I vote Mana. Everyone has pretty much stated my reasons already, so I won't type them all out again and make a lovely long post. Maybe I'm just lazy... :cool:

I do want to add though that it would be interesting if Mana decided to make a Moitie sneaker. XD

Wouldn't the one with the most money be considered the best business man? Cause.. well.. they make the most money out of the group of people.. and business men make money so.. yeah. On that list I'd have to say Gackt for sure.

By that logic Paris Hilton is a better businessman than any of them ;)

Pretty much. Using sex to sell, slapping her name and face on things which gets them sold to a bunch of preteens in various countries that want to be her. It's not just America. Japan is pretty much obsessed with the Hilton sisters. In fact, they're so popular that they're probably as well known and liked as Gackt. Basically, anything she puts herself on has made a ton of money, making her an excellent businessman. She might not be the most intelligent thing, but she comes from a family of rich people. She'd obviously be taught how to market herself to make money.

That IS true...The Hilton sisters have designer hand bags that have been making lots of money in Japan not to mention the Hello Kitty diamond encrusted cellphones.
I don't remember Kisaki having designer handbags XD.

The difference is that Paris Hilton isn't actually running the business herself, which is why I'd put her and Gackt a step below Mana and Kisaki on the business cleverness scale. I think without her hired handlers she wouldn't be nearly so much of a success. They're the ones who are the real smart businessmen, not her specifically.

Which isn't to say they play no role in their own success; the drive for self-promotion is an important part of a business too. :cool:

Gackt is much like Paris Hilton now that I think about it. He's all over the place marketing things. Huge billboards with Gackt, cardboard cut outs. They'd be a strong marketing force together.. Now that would be interesting. All Gackt needs now is a sex tape to leak and the whole world will know his name! Worked for Paris Hilton.

I didn't know who she was until last month, so the world can't know her name...*crawls back under table and plays with her cow*
