Haaaa, me thinks so too! Not being particularly observant myself ... does Gackt change the colour of his contacts? or has it always been blue?

I'm not going to say this as definate, but I've only ever seen him with blue contacts

^ mel, he's always had blue eyes, remember that one part from moonchild where they close up. they are ocean light blue... happy.gif

I remember seeing him with grey contacts once in a while, but the blue ones seem to be his favourites.
Aside of all this biggrin.gif He has worn also light brown contacts I think, for one Fool's Mate photoshoot. And also green ones, around MARS time (concert included).

Shiva_K
Ne I'm going to say a few things of the concert... so please be careful and don't read this if you guys haven't watched it yet!!!
Warning~ SPOILERS ahead!!!




SPOILER In general I want to say that Gackt's voice is still awesome, beautiful & powerful. When I listen to him... *sigh* What more... oh yeah, the music of a few of songs has been slightly changed, as the lyrics of one song (I think U+K, though I'm not sure). All the ouftits are beautiful, especially the coat and the Todokanai Ai outfit wub.gif


The mini-movie: I like it very much ^__^ The image of Gackt with white eyes is awesome. When they're riding on horses towards the DARTS is amazing, though I don't like very much the digital movements of the horses. And when they appear in the Tokyo Dome... wow, sugooo~i.

Dybbuk: I don't like very much this song, but wa, I love the live blink.gif I like the sound effects (like the blades one), and the rap of Gakuto & You is great biggrin.gif
White Eyes: Very appropriate song for this hehe. He sang it very well happy.gif
Dispar... ummmm Dispar blush.gif I love the dance, I love Gackt's dance wub.gif
Metamorphoze: That microphone is soooo~ cool! w00t.gif And very good performance as well ^___^
Redemption: What a great song!! ohmy.gif It sounds so so well! I love it! I'm looking forward to my copy.
Ash: Well, one of the "touching" moments for me... blush.gif Ash is my fav' song from DIABOLOS, and he sang it perfectly, even better than in the CD, 'cause here he's more emotional... Aishnnnn Gakuto I love you so much ^__^
Misty: Another touching moment hehe... while he was playing the piano there I couldn't stop thinking of... well it's pretty hard to explain, but I can make it short and say that I was thinking of so much I admire him happy.gif


Lust for blood: Maybe my fav' performance of the concert... The first part with all the GacktJOB with the masks... very Malice biggrin.gif I love it ^__^ The coffin!!!! awesome. The "church" windows which the lights form... beautiful. The colours are so nice... The music, his voice... perfect. He looks like a real vampire to me wub.gif
Noesis: I thought this performance was going to be different, but is really nice and somehow misterious though. At first I didn't like that weird criatures, but their outfits with the long sleeves are cool ^___^ Very nice indeed, I love the Gackt's movements. And the end is nice, how they "switch off". Btw, what do the pink criatures represent in MOON story? Maybe "normal" people? I say this because Gackt "bites" one of them.
Farewell: Great, with the torchs and the red lights wub.gif

The other clip: biggrin.gif biggrin.gif biggrin.gif I laughed so much hehe. Btw, I do love the Black Stone ouftit!!!!!!!1


Black Stone & Mirror: Great as well smile.gif He always gets so excited when he sings Mirror biggrin.gif And the MC in Mirror... yay, Gakuto indeed biggrin.gif
MC: Haha, Gakuto is so funny biggrin.gif wub.gif When the two boys & the three girls are there I laughed very much biggrin.gif And when the members are giving the things to the criying-girl... biggrin.gif And yeah, You is touched there ne smile.gif
Ah, there's two moments where Gackt says "arigatou..." and bows... OMG, that's too nice IPB Image
U+K: Happy cats as always biggrin.gif (btw, yesterday I noticed one of the cats -the green one- has in his head that veins "symbol", I mean, he's angry xD). I love Gackt's solo at first ^___^


Storm: I like the song, but I don't like very much the perf... 'cause the dancer's outfits are fine, but don't go with Gackt's outfit I think...
Road: Very nice smile.gif Gackt's smile is the best biggrin.gif


Todokanai Ai: Bufffffff blush.gif wub.gif OMG what a beautiful live!! The song sounded so well... And the ouftits, the blades, WA!!!

