Gacktism 2
Apr 27,2007
This week Gackt's back with a new single, so that means it's time for more . . .
GACKTISMS
"A woman's flexibility and a man's strength . . . put them together and you'll have a body like mine."
"We'd be better off if we only had the words 'I love you.'"
"I, uh, hate stupid people . . . but I love really stupid people. I don't like averagely wise people either, but I do like the really wise."
"I like both men and women as long as they are beautiful. I'd be so happy if everyone in the world became cute . . ."
"I take this world that exists inside of me and output it like some sort of automatic translator. The music and words that I say to you are nothing more than translations."
"My enemies are: sugar, cockroaches . . . and then, women (laughs)"
-----------------
Original Japanese (taken from the official Gackt website)
"Josei rashii shinayakasa to dansei rashii chikarazuyosa wo awase motta karada ga Boku rashisa ka na, to."
"'Aishiteru yo,' tada sono hitokoto dake areba ii"
"Boku wa ne, baka wa kirai dakeredo, obaka wa suki nan da. Futsu ni kashikoi hito wa suki ja nai kedo, sugoi kashikoi hito wa daisuki."
"Boku sa, otoko no ko de mo onna no ko de mo kirei na hito, utsukushii hito wa suki da kara sa. Yo no naka no hito, minna ga kawaiku nattara shiawase da na . . ."
"Boku wa Boku no naka ni furitekita sekai wo sono mama dashiteru honyakuki mitai na mono de, Boku kara deru oto mo, Boku kara deru kotoba mo honyakuki wo toshite deta ni suginai . . ."
"Boku ni totte no teki wa, sato, gokiburi. Ato wa . . . onna (wara)"

nice!
I hadn't heard these quotes before. Very funny. I love the translation quote.

Thanks Fateschild!
Yeah, it's Gackt so I usually try to choose the wackier quotes for these pieces, but I just had to add that translation quote. Thanks for the comment!

SO Gackt
thanks so much for this, because I can't translate it from the site. even though it's funny, I think he's very serious also. But he doesn't really say much, for all the talking he does. when he wrote me it wasn't much. So I just get more about him from reading stuff like this. arigatou!

Thanks ookamishi,
I try to put these out whenever Gackt releases something new, so hopefully he'll pick up the pace on his releases!

Appreciate
I really appreciate you putting these quotes up, it is so difficult to find any Gackt in English where I live in Florida. It's also nice to see the Japanese, it makes me wish I could speak the language, I think it is so beautiful. Again, thank you for giving me these wonderful glimpses into Gackt! (^_^)

No problem Melissa! Thanks for coming out and reading the blog!
If you're thinking about learning Japanese, I'd recommend teaching yourself through language books/listen-along CDs. They won't get you that far into the language but they do help you get a good start and you can work at your own pace. Once you have the fundamentals down, you'll have an easier time studying Japanese at school or even living out here.
Anyway, that's how I first started ; )
