Week in Review & CAGS!!
Let's recap the news in GACKT-land...
♥News♥
GACKT has appeared on several TV shows this week.
Unfortunately, the video from Ce Matin has been taken down from YouTube.
His appearance on TOKIO Kakeru can be seen on Mio or YouTube
Today, November 6th, a video comment from GACKT was broadcast on 'Daredatte Haran Bokusho'. This hasn't been uploaded anywhere, as yet. His comment was for the comedy duo Black Mayonnaise, who were the main guests on the show. GACKT told a story about when he was in Romania filming Bunraku. The filming schedule was tough for him, as it began at 5am and ended at midnight every day, and he feared that he wouldn't be able to keep up with the filming. A staff member showed him Black Mayonnaise performing at a comedy contest. GACKT and Black Mayonnaise are the same age, and he was so moved by how earnest and enthusiastic they were about their performance, that he took courage from it. He said that he watched their performance at least 100 times, and called them a "life saviour". He's since become friends with them.
GACKT will be featured on Music Japan TV's show 'Saishin! Music Japan TV Countdown Top 20'. The first airing is on November 12th, at 10am.

From TAKUMI's Weibo. He has mentioned several times in both his Instagram and Weibo posts this week that he has been recording new music. GACKT is due to record his vocals anytime now.
This is TAKUMI's studio. Some of LAST MOON was produced here.
TAKUMI went to an industry show in Japan this week with Val. The man on TAKUMI's right (third from left) is TAKUMI's father, Hideki Samejima, who is a famous bass player in his own right (and played bass on WHITE LOVERS, actually). Next to his father is KenKen, from the band RIZE.

GACKT updated his Instagram Stories, for the first time. These are posts that don't post to the timeline as normal, and automatically delete after 24 hours.
Happy Haloweeeeeen!!
I can't believe myself...I believed that I'm so far from HW. But a lot of neighbor kids visit me so I went buy a lot of candies and snacks. Feel so weird but...Happy Haloweeeen!!!!!!!!
Hi bros n sisters. How are you doing? Do you have a wonderful time? Well, when you are attacked by someone in a narrow back street. You need this. Normally you can't use any kicks there but if you get it, you can go to a back street anytime. Ok, just get it and go to a narrow back street!!
Hi bros n sister. How are you doing? I still have a cold. Really annoying... Btw, this is about a tutorial of the narrow kicking and application. The leg looks like coming to the down but changing the direction to the high on the way. See? Ok. Go out and find a narrow space between buildings and try it. Lol
