Anyone know any good site to download 80's albums in good quality? Only found some chink site but most of the good stuff is behind payed password to open rar file
I was thinking about importing some vinyls and ripping them but some of them are quite expensive so I may do that but when I go to Japan
I'm now mostly listening Minako Honda and Chiemi Manabe

jpop80ss, they've got akina's extensive discog
Fushigi is one of my favorite albums from Akina. So damn good
These girls are not only my favorite 80's idols, they're the group that got me into j-pop and idols in general. If you haven't checked their stuff out, you totally should.
They music does a better job of sounding like 80's pop than most actual western 80's pop groups. In fact they did a couple covers of western 80's hits and sounded amazing

Thanks, I will. They're beautiful!
i'm a sucker for engrish, so akina's Cross My Palm album is great. lol
I highly recommend Chisato Moritaka. She's the bridge between the late stages of The Japanese Idol Golden Age and the rise of J-Pop Divas.

Definitely good stuff from her

As much as I love Akina and pratically every other idol from the 80s I'm more of a Seiko Matsuda person
>>16267919
Chisato is a waifu.

She looks better now than she's ever looked, and that's saying something.

akina is god
Speaking of Nakamori Akina, there is this new manga called Slow Motion wo Mou Ichido about two high school students who love the 80s but can't talk to anyone about it because they don't to be made fun of. I bought the first volume but haven't had the time to read past the first half of chapter 1, so I can't say if its any good or not, but it should be an interesting read at the very least. There also seems to be a scanlation of the first chapter out there, so why not give it a shot?

thanks for the heads up anon
>>16296638
I've been desiring something like this for a long time. Just ordered both volumes to support it. Too bad I don't know moonrunes yet, but it's more motivation anyway.
>>16296638
I really dig the art style.
>>16299197
I had one of those... didn't realize it was the first water toy. I am having a hard time finding scans of this, anyone know where to go?
>>16296638
this is on the ball so far. hope the author doesn't abandon the 80s references too hard.
Does she count?
>>16301645
kissmanga have the chapter translated
>"Oh boy I've been waiting for one of these threads to pop up."
>it's full of Akina fags.
God damn it.
I'm part of a facebook group and it's all SEAs, chinks, and white guys obsessing over Akina and Seiko.
All day everyday.

>about two high school students who love the 80s but can't talk to anyone about it because they don't [want] to be made fun of.
Just like real life.
>>16303716
talk about other 80's idols then, cryfag
>>16303724
The 80s has been cool with normies for years now though
>>16303737
I guess. But it's hard to find someone who loves 80s jpop idols as much as I do in Washington.
>>16303950
This.
And you have to hope they aren't creepy collectors types.
I'd like to meet someone who appreciates the music of that era as well. Not just cute girls.
taeko onuki french worship period 80s releases are beautiful
