Mana sama no Sekai!

Journal Entry: Tue May 8, 2012, 3:05 AM
Mana sama no Sekai!

The imaginative dark and elegant world that Mana sama creates with his music and clothing line is where I dream to dwell. To be surrounded by everything of Mana's!!

I love to collect and have anything to do with Mana, and I love to share any knowledge with other fans that I gather or that I get from others. So I am sharing today various links that other fans may not have or know about.

First and foremost, Mana sama's blog!
Monologue+Garden:

While it is in Japanese, there is an English version of Mana's blog hosted by a fan named Sarah, who also runs mana-sama.net. She usually has translations within hours of his posts:
Mana's Aesthetics:

I also recommend her blog, Monologue+Sancutary as she posts a lot of random bits of very interesting info pertaining to Mana sama.

For fans in Mon+Amour, Mana's official fan club, it is well known that M+A shut down a few months ago. However, his Madoushou booklets (special little 'magazines' for M+A members) have now been digitally put up! At least the first issue. Each issue will be 500 yen so you need a credit card. Because they are digital you should be able to pop them into a translator.

Mana's clothing brand Moi meme Moitie offers Elegant Gothic Lolita for women and Elegant Gothic Aristocrat for men. All of the gothic dresses I wear in my gallery are Moitie!
Moitie Online Shop:

It is possible to do international orders for Moitie items from CDJapan too!

Most important, the Moi dix Mois website!

Mana's Recond Label site, Midi:Nette (when I ordered a package from here, I read the katakana as "Midnight" which I thought interesting!) From here you can buy Count Yu~ki's jewelry too!!

Lastly, for those who have attended Mana's lives, you will surely love this.
This is the CD Mana always plays before his lives while fans are waiting for him :)  After a long time searching I finally found it!

Here you can enjoy one of the songs on YouTube. The poster seems to have most of the album up! The five songs I know Mana plays for sure from this album are: Notte, Profondo Rosso, Tenebre, Jennifer, Suspiria.

Everything said should be true, but not everything true should be said.

Hello. I commented on your Mana-sama photo and added a comment concerning why you were in Japan. If you don't mind, I felt is was more appropriate to comment on your work on your personal page rather than your (beautiful, wonderful) photo of Mana-sama. If you don't mind me asking, what do you do for work in Japan? I am just starting out in this giant world and I really want to know what type of work can get me to Japan.

Actually, haha, I came here by a very good "roll of the dice", so to speak. I'm in the US Navy and got stationed here, and have just kept requesting to stay... so I'm in my 4th year here. Since the military is a gamble for where you'd go, I guess it's not for everyone LOL. But it's an easy and free way to get here, and you make a lot of money XD

thank you very much for replying! My grandparents (air force) wanted me to join the Navy very badly, but as you said, it's not for everyone. Im not sure they'd want me even if i could get past my training, lol, im sort of a "fall over helplessly" kind of person haha. Literally, I can't play tag with kids. Thank you again so much. I hope you get to stay as long as you like; glad to hear someone living in Japan who likes it so much. I hear a lot of foreigners complain constantly and it's sort of out-putting. Thank you again.

Hi, I realise this has nothing to do with deviantart, but in this forum ([link]) you mentioned that red is the colour of children and innocence. I'm doing a project on geisha and just wondered where that information is from. No worries if this is too wierd an ask. Thanks :)
