The MALICE MIZER Iceberg

[@natii10]

Malice Mizer is definitely one of the most interesting bands ever in my opinion. Their theatrical performances are unmatched, i don’t think there will ever be another band like that, they were special!

[@assiend]

Lareine/Versailles are also really good, almost up there with the quality and vibe (but with not as much theatrics) since they were roadies (students?) of MM❤

[@Tomie-Sarahketh]

Since my granddaughter introduced me to Malice Mizer in January of 2024, I cannot get enough of their music, their videos, their theatrical performances and pictures of them. I love them and everything about them. I listen to their music and dance everyday. This band brings me more joy than any other band has in my life. They are wonderful musicians, talented and gorgeous. I will be 74 in December and plan to learn everything I can about Malice Mizer. I am getting into both Moi Dix Mois (Mana Sama’s current solo project) and ZIZ (Kozi’s current band). I love all the fans of these three bands. We share a love for MM that is forever! Thank you for everyone who shares everything MM. 🎶💕🎶💕🎶💕🎶💕🎶💕🎶

One of my biggest regrets ever is not being born earlier and in japan to watch them bro 😭😭

[@liamwright3782]

Can’t regret something you have no control over bro ❤️

[@mewowow]

@@liamwright3782 I said it in a humoristic way but thank you anyways!! Thats something that I still need to remind myself from time to time

Real 😢

[@Tomie-Sarahketh]

I am sad to have missed seeing MM live. So I take great enjoyment in watching them daily in all these videos I find online. ❤😊❤😊❤😊❤😊❤😊❤

[@2ndGale]

The Gackt disrespecting Kami thing is highly controversial since the two were very good friends. There are (rare) clips of Gackt and Kami imitating one another and pictures of Gackt with Kami's parents. The two were fairly fond of each other. It's also funny that everyone hates Gackt because every vocalist pulled a Gackt in some shape or form throughout MM's career.

[@philipkarovski281]

He is only hated because he managed to become much more successful than MM

[@TheoRae8289]

This

[@Yuunjae]

I don’t personally hate him but there is this one interview of him kinda being rude about malice mizer by the anime man he was saying how he doesn’t remember any of the members or how many there were and then he was talking about Kami’s passing and the interviewer laughed and said as to my knowledge, none of them are dead, and gackt never corrected him at all and they just laughed awkwardly I found that very hurtful

[@Yuunjae]

I’m also aware he’s not a serious person at all and he’s always joking and being sarcastic but idk it rubbed me the wrong way how he never said anything to the interviewer correcting him on Kami’s death and allowing him to laugh about it

[@2ndGale]

@@Yuunjae I don't think he really meant ill of it, and I doubt Mana, Yu~Ki, or Kozi really cared either. He's spoken very fondly of Malice Mizer in the past but he was essentially trolling The Anime Man throughout the entire interview and just going with everything he was saying (even if it was false. This is actually somewhat common behavior in Japan AFAIK. There's a word for it to but I can't recall).

[@serenityisme]

the klaha pls come out of hiding video is CRAZYYYYYY

[@silv3rrrrrr]

The amounts of times ive stumbled across cantavandas channel is way too much

[@silv3rrrrrr]

Also, 18:01 I remember someone translating some type of magazine which had an interview with Malice Mizer members. I remember one of the questions was asking if they had a fetish and I think one of the members saying "eyes"

[@brifyjek]

@@silv3rrrrrr Yup, I've seen it. Kozi said eyeballs, Mana said eyes, Yuki said veins and Klaha said chests.

[@silv3rrrrrr]

@@brifyjek ah I didn't know if you saw it because I didn't hear you talk about the magazine

[@brifyjek]

@@silv3rrrrrr I didn't mention it cus I think they were just messing around like they always did in their interviews. It's just not enough to prove anything. But yeah, I think I should have mentioned it lol

[@silv3rrrrrr]

@@brifyjek makes sense

[@Meefehyjkoygsww]

they were truly a supergroup. No matter who was doing the vocals at the time. There will never ever be another band like malice mizer

[@meatmeat09]

