ItalianoGACKT Official Blog update. Translation below:
I’m not【hooked】, I’m always【serious】! Got it? You fucking nutsack!
Fasting ended today.
Today will be the last day
that everyone gathers in the room in the morning
and trains together like this.
Since the main tournament has ended too,
I decided to head to Seoul and go back to KL a day early.
In the middle of training, Baru seemed to feel bad about himself as he said this.
『I feel really frustrated that big bro and TAKUMI managed to get
into main tournament’s finals, while I couldn’t do it at all…』
His words were strange, and it echoed in my heart.
After calmly thinking about it thoroughly,
in general, it’s rather unnatural to find
that there is something that gets me heated up like this at this age.
In my teens and my 20s, there were many things can get me heated up.
However, for some reason, when I entered my 30s,
I’ve been tormented by the reality that the number of things that can get me heated up have dramatically decreased.
And when I entered my 40s, that number has decreased to zero.
I often hear these sort of things in general.
I’ve been living in a manner derived from me thinking “I don’t want to become like that,
but the reality is
little by little, the things that get me heated up have disappeared.
That’s why, to have something that gets you heated up,
exaggeratedly speaking,makes you feel that you’re alive,
in other words, because it gives you that moment that makes you feel 【alive】,
you give your all for it.
The goal can be anything.
We should be thankful to have something that gets us heated up.
There’s no way you’re enjoying life if you have a cold way of life.
After training ended,
I started packing my things in my room.
I headed to the airport on time
while dodging the waves of people, I arrived in the aeroplane.
I exchanged greetings with Master Igu Igu,
who took care of me a lot this time as well.
And at the end,
『An article like this was published.
Please say something about it!』
was the message that he sent me.
I clicked on the URL.
This wonderful title is hilarious…
And
I read the contents of this article, and the funniest part was this.
『… However, the reason why his knee did not give out,
is because GACKT has recently been hooked on poker.
As pointed out by a music writer』
Ahahahaha.
Li〜sten close here, all you shitty writers.
There’s just no way that someone, who’s at the level of simply being 【hooked】
on it, can get into the finals of a tournament!!
It’s not being 【hooked】 on it,
I’m always 【serious】 about it!
Also, it said this too.
『He has been on a poker spree and such
so as to not put any strain on his knees』
Hey hey hey,
don’t write about stuff as if you know me well
when you don’t know anything about me at all!
Seriously, it’s like you guys don’t know
a single thing about this GACKT.
Are we good? Listen well here.
After my tour ended last year,
after I recovered my physical condition, and even after my ligament tore
when I was hover boarding at sea, played more and more, tons!
I worked and played seriously, shithead!
I don’t know how old you are but
you’re jealous that
even though I’m 43
I’m able to seriously play
and have a job that I can invest my life in and work seriously in, aren’t you!
Also, let me say just one more thing at the end.
What’s with that joke of a name?
Is there something that’s even more of a joke?
It reads 【kintama aru…】*
Well obviously you have those!!
But y’know
to have your balls hanging out, even if it’s just for a pretense,
as an adult, or as a member of society,
that just makes you a third-rater!!!
Got it!? You nutsack!!
Ah〜〜〜
That was refreshing.
Well then, I’m going out〜.
*It means “to have balls”, derived from:
金 = kin
田 = ta
麻 = ma
有 = aru
