12/8、9 Osaka-jo Hall
This is the view from the stage of Osaka-jo Hall.
By the way, the cameraman is standing on the spot where Gackt stands.
This is how it looks like to Gackt.

The path Gackt took
This is the path they took to enter the Hall, starting from Gackt, followed by the members and the staff.
The stone wall in Osaka-jo Hall is impressive, isn’t it?

Note:
[1] ![[info]](http://l-stat.livejournal.com/img/userinfo.gif?v=92.2) muse90210 helped me check the meaning and apparently "barashi" is a term used for the act of taking apart Apple PowerBooks, disassembling them, usually with the purpose of finding out how they work inside and/or making modifications. It was also mentioned with iPods but it seems mostly to be applied to PowerBooks. Thank you very much for the information, Muse!! ^^
And @@ information about the tour document for DIABOLOS～哀婉の詩～ is already up. Seems like they are going to have another special limited edition as well. (What DOESN'T have a limited edition these days!?) I believe it'll come in a "specially-made, gorgeous coffin box" (!!) and you will get a silver blade paper knife (!?) 160 pages of pure goodness~~ Pre-orders start tomorrow and ends on 28 Feb; release date is late March. By the side, it's double the price of the normal edition. It's also by the same photographer who does his previous tour books. ^^
WANTS. *paws*

I'm not sure yet, this information just came in, so I guess we'll see what the online sites decide to do in a few days time. ^^ It'll be great if we can order the limited edition in yesasia though. *0* Do you think that Yesasia will have it too? Me want :) | | From: | sweiled |

I just realised how close the Tokyo Dome concert is now. I so wish I was there...
I wonder how Gackt is feeling right now...
(well, hopefully he's resting right now, but anyway.)
ooooooh, I have a feeling that I want that paper knife VERY BADLY. Of course the rest, too, but I really need a paper knife and one that would be all about Gackt would be just so sweet.
*retreats to a corner to make a plan to attain it*
Thanks for the translations and info again :)

hehehehe, since it's almost 4 AM in Japan now, I think he is probably getting some rest. Either that, or driving around somewhere. X3
Hhahahahha, go easy on the planning now. :p
You are welcome~ ^^ TOKYO DOME! TOKYO DOME!
I'm excited, dammit! Oooh, the picture from the link is really gorgeous... I love grayscale photos. thank you very, very much sweiled ^^ it's so nice to see how the tour has progressed through the eyes of the staff.
thank you, again :) | | From: | sweiled |

XDDD Breathe, girl, breathe!! Nobody has uploaded the WOWOW version yet though. @@;;
You are welcome, and you got that right. ;) A pity it's coming to an end. ;o; No news from it so far, but I'm still expecting something to happen. 0_0 Like, for them to at least say thank you and bye bye? >__>
Most welcome, sweetie!! :D We're all going to be so broke.
...Well, except for Gackt. XD
Thanks as always! Isn't it sad that it's coming to an end? Where in the world did the time go?! O_o? | | From: | sweiled |

XDDDDDDDDDDDDDD At the rate we are going, YES. Just not earning enough money. ;o; Gackt needs to slow down a little. XD
You are welcome!! It totally is. ;;_____;; Time flew out the window. >.>;; Oooh. Letter openers sound nice. I actually need one of those. Oh and just what I need~another coffin lying around my apartment. Yes, purchase of insanely expensive photobook has just been rationalized. Haha--I can't find barashi anywhere either. Maybe the teardown when the concert is over? Who knows.
Thanks for the translations and enjoy your holidays! Tonight...T-minus 8 hours to Tokyo Dome and imminent Gacktage! *squees* ![[User Picture]](http://l-userpic.livejournal.com/19039900/3190618) | | From: | tarogirl |

XD!! Thank you for the translations!! As usual. ^^
But I'm so sad that the pictures are tiny again! ;_;
This is how it looks like to Gackt.
Yeah... except when Gackt looks at it it's dark and filled with people. XD
Note:
[1] I have no idea what barashi means. @@
Course, I wouldn't be me if I didn't take on that challenge and go on a search to find out what it was. What I found is that apparently "barashi" is a term used for the act of taking apart Apple PowerBooks, disassembling them, usually with the purpose of finding out how they work inside and/or making modifications. I've also seen it mentioned with iPods but it seems mostly to be applied to PowerBooks.
Of course, I'm not 100% sure that that is it, but the meaning of disassemble seems appropriate here, doesn't it? ^.^ Plus the connotation of PowerBook, because the whole show probably runs on those considering how much of an Apple fan Gackt is. XD
I believe it'll come in a "specially-made, gorgeous coffin box" (!!)
XD!! What item produced by Gackt *doesn't* come in/with a coffin shaped box/photo frame/clock/anything else?? XD | | From: | sweiled |

And you are welcome!! :D
Yeah, they are. ;o;
Ooooooooooh, that's interesting!! :D Yeah, I kind of guess the rough idea of it, but I don't have the specific word for it. Mind if I copy and paste what you've written as footnotes? :D? With credits of course. ^^ And thanks for checking the meaning out!! X3
AHAHAHAHAHA~~ XD Hi. Thanks for the info and translations.
Do you know the name of the photographer? | | From: | sweiled |

XDD Hahaha, I missed your comments! XD You are very welcome!! X3 Hahahaha, that one will be a killer to ship. XD
AND YES PB 6 IS WORTH IT!! It has sooo many backstage footages of him, and you see him having fun, smiling, goofing off... You see a very human side of him, a true and unmasked side of him. ^^ AND the Venus fort performance!! And the footages of fanclub events!! Aaaaaaaaaaaaaa~~~~~~~~~~~
To sum it up, VERY worth it. XD
Awww, MERRY XMAS to you too!! X3 Though a little late. ^^;; And Happy New Year!! :D *hugs* Seeing the Osaka venue photos made me wonder if many of his friends/family from Kyoto went to the shows~ ^^ And still waiting for them to update Backstage with the Tokyo Dome live!! :D
I am sooo getting the limited edition!!! I hope they put it up at yesasia or somewhere else online because it seems reservations are only taken through 2/28. @@ omg 160 pages~~~~~
