Lyrics: K-ON! Insert Song Fudepen ~Ballpen~

Finally here’s the third new song from the Ho-kago Tea Time CD set. Translaion for this was a little harder that the first two K-ON insert songs and I’ll probably look back at all three sets once I take a break. This is the sixth and last post for the day and I’ll wait until …

Lyrics: K-ON! Insert Song Watashi no Koi ha Hotchkiss

Here’s the second song on K-ON’s Ho-kago Tea Time CD set. Watashi no Koi ha Hotchkiss is a nice song about a girl who expresses her feelings by writing them down and stapling the sheets together until she can’t anymore. Fudepen ~Ballpen~ will follow in just a bit.

Lyrics: K-ON! Insert Song Curry Nochi Rice

Curry Nochi Rice is probably my favorite of the three new K-ON insert songs on the HO-KAGO Tea Time CD if just for the cuteness of Yui singing about curry. English translation included as always. Lyrics for the other two songs, Watashi no Koi ha Hotchkiss and Fudepen ~Ballpen~, will be ready in just a …

Lyrics: Taishou Yakyuu Musume. OP Romantic Strike

I actually haven’t gotten around to watching Taishou Yakyuu Musume yet but I decided to do these lyrics anyway. I’ll get around to watching it after my schedule clears up. I’ll work on K-ON! Insert songs later but right now I seriously need sleep.

Lyrics: Umineko no Naku Koro ni OP Katayoku no Tori by Shikata Akiko (TV Size)

I don’t normally do TV size lyrics but considering that I’ve been on a 07th Expansion translation frenzy lately, I decided I might as well. The reason I don’t usually do TV size cuts is because I can’t guarantee the same accuracy from listening and transcribing as I can from looking at lyrics booklets. Anyway …

Lyrics: Higurashi no Naku Koro ni Rei ED Manazashi by anNina

Another wonderful Higurashi no Naku Koro ni song by anNina. I just love how the lyrics describe Rika’s feelings of committing sin during Saikoroshi-hen. Being the 07th Expansion fan that I am I have translated this set of lyrics in addition to the usual transliteration. Please enjoy.

Lyrics: Higurashi no Naku Koro ni Rei OP Super scription of data by Shimamiya Eiko

Finally the opening single I have been waiting for the most has come out! Super scription of data is a brilliant song and the lyrics match so well with Rika’s story that I obviously HAD to transliterate and translate it. I also included two translator’s notes at the end. I can’t wait for the last …

Lyrics: Basquash! ED free by Yamada Yuu

Basquash’s ending song is very cool and catchy. A lot of the lines get repeated multiple times so I decided to leave in the repeat symbols in the translation to keep it from looking like a mess. I wonder if the full version of the opening will be just as enjoyable. I’m still wondering when …

Lyrics: Hayate no Gotoku!! 2nd season OP Wonder Wind by ELISA

Wonder Wind is an interesting departure from the first season’s two openings. When I watched the first episode of 2nd season I initially wondered if it really was Hayate no Gotoku or not. However it really is a wonderful song. I’ve once again included an English translation and just in case you are wondering I …

Lyrics: K-ON! Insert Song Fuwa Fuwa Time by Sakurakou K-ON Bu

Fuwa Fuwa Time is terribly embarrassing if you know what the lyrics mean so I felt it was my duty to translate them to do the song justice. Enjoy~!
