Your gateway to endless inspiration
Because I need some Kami appreciation amongst all the later era posters. I feel I am selling Gackt a bit short here - I love him too.
Illuminati is such a banger. I’m going to ignore whatever the lyrics translate to - and any implications associated - and simply enjoy myself here…
MALICE MIZER
Illuminati visuals;
Merveilles
Same as last time. Gorgeous pictures.
(That seems to be my word of the week lately, I wonder how that happened? Maybe I’m just appreciating art more?)
Malice Mizer Vicious Feb. 2001
Am I reblogging all of these so that I have them saved somewhere in order to print them out and put them on my wall? Maybe
Malice Mizer Vicious Aug. 2001
Maybe it’s just because I don’t know a lot about the band - especially considering most people seem to hate the bara no seido era - but I adore everything about this. Beast of Blood is probably my favourite song by them. I also adore the more gothic look (as a goth, rather than a person interested in Vkei). This whole video is everything I want in life.
From what I’ve heard of the different eras, I also prefer Klaha’s sound to Gackt’s…
I just ordered some Malice Mizer cds, and I’m so excited! Did I pay an obscene amount of money for them? Yes, I did. Will I have to stay home until this time next month to avoid spending more money than feasible? Yes, I will. Was it worth it? I think so 😂. I ordered Merveiles, the Beast of Blood single, and the ‘Best Selection’.
That photo of Klaha with the cat never fails to crack me up

He's like a Gyaru–V-kei mix, his style is unique😩😩
Lazy doodles of vkei mp100 girls
Guess who forgot to flip canvases while drawing it
I forgot to post it 😭
Teru vkei from @olezhatheduckhehe
I have a very colorful style, sorry 😔
Btw, I didn't like how the shoulders turned out, so I tried to correct it (I feel like it turned out worse)
It was almost exactly 10 years ago when I first came across this official Dir en grey manga. Back then I was full of hope that someone would one day translate this fierce piece of art for everyone. Turns out no one ever did. And I can’t really blame anyone, because the scans are tiny, the kana are even tinier and the character page is one blurry mess. Who, in their right mind, would do this to themself?! Well… I did. Because today my Japanese is finally good enough that I could translate this.
So here it is. Dir en grey’s Deadly Claris manga, book #1. (I have never seen the other ones and I am pretty sure they don’t exist; haha.) I genuinely hope you’ll enjoy reading it! <3
Book: Deadly Claris 1 Written by: Satou Yoshinawo || Drawn by: DADA Published: July 2003 Pages: 129
Notes: ● There are a few references to Dir en grey songs in this. The Demon Kingdom is actually the well-known “Rasetsu Koku”. (More accurately “Rasetsu” stands for “Rakshasa”; a man-eating demon in Hinduism and Buddhism.) Kaoru’s special attack is called Sin & Punishment - “Tsumi to Batsu”. And Kyo used the Blue Moon incantation - “Aoi Tsuki”. ● I’ve resized the pictures from 450px to 500px wide. ● I’ve included all the SFX, because I am out of my mind obviously. ● You do not necessarily have to know the band to read and enjoy this manga; tbh. Give it a try! The art is insane! (Scanlation & optional download link below.)
