Looks like he also runs a production company, which has a little bio for him if you’d like to know more.

He’s had a lot of video game soundtrack credits lately too.

Is Gackt one of the most successful visual kei musicians of all time? I would sure like to think so. Acting credits, modeling credits, voice over credits, and music! Certainly the apex of what visual kei can be if you put your all into it.

I wish he had more hard rock tunes. Albums like Crescent would be so good if it was a smidge heavier, but I still love it!

Crescent is excellent, my favorite album of Gackt. I love so much Mars too.

Yeah, it’s hard to disagree. The dude is in the cover of Metal Gear Solid 2, you know. Also they put his likeness in Crisis Core. So many film roles too.

Not just his likeness. Gackt was active in the shaping of Genesis, who is pretty much Gackt as a FFVII character.

@Kumanosuke & @blacktooth  
Oh thanks for the info! Was not a fan of his vocals (nor the band, it would seam). But he seams to be doing pretty well, that’s cool.

It looks like the Funtime Productions and YAY is pretty much the same thing? One being the actual company (Funtime) and the other being the unit behind the company (YAY) 🤔 (IG links aren’t opening for me for whatever reason).

Let’s dilly-dally no longer and jump to the question we’re all dying to have answered:

Did Gackt’s nosejob change his singing voice?

I stumbled upon a photo book from the yellow fried CHICKENz world tour and tbh I remember shit from the concert itselft but seeing the photo book with the members and gackt posing with a doll (or is that an actual person photoshopped to look like a doll?) in sex positions (fully clothed, tho)… I am not so surprised anymore by the sex talk MCs.

I warned you:

OMG I also rediscovered that one a few weeks ago. I just put it on Gackt being Gackt and put it back in the closet but now I wonder if the Yellow Fried Chikenz was especially bad for this type of stuff. Even accounting for Gackt it seems a bit extreme 😃

A day in the life of a 16 yo gyaru from a month ago. She has a poster of Gackt in her room 🙌

I’d rather see Gackt doing these commercials than doing gym and poker. This is fun.

Because he is Gackt 🤭 He also hasn’t eaten noodles in 15 years or something so it is perfectly possible he is not up to date on the proper technique to hold a pack of seasoning 🤷‍♀️

Gackt apparently had a fun time in the snow yesterday and thought it’s good to tweet in that state:

[https://x.com/GACKT/status/1869754808481267948](https://x.com/GACKT/status/1869754808481267948)

_"From December 12th, the “use” of marijuana will also become a crime._

_Japan is moving in a different direction from the United States. However, this strengthening of the law only clarifies Japan’s rules further, saying “what is prohibited is prohibited.”_

_Different countries have different rules and different common sense._  
_For example, the Japanese etiquette of “holding a bowl while eating” is considered “absurd” in many foreign countries._  
_Conversely, it is natural that what is permitted overseas is not permitted in Japan._

_In the end, no matter where you are, the important thing is to behave with respect for the rules and etiquette of the country._  
_If you want to do something that is “not permitted in Japan,” just live in a country where it is OK._  
_It’s a simple thing that even a child can understand: “Don’t do what you shouldn’t do.”_

_However, the reality is that many Japanese people do not know the common sense of the world, and foreigners often do not understand the common sense of Japan._  
_That is why it is necessary to prepare guidelines for both sides._  
_If the guidelines are vague, it will only cause confusion and increase problems._

_One option may be to close the country off and seek a way to survive on its own._  
_Of course, in this day and age, that’s nearly impossible._

_By the way, I’m in favor of national isolation. What about you?"_

Don’t care about his takes on cannabis, but the “By the way” really made me throw up in my mouth a little. He used the word 鎖国 which also refers to the time during the Edo period where Japan was ISOLATED isolated.

Not surprised given his other worthless opinions he shared with us over the time, but definitely a very hot take coming from a Japanese living in Malaysia.

He really doesn’t make it easy to be his fan, does he 🥲

Coming from the man who used to talk about how there should be an asian union to rival the EU, this is a pretty surprising take. Goddammit Gackt 🥲

Gackt is a businessman first and foremost. Not a world leader. So for me it’s easy to dismiss what he says regarding global affairs. Even if he said the opposite, I wouldn’t dwell on it