12Gatsu no Love Song & Love Letter: Very very nice, I was looking forward to see him "fliying" smile.gif It's awesome, he goes along a large area of the Tokyo Dome. The violins wub.gif And the end, with that effect is awesome ^___^

An that's all... when the video stopped and the TV screen went black... I was so sad and happy at the same time!! happy.gif I wanted more ^O^

News from Gakuhai!

QUOTE
Over 6000 people went to the concert at the Seoul Olympic Park last night. Gackt performed 18 songs, and it sounds like everyone was very impressed with it all. Unfortunately, today's headlines are mostly like "Gackt faints at first Korean concert" (perhaps that's better than yesterday's 'Gackt says: "Jang Dong Gun is a hot man"', or the ones about him being 466, though).

Apparently he collapsed about an hour into the concert, at the end of a song. Two of his staff members carried him backstage, and they had to stop the concert for about 5 minutes while he recovered. It was just as the lights went out and so the audience didn't even realise what had happened until it was explained to them. But he came back out and greeted everyone in Korean, and continued without any more problems.
OMG sad.gif I'm happy the concert was great but... Gakuto IPB Image

Wah, fainting again.... I wondered how Gakuto manages to do so many three hour shows sad.gif ... it must be so straining...

Well, I got good and bad news, the good news is, finally I watched the concert yesterday and it took me until 4 am to do so tongue.gif... well, I had lots of things to say about this but now we have the bad news, my PC monitor at home today decided to cease functioning and blew up, so at the moment I am not able to use my computer at home sad.gif.... waaaa.... I am currently writing this from work and it seems I will be unable to use my PC at home for the time being, and I don´t know how long it will take to get my monitor repaired or get a new one, thank god I have internet at work, so at least I´ll be able to visit the thread from here ....

My first impression of the concert in a few short words here (Highlight to read)!!

I loved the first part, many many good songs and powerful performances.... the mc and inbetween part was quite funny with the guy in the green pullover being the first on stage.... the movie before playing Black Stone was hilarious!!! Chacha was so funny in the Seventies dress tongue.gif.... the second part was rather short, wasn´t it?... and I couldn´t help but notice that Gackt was very cool often, not so smiley-happy as on other occasions, in other concerts.... he was too cool for my taste in some few occasions.... I would have loved to see him a little more "happy" at times.... and I noticed that some songs were played using playback.... of course I don´t mind him doing that when he sings a song like Juunigatsu no Lovesong, when he´s hanging on the wires or swordfighting but I wished he wouldn´t have used playback on Love Letter, as I love that song so much and would have loved to hear him sing it live....but there would be lots of positive things to say about it too, don´t have too much time to write them down now.... and You crying was so heartbreaking, wah...

Well, so much for now, but there´d be lots of stuff to say about it... gotta get back to work now.... I will so miss my internet at home tears.gif ...

About the concert (SPOILERSSS)
Why do you say that Love Letter is playback? Neither my bfriend nor me think it's playback

(Spoiler/ Highlight to read) Juunigatsu no Lovesong was a playback too it seems, well, Love Letter sounds exactly as on the Love Letter CD, even to the higher keys which are extremely hard to sing well live and the sound just sounds differently to the live songs in the concert which had the exclusive "live sound" to them... and furthermore you can see that he isn´t always totally in synch with the sound, his lips I mean... it struck me before that he often used playback in earlier concerts too whenever he had those swordfights and such but not on a slow song before, well, apart from Ares in the Mars concert maybe, but he also used the wiring there... maybe it was necessary because of the wiring here too and they couldn´t change it back for Love Letter, who knows? wink.gif ...

