GACKT OFFICIAL WEIBO - AUG 27 2017

GACKT Official Weibo update. Translation below:

I’m leaving from Narita today.

Because I lost my passport,
I had to head to the airport early and re-register for the automatic gates.
But,
I’ve always thought that this is odd but,
why doesn’t everyone just register for the automatic gates?
Even if it takes longer than that, you’ll be done within 5 minutes.
I recommend this to everyone who has yet to register for this.
Foreigners can register for Japan’s automatic gates too,
it’s an exceptionally kind gesture.
Most of the time, in other countries, foreigners basically cannot apply for these automatic gates.
Since you won’t have to queue up for that troublesome line,
you’ll be able to plan your schedule too.

As it was almost time for boarding, I headed to the boarding gate.
The sight of the passenger in front of me with sunglasses on is funny.
I think he’s probably become used to flying or
it’s a comfortable look for him.

Upon boarding the plane, I started working.
Recently, the internet connection has improved too, and it’s now possible to carry out what you would on the ground in the sky too.
With that, it’s become possible to work in the plane so
I ended up staying awake the whole time and working.

This time, the customs at Los Angeles was terrible.
I got picked at customs and I ended up with all my baggage opened up.

After getting stopped at customs for around an hour, I finally got out of the airport,
got into the car that came to fetch me, and headed to the hotel.
I’m exhausted…

I’ll take a little nap when I get to the hotel.
I no longer know how many hours I’ve been awake for.
Jet lag is scary…
