I requested Drop the movie and magnus said they will be looking into it. Horray for magnus!!! I am looking forward to Hiro and Hiroki...

@sake, Lree... I started educating myself on Gackt. and found this really cute video of him on a date with a 13 year old. I couldn't stop laughing.
He is 461 years old? I could live with that. He is so funny! Trying to keep a
straight face. How tall is he? I know he celebrated his birthday last July 4th but what year was he born?

He is such a sweetheart! Where can I watch Moonchild? I am so curious!

I am currently into Kiyoharu who sings the theme song for The Wallflower a manga and series I really love. Blew my entire allowance on copies of the manga.



@ acid don't you just love PRIDE. Kimura who looked so arrogant and
young then...now everytime I hear the word "Maybe" I think about PRIDE.

My thanks to you guys for introducing me to Gackt, who I assume is not a
cat (???). If you guys have him locked up somewhere can you ask him
if why he changes eye color at will?

Ok...Im so going to sound like a stalker....but oh well. I know the answers to everyone of those gackt questions...:P

Eye Color:

~He does this for a few reasons. One is...it makes him look cool. simple.lol. Second he is light sensitive and hate's bright lights. He hasnt said this, f it's due to an eye problem I wouldn't be surprised because most muscians have eye problems. Elvis had bad catterax (sp). when he died because of the lights on stage and because presperation would dripped into his eyes on stage as well. But he has never said anything except that he hates bright lighting.

~ Many can speculate, but he's about my age. How do I know? Because of about the time he came on the scene he was in his early to mid 20's when he first became a name with Malice mizer. He was about 28-30 when he made moon child 8 and half years ago. So he's about 35-37 years old. He doesnt release it because he's a dork....whatvere, I luv him....but he's weird.

~400+ years old. LOL. Gackt had a vampire phase where he was nuts about them, in fact he wrote and help make the moon child movie. He wrote it with Hyde in mind and it's rumor that Hyde help write the script. The also did some of the music together in movie....of course. On the Jrockers sight under one of the Gackt threads, there is the book Confessions that he wrote about himself.....75% of it is pure imagination, and some of it is true, but only half the story. But either way it makes an interesting read. Also, on the vampire thing, in the Gackt 101 video thread the last interview I posted with an earlier HeyX3 interview that took place about 2001 roughly....he talks about his sexuality...at length, and also the vampire/light thing.

~Moon Child is on DC, look under Japanese Movies. I bought the DVD after watching it.

~ He's about 6 foot tall even and weighs about 140 pounds. none of it of which is fat. lol....that's just wrong in my book. His blood type is A.

~His parents debunk the claim he makes that he sees dead people. No lie...he tells a story about how he can sense and sometimes see ghosts. When he was a kid he had a stomach problem in which he was hospitalized in the terminal children's ward. Some of the friends he made died while he was in there, and that experience affected him. After that the stories get a little foggy because he claims that the hospital ward was located in the same hospital as the Psychatric hospital and denied claims he was admitted because of his his claims of seeing dead people which was also rumored to have actually happened when he had a near death experience and nearly drowned.

~ Either way he now refuses to have children because he fears of passing his "problems" on to his children. he said he has no plans in getting married...ever....but he's not totally closed to it. He has already married and divorced once to a Kroean woman who divorced him because she couldnt handle his fans.

Also I saw that video, it is funny....the little kid was great!

LOL.

sake, haha you dont sound like a stalker, *laughing sarcastically
i got the dvd for moon child first because i hadn't found drama crazy at the time
yea, i've always wondered about his eyes, are they contacts?

[koi.no.michi]

haha, luv your sig
that ep of naruto shippuuden was so good, i luv the omakes at the end
"i'll get right to the point, aren't you ever gonna get married??... also, don't read your smut books in front of us, to put it bluntly, that's sexual harassment"
hahaha

gackt, otanjoubi omedetou!!!!!!!!!!!

[Sakechick]

ummm.....ok...I went a little crazy on the info, sorry about that...but once I get going I cant be stopped!

My Gackt Play List Recommendations
Redemption
Kimi Ga Oikaketa Yume
Road ( A personal Favorite)
Uncontrol
Papa Lapped a Pop Lopped
Speed Master
Fragrance ( one of his best ballads of all time in my opinion)
ANother World
Illuminati (With Malice Mizer days Late 90's)
Metamorphoze (Actually this is on Cha Cha Maru's Album Air, but its not the same song I dont think, I havent heard it off Air. Chachamaru, if you want to know, is his lead Guitarist and has been with him the longest, I believe since 2001. He's 49 and respected in Japan as a Guitar Legend.)

YAY! You're here! I was afraid I was typing to myself at this hour. Yes their contacts. He doesnt always wear them though. I love his brown eyes, but a lot of times his eyes are either hazel blue or grey blue.

That info is what happens when you dont get enough hours at work and you have too much time on your hands to obsess over people you will never know or meet in person....HA!

I was watching Saiunkoku Monogatari and they have a character on there like Hatake. He wears a mask "because his beauty would strike people senseless." In Ep. 18 I think it is, he has to take his mask off due to a hearing ivnestigation headed by enemies of empire. It cracked me up so bad my chest hurt.

I have it, but it's not my Jrocker list at the moment because I change it out every so often. I over played Vanilla. It's one of my favorite live performances he does because there are a load of fanservice sights to be had Especially when Masa was in the band.

Poor masa, I miss him a lot. I hope he's well...he has a hard time.