Wah, gotta go home soon, see ya tomorrow guys, ne?
Shiva_K
SPOILERS again!! biggrin.gif

Well, maybe is playback, obviously I can't assure he's not doing playback but... we've re-re-watched laugh.gif the perform of that songs and we think they sound normal... and a little different from the recorded songs. For songs like Lu:na from The Sixth Day & Seventh Night I would understand he did playback (because the mask and stuff) but here... there's no reason blink.gif There exists cordless wiring isn't it? biggrin.gif I don't know, after the things that happened in Korea last June... I don't think he did playback in two songs mellow.gif But I repeat, I don't know.


See you tomorrow~ ^O^

Okay this isn't so much a spolier as commenting on what Esti said. I agree I don't think he would use playback after things in Korea. It may be that sometime things don't sync up on the tv, or when it was being transfered to the computer. It has happened with a dvd I was watching on the computer and all the speaking was off from the lip movements, but it was fine when I watched it on my tv.

Thanks a lot, Melissa! wink.gif...

I rewatched the last too songs in the concert today and (Spoiler/Highlight to read) I am still pretty sure that it was a playback. I don´t mind Gackt doing playback at all, as long as it isn´t all of the concert and I am pretty sure that whenever he uses playback, it´s for good reason. I think it´s pretty obvious in both of those songs as I find the sound very different and very much sounding like the CD version and it´s not the transfer which makes the lip movements a little off, it´s really only in those two last songs and if there was a delay in the three hour concert, it would have appeared a lot earlier. So I stick by what I say, but again, I don´t mind Gakuto doing that, as I think he must have good reasons and I think it has something to do with the wiring he used smile.gif.... but I don´t wanna convince anyone, everybody probably sees it differently wink.gif...about the monitor, wah, I phoned with the technicians today and they said that I would get my new monitor delivered in two to four days!! w00t.gif So that´s good news and I will be back to the thread again from home biggrin.gif....

What I wanted to say about the concert as well (Spoiler/Highlight to read) I loved Redemption and Lust for Blood... those were really the highlights for me in the first half of the concert... and it seems the audience loved those too because they seemed to have been very enthusiastic smile.gif.... wah, still so much more to talk about, I´ll do so when I can post from home again smile.gif...

News~ from Gakuhai:

QUOTE
There's a really good article today which talks about how Korea is just the beginning, and Gackt is going to do a big Asian tour this (next) year.
Wooo IPB Image Well, all we're worried about his health ne? But this must be one of the most importants dreams of his life so... YAY!! IPB Image You're going to do it very well Gackt IPB Image

QUOTE
Apparently he did the whole of the MC of the concert on Saturday in Korean, and spoke for 20 minutes. (That's pretty impressive; he must really be fluent, as a lot of the articles say). About the Asian tour, Gackt says a few things about it: 「台湾, 中国の北京・上海・香港、さらに複数のアジア諸国での公演を計画している」, & 「韓国、そしてアジアツアーは、07年、08年のさらに大きなモノへの布石。アジアの中で誰もなしえなかったことをやりたい」- he's currently planning performances in Taiwan & China (Beijing, Shanghai & Hong Kong), as well as other Asian countries, and is preparing to do Asian tours in 2007/2008.

IPB Image

QUOTE
There are differing reports as to whether there were 6000 or 8000 people at Gackt's concert, and whether he performed 17 or 18 songs. It seems that he fainted at the end of the 3rd part of the concert, after Road. So that was very close to the end, and he did manage to wait until after the song to do it. Well, he's back home now & he wrote in his diary again today. He's going to be on Heyx3 on the 23rd, on a few magazine covers later this month.

More info from Dears:
QUOTE
Note: I 'm not native English speaker, so I write a summary of the news, not a full text.

"Gackt spoke 20 minutes to the audience. Asia wide tour is going to start near next year!"

Gackt performed his first independent live in Seoul, South Korea. Gackt tour action around Asia is going to start within this year. The starting point was in the city of Seoul, January 15.

