Who are you and what is this?
My name is Emma, and I’m a boomer with a library sciences degree that complements my know-it-all personality. I also care too much about vkei.
Originally I wanted this site to just house some translations that aren’t solely about my favorite band, in contrast to my lynch. fansite, shadow impulse, but then some guy made the news for scamming people while pretending to be Kyo from Dir en grey. I had this place all set up for eventual translations, so I used it to document this particular bit of news since it was convenient.
Now I use it for writing thinkpieces on visual kei with the intention of trying to fill in some of the knowledge gaps I recognize in the Western visual kei fanbase caused by language barriers and repeated misinformation over time.
I still want to put vkei content translations here and I will soon! I also intend to take requests so watch this space, I guess.
If for some reason you want to know more about me on a personal level, you can look at my carrd.
