Jiji Press Youtube Channel. New video from today’s Tonde Saitama Premiere, translation below

The two lead stars, Nikaido Fumi-san and GACKT-san, appeared at the Tonde Saitama movie Japan premier. Tonde Saitama is a live adaptation of Maya Mineo-san’s popular original work of the same name. It tells of a story of revolution and love between the son of the governor of Tokyo and the transfer student from America who has returned to Japan with a comedic touch. Of his first time working with Kyomoto Masaki, GACKT commented, “I was acquainted with Kyomoto-san’s make-up artist and I heard about him from there, so I was looking forward to meeting him”. He intended to go to Kyomoto’s dressing room to greet him, but “He said to me ‘Nice to finally get the chance to meet you’, and right after that, he said, ‘But don’t we belong to the same genre!”… and without thinking, I replied ‘We are?’ “. His conversation roused the audience.
