I'll split the costs with you! Someone point us to a willing translator please!
Let's outsource it to a translator of dubious quality from an Eastern-bloc country, I'm sure the result would be far more interesting than whatever the big G has to say.

Maybe we can get whoever did the late Madoushos ::meev::

Yeah...so...maybe go hire that Latvian to subtitle this. What IS ienomi? Is it like, a soft core porn talk show?
They just sit around and talk about ecchi stuff. It's like one long long anatomodachi reference until he changes it to anakyoudai, and it's epecially awkward because Gackt is a sukebe oyaji and that guy in the upper left looks like he's still a virgin.

edit: Oh but I did just laugh at something.

Gackt: So kaya, are you an uke or a seme?
Kaya: Either one's fine; I'll do anything
Hayato: "I'll answer anything!"

holdup... is there a Hannya/般若 rerelease or another new song with that same name... oO... and is Kalm involved... anyways we'll know tomorrow apparently

You got there just before me so I'll delete my post and quote what I added:

Kaya is re-releasing 般若/hannya from the hyakki-yagyou mini-album on 26/08 (midnight, local time) on streaming with a new edit from Kazutoshi Yokoyama (Buck-Tick/Angelo). A CD is planned with a "spoken word" version and the original. More details here.


I don't really know why it elicits a remake but for what it's worth, I did really enjoy the original.

Yeah, I don't really know what to think of it... as much as I want to support kaya I can't justify dropping £40 + shipping/taxes for a 3-track single. I bought the digital single from amazon at least :|

It was available to stream yesterday for a couple of hours (not anymore)

I wonder if I should wait for the outside of Japan release or just buy it from his store?
Or just buy the digital I guess.

Ok so I did hear that right! Thought I had imagined it or misunderstood or something. Wow. What a bizarre and invasive question to ask.... honestly wished Kaya had returned the question.

Also, @faith I adore your translation summaries ALWAYS! but I feel bad about bothering you by asking x) also I feel like we should be paying you if you have to suffer through Guckt

Keep in mind that outgoing mail from Japan has been suspended to many countries.

Yeah...I kinda realized after a while that, if I hear something and go, "Nah, he can't have said that"...well, he probably really did say that.
Did you also understand the part before that where Gackt and Kaya repeat "Mottainai" for an eternity (in reference to masturbation) and then Gackt goes, "wow we must be anakyoudai!"
Easiest 5 minutes of the show to understand XD

I don't mind translating for free. I don't think I'm professional quality anymore since I lost so much of my Japanese over the past decade.
But there's no way I'm doing this one. I just don't want to hear Gackt, Kaya, or the other guys talk about sex. It doesn't interest me. Or rather, Gackt creeps me out now, a lot.

I had no idea what was going on when I watched it, and just now googled both words. Never imagined anakyoudai would be a thing. wow :|

I completely understand xD no one deserves this tbh.. maybe we can find an actual Gackt fan to translate! They shouldnt be too bothered right?

I learned the other day that Nomico's "Bad Apple!!" has become like the "Hello World" of demoscene coders (which is to say, programmers who do "tricks" to make impressive displays on ancient hardware)

Original:


Now on a BBC Micro ::meev::


And so on ad infinitum. Nomico may well be more famous than her brother now XD

I remember seeing some of those Bad Apple videos. One was for Sega Master System or something. Imagine buying a homebrew game and it's just a music video.

And yeah, still no update on the physical single. Fug. Kaya has forgotten us foreign fans :/

Headsup, Gackt invited Kaya to be on a group drinking videocall thing again tomorrow (Saturday), so shall I upload after it's finished?

It's Kaya and a kabuki actor this time (I think, google translator is weird half the time)

I feel like we should open an exception to the content sharing rule when it's Guckt-related... I mean, it's not like he needs the money! (in this case, it's not like Kaya is getting any money, right?)

Well, let's say if you want to "borrow" Grackt livestreams, we can make an ongoing exception for that, but I do want to keep any exceptions narrowly tailored. If some goofball comes in and tries to upload all of Gackt's live DVDs or something, that's still forbidden.

I am looking forward to Gackt finding new ways to disgust us, I'll admit ::meev::
