questions most commonly asked about me and/or my site
"how did you come up with your layout?"
lots of trial and error. i usually work on my website while i'm at school, so i do a decent amount of drafting for anything that i don't have a clear direction for on chrome canvas! below are the drafts i made for my website all the way back in september when i decided to actually work on my site, most are for the home page! the first one is just the about page though. i used color coding for the home page to help categorize certain things because i wanted to include multiple stuff.
image descs in order, left-right, top-bottom order: about page, first home draft, second home draft (i think) w/ extra notes, final home draft (in use right now!)

"is that gackt"
whos that i only know the second malice mizer vocalist who left the band in december 1998 to be a solo artist whos debut single was called mizerable and then went on to release his first album called mars where the 8th track is called DEARS and then his music got to a point where it could be considered jpop as well and then some time in 2008 he got his own vocaloid and then for something official stickers were put out on line which i NOW USE ACROSS MY WEBSITE. btw guys whats the gackt archive? idk the owner ive never heard of him either what do you mean?
"how did you become a gackt fan?"
alright.. this is going to be long.. but you asked about my biggest interest EVER don't act like you weren't expecting it
ok so lets go all the way back to 2020.. a good 5 years. lockdown. quarantine. pandemic. whatever you wanna call it. i (10 y/o at this time) was scrolling on the internet watching stuff but then i saw videos using a song by malice mizer over and over. i went "oh i like the voice of the guy singing a lot" and i looked it up and listened to it once and then forgot the name. THEN, a few weeks later, i'm trying to sleep but the tune of the chorus is stuck in my head. i try to remember it and give up. then right as i feel like i'm about to fully sleep the song of the name pops up in my head: "au revoir". i RUSH to where i kept my phone, pulled it off its charger, looked up the song, listened to it along with the mv, and saved the name.
so then a few days later of listening to this song from the band only i decide to listen to the album this is from, merveilles. fun fact, i never listened to an entire album before because i never thought anything was good. but yeah i listen to merveilles and i think "this is so good wtf i need more" and i listen to other stuff from the band like the uruwashiki singles, the voyage album, etc. until i click on some other stuff and am just really fucking confused going "huh why isnt it the same guy. why isnt it gackt"
at this time the hate on gackt was HUGE so 1. i was worried to admit to being a fan of his and 2. i had no idea how his solo stuff would sound. i'm hesitant to listen to his solo stuff cause i only heard one song from it ever (which was vanilla of all songs... i still dont get how it wasnt mizerable.) until i give in in late 2022 and listen to his solo stuff. i listen to mizerable, it's good. i listen to mizerable only for around a month or so. then in ONE DAY, i sit my ass down and listen to mars, rebirth, moon, crescent, love letter, and diabolos in ONE SITTING. i didn't pause or get up to even take something to eat. didn't do anything else while listening to it. i was focused on listening and nothing else. and yeah it changed my life cause the next day i listen to the rest of his discography going "hey it wasn't as bad as people said wtf this is really peak actually" and yeah. been active in the actual fan community since like early 2023 though. i'm only on twitter though cause on tiktok there are a few. weird fans of his. and oomf on twitter is like the gackt news PERSOn so yeah shoutout to emmy. i am the gackt poster she is the gacktologist:fire:
