Sechuna Group Order #2 [30 Apr 2008|02:39pm] minarin Although not Japanese (so doesn't really fit this community), I figure some people here may be interested. I am hosting another Sechuna Group Order for people in and outside of Montreal. If you're interested, check this post for information and check back to my journal regularly! - x-posted post comment

Message from JSHOCK [09 Mar 2008|04:08pm] le_livre_noir I believe that this could interest some people of the community. post comment

SECHUNA GROUP ORDER [16 Feb 2008|07:30pm] minarin [ mood | sick ] [ music | T.T.Ma - Magic ] Hello everyone! NOTE: This post is pretty much for Montreal people only. BUT, if there's someone who wants something, I could order it for you and ship it out to you ^_^ I'd like to order from Sechuna, a Korean brand for clothes. I just recently found out that although everyone thinks they don't ship internationally, they do!!! HOWEVER, you need a Korean VISA which only Koreans have, haha. So, I'll be adding a Sechuna shopping service to the general one I already have since I have access to a Korean VISA. ( FAKE CUT to all the information you'd ever need! ) P.S: I know it's not Japanese, but still, haha. post comment

[02 Feb 2008|01:39pm] rawkenr0ll Hey, I'm really interested in Asian ball-jointed dolls. I know there's a club in Montreal that meets with their dolls, but I don't know where or when they meet, or even if you can get in if you're not a doll owner (wayyy out of my price range). Could anyone tell me? I'd love to visit a meeting and learn more. 2 comments|post comment

Japanese Karaoke Updates Journal [21 Jan 2008|11:45pm] karaoke_oui Hello everyone, this is zarya. I just wanted to let you know that, if you're into Japanese karaoke and you go (more or less) regularly to PangPang to get your fix, I created a new journal dedicated to posting the future updates of their Japanese catalog. I'll also update with general news about Japanese karaoke in Montreal, so feel free to friend karaoke_oui! Also if you have any question regarding the karaoke joints that have Japanese songs in town, the machine/system they use at PangPang, or anything else that might be related, just leave a comment and I'll get back at you. 2 comments|post comment

Vous aimez le j-rock/visual kei? Vite lisez! [28 Oct 2007|02:21pm] getoutofmyband [ music | Hagakure - Fall Breeze ] Salut à tous membres de mtl_japan_alt! C'est Maki 真輝! La plupart d'entre-vous me connaissez... (et si ce n'est pas le cas nous auront la chance de nous rencontrer bientôt!). J'arrive avec de grandes nouvelles! Je travaille maintenant pour GUERILL'ART! & STUDIOBATSU qui sont un label et sous-label japonais. Le projet sur lequel je travaille présentement avec mon employeur ( K.JOE fondateur de GUERILL'ART! & STUDIOBATSU) c'est l'expension de la scène J-rock/V-kei au Canada ainsi que la promotion de la tournée Américaine des groupes de V-kei Hagakure & Antifeminism. Nous sommes en train de faire une étude sur ce qui se passe en lien avec le Japon et plus particulièrement la musique J-rock au Canada.. (La ville présentement sous étude est bien sûr Montréal!) les résultats de cette étude seront donnés à des compagnies de disque japonaises et les bands y auront également accès. Plusieurs artistes qui sont chez FreeWill (http://www.free-will.co.jp/music.html) voudraient bien venir ici.. alors il faut leur montrer qu'on veut bien d'eux! Qu'il y a une clientèle ici aussi! Si les résultats de l'étude sont convainquants il se pourrait bien que le Canada devienne un autre pays fétiche des bands nippons. En Europe au moins 1 band par mois se produit. Il ya également des évênements comme Tokyo Decadence qui y prennent lieu (et bientôt au USA).. donc il faut "faire du bruit" si l'on veut attirer nous aussi leur attention! Encore une fois une grosse partie de l'influence vient directement des fans de ce genre de musique et évênements. STUDIOBATSU est d'ailleurs en contact avec Adrien le fondateur de Tokyo Decadence et dès que nous avons des statistiques convainquantes nous pourrons lui parler et faire tout pour qu'il ammène Tokyo Decadence en Amérique du Nord! Alors tout ça vous rends fébrile?!? ^__^ Quand on vous dit "Musique et évenements japonais au Canada, bientôt!" vous sautillez sur votre chaise et criez "Hiiiiiiiiiiii oui oui ouiiiii! Je veux qu'ils viennent!" Alors prennez quelques minutes pour joindre ce forum et répondre à notre sondage. ici: http://www.studiobatsu.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=44#44 Vous pouvez également participer sur le reste du forum. Vous pouvez y poster des photos, fanart, review de concert..etc. Il ya même des sections comme "Quizz et jeux" qui pourraient vous permettre de gagner des prix autographiés et plus! Les bands actifs chez FreeWill ont access à ce forum.. présentement je peux vous assurer qu'Hagakure & Antifeminism regardent le site régulièrement puisque qu'ils sont représentés par GUERILL'ART!/STUDIOBATSU pour leur tournée américaine! Ils apprécieront surement de voir qu'il y a des fans ici! Animons leur forum! Passons le message à nos copains! Make our j-rock dreams come true! http://studiobatsu.com/forum (présentement le site de STUDIOBATSU est en grosse re-construction..mais ne vous gênez pas..le forum vient d'être mis en fonction!) Alors merci de répondre à notre questionnaire! Vous pouvez passer le message à tout vos amis! Nous avons prouvé que le bouche à oreille est efficace dans le passé..nous pouvons encore le faire! Merci encore et Bonne journée!

Message from Otakuthon. [27 Jul 2007|11:19pm] le_livre_noir [ music | Planet - Metronome ] Hello everyone! Most of you know of the Otakuthon event next week and as I've been informed by a staff from Otakuthon, there will be a meeting/photoshoot that concerns us during the event. Here is a forward of the message they sent to the community. ***** There's a Jrock cosplays and japanese fashion photoshoot Occasion: Otakuthon When: Saturday 4th Time: 16H00 PM Where: Second floor at Reggie's bar Why: Because we need to show people in an anime convention, there's not only anime and games. What to wear: Do I have to say something about this?XD Anything that is relative about fashion(gothic lolitas, ganguras, kimonos etc.) or jrock cosplays. Come as much as you can guys, it would be nice to show how beautiful and unique japanese fashion is. Thanks and see you there, Gangenoir. ***** Right now, -I- for one cannot attend Otakuthon but will do my best for my friends whom are doing a Concert at the event.. so if you may, please participate to this event or give the message to your friends about it! I am well aware that there people whom would be interested in this event that do not have the internet as we speak, so it would be nice of you all to spread the information around. Have fun, all of you! post comment

NANA day? [18 Jun 2007|06:49pm] minarin I saw this on the montreal forum and thought, "This may call for a lolita meet-up?!" I'm not sure if it's strictly NANA cosplay, but I commented asking. I'd like to try to attend this, lolita meeting or not, but it's on a Saturday so I'll have to see if I can take time off work. Anyone interested? More information here. cross-posted to montreal_loli and my journal post comment
