Yet another Gackt "set" by me. :)

Post by NallOne »

It's not really a set yet, as I haven't made a matching avatar. I'm not even sure if I will. I really liked making this sig as I knew as I was making it I was going to have this specific part (well, translations of a part) of my favorite song by Gackt - "Seki~rei". (I think that specific line is taken from the Ainu creation myth, in witch the God Kamui sent a wagtail (sekirei) down to create a world in which beings could live in. I love that story, and also love the song. There might not even be an actual connection for all I know, though. ^^; )

Anyway, on to the sig itself:

As for my own personal critique: The border is too small to even see, the placement of "Gackt" is horrible, and I don't like any of the fonts I used except for the one for the lyric. x_x It's not like I don't have many to choose from, I have well over 3000 fonts. I just can never find one I like. Maybe the enormous amount of fonts is part of the problem. ::makes mental note to go in and delete all the ones he doesn't like::

As usual, comments and constructive criticism always appreciated! :D

I really like the red, and I think the pics you have of Gackt are sweet. But I do agree with you on the fonts. I think possibly using the same or close to the same fonts as in the last sig would look perfect. I think the border makes little difference though.

Seki-rei is probably my favorite song with a close following of: Wasure Nai Kara, Papa lapped a pap lopped, and U+K ... Oh I can't leave Vanilla out due to it's sentimental value... it was the first of his solo PVs I saw. I first saw him in a Malice Mizer vid... and loved him right away... I didn't however stay a MM fan other than "Color Me Blood Red" I couldn't get into their music...

ANYwho, sorry about that! I still like the sig and I'll look forward to seeing many more with yummy Gackt! ^^y

Hehe, thanks for the comments. XD

Yeah, I only got into MM after I got into Gackt, and I really don't like them without him. The live video of their Syunikiss performance is GODLY. Gackt is so awesome in it.

Vanilla is alright, but it freaks me out whenever I hear it because it makes me think of the live version I saw. (In which Gackt basically dryhumps the whole of his band mates on stage. >_<)

Hmm, I've never heard of Syunikiss, but since you think it's good could you suggest where I might obtain a copy of the vid to watch? Aw, well yeah Gackt and his fanservice ^^ Guess it's for the girls though. I don't really mind either way ^^ I really like the video though. Unfortunately, most of his vids are kinda boring :\ I love the music though.

Have you seen his fujifilm commercials? They're hilarious :)

Hehe, yeah most of his videos do bore me. (Although I'd rather be bored by symbolism like in his old videos than bored by the mainstream pop-ness of his newer ones.) I really love his videos for Seki~rei and Miserable though.

As for where to find the video - It's on a DVD of his videos and live performances that a friend gave to me. I'm sure you could find it online somewhere, although probably using a P2P program of some kind.

*Gasp!* GACKT!!!!! *drools*

My fav song of his HAS to be "Last Song"! Usually when I'm down or something I turn that on and it cheers me up (and yes I have read the lyrics to it)
