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_akibamilularisabaco_wasedahyplace_nagoyaJP events:NowVOCALOIDingvocaloid_twilightamendahaCrossNotesOfficialJP DJs:choroyamadjsaayaohashi_discoshan_shizuaka_tnk2 (shiono takuya)djshimamuraloligabbakillherdjosssssaInternational anikura:AnisonHijackseriesai_musicneonyapartytheroundwavecrusheranicloverclubuntz_timetuneintokyoanimeltupotacos_partyohr_partyanisongpartyotagrooveCheers_39AniMiraiClubVocaloid Hijack editionPrevious thread >>51227939

This event celebrates the release of “The State of Skyward” by HIROSHI WATANABE, created in conjunction with a pop-up event commemorating the 20th anniversary of the anime series “Eureka Seven.” HIROSHI WATANABE has contributed several works to the “Eureka Seven” series, including “Get it by your hands HI-EVO MIX” and “The Strength in Life.” He also worked on the remastering and 5.1-channel surround production of “Tiger Track,” continuing his involvement with the series’ music over the years. “The State of Skyward” is a new original track created to commemorate the 20th anniversary of “Eureka Seven.” The release features two remixes by KEN ISHII and AcidGelge, and is produced by Akihabara Heavy Industry Inc. The night will feature DJ and live performances by HIROSHI WATANABE, KEN ISHII, AcidGelge, ISHII, and Takayuki Kamiya, accompanied by VJ performances from Arima Tomoyuki, akirafukuoka, and KAZUMiX. The artists involved in “The State of Skyward” will come together at MOGRA to present the music born from this 20th anniversary project in a club setting.DJ & Live:23:00-24:00 @takauke24:00-01:15 @shiroas01:15-03:15 @K_Ishii_70Drums03:15-04:00 @909st (live)04:00-06:00 @hw_aka_kaito VJ:23:00-01:15 @KAZUMiX01:15-03:15 @akirafukuoka03:15-04:00 @KAZUMiX04:00-06:00 @tatsdesign

あわあに！〜うぃず・あわー・あにめ！〜 @ MOGRA
It is an all-genre party where DJs play "DJs who want to do now" while focusing on animation, and mixes genres and play styles. DJs will give you three "favorite anime, anime you want to know now", and each will have you put more than one related song (including characterson, theatrical accompaniment, and remixed ones OK). Nothing else in particular regulation! Enjoy a party that you don't know what will pop out!■ Favorite Anime▼bashomono / Log Horizon / Onegai AiPri▼hueruYuuki Yuuna is a Hero / Lapis Re:LiGHTs / Magical Girl Raising Project▼りゅうHarmony of Mille-Feuille / Wistoria: Wand and Sword / Sorairo Utility▼踊る理由。Hidamari Sketch / Taishō Baseball Girls / Grow Up Show: Sunflower Circus▼バイブRe:Stage!

It's a monday, stop partying so much
>>51273006Japan has a day off for Autumnal Equinox Day, so they can party all night tonight.
ゆいてっく @ tsukiyume_jpLet's pass on the anime and music we've cultivated with everyone from The University of Electro-Communications to the next generation!
月曜日から飲みマンデイ @ vocabukiI put up some temporary audio streams for tonight:https://dogra2.bento.moe/mogra.mp3https://dogra2.bento.moe/iv_akihabara.mp3https://dogra2.bento.moe/tsukiyume_jp.mp3https://dogra2.bento.moe/vocabuki.mp3
I'm up to date on my Sept archive again. Also I have mp4 versions and extra events in dogra2 (but assume that everything in there is temporary).
>>51274117Thanks anon, appreciate you. Had an opportunity to listen to 9/11's mogra and should have brought another event. I need to think about grabbing the audio only now too.

>>51275142sure is nice for there to be weekday mogra events that I can actually listed to while wageslaving

Anyone at Boukawa? It's raining
>>51285470I'll be hauling my ass over there by 14:30. Excited to see TORIENA
Oh neat, there's a stream for Boukawa. Have an mp3 stream of the main stage for those who can't make it: https://dogra2.bento.moe/boukawa.mp3

bass music x otomad collaboration with release party at mogra, happening in 2 months, very interesting https://youtu.be/KSjVKZwAlXo
>>51287578Started off interesting but then turned into the hijack stuff that anons tend to complain about. I would have liked it better if it had a consistent deep bass beat instead of the wubs.
Speaking of Hijack, Ladies Night Out Vol. IV @ anisonhijack
BOUKAWA DAY 2I have my audio stream again as well.
>>51287962How was day 1?
>>51287981Very violently cute. Of course I wasn't there in person, but I liked it. But I'm more looking forward to day 2, and more of the stuff that's not streamed (hoping for another camrip of Aiobahn's set). Check out the vod.
>>51288027Current DJ is making me want to drink.
Is there a site or something that aggregates DJ events around Japan to look for.
>>51288065Most events seem to use Twitter to advertise (with TwiPla to RSVP), but I notice some venues starting to use some other sites like nightlifetokyo (I see some MOGRA events listed here: https://nightlifetokyo.com/en/tokyo/venues/mogra )
>>51288077Is that a giant ice block filled with jager?
>>51288077Seems like it would be a neat idea to just have some website even if vibecoded to aggregate these things into like a single calendar
>>51288083Yes
>>51288027I'm planning on recording, I won't upload until at least tomorrow though because I'm going to the after party. It's just my phone so don't expect anything that good.
>>51285620>>51286055>tune in>FLY AWAYIt's nice when you don't even have to check the lineup to identify the DJI hope this is being recorded
>>51288319TeddyLoid's set is way too fire, using all his staple songs and all the hype songs AND Matsuken Samba is cheating
>>51288336Fuck, I missed Samba? I REALLY hope this was recorded
Could use more bass in the mix, honestly
Aiobahn's set was so good surprise in it made me cry
>>51288356Said surprise https://x.com/sooopiyo/status/2104132145887449220
Has YUC'e made any new songs in the past five years?
>>51288412https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EYYMdMfX_HMthis apparently came out 2 months ago. I didn't know about it/hear it until her set during the anniversary tho.she's done a few other ones and a random 4 track EP over the last two years but the only ones I really paid much attention to was あいまいハートスパイス and nyandemic.
>>51288356Aiobahns set was goatedWas not expecting an actual anikura set lolHeero Yuy went hard too, sucks stage 3 had no subs
vods in dogra2eVF7fGpCDjybVbJB
>>51289205Arrigato anon
>>51289205Are the vods only for the main stage?Also thanks anon
>>51289382all official streaming info only refers to floor 1 so for the rest we'll likely have to rely on video recordings. they're already starting to appear on bilibili and yt, for example:partial aiobahn +81: bilibili BV1K9ah6JEzMmoe shop: yt k6zPYxiH33Mafterparty ending: yt Swlu3K2hUGY>>51289205thank youuu
PSA: next years dokomi will feature two days of j-rave again..
>>51290687>moe shop>second song stardustI was wondering how that song would go down with a Japanese crowd and turns out great.
>>51290687I have a full aiobahn recording I'll get to tonight,after party simply kicked my ass today.
I'm convinced the organizer put his favorite acts on second stage, he kept showing up there and I only ever saw him on the main stage for the finales.
>>51286050second day of this starting now @ ut_synthesized_voiceit's another student DJ event like the recent cross notes / summer notes thing
>>51291374>25min setsFor what purpose? Enjoy 4 songs bros
