Does anyone know if there is anything cool of Versailles that can be enjoyed by a U.S. person (meaning like Region code 1 and stuff like that) besides the photobook, CDs, and Aesthetic Violence? Like, another DVD, a poster, or anything?

Also, I found this pic of a 2008 calendar and I have never seen it for sale anywhere. Do any of you know where I can find it or a 2009 calendar?

I'm not sure if this is true for all computers, but I'm pretty sure computers can play both region DVDs. Mine plays the DVD and CDs that came with the Japanese Noble release. Also, when some one picks it up, can anyone tell me if it comes with any extra goodies? Japanese Release Noble came with

A sticker
The CD
The DVD
The picture book

You should ask Tainted Reality. They do all of Versailles American stuff.

huh? What are you thinking happened?

Touya 11-07-2008 01:18 AM

???

I'm confused. What's going on?

YoshimiTheEthereal 11-08-2008 06:31 AM

I don't know, but . . . :confused:
:quesballoon:



I think Versailles should come to perform in my state of Kentucky! We have a city here called "Versailles"! How perfect is that?! There may not be as many fans here as in NY, but they will get the attention of anime fans and they will go and they will get new fans! And I will go! Yay! :rheart:

Miyavifan 11-08-2008 06:49 AM

@ Touya.... I have no clue.

Emone has really confused me.

Touya 11-09-2008 12:00 AM

I want something new.

Give me something new!!!!

Does anyone know any info about the members of Versailles? Besides like, their previous bands? I could be a bigger fan if I knew something more about them.

And I can't wait to see their next look! I guess that won't be until sometime next year, though, will it? They've looked so cool so far!

Shiroichan 11-09-2008 12:45 PM

Kamijo is the vocalist and was member of Lareine
HIZAKI, guitarrist, was member of Sulfuric Acid)
Hizaki worked with Jasmine You (bass) at his solo project "Hizaki grace project"

What do you mean knew more about them? Like their favorite food and whatnot?

Personally, I'm not sure what their personal taste has to do with the music? The music is good and that in the end is what matters right?

YoshimiTheEthereal 11-13-2008 01:41 AM

Yes, but I like to be able to admire someone or think, "Wow. This is a really amazing person", or that they are interesting or something. That's all. Like Gackt, he has supernatural powers because of nearly drowning and lives in a dark house because of his eyes. I think that is pretty interesting.

It's not a big deal, the music is what matters. I just would like to know something.

Touya 11-14-2008 02:59 AM

I guess.

I like them without knowing too much.

YoshimiTheEthereal 11-15-2008 06:18 AM

Oh! I read somewhere that Kamijo started his music career as a roadie for "Malice Mizer"! . . . . What's a 'roadie'? :confused:

Miyavifan 11-15-2008 06:49 AM

I believe that's the person who is in charge of instruments and such. right?

Touya 11-15-2008 05:27 PM

The road crew (or roadies) are the technicians who travel with a band on tour, usually in sleeper buses, and handle every part of the concert productions except actually performing the music with the musicians.

YoshimiTheEthereal 11-16-2008 04:53 AM

Cool! That is really awesome, since Malice Mizer and Versailles are my two fave bands! :pandahurray:

So . . . what are you guys' fave songs by Versailles? Mine are "The Revenant Choir", "Princess", "History of the Other Side", "Aristocrat's Symphony" and "Zombie".

jdragon 01-20-2009 08:52 AM

Hizaki's playing in general is great...but his solo's are always amazinggg
I love any & all of his solo parts...
Kamijo's voice is perfection as well.
~its hard not to listen to any of their songs & not think
its not an absolute masterpiece..at least to me!^^

Touya 01-21-2009 01:58 AM

>sigh< Jasmine needs a new hat. Someone buy him a new hat. That one is killing me...

jdragon 02-05-2009 10:43 AM

kinda random question ~
does anyone know if Kamijo is dating anyone or anything?
I haven't been updating myself on Versailles very much anymore, sadly...
& I wonder if his wife's death is still affecting him or if he's okay with it now..
he could be really happy if he met someone else, ya know?
I hope he's okay by now. . . & I hope he gets back out there~
I suppose I just want him to be happy. .& complete. Maybe he doesn't need anyone else though~idk~ But, he is just so gorgeous in so many ways~I'd hate to know that he's missing out on something. . .or that he may, in fact, be dating & I know nothing about it! lol
I don't really see him as someone who talks about such things though~
So, perhaps no one else knows either!>_<

sasuke91 02-05-2009 12:28 PM

whaaaa? kamijo had a wife who died?? ive never herd that b4 where did you hear that from?

jdragon 02-05-2009 05:04 PM

So, now there is.

I was doing some searching for Kamijo pics and stuff, and found this.

It seems he was married. It's very sad what happened.

Urban Dictionary: Lareine

It's an old article, but still. It's new to me.

@Sasuke91~
I've heard it before from videos on Youtube. . . but its also found in the link at
the beginning of this thread ~ hence the quote thats found above these words~lol
idk. . . maybe its just a rumor~a very sad one. . . that'd be better than it being real!

Miyavifan 02-05-2009 05:11 PM

I would hope for it not to be true, as well.
Though I'm just going to figure it is true.

I guess though, if he had a site, and it was mentioned, that would be more reliable?

