Actual new K-On news that's not about figures? Don't get too excited though.

http://www.tbs.co.jp/anime/k-on/k-on_tv/news/news1602.html

It's been five years since the "K-ON!! Live Event ~Come with Me~" concert/performance at the Saitama Super Arena on February 20, 2011. To commemorate it, apparently they're planning some kind of "hi-res source music" release for the series (whatever that means), along with some screenings of the old event BD.

Not sure how much higher they can push the music quality from whatever that last mega box set release was, but I guess that's what they're going for? Don't really know much about remastering music.

Heh. Not only were they hipster enough to release K-On! music on vinyl. They released it on 7 inch EP sized vinyls. Fuwa Fuwa Tiiiiime.

Is asmr real or just a weird fetish thing?

Real. Put on headphones for maximum effect. The triggers that affect you will feel like a little electrical wave is flowing over your skull. It's also like an ear massage. The only negative thing that happens to me is that I can build up my tolerance for certain sounds. So I have to quit those sounds for a while before they trigger me again.

For example this specific video is one of the best ones for me. And this specific part (the tool she is using at that time) is so good that it works on me every time. It's the best ASMR trigger I've ever heard.

It's so creepy to watch this, It really makes me legit uncomfortable.

What's she even doing with that hook? Stabbing my ears??????????????????

She is picking at what would be hardened ear wax.

Hey I'm not saying this is cool to boast about in public or whatever but the sounds do wonders for me.

EDIT: Check out one of the top comments in that "ear poking" link. Somebody else agrees with me that that sound is godly :)

EDIT 2: I bet Mugi would be an excellent ASMRer.

Monthly reminder:

Fall 2016 (sometime in week 37-39)
Tokyo, Kanto, Japan


I'm planning another group trip to Japan next year. Maybe you want to join?

We'll be going sometime during late September so we can visit Tokyo Game Show 2016.

Most likely going for close to 2 weeks. 1 week in Tokyo and then the rest in the Kansai (Kyoto/Osaka) region.

You need to co-ordinate with the others that are going and order the flight yourself. I will help out getting us an apartment, hostel and/or hotel for a cheap price. If we get a hostel room we will get a private room for our group, but with shared bathrooms and showers. Hotel or apartment will be a private room for our group with private bathroom and shower.

Estimated budget should be about $1300+flight cost if you want to only join us for the first week in Tokyo and about $2600+flight cost if you want to join in on the whole trip. This depends on what kind of accommodation we'll get.

You will need to confirm if you're going and order the flight by mid-April 2016.

It will be best if we do a group of max 4 people, so at the start of April I'll go through the list in order of who's shown interest and confirm if you're going or not. Feel free to show interest even if there's already 4 people on the list in case somebody else have to drop out by then.


Some of the things we could be checking out in Tokyo:
Tokyo Game Show 2016
Ghibli museum
Akihabara + nearby Kanda shrine (from Love Live)
Nakano Broadway
Odaiba (which has the giant Gundam statue and other stuff)
Shibuya
Some of the most famous shrines and a park
Other things you want to check out

Some of the things we could be checking out in Kansai region:
K-On school building
Nipponbashi
Day trip to Nara
Day trip to Hiroshima
More temples and shrines
Other things you want to check out


And here's pictures from the Fall 2015 trip:

So over the weekend I learned about this girls rock group called BAND-MAID, who take the concept of "rock music while dressed in maid-cafe-style outfits" and, due to actually being a full five-piece band, make it work.

They're going to be playing at Sakura-Con in Seattle next month, which really just adds to the guest list that makes me depressed I can't go there.

BAND-MAID is great. No idea how I found them exactly, but I probably started searching after Lady Baby, Babymetal and stuff. I also really like that they can actually play their instruments instead of just dancing there and doing an Idol thing.

Mike if you go alone, you can go to all lewd stores and stay there as long as you like. No worries.

That would imply the other ones would not go into lewd stores. Which I highly doubt. Or are you telling me there are other reasons to visit Japan except for lewd stores?
