Hello, folks. Recently I wasn't happy with our beloved band, but today I laughed out so loud reading this. I think it was the first time for me to laugh because of X in almost half a year. Yoshiki is very talented in trolling and making fans upset, yet he is cute in a way. I can't help admitting it. I don't know how to screenshot bilibili and think the comments of this blog are so hilarious, so I directly translated it. Enjoy!





Yoshiki : When I was touring abroad, things didn't go well as planned. For example, when I went to an overseas concert hall, there was no dressing room... many unexpected situations used to happen. Now I think I am fortunate to have experienced something like that.

(24:05~)

MC : No matter how many situations there were, it must be the first concert without audience?

Yoshiki : There were something like film gigs, but that's taken only for film. This time, great invisible dolls... ah... not dolls, invisible people... I put the idea into my mind that there are over 30,000 invisible people.

* doll(ningyō) and people(ningen) have similar pronunciation.

(blogger : In Japan, before the disbandment, he held a concert only in a situation where everything was perfectly arranged, but after the reunion, many unexpected situations have been played out)






https://www.bilibili.com/video/av33220337/?p=1
(25:10~)

(blogger : After the concert, Yoshiki was drinking wine in bed and spilled it. People said it was a murder scene)

MC : It is dyed kurenai. (Yoshikichannel) viewers wonder if you were not scolded because of it.

Yoshiki : That is my bed.

MC : Ah!

Yoshiki : Am I not allowed to reveal it? That's my bed.

MC : I thought it was a hotel.

Yoshiki : I can't talk about it in detail, but that is my bed. That's all my personal belonging. Even if it's a hotel, that's my bed, a leather bed. Since those are my futon and my bed... I'm the only one who can scold.





https://www.bilibili.com/video/av33220337/?p=1
(27:55~)

Yoshiki : I ran into the seats for the audience at the no audience concert. People asked why there was a security police next to me.
 
(blogger : LOL I also thought so. Why? According to Yoshiki, he let the security police follow him in order to control himself who had an intense adrenaline rush)






Today's guest, Yuki Kaji. The voice actor of <Attack on Titan>.





https://www.bilibili.com/video/av33220337/?p=2
(01:20~)

The voice actor Kaji says that Yoshiki's comment before the playing <Hero>, strong myself beats weak myself, was impressive.





https://www.bilibili.com/video/av33220337/?p=2
(01:30~)

Yoshiki : When I was speaking that day, even though I spoke, there was no one in front of me. I was persuading myself while I was talking. There it was. If we wind down a little bit, it becomes like "What the hell are we doing now?".

MC : When you recover consciousness, there is no audience.

Yoshiki : We shouldn't have recovered consciousness. Because it was a situation that I shouldn't have done so.






https://www.bilibili.com/video/av33220337/?p=2
(04:15~)

Yoshiki : You are very young. You look like a teenager.

Kaji : I'm 33 years old. Until I was in my late 20s, when I bought alcohol at convenience stores, sometimes I was told "Please show your identification".

Yoshiki : If you live in the US, you can't go anywhere without your ID card. Because even me, I go to live house once in a while. Minors can't enter a live house where they sell alcohol.





Yoshiki : Even I am told "Show your ID card" when I go to livehouse...

Kaji : Hahaha. If so, I'll just look like a kid to them.

(blogger : In the end, Yoshiki complimented Kaji on his baby face because he wanted bring out this story. But isn't it too much? Even if westerners often mistake East Asians younger than their actual ages, who on earth think you are under age?)



* I will post the rest next time.

This is great! Thank you so luch for this translation, Lakeisle!

Yoshiki : That is my bed.

MC : Ah!

Yoshiki : Am I not allowed to reveal it? That's my bed.

MC : I thought it was a hotel.

Yoshiki : I can't talk about it in detail, but that is my bed. That's all my personal belonging. Even if it's a hotel, that's my bed, a leather bed. Since those are my futon and my bed... I'm the only one who can scold.

