
Jessie
still totally a song about a dude getting dumped and being all sensitive about it, but more than three words got involved in it
@ weallfloat
w-inds omg
Jessie
wait you know w-inds?
Jessie
NOBODY on this side of the internet knows jpop boybands
Jessie
w-inds. 2010 FC- Love is message

Love is Message is one of my all-time instant-happy songs T_T
@ weallfloat

@ weallfloat

@ weallfloat

Jessie
AAAHHH YOU SPEAK JE
Jessie
I was pretty hard into JE until Sexy Zone became a thing
@ weallfloat
mATSUMOTO JUN FOR LYFE
Jessie
and then it was like "and I'M OFFICIALLY TOO OLD TO BE INTO JOHNNY''S."
@ weallfloat
LMFAO FUCK i know i know man
@ weallfloat
are you just this ball of absolute cool shit
Jessie
12 year olds calling themselves Sexy Zone? NOPE DON'T WANNA GET ARRESTED
@ weallfloat
b/c everytime you plurk i'm like 'man yes'
@ weallfloat
LOL i left before that
@ weallfloat
yeah my jpop/jrock obsession was p fuckin bad hi5 us
Jessie
I was a pretty annoying anime fan in the 90s, then grew out of it and got REALLY INTO THE MUSIC after 2000
Jessie
because someone slipped some Kiroro songs into an anime mix CD and I was like "WHAT DO YOU MEAN THERE'S MUSIC THAT ISN'T ATTACHED TO ANIME"
Jessie
and then Morning Musume is a fucking gateway drug
@ weallfloat
DUDE DO YOU REMEMBER W
Jessie
also stuck in my head forever: "sukissukissu kissu wo kudasai"
Jessie
so yes
@ weallfloat
also one of my ighlights of my life was giving mangos to yukke from MUCC you're in a safe zone
@ weallfloat
god I'M SO HAPPY SOMEONE ELSE IS HERE WITH ME
@ weallfloat
ON THIS BURNING SHIP OF GARBAGE
Jessie
man I went to see Momoiro Clover last week
Jessie
also this means you probably want to meet Debs oshi oh no
Jessie
we talk idols all the damn time though usually in her plurk because she's got other friends into the fandom
@ weallfloat
I haven't thought about this shit in forever though i'm so behind
@ weallfloat
is oguri shun still a thing i love him
oshi oh no
what hi
Jessie
I think he's still acting!
oshi oh no
HI I AM HERE (I AM SUPPOSED TO BE HEALING A RAID DON'T TELL THEM I TABBED OUT)
Jessie
lmao ilu Debs
oshi oh no
i just saw an idol notif and ran
Jessie
oh if you've been out of the fandom for a while, do you want to feel really old?
Jessie
Berryz disbanded last year and C-ute is getting the boot in December to make room for a new group debuting in January
Jessie
since you mentioned W, I can imagine your feelings about Berryz match mine
@ weallfloat
oh my god
Jessie
the tiny little babies who spent all their time staring at their feet to make sure they got their dances right ARE ALL TOO OLD TO BE IDOLS NOW.
oshi oh no
YEP
@ weallfloat
i feel like i'm having an existential crisis
oshi oh no
goodbye c-ute :'-(
oshi oh no
and berryz
oshi oh no
holy shit berryz disbanding was so awful
Jessie
I didn't notice the "Berryz disbanding was awful" comment last night, but HERE IT YOUR REMINDER OF HOW AWFUL IT WAS
Berryz工房『Love together!』
Jessie
because I <3 you
Jessie
as Momoko is a fucking robot who doesn't know how genuine emotion works
Jessie
They both released songs about being too old to be idols and feeling pushed out of the industry
Jessie
Berryz is more "yo my friends are fucking married now..." and C-ute is like "all these young bitches coming up wanna take my spot >|"
oshi oh no
you're killing me here with love together
Jessie
it's the fastest way to get to you :*
oshi oh no
@ weallfloat
all of this holy shit
@ weallfloat
is b'z still around? I know they're still jrock i just really love them
@ weallfloat
my old screenname before chasekat happened was realthingshakes for that exact reason
Jessie
B'z IS still around!
Jessie
I think they mostly do solo stuff now, but they come together once or twice a year
Jessie
フキアレナサイ/B'z(歌詞付き)