Gackt comes to Asia. The large scale tour is going to conquer China (happy.gif), Taiwan (^0^) and more places. January 14, singer Gackt was interviewed at the press-conference by Sankei (http://www.sankei.co.jp/), he commented his future actions. It seems his asian fans' dream will come true. So the first step was made. Gackt talked to the audience of "Olympic Public" during 20 minutes in Korean. It was a real "step-forward" to Asia!
The audience was exited; everybody was full of emotions and cried in admiration. A day before the live Gackt was interviewed by Sankei' people. He responded he is going to an Asia wide tour will take place in "China (Beijin, Shanghai), Taiwan and Hong Kong. Actually, more (asian) countries are in the list". So that was his thesis.
A budget of the yesterday live is about 10.000.000 korean won. The live will improve selling of the new single, "Redemption". Gackt's song texts in Chinese and Korean language, his ability to communicate easily with an audience in different languages will raise his popularity to the top in Asia.
Gackt said the tour program "is in process now", it will be finished by this summer. His strategic plans open to the years of 2007 and 2008!

January, 25 new single "REDEMPTION" will be out. Wait for it!

Prefers written mail to e-mail - he says that written letters (and sent photographs, choice of stationary, etc.) all say a lot about the writers' personalities.
Likes to be clean and neat
Gackt on the goal of his music - he says he wants to move people emotionally with his music as well as express himself
Likes incense (coconut milk flavor - he eats(!!) and burns it), wine (Gavi di Gavi, an Italian white wine), cars and driving, women (with "strong eyes"), a brand of cigarettes called Joker [don't smoke! it's bad for you!], and a comic called BANANA FISH
Wants to know everything about everything - the first thing he did when he went into a room was go through all the drawers and look under all the furniture. He also reads instruction manuals very thoroughly.

At the concert, 12gatsu no love song and love letter sounded like it was live, and not a playback. ^^;
The TV version, love letter is less nasally than the CD version. o_O;
Shiva_K
^ I agree with you ^__^ Actually I think all the concert sounded less nasally that the CDs (imo) happy.gif

/Edit
I'm comparing the Love Letter live and the CD version and although the voice sounds slightly different to me, really they both sounds exactly the same... there's not any variation. I don't know, maybe Bianca is right and that two songs (or Love Letter) are playback indeed. (And if so, I agree with Bianca, I'm also absolutely sure that it's because very good reasons, of course).

Gackt's diary updated

fordear

"I am back.
I have just come back to Japan and finally the present work has come to an end.
How tired.
But it is worth being exhausted.
What should be done has been done.
Besides, I’m going to start again.
Start again from where I am.

Although I wanna write more stuff, my eyes sort of hurts right now due to the fatigue.

I think I will publish these in the tour book.
The communication between souls must have been conveyed to everyone.

Gackt"
He's exhausted and I don't think he can rest very much this month... mellow.gif I couldn't do that, I admire him happy.gif

Oops, I forgot to ask you which recorded version of 12gatsu no love song your are comparing to. XD

Esti, thanx for the photos... sooo hott...

after reading the translations that explains the way diabolos is organized, does this mean that all of Gackt's albums are connected...? or more than diabolos and moon?
it would be awesome if anyone wants to read the translations too!

Esti thank you so much for that. *chu* Yes, I like it alot... biggrin.gif there were some points in the interview where I was grinning madly...Gackt really confirmed some of the thoughts I had myself.

@all: Sorry that I'm so silent at the moment. I'm having a hard time here, there are construction works going on in the shop under my appartment, it's really loud and it has been going on for days...I feel like I can't think, I always have headache from the noise, and on top of that I don't sleep very well...*sigh* But I'm reading everything, so I'm not completely gone.

*hugs all*

I've read the translations smile.gif MOON, Crescent & DIABOLOS are connected. Are the different parts of the same story smile.gif
MOON & Crescent are the fourth chapter, and are located in the near future. DIABOLOS & the next album cover the second and third chapter (1300 - Current time) ^___^

Wah, I don´t have time today to post and read much, am still at work sad.gif.... I haven´t compared Juunigatsu no Lovesong either but I am more or less sure that it sounds exactly like the CD version tongue.gif.... maybe if someone wants he/she could investigate and compare them tongue.gif...
