Keeping up with MEJIBRAY: The Series

⨯ . ⁺ ✦ ⊹ ꙳ ⁺ ‧ ⨯. ⁺ ✦ ⊹ . * ꙳ ✦ ⊹

Hello to my favorite bitches, long time no see! Ready for a classic mejigay gossip sesh?

If you were anything like me, you started a Tumblr blog about visual kei very young (I've posted about vk on this blog since I was 16) and now you're an adult. MEJIBRAY broke up around 6 years ago now I think right? I am now 24, have a masters degree and planning on moving to Japan in spring. Crazy how time flies right.

Let's refresh our minds a little bit okay? Now I'm assuming you remember everything from those 6-ish years ago. The MEJIBRAY label/contract issue with Tsuzuku and Koichi, Tsuzuku's borderline disorder, the refusal to do encores during the last tour, the charcoal face paint and the result of it all which was 8p-sb. If you want a recap on that specific semi-disbandment drama there's plenty of posts that I made about it while it was happening so feel free to check it out! (keep in mind I was like 18 and very dramatic writing those posts lol) There's also this great summary from a redditor in the comment section here

The same redditor even filled me in on stuff I felt out of the loop about in their reply to the OP. I know 8p-sb is gone and Koichi does Trembling Bambi solo stuff while Genki (Tsuzuku) is a vocal coach, is in the band 30 seconds certain victory, and revives VanessA occasionally. But this has also happened:

Yeah what the fuck Koichi? Now, I do remember starting that yakuza theory here on Tumblr back in the MEJIBRAY semi-disbanding days. I read it on tanuki and told y'all about it and got soooo much shit for it at the time lol. Looks like Koichi kind of confirmed the theory! (take that rude anons in my asks back then lmao). However, Koichi staying in the same industry he claims is rotten and run by the yakuza is definitely weird. Why talk all high and mighty while benefitting from it one may ask. Either way, for those wondering what Koichi is up to, there's your answer and an explanation to why he got backlash. About the VanessA stuff, one can conclude that our favorite duo, Genki and Koichi, doesn't seem to be that involved with each other anymore.

I would also like to take time to talk about Genki's well being, as some of you might know he has a youtube channel in Japanese. From my so-so Japanese skills I can still keep up with a lot of what he's saying. Good news, he's doing better now than the MEJIBRAY days from the looks of it. In this video he talked about how the photo from the MEJIBRAY days was him being unwell and the picture to the right is him feeling much better!

(TW for this paragraph: self harm) In another video he talked about various topics/gave advice such as about self harm/cutting and how it annoys him when people say he shouldn't hurt the body his parents gave to him. He thinks that's an incorrect way to tell someone to stop cutting and seems in general to be very open to talk about this topic while smiling and not getting angered. So he seemed very stable, mature and content to me.

What about Meto/Yutaro? Well, he seems to be a happy chef! As for MiA... I've seen him hang out with hosts like Roland and in general seems to live that bougie life. Roland is a top host who aims for the prince vibe just like MiA, and is open about his plastic surgeries just like MiA. Now let's get into a really recent topic about Mia!

Just like me, you might still follow our MEJIBRAY boys on various social medias. And just like me, you might have seen MiA's picture where he chews a bone. "Huh, weird" you might have thought as you scrolled past it. Well here I am, resurrecting this blog once again, just to tell you that the bone is MiA's fucking ribcage bone. I ain't posting that picture, find it yourself cause it's gross.

As MiA poses in the same costumes from his MEJIBRAY days and posts them on Instagram, you'd think his life and social media posts were a bit mundane. Then, a fucking picture of him chewing a thick ass bone pops up. The bone in question was taken out during a ribcage surgery, that MiA claims was done in order for him to create a custom guitar with his BONE INFUSED into it. Yeah I know. What???

In general you could either see it as him being a massive attention hungry person, or as unhinged and putting his life in danger. Bone surgeries are very harmful and anyone with two working eyes can see his shaved jawline bone already. So adding a removed ribcage bone to that... It's dangerous.

That's it for the gossip sesh! I'm thinking of making this "Keeping up with MEJIBRAY: The series" a thing whenever I think there needs to be a big gossip update like this.

To anyone still here in the MEJIBRAY Tumblr tags and to anyone following this blog, thanks for reading all of this and I hope we can laugh at this absurdity together! <3

I stole @kusokurae69 picture, I had to do smth with these 2 😭

Re-uploading old post from @toyotayou sensei. It's interesting how she drew the exact differences between the 2 versions just from slight tweak to hairstyles and expressions.

Adachi

Manga. No-nonsense kinda guy, not as easily impressed, more straighforward, a bit gloomier before Kurosawa becomes a constant presence to his life, marshmallow cheeks, dango belly, when he smiles flowers bloom around him.

Drama. Easily surprised and wary, more prone to panic and anxiety, easily becomes touched and cry about it, more shy, babyface, big warm doe eyes, when he smiles the sun shines around him.

Everything else is the same, both are angelic and can k-word you with his simple sincere heartfelt taglines.

Kurosawa

Manga. Just a tad flirtier, more straightforward and confident in approaching and hitting on Adachi.

Drama. More big brotherly type of feels. A King of TLC and self-restraint.

Everything else is the same...best lover anyone can hope for, suave, cool, composed, respectful, etc.. practically isn't of human descendent for his near-perfectness. Period.

Tsuge

Pretty much the same. Manga! Tsuge a tad more composed, drama! Tsuge a tad more chaotic and more anxiety prone just like his bestie.

Minato

Pretty much the same. Drama! Minato is perhaps a bit sweeter.

Fujisaki

Manga. A kawaii girl, cheery, a fujo

Drama. A kirei girl, give off more mature vibe, fairy godmother, aro/ace girl rep

Both are the biggest supporter of KuroAda/KuroDachi.

Rokkaku

Basically the same hype, cuteness, and cheerfulness. Drama! Rokkaku is a tad more dense.

GAHHH THAT MAKES ME SO HAPPY THANK YOU!!! the akiangel lover numbers are truly growing by the day ;;v;; THEY ARE TRULY A PERFECT MATCH FOR EACHOTHER....if akiangel not canon then why contrasting color schemes 🤔 fujimoto made these two so gay for eachother it hurts OTL ILY TOO I HOPE YOU HAVE A WONDERFUL DAY AS WELL!!! please have this akiangel panel as a goodbye gift. look at them theyre sleeping next to eachother thats so cute :,)))
