Kirito answers questions from YT comments

Source: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N2ha-j72kOs  ,  this is a translation of the last question. I will share about the other questions later ^^ there are some other interesting ones, but I think this one in a particular is a life lesson that everyone can apply in their lives at some point. I did my best in the translation, hopefully it’s not so bad ^^

Question: As a band leader and president, when comparing the past and present time, have you changed your way of doing things?  

Kirito: First of all, I don’t think my personality is suited to be a band leader, president of a company or to be at the top of this organization. That’s because I’ve been told since I was that I kid, that instead of integrating with people, I would tend to leave people behind. Relatively, I didn’t have any sense of cooperation, that’s why I think I’m really not suited for it. 

And well, until now it has been this way, that’s why I’m not the type of person who is able to explain the know-how to others. As I said in a video I posted before, someone like me who is not very sociable, and is too meticulous toward other people, and also someone like me who lacks any sympathy or consideration to others, when I think that someone like this was able to become a band leader and a president of a company, I guess that is because I was someone who took the initiative and continued with it, I had the resolution and had established a sense of purpose.

After all, when I was young, I had my major debut when I was 26 years old. That was when I swiftly created a band from indies, which had a very popular major debut, it was a period with a very hectic environment, at that kind of time the environment already became very abnormal, but even in that kind of environment, I had to produce results, I was very tense at the time.

When I think about it, setting aside if there were good things or bad things, my nerves were on the edge. Well, I think there were more things in a bad sense.  However, I took the initiative, and I thought it was like a suicide, but I just did it and I cut through that road. I thought this was the only role for me, although at that point I still wasn’t able to cooperate with other people, and was too meticulous, and didn’t have consideration to other people, so in that sense my nerves were on the edge. 

However, In regards to what’s different from that kind of past when compared to the present time, is that now what I want to do the most is to have fun. Which is a bit different from what I wanted in the past. In the past, it wasn’t that fun anymore, it was already a painful and life-threatening situation obviously, it was very violent and I was on the edge. That being said, it was sort of an extremely destructive kind of thing, regardless of that, it still was the place I wanted to go to then, the enthusiasm was very high, and I think that was probably the only way to penetrate through it. After all, human beings are not able to accomplish things if they are not connected and cooperate together, so in that sense, if they are too destructive, they won’t be able to follow things anymore, and in the end, everyone will end up broken.

Right now, things are a little bit different, regardless of what I am doing, whether it’s concerts, rehearsal, songwriting or recording, although it is fun, it’s not only that. More than general fun, it’s more like a feeling of “YEAH! (gyaa!)”. When you are aiming to a goal, although it may seem fun to get results by rushing intensively, isn’t it more fun to obtain results while you are actually having fun?  This is what’s different from the past now.
