thanks for posting pictures =)

What I understand from here, Yoshiki said that he wants to release the biography overseas also, in English and maybe also Chinese.

Ohh to all of you beautiful people here, thanks so much... and Sander I was hoping that his book
will be released in English... I'm sure this would make it to the bestsellers list

*waiting, waiting*

i want that biography.......i'm not gonna waste my time finding a japanese dictionary.

Since I cannot understand Japanese, hence English or Chinese version will do. I keep my fingers crossed. X Japan wast 10 years went on hiatus... VK/Jrok band after age 40, you gonna run with time...they really need to catch up and no more separated. When is their next tour schedule either in Japan or outside between now and Paris tour in Oct 2009. We as X fan has been waiting so long ..for many delay and postponement. Yoshi spent nearly 10 years on unfinished project Viloet UK and it's not justified for his energy, time and money.. he does not to have another 10 years...

Yoshiki WANTS

not Yoshiki WILL

Keep that in mind, please.

But IF the book will be released in those languages; GREAT!

I'd definately buy one.

Hopefully they will release an English copy. I think there is a real demand for this and I think it would help boost Yoshiki's and X Japan's profile overseas!! I would love a copy!!!

RainSeraphim · **Reply #68 on:** June 17, 2009, 08:05:20 PM

I'd get a copy too, if it was in English. Just think - going to your favorite bookstore, and there's a book on the shelf with Yoshiki's name and picture on it...

Has anyone who knows Japanese have read that biography now? If yes, can you tell us about the content of that book?

Great news!

Ashemanu · **Reply #72 on:** December 26, 2009, 08:24:22 AM

Yeah, great. I only wonder if the Yoshiki or his management have realized by now that Europe exists too. Well, hooray for ebay.com and amazon.com then ^^

Just wanted to let folks know that I just bought the Chinese version at kino in Singapore this week so it might also be available in other Chinese speaking countries as well. And its cheaper than the Jap version too! Come in soft cover for around USD15.

edyork · **Reply #80 on:** April 09, 2010, 03:21:12 PM

^ O.O thanks for that info! shall get it soon

just wondering if there's a English version of it? lolz i think i'd have headache reading his biography in Chinese :/

lucy_bkk · **Reply #81 on:** April 11, 2010, 06:39:04 PM

Further to my post on 24Jan, there is Chinese translation available at Kinokuniya Bookstore in Bangkok. It's very convenient for me to buy Chinese version in BKK. It's out in March 2010.

ahmah · **Reply #83 on:** April 19, 2010, 04:14:26 PM

Its just called Yoshiki/佳树 by 小松成美 and can be found in the Chinese book department. When I bought it, it was on display prominently with other new books. Think you can't miss it. Just check with the staff. Good luck on the hunt!

edyork · **Reply #84 on:** April 19, 2010, 05:21:43 PM

I just bought the Chinese version ^^ In case anyone is wondering, it's in Traditional Chinese ~

Ann1958 · **Reply #85 on:** April 19, 2010, 06:04:42 PM

Japanese or Chinese...I can't read or understand ...Just hoping for an English version or a sweet someone who have the courage to translate it for us...

jaimex · **Reply #86 on:** January 25, 2011, 12:39:56 PM

Sorry to bring up old topic but just wondering ... is anyone still interested in English translation of d book ? I bought the Chinese version last year n skimmed thru - was wee bit hard for me to read as it's in old Chinese script. But I'll have some free time next month so I thought I will actually read it this time n perhaps translate it. Please let me know if it's already been translated.

julien · **Reply #87 on:** January 25, 2011, 12:58:12 PM

I'm interested as there's no news for the english version...

elanor · **Reply #88 on:** January 25, 2011, 09:37:17 PM

@jaimex
jes, please, it would be very kind of you. i will start up lerning jap. language this month to be a bit fit for my next holidays in Tokyo end of the year, but i guess it would take ages for me to read a book in japanese. Thank you in advance

vayz · **Reply #89 on:** January 27, 2011, 09:53:15 AM

thanks so much in advance. For all I know, there has not been any translation done in English of Yoshiki's bio. I'll be looking forward to yours.
