Gackt (band)/YMMV


 * Colbert Bump - Part of the reason he keeps appearing in so many video games and dramas. His appearances in such often results in jumps in ratings, viewer ship, and sales.
 * Crowning Music of Awesome - Pretty much all of Mars, Rebirth and Crescent, especially "Birdcage, Oasis and Oreinji no Tayoui". Single-only songs include mentions also go to "Cube", "Blue" and "Uncertain Memory".
 * Although NEVER to replace Ai Wo Torimodose as Fist Of The North Star's iconic song, the song for New is widely recognized by fans as the best song the series' had since.
 * Memetic Mutation - A dark version of this. Gackt's decade old joke about being a 496 year old vampire has been quoted out of context for so long that even presumably legitimate news sources have treated this as a serious belief of his. He has since corrected this at the Nemuri Kyoshiro press conference, where he released his actual age to the public so the joke would die.
 * Also, within the fandom, his love of Hyde, "fiyaa" and his unceasing use of the word dakishimete in nearly every song he has ever written are memes.
 * ''"I need joh fiyaa fiyaa fiyaa to keep me wahm / I gah too fill za fiyaa / Tu keep me wahm, I gah to feel it...fiyaaaaaa!!"
 * Memetic Sex God - He's been voted Japan's sexiest man, best looking in a suit, best looking in a kimono, best looking in a tuxedo and best looking as a samurai.
