Its so close-minded and a bit ridiculous
But that may also be why many vke band tone down their image a lot when going more mainstream. But some have an issue of lacking in musical quality when going major. I had this problem with Ayabie. And Alice Nine
But I honestly don't understand vkei hate or so much disrespect for them. As they are talented artists. Some of which with unique voices. And artists who can write incredible amazing lyrics.
Though I understand some people are superficial enough to judge totally on image. I just feel bad cuz by the way they dress they get a bad name.
Vkei like any other genre is about more than what they dress. Some people always say ayu is just known for her style which fans just pay a lot of attention to also. But in the end of the day ayu fans are fans of her music
