GACKT OFFICIAL X - OCT 12 2024 - 2ND UPDATE

GACKT Official X update. Translation below

In recent years, I have been hearing more and more about the passing of great predecessors who led the times.

Of course, people die someday.
That is a reality that cannot be changed.

People I have known and watched since I was young
are completing their missions and leaving.

However, perhaps my antennae have become shorter, but I feel that there are fewer and fewer "overwhelming stars" these days.
Maybe the feeling that if a person is in it, you just have to watch their work is fading.

We live in an age where anyone can easily receive information and works via smartphone or the Internet.
It has become convenient, but it feels like it has become just "consumption."
It is something that is used once, seen, and then it is over, without the opportunity to "experience" it repeatedly.

They say that there is a change of generations, but the great works and achievements left by our predecessors will not fade and will have an impact on the younger generation.

However, nothing remains the same forever.
As we get older and gain more experience, the way we feel about the same work changes.

In particular, the expressions that we artists do are not eternal.
No two concerts are ever the same, and there's no telling how long an artist will be able to perform live.

The same goes for those who are receiving the experience.

Why go to the venue in this age of convenience?

Why go to the cinema rather than just subscribe?

There are emotions that can only be obtained at a venue.

There is an atmosphere that can only be felt there.

When emotions are shared and multiplied, they turn into incredible energy.

Things are finite. If there is a beginning, there will surely be an end.

If you want to go or see something, even if it means making a bit of a stretch, go and experience it.
Because nothing beats the experience.

Another era has come to an end.
For our generation, Oyama-san was the name to remember when we thought of Doraemon.
He had a wonderful voice.
He gave us dreams.
He gave us energy.
I sincerely pray for Oyama-san's soul to rest in peace.

Hmm, I know, I know...
You know what I mean!

What kind of excuse is that?

The number of perverts has never decreased, even since ancient times.

When I was a teenager, I was walking home alone in the summer,
when a middle-aged man wearing a coat came walking towards me from the distance ahead.

I thought, "A long coat in this summer...", but I didn't pay much attention to it since there were so many people around, but then, about 3 meters in front of me, he suddenly opened his coat.
He was naked underneath and suddenly showed me his crotch.

Seeing this, I couldn't help but blurt out,
"It's so small!"

Maybe because he said that, or maybe because he thought I was a woman because of my long hair at the time but realized I was a man, he shyly hid his body and quickly ran away with his legs crossed.

I still don't know what that was about.
Please don't get involved in strange things with strange people.
There are a lot of mysterious cases too.

Life may be longer than we imagine.
We only realize the importance of health after we lose it.
I don't want my fans to spend their later years resenting their past selves.

If you were to live to be 100, how long would you be able to move your body the way you want, and continue doing the things you want to do, with your current lifestyle?

Even if your lifespan is extended, if you can't find joy in your daily life, you're just surviving.

Your future self is nothing more than an extension of your present self.
If you focus on the "now" so that your future self will be grateful to you, your lifestyle will change dramatically.
I want people to become more aware of the importance of seriously thinking about how they can maintain a body that can move without changing, and putting it into practice.

It's available in Australia too lol. It's nice to know that my book has been translated and is available in libraries overseas.
