[Lyrics] Umineko no Naku Koro ni Chiru Episode 5 Theme Song – Occultics no Majo [Ayumu]

I hope everyone in the US enjoyed this Thanksgiving. Aside from relaxing I decided to translate Umineko’s new theme song today. This one was interesting to work on but I think it turned out well. Right after the translation I added a bunch of translation notes since I noticed a bunch of stuff while working. …

Falling in Love with Touhou Videos Again

Not feeling like doing much in the day preceding my Thanksgiving holiday I spent a good chunk of time watching Touhou videos yesterday. I haven’t really watched any in quite a while so it reminded me why I love them so much. Below are some of the ones I watched in no particular order.

Beating Tales of Vesperia

Since the beginning of the semester several friends and I have been playing our way through the Xbox 360 game Tales of Vesperia. Almost every week we would gather for “Vesperia Friday” and play for several hours until we beat the game two nights ago. Now that we have finally finished I can now reflect …

Nekocon 12: Battler’s Field Report

For the past 3 days I’ve been missing in action on the internets due to Nekocon 12. After getting tired of not ever going to conventions with my friends I decided this year that I would finally go to one. Though my wallet is aching in the end it was definitely worth the price and …

[Lyrics] iDOLM@STER Dearly Stars Image Song Dazzling World (M@STER VERSION) [Akizuki Ryo]

Even though Eri is my favorite idol from Dearly Stars, Ryo’s image song Dazzling World is probably my favorite new song. As the name suggests the song is about an eternal love that illuminates the entire world. I really like the lyrics and the flow of the song and just pretty much everything. Also Ryo …

[Lyrics] To Aru Kagaku no Railgun ED Dear My Friend -Mada Minu Mirai he- [ELISA]

Unlike only my railgun Dear My Friend is a much simpler song. However that doesn’t mean I enjoy it any less. It’s such a happy song that I worked on translation in a relaxed manner with a smile. I hope this song brings other “Railgunners” just as many smiles.

[Lyrics] To Aru Kagaku no Railgun OP only my railgun [fripSide]

I know that the full version of this song has been floating around the internet for a while but I’m happy that the single officially came out today so that I could work on translating it. This song was somewhat tricky to translate but it was definitely worthwhile. After I finished I read through the …

[Lyrics] iDOLM@STER Dearly Stars Image Song Precog (M@STER VERSION) [Mizutani Eri]

Since Eri is still currently my favorite iM@S DS idol I felt obligated to translate this song. It’s a nice song about opening up and starting all over again just like how Eri did. I’m planning to work on the other new iM@S songs sometime as well. For now I hope you enjoy Precog (PURIKOGU):
