I love translation so I will always defend it as a viable medium and say that while, yes, a seamless perfect translation that carries over every single meaning will never exist, you can get very damn close, and that it's fun as hell trying. (And besides, those types of rants go nowhere because translation/interpretation will always be demanded, no one who can't understand a text is going to be satisfied being told that "Even if you read a translation, IT WON'T CARRY OVER 100% OF THE MEANING SOMETHING WILL BE LOST." They'll just be like "...so? I want to know anyway.") |

oops I got caught up in the chalk/lime argument I forgot about the OP link; yeah that should be more accurate.

yeah it depends on your language. I mean if I was German I would probably not revert to English to bitch or swear...whereas if you speak like Japanese you might revert to English swear words. Some languages just have that nasty quality, XDXD
nothing feels the same as a good fuck or as potent as a sharp cunt O.o |

^ Take your fanboyism to a different sub-forum before I slap you with an inflated Gackt condom (they're included with Sixth Day first-press), since that's really all I can do without mod powers.
That's been on YouTube for years, under slightly different titles from various different uploaders (with or without TV networks getting it taken down), making it seem more fresh than it really is. After you watch at least 3 Gackt non PV/concert videos on YouTube, you come to realize how much of a perfectionist the man is at anything he pursues, even when he doesn't quite triumph. Doesn't mean I always like his style of music, but you have to give Gackt credit for trying. The moment is still hilarious even if you're not a Gackt fan. Anyway, let's get a little more on-topic here. Any Japanese artist who performs in Tokyo Dome is overrated even if they're good, which in its own way, makes such artists more off-topic to reference within this community, because Shiina Ringo (and especially this album) is (or was) about breaking the corporate-tested genre molds that run rampant within the industry.
