* When Közi was still a cute(?) little child he would call his parents by saying "Hey! You!" xD
* When he was young, Közi listened to David Bowie a lot.
* It seems he can sing along with old anime songs very well ^_^
* Durong the Malice Mizer Voyage time he was rarely seen withouth bondage clothind and assecoires ^^"
* He really has a fixation on eyeballs. In the illuminati pv some girls are forcing him to eat eyeballs and on several pictures he got eyeballs in his mouth (ieuw >_<"). He also has a ring with an eyeball-thingy on it!
* When Közi was still at Malice Mizer he used to wear clowndoll-like costumes with huge ruffs.He's also well known for making the movements of a marionette.

Közi's live:
As a child Közi played the piano because his parents wanted him to, they both were music teachers. In high school Közi started with playing bass because one of his friends played the guitar. According to himself he was a very naughty child. He skipped school so he could go to the beach, steal bikes or throw rocks at fisherman (naughty you! ^o^).
When Közi was 16 years old he abandoned school and went to Tokyo. He said he knew that if he wanted to be a musician, he had to go to Tokyo. His parents didn't understand him then but now they do.
Közi went to Tokyo with another friend, he knew nobody there and they slept in a car for three months because they run out of money. According to him he met several people there who brought him back to music.
Közi listened to a lot of music, trying to find a style which fits him but he said it was Mana-sama who inspired Közi (according to him, his style has a 'painting-like visual element'). When he went over to Mana-sama's house he decided that Mana-sama was really interesting (after he saw Mana-sama's collection of horror videotapes ^^"). He said that Mana-sama was exclusive and wouldn't join conversations he wasn't interested in, and he also came to Tokyo to become a musician. Later he called his meeting with Mana-sama "fate".
In Tokyo Közi joined several groups, where after he formed Malice Mizer together with Mana-sama. After almost ten years of being famous Malice Mizer broke-up. Luckily Közi didn't leave the music world. He joined Eve of destiny and started a solo project. Unfortunately Eve of Destiny "dissapeared" after 2004. In September 2009 he started a new band, DALLE. Unfortunately their official site is offline again and nothing has been heard from them after their first live performances.
