toei-smile-precure-story

The Smile Precure websites were updated recently so I felt like translating the official character and story materials. It pretty much reconfirms the rumors and leaked info we’ve already seen but it also has some nice new tidbits. First up are translations of information from Asahi’s Smile Precure site. Pictures are omitted since the other …

[Lyrics] Amagami SS Character Image Songs For You… – Sweet Message [Sakurai Rihoko (CV: Shintani Ryouko)]

Christmas Eve brings Rihoko’s For You song. I actually had to rewatch her arc because I was unsure if there was a secondary meaning behind “love” and “charm” which I had forgotten. Turns out it had to do with the made up story the older tea club members told Rihoko concerning choux crème. Anyway I …

[Lyrics] Amagami SS Character Image Songs For You… – Present [Tachibana Miya (CV: Asumi Kana)]

This was a fun song to work on. It’s pretty amusing imagining this playing while Miya’s trying her best to console Jun’ichi at the end of the year. Anyway this is the last of the Miya songs but I hope her fans enjoy it.

[Lyrics] Amagami SS Character Song – Ano ne [Tachibana Miya (CV: Asumi Kana)]

Here’s Miya’s second song which translates to something like You Know. A good portion of the song reminds me of the kitty part of her episode so I could imagine it being played as an insert song. Anyway look forward to more play biting tomorrow!

[Lyrics] Amagami SS ED8 – Suteki na Aru Hi [Tachibana Miya (CV: Asumi Kana)]

amagami-ss-ed8

Today’s song is the ED for the Miya episode, Suteki na Aru hi, which translates to A Certain Lovely Day. This also happens to be another one of my favorite Amagami songs. I tried my best to add punctuations in the translation to mimic the emphasis that Miya puts when she sings the song for …

[Lyrics] Amagami SS Character Song – Pandora no Koi [Kamizaki Risa (CV: Kadowaki Mai)]

Following up on yesterday’s post is Risa’s other song Pandora no Koi which translates to Pandora’s Love. The song pretty much fits her episode including the silly milk thing. Unfortunately for Risa fans this is also her last song and it doesn’t seem like she’ll get more exposure in the sequel but I guess there’s …
