Here is the ending song of Angel Beats! The lyrics capture Kanade so well that I can envision her singing this song and all the accompanying imagery. Tada Aoi’s pleasant voice also adds to the illusion so Brave Song just edges out My Soul, Your Beats! as my favorite of the two theme songs. I hope to hear more songs from her in the future. Enjoy the transliteration and translation below!

I didn’t mean to do this single today but I found a copy of it so I here are the lyrics a little early. Lia is such an amazing singer. I hope they release the LiSA AKA Yui version on the next single (so that I have one less song to do). The ED translation is coming soon but have fun with this for the time being.

Here’s the final song on the Thousand Enemies single. Just like Rain Song I don’t believe this has aired in the anime yet but I did it anyway since it will show up eventually. Since I’m busy this week I’ll go back and check all three sets of lyrics later to do some fine-tuning but they should be fine as is for the time being. Enjoy.

Here’s the second song on the Thousand Enemies single Rain Song. The lyrics are relatively simple so it wasn’t too hard. I don’t think this has actually appeared in the anime yet but whatever. Only one song left!

I should be studying for my last two finals but instead I bring you the latest insert song from Angel Beats! Thousand Enemies is performed by LiSA as Yui and was played during episode 5. After listening to it a few times I think this may be my favorite Angel Beats song. I really like the lyrics and it’s just so fun to sing. I’ll get around to the other 2 songs on the single at some point but for now have fun with this translation!

After finishing Listen!! I isolated myself in the mountains for years but finally I bring you GO! GO! MANIAC, the opening of K-ON 2. Actually that’s a lie. It’s just that the song is so long it almost felt like the years were just passing me by. That or somehow I got infected with FOXDIE. Anyway the song was rather easy to translate though because of the slang the romaji looks a little funny. Anyway enjoy my translation!

Just when I thought I was done with translating Key songs for the time being I was surprised yet again today by the release of Kud Wafter’s opening song one’s future. It is sung by none other than Suzuta Miyako the voice of lead heroine Noumi Kudryavka. There are four versions of the song on the single including the regular version, a special “live” version and two instrumental versions. Surprisingly there is a lack of any Engrish considering the character singing. At the very least there is plenty doubling up of words so it sounds very cutesy. I made sure to retain that in my translation as best I could. The game won’t be out until June 25 but until then enjoy this translation of the song!

Finally here’s the last Angel Beats insert song from the Crow Song single. Alchemy is sung during the middle of episode 3 and is pretty amazing. Translating this was a little more difficult than Crow Song or My Song but hopefully it turned out right. Have fun with this translation!

As promised when I did Crow Song here is another one of the Angel Beats insert songs. This time it is My Song which was sung at the climax of episode 3. I think out of the three songs on the single this may be my favorite one. Anyway only Alchemy left. For now enjoy my translation and transliteration.
