Have you ever wondered where to buy Visual Kei goods in Japan or even Visual Kei adjacent places to go to? After some time I had finally put together a list of places I've often heard of or frequently shopped at that I highly recommend ψ(`∇´)ψ

Osaka

Pure Sound

Bunken Rock Sound - located near Jimbocho Station
Cross Cat - located (somewhat) near Kameari Station
Tower Records - TR is a chain so I included their list of stores in Japan
Five Stars - Located near Osu Kannon Station in Nagoya
Restaurants/bars
Rock Bar Midian - Owned by Fu-ki from Blood
Vampire Cafe - Owned by Vampire Rose
Vegeneko - Owned by Seth from Moi Dix Mois
Bar Fukuro - Owned by Yoshiatsu from Fukuro
Shot Bar Mao - Not sure if this is owned by any particular bandmen but it features a lot of VK goods
Instrument stores
ESP Museum
BIG BOSS
There's a lot more affiliated stores but these are the most popular, I regularly add to my google maps to readily find places, I've also found plenty of CDs at Book Off, Wonder Goo (all the way in Gunma lol), Mandarake and even Surugaya so keep an eye out in second hand stores!
