This stop brings us to Nagoya, which will host the May 14, 2016 stop of the LAST VISUALIVE tour. "Nagoya Congress Center" is the English name of the whole convention center; "Century Hall" is the name of the specific hall where the concerts took/will take place. I don't recall if I've said this before, but …

Happy New Year, O Readers! May the Year of the Monkey treat you well. We come once again to the Tokyo International Forum for another two days of shows. Any new readers or those wishing to reread earlier posts might want to go to the Table of Contents first. ☆ November 16, 2002 Tokyo International …
The Air Moon Ch. 4: Kagen no Tsuki, Part 6
So I signed in several weeks ago thinking I'd bust out this one stop right quick, when I happened to see on my WordPress dashboard that one of the search engine terms that led someone here was "air moon gackt english pdf." That was a bit troubling. As is written in the "Request" in the …
The Air Moon Ch. 4: Kagen no Tsuki, Part 5
I had translated a little bit of this a few days ago in celebration of the fact that I accomplished one of the things I was trying to do this summer. I finished it today because I was so angry at someone, and then angry at myself for letting stuff get to me like that, …
The Air Moon Ch. 4: Kagen no Tsuki, Part 4
It's Memorial Day weekend! While I physically did not go anywhere (unless you count repeatedly walking up and down the Detroit International Riverfront), I did take a break from all my usual duties. But enough about me. This post covers two stops, one in Sendai and one in Gunma. First-time visitors are encouraged to start …
The Air Moon Ch. 4: Kagen no Tsuki, Part 3
Slowly we inch closer to the halfway mark of The Air Moon. Very slowly, as I will most likely not have time for this again until May. For the earlier parts, please see the Table of Contents. I'm not sure if I've brought this up before, but the part of concerts where the artist stops …
The Air Moon Ch. 4: Kagen no Tsuki, Part 2
Well, I said I'd post the next chunk in late December and here we are on the last day of the month. The New Year has already reached some parts of the globe, but as the eastern United States is still six hours away from joining the party, I've kept my word. ^o^ Speaking of …
The Air Moon Ch. 4: Kagen no Tsuki, Part 1
The first part of this Chapter was actually labelled "Part 0." Please check the Table of Contents for earlier parts. ☆ October 12, 2002 Toda City Culture Hall (Dress Rehearsal) In preparation for the show on the 14th, the staff had already gotten all the equipment set up inside the hall yesterday. Now, they awaited …
The Air Moon Ch. 4: Kagen no Tsuki, Part 0
We've arrived at the longest chapter of The Air Moon, Chapter 4: Kagen no Tsuki. This bad boy comes in at 84 pages! Given its length (and also the fact that I'm much busier now), I've decided to take this chapter at smaller chunks at a time than I did with the live house tour …
The Air Moon Chapter 3: Taiwan
While this chapter is titled "Taiwan," it mostly consists of an interview with Gackt about MOON CHILD. Of course, the topic of Taiwan and traveling abroad does come up, and the interview was conducted there. I had so far avoided putting hyperlinks to other sites (e.g. Wikipedia) directly into the translated text. On the one hand, …
