We all know that the world of J-rock is a very small one. There seem to be three powers in charge (Kamijo, Kisaki, and Mana). These three people seem to have their fingers in everything (especially Kisaki).

This game was created to see how many ways you can connect Mana to certain bands or even people.

This game works just like Five Degrees to Kevin Bacon, meaning, you connect the bands Mana has been in or the people who have been in Mana's bands to other bands or people to a goal person or band. Or you can even loop it back to Mana for the most fun!! You can take as many degrees as you like! Let's make interesting ones to share with everyone ^.^

You can connect by using:
Pts{5}Mana's bands
Pts{5}Mana's production company (Midi:Nette)
Pts{4}Bands
Pts{3}Band members
Pts{2}Band producers
Pts{2}Same production companies/labels
Pts{2}People/bands associated with the label
Pts{2}Label managers (like Kisaki and Kamijo both lord over labels)
Pts{1}Shows (however loose this is...like if they were a guest on a show where in the same show -like 12-01-07's Domoto Brothers' show or something- had the person you use to connect)
Pts{1}Known friendships (like Mana and Kamijo)
Pts{2}Movies they were in
Pts{1}Shared lives (like Lareine performing in a Dis Inferno when Schwarz Stein was in the same live)
Pts{1}Shared photoshoots (but not shared mag, like Mana was in the same Fool's Mate edition to Miyavi)
Pts{2}Same PV director/producer
Pts{10}Mana Loop x1
Pts{20}Mana Loop x2
Pts{30}Mana Loop x3
Pts{+10}Mana Loop x4 to --

If someone uses a connection way that makes sense that I have not listed, I will list it.

You should post the connection ways for clarity under your initial game entry.

I post example:

I'm going to connect the Candy Spooky Theater to Mana right now!

Mana-Moi dix Mois--> Seth-Moi dix Mois--> Seth was Seiji ex. Amadeus--> Nene-ex. Amadeus--> Nene- ex. Art Marju Duchain--> Yuzuru-ex. Art Marju Duchain--> Yuzuru is Zull ex. Candy Spooky Theater
(This one is a Mana Loop of extra points, because Mana inspired the creation of Art Marju Duchain and there is a rumor that he was a guest guitarist for them).

Mana- Mana's band--> Seth in Mana's band--> Seth in another band--> Nene in the band Seth was in--> Nene in another band (band that Mana inspired=Mana Loop)--> Yuzuru in the band Nene was in--> Yuzuru is Zull ex. Candy Spooky Theater

Point listing:
{0 (starter)}-{5}-->{5}-->{4}-->{4}-->{10}-->{4}-->{0 (goal)}=32 pts


I swear, one time, when I was playing this game...I connected Mana to Leonardo Dicaprio by accident XD

As for verification, please verify and research your connections before posting. Its very much appreciated if you post all your research with your post (under the connection specification part of your post). If something is common knowledge (like Mana was in Girl'e) then you can say "common knowledge" for that portion. If you post little pics of verification, that's great (it makes it even more fun). If you have a dispute with someone's connections or a correction, pm them and dispute over pm's. This thread is not for that.

I will of course check your connections for my verification seal. I will put a seal on any post that has been verified. If you have a huge dispute with a connection, please pm me.

If you want to comment on a cool connection, feel free to do so ^.^

There are a few sites where making connections are easy like Visual Kei Wikipedia and this other site I know...I will post helpful links. If you found all of your info (or were playing and found something) on a site posted in the first post, just say "gotten with Link # --".

The top 5 people with the most points will be in a list.

Different ways to connect on the provided list of connections will get different numbers of points. Meaning, if you have a long-a** non-obvious connection, you may become #1. Mana Loops will get large bonus points and 2xMana Loops and higher will get even more bonus!! If you list a band that Mana was/is associated with (like Moi dix Mois), you get higher points than a band he is not associated with. Points are called "Pts". Phrasing is very very important. If you don't phrase correctly you may not be awarded the points you would have gotten if it was phrased differently. You may NOT go back and edit connections!

If you totally pwned the game (get to #1) you will receive a banner-badge saying so that you can put in your sig and/or your profile if you like.

You are encouraged to post interesting connections just for fun or if they are exciting, even if you know you won't win. This is for the benefit of the community.

You can even request connections. Such as this (and I'm actually really asking): "Can someone connect Mana to An Cafe??"

Now isn't this a fun game ^.^?

Is that right, Valkyrie? If so, I'll begin awarding you points.

I wanna randomly give this a try XD though i don't know if i'll do it right.

kaya and hora-> Rudolf Steiner-> turned into schwars stein because of midi-nette-> midi-nette is owned by mana-> Schwars stein has appeared in the before shows of moi dix mois-> moi dix mois=mana->Kaya preformed in Scherzo along with kamijo and juka-> Kamijo was in lareine who were rodies with Malice mizer in their indies era-> malice mizer=Mana-> Juka was with mana in Moi dix mois ->Juka was with xover(they recently disbanded>.<)-> Juka was with Hizaki in Hizaki grace project-> juka then went into a solo carreer->juka's solo career had Kamijo's record label (artist corner)->versailles' record label is artist corner->hizaki is in versailles->teru is in versailles->jasmine you (who recently passed, r.i.p) was in versailles->yuki is also in versailles-> kamijo=versailles-> kamijo=Gackt's friend(they also had a small interview like thing where they cought up on old times like in the boat ride where they played a game against malice mizer and whoever lost had to run around the boat naked, Lareine lost and malice mizer ran after their band to take their clothes off)-> gackt used to be in malice mizer-> gackt was in the same band as mana-> malice mizer=midi-nette->kanon wakeshima=midi-nette-> mana writes all of the music for kanon wakeshima.
