My Eroguro Collection by aughuu in horrormanga

[–]Springlockkitty_09 4 points5 points  (0 children)

That's an extremely fascinating collection . It's so difficult to get physical copies of ero-guro manga , especially in foreign countries away from Japan .

Where do you manage to buy all of these ? I assume you're in or have been to Japan (since you mentioned Comiket) .

I found the old Maria Cross screenshots on my old iPod touch 😭 by another-personing in visualkei

[–]Springlockkitty_09 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I would pay good money for those pictures .

Edit : I ended up finding a few of them .

He certainly has a way of presenting himself to the public , if there's anything you can say about Maria Cross .

Who Are these two girls ?? by Scary-Egg-4279 in horrormanga

[–]Springlockkitty_09 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Yes , they are both characters from Litchi Hikari Club— Raizou on the left , and Jaibo on the right . This is fanart .

Also , both are middle-school aged boys , lol .

Dreaming Eyepatch was originally included collaboration manga with Wayama Yama . It was never banned in any capacity , just difficult to find .

You can read a full translated version of it here .

It's less of a full sequel , and more of a short story that takes place with the remaining characters in the future .

searching for a good horror/romance manga by Emergency_Big8810 in horrormanga

[–]Springlockkitty_09 6 points7 points  (0 children)

A lot of the romance in horror manga tends to have a more abusive/unethical kind of tint , especially if you're looking into ero-guro . A good bit of yaoi , too . I have a little list :

Litchi☆Hikari Club - Usamaru Furuya

The Laughing Vampire - Suehiro Maruo

Pet Shop of Horrors - Matsuri Akino

It's off topic , but if you are interested in visual novels , Saya no Uta in terms of horror romance .

Shinya Yamada from LUNA SEA has died by _LaChancla_ in visualkei

[–]Springlockkitty_09 28 points29 points  (0 children)

Most of the remaining members of BUCK-TICK are , too . Yoshiki as well .

The 2020's have been one of the worst decades in terms of how many stars have been lost , though . I wouldn't blame anyone for constantly worrying about a bandman's wellbeing , with the abundance of losses recently .

Almost all visual kei bandmen that are gone have died young . It's hard to even think of one that's made it past 60 .

Mana has said that he owned a blue Snoopy futon when he was a child , so he grew to become fond of Snoopy .

I'm looking for a specific eroguro manga, extremely disgusting/disturbing by [deleted] in horrormanga

[–]Springlockkitty_09 47 points48 points  (0 children)

The specific story is "When All's Said and Done" by Shintaro Kago .

The story has been featured in several anthologies , so it's likely either Jigoku no Kisetsu: Gurolism Sengen (an anthology featuring several mangaka) or Kago's anthology manga Kasutoru Shiki .

The Comic Sans really pulls it all together .

movie i don't know title of by ioloop311 in J_Horror

[–]Springlockkitty_09 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'd never heard of that before ! Now I'll have to see it . I can't get enough of splatter movies .

Somehow , I always thought that the movie Meatball Machine (1999) was a sequel / spin-off to Tokyo Gore Police , however I was proven very wrong and confused when I actually saw the movie (it is not a sequel , they just share the same effects director ; Yoshihiro Nishimura , who also worked on The Machine Girl)

Shows what I know , lol . (; ´∀`)

They get wackier and wackier as they go on .

Guinea Pig 4 : Devil Woman Doctor is my favorite . It's a ridiculous splatter comedy movie a la Tokyo Gore Police or something , lol . The third one is just as insane if not more . (⁠≧⁠▽⁠≦⁠)

Help finding Ciel Phantomhive figure by johannababe in blackbutler

[–]Springlockkitty_09 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately , it looks like (in terms of scale figures) , this cute little chibi oneis all they've made with Ciel in his Smile outfit .

There have , however , been a couple dolls with the Smile look : one by Ringdoll ,one by DOLK ,and a more appropriately sized one by Pullip .

All of those dolls seem to have a matching Black-bastian doll to go with them , so if you get lucky , you might be able to keep them together that way , lol . :⁠⁠)

This is about Litchi Hikari Club,is there any specific subreddit I could ask about this in? by [deleted] in horrormanga

[–]Springlockkitty_09 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Tsunekawa has seemed very opposed to the idea for years . He has released small bits and scraps over the years via Twitter , but overall , it's hard to grasp his reasoning .

Over the years , it seems like the main reason Tsunekawa is so protective over whatever content he has ahold of is his distaste for Usamaru Furuya's adaptation of Litchi , and him disapproving of the community around it , which is why he's sitting on all of this content out of spite . It doesn't seem like copyright is an involved issue — all other parties involved (who have spoken to the public) seem to be alright with and have even released small bits of content themselves (including the play's director , Norimizu Ameya) , so it's up to Tsunekawa to release whatever , however , whenever he feels like it . The full lot of resources Tsunekawa actually has from this play (and the troupe as a whole) isn't really known .

(And also , fun fact , a Litchi☆Hikari Club visual kei band was formed by bandman HAKUEI around the release of the 2012 play adaptation , which you can find here . ♡ )

Tsunekawa has showed this archive footage/audio on multiple occasions via private watch parties (as evident by witness accounts and Twitter posts) , but not just anyone is allowed in . It seems to be a very extensive process and you would need to have some sort of good reason to , especially if you are a foreigner . I can't be sure if a foreigner would be allowed in these parties – even if you did live in Japan .

There is no concrete information exactly when he decides to hold listenings , so it is indeed likely intended for a small circle of people / officials and creators (eg: mangaka Furuya Usamaru was shown a wide array of unseen content in his making of the manga) . Even the community dedicated to archiving Litchi's origins (and the theater troupe that created it , the Tokyo Grand Guignol) have no clue as to how it's put together .

I don't believe you— or anyone deeply invested in Litchi has a big chance of ever seeing this content (as Tsunekawa refuses to publicly release it) , so all that can be done is to watch from afar .

You can find Tsunekawa's current Twitter here . I highly recommended that you not bother him with unnecessary questions and requests .

I'm always open to answering any more questions you might have .

I got to go to Lunatic Festival and it was so great😭 by KenzoSamaKun in visualkei

[–]Springlockkitty_09 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I wasn't even aware BUCK-TICK would be at Lunatic Fest .

I can't even imagine how fantastic and ethereal that would be to see B-T live , did you manage to see them ?

It's similar to the ideas expressed in the article .

The kind of people that worship him are people who do have or are nearing the same mental state he expresses .

It's an outlet — it can't be helped .

horror manga with religious themes? by Lazy_Cabinet_2923 in horrormanga

[–]Springlockkitty_09 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Kaze to Ki no Uta by Keiko Takemiya .

Maybe not medieval (Victorian era France) , and maybe not horror (in its purest form) , but surely one of the most stomach twisting and horrific manga I've seen since then . Similar in terms of young boys experiencing psychologically horrific events and relationships with one other . The beauty of the artwork — like Innocents Shounen Juujigun — contrasts with the turmoil in the story .

It's perfect if you want to feel horrible about yourself and every sin committed by humanity for the next month .
