When Yukiro has a bottle of Dracula’s Blood in his hands… you know it’s about time to party!

We decided against the red liquor (blood is best consumed fresh, from the neck of young virgin emo boys). Instead, we picked from the large selection of absinthe.

Love Mistress Maya’s tights, marked with a Gothic decal.

First, we had sushi and sake at Hibari, the cheap conveyor sushi parlor in Kabuki-Cho. We’re always there in extreme outfits, chewing raw fish next to sleepy host boys (remember this and this post?)

Now, I must be a little vague about what came next. We congregated in someone’s hotel room — I can’t say who. But I can tell you that the absinthe flowed.

The spooky guests included Ako (designer of punk brand Blablahospital), Alex the magician, Maya the Midnight Mess mistress, and Luke of crunk-step Chaos Royale.

Per Heimly showed us his photos of black metal band Dimmur Borgir, and bloody naked girls.

But the most frightening image of all… is the floppy disk that Yukiro was forced to use for a school project!

Vogue, vogue.

More guests showed up, fresh from 2-choome (the Shinjuku gay club district). Things got progressively wilder. When Maya’s in a good mood, she begins to torture boys…

We can’t show you everything that happened, but trust me: this lad got some Discipline and Punishment!

Oh, the scandal that goes on behind closed doors… the secrets that never make it onto this blog!

In J-news…

♪ The Visual Kei band break-ups continue. UnsraW (above) has parted ways after vocalist Yuuki left the group. Danger Gang’s drummer Rei and bassist Thera have also announced they are leaving the band. Hopefully Danger Gang will keep going despite the departures.

♪ My friend Mai Sassy Girl has fab coverage of Asia Girl’s Explosion, the Tokyo Girls Collection fashion and music event featuring Yoshiki, Heath, Marilyn Manson and more.

♪ Yahoo recently published an article about X Japan, with a few errors. I learned Yoshiki goes grocery shopping in public!
