Because I need some Kami appreciation amongst all the later era posters. I feel I am selling Gackt a bit short here - I love him too.

Illuminati is such a banger. I’m going to ignore whatever the lyrics translate to - and any implications associated - and simply enjoy myself here…

MALICE MIZER

Illuminati visuals;

Merveilles

I love this shoot so much. They’re all so majestic

UV Special 'MALICE MIZER FILE', pages 205-207

Same as last time. Gorgeous pictures.

(That seems to be my word of the week lately, I wonder how that happened? Maybe I’m just appreciating art more?)

Am I reblogging all of these so that I have them saved somewhere in order to print them out and put them on my wall? Maybe

Maybe it’s just because I don’t know a lot about the band - especially considering most people seem to hate the bara no seido era - but I adore everything about this. Beast of Blood is probably my favourite song by them. I also adore the more gothic look (as a goth, rather than a person interested in Vkei). This whole video is everything I want in life.

From what I’ve heard of the different eras, I also prefer Klaha’s sound to Gackt’s…

I just ordered some Malice Mizer cds, and I’m so excited! Did I pay an obscene amount of money for them? Yes, I did. Will I have to stay home until this time next month to avoid spending more money than feasible? Yes, I will. Was it worth it? I think so 😂. I ordered Merveiles, the Beast of Blood single, and the ‘Best Selection’.

That photo of Klaha with the cat never fails to crack me up

The one and only

I did a translation of this interview. I hope you enjoy 🦋

Gackt: "You know, I can look someone in the eye and say, 'You're beautiful' (in a deep voice like Gackt's) even if it's the first time we're meeting (laughs)."

KO: "That's a very foreigner-like attitude."

Y: "Exactly. The way he delivers his lines perfectly fits his character. In a way, he's a dangerous person... ah, so scary, so scary (laughs)."

Everyone: (bursting out in laughter)

Y: "Honestly, I'm jealous. How many more encounters would I have if I could start conversations like that? I'll try my best."

M: "Well, isn't he the guy who gives off the most seductive male pheromones? (laughs). In fact, when I'm on stage with him, I'm just mesmerized. 'Ah, so this is the pheromone he's emitting...' (laughs)."

KO: "You both seem to be mesmerized by each other (laughs)."

M: "He just makes you feel all sorts of things. You're practically ravished with his eyes. I totally get why women are so taken with him. ♪I want to hold you tight and sleep♪ I experience it firsthand when I'm hugged on stage (laughs)."

Y: "Next time, let's sell Gackt's pheromone-infused perfume (laughs). We could advertise it in magazines with a tagline like, 'This will attract women to you,' and it would be a hit (←completely convinced)."

KO: "Hahahahahaha!! (bursting out in laughter)"

KA: "He always stays calm and gives answers that hit the mark. I always think that's amazing. I'm also envious of how he can do anything. I think he feels a sense of aesthetics in creating himself through every gesture. But if I were to point out one thing, it's that if you keep saying 'thank you' over and over it might be hard to tell which one is sincere. That's the risk."

Gackt: "I'm always grateful, though (laughs)."

KO: "He's quick-witted, and like KAMI said, he can handle pretty much anything. He can even ravish a woman with his eyes."

Gackt: (laughs)

KO: "That's why I try not to make too much eye contact with him, or I'll turn to stone (laughs). There's something strangely persuasive about his eyes and words. His daily life is quite mysterious (laughs)."

Interviewer: "So, what is the common ground between these five unique individuals?"

Gackt: "A sense of uniqueness, loneliness, creativity, a strong desire not to lose..."

KA: "Including all of that, I think it's destiny. The five of us are the 'chosen ones'..."

Gackt: "The chosen ones? (laughs)"

KO: "KAMI is actually a god (laughs)! (←Note: this is where you laugh)"
