Anime Gackt = Japan's Michael Jackson?

[Nikkolas]

And I never asked anyone to agree.

This whole topic is about asking other's opinions.

No. By valid information I meant information that's actually helpful so that people can understand your comparisons. Although wrong information does apply to this thread.

How so?
The only information i gave was what I was told.
If the information I gave here was wrong, that means I never was told anything.

Gack weird, yes by western standards, but Wacko Jacko is weird by universal standards, which moron holds his son out of the balchony window!!!

I actually own Moon Child, got it for only $10. Hyde's actually a pretty good actor, Gackt isn't too bad in it either, but he's quite the dork.

Actually, I have been trying to find Moon Child, but can't find it...

As for Gackt, he is slightly weird, but no where NEAR Michael Jackson. I mean, Jackson man.... That Jackson picture scares me.

And as for Gackt and his lovey preferences, it isn't that odd for him to be gay or bi, I mean, there are many such people in the world. I've heard Hyde will give hickies or receive hickies from guys on stage, and stuff, just to get the fans riled up.

I love his music (even though I to, cannot understand it) and he is quite cute. The weirdest thing I've heard him do is cross-dress in a band he was in, the Mizer one, wasn't it?

Really? You can always try ordering it off Best Buy's website, or something like that, they have it for $13

Exactly, it's all just fanservice.

Malice Mizer is win, and it's alot more than simple cross-dressing, it's more on the scale of theatre.

No, it's not an agreeable statement.

1. Gackt doesn't invite little boys to his mansion.

2. His voice is better.

3. He couldn't dance good if his life depended on it.

4. He's not a hideous monster. I mean come on, do you really think this:

looks anything like this?

I agree! Gackt is way easier on the eyes. And yeah, I also agree that Gackt is all about keeping a mysterious persona, it keeps people interested without completely freaking the hell outta them, unline Michael Jackson who is just weird because he's completely insane.

I'm gonna sound stupid here, but I didn't realize Gackt had so much plastic surgery. Let's hope he knows when to stop, unlike ol' MJ!


For the record, I prefer HYDE's music to Gackt's. Did they collaborate on an album or a song together? I don't really know much about either of them but I LOVE their music.

Well I know he doesn't have any issues with his nose being "too big" and alway wanted to make it smaller and stuff, so we don't need to worry about that. He's gonna look pretty fugly when he's older though

They performed Orenji no Taiyou together for Moon Child, and they've probably done other stuff too that I'm unaware of.

Gackt is nothing like Michael Jackson.. absolutely NOTHING. He's a phenomenal singer and entertainer, and absolutely angelic appearance wise.. unlike Michael Jackson, who's been overrated from the get-go(though Thriller is STILL a classic).

 

[thefranking]

XD! I Loled when I saw the name of this thread! ... I guess Gackt is similar to MJ with all the plastic surgery, but he looks normal and isn't a PEEEDO~ So I don't think so

His eyes look like they're filled with Mako, which is rly rly cool =)

 

[VI0LET]

...I may be a Gackt fan.
but i was brought up on Michael's Music.
and for one thing, Michael wasnt a Pedo, if any of you people care to read up, he was found not guilty. :\
Also, Due to his father, he never had a childhood, thats why his head was abit messed up.. i mean, wouldnt you be mentally scarred after being beaten, etc, not aloud to play like a normal child, and just practice music all the time? :/
as for the photos, there was TONS of nice photos of MJ out there.. during the 90's, he had a very nice look to him. but yes, he went over board on the surgery.
anyway, to the point. in a sense, i could see that If you wanted to start listening to J-Rock/Pop, Gackt would be one of the first people you listen too, in the same way, MJ would be one of the first people you listen to if you wanted to start listening to English Rock/Pop. :/
Also, MJ is/was HUGE in Japan, so much so he was in a anime or two.
Also, Both keep their personal life to themselves, dont they? and You think MJ is weird, at least he didnt think he was a Vampire.

Please, at least, Read up about MJ before you bring him down.

 

[Mokken]

That's what I've heard. Only that Gackt is perhaps weirder than Mike.

Is this an agreeable statement?

Is it agreeable in the sense that Gackt takes little boys to his mansion, makes them drink vodka and tonic and then rapes them?

I mean, he dresses like a gay so i guess it does kind of make sense

 

[LissaGackt]

Really Gackt look like Michael Jackson? Please explain why Gackt look like Michael Jackson

 

[VI0LET]

Really Gackt look like Michael Jackson? Please explain why Gackt look like Michael Jackson

I dont think they Are going on looks.
I think they are going on the personality and life-styles, singing styles, etc.

 

[LissaGackt]

[VI0LET]
