I have to agree with you. Everyone is custom made for some special thing only they can do. I just want, so badly, as you do, to find it as Gackt has found his. Just as I want to help just One other person even as Gackt has helped me. It's amazing to see how conscious he is of seeking the meaning in his life and trying to fulfill it.

Awesome job on this translation! I love reading his thoughts on his dual nature. The images bit is also very familiar... that's how I write-- random, sudden images, or a random character voice breaking into my thoughts. At least I'm not the only one ^^

So much is rattling around in my head after reading it, but I'm not stringing thoughts together well right now. I bet you can guess why ^^;;;

It's amazing to see how conscious he is of seeking the meaning in his life and trying to fulfill it.

It really is, and it's so inspiring. Such great motivation to keep us going, isn't it?

Thanks! ^^ I'm glad you enjoyed reading it. Seems like a lot of people have the same thing happen where they see/hear sudden thoughts. I wonder what that's like.

Yup, I know exactly why!! *puts you to bed* XD

[gekka_no_neko]

Nope, you are not odd, and it seems like everyone else experiences the same thing! How awesome is that? :D

Hahaha!! I don't think he'd take you up such an offer. ^^

That is so awesome how he takes the idea further than his music and into novels, movies, etc. As you said, an image comes into mind while listening to his music, but seeing his images is even better!

That was interesting how he talked about the album cover. I've always thought of it like he explains it, but I never put any real thought into what it has to do with the theme. Hmm...*wonders*

Hmm...Gackt zoning out. He seems to do that lots, huh? ^^ I think I have a tendency to do that too, but I never thought of any of the images being a part of my existence! That's a rather interesting concept!

Thank you for the translations! ^^

[gekka_no_neko]

I haven't put enough thought into the album cover and how it fits in either, but now I want to! I also need to really look at the lyrics. ^^

Yeah you're right, he does zone out a lot. You get images too? Seems like that happens to everyone! It's really fascinating.

You're welcome! :D

Hahaha, he has the Achilles' Heel XD Er, Sole XD

I go through that exact same thing, "zoning out" but seeing images as you do. It's daydreaming, where you partly control what you are seeing, sometimes. Other times you have no control and they just appear to you. I used to write lots and lots of stories (most of them I've not written down because they are just.. too extensive @@) but they are still in my head and sometimes, more images will come, even when you think you've had enough. It's like a play acting out in your mind... so I think I can precisely relate to what Gackt is talking about.

Hmm, maybe I should start writing again :P GACKT GIVES MIND POWER!! *eats Diabolos Wheaties*

[gekka_no_neko]

XD XD Yup!!

Wow, that is really interesting! So far, everyone has said the same thing happens to them too. But it sounds like your stories were pretty extensive.

Aww, can I have some of your Diabolos Wheaties? I want that mind power too!! XD

[fluffyjuney]

Of course you can have my Diabolos Wheaties ^^

XD What a strange thing to say... O_o

[gekka_no_neko]

Woohooo! Thanks~

*munches on Diabolos Wheaties and waits for visions to descend* :D

*_*~ thank u!

[vanilla_girl_09]

*Triumphant evil laughter* See people act like you are so stupid to zone out or daydream but that is not always the case! If I could record the stuff that goes through my mind! Even on one average day I could fill warehouses with my imaginative thoughts

Re: *_*~ thank u!

[gekka_no_neko]

So it happens to you too?! Wow, and you went through so much at a young age. I can see how you would relate to what Gackt has said in this interview. I think it's really great how he put it, that there has to be meaning in it for it to happen. And to preserve those images because it does have meaning.

I'm really happy that I was able to bring his words to you through this translation. This is exactly why I do it!! For people like you. :D
