Well for an update on my problem if anyone cares (since this has materialized into a central post for all those looking for hair advice),

I looked all around (irl) and couldn't find many of the products mentioned, I did find "Got 2B Glued" or whatever. It's sticky, and it holds some part of my hair well, but it doesnt hold EVERYTHING together very well. What I do currently is first go through my hair with got 2 b glued and then reinforce it with my normal Gatsby Wax (which is depleting so I hope to find a longterm solution soon). The two combined work a bit better, but its ridiculous to have to buy and use two products in order to get the effectiveness of one product.

Anybody have any experience with Aquage Transforming Paste? I was also recommended this by a friend. I can't really find anything in any stores or salons so I'm gonna order some of the products I want off the internet.

mess with your hair daily for a bit and eventually it'll take the form you want
i don't do anything with mine and i let it grow to be kind of long and i guess i'm lucky because i think it looks pretty good - ironically it looks bad when i use gel and stuff on it or have greasy hair. it looks smooth, falls nicely, and is kind of spikey looking around my eyes and ears. the only problem i have is people admitting that they thought i looked really depressed or emo before they got to know me =( having a consistent barber, as someone mentioned, is very important if you want to get a specific look. i've had the same one and same look for almost two years, at 25 dollars a haircut around every three months.

the final fantasy and supersaiyan hair is possible: walking by a random barbershop in new york city's chinatown i saw a guy with goku's triangle-spiked hair! the asian guy even had his hair dyed blond and it looks kind of crazy weird on a real person's head X_X but i know it's definitely doable. it was a really well-done copy and i guess is impressive, but the gel cost and maintanence must be insane =)

Have you tried Redken concrete paste? It is a really strong paste, which guarantees maximum hold. http://www.redken.com/products/displayProduct.cfm?p=563

Anybody know where to buy gatsby hair wax online? There aren't really any japanese stores where I live. I saw some on Ebay but shipping was pretty steep and I don't have an ebay account.

Also this is slightly off topic but does anybody know a good conditioner for really really hard and thick hair.

spiker® water-resistant styling glue

This stuff really is glue, you can apply it wet or dry... easier to apply when your hair is slight dampened though. My bro uses this stuff to get the Super Saiyan 23123 look, like 5 inch spikes. I just use it to spike my hair (nothing crazy) and if i use too much, my hair feels like a helmet.
Haven't tried Gatsby though so I can't really compare.

Panorama, you could try with hair clay. It elaves hair dry compared to wax (which leaves it oily in the good way). But some friends use it and told me its stronger.

Dosnt get any better than this:

I've tried a lot but this is the best gel there is. If you can get it in us, get it. (fairly expensive, I pay about $22 per box, but it lasts a while.

Flushing, maybe K-Town... I think. It's about 20$ (whereas it's about 7$ in Japan).

I personally don't like Gatsby, I like a brand called Uno (by Shiseido), it's a higher quality brand, see if you can find that.
