Done as he pleased… with extremity…The MV that has been given a view discretion advisory has reached over 100,000 views on the day of it’s release. With the shocking MV, his dubbing in 「King Kong」, and his annual graduation ceremony secret live, there isn’t a shortage of topics in which GACKT is involved in as his new single finally gets released.
GACKT’s 48th single 『Tsumi no Keisho ~ORIGINAL SIN~』, which is the ending theme song for TV anime 『TRICKSTER -Edogawa Ranpo 「Shonen Tanteidan」 Yori-』, has been released today, on March 22 (Wed). The MV that consists of shocking footage has reached over 100,000 views in the first day of it’s release. After that, despite being bound by 「regulation」, it surpassed over 200,000 views. This time, in an interview with GACKT himself, he said that 「I did as I pleased」, 「it’s extreme」, and 「don’t run away from life」. Despite that it is 「out of regulation」, the number of views on the view is proof that this straight message continues to spread steadily.
Along with the release, GACKT was also involved in the TV anime 『TRICKSTER -Edogawa Ranpo 「Shonen Tanteidan」 Yori-』, the dubbing of the movie 「King Kong」 as a voice actor, and also held his customary annual 「graduation ceremony secret live」 among other things. Many empathized with him and have said 「he does as he likes」, and 「he defies the boundaries」, similar to what he has said in previous writeups.
Also, while the extreme music video has had both positive and negative opinions, there were praises for the song appearing one after another on Twitter, saying things like 「I love Tsumi no Keisho so much♪ An edgy song with a strong message, cries from the heart, the depiction of insanity, the beautiful and powerful vocals, one of a kind…」, 「the lyrics are great」, and 「The arrangement of the song is cool, the lyrics are cool too, it’s a world I like.」.
GACKT grips the emotions of listeners with a variety of expression forms. Please do listen to the music of 『Tsumi no Keisho ~ORIGINAL SIN~』, feel every corner of the 【viewer discretion】 MV, and take a step into the 「unregulated」 world.
