This is it. The last five pages of the MOON PROJECT Document Book The Air Moon. It's taken me just shy of six years' worth of spare time to complete this by myself. Not that I spent every moment of my spare time doing this, but still. I never would have guessed the circumstances under …
This is the continuation and conclusion of the unpublished post-Jōgen no Tsuki interview started in the first part of this chapter. For earlier portions, please see the Table of Contents. ☆ —Getting back to this tour, what venue was the most memorable for you? Osaka. Because before I even got up on stage, I felt how …

お久しぶり！It's been a long time, O Readers. A belated Happy Winter Solstice, Happy Festivus, Happy Emperor's Birthday (or did it switch to the new Emperor's already?), Merry Christmas, Happy Hanukkah, and Happy Kwanzaa! When GACKT announced the KHAOS tour back in September, I started making plans to go. Some of the tour dates overlapped with …

This is it, the final part of Chapter 6! Here's the Table of Contents for earlier portions. ☆ July 5, 2003 Yokohama Arena (First Day) "I've set up many doors that lead to me, so you can get to know me. But I don't want people looking for the exit right after stepping through." Appearing …

At this point, it's been 20 years, but it was only 4 years at the time this part of The Air Moon was written. It makes me realize how raw the feelings still must have been. For any new readers, here is the Table of Contents. ☆ June 22, 2003 Makomanai Ice Arena Gackt, who …
Can't believe I've had this in my drafts since January. (^_^;) At the time, I was wondering if GACKT would mark his 20th anniversary as a solo artist with a tour, perhaps Best of the Best Vol. II, since he's only put out one single since LAST MOON. As it doesn't seem like he'll do …
To whoever is out there still reading this, a belated Happy Hanukkah, Winter Solstice, & Emperor's Birthday; Merry Christmas, Happy Festivus, and Happy Any Other Holidays. To any new readers, here's the Table of Contents for the previous parts. ☆ May 31, 2003 Nippon Budōkan (Third Day) We did an interview for uv magazine immediately …
Let's just get right to it, shall we? ☆ May 9-10, 2003, Nippon Budōkan (First & Second Days) This was Gackt's first time putting on a concert at the Nippon Budōkan since going solo. It would also be the first time there's a show at a large Tokyo venue just one week after the start …
It was a bit hard to keep my concentration up to get through this translation, but I'm trying to do like that one lady told Picard and "Never give up [my] music." (A gingerbread cookie to whoever gets the reference and can cite season & episode number. Ahaha...) It didn't help that I recently got …
I wasn't going to update this until around Thanksgiving, but since Chapter 5 is about MOON CHILD and October is the season for vampires, I figured it would be most appropriate to do this now. While it is a relatively short chapter at just 18 pages, I don't have time to do it all at …
