Husband Speaks Out -
While bedridden and on hiatus from filming "Fly Me To Saitama"...
GACKT WAS PUTTING ON A ONE-MAN PRODUCTION OF "FLY ME TO ADULTERY"

"If he thinks he can just come on back to television after he recovers, he's got another think coming. He's got to man up and apologize for his 'crimes'."
So says Chubu-region company owner, Mr. A. The target of his wrath: musician GACKT (48 ).
As reported in the sporting papers, GACKT announced a halt to activities in September of this year (2021). "On August 6, GACKT left Cyprus, where he had been working, and returned to Japan due to a health crisis. A chronic disease of the nervous system flared up, severely impacting his ability to speak, it was said.
His physical condition deteriorated to the point that he lost 10 kg in three weeks. Around that same time, GACKT was claiming "Covid is just a cold". Rumor has it he was saying "I got infected with covid after my return to Japan, but of course I should keep that quiet, right?"
Principal photography for the sequel to "Fly Me To Saitama", in which GACKT had been starring, was suspended. There are currently no plans to resume, but the film originally scheduled for public release in '22 is urgently looking for new side producers. But what of Gackt himself...?
Let's begin with how GACKT and Mr. A's wife Mrs. B (35) met.
"My wife had been a fan of his for a long time, but on July 4 of last year she sent him a birthday message on Instagram and it seems he personally replied. She was happy and even took a screenshot to show me. But it seems that wasn't the end of it; they continued a correspondence
sub rosa."
Mrs. B, a stylish beauty who resembles one of GACKT's previous love interests Yumiko Shaku (釈由美子), had posted many photos on Instagram of her honeymoon and private dinners with her husband. Moreover, she frequently used phrases like "Thanks, hubby" - at a single glance it would have been clear that this is a married woman.
The first clandestine meeting between the two was on July 14 of this year (2021). At 11PM that night, GACKT invited Mrs. B to meet him at the famous cafe "F" in Nagoya. Just before they arrived at the cafe, GACKT turned to her and said: "Hey babe, this place is a drag. Too many people here." At the time GACKT was accompanied by some local Nagoya acquaintances and flunkies - about 4 or 5 people all told.
"This cafe's management agency 'N' has been in charge of supplies for GACKT's events for more than 10 years. A representative of that company collaborated closely with GACKT, he was like a sponsor to them." - An employee of the cafe
"He is simply divine"
As the hour was late, GACKT and Mrs. B instead took his limo back to the Nagoya Marriott Associa hotel, where a room on the upper floors had been prepared for them to
cool their heels.
"That day, after having dinner with a friend of mine, I took the Shinkansen to Tokyo for a business trip. I had heard nothing from my wife but at the time it didn't raise any suspicion with me. However, after various subsequent goings-on, I was gripped with doubt." - Mr. A
The duo's immoral association came to light after another tryst about two months later, toward the end of September.
"The wife and I were supposed to take a trip for four nights starting the 19th of September, but on the morning of the 20th, around 6:30AM her physical condition took a turn for the worse. 'My throat is burning up. My stomach hurts', she said, writhing in agony. She was taken by ambulance to the hospital, where they ran a full battery of tests - blood work, an MRI, and so on - but the results were inconclusive." - Mr. A
Then, Mr. A recalled the trip his wife had taken under an odd pretext.
"Really, two days prior to this (9/17) she said 'I'm going to spend the night at a friend's place in Tokyo' and left the house. From that point on, from 11PM that night to the afternoon of the following day, her second cell phone, which she had taken with her, was always 'out of service' and I couldn't get through. I started worrying that she was in some sort of trouble, or that someone had slipped her a mickey. So I thought I'd use her other phone to try to get in contact with the 'friend'." - Mr. A
Little did he suspect the astonishing reality of the situation he was about to uncover. That day, Mrs. B had messaged her older sister on LINE, telling her "the real situation": that she was in fact staying at GACKT's personal residence.
"This is just between us" [9/17 19:23]
"You know the deal, keep this hush-hush" [9/17 22:52]
And then, about 23 hours later, (9/18 21:33) we see a bunch of messages along the lines of "Ah, what is this... indescribable feeling?"
"He's amazing. I was so close to him yet he seemed so far away."
"He is simply divine."
That's how she expressed her mentality.
At the time, it was 9 days after GACKT had announced a halt to activities. While supposedly convalescing, he was
passing time with Mrs. B at his private residence.
"Later, I confronted my wife with the evidence and she admitted the truth about her stay with a 'friend'. That night I had been burning the midnight oil waiting for any word from her. She told me that GACKT kept waking up and falling back asleep till 2AM, and so since she couldn't sleep she went and surreptitiously snapped a photo in the second sub-basement." - Mr. A
All told, there were five photos on Mrs. B's phone, of a place outfitted like a first-class boutique. In truth, these pictures had been taken by her in the very house of GACKT.
"The House of GACKT is a stately white mansion with four stories and two basements. The four floors above ground are for his office staff and visiting relations. The first basement is for the kitchen, recording studio, etc. Your photos of the dressing room and bath are from the second sub-basement, his private sanctum as it were." - A close associate
There being no wireless reception in the second sub-basement, Mrs. B attempted to ascend to a higher floor, but was stymied because a security code was required to leave the sanctum. When all was said and done, she took her leave of the House of GACKT on the evening of the 18th. We now resume with Mr. A's account:
"About my wife's trips to visit him, she told me that on that day they did not engage in carnal relations, but she admitted that they did when staying at the Marriott hotel."
One of GACKT's former managers, upon hearing this story, sighed and said:
"He hasn't changed a bit. For over 10 years he's been luring in fangirls over SNS and inviting them to his place. Lately, in the age of covid, Instagram is his hunting ground of choice. He puts fangirls' locations into a Google map, saying smugly: 'Look at all these pins. I've got fans everywhere.' When it comes time to communicate directly with one of them, he always uses Telegram, never LINE."
Telegram is a chat app specialized for private communication. Messages can be set to delete themselves after a certain time, automatically destroying any evidence.
When Mrs. B called the telephone number associated with the Telegram account GACKT had used, she got an answering machine with a voice that sounded like GACKT's. We inquired about this with his management office, but were told "The person in charge isn't here", and never received any further response.
On 10/18, Mrs. B sent the following to GACKT:
"My husband found out about last time. He took my phone and found proof of everything. We can't meet again."
However, there was no reply.
Mr. A speaks with undisguised indignation:
"That man who had sexual relations with my wife is irredeemable. Try to understand how much we're suffering as we try to restore the ordinary married life that he shattered. I am prepared to take legal action so that no more people will have to partake in this bitterness."
This was a love affair with grave repercussions. From here on, the courtroom will be the stage for "drastic measures" to play out.
