Ayumi Hamasaki - Japanese pop megastar and friend of Gackt - she was his 'Valentine' last year, this year it is You! will release her new album Next Level on USB flash drive.

USB distribution has been tried before, but this is a first for a major label in Japan. The USB album will be released in limited quantity on the same day as the regular CD version on March 25. The album will be released in a total of 4 different packages, including a CD+DVD combination. The USB edition will include all 13 tracks from the regular CD, 6 music videos, and a lyric booklet.

The USB flash drive itself will have a capacity of 2 GB. The album will take up about 800 MB, while the remaining 1.2 GB of space is free to use. At a price of 6,800 yen, the USB version is said to be a bargain, as typical USB drives reportedly sell for around 4,000 to 5,000 yen.

The USB will be packaged in a case the same size as a normal CD case, making it easy to display in stores. Oricon will apparently include the USB drive version in its sales tracking.

What would you think of a Gackt album released via USB drive?

Gackt Weatherman! (carried off by guards)
I could swear that is the voice of American network anchor Katie Couric.

This is one of two promo pics Gackt did for Valentines Day and White Day



Gackt sponsored a chocolate gift box, where he helped to choose the candy flavors, but for years Gackt has stated he doesn't like chocolate! But for a lover of spicy food, chocolate is a good way to cool down the tongue after eating hot peppers, so perhaps Gackt would eat it then.

In Japan on Valentines Day, women give men chocolate, for some ladies, this can be quite an expensive holiday, if one has many men in the workplace, where these gifts are referred to as giri-choko or 'obligation chocolate' 

A month from now, March 14 is White Day, where men are supposed to return the favor and purchase chocolates for the ladies.

Our chocolates to Gackt will always be honemi-choko - true love chocolate!

The answer is YES. Any fanfic, fanart fanvids, etc. that are Gackt-related, may be posted here, this includes Gackt as Genesis, Gackt as Lau Wong, and future Gackt as Yoshi from Bunraku.

RPS is also welcome, but we ask for complete headers, so that if anyone wants to avoid certain content they can (cos Officer Taka cringes when I slash Genesis and his fellow SOLDIER Angeal.) For your protection and our own, we must insist that each come with a disclaimer and notice of adult content.

As a mod, I get questions about posting daily, and I did think if I keep getting lots of questions, I'll should make a post in com - but in future, I'll just direct members to the new Gackt Army F.A.Q page, and the User Info.

Thank You
GK

A really quick job, please ignore the odd black artifacts where I erased the minions who were helping him with his pants.
This card must also do double duty as a birthday card for ELEGANTPAWS, and was inspired by her posting of Beckham in his skivvies.
Everyone have a good day and be your own best valentine.

Gackt has updated his blog. He's currently in Nagano, filming new music video (at 4 a.m.!!) They parted for the place of filming yesterday at 4 a.m., so it seems to be a 24-hours filming again. He still hasn't recovered yet and this sleepless activity isn't good for his health, of course. But since he's laughing, I hope it's not that bad. It's rather cold in Nagano now, and it's raining...
Well, he seems to be in a good mood because girls from staff unexpectedly have offered him chocolates for Valentine's Day. He was really happy about that (hmm, and I thought he hated chocolate... )

That's what I've understood. Please, look forward to the complete and good English translation =_=
