I got request to introduce my favorite visual kei artists and tell something about visual kei and how I got into it. So here it is!

I got into japanese culture when my friend showed me Ginga Nagareboshi Gin aka Silverfang (hopeanuoli) and I like it. Then my mom bought me Weed DVD's as a birthday present. About six months I was totally into Gin and Weed, but then my friend showed me Naruto (yes, same friend). I was crazy about Naruto, and I have to admit, that when I watched some episodes they were so touching that I started cry D:
One day I was in a store and I saw Rave manga and I immediatly liked it. Then I started read many different mangas. But most awesome manga I've ever read is Death Note, 'cause it's so brilliant and addictive.

First japanese band I listened was MUCC. And surprise I was introduced to it by my friend (same again). I liked MUCC, but I wasn't very huge fan. First japanes band I admired was An Café. I felt so bad, 'cause I didn't go to their gig. Then came Mix Speaker's,Inc. I have to say that they are still awesome! My friend didn't introduce it to me. I went to Tarjoustalo to see is there some cool magazines and there were german magazine called Popcorn. I checked posters and there was poster of them and my first tought was, that they look awesome and extremely unique. So I bought the magazine and started to get know their music and etc. And again I felt very bad, because they had had a gig in Finland about month ago. I got knew Psycho le Cému through Mix Speaker's,Inc. Because it was Aya's and seek's former band.

After those two bands I found out an awesome band called Versailles. Now a days Versailles is one of my favorite bands. When I first saw picture of them I liked HIZAKI's look very much. He is so gorgeous! Then I went to youtube and watched The Revenant Choir PV and I saw something extremely cute and by that I mean TERU. About after month Jasmine You passed away :'( and I bet every fan was extremely sad...
I had little break about listening Versailles and then the GazettE rose up, but now a days I got my zeal for Versailles back. And I have to add that they have many kick ass songs. Kaya makes also awesome music and his laugh is awesome :D

And at the end why I like Visual Kei?
It's just awesome and unique. If I have to comparate japanese and american music, I think japanese artists and bands look so much more interesting and they have their own things. And imo true man have guts to wear dresses :)
Japanese rule my world. thank you!

I have soooo many projects going on now...
1. I have to do my pre-task for those exams.
2. I have huge Teru drawing I want finish.
3. Or actually there are two of them ^
4. I have planned to make video which includes funny moments with Versailles and some other artists and bands.
5. I want translate Serenade in Finnish.
6. My cosplay costume must be done before june.
7. And then I have some random drawings which I need to finish.

Tomorrow is my birthday! yay!
Few days ago was Terus birthday :3
お誕生日おめでとう！

Isn't he adorable <3



Justin booobiiee xD I laugh when I first saw  watch this.. hilarious

On tuesday my parcel came! yay! I was so excited when I got notification which said that my parcel is waiting me in the post office.


5 solo pictures, one group picture and frames :D

We have easter vacation! I'm so happy that I don't have to go to school, so I can rest few days ^_^
I have eaten many chocolate eggs. (Interesting nee?)

On friday we went to Helsinki. There we went to Cantina West. It's Mexican restaurant and the food was delicious. Dad bought me early birthday present: the GazettEs DIM Limited edition CD and Versailles' Lyrical Sympathy Special edition CD.


When we watched the document from DIM, where they make the album, my dad fell asleep :'D It was so boring. (kidding)

I just received an e-mail which said that my parcel is on its way to Finland (・ω・)

I want go to Russia, 'cause Kaya will be there at Tokyo Decadance and I want to see him. Have to star beg it from mom... Somehow I feel that mom doesn't let me go.

Why he didn't come to Finland? (°Д°)


That clip made me laugh :'D Especially Jukas words Welcome to, welcome to, welcome to Versailles at the end, and way he said it xD

Today I've been allmost whole day alone at home. And I drew 1½ drawings :D

Kaya is following me on Twitter. yay!
Few days ago I realized how good singer he actually is. I mean, I've been listening his music for sometime now, but I've never drawn attention to his voice. And his songs are awesome!


kawaii desu nee? :3

Another highlight of my day was when I realized that Kisaki looks like fish 8'D


pufferfish :D (sorry Kisaki fans. No offense. I'm just tired.)

Damn my life is boring...

It's been so long since I got any drawings finished. I finally drew something without stopping. Maybe it's because I haven't got anything else to do 'cause I'm home 24/7... Today I got the best laughs for long time! Janni actually drew something. From now on I will call her to comic drawer.


Mine, Jannis and moms drawings. Janni is absolutely the most talented member of our family.

I (or actually mom) ordered Versailles limited edition TFC "A3 Portrait Set". There were only six left when we bought it. It includes one group foto and five solo photos. I can't wait for it ^.^

Yesterday I found out wondeful artist called マリア. He is japanese (surprise!) street performer. When I first saw his picture, I thought that he looks little bit like Hizaki, except his hair is more colorful :'D. Some of his songs are very funny.

I love his hair (´∀｀)

Yesterday was funny day :D, tough when I woke up I felt little sick.
We did a class trip to Helsinkis Sanomatalo. There we get chance to be reporters of different magazines. I was Ilta-Sanomas sport reporter. It was funny ^_^

When we got back to school, we had social studies test D8 I'm not very good at that subject, but I have to say that the test was easier than I assumed it to be.

School day ended at 3 p.m. I was with Mari. We went to Vaaralas McDonald's. And after that we went to grocery store to buy some sweets.


Candy Spray. It's delicious 8D

Today I'm sick... I've catch a cold. I could barely sleep last night, 'cause I wasn't feeling fine.

Janni is best! Imo not.

She is so expensive sister D: Today I lost 5 euros, because she wanted coca-cola. And then she pretends that my moneys is hers. I'm trying to watch Salatut Elämät at the same time while I'm trying to write this. They are such a good actors, I'm ashamed.


About three months to Versailles gig <3 I wonder when the tickets will come to sale...

Awww<33 Teru is so cuuutteee ^_^ (Love his shorts) *drool*

Tomorrow I can relax :3 'cause Janni promised sort out the ads. (she's poor and desperate and needs money)

Yesterday was very slippery. I almost fell D: Streets were icy and there were thin water layer on top of that. I was spreading the advertisements and it was extremely difficult to rise some hills with that heavy cart (it must have looked funny). My shoes were wet when I got back home, because I stepped on huge icecold puddle :D. In the evening me, my sister and our dad went to pizza. I ate Hawaii pizza, it includes salami, pineapple and bluecheese (I know you are interested in what I ate ;D)


There are a lot of snow in our yard

I should soon start my costume(s) to Tracon. I'm still wondering should I do two costumes or do I use same costume both days.

and btw. Janni broke our camera ( that's 3rd time). edit. I fixed it (゜∀゜)

I think I go practice my very low guitar skills. ε=┏( ・_・)┛


My guitar :)

I just remembered, that I forgot to put my grade point average to my subject selection card. I hope it doesn't matter very much. (>_<)
Soon I should start doing my pre-task for Helsinkis visual arts high schools entrance examination. I wonder can I get there. Because I'm not very creative and the pre-tasks subject is "I closed my eyes, and I remembered..."

This weekend me and my sister are in dads place and we haven't done anything special.


I have to say, that I love that live performance (゜3゜)
It always give me shivers.
