Hi everyone! Another Argentinian here  [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]  Kind of new to Scandal, but already mesmerized by them!

I discovered the band during the pandemic when by chance "Take me out" and "AMDKJ" appeared in my suggestions... a few days later my on repeat list was at least half Scandal  [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.] 

In terms of Japanese bands, I'm a huge fan of Band-Maid [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.] (try to imagine that as a pigeon hahaha) and also listen a lot of Chiaki Sato, Lie and a Chameleon, Polkadot Stingray... listening a lot of Lucie,Too these days.

Former only heavy/symphonic metal, hardcore punk rock kind of guy, now one of the firsts to reserve my Cluppo single right after the announcement [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]  

Like probably a lot of you, I'm waiting for Japan to accept tourists again  [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]  would not be easy to catch all the live shows I want in one go, but will do my best to get a few in the mix  [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.] 

Nice to meet you all! And a huuuuuuuuuge thank you for all the info and translations you post! Really appreciated!!

Hello San, welcome to SH!

As well as Scandal I also like Band-Maid, LiSA, The Peggies, Silent Siren and RADWIMPS I could go on, but I won't LOL! I was more of a rock/punk/grunge guy but Japan has opened me up to other genres/bands that I probably wouldn't give the time of day too if they were from the west.

Do you have a favourite Scandal song?

Hi San,

Welcome to SH

I am an English fan of Japanese music and a huge Japanese idol fan ( groups like AKB48 )

Hope you have fun ere.

hahaha i love how some of us that would normally scoff at the word "pop" when it comes to music are made weak by the powers of Kobato-sensei when she puts out a new jam. 

welcome, san!

Welcome! I don't listen to them much nowadays, but Polkadot and Uso to Chameleon used to be in my top 5 favourites some years ago 

Hello San and welcome to SH, I'm also a fan of both Band-maid and Polkadot Stingray(I find their music video quite funny)


I hoping as well Japan will open up to world again for I am booked to go next March.

Thank you all for your welcome messages!  [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]

I think I have to say take me out. Not only they look like having fun everytime they play it, but it also makes me want to dance hahaha Tonight, AMDKJ and Kagerou are really close

I will probably buy any kind of record she does, yes [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]  I'm not in the fan level "buying a flappy pigeon" yet, but not so far either  [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]

Hello and welcome San!
Nice to meet you!
I'm a huge fan of Band-Maid too and was going to their announced live in Budokan, which was later canceled. 
You are right, many of us are looking forward to seeing live performances again.

Hi San,
It's nice to meet not only a Scandal, but also a Band-Maid fan!
I like Lucie, Too as well- some people think it's too soft, but what do they know ;-)
I'm still a metalhead, but I just love first Cluppo single! That's the power of Kobato-san! Long time ago I discovered that ,,labels" and so-called genres mean nothing in music. A good song is a good song :-)

Hello San! Welcome to SH! Glad you found us. I'm Arthur from Manila, Philippines, a big fan of SCANDAL since 2014. I'm one of the few guys here who prefer kayokyoku, city pop, and jazz fusion over j-rock and visual kei. 

About your liking with Cluppo aka Miku Kobato, we have the same taste!

Just so you know there was no wrong answer, lol 

Take me Out is one of my favourites, like you say they always look like they're having so much fun when playing it, Masterpiece and Love Survive are also up there for me and I've currently got a liking for Pinheel Surfer.
