GACKT Official Blog update. Translation below:

I did my training this morning as well.
I woke up pretty well.

After completing my daily training (home training)
I started my body’s engine..
I squeezed my body without an issue,
well,
compared to other people who are of the same age group as me,
I guess I’m pretty well built.

I headed towards the venue for the press event.
This time,
because of a press event for Metal Muscle HMB,
and because I’m also the promotional figure for it,
I will be taking part in this press event.

In the first place, the existence of HMB is known but
what’s available on the market is only those in powder form, which is difficult to consume,
and those that are tablets are quite big
so there weren’t really any good products.

So, this project started when I casually
mentioned to the president of this company, Yamashita-kun
what about making such a supplement.

This Metal Muscle HMB should be understood as something
that boosts the effects
from the results of training
and helps to build muscles faster.

『There’s no such thing as such an ideal supplement right?
If it’s really that good,
I’ll be it’s promotional figure though?』

I said,
and threw the idea at president Yamashita-kun, to which

『Understood! I’ll definitely make the best product ever!』

was his answer. Well
it started with something like that.

When I actually tried using it
it was pretty effective so
as promised, I approved the decision to let them use me as their promotional figure.

This time,
with my training friends,
who have also been using Metal Muscle HMB
and monitoring the effects during these past 2 months,
we’ll be going up on stage together.

There were also more reporters gathered there than we expected,
and my training members got nervous.

I went up with my usual pace,
and spoke about how I felt when using it, and how I trained among other things.

My training efficiency has actually improved tremendously too.
With just around 30 minutes of trianing a day in the morning
and this Metal Muscle HMB,
I was able to shrink my body much more than I did in the past,
and on top of that, I was able to build the muscles I wanted in the areas I wanted.

Of course, there will be difference experienced between people but
at the very least, everyone who used it
had the unanimous opinion that efficiency was greatly improved.

Each of members of team GACKT removed their shirts
and showed their bodies.

When they say each pf their bodies, cheers rose up.
To me, it’s the kind of body that I’m used to seeing but
the reactions from the reporters who were gathered was exceptionally funny.

Maybe it’s because
they didn’t expect that it would really be this effective.

Just like that
after my stage greeting, I went for an interview.

Then,
I arm wrestled with a staff from their company
who was also training his body.

After that, without exiting the venue,
I had meeting after meeting,
and finished 3 meetings in around 4 hours.

GACKT OFFICIAL BLOG, GACKT, GACKT Italia, GACKT 2017, GACKT translation

I had my meetings until the very last minute
when I had to move off to another studio for voice recording for a movie.

GACKT OFFICIAL BLOG, GACKT, GACKT Italia, GACKT 2017, GACKT translation

It’s a recording for the movie 【Karanukan】, that was filmed last summer.
Gathered with the film crew that I’ve become familiar with,
a lot of nostalgic scenes flew out from my memories.

GACKT OFFICIAL BLOG, GACKT, GACKT Italia, GACKT 2017, GACKT translation

The voice recording ended smoothly but
I heard the editing for the movie has been difficult.

They had to desperately push through with editing
to make it in time for the Okinawa film festival.

I’m looking forward to finding out what kind of movie it will become.

Honestly,
I don’t know if it will be interesting or not at all but
without a doubt, you can look forward to the never-before-seen
expansive scenery and the unique world view from Okinawa.

The footage is exceptionally beautiful.

Even so…
My stay in Japan has really been busy after all..
At this rate, it might be impossible to go and look at the cherry blossoms.

Mm, I wanna see the cherry blossoms
