TRANSLATION TAKESHI NAKANO FACEBOOK - March 26th 2015
Today I had a planning meeting with Takumi-kun for the first time in awhile. It was a day that left me thinking of various things. Its not about whether things are good or bad, or whether something that holds meaning in at this point in time should be held onto or stepped away from. What's important is to capture the waypoint that can bring us to the next. Otherwise, you'll keep getting held back by the past, and you won't be able to go forth and take the next step. I wonder if GACKT and I can come up with good plans for 2015... Going to sleep zzz

Comment:
Starting with a promise made to a youth in 2005, with the thoughts of giving youths strength to to build their future, and to give them a little encouragement from the seniors who walk before them, GACKT has used the theme of a graduation ceremony and created a song "Noni Saku Hana no You ni" which he performs for the "Graduation Ceremony Surprise Live".
This is the 9th "Graduation Ceremony Surprise Live".
We have approached GACKT who just wrapped up the "Graduation Ceremony Surprise Live at Jonan Ryoso High School in Kyoto!
And after a moving talk, GACKT shared a lot of "Graduation Ceremony" memories with us! Please look forward to it!!
