[Lyrics] Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker PAZ Character Song – Koi no Yokushiryoku PAZ special ver. [Mizuki Nana]

Never would I have imagined that I would be translating a Nana song for a Metal Gear game. As soon as I saw the video today I knew I had to translate this song. It seems so out of place in Metal Gear but I can’t help but love the strangeness of blending two of …

Ookami Kakushi: A More Satisfying 07th Expansion Anime Than Umineko

nemuru-haoyuan

Over the last two weeks I caught up with watching Ookami Kakushi. The last time I had watched it was when I spent my 21st birthday immersing myself in everything 07th Expansion. I watched the first two episodes and after only that I was pretty much able to formulate a solid theory which later proved …

[Lyrics] Mahou Shoujo Lyrical Nanoha A’s PORTABLE -THE BATTLE OF ACES- OP – Silent Bible [Mizuki Nana]

silent-bible

I’ve been meaning to do this since it came out but I haven’t been able to get around to it until today due to school-related issues. I think I was a little less strict in my interpretation into English than usual but hopefully it turned out well. I keep rereading it just to make sure …

Scarborough_Fair_Front_Red

So today I finally got the limited edition shirt I won from Penny Arcade’s Bayonetta Contest. Basically on the release date, January 7th, Penny Arcade ran an old school ’submit-a-photo’ style contest to award the first 500 entrants to beat the game on hard difficulty an exclusive T-shirt. For extra validation contestants also had to …

[Lyrics] Muv-Luv Extra / Muv-Luv Unlimited / Akane Maniax OP – Muv-Luv [Kuribayashi Minami]

Honya’s been on a translation tear lately, but when she mentioned that her next project was going to be Kuribayashi Minami’s tune Muv-Luv (because no one else has translated it yet, apparently), I begged her to let me do it instead. “Muv-Luv” is one of my favorite songs, and Muv-Luv Unlimited/Alternative  would be on my …

Anime Family Project ReDEUX

akiko-nayuki-seifuku

Exactly two years ago I posted “my ideal family” if it were to consist of anime, manga and game characters. Basically the idea came to me when I stumbled on an amazing thread randomly in which people would post a list of characters to form a family. Think of Kyouran Kazoku Nikki and that’s pretty …

Dengeki G’s Festival! DELUXE Vol.5 Key NEW YEAR SPECIAL GET

dengeki-gs-fes-dx-5-kud-wafter

Yesterday I came back to school and waiting for me at the house was a package containing a copy of Dengeki G’s Festival! DELUXE Vol.5, the Key special issue, and my Cospa Hirasawa Yui shirt. Since I can only talk so much about a t-shirt I’ll focus on the magazine only. The reason I decided …

Day Spent in 07th Expansion Mode

For some reason I spent yesterday in 07th Expansion Mode and ended up watching the first two episodes of Ookami Kakushi. From the very start I couldn’t help but get my tablet ready to take down notes as per usual for mystery-solving purposes and before I knew I had enough to make a post. In …

[Lyrics] Tales of Graces Theme Song Mamoritai ~White Wishes~ [BoA]

tales-of-graces-theme-cover

I’m not particularly a fan of BoA at all but I do like Tales games so I decided to do this song. Unlike past songs I’ve done Mamoritai has an official English version so I posted that AND my translation of the original Japanese version. The two versions are quite different so be sure to …
