GACKT made use of his Instagram Stories this week. This is a feature that only allows the photos and videos to remain on Instagram for 24 hours. But hey, this is the internet, nothing is truly deleted...
(I think the Facebook embed has cut off the bottom of the video, so you can see the full screen version here)

Hi bros n sisters How are you doing? I finally recovered from the heavy cold!! It was reeeeally long this time. Well, this kick is a variation of the Narrow round kick. He'll expect that I aim to the middle but it will hit to the upper part. Wile working at a checking counter, when a bad attitude man complains you, give it to his face with a wonderful smile. Just do it.
Good morning! (It's very dark and hard to see, but he has Angie with him)

Hi bros n sisters. How are you doing? I just finished dinner now. This is a way to get a shoulder muscle. This is really easy way so you can try it first. Looks so easy, right?
In this Instagram Story, TAKUMI is talking about the structure of the song they're recording.

Hi bros n sisters. How are you doing? This is the vol2 of shoulder pull ups. Can you tell how to do it? It's easy to get the shoulder muscles. You don't need to use a face muscle. Ok? Just do it.

GACKT
GACKT was tired after an early morning in the airport, but he was happy with the cappuccino in the hotel.
GACKT posted about taking part in the poker tournament. He was annoyed at himself for missing a four of a kind.
Leaving Macau, and GACKT was amazed by the walking stick/chair.
Fans on Webio are being asked to write love letters for GACKT, using a special hashtag. This nice promo photo was added to the post asking for the letters, and later in the week GACKT reposted a couple and liked a few more.
Drinking coffee in the early morning rain
GACKT drove to the airport to pick up a friend, but ran out of gas. His usual 30 minute journey ended up taking 2 hours.
GACKT and friends were playing poker while it rained.
He was in meetings about upcoming projects. One is a cosmetics line that he's been developing for awhile.
The rain stopped, so GACKT took in some sun. He also spoke about making a good new song.
GACKT shows that you have to tighten your muscles to withstand hits in this video.

TAKUMI
TAKUMI was with GACKT in Macau. It appears there was a meeting about the world tour there, and then TAKUMI also entered the poker tournament.
The recording is going smoothly, and lots of friends from Japan are there.
Watching Japanese zombie movie "I am Hero."
PPAP TAKUMI
TAKUMI was surprised by the rain, and said South East Asia's seasons aren't the same as Japan's four seasons.
TAKUMI likes Chinese food and asked for recommendations [hello, Val!]
TAKUMI watched the movie "Kingsman"
It seems that GACKT taught TAKUMI how to play chess.

Hey CAGS, how was your week? How are things going for our American members...?
And, one final interesting note about the Poker tournament. The tournament's official blog recapped the events of Day 1A and wrote about a hand involving Takumi Samejima (that's Takumi's full name). They also wrote about the circumstances that led to a Gakuto Oshiro being knocked out of the tournament. Oshiro is one of the most common Okinawan surnames, and with only 105 people playing, the odds on there being another Gakuto from Okinawa have to be pretty slim...
Also, for the foresable future, any of GACKT's Instagram Stories photos and videos, or Weibo photos and videos will be shared on OGYD's Twitter and Facebook, so why not give us a follow if you don't already? (It may take a little time for the videos, it depends on where I am when he posts those)
