About

syunikiss.org was purchased in July 2008 and was originally supposed to be a collective of my Japanese music fanlistings and fansites as part of my main domain, orenjipan.com. In January 2009, while restructuring my websites, I decided to use the domain as a place to write about Japanese music. Or, knowing me, a place to ramble about it. I do still use the domain for the original purpose — you can find out more about the sites I run in the network section.

The name “Syunikiss” comes from the Malice Mizer song “Syunikiss 〜二度目の哀悼〜” ( “Syunikiss 〜nidome no aitou〜” – “nidome no aitou” means “second mourning”), which is my favorite song of all time. I have no idea what the word means, though.

The current theme was made by me and features a picture I took of the sky. The “return to the sky” tagline comes from the lyrics to “Syunikiss 〜二度目の哀悼〜.”

If you have any questions, feel free to contact me.

About the author

Hi, I’m Larissa, and Japanese music has been a huge part of my life for several years now. I got into it through anime (which I’d watch on TV when I was a kid), and fell almost instantly in love with J-Rock when I discovered it (and later, J-Pop). While there are quite a few artists I couldn’t imagine not listening to, I also love discovering new ones as I learn more about music. Hopefully this blog will help me with that!
