[News] Ayu X Gackt at niconico special on July 29

[ayu-michan]

Waah thank you for sharing the link, I hope Yuzu Translation will upload the next parts soon That was SO FUNNY to watch, I find it interesting how ayu is on nico nico and she didn't know their culture (like 8888), that was so funny and cute. It'd be cool if she does things on there more often.

I loved her reaction.

"It's like Mission Impossible!"

If Ayu went back to hosting a show, I would not be mad. She is hilarious.

[Kuronekomi]

I love them together! I could watch them talking about random things forever <3

[Zeke.]

It was funny. Thanks for the link.

She kept trying to keep her face so wide-eyed and expressionless it seemed. It seemed unnatural when she was doing that.

[a❤martian]

I found it boring tbh. Nothing they talked about interested me. And I wasn't a fan of her look, either. But, I did watch some of the other "related" videos and watched some of her old show. I LOVED that!

[truehappiness]

There's a second part that was premium only, so maybe that will be interesting?

I like hearing more about different dynamics Ayu has with other artists.

Didn't she always did that? I remember watching her talks at TV Shows and she always does that expressionless/wide-eyed face while hearing someone speaking.

they make me cry

[EndOfTheWorld]

I am not sure what the difference is between that video and the earlier one.
They seem the same to me.

[LONJJONG]

It is like 6 minutes longer than the first one. And that's what the non-subscriber could watch.

[AyuGAME]

I want to watch the premium part, the subtitle version I mean

^what a fascinating discussion!

[EndOfTheWorld]

I enjoyed this portion as well.
I never imagined either of them would have a conversation on body hair.
It was funny when Ayu took charge and grabbed the papers with all the questions on them.
But I was disappointed that she kind of dodged the question about living overseas here in the U.S. She was very vague saying that it was just sometimes "inconvenient" to be asian in America. I wish she would have elaborated on that.

[Aderianu]

what are yankii and chiimaa?..

[EndOfTheWorld]

I was interested in this yankii and chiimaa thing too!
I did some research and didn't find too much information since it seems to be a very Japanese thing.
From what I gather yankii are like the young punks of Japan. They are rebellious and dress in a punk style. Kind of like motorcycle gang fashion. It seems to be a cultural thing that has been around for generations. Mostly popular in the 1980's and 1990's.
Chiimaa seem to be the same thing but is a bit newer. Kind of like the new yankii. That's why Gackt was asking Ayu what was around during her time and she said chiimaa. Gackt being older than Ayu said he related to yankii. But I just can't seem to find any info on chiimaa.
That's my understanding.

Either cultural shock or racism or both...

I think you're right! Maybe their styles were different. I remember I read somewhere that Ayu was part of a Yankii girl gang or something like that haha This picture show her with her friends.

Lol Ayu really had a lot of flowers. Interview was very pleasant, it was apparent she and gackt were so comfortable with each other.

What she said about body hair was interesting too, that nobody ever particularly enjoy seeing it on stage. Ever the professional our Ayu ��
