All their answers together are what make it so good, though!
FT: Are there any Buck-Tick songs you would recommend as a lullaby?
Imai: Are there any?
Hoshino: Sorry, I don’t think there are.
Yagami: Solaris.
Higuchi: Cosmos!
Our beloved troll: Mudai.

While I'm afraid I don't have time to write out a full review at the moment, I feel compelled to remind folks that there are still copies of the Ongaku to Hito Sakurai Atsushi Special Issue available in the official web shop. It's a high quality issue with glossy photos and sturdy paper, very well worth the cost and shipping. Additionally, as an official print, this purchase supports the band, the photographers and the interviewers who kindly brought out the best of Sakurai for us.

Buck-Tick Product Review: Gustave 2-Way Mini Backpack
Imai's featured product for the 2023 Day in Question Buck-Tick Phenomenon concert, fashioned after Imai's black, red, and leopard print guitar of the same name.
The vinyl-like polyester material is easy to keep clean. There's slight hooding over the zipper to the main pouch, providing weather protection from rain and snow. The front pouch may be more vulnerable, however.
The 2-way feature: The straps can both be clipped to one side of the back and zipped together to sling over one should or or across the chest, or, left unzipped, they can be clipped one to each side for backpack-style wear.
The straps slide smoothly—too smoothly—and can easily get twisted or loosened. If you find a particular length is perfect for you and have no desire to adjust it in the future, you may want to consider sewing the overlapping sections of the straps to secure them.
There's a bit of reinforced padding on the bottom and back side of the main pouch to protect the contents.
The backside has an open pocket. An A5 size notebook can fit (see photo), though it overtakes the top corners of the purse.
The front pouch is too small for most phones, even for my iPhone 13 Mini. (Personally, I tend to keep mine in the main or back pocket.)
The main pouch is quite spacious, if too short for the A5 notebook. It easily fits Japanese and American mass market paperbacks, as well as a full length wallet and phone, with room to spare (see photo). My full-sized head phones fit if I leave out the books. Moreover, the structure of the bag holds up well, where my other store-bough backpack-style purses tend to collapse.
I tend to use this purse only for nights out with friends, so I haven't given it a full test of day-to-day wear and tear. It doesn't feel especially delicate, but neither does it feel tough enough that I wouldn't worry about scratching the material.
I always get compliments on the style, and the Lingua Sounda logo on the front has been an ice breaker to talk about the band without fangirling too aggressively.
I favor backpack-style purses, so it's a good match for me, and I'm glad I got it. If you're on the fence, you may wish to wait to see if it lasts long enough to go on sale, but I wouldn't pass it up if the price does drop.
At the time of this writing, Gustave is still available for general sale in the Buck-Tick web shop for 12,000 JPY.

The world is objectively better because he was here❤️🩹
Toshiya honoring Atsushi Sakurai during this tour was so heartwarming I can't even
So it sounds like following Atsushi's sudden death in October, Toshiya inherited... a pair of shoes.
Fun fact: Atsushi Sakurai and Toshiya were roughly the same height, so my guess is that they wore the same shoe size.
Two weeks ago, before leaving Japan, our darling bassist posted this picture of his shoes waiting at an airport.
The caption read only "Traveling together. Let's go."
We all thought the "together" meant "as a band". With Dir en Grey. All the greys boarding the same Dir en Plane.
Right? Nope. There was more to it.
At the end of the tour, he posted a picture of his feet wearing the same shoes. This time, the caption read:
"We ended the European Tour, and we are about to come back to Japan. I traveled around Poland, France, England and Germany in these shoes, which I got as memento of you. I was happy when I saw a fan wearing your T-shirt in London. Let's go back together to Japan, Sakurai, in this season when cherry blossoms bloom."
I'm not crying, you're crying. The world is objectively worse with this guy gone.
#love this story#no offense to OP with my addition#following Imai’s instruction from The Phenomenon#don’t so much mourn that he is gone as celebrate that he was

He was always so intriguing in terms of thoughts and beauty but to me the pinnacle of fascination was during his 50s and maybe because he started to act as he pleased without caring, wearing more flamboyant clothes, experimenting with the lyrics, expressing much more on stage, and sharing his raw ideas during interviews. That got me.
