GACKT will have the lead role in a new movie, 'Karanukan', that will be set in Okinawa and released in 2017. For full information, including a brief synposis of the movie, check out the OGYD entry here -
http://ohgacktyoudidnt.livejournal.com/603846.html GACKT has been filming videos for the LAST VISUALIVE tour this week. The filming involved many actors from MOON SAGA I and II, and several photos have been shared. They're not particularly spoilery, as they are mainly just of the shooting stage and people involved. You can see many photos from GACKT of the filming in the GACKTstagram section below.
As well as posting photos from the shoot in his blog, Mayo Kawasaki also wrote about a funny story that GACKT told him. It was later picked up by some of the news sites, too.
Yesterday, for the first time in a long time I met GACKT.
First of all, here's a photo with him.
For the first time in ages, I was Taira no Tomomori from 'MOON SAGA-Yoshitsune Hiden II'.
Here is a funny GACKT story from when we were waiting to film.
"Today, for the first time in ages, I drove myself to the filming studio.
I didn't have much gas, so I went to a gas stand.
Halfway through, I noticed that I'd forgotten my wallet.
Because it was too late to say "sorry, I've forgotten my wallet",
I searched all through my car,
wondering what should I do...
Then I saw that I had 10,000 yen in my phone case.
I had no credit cards on me, and although it wasn't cool,
I gave the staff at the gas stand my ten thousand yen.
They finished pumping the gas and I was going to leave,
but they banged on my window.
I thought they'd say "Aren't you GACKT?"
but they said "Um, here's your the change."
Not cool.
"Ah, keep the change" I said and they were happy."
Everyone laughed.
And,
while feeling and checking his phone case,
GACKT said to his staff
"Bring me 10,000 yen from my wallet"
Ah, that's right.
GACKT keeps 10,000 yen in there as a good luck charm, I remembered.
The manager brought GACKT's wallet.
GACKT looked inside his wallet.
Huh?
Huh?
Although there were several bills in there,
all of the bills in his hand were foreign currency.
Since returning to Japan from Malaysia,
he hadn't changed the money in his wallet.
