GACKT Official Blog update. Translation below:

In the morning, I finished my training,
quickly prepared to go out, and headed to the beach.

Today I was supposed to go and have a look at the land we were going to purchase but since it has been raining these few days, I was told that I can’t go there but…

When we went out to have a look, the weather was unbelievable, and my local partner said

『Among us, a man who brings the sun has arrived!』

with shock. When I looked back, everyone had their hands up so it was a joke.

After buying drinks, we headed towards the sea. Recently I’m really liking the Suburban that I bought here.

Heading out to the sea, the wind feels good as usual. We sped over on a boat and after around 20 minutes, we arrived at the destination. The water was unbelievably crystal clear. Immediately we stepped onto the island for a look.

When I look at the sea
I can clearly see fishes swimming.

The beach was wide too and feels good. If that’s how it is, I think we’ll be able to build a good building here.

I’m getting a good feeling looking at it from afar too. I don’t think anything better than this will appear.

Should we buy it…

Just like that, we returned from the sea and went to eat.
I don’t like chicken. I hate the texture of the meat and the smell but the native chicken here is unbelievably delicious. I’ve never had chicken like this even in local Japanese chicken.
Just how did they make it like this…

I’ll trying to find out about this next time.

I ate around 10 of the chicken I hate each time I come here. In the first place, I’ve never even eaten to this extent…

Due to how delicious it was, my partners, too, quietly ate ferociously from start to end.

Does such quality only exist in such areas after all.

Recently, things with the labels
「natural product」and
「no additives, no artificial colouring」 have finally been distributed around the world but
if you ask me

it becomes a question of

「If that’s the case, just what dangerous things have we been eating thus far then?」.

At a glance, it looks like a sign board with delicious foodstuffs but when you look closer, there’s only a feeling of discomfort.
“Made with real fruits”
Won’t you ask, then just what’s in the normal juices?

Globally, one portion is heading in the right direction that we should go towards but
the market price for things like organic vegetables is so high that it’s out of reach for general consumers.
In other words, for the sake of cheap, mass production, selective breeding is done over and over again,
and growth is promoted with synthetic chemical fertilisers.
As a result of that,
we are indeed able to produce large amounts cheaply
and thus become capable of supplying it.
However,
the price of that is that if we compare the nutritional value of these foods with that of the original fruits and vegetables from decades ago,
the worst of it would have it’s nutritional value dropping to only 0.5% of the original amount.
In other words, there’s no difference between that and eating dregs.
This has become the price that the modern society pays.
Their immunity drops, leading to various allergies occurring,
Right now, diseases are prevalent to the extent that it is not possible to have a natural death.

Just how much must we pay for this price later on?
Will it become something that we keep paying for?

Are the children of the future really going to be alright?