this is their latest digital single, but I think their last major release was early last year
Jessie
they're dudes so they don't have to stop performing when they get old 8D
Jessie
like even Tokio still gets together
Jessie
130614 B'z デビュー25周年SPライブ
IF YOU WANNA GET OLD, HERE'S SOME 25TH ANNIVERSARY STUFF
@ weallfloat
i gotta lay here this is so good
@ weallfloat
WHAT ABOUT SUGIZO
@ weallfloat
I HAD A CONVERSATION WITH THAT MAN ONCE HE WAS ADORABLE
@ weallfloat
i realize i could just google this myself but it's more fun to make you feel old as well tbh
Jessie
lmao WELL I HAVE TO GOOGLE SUGIZO BC IDK THAT ONE
Jessie
but Luna Sea apparently!
Jessie
okay I looked at the article and realized I'm not familiar with this enough to give you any kind of summer I APOLOGIZE
Jessie
mostly I think of Jrock as that thing my first college roommate was SUPER INTO
Jessie
Luna Sea/Malice Mizer/DeG ALL THE SAME GROUP IN MY HEAD
Jessie
I am aware that they're very different BUT NOT IN MY HEAD
@ weallfloat
oh my god malice mizer
@ weallfloat
i'm getting war flashbacks
Jessie
man I remember when solo Gackt was a big scandal
Jessie
and also when Vanilla was new
@ weallfloat
GOD. All that ~yaoi fanservice~
Jessie
speaking of Yaoi fanservice, remember WaT? 8D
Jessie
I was mostly looking for TM Revolution wearing nothing but electrical tape, but this came up instead
Jessie
I'm at peace with it
@ weallfloat
GOD i used to play like
Jessie
also I like how Wentz is like actively trying to look less western
Jessie
he used to get so much shit for not being fully Japanese
@ weallfloat
an oc (i was like 14 it was a thinly veiled rps) based entirely on abingdon boys school aesthetic it was so sad
@ weallfloat
this is before i knew about like actual fandom rp tho
@ weallfloat
GOD WENTZ. did you see him in the gegege no kitaro movie?? I would genuinely play from that he was so cute
Jessie
oh this is a judgment-free zone. I used to rp from JE on insanejournal >>
@ weallfloat
okay we're in the same boat
Jessie
I had a lot of feelings about Ikuta Toma getting left behind while all his BFFs got placed into big groups
@ weallfloat
he was the cutest one imo
@ weallfloat
i shipped him and oguri shuns character in that weird running jdrama
Jessie
Toma was like "HANGS OUT WITH MATSUJUN AND AIBA oh wait they're off in Arashi WELL OKAY I LOVE YOU YAMAPI o...h... okay have fun in News.. (unsure)"
@ weallfloat
oh my god poor toma
Jessie
everything about News was such a damn trainwreck
Jessie
a trainwreck that they later repeated when they created Hey Say Jump because why would anyone ever want to have a band of happy members who didn't hate their jobs and their peers
@ weallfloat
i'm unfamiliar with hey say jump ):
@ weallfloat
i started petering off when like wentz and teppei had that super cute band
Jessie
uhhhhhhhhh hold on I need to remember what they were called when they were Juniors
Jessie
YAH YAH YAH
Jessie
okay so picture Ya3 except without the most popular member
Jessie
plus like 47 randos
@ weallfloat
LMFAO GOD
Jessie
the point of the group was "they were all born in Heisei!"
Jessie
but they broke up the most popular Junior group instead of just letting Ya3 debut
Jessie
and it was just like older kids looking fucking miserable as they carted around these babies waiting for them to grow up
Jessie
gdi johnny's why do you hate youtube so much
Jessie
/SQUINTS AT BLURRY VIDEO TRYING TO FIND SOMETHING AGE-APPROPRIATE FOR THEIR DEBUT TRACK
Jessie
OKAY SO THE VIDEO IS POTATO QUALITY but it was definitely before Yuri's adolescence happened
Hey! Say! JUMPデビュー当時 Ultra Music Power
Jessie
that beautiful angelic little girl's voice is p much the entire reason HSJump exists
Jessie
and then he had THE MOST AWKWARD PUBERTY and ruined everythinig
Jessie
tho this is still a fucking JAM