As for him dating. It might be good if he is, but I doubt we'll know about it?

I'd be so relieved if it wasn't. . .like really relieved!
& more dependable sources would most def. help with this matter. lol
. . .yeah, I don't think he's the kinda person who'll just talk about who he's dating~! Which is good!

AsianAtHeart 02-05-2009 05:21 PM

Kamijo dating.....wouldn't that be interesting.

>.>

I have a feeling the thing about his wife dying being true at some level, but, as fans, we must respect his privacy.

I'd be happy if he found a woman that compliments his gourgeousness, his voice is too perfect for me to go all angry-fangirly over him seeing someone, anyway.

So would I.
I can see what I can find, if anything.

I don't think so either. He deserves some private things.

@ asian

I agree.

YoshimiTheEthereal 02-06-2009 03:38 AM

jdragon, dearest, what videos did you find of it on YouTube? Just curious. I want to help investigate! I'll start now! ;)

YoshimiTheEthereal 02-06-2009 04:32 AM

Okay! I have found our answers! Go here:

Bonjour Honey~ :: View topic - Kamijo was married?

It pretty much explains how 98% of that article is false. Fanfiction. Horrible lies. Audrey was the name of a song. Nothing more. Here are some highlights I found for you from that forum:

"As for Audrey...that's interesting. inertia would probably know better, but I've never heard that myself. If it were true, one would imagine that New Sodmy's song "Audrey" would have been very moving to Kamijo then, but I don't recall him ever breaking up during it."

"OMG
This crazy article is back !!! XD
(Some years ago, someone on Lareine 'LJ ' page posted this and asked about the "Audrey story" already ^^)
It's nothing more than a stupid injection of fanfic into a "supposed to be serious" article that is moreover as quoted by geikou, full of mistakes ^^;
Just forget about it and remember that Audrey was simply the name of one of new Sodmy 'songs."


"I was going to ask the same thing, I saw the same article. But I thought the whole Audrey story sounded like fan fiction. For one thing, the story has the band writing messages to Kamijo's dead wife in the booklet to "The last of Romance"; I have the deluxe edition, and the messages aren't there. And if I were Kamijo, I'd veto the idea if my bandmates or record label came up with something that silly. I think it would make for uncomfortable reading, I've never seen anything like that on any record sleeve ever."




I hope that helps everyone! It helped me! ;) And I was so sad and moved by that tragic story all this time . . .

Miyavifan 02-06-2009 04:58 AM

Thank you for posting that.

AsianAtHeart 02-06-2009 07:24 AM

Arigatou, Yoshimi ^^

I guess my 'feeling' was, for the most part, wrong >< Eh, whatever, it wasn't a gut feeling, anyway.

But really, for some reason I wouldn't be surprised at all if he really was married at some time.

jdragon 02-06-2009 07:43 AM

ahhh~!! YOSHIMI~THANK YOUUU~!

I'm extremely relieved that it is not true!^^

Miyavifan 02-06-2009 04:56 PM

I'm extremely relieved too.

@ asian

I wouldn't be surprised either, if he were.

YoshimiTheEthereal 02-07-2009 03:45 AM

You are all very welcome! It was my pleasure, really! :vsign:

Someday . . . he will marry ME! Lalalalalalalaaaaaaaaa!!!!! :pompoms:

Does anyone have any pics from the Versailles 2009 calendar? Someone on that other forum site in the Versailles section had them, but you had to be their LiveJournal buddy to see them. I really want to see them badly! I missed out on getting it! Just like last year's! :crykitty:

Miyavifan 02-07-2009 03:48 AM

haha. I bet. :)

I didn't even know about it. There's no copies available already?

AsianAtHeart 02-07-2009 05:59 AM

There's already a 2009 calender?!

.................

Crap, I already have my Chinese calender marked with my semester schedules and everything >< But if I could get it, it would go perfect with my Versailles poster hanging above it.

YoshimiTheEthereal 02-07-2009 06:31 AM

Yeah, you had to order it in November in order to get it. I just found out about it yesterday. I read it is 12 pages: 2 pics of each member, one of a facial and one of half of their body, and 2 pics of the group. The pics are supposed to be of them in their Prince outfits. Also, the calendar is about 2 feet long and you have to rip the pages out in order to turn the pages.

Apparently, you had to order it through this site: MUKUNOKI JP [ORDER]

Also, can anyone help me find where this came from? Someone from another site had this in their signature and told me they summarized it and got it from the A-Kon interview from the revenant choir: a Versailles fansite , but I can't find it. :

What is the best quality of the band member sitting to your right?
Kamijo: *tells Teru to stand up and points to his bare stomach*
girls: *shirek and clap*
Teru: *sits down embarassed*

I also found this on JAMEworld and thought it was funny:

Fast food: Love it or hate it?

Versailles: Fast food? (Everyone looks at HIZAKI)
HIZAKI: Kentucky Fried Chicken! KFC!

Miyavifan 02-07-2009 06:51 PM

Bummer. and that's a not very good way to do a calendar.


haha. poor Teru.

KFC!!!

I wish I knew where it came from. I'm sorry.

AsianAtHeart 02-07-2009 11:33 PM

KFC? Blech ><

You mean you can't find the interview it's in? I thought the whole thing was hilarious.

Kamijo: "Of course women scream for me."

Yes....yes we do.