1) for the new fans, kami was never gay, even if he was, he would never say that publicly to cause a huge mess and drown malice mizer reputation; 2) mother of life does not ship overseas, stay thirsty; 3) gackt is not hated by everyone, more like "disliked" cuz he be weird af; 4) tetsu is active in music industry, mans still slayin; 5) kozi is not a creep, i promise, he was born this way; 6) mana is our god of everything and he cooks the best meals = malice mizer approved; 7) gackt showed kamis grave many time, he has no remorse whatsoever, but sakura posts it too; 8) illuminati is a underconcept for malice mizer concept "what is human", that pv shows human's desires and side effects; 9) klaha as rumores lives in US and still doesn't participate in presidental voting; 10) gackt was the one who left malice mizer because he wasn't feeling the vibe anymore live laugh love malice mizer

[@brifyjek]

I'd bet my ass that the Klaha US rumor isn't true at all. If I recall correctly, it started on a Facebook page of a fake school. I think he's living a quiet life in Japan, probably has a wife and kids. I have social anxiety so I kinda relate to him lol

[@meatmeat09]

@@brifyjek i never believed in that either. klaha always seemed such a dad to me, probably is happy and thriving. being a music artist is fun, but the fame that comes along with it.. naahh, i think it was too much for him. anywayz, i hope he is safe and sound.

[@xerodelacroix5552]

Nah, Kami's family and Kozi definitely hate Gackt. I dislike him, but it's less hate and more like watching a hilarious trainwreck.

[@meatmeat09]

@@xerodelacroix5552 Kami's family doesn't hate Gackt, what are you even talking about. Gackt visit his grave and his family twice a year. They accepted his apology.

[@xerodelacroix5552]

@@meatmeat09 Last I heard, he had pissed them off again by streaming the location...again.

[@kuromi2880]

As a semi-new fan i really appreciate this 😭

[@Varlen_86]

This brings back so many memories. Kami was incredibly beautiful, his passing was a real shame. One intresting thing is that Beast of Blood was like a prototype of what Moi Dix Mois turned out to be

[@winstonlanda7731]

Im noticing theres a surge of younger fans. As an OG fan, it makes happy to see you youngsters getting into the good stuff. Have yall tried X Japan or L'arc en Ciel yet?

[@SharonMECR]

I'm sorry but that has to be the worst example of what Gakupo can do and sounds like 🤣 I'm in tears lol

[@Iluvvivi]

catboy mana is so iconic

[@stevenconrady1990]

I could see the whole Mana putting a “curse” upon Klaha to be possibly true. Mana being into black magic doesn’t surprise me at all.

[@yaoibookclub100]

I've liked their music for a while now, but I am not really the type to research band members on my own so I learned a lot! This is going to sound really dumb but I always assumed the band had a female member since Mana is often wearing a dress in the band's pictures. Thanks for the video :3

[@akameborger]

u kicked off the video with literally my favorite moment in any malice mizer song ily and im so happy to still see more malice mizer content. thank youuuuuu

[@brifyjek]

that's my favorite moment as well lol

[@gooseluck3269]

The fact that Punk Rock MBA labeled this beautiful band “objectively bad” will forever haunt me, there is so little to hate about this band, and yet somehow so many people still find a way

Thank you ♥

[@auroreboreale69]

thank you for this !! I was a big fan of them 16 years ago and then I carried on other interests, jsut got back into them and I realized how little I actually knew...because at the time there were no informative videos like yours! and no translated videos either ! (I don't speak japanese) I realized how since lockdowns there is a revival of MALICE MIZER interest, new contents (like Mana cooking on the MmM channel, which I never imagined would be possible at the time!) and I love it! there are so many infos about them everywhere, and on social networks too (there were barely a thing at the time I was a fan)! also bless Cantavanda for having uploaded HD videos of the band, which we barely had at the time ;w;

Great video! I also became friends with Catanvanda because of his connections to the band and all their PV stuff. Maybe one day I'll make it into one of these videos as one of the contributers to the visual kei and malice mizer community.

[@riskybitness]

The Gackt interview here he says he "mourns the passing" of the former band members was interesting. I may be stating the obvious but it sounded to me like he was praising them as artists but as people they're dead to him. I guess they haven't talked about it publicly but there must have been some kind of falling out behind the scenes that over 20 years later he still hasn't forgiven them. I'm happy that I still have the music on CD. Tetsu's songs are awesome and he doesn't get nearly enough credit. Memoire is a great record.

bro, great video, but you gotta improve your mic quality, sound mixing, and speak more clearly. It was really hard to understand you many times throughout the vid.

Yup, I'm aware of those problems. Can't afford anything better as of now, unfortunately. And it's quite hard for me to speak to a mic because of my anxiety. But the more I speak, the more comfortable I feel.
