GACKT Official Blog update. Translation below:

Today, I did my training in the morning as well.
I quickly completed my home training, then
soaked in a hot Jacuzzi for a long while.
Since I returned from Japan last night, my nose has been blocked.
Maybe it’s because it’s still cold at night there,
but it’s scary that my condition will go bad if I’m not careful.

It might also be because it’s the turn of the seasons at this time of the year
and if I’m in Japan, I’ll get sick every year.

I have to make sure that
it will not affect my work in Okinawa, which starts tomorrow.

This time, I’ll be going back to Japan for the Okinawan Film Festival,
I really considered staying a little longer in Okinawa but
I have to leave after a few days after all
because of my tight schedule.

After finishing my meeting, I headed to the hospital.

To make sure that I don’t fall ill,
I go for a drip on a regular basis.
As usual, I go on a drip from around an hour.

After being done with the drip, I got into the car.
I’ve changed the video system of the moving car a little.

Until previously, I put discs into the DVD changer
and normally watch movies while on the move but
from now on, I’ll try going disc-less,
and be directly connected to Apple TV and Netflix.

After trying a few different ones,
I found that putting the main Apple TV unit doesn’t work well.
Systems that normally require WiFI don’t function well.

In that case,
I tried connecting directly to the iPad
and synchronised the iPad screen to display on the monitor,
and found that this work much more smoothly than I expected.

It’s a new way to use the iPad.

This way,
it’s become easier for me to freely watch movies.
Even such small joys put me in a good mood.

Recently, there has even been ludicrous news that unforgivable.

The marriage of Watabe-kun and Sasaki Nozomi-chan
is a heartwarming event that I sincerely give my congratulations for, but
just the other day,
it’s absolutely terrible just because we performed together, something like this was written.

【GACKT’s dark desires…】, it says.

Just because we worked together, hitting on her,
or “declaring that she’s my woman”,
or talking about the music industry’s most powerful “lower body of steel”…

Seriously, writing about things like these in an amusing way
is nothing but a real nuisance.

Well, indeed,
I might have a 【lower body of steel】 but
having only worked together once, I won’t do something like that.

Also
in the last part of this article,
it says 【suspected of forcing a 27-year old hostess to do a blowjob】.

This is also
an area I can seriously call a real nuisance.
Let me take this chance to touch on this ridiculous thing.

There was a woman and her accompanying boyfriend
who were making a big fuss at a police station in Shinjuku
for some unknown reason over money.

Furthermore,
I’ve never even met this girl before.
It has been more than two years since that commotion at the police station.
A boyfriend? escort.
In the first place, the weirdness of it is off the charts.

After that commotion,
awhile passed before I head of it.

To me
its the kind of thing where I’ll think 『Hey hey… that’s fucking nonsense…』 but
I, who hate things that go in a roundabout manner,
was directly contacted by the Shinjuku police station at the same time,
and I told them that they will know if it’s really true if they come to my home
so the detective in charge came over
and had an actual look at the inside of my house.

Even the detective in charge said

『I’m really sorry
that you have to be troubled for something this silly…』

and appeared apologetic from start to end.

Honestly,
I wondered if something like that can really become a case or and article but
to think that a portion of the shitty media all wrote amusingly about this at the same time
with a speed and setup that looked like they prepared for it from the beginning,
and there were even media reports
that reported about whether or not I raped someone.

But, if you think about it calmly, you’ll know.

For me to say something like this,
it might sound arrogant but
I’ll daringly say it myself

『Does this GACKT
have a need to drag a woman into my home to rape?』

None at all.
Neither am I a worthless man
who can only deal with women through sexual crimes
or lives in a manner that troubles women.

In a nutshell, 【no trouble at all】.

I would like to ask these reporters
in what way of thinking I would I want to become such character.

Indeed, I am do-S.
This, I admit.
However, I’m not the cliched, superficial kind of S who appears in erotic novels
and gets excited through bondage or using tools
Honestly, I have no interest in that kind of low level play.

My S is instead S in terms of service,
like I feel joy when I see their nervous expression…
Hm, I suppose it’s difficult to understand…
Oh well.
I’ll leave the details for next time.

Seduction for example is included too.
Because I’m seriously in love with that person at that moment,
I myself will also be excited
so I’m not interested in seducing at an appropriate emotion.

That’s my usual serious attitude
no matter what it’s for so
those who know will normally be able to understand.

Unexpectedly, I, GACKT, am a passionate one.
If it were up to me to say,
I’m pretty embarrassed though…

Well,
even while I think that I can’t really find a girlfriend
who is suitable for this do-S me…,
everyday, I walk around the world with the thought,
“I wonder if there will be a wonderful encounter today…”, tucked in a corner of my heart.

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

Alright…
I ended up talking about a variety of things but
what I wanted to talk about isn’t about me〜!

It’s that I would like to send my sincere congratulations
to Watabe-kun and Nozomi-chan who got married after a wonderful encounter.

I hope that the two of them will do their best together from here on.
Outsiders will say all kinds of things as they like,
and unnecessary rumours will easily hurt a person’s heart,
and there may even be unavoidable slander by the media.

But,
I hope that you will ignore those things, and I hope that you will be able to build a wonderful family.

Not only were you born in the same era,
you met each other,
you fell in love,
and you both felt that you want to walk through life together,
that can only be said to be a 【series of continuous miracles】.

Please cherish each other.
And continue this series of miracles.

You have my sincere blessings.
Congratulations on your wedding.
