 As indicate above picture, MANA is male, not female!
MANA is the beautiful guitarist of MALICE MIZER always in color
blue. MANA literally means "Devil Name". While being the leader
of the MM, MANA also has played the female role in the band.
He has been the "Queen, bride, princess, flower girl, hooker (the
pix on the right, from image video "de l'image"), maid". He looks
like female all the time and wears beautiful dresses. He said
putting makeup on to look beautiful and dressing up for a man is
a form of art.
Along with KOZI, MANA used to be the guitarist of the band
"Mirage". Before MM, MANA was heavily into heavy metal rock
(with crazy wild image like colorful spiky hair). Of course, he had
interests in classical music since he's little. His father is a music
teacher and influenced him into classical. He said he regret to
not learned piano like his two younger brothers now. Oh and
even more shocking past of him, he used to like JOHNNY's idols'
groups (ex: pathetic idol groups like Hikaru Genji, Shonen Tai,
SMAP, V6, Tokio) and wanted to be a JOHNNY's boys and
practice dancing (^^;;;;;)
 Although he practiced
JOHNNY's dance before but
that doesn't mean he can
dance (Just like those JOHNNY's). In MM concert, he dance more than
playing instrument (guitar, sometimes keyboard). He dance all the time
and loves to fall into GACKT's arm, or run around the stage and "flirt"
with every member (giving flowers, blowing kisses). He dance quite
awkward, very "MAN", not graceful like a woman (which he suppose to
be). Also his facial expression are always so "cool" too (cool means
literally) So it's really weird.
MANA's interests are walking in the night, collecting movies (esp.
Dracula's film), cooking (esp. good at curry, he loves cooking books
too), music appreciation. He said MALICE MIZER meant to present the
worlds of "Malice and tragedy with dramatic base", medival age
Europe, Classical, and also the world of SHOUJO MANGA (Girl's
comics). |
