Post your Japanese CD/DVD collection

Madmoiselle_Silk · Dec 2, 2017

I was going to post my collection, but it was the double amount of words possible to post XD Seeing the list made me slightly depressed though, so much stuff and some I really don't even care about

EDIT:
Talking about music collections, several months ago I came across 2 photos, labeled as first press SAD MASK VHS photos, and I'm curious if anyone listened to VE and bought the VHS back in the days and possibly knows anything about these. Like which shop gave them.

Have you ever read Marie Kondo's book 'The Life-Changing Magic of Tidying Up: The Japanese Art of Decluttering and Organizing'/'人生がときめく片づけの魔法'?

There is a section in there that really made me change my relationship to my belongings and how they bring me joy. For example, through my life I've bought many things that I wanted, but over time have lost interest in or no longer really want to hold on to, but I would feel bad just getting rid of them. In her book she me made realise that sometimes just having bought and owned that object was what brought me joy and it has served it's purpose and it's time to let it go.

At one point last year and just before I left for Japan I ended up going through everything I owned and I ended up letting go of a lot of things that just didn't bring me joy. Anyway, off topic, but your comment made me think of that book, I do recommend reading it sometime!

Also her folding techniques are awesome, I fold nearly all of my clothing now, which means less coat-hangers, which means more things stored neatly in the closet, which means more space!

Sounds like an interesting book, I'll see if I can find it!

The thing is that I've come to that conclusion myself, I've realised many things I've bought because it made me happy at the moment, but now I don't really care, and I'm trying really hard to reflect over what kind of item it is I'm buying now, so that I won't end up with even more shit to put in my mountain of...stuff.
I'm pretty awesome with folding though, I've been working with clothes for a long time, so I even have what I'd like to call folding OCD, if I go into a shop and see clothes lie around unfolded or just messy, I'll do it "properly" XD

Cantavanda · May 9, 2018

Hey Klaus I remember you had a MM demo tape that you showed me on video chat. Is it The 1th Anniversary? Or another one? Because I got that one too now!

Those are some cool incquisitions! The b/w tapes are really cool.

I won this one, I wonder if anyone else here has it, I haven't shipped it yet so I can't share details about it.

What is this? :lol:

A case for one of those "La Collection" boxes?

Js_klaus · Jan 28, 2023

Yup, this one, it says it's for 3 "works" but I think it can fit more than 3.

Glad to see that someone finally picked one of these up! I tried tracking down some information about it a while ago but couldn't turn anything up.

The design looks like something that would suit Dir en grey, it's a shame that they didn't pick something more suitable for Malice Mizer's theme.

I have quite a lot of CDs and DVDs (too many, honestly), so I don't feel like going through them, but I decided to take a look at some casette tapes I own.

- I have two different versions of the "1st anniversary" tape from Malice Mizer. These better be legit tapes or I'm going to have a heart attack. I do have some unofficial bootleg tape from MM as well, I think it's a live tape.
- "Mannequin" by Aliene Ma'riage.
- "Madame Tarantula" and "Street of Alice" by Velvet Eden.
- Two copies of "クッキーチェア" by Da'vidノ使徒:aL. Sadly, I seem to be missing their first tape.
- "青玉 -サファイア-" a tape by Das:vasser.
- And finally a self-titled tape from "嘆キ使徒". Took me a moment to google what the heck this even was.

Honestly, I'm a bit surprised by how few casette tapes I've bought over the years. I suppose I just don't see the point in casettes, unless they're the only way to hear something.

Come join the Spectrogram Inspectors Club then XD Any 15kHz lines today?

Js_klaus · Feb 7, 2023

A live tape, amazing!

Js_klaus · Mar 10, 2023

Well, here are some pictures of the 10th anniversary box, it's pretty heavy, around 1800gr.

flowersofnight · Mar 10, 2023

Oh, so you put CDs in it? For some reason I thought the whole thing was supposed to be a holder for just one of those big sets with the music boxes :lol:
