GACKT Praised Black Mayonnaise, Likening Them to His「Life saviours」

  • In the broadcast on the 6th, GACKT likened Black Mayonnaise as his 「life saviours」
  • When GACKT was cornered by mental pressure, he watched Black Mayonnaise’s jokes
  • He was moved by their determination, and was able to reset his mindset

GACKT confessed about entertainers who could be considered as his life saviours 「They saved me. I might’ve given up on being GACKT」

During the broadcast of NTV’s 「Dare Datte Haran Bakusho」 on the 6th, GACKT likened the comedian duo Black Mayonnaise as his 「life saviours」.

On this day, Black Mayonnaise, who will soon celebrate their 19th year anniversary since debut, introduced their private and work life. In the middle of the program, GACKT appeared in the form of a video message, and revealed his surprising relationship with Black Mayonnaise. In the video, GACKT showed a deep gratitude to Black Mayonnaise as his 「life saviours」.

According to GACKT, the reason comes from an episode during the time when he had to spend 2 months in Romania during the filming of the Hollywood movie 「BUNRAKU」. It appeared that GACKT was dealing with a co-starring role in that movie, but because he was inexperienced with Hollywood movies, he did not know when to relax. In addition, with a jam-packed filming schedule which started from 5 a.m. in the morning to late at night, he also felt cornered by the mental pressure.

Just then, his assistant at the time sent GACKT a video of Black Mayonnaise performing their gags at the comedian contest, the 「M-1 Gran Prix」. After watching the video, GACKT was moved by the determination in Black Mayonnaise, who were of the same age as him, and was then able to reset his mindset.

As he looked back at those times, GACKT said, 「I’ve watched it at least a hundred times」, 「They helped my feelings. They saved me. By making me laugh」. He then said while flashing a smile, 「If I gave up there, I might’ve given up on being GACKT」. To this, Kosugi Ryuichi exclaimed 「Seriously!?」, while looking genuinely surprised and inspired at the same time.

1. Movie Karanukan Director's Diary
The glittering sea was not shot!
The business of the main crew in midsummer meant that the landscapes had to be left in the hands of others. I found that I didn't convey that my impression regarding water was not included.
I absolutely wanted the shining sea immersed in sunlight.
I want to depict Okinawa as Teada's land, a country of the sea that has live nurtured from the sun.

2. Movie Karanukan Director's Diary
Scenery and sights are more capable of conveying concepts than human drama.

1. Movie Karanukan Director's Diary Additional Film Edit
Absolutely on insistance
heroine Maumi walked on the white, white coral reef
and came to Okinawa for additional filming.
I was brought back to those days in summer.
While having Teada descend in a way that you can't help but exclaim "oh my God!" to
Kimura Suzuka gave us a great run.

2. Movie Karanukan Director's Diary
All the additional landscape shots from the perspective of Teada.
I myself aim to get the convincing shots be it dawn or dusk.
During the filming in July, there was also GACKT's schedule, and times when there isn't any spirit in the landscape scenes. No matter what, I want to shot the God Teada, dawn, and dusk as art.

3. Movie Karanukan Director's Diary
There aren't any beaches more beautiful than Okinawa's.
The lagoons have to be protected.
When working on the editing, I found that there aren't many of those
I was looking for white sand

1. The movie Karanukan is a movie about Teada.
I'm working hard to turn the actual forms of Noro and the Sun God into images.
Nirai Karai is the God that comes from the horizon.
Everything will be focused on Teada who watches from the skies, gentle and strong.

2. The movie Karanukan now has one more wonderful guest voices. The prayers of the Noro, chants, songs, play and more,
wherever and whenever will have Uchina's high, crystal clear voice, calling out, praying, and singing to the skies.
I was charmed by her voice during the "Nirai Kanai Sea of Fire Festival" which will be featured in the movie.
This was announced during the Goza Chanpurur Fest.
Do listen to her real voice in the movie. There will be an announcement during next April's Okinawa Film Festival.
Taira Kozue-san!'s voice will reach Teada, and fly to Nirai Kanai~ Please look forward to it.
