Line 15:
* [[Epic Rocking]]: Cube, Birdcage, Blue, Uncertain Memory, Dybukk, Secret Garden and many others.
* [[Genre Shift]]: Gackt's early albums (and recent singles) tend to be a music version of this. A single album can have a combination of rock, pop, techno, ska, rap, r&b, metal and whatever else Gackt feels at the moment. Even singles will often have contrasting songs on them.
* [[Genre Roulette]]: Gackt is a rock artist, but what genre of music is going to be on his albums and singles is random at best. Some songs such as Cube, Oasis, Uncertain Memory and Secret Garden don't even resemble any discernible genre. Songs like these are simply referred to by fans as Gackt rock.
* [[Intercourse with You]]: "Koukuma Heaven", "Vanilla", and "Dispar" are explicit. "Papa Lapped a Pap Lopped" and "Speed Master" are more ambiguous.
* [[Neoclassical Punk Zydeco Rockabilly]] - Many of his songs, especially "Dybbuk", "Lost Angels", "Memories" and "Ghost". In recent interviews he's even talked about taking this further by combining rock, classical European, traditional Japanese and various other Asian music styles in his newer work.

=== Gackt's concerts provide examples of: ===
* [[AIA.I. Is a Crapshoot]]: Averted. The Ghosts are the heroes.
* [[Badass Longcoat]]: He wears these during many of his concerts.
* [[Cluster F-Bomb]]: During every Yellow Fried Chickens live Gackt [[Shirtless Scene|rips off his shirt]] and launches one of these.
Line 31:
* [[Cute Kitten]]: U+K live always features people dressed up in cat costumes.
* [[Fan Service]]:
** Vanilla live is the most famous example. But Kagen no Tsuki, Jougen no Tsuki, and Drug Party had plentiful amounts of this as well.
** Gackt's second Yellow Fried Chickenz tour has taken this to the extreme with fans encouraging him by throwing underwear, hand cuffs, and ''whips'' on stage for Gackt and his band to play with.
* [[Japanese Vampire]]: The entire Moon Saga.
* [[Kill'Em All]]: "Diabolos" and "Requiem et Reminiscence II" ends with all the characters dying.
