This is about anikura (アニクラ) which is a portmanteau of the loan words anison (アニソン) and club (クラブ). Interestingly enough, anison itself is a portmanteau of anime (アニメ) and song (ソング) which refers to musical tracks used in various anime series and is often misspelled by adding a "g" at the end since bawka gaijins can't into nippongo properly. Regardless, anikura refers to the use of "anison" related music in a "club setting" hence the genre's name. Still confused? Lurk moar.One of the more notable anikura is Akihabara MOGRA (MOGRA for short) which has been associated with this imageboard for well over a decade. However, just limiting yourself to one venue would be a disservice since there are other livehouses and even devoted anison groups who help contribute to anikura all over Japan and the world! For those who wish to explore the anikura scene in Japan, otaku-bar.com would be a great place to start your journey.Although the primary source of anikura comes from venues in Japan, there are also shows and events held online. As previously mentioned: MOGRA is the most well known anikura which also streams a lot of their events online via Twitch. However, there are also individuals associated with MOGRA who stream online and one of them is the President of MOGRA: D-YAMA, who goes by the channel name of 'choroyama' on Twitch. MOGRA can be used as the base on discovering other venues and even DJs who also stream online.Since online streaming is the play, there are international anikura which primarily stream online and also hold physical events when available. One of the anikura group that can trace their origin to this very imageboard would be Anison Hijack which has been streaming consistently every two weeks on the Twitch platform. Obviously, there are many international anikura online and hopefully you can check them out!The following is a sample list of various anikura that stream online via Twitch.JP clubs:mogratsukiyume_jp (Tsukiakari Yumeterasu [Moonlit Dreams] in Kawasaki)akibaraizeen / akibaraizeen2f (Anison DJ Bar Raizeen)a_alchemi (Akihabara Alchemist)r_alchemi (Ryogoku Alchemy)soundlabmole (club mole in hokkaido)musicbarbk (aka im@s themed bar in osaka)vocabuki (vocaloid focused club)iv_akihabaraanthem_akibasabaco_wasedaNowVOCALOIDingJP DJs:choroyamadjsaayaohashi_discoshan_shizuaka_tnk2 (shiono takuya)djshimamuraloligabbakillherdjInternational anikura:AnisonHijackseriesai_musicneonyapartytheroundwavecrusheranicloverclubuntz_timetuneintokyoanimeltupotacos_partyohr_partyanisongpartyotagrooveCheers_39extended channel list editionPrevious thread >>50984225

>>51067790it can have the flavor without the sugar
>>51054494>>51051449I made a script that 24/7 records mogra streams that i just have running on my laptop, and then names + re-encodes them so they're under 500mb so I can upload them to a discord server I just use for cataloging, although im unsure if anyone would be interested in this at all (Although I do usually cut the last hour or so so it can fit in the size limits for upload)
>>51069091I do try to archive some of the weekday events, but Haven't been downloading anything lately.

>>51085957It's a unique feeling to be subjected to an unskippable 30 second minions ad just to check out what's playing. I see Suzubrah is jamming.
Wait anons, tomorrow is Matrix.
>>51085957are they going to play actual anison and not whatever weird shitty non-anison noise they seem to be playing more often than not lately>?
>>51086024Been listening to current DJ. He's played 50% kind of memes and 50% anime music. Some man with a mission mix is clearly playing now.
>>51086034I misread it as anisonhajack at firstcurrent dj is fine yeah
