Heather Nov 12 2018 2:26 pm Why does Gackt kiss the one guy I'm confused

micah Aug 19 2018 11:36 pm By now, I'm honestly used to seeing Fumi with male leads that has a big age gap but Gackt as a highschooler???? Lmaooo big wtf

(Somehow i still find myself intrigued for the movie tho)

Yasushi Apr 12 2018 1:41 pm Lol, Gackt. A high school student? Nikaido is a great actress, but Gackt.. why oh why?

Desiree Apr 11 2018 8:51 pm LoLz, I hope he is not really a "high schooler" in this. Gackt looks young, but damn son, not that young. He uses a lot of make up already when he plays roles..... Maybe he is a vampire....definitely probably should read the book, cause I just can't understand this. lolz

Mid-life crisis???? lmaaooo

Karen Khoo Apr 11 2018 8:00 am Isn't Gackt-san too old to play the role of a high school student?

Kensuke Apr 11 2018 12:25 am Gackt is famous singer and briefly married to Korean women but annualled. I remember him as 20 Faces seiyuu and sung the opening ang ending of that said anime. I hope he portray it as young high school despite of age. A rockstar aura, tanoshimi to watch it.

anya Apr 08 2018 11:27 pm Not familiar with this manga. So Gackt will be playing a high school student???