Pfffffffffft  ;D Is he not allowed to reveal that it's his bed? Oh, and "I can't talk about it in detail".

Wait a second... does this mean? He is not only bringing his piano everywhere he goes, but also his bed? ...Freak. But if I were him I would probably do exactly the same.  ;D

I didn't listen to the whole episode. But the blogger summarized Yoshiki's speech, and according to them, all the furniture in the room, including the bed, is said to be Yoshiki's personal belongings. My guess is that Yoshiki leased one room of a hotel and filled it with his own belongings there, because he often stays in Tokyo. LOL I don't think he carries his bed wherever he goes.

(08:00~)

Yoshiki : (To the voice actor) Your articulation is very clear and distinct.






https://www.bilibili.com/video/av33220337/?p=2
(08:10~)

Yoshiki : My pronunciation isn't articulate, so people often say "Your speech is not understandable".


(blogger : I suddenly have a flashback. Back in the day, Yoshiki made a long speech during a meeting. Afterwards, hide said "Yoshiki, I didn't understand a word of yours")





(blogger : When Yoshiki talked about his pronunciation, the voice actor giggled for a while and waved his hand right away. I didn't miss his momentary giggling though. LOL)






Yoshiki : I often hear that. Even my mom used to say, "Speak slowly".


(blogger :  Your mom would have given up by now)






https://www.bilibili.com/video/av33220337/?p=2
(9:00~)

Yoshiki : I have ears as sensitive as dolphin. I can hear the voices of people who are very far away. For example, I hear people's whispering about 30 meters from here.

MC : Every staff is quiet now.

Yoshiki : I don't like it. Sometimes they speak ill of me in the distance. I hear that.



(blogger : You might always have sore ears then. Joke)







https://www.bilibili.com/video/av33220337/?p=2
(16:10~ )

Yoshiki : This is a story when I started studying English. I heard that you can't speak English perfectly unless you speak it since you were a kid. I started studying English in earnest at about 27. Everyone said that it would be impossible to be like native if I started from then on.





In the US, there was a doctor who treated people with speech disorder. I went to see the doctor. Kids with speech disorder didn't have the muscles of mouth needed to speak. I trained my muscle with kids over there. As a Japanese, I didn't have the muscles for speaking English.

(blogger : Keep training)






https://www.bilibili.com/video/av33220337/?p=2
(20:15~ )

Yoshiki : Through training, I made the muscles for speaking English and then I got an acting class. I learned dialects in English, such as English of Texas accents, English of New York accents, English of French speakers, and so on.







Yoshiki : There are coaches to teach that. For example, when the coach says, "Your role today is from Texas" then you have to speak Texas English only. When you take such a class, you realize that your English has some accent. I think I can be a 100%... 99.9% native speaker (What?!!), but on the contrary, I decided to appeal my Japanese accent as my attractive feature.

MC : You mean that it's OK to keep a Japanese accent about 0.01%?

Yoshiki : Yes, I think so.


(...... Loss for words)





https://www.bilibili.com/video/av33220337/?p=4


Yoshiki who went to practive piano. Nobody cares about Yoshiki.






https://www.bilibili.com/video/av33220337/?p=4
(30:00~)

A man with Titan cosplay costume appears.






Yoshiki : I'm scared!





https://www.bilibili.com/video/av33220337/?p=4
(35:00~)

Yoshiki : I'll do a titan cosplay.





(36:00~)

Yoshiki : (all of a sudden) Is there no Attack on Dwarf?



(blogger : Why is Yoshiki so goofy and lively?)





(37:40~)

Yoshiki : (after listening to the promotion of Yoshiki classical concert "The night dyed purple") I think I have to stop being dyed some colors.






MC : Fans are asking "Are you going to dress in purple at the concert?"

Yoshiki : No. I'll wear Taitan's dress.

Everyone : NO! Please don't do that.
