The news about that Buck Tick fan site just got worse.
I asked about it in a fan group I'm in and someone said the site owner passed away due to her chronic health issues, but was I guess, planning on bringing the site back after taking a break due to Atsushi Sakurai's passing last year.
I feel so bad now. Both not knowing she died and and that I never backed the site up when I could have. If there's no way to revive it, that's over 30 years of band history and just amazing information on how to travel around Japan if you aren't familiar with the area. I'm absolutely devastated. Someone said it's on the Wayback Machine, but it only gave me problems when I tried to months ago.
For me, fireworks are a bit too loud for my sensitive ears, so I just stay inside. Apparently us Tennesseeans have some kinds of fireworks that are banned in other states according to the fireworks shop my dad & I went to last year. Kinda wild seeing such claims on the boxes for those things.

Well I was trying to get super god tier on this site, but now that they changed the tier system, my motivation for that has been killed.
I'm guessing they changed it either because: 1. They felt that "God" isn't a good enough description for a dedicated user of the Lost Media Wiki Forums or... 2. Since this is mostly used by English-speaking people & most of the English-speaking people are from the US, they probably wanted to get this off the radar of possible offended Christians.
Could be both.

I swear, I sometimes feel like I'd have to start watching more anime & playing more Japanese games just to verify that, just because I'm mainly into European games & cartoons doesn't mean I don't have interests in some anime or Japanese games. I clearly do & have done my fair share of anime watches(Angel's Egg in particular is a great visual experience IMO), but like, IDK, I guess it's just me having already watched A WHOLE LOTTA videos talking about obscure Japanese games & anime constantly that led to a point where I kinda had to stop for a while because I didn't want to be hearing about the same country over & over again, which is why I haven't watched much of Sakura Stardust for a while.
A couple of anime & Japanese games still peak my interest occasionally, but after a while it just becomes less interesting because I hear about it too often. Same for American media, especially if it's 100% a California marathon of TV shows, which is commonplace because of Hollywood. These days, I am more into searching for oddball media from elsewhere, especially from various European countries & Southeast Asia. I kinda just want a bit of variety because every country has their own media stories & whatnot.
Now I'll be waiting for some weaboo to reply to me saying, "No, Japan & anime are all that matter & you're a dumb little frozen cupcake for saying such anti-Japan bullcrap", or something similar to that.
I'm saying this while trying to find where I can watch Yadamon in English subs because no one on YouTube has bothered to upload the whole series despite copyright claims seemingly not being an issue.

I wish my state was like that but we only get like sparklers, smoke bombs and things like that, no fountains, aerials, rockets, cakes, etc

I'm like that with Canadian shows, i'm finding myself seeking out stuff like Holly Hobbie, Ready or Not, Really Me, Our Hero, Life With Boys, Mr Young, Breaker High, Star Falls, etc

People in Virginia can't buy aerial fireworks but it's less than 10 minutes to the Tennessee border to buy them and bring em back across -- I assume this is the case for most Tennessee fireworks that are banned, hahaha
This building -- and the others like it on my yearly treks to Alabama -- are common enough and largely overwhelming to the naive Virginian's senses (me, I hate fireworks) so I think I've been in one of these maybe once ever?

Glad to know I am not alone on hating fireworks & how loud they are. Even worse is that we're seemingly lucky because apparently the fireworks in China are even louder.
