He doesn't trip over himself to use keigo/polite speak and is more blunt and honest than most celebrities you'll see on Japanese TV. But I do think he's dead serious about being ready to retire and not be "Gackt". Sadly, that fame will likely follow him until the day he dies.

      sarcasm is when someone purposely says the exact opposite with an obvious sarcastic tone, how the fuck would you otherwise know if the person is sarcastic or not? gackt just speaks very monotonously, is not even making jokes, nor tries to be sarcastic, since he knows that people will laugh at him anyway bc of his clout. I mean, even joey had trouble understanding if he was joking or not and is forcing himself to laugh at his lame ass dry jokes. i dont hate on the guy, but this is not my cup of tea, this is not sarcasm, just abusing fame, begging to be liked.

    4. He hasn't aged that much since the 90s?
    This whole thing is just 🤯..

    • @Megrez-Alberich

      M+M were already making good music when Tetsu was their vocalist, and they were still making amazing music during their period of mourning Kami's death and then with Klaha as their new vocalist. I would even go so far as to say that their music was actually better when Gackt was _not_ in the band.
      Sure, Gackt has the good looks with the voice to match, and the band became really popular in great part thanks to him, but for me the "Gackt era" was somewhat a tad too cheesy and too mawkish for my taste... That's why I was actually glad when Gackt left. It meant no more songs like "Claire~tsuki no shirabe", "Premier Amour", "Après-midi", or "Je te veux", which was a good thing as far as I was concerned. It meant that they would probably take a new direction, and I was really excited about it. Of course, back then nobody could have guessed that Kami would die 6 months after Gackt's departure...
