Unlike the last batch of tweets, I actually got these done. I've been feeling really depressed, so I haven't had a lot of motivation to translate anything. But I gathered up enough energy to get this done, so that's a plus. Anyway, enjoy. I'll try to keep myself on top of these things.
Morning. How is everyone doing? I have a press conference in a bit, but I’ve got time during hair and makeup to answer everyone’s tweets. Well, it’s been a little while since I’ve had the time. Let’s see how it is…
USER: MORNINNGGGG!!!!
GACKT: What kind of greeting is that? That’s interesting…
USER: Today’s the press conference. I look forward to seeing it on the news tomorrow! I anticipate your best smile and performance.
GACKT: Yes. From here is the press conference. I’m in a hurry, but I’m glad that everyone is excited for how the play will turn out. It’s going to be a quite innovative play. Come out to see it, it will definitely move you as a result.
USER: Hello, I’m Kyo from Osaka. GACKT, I have a request. Today is my birthday. My two sons are big GACKT fans. If you see this, could you say something so they can see?
GACKT: Of course I’ll see it. Happy birthday. I’m glad I was able to click this out of the waterfall-like comments. I always go to RT something and miss. Today is a propitious day.
USER: Are you about to go on stage?
GACKT: I already did. Yay yay~~. Today is play rehearsals too.
USER: Will you be able to have some grown-up playtime today? Playtime is infinite!!
GACKT: I’ll play no matter how busy I get. If you don’t play, the heart becomes worthless. Sleep might remedy your body’s tiredness, but your heart will always be tired without play. There are too many Japanese people who are tired. We’re such modest people. If we could remember how to play, we would be the best in all the world. Do your best.
USER: Good morning! There’s one week until the Budoukan live. Please do your best during dress rehearsals and live rehearsals. Send me kiai!
GACKT: With the play, the live, the TV drama, and the movie, frankly, I’m going crazy but I motivate myself by saying, “If I can’t do this, how can I call myself top-notch?” Well, the first thing is to do the best live. YFC’s last at the Budoukan. Look forward to 7/4.
USER: Good morning. Have a lovely day.
GACKT: You too. Don’t forget your prettiest smile. Garnish this rotted world with a flower.
USER: I know you’ve been busy, but I’ve been feeling lonely without you on LINE and Twitter. I’m sorry I can’t be patient.
GACKT: But that’s why I’m doing it, right? You’ve been patient. Thanks.
USER: I read about MOON SAGA in the daily newspaper, and your words “Nothing comes out of fighting” left an impression on me. Your words are always impressive.
GACKT: “Nothing comes from fighting.” I really wish from the bottom of my heart that a day comes where there’ll be no fighting in the world. Of course, that just sounds like glossing it over. But if we give up, it really will disappear altogether. I think that if we all can move forward with strong will in our hearts, we can go on without it. Right?
USER: My magnum feels like it’s going to go off. It feels like it’ll fuse with GACKT’s magnum! (This user actually said the Japanese word for “nuclear fusion.”)
GACKT: It won’t fuse. It’d be scary if it did!!!
USER: Are you going to be cool, hot, and decisive during the press conference?
GACKT: Of course. Thanks. Well, I’m always hot hot. Steaming hot.
USER: Sleepy… I’m sleepy.
GACKT: Me too. It’s because I haven’t slept at all. Well, there are things more important than sleeping, so I don’t mind much. You can blow off sleepiness with kiai. Kiai, it’s kiai.
USER: What hairstyle and makeup do you have?
GACKT: It’s going to be on TV, isn’t it? Watch it. Watch it for me.
USER: I’m excited for the Sengoku Basara drama!!!!!!!!
GACKT: Thanks. The theme song “HAKURO” came out pretty awesome. Look forward to it. It’ll move your heart. You’ll get goosebumps. It’s a pretty difficult song. It’s loaded with the GACKT world.
NOTE: Hakuro (白露) means like, “glistening dew” or “white dew.”
USER: It looks like you’ll get asked questions about things not related to the play.
GACKT: I really don’t care. Bring it!
USER: You look like you’d pilot a Gundam, but are you a Newtype?
GACKT: I don’t pilot. I’m a Zeon person. I only ride Sazabi. Operability is important. Also mobile suits and women.
USER: It’s a little early, but happy birthday!!
GACKT: It’s too early. Tell me on 7/4. Tell me at Budoukan.
USER: I’m awkward and I can’t read people’s feelings. How can I understand them?
GACKT: The feelings and hearts of people can’t be easily read. Or rather, isn’t it that we are nicer to people because we can’t read them? The most dangerous thing is thinking that you’ve got the other person all figured out. It’s because you don’t understand the other person that you put in the endeavor. It’s how kindness is handed down. Right?
USER: My everyday club activities are harsh. Please give me an encouraging message!
GACKT: Hey hey, are you just going to let that get to you? You lack kiai. Put kiai into it and run ten kilometers!!!!
USER: I watched Moon Child. It was sad how it ended with everyone not finding happiness.
GACKT: Yoshitsune Hiden is the same, but the important things are those that get touched by those works and become happy. What do you need to be happy? Because like this, there is a reason for my being alive if you can sense through the works what has prevented you from being happy.
USER: Do you like girls that are good at sex?
GACKT: It’s awesome, right? I say, “Thank you for meeting me.” I haven’t found a girl like that though.
I wonder if I should go… I wonder if it’s time.
USER: History would have changed if you piloted Zeong, huh?
GACKT: Zeong? Zeong sleeps in my garage. In the end, a year went by without using him in the war. I’m disappointed.
USER: Today is MIKA from The Boss’s birthday. Please congratulate him!!
GACKT: I’ll tell him later. Thanks for telling me.
Well then, I’ll get going. The Yoshitsune Hiden press conference is about to start. Look forward to it. It starts on July 15th, so come see it. It’s hot again today, but everyone color the day with your best smiles. “There’s not an unneeded smile in this world.” Don’t forget these words. Okay then, adios!!!
